Avon Valentine Color Bliss Lipstick Fresh Rose Review

by Swathika

Well, when almost everyone of you here started your lipstick craze with the traditional lipsticks from your mothers kitty, I started my lipstick craze with Avon Simply Pretty lipsticks. These are super pretty and super affordable to own as many as you want in your vanity table. It made me go gaga over this range and I am still ready to own every single shade from this. wokay, except browns 😀

Product Description:

Enjoy medium to full color while giving your lips extra moisturizing care! Now with added moisturizing complex, a blend of nourishing natural ingredients, that protects lips while keeping it soft, supple and moisturized. Feels light and comfortable on lips.”

Price and Quantity:

Rs.169 for one lipstick or Rs.199 for 2, Rs.119 for 1 (mostly comes in offer like this), 4 ml

Shelf Life:

My Take on Avon Valentine Color Bliss Lipstick Fresh Rose:

To start with, I simply love its packaging. Though it is made up of plastic, it doesn’t look cheap. It is quite sturdy. It looks very cute in a bright magenta (or is it purple?) packaging with a light pink band in between.

The valentine shades are limited editions and the lipstick bullet comes with LOVE embossed on it. That makes it super cute to look at. The shade ‘Fresh Rose’ is a bright pink that can perk up your complexion instantly. It is one shade that you can wear anytime, anywhere. Be in daytime or nighttime, this shade will rock everywhere because of the freshness it adds to the face. It will suit all skin tones from fair to dusky.

Coming to the texture, it actually glides on the lips. No tugging or pulling on the lips. Though it is creamy it is better to use a lip balm under the lipstick. This shade is insanely pigmented, just one swipe can cover pigmented lips. The staying power is just awesome of maximum 5-6 hrs, after which it leaves a soft pink tint. Aww, awsomeness for the price 😀

My Take on Lakme Enrich Satin Lipstick Shade 129:

The packaging is just the same as it was years back during my childhood. It is packed in a plastic container. Its packaging is sturdy and its travel friendly. The package doesn’t show the shade from outside at all. So you need to open the cap and check the shade which isn’t possible always. On using it for long time, the cap may become loose slowly. I think they should change the package.

The shade 129 is simply super. I mean it is such a color that everyone can easily carry. I am a beginner at makeup and as soon as I saw this just fell in love with this shade. It is something like a mixture of pink, brown and peachy color. It shows dark in color as if it is a brown shade in the tube but when applied, it shows the peachy pink with slight brown undertone.

So you can’t judge the shade by just looking at the tube anyways. This is the shade everyone should have. This can be used on daily basis for simple look. It is the perfect shade for college and office goers. This shade simply suits all skin tones. Coming to the texture, this lipstick is smooth and creamy. It glides easily on the lips and a single swipe is just enough due to its pigmentation. It gives semi matte finish is going to make your lips look fuller.

So you need not apply any gloss on the lipstick coat. It moisturizes and doesn’t dry out the lips at all which I prefer the most. This stays on lips up to 5 hours if you don’t take any food or drink. Else you need touch ups. Also this lipstick is transferable. It easily transfers to the glass. Also don’t bite your lips. It may transfer to your teeth as well. Plus this lipstick seems to have sun protection. So go ahead. The lipstick seems to be so creamy so while applying, very light pressure should be applied to avoid breakage.

Overall I think this range is worth a try and coming to the shade it’s a must for all the beauties. And coming to the price it’s worth the price.

Why I like this Lipstick?:

Available both online and offline
Affordable
Creamy texture
Matte finish
Moisturizes lips
Pigmented
Light on lips
Suitable to all skin tones
Stays for around 5 hours (Ok not that bad)
Sun protection is available
So many shades available
Shade is suitable for office and college wear

Why I don’t like this Lipstick?:

Packaging should be improved
Doesn’t have the shade indicator
No ingredient list
Easily transferable
After meals, you need touch ups

MABH Rating: 4.5/5 (For the shade)

Will I Recommend?:

A big yes. It is good for daily use specially office and college use. Also if you are comfortable with the staying power and its transfer-ability, you can definitely try it out.

Revlon Colorburst Chocolate Lipstick Review

Hi my friends!
Today I am going to review a lip color that came as a gift to me a while ago. This is a cool brown shade called Revlon Color Burst Lipstick in Shade 60 Chocolate.

Product Description:

Instant burst of rich, true color with a feather light feel
Elasticolor™ technology provides immediate color release and hugs lips with a burst of weightless color that feels like a second skin

Price and Quantity:

Rs. 610 for 3.7 grams

My Take on Revlon Colorburst Chocolate Lipstick:

I like the packaging since it looks classy and sophisticated. It comes in a matte black case which has crisscross dents and the brand name is written across the center. There is a sticker at the bottom of the lipstick with the shade name and number on it. The lid snaps shut with a click and the lipstick can be easily carried around in a makeup bag.

This is a gorgeous chocolate brown shade which can be described as a chocolate color with a subtle hint of plum when worn on the lips. It has no shimmers or glitter and it gives a glossy finish on application. This lip color is highly pigmented and can be ideal for party or festive wear. For daily use, one swipe will do. The intensity is build-able. This shade would suit all Indian skin tones as it is a very classic color. It gives a beautiful definition to the lips.

The texture is very smooth, soft & creamy yet it doesn’t break or melt off. You can apply it directly or use a lip brush. It glides smoothly and effortlessly on lips and it is also moisturizing. I usually use a lip balm before applying a lipstick. There was no flaking problem with this lip color otherwise too. The lip color is not greasy, patchy or heavy but is very light on my lips. It gives an even finish to the lips and doesn’t accentuate the fine lines. Pigmentation in lips will be covered well. A prerequisite for using any lip stick is exfoliation. Otherwise any lip color will look ghastly.

The staying power is 4-5 hours on my lips with a little eating and drinking. It transfers easily on to cups. It wears off evenly but leaves a mild tint on the lips. It can easily removed too and doesn’t create a mess.
