My Take on Lotus Herbals Pure Colors Lipstick Pink Blush:

I just cannot do without a lipstick. I’m addicted to it. I’m not a lip gloss person as lip glosses do not stay on long and are sticky. Also I don’t need that extra shine on my lips as my facial skin is super oily (that’s enough of shine!). So I prefer matte or satin finish lipsticks. Here is a review on a shade which will be loved by all and is personally by favorite.

The lipstick case is gold and beige in colour. The packaging is okay. Not great though. The gold colour of the inner tube fades away after some time. The cap shuts tightly and is thus travel friendly.

The lipstick has a faint fragrance which is not bothersome at all. It goes away soon after application.

Pink Blush is a warm pink colour with mauve undertones. It does look very dark in the tube, but on the lips it shows up as a medium toned lipstick. It glides on smoothly. Everyone loves such lipsticks which are smooth to apply. It has no shimmers and the finish is somewhat matte and slightly glossy. This shade is very pigmented. Just two swipes will give you opaque coverage and hides pigmentation. It may show up slightly different on pigmented lips. I prefer applying a lip balm underneath as it is a bit drying but you won’t be bothered much about the drying part.

It stays put on my lips for around 3 hours and after that fades away evenly and leaves behind a pinkish tint. Considering the affordable price, the staying power is okay. I like the fact that it doesn’t settle in fine lines and doesn’t bleed at all. I always prefer using a lip liner.

This shade will suit everyone from fair skinned to dusky skinned. You don’t have to worry about this shade not suiting you. This is a very affordable product and perfect for daily use. Office goers can wear this shade without any worries (definitely not a loud shade). In fact anyone can pull it off! Right from teenagers to middle aged ladies.

I apply a light coat of foundation on my lips to act as a base. This helps to even out the color  Always remember to remove the excess color from your lips. Blot your lips with a tissue to absorb the excess colour and apply a second layer of the lipstick. Your lipstick will stay on longer if you fill the whole lip with a light lip liner. Darker lip liner will darken the look of your lipstick.

PROS of Lotus Herbals Pure Colors Lipstick Pink Blush:

  • Affordable
  • Very pigmented
  • Staying power is around 3 hours
  • Doesn’t settle in fine lines
  • 100% vegetarian
  • Doesn’t bleed
  • This shade will suit all skin tones
  • No shimmers
  • Available in 22 shades to choose from
  • Travel friendly packaging

CONS of Lotus Herbals Pure Colors Lipstick Pink Blush:

  • Packaging can be improved
  • Cannot identify the shade easily if you have many lipsticks. You have to read the label at the bottom every time.

MABH Rating: 4/5

Do I Recommend Lotus Herbals Pure Colors Lipstick Pink Blush?:

Yes! This shade is for all. There is no harm in trying this one. Office goers will love this shade for everyday use. I also own Lotus Herbals Pure Color Lipstick in Red rose Shade which is another lovely shade that can be worn daily.

Would I Repurchase Lotus Herbals Pure Colors Lipstick Pink Blush?:

Not sure, as it will last long and I would like to try out other shades from this range.

Lotus Licorice Skin Whitening Soap for Facial Tan Removal?: MABH RBQ

MABH Reader Beauty Query

Hi Lancy,

This is Latha Keerthana.. I just now visited your blog. Your advises and suggestions are really great. How are you able to do such work like an expert at this younger age? Anyway very great you are!

Coming to my query, I used to have a healthy pale complexion but now I lost it due to traveling in bus to college 40km frm my hometown. I came to know that Lotus Licorice Skin Whitening Soap is good for tanned skin.  But then I got to know from a friend of mine that is should be used on body and not on the face. Can I use it on face? If not, please suggest me a good herbal soap for tanned facial skin. Thank you.

Query Resolved:

Hello Latha, Welcome to MABH and Thanks a lot for your kind appreciation! 🙂

You have asked whether you can use the Lotus Herbals Licorice Skin Whitening Soap on your facial skin or not. The main reason that one should not use soap bar on facial skin is that, it may contain more chemicals than a face wash; and hence it might excessively dry out the delicate facial skin. You might be knowing already that facial skin is very delicate when compared to the body skin so when it comes to facial tan removal, a good tan removing face pack or even a face wash might help.
I have used this Licorice whitening soap from Lotus Herbals brand and it is really a very good product to say. Though it doesn’t whiten skin, it removes tan effectively with regular usage but I doubt whether it would suit your facial skin or not. For body skin, I do highly recommend it for you. Give a try if you have an oily facial skin; (As dry skin may get even drier with soap usage) if you don’t experience any irritations on the skin after usage, you can continue with this soap for sometime and check whether it removes your facial tan or not. The fragrance of this soap is divine! (I personally love it very much)
And for facial tan removal, I suggest using Nature Essence Lacto Tan Clear at least twice a week. This is my current HG face pack (or what is it? Not sure) to get rid of unwanted tans and ugly marks. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and tidbits.

My Experience:

Packaging: Lotus Herbals Berryscrub comes in a soft press able plastic tube which is partially see-through. The tube has a flip cap with a hole for the product to run out. The details about the product and brand are printed on the top side of the tube body with an attractive shiny finish.

Colour, Consistency & Fragrance: The color of the scrub product is transparent base with brown-orange mixed type of scrubbing particles. The base is like a gel.
The consistency is very thin and runny. You tilt the tube, all the product inside the tube runs from one side to another. Though the base looks like a gel, it is very watery.
Lotus Herbals Berryscrub Strawberry & Aloe Vera Exfoliating Face Wash Review
The fragrance of the product is somewhere in between mild to strong. The name of the scrub says Strawberry and Aloe vera, forget aloe vera, there is no smell of strawberry too on my smelling senses. There is some amount of sour fruity scent indicating the lemon and orange extracts being present.
How it works: Lotus Herbals Berryscrub Face Wash lathers minimum. The scrub granules are of mixed shape and sharpness. There are some which are a little big than needed for face scrubbing and they are sharp too. These scrub the face a little more that needed. The package says All Skin Types; definitely no, the scrub is a little harsh on the dry skin. Also it is not suitable during winter for removing the dead skin flakes. This is a good product for oily skin. My skin felt more dry and stretchy after washing with this product.
But, I have found another way of using this product, as a body scrub. This gives a very good massaging sensation when rubbed on the body. You can skip your usual body wash the day you introduce this Lotus scrub. It scrubs and washes too very well. The much needed scrubbing for heels, elbow, knee joint, and back of the neck is done by Lotus Herbals Berryscrub Face Wash.

PROS:

  • Easy handling tube package with flip cap.
  • See though tube.
  • Mixed type of scrub.
  • Gel based.
  • Available at good price.
  • Makes a very good body scrub.
  • Removes dead cells and leaves the skin soft when used as a body scrub.

CONS:

  • Not a good face scrub.
  • There are some harsh scrub particles which are not suitable for face scrubbing.
  • Suitable for oily skin, not good for dry skin.
Rating: 3/5
Do I Recommend?: Yes. Though not a perfect face scrub, it is a perfect body scrub.
Would I Repurchase ?: Yes. I am on my third tube.
