Hey everyone! You know what !? I
shopped after almost 8 weeks, 55 days to be precise and I did not buy a whole
lot of things!
When I did that I bought the new
super,super affordable new lipsticks from the House of Revlon in their Street
Wear range. And I must say I am pretty impressed!
Keep reading to know why!
I am reviewing the Streetwear
Color Rich Ultramoist Lipstick in Chic Cappucino ( 14) today.
The best part about these
lipsticks is the price! These are for just 180 bucks!
Let’s get on with the review!
Color: - Chic cappuccino is a nice warm chocolate brown ( think Milk chocolate , not dark chocolate!
:P ) with abundant bronze shimmers
which in turn makes it look like a bronze brown shade. This color is a universally flattering shade. It has a nice metallic-y shine to it!
Packaging: - the lipstick comes in a fun, cartoon covered pack. The name of the cartoon character on
this pack is . The lipstick bullet stays a little out of the twist up and that
leads to marks on the bullet when you are not careful enough while closing the
lid.
This is the only thing that I do not like. I
like the preppy packaging. The name of the lipstick is written on the back of
the lipstick.
Pigmentation: - this particular shade is sheer and it is not exactly very build-able, but I don’t mind as the
color would be perfect for day wear and it covers slight pigmentation easily.
Longevity: - stays for a good 4+ hours and then fades away. It can
survive light snacking as it does not easily transfer.
Feel and texture: - the lipstick is not very creamy but not even
dry. It strikes a balance between the two. And application is easy because it
doesn’t tug. It starts getting slightly flaky though after 4 hours which
something that bothers me. But with lip balm underneath it, the flakiness can
be avoided.
My experience:-
Just three words, I like it very much! Yeah, because for 180 rupees
this is perfect option for day to day wear and for those on a budget like
college girls! The packaging, the longevity, the pretty color is really
impressive.
I’ll let you know this much that
I have a reputation of eating up lipsticks :P, I mean I cannot keep a lipstick
in place for more than an hour , if it is not a long wear lipstick, and this
stayed in place for me for so long! Be impressed!
I would highly recommend this! This is like the perfect budget
lipstick!
Price:- 180 INR
Quantity:- 3.8g
Rating:- 4/5
Apart from this lipstick there is
only one budget lipstick that I like, the fabulous fuchsia from Oriflame (read full review).
We are almost into December right
now and weather has stated too cool now, there already is a nippy feeling in
the morning that I love!
What seasons do you like the
most! I looove winters due to various reasons, I have enough reasons to hate
this season, but I choose to ignore those!
And with the weather cooling down
we all will tend towards darker shades, for everything red will be replaced by
maroon, mascara will be replaced by eyeliners and light shades of lipsticks
will be replaced darker , warmer shades and I think Chic cappuccino is a
perfect color for day or even nightwear during the winters!
Have you tried these lipsticks?
Or the nail polishes ??
