Hello Girlies, J
Hope everyone is doing fine. I was actually surprised with
the Lip color Shades which Lakme and Elle18 have recently launched. They have
actually come in action past few months. There was a time when Lakme was
commonly available, whenever I used to go for shopping, I used to just get
Lakme ONLY ever since new brands have taken over Indian market they have lost
their attention. Good they are back in action. Even I have not got much of
Lakme but recently I got two Elle18 Lippies out of which I
am gonna review one today.
I had always been using Neutrals/Pinks/Corals on my lips but
never tried such a bright color. I bought this because Elle18 products are
easily available + they are good quality & of course affordable as well.
My Shade today is Elle18 Color Pops - Roasty Red 15
What Elle18 Claims:
Elle18 is a color cosmetics range launched in 1998.
Elle18 Color Bombs is an exciting and funky range of color cosmetics and
has been designed for young trendy girls. The range designed in cool shapes has
explosively vibrant colors for lips, nails and eyes. The products are packed
with the goodness of Cocoa butter, Jojoba Oil, Rose Water and
Almonds.
Elle18 Color Pops - Roasty Red 15 Details
A blast of color with the punch of cocoa. The intense moisturizing core in the center protects and cares for your lips.
My Opinion:
The formula of Elle18 Color Pops - Roasty Red is very creamy and moisturizing because of the balm
built-in inside the stick. The color is Red with orange undertone. It has no
shine but due to the balm it appears a glossy finish. It has a sweet smell,
which really doesn't bother me since it goes off in some time.
Normally, I don’t like wearing bright or dark lip shades, I like to keep myself
a bit on a natural side. The packaging reminds me of Mac Lippies.
It glides smoothly on the lips and doesn't settle
between the cracks, but it leaves a stain behind.
The Lasting power is just of couple of hours but good for a
product so cheap and branded too, I am sort of okay with the texture and the
whole thing, not actually in my favorites.
I Remember, I used to buy these when I was in college, at
that time the packaging was something in Pink but the formula used was almost
the same. This really is best option for college goers because it’s quite
affordable and it has a variety of shades.
Price: Got
it from India for Rs 100 /-
Quantity: 4.3
ML
For proper defining of the lips I have used a lip liner from
Revlon color stay in the shade Red.

in high end.
