CORAL CRAZE

It is a beautiful coral color which is a mix of pink and orange - more pink I would say.

RED RUSH

This red can be best described as red with pink undertones and will compliment every skin tone.

THE ONE EXPRESS LIP CRAYON in RED RUSH

PURPLE HAZE

This color is perfect for fall/winter and I love it.It is a deep berry color with purple in it.

THE ONE EXPRESS LIP CRAYON in PURPLE HAZE

INDIGO DARE

As the name suggests the shade is those for people who dare and are experimental. It is a beautiful Indigo,essentially a mixture of blue & purple. I think it looks amazing on me to be honest but the color can be a personal choice for most.

THE ONE EXPRESS LIP CRAYON in INDIGO DARE

Packaging:

The crayons come in a jumbo pencil format as one can tell and has a transparent cap which makes the color visible from the top.The body of the lip crayon  is grey in color and bears the name of the variant on the tube itself.It is travel friendly and user friendly in my opinion, only one needs to be careful while closing the cap.

The lip crayon are smooth in texture and buttery and easily glide on the lips.The pointed edge of the crayon helps in outlining the lips and reaching the corners of the mouth easily.There is no scent to it and feels nice and comfortable on the lips. The matte lip trend is still here but I sometimes love these semi matte type of lipstick formulas as they do not dry my lips.The have no shimmer which is a big Yay! and makes your lips look fuller on application.

THE ONE EXPRESS LIP CRAYONS by ORIFLAME Review & Swatches

The lighter colors fade away quickly and the ones which are bright and vibrant do leave a stain behind when they fade and also disappear from the centre of the lips which kind of looks odd but one can always reapply I feel.Overall they last for 4 hours and in between meals. All the shades are perfect for Indian skin tones except Bubble Gum Pink but you can mix it with some other color to create a custom shade.If you follow Oriflame India on their Instagram they have shown how to use these to create fun lip looks i.e ombre lips or mixing two or more colors for fun. I leave that upto you how you may want to use it. To conclude I would say these are semi - matte, have good color pigment to them and the staying power is fairly good. These also make perfect gifting options, so what are you waiting for?? Go grab them while they are on offer.

MLWM Rating: 4.2/5

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel Review & Swatches (All Shades)

Hello everyone,

Today I bring forward an exciting new launch from Oriflame India and it is the newly launched The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel Range which is a one of its kind product and something different from the usual matte and liquid lipsticks I have been trying lately.Summer calls for bright lip colors and if you know me,you would know that I love bright lip colors,I would say brighter the better..Lol. So anyway I am going to share my thoughts on all the colors, the formula and what I think about them in this post.If interested to know more then please keep on reading...

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel Review & Swatches

Price: Rs. 699/- for 5ml product. But it on discount in the May 2017 catalogue at Rs. 489/- each

Ingredients:

POLYBUTENE, HYDROGENATED POLYISOBUTENE, OCTYLDODECANOL, ISOHEXADECANE, BIS-DIGLYCERYL POLYACYLADIPATE-2, ETHYLENE/PROPYLENE/STYRENE COPOLYMER, POLYETHYLENE, HYDROGENATED CASTOR OIL, BUTYLENE/ETHYLENE/STYRENE COPOLYMER, PARFUM, BHT, CI 77891, CI 45410, CI 15850, CI 45380, CI 42090

About the product:

Super-light liquid lipstick goes on like a gel, with an ultra-smooth plexigloss finish in 8 intense shades. Non-sticky, extreme colour coverage. Glides on easily for super-slick lips with perfect colour clarity. Conditioning formula keeps lips feeling soft. A definite head-turner.

Packaging:

The lip colors come in the same kind of packaging very like their matte mousse range.If you have not read that review you can check it out HERE The tube is slim and can stand on its own and will look great on your dressing table.The wand is silver in color and has 'The One' logo on it which looks luxurious yet cute. Coming to the wand it is flat which makes application easy on the centre of the lips but a little difficult in the corners of the mouth. Overall packaging is cute and decent and also travel friendly in my opinion.

Now let me take you through the 7 shades from their range:

Tangerine Tango is a light orange hue with a hint of peach to it. 

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel in TANGERINE TANGO

Sunset Burst is a beautiful red with pink undertones to it. 

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel in SUNSET BURST

Hot Flamingo is a beautiful everyday baby pink color

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel in HOT FLAMINGO

Malibu Blush is a beautiful coral color which is pink mixed with orange

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel in MALIBU BLUSH

Pink Mambo is a beautiful deep pink raspberry color

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel in PINK MAMBO

Magnetic Magenta is a magenta color like it says. It is light pink color with blue undertones which we say purple pink

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel in MAGNETIC MAGENTA

Purple Rumba is a stunning purple/aubergine hue in my opinion.

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel in PURPLE RUMBA

My review and thoughts:

These lip colors are certainly liquid lip colors as they claim but these are not matte which you may be used to and which are in trend right now. So over the years I have tried many lip glosses and they have all failed in the pigmentation department. Glosses which claimed to have good pigmentation have also failed.

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel Review & Swatches (same order as mentioned above)

So would I say the same about these?? Well absolutely not. Firstly the pigmentation is really good for a liquid lip color which does not have a matte formula.I could not find any glitter or shimmer in it which is another plus point in my opinion.It has an amazing fluid and light weight texture in my opinion. It spreads easily on the lips and the texture and formula is very smooth and moisturizing, you need to wear it to know what I am saying.It has a faint smell which is not bothersome in my opinion.

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel Review & Swatches

You would need to apply 2 coats if you have pigmented lips like mine also you need to be careful as it may tend to go outside the lips if applied incorrectly. All the colors are bright and beautiful and have a gorgeous finish to them, very apt for summers.The longevity is not that much because it is a glossy formula and may tend to easy wipe off once you eat or drink something, however they leave a lovely stain which I don't mind at all.Overall I think  The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel is a must try for the shade selection, formula and the way it performs.If you ignore the longevity it is an amazing product in my opinion ☺☺

MLWM Rating: 4.4/5

Oriflame The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel  come in 7 exciting shades which have an amazing fluid texture and gorgeous finish. A must try in my opinion.

So what do you think of the The ONE Lip Sensation Vinyl Gel?? Have you tried it? Do let me know in the comments section.

Until next time.. Take care xoxo

Revlon Cherish and Charm Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains Review, Photos and Swatches!

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains ($8.99) is a lip balm infused with a lightweight stain in a convenient retractable crayon.

These have been pretty popular in the beauty blogosphere over the past few months, and although I admittedly don't like giving into products that seem to be fads of the moment, I've read nothing but good things, so I had to give them a try.

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains are available in (12) shades: Honey, Crush, Darling, Cherish, Lovesick, Sweetheart, Smitten, Charm, Rendevous, Romantic, Precious and Adore.

I have two shades: Cherish, a light, cool-toned pink. The cool blue/purple undertones are so strong that when built, it looks rather purple on my lips. With a light wash, it's a pretty natural pink. The other color is Charm, a light, warm peachy nude.

The balms are very firm/waxy and keep their shape well. Even after several uses, they haven't placed much of a dent in the tip.

I would have never expected these balms to be moisturizing - you never really think of a product labeled as a "stain" to be anything but drying, but these are shockingly moisturizing on my chronic dry lips. I wouldn't use it to replace an actual lip balm, but they keep my lips moist and don't dry them out.

The pigmentation is very good. They are sheer, but very buildable. After the color has been on my lips a while, Cherish stays just about the same color and brightens just slightly. Charm darkens a little bit from a light nude to a light coral. If I wipe my lips off, Charm leaves an orange-red stain behind, which is something I really don't like about it. It's not exactly the look you want if you're going for a nude lip. Cherish leaves a bright pinkish-red stain behind.

After exfoliating my lips, I applied Charm and it seems to magnify every piece of dryness on my lips, that I didn't know existed. It gets much worse when the color is built as the color just looks uneven and it settles a bit odd on my lips. Cherish also doesn't apply as even as I'd like it to, but it's not as noticeable as Charm.

I don't see Cherish to be a shade I'll get much wear from. To me, it looks a bit cheap on my lips, and I'll most likely never wear it alone (maybe for mixing). I really like the way one layer of Cherish looks with a few coats of Charm on top. It creates a light, peach-pink shade that's perfect for every day.

After reading some reviews, I think I picked a couple of the most problematic shades from the range. I've heard much better things with the brighter pinks and red shades.

I love the fact that the balms are retractable - thank goodness! No need to hunt down a gigantic pencil sharpener.

They have a slight mint scent that reminds me of Altoids or mint dental floss, but I don't mind. The lasting power is pretty average. I don't find it particularly long lasting, but the stain from Cherish lingers around a bit.

The packaging is really cute. Revlon does pretty well with the aesthetic nature of their products, and these little sticks are probably as chic as a lip pencil could get. The sturdy plastic tubes are colored to match the color of the balm, and the silver part at the bottom twists the product up and down. I never understood retractable products that only twist up, so if you twist too much, you're just crap out of luck.

For a good comparison of the often correlated Clinique Chubby Stick and the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain, check out The Sunday Girl.

Overall, I'm not all that impressed with these, but like I said, I most likely picked the worse performing shades from the range. I might give one of the bright pinks a try and then call it quits.

What do you think of these?

The Round-Up
Pros:

• Easy to use
• Moisturizing - feel great on the lips
• Retractable, no sharpener needed
• Provides nice shiny color to the lips and a leaves a light stain behind

Cons:

• Both shades applied uneven
• Charm gives the appearance that it will be the perfect nude, but it morphs into a coral shade, so it's not ideal if you want the muted lip look.
• Charm leaves an orange stain on the lips, which I'm not too crazy about.

Price: $8.99, at your local drugstore. Prices will differ based on location (they are typically cheaper at Walmart and Target.) Look in your Sunday paper for $1 off coupon for Revlon lip products. Right now CVS has a sale going on that if you purchase (2) Revlon Lip products, you get $7 Extrabucks. If you have that $1 off coupon, you're on the road to good savings!

MAC Pink Pearl Pop Lipstick Review, Photos and Swatches!

MAC Pink Pearl Pop Lipstick

MAC Pink Pearl Pop Lipstick ($15) is described on the MAC website as a frosted mid-tonal pink. It's a very girly and subtly warm, vibrant pink, so if you're feeling like you want to wear something other than your average muted pink but don't want something very bright and in-your-face, Pink Pearl Pop is a great median. And despite what the description says, it's not frosty. The pigmentation is sheer, and buildable to medium coverage. It has a shiny balm-like finish.

I own many pinks, but I couldn't find a perfect dupe for Pink Pearl Pop. Revlon Perennial Pink Colorstay Mineral Lipglaze came the closest, as when I applied Pink Pearl Pop on my bottom lip and Perennial Pink on my top lip, I could hardly tell the difference, other than the lipgloss obviously being glossier. Pink Pearl Pop is a little more vibrant.

Pink Pearl Pop launched recently a couple months ago with the MAC Cremesheen + Pearl Collection, along with six other lipsticks and an array of Cremesheen Glasses. I had my eyes on several shades, but considering they are permanent products, I'm in no rush to get them all at once.

As with most Cremesheen formulas, Pink Pearl Pop feels moisturizing and comfortable on the lips.

Swatches were just not working in my favor today. It's really chilly outside, and as soon as the cold hit my body - instant goosebumps! From left to right: MAC Pink Pearl Pop, MAC Lovelorn, Revlon Strawberry Shortcake Lip Butter, MAC Viva Glam Nicki and Revlon Perennial Pink Mineral Lipglaze.

What I find irritating about Cremesheen Lipsticks in general is that I always have to apply them with caution because it poses a few problems: Because of the softer formula (which I don't even find that soft), the lipstick bullet might move (pushed forward or backward slightly) and the bullet will scrape against the inside of the tube each time the lipstick is twisted. Which will lead to the base of the lipstick becoming loose and possibly breaking off if you aren't careful. Lastly, it melts easily. I've only used this lipstick a couple of times, and it's already scraping against the inside of the tube.

I do love the Cremesheen formula though, and it never stops me from purchasing them.

I really like this lipstick and I know it will be one of my go-to shades that will often be kept in my bag.

If you're a pink lover like me, it's a fun shade to have.

The Round-Up

Pros:

• A very wearable shade of vibrant pink - because of it's sheerness, it gives off a balm-stain type look
• Feels good on the lips - lightweight and non-drying
• A natural shiny finish
• Brightens up my complexion

Cons:

• Because you have to pile on the color for a solid medium coverage and the lipstick is very firm and sheer, after a couple of uses, the lipstick bullet is already brushing against the inside of the tube.
• I wish this particular was a little creamier. The consistency is very thin - it's almost like a lip balm rather a lipstick with a couple of swipes.
• Wear time could be better. I get a couple of hours.

Price: $15, MAC.

NYX Irish Coffee Jumbo Lip Pencil Review, Photos and Swatches!

NYX Irish Coffee Jumbo Lip Pencil

NYX Irish Coffee Jumbo Lip Pencil ($4.50) is a peachy-pink nude lip liner and lipstick all-in-one. It's the consistency of a creamy lipstick, but because of the small tip, you can apply it precisely to the edges of your lips without ending up with a smeary pout. This is particularly helpful with the darker shades that are more noticeable.

The color reminds me a little bit of NYX Orange Soda or similar peachy-pink, light cream shades. Since it's such a light shade, I find it works best when applied in a few light layers over a moisturizing lip balm or in conjunction with a clear or sheer gloss to sheer out the color and help it sit better on the lips. I wouldn't wear this alone, as when there isn't anything else on my lips, it accentuates dryness and can look uneven (unless I apply one sheer layer).

It's comfortable on the lips, and is similar in texture to the NYX Round Lipsticks. They are thin and have a glossy feel to them and a similar shiny finish. I don't find them particularly drying.

The tip doesn't wear down too quick, which is a good thing. I've had some lip pencils that wear down very quickly, and it's a pain having to sharpen all of the time.

Swatch of NYX Irish Coffee Jumbo Lip Pencil

NYX Irish Coffee on my lips (I applied a layer of clear lip gloss first, so it's a bit shinier than usual)

The lasting power is pretty standard - maybe a couple of hours on it's own, a bit longer when mixed with a gloss (I like using MAC Clear Lipglass).

Overall, not bad. I'd be willing to try other shades if I come across any that are appealing. There are thirty shades in total, so there should be something for everyone. ;) 

Have you tried these? What'd you think?

The Round-Up
Pros:

• Easy to apply
• Pigmented color
• Lightweight and comfortable on the lips
• Shiny finish
• Inexpensive
• Cruelty-free

Cons:

• This shade in particular accentuates dryness and can look uneven on the lips.
• Isn't retractable, so you'll have to invest in a pencil sharpener for large pencils.
• Due to it's glossy texture, the packaging can get messy (which is no big deal, but it's not very pretty.)

Price: $4.50, NYX, Ulta and Cherry Culture.

NYX Hippie Chic Matte Lipstick Review, Photos and Swatches!

NYX Hippie Chic Matte Lipstick

NYX Hippie Chic Matte Lipstick ($5.99) is a bright pastel flamingo pink with a matte finish. If any of you are familiar with NYX Orange Soda, it reminds me of a pink version of it. Or, a lighter version of Nars Bolero Velvet Matte Lip Pencil.

I don't have any experience with NYX Matte Lipsticks (I've only used the Round Lipsticks) and although I tend to steer away from matte formulas, I really liked some of the colors of the matte lipstick range.

The problem is - when pale lip colors have a matte finish (especially when they are very pigmented), they can have the tendency to apply streaky and look chalky on the lips, unless it's a sheer, moisturizing formula.

When wearing Hippie Chic I have to make sure to moisturize and exfoliate my lips, so they are completely free of dryness and flakes. Dryness becomes very noticeable with this lipstick. Even after my lips are completely free of dryness, the color still manages to look dry on my lips unless I apply a layer of lip balm as a base.

To really get this lipstick to work, I like applying a good coat of Smith's Rosebud Salve (my favorite lip balm - has a glossy finish) and applying a few coats of Hippie Chic over top. I additionally like to apply a coat of lipgloss on top, because Hippie Chic has the tendency to hang out in the lip lines.

Hippie Chic is a super pretty color, so if you're willing to work around the not-so-great formula, it might be worth giving a shot. It could also work as a good mixing shade (as MAC Myth is a popular shade to tone down other lipsticks).

For matte lipsticks, I highly prefer Wet n Wild Mega Last Matte Lipsticks - and they are cheaper!

NYX Hippie Chic on my lips.

I have one more shade I'm going to review, but I don't think I'll purchase any other lipsticks from this line. I'll stick to their Round Lipsticks.

The Round-Up 

Pros:

• Pigmented
• Lightweight formula
• Great colors to choose from
• Inexpensive

Cons:

• Accentuates dryness
• Can be drying when worn alone
• Can look chalky if too much is applied

Price: $5.99, Ulta, NYX & Cherry Culture. (Currently NYX is 40% off at ULTA)

Edward Bess Secret Desire Ultra Slick Lipstick Review, Photos and Swatches!

Edward Bess Secret Desire Lipstick

Edward Bess Secret Desire Lipstick ($32) is a beautiful, creamy natural peachy-pink. Although it looks rather peach in the tube (almost like Nars Belle De Jour) it's most certainly pink. It's soft, neutral and perfect for every day. Many like describing it as a "my lips but better shade, and for light skin tones it is! For medium -dark skin tones it'd work great as a nude.

I've never tried any other Edward Bess Lipsticks, so I'm not sure if the overall performance of the line can be determined by only one shade, but Secret Desire is very creamy, yet a bit slippery - kind of like a YSL Rouge Volupte, but not as drying and longer-lasting. Secret Desire has medium to opaque coverage and a lustrous finish. Even after several layers, the lipstick still manages to feel thin and so lightweight on my lips. It's an overall fantastic formula.

It has a light, sweet fruity smell which I can smell each time I apply it, which I've read is the scent of wild figs. I absolutely love the smell.

A close-up of my lips (on MAC NC30 skin tone)

Comparisons from left to right: Edward Bess Secret Desire, MAC Supreme Style Sheen Supreme, MAC Bare Again Sheen Supreme, MAC Shygirl Lipstick, NYX Pumpkin Pie Round Lipstick and MAC Hue Lipstick. From the shades swatched, it's the most similar to MAC Supreme Style, although Supreme style has a bit of a frosty sheen and is slightly rosier. It's also somewhat similar to MAC Bare Again, but Secret Desire is slightly more pink.

To see swatches of the full line-up of the Edward Bess Slick Lipsticks, check out Karlasugar.

The price point is right up there with other luxury brands, but I noticed that several shades are available on eBay and Strawberrynet for a lower price.

The Round-Up

Pros:

• Very silky and creamy 
• Applies evenly
• Good pigmentation - medium to full coverage
• Feels smooth on the lips
• Feels featherweight on the lips even after several layers
• Longer lasting than other glossy lipsticks
• Nice packaging - sleek, weighty metal tube

Cons:

• Although it's a moisturizing formula, for those with frequent dry lips, this might not provide enough moisture for you. Applying a lip balm prior is always a must for me. 
• Edward Bess products have to be purchased online (unless you live near the couple of locations in NY and CA) and there aren't many reviews/swatches out there for those who rely on beauty blogs for photos.

Price: $32, Sephora, Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, Zuneta online. For a list of in-store locations click here.
