BUBBLE GUM PINK

This shade is a very light pink color and will not suit our Indian skin tones in my opinion.You can use it to lighten other lipsticks.

THE ONE EXPRESS LIP CRAYON in BUBBLE GUM PINK

CORAL CRAZE

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

THE ONE EXPRESS LIP CRAYON in CORAL CRAZE

FUCHSIA FANTASY

It is a bright pink color with blue undertones and brightens my complexion. One of my favorites.

THE ONE EXPRESS LIP CRAYON in FUCHSIA FANTASY

ORANGE CRUSH

This is a true orange color and brightens up the complexion. It will suit every skin tone in my opinion unless you do not like orange lipsticks.

THE ONE EXPRESS LIP CRAYON in ORANGE CRUSH

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 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

So what do you think of Oriflame's THE ONE EXPRESS LIP CRAYONS?? Aren't they fun?? Would you try it or already have please let me know in the comments section.

Wishing all of my readers and followers a very Happy Diwali & Prosperous New Year 2017 ♥♥

Until we meet again... Take care xoxo

Oriflame The ONE 5 - in - 1 Wonder Lash Waterproof Mascara Review

Hello everyone,

It has been a while since I reviewed a mascara because as I have always mentioned in my previous posts and in my YouTube videos that I am not a mascara junkie and do not always collect them from every other brand in the market. But being a beauty blogger and Youtuber I need to try some of the brands in the market if possible to let you know what I think of them, right?? So if you have been following me you would know that I love Oriflame products and do speak about their new launches on my blog you can read those posts HERE Today I shall be reviewing The ONE 5 - in - 1 Wonder Lash Waterproof Mascara which is a part of the The ONE collection of which I have reviewed tonnes of products.

Oriflame The ONE 5 - in - 1 Wonder Lash Waterproof Mascara Review

Oriflame The ONE 5 - in - 1 Wonder Lash Waterproof Mascara Review

Coming to the mascara the formula is not very wet nor dry perfect and in between I would say. The wand is interesting and something different which helps in curving and coating the lashes properly. It will curl your lashes well but like I always have said without using an eyelash curler the lashes would not look shockingly different and I always make sure to curl my lashes. It is waterproof which I really like and look for in a mascara so I am happy in that department. Overall I have been loving this mascara as 2 coats of it make my lashes look fuller after application. Also I did not experience flaking which is good and something I am pleased with. I would recommend this to everyone because it is affordable, waterproof and does the job well.

MLWM Rating:4.5/5

I hope this review was helpful and informative. Have you tried this mascara from Oriflame yet? or any other please let me know in the comments section.

Until next time.. Take care xoxo

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

Oriflame The ONE IlluSkin Face Primer Rreview

Hello everyone,

Today I shall be reviewing Oriflame The One  Illuskin Face Primer which I have had with me since a long time and wanted to review on my blog.Makeup primers are a must if you want a smooth base for you foundation/BB cream and if you want it to last as well.I was an alien to the concept of primer until I became a beauty blogger to be honest. So anyway if you wish to know more about this product and my thoughts on it then please keep on reading...

Oriflame The ONE IlluSkin Face Primer Rreview

Price:  Rs.649/- for 30 ml  Available online HERE

Ingredients:

AQUA, CYCLOPENTASILOXANE, CYCLOHEXASILOXANE, ISONONYL ISONONANOATE, CAPRYLYL METHICONE, MICA, POLYGLYCERYL-4 ISOSTEARATE, BUTYLENE GLYCOL, CETYL PEG/PPG-10/1 DIMETHICONE, HEXYL LAURATE, POLYETHYLENE, TITANIUM DIOXIDE, TALC, METHYL METHACRYLATE CROSSPOLYMER, BIS-PEG/PPG-14/14 DIMETHICONE, SODIUM CHLORIDE, SILICA, IMIDAZOLIDINYL UREA, CAPRYLYL GLYCOL, HYDROGENATED CASTOR OIL, METHYLPARABEN, PROPYLPARABEN, PARFUM, DIMETHICONE, DISODIUM EDTA, ALUMINA, TRIETHOXYCAPRYLYLSILANE, PENTAERYTHRITYL TETRA-DI-T-BUTYL HYDROXYHYDROCINNAMATE, CI 77891

Description by the brand:

Create the perfect canvas for makeup with this tone-enhancing face primer. Evens out skin tone, extends the wear of your foundation and minimizes the appearance of pores*. With HaloLight Technology™ for a subtle healthy glow.

Oriflame The ONE IlluSkin Face Primer Rreview

The primer comes in a white and purple opaque tube which has a screw cap to it. There is basic information printed on it. I wish they had a flip cap to be honest. Also there is a chance of the product accumulating on the surface of where the product comes off. It is still travel and user friendly I feel.

Oriflame The ONE IlluSkin Face Primer Rreview

Oriflame The ONE IlluSkin Face Primer Rreview

The primer is white in color and has a cream like consistency. It does have fragrance to it which is ok in my opinion. As I said before primers need to be applied before makeup to build a smooth canvas, fill pores and provide tackiness for the base product to adhere to the skin. The primer acts as a barrier between the skin and the foundation. It sounds more like a moisturizer kind of formula in my opinion. Post application of primer and foundation you will get a dewy and healthy glow which I like but not really because this primer is meant for normal to dry skin and I do have oily to combination skin.It does help the makeup to stay longer on the face but my nose and T zone get very oily hence I have to use a powder. Personally I would use this in winters as it is quite emollient for my oily skin. It does not minimize the appearance of pores or fills them. So I can easily conclude that this one is meant for dry and normal and not oily skin like mine.If you have dry skin you can go for this one.

MLWM Rating: 4/5

So have you tried Oriflame The ONE IlluSkin Face Primer before? Do let me know your thoughts in the comments section.

The One Smokey Eyeshadow Pencils by Oriflame - Review, Swatches & EOTD

Hello everyone,

I am going to talk about a new launch from Oriflame - The One Smokey Eyeshadow Pencils.These are a new launch this month in the Oriflame India catalogue. If you have read my previous posts you would know that Oriflame is celebrating its 50th global anniversary. I have been using their products even before I got into the blogging world and have been associated as a blogger with Oriflame since 3 years now. I love Oriflame makeup and own most of it, they have some really good products. So I got to try this product and after using them I am here to tell you what I think of them. Please read on to know more...

The One Smokey Eyeshadow Pencils by Oriflame - Review, Swatches & EOTD

Price: Rs.449/- for both. Available at introductory discount of Rs.335/- in March 2017 catalogue.

Ingredients:

ETHYLHEXYL PALMITATE, SILICA, CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE, HYDROGENATED POLYCYCLOPENTADIENE, CERA MICROCRISTALLINA, POLYETHYLENE, SYNTHETIC FLUORPHLOGOPITE, POLYETHYLENE TEREPHTHALATE, DICALCIUM PHOSPHATE, CAPRYLYL GLYCOL, TRIETHOXYCAPRYLYLSILANE, TOCOPHERYL ACETATE, ETHYLHEXYLGLYCERIN, POLYURETHANE-11, TIN OXIDE, CI 77499, CI 77891, CI 77000, CI 77492

About the product:
Create smokey effects with soft, deep shades. Creamy formula with shimmering, light reflecting pearls that glides on easily with the retractable pencil. Smudge, blend, and shadow to create the enticing look that everyone wants.

Packaging:
Both the eyeshadow pencils come in a jumbo stick format.Strangely the color of the body looks identical but colors are not same when swatched - they are different. Shade name is mentioned at the bottom so you will have to check that. The really good thing about these pencils is that they come in a twist up version, so no sharpening or product wastage.Yay!! They are travel and user friendly.

The One Smokey Eyeshadow Pencils by Oriflame - Review, Swatches & EOTD
Top to bottom: Glitter Black, Jet Black

The Smokey eyeshadow pencils come in 2 variants:
Jet Black: It is a creamy and deep black color eyeshadow stick. I could not spot shimmer in this one.


Glitter Black: This pencil looks more of a greyish black to me and is my favourite among the two. It has glitter which I like to be honest and will look great on you if you are attending an evening party or function.

The One Smokey Eyeshadow Pencils by Oriflame - Review, Swatches & EOTD

The pencils are creamy and glide smoothly on the eyelids.The pigmentation is good and it easily spreads on the eyelids.If you are a makeup enthusiast you would know smokey eyes have been in trend ever since. I love smokey eyes too and generally use any pencil I may have to achieve it. I don't own any good quality ones yet so this is my first ever experience.

The One Smokey Eyeshadow Pencils by Oriflame - Review, Swatches & EOTD

The One Smokey Eyeshadow Pencils by Oriflame - Review, Swatches & EOTD

So coming to the pencil, they glide on smoothly on the eyelids.They are creamy and can be easily blended and smoked out. Now I do have hooded/folded eyelids and hence any product easily creases and this one did too but these ones are great lasting wise. I have used other pencils like these from different brands and they were horrible in my opinion. This one seems much better and I would suggest using a translucent loose powder to set it or use a black/grey eyeshadow whichever is applicable over it to set it.Overall I love these smokey eyeshadow pencils and would recommend them to those who love doing smokey eyes.I haven't shared a picture of me wearing it on my eyes, will try and do so on my Snapchat and Instagram soon make sure you follow me there ☺☺
