PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Here's a detailed list of products that are a part of the giveaway and yes the rules to participate in the giveaway will follow that :)
1. Colorbar Velvet Matte Lipstick in Peach Tango: It is no new news that I love
Colorbar Velvet Matte Lipsticks and own a variety of shades in thsi range. They are
matte lipsticks but are still very moisturizing and not at all drying. They stay on for a
very long duration and well most of the shades in this range suit the Indian Skin tone
to the tee...
I have reviewed the following Colorbar Velvet Matte Lipsticks as of now:
2. Colorbar Nail Lacquer in Extrovert: Colorbar's Nail Lacquers are yet another of my
favorite. They stay on for long, give really good coverage to the nails and the range has
a huge variety of shades to choose from :)
I have reviewed/used the following Colorbar Nail Lacquers till now:
3. Colorbar Blush in Plum Brown: This is my HG blush and is so flattering to the
Indian skin tone that it is a must have blush for everyone. Yes it could be a bit too
dark for people with skintones below NC20 though!
It is a finely milled blush, stays for long and does not contain nay shimmer/glitter.
I have reviewed it here:
4. Faces Cosmetics Kajal: This is like my most recent purchase and this is one kajal
purchase that I just do not regret. It has an intense color payoff, is buildable, smudges
very little and is waterproof. I have been personally using it since the past few days.
I have reviewed it here:
5. Faces Cosmetics Sparkle Dust in Shade 02 Gold: This is like my most favorite
golden eye shadow. I had bought it to do my wedding make-up and it has become an
essential part of my make-up case especially when I get ready for some wedding
functions or festivals. It has the right amount of sparkle, blends easily, does not fade
away and stays for a long time.
I have reviewed it here:
6. Faces Cosmetics Eye Shadow brushes: I have been using Faces shadow brushes
since a long time now and till date I have never had the opportunity to complain even
once. The bristles are soft, do not shed and do their work extremely well. Basically,
there are three favorite Faces eye-shadow brushes of mine but there were only two of
them available as of now :(
I haven't yet reviewd these brushes, but I will review them for sure in a couple of days :)
7. Maybelline Express Finish Nail Polish in Pearly Pastel
Ok, this is one product that I don't own but with the express finish and fasr drying
claim and a pretty candyfloss color how wrong can you actually get? :) The shade
Pearly Pastel is so pretty and so sheer that it would look beautiful on its own as well
as a top coat over a darker shade :) Maybe you could send in a review to
isimplylovemakeup ;)
8. Maybelline Colorsensational Moisture Extreme Lipsticks in Chestnut
The Colorsensastion Moisture extreme lippies from Maybelline don't really need any
introduction cause they are those rare lippies that are creamy, moisturizing, highly
pigmented and have a pretty decent staying power. These lippies are a staple in
everyone's vanities and are "go-to" lipsticks for many :) I haven't yet reviewed my
collection of moisture extreme lipsticks but I will surely do one soon :)
9. Oriflame Clickit Eye Liner Duo in Brown and Black: The moment I came across
this concept, I was hooked. It is a dual ended stick, with black eye liner at one end
and a brown one on the other. The highlight of the product is the applicator brush,
which is thin and sturdy and makes making precise lines a breeze. The liquids are
smudge proof but not waterproof and have very intense pigmentation. I have not
reviewed this product on my blog.
10. Oriflame Clickit Lip Gloss/Stain Duo: Red stain and Raspberry gloss
This again is in the dual ended stick form with a red lip stain on one end and a pink
Raspberry gloss on the other :) It's a very convenient combo and I especially love the
red stain. It is an orange based red that smells and tastes yummy sweet. The stain
stays on for quite sometime and I do plan on reviewing it
