Lotus Herbals Pure Colour Moisturizing Lipstick Red Rose Review

Previously I previewed the Lotus Herbals Gorgeous Diva kit here and today we are going to see a review about the Lotus Herbals Pure Colour Moisturizing Lip stick in Red Rose shade which was one among the product in the diva kit I received :) I received a colourDEW nail enamel and a natural blend swift makeup tube too along with this lipstick, so totally three were in the kit. I will be reviewing the other two sooner and now comes the lipstick review.

My Views and Ratings

Packaging

Lotus Herbals Pure Colour Moisturizing Lipstick - RED ROSE
 The lipstick comes in a smooth edged cute and feminine rectangular tube. The tube looks very classy with the golden shade and sturdy enough to travel safely. The lipstick should be taken out with a screm type bottom which also seemed good enough and hygenic for me. Nothing to say bad about the packaging of this lipstick.
5/5

Colour, Consistency and Fragrance

Lotus Herbals Pure Colour Moisturizing Lipstick - RED ROSE

Lotus Herbals Pure Colour Moisturizing Lipstick - RED ROSE
Swatch on my hand
 It has a lovely shade which seemed like a mixture of plum, pink and slight brownish too. The shade would suit most of the Indian skin complexions except the very darker ones. If slightly applied, that is not going to be a problem for dark skinned beauties too. The texture is so smooth, soft and easily spreadable and this lipstick smells sweet. Not too much sweet or fruity like the flavored ones, still it has a decent smell.
4.5/5 

How it looks and works on Me 
Lotus Pure Colour Moisturizing Lipstick - RED ROSE (On my lips)
The pure colour lipstick spreads so smoothly over the lips and gives a slight glossy finish. Even if you have dry lips, this will spread on yours without any hardness. I must say that the staying power of this pure colour lipstick is really great! It stays upto 3 hours and eventually fades without settling into lines or looking patchy. Even after it fades off, it leaves behind a cute pinkish stain which stayed for hours. The most lovable thing of this lipstick is the staying power, the second place goes to the shade. In dry winters, you may need a lip balm under this lipstick but in summers, I doubt it may bleed a little if you use a lip balm under it. So, overall, I am in love with this red rose shade of pure colour range from the Lotus herbals and I planned to try the other shades as well.
4.5/5

  12. 2 swipes are enough for a opaque coverage. Hides imperfections and uneven colours decently.
  13. The fragrance is sweet and not that overpowering. 

CONS
  1. In summers, if used with a lip balm, it slightly bleeds.
  2. The shade doesn't suit very dark complexions. This can't be taken as a con, you can check out for other shades from this range.
No other con! I love this lipstick and the whole pure colour range from Lotus Herbals very much.

My Recommendation: Go for it! Perfect for everyday use, doesn't make lips dry or patchy. A great shaded lipstick from the Lotus Herbals pure colour range. I highly recommend it.
