Inglot Freedom System Round Lipstick 51 Review,Swatches

Inglot Freedom System Round Lipstick 51 Review,Swatches

1.2 g/0.05 US OZ

MRP: Rs. 250/-

Inglot Freedom System Explained: Inglot has different round and square palettes for their lipsticks and eye shadows..and you can buy refills for each of them as per your liking..the lipsticks come in round refills only which are of 1.2g each whereas the eye shadows come both in round and square refills (2.7g-Rs.300/-)..the brow powder (1.8g-Rs.300/-),brow wax (1.3g-Rs.300/-) and cream concealer (1.2g-Rs. 250/-) also come in round refill packaging.

The round palette comes in a size of 3,5 and 10..costing Rs. 300/-, Rs. 850/- and Rs. 1400/- respectively. And the square palette comes in size of 2,4,5,20 and 40 costing Rs. 1400/-, Rs. 2800/-,Rs.850/-, Rs. 2800/- and Rs. 5000/- respectively (I know there is a huge difference here..and the pricing is weird)

You can purchase only the refills too from shopatmajorbrands.com but at the stores they do not sell only the refills..you need to buy the palettes or bring your palettes.

Coming to round lipstick refill and the shade 51 ! 51 is a very pretty wearable fuchsia pink with blue/purple undertones..would look good on both warm and cool skin tones..This is the prettiest pink I have ! I am so loving it..

If you want to start with a hot pink shade..but are scared of too bright shades..you should definitely start with this ! Its not the jhatak or OTT pink..but an understated everyday kinda fuchsia..

These are super moisturising..there is no lip balm required with this..and never did I feel even a little dryness..and super pigmented too..one swipe gives enough color..which is buildable depending on the color required.

In Natural Light
Indoors

And here is it on me..

Pros:

1. These round lipstick refills are super pigmented..the deeper the shade..the more pigmented these are.
2. Very moisturising..you do not require any lip balm and neither do you feel any dryness.
3. These stay for a good 4 plus hours and leave a tint behind..and the darker shades stay on longer.
4. Though these are just 1.2g, it is also better coz most of us never finish the entire 4g or 4.2g lipsticks we buy !
5. Each refill is economical..and priced well for the quality.
6. You can have 3 or 5 lipsticks together in a palette..and carry the palette along..also good if you are going out of town for events and functions.
7. These go on super smooth and do not settle in fine lines or bleed.
8. Inglot is paraben free and not tested on animals.
9. 90 shades of lipsticks to choose from !

Cons:

1. You always need a brush to use it..which sometimes is a little bothersome.
2. You need a palette to buy the refills at the stores.

No other cons..Overall I am super impressed with these..and love the quality, pigmentation, staying power, shades, everything..these are a definite must have !

Inglot Matte AMC Lip Pencil 23 Dupe

Inglot Matte AMC Lip Pencil 23 Dupe

When I had reviewed the Inglot AMC Lip Pencil here..many of you liked the shade..but found it to be a little expensive at Rs. 680/-

And this shade surely reminded me of a similar shade I had in my stash..and I checked all my lippies and compared..And it did !

And the dupe for Inglot Matte AMC Lip Pencil 23 is our very own Colorbar Velvet Matte Lipstick in Naked Pink !! Which is quite famous amongst us bloggers and I guess most of us have Naked Pink or Bare or both 😉

Though the formula is quite different as the Inglot Lip Pencils are totally matte..but the shade is a little similar..the Inglot 23 is a little cooler and the Naked Pink is a little warmer…but still they are quite comparable..see for yourself..

T- Naked Pink B- Inglot 23

I would surely suggest checking out Naked Pink if you still have’nt..its a pretty mauvey earthy pink..and a MLBB shade for dusky skin tones..

Pure Color Lipsticks have a simple golden packaging..its decent and sturdy enough..they have a very nice mix of pinks, browns and peachy pinks.

The texture is cream finish and is moisturising too..it does not settle into lines and never feels dry..staying power varies from shade to shade..darker shades have a good staying power of 3-4 hours and leaves a tint behind. It has a sweet artificial smell which I did not like much..but it goes away in a few minutes.

T-2 wipes B- 1 swipe
612 Red Rose is the new addition in the shades..its a coral red..a much wearable red ! This is the easiest red to carry off for anyone..its not the OTT bright red..and would suit all skin tones.

Pros:

1. Has a good mix of pinks, peaches and brown shades.
2. Has a smooth creamy finish.
3. Does not settle into lines.
4. Very economical.
5. Good staying power of 3-4 hours.
6. Red Rose is a very wearable red..that would suit all skin tones.

Cons:

1. Lotus Herbals is not available everywhere.
2. I do not like the artificial sweet smell.

No other cons as such..I quite like this..and surprisingly they have a good staying power too. Overall Red Rose is an universally flattering pink based red. And good for those who wish to start with bright shades. Check out swatches of all the Lotus Pure Color Lipsticks here

Go, sweep the world off its feet!

MRP: Rs. 499/- for 4g

Shades available:

  • 101- Barely There
  • 102- Sugar Rose
  • 103- Silken Peach

  • 404- Red Coral
  • 405- Vintage Red
  • 406- Wine
  • 501- Gothica
Now you must have known by the names that this range does not have normal everyday shades..but all bright and unique ones like transparent barely there, reds, purples, violets, lavender, grape, Gothic Black,etc..

This range is truly different.. I liked a few like Sugar Rose or Peach..this Barely There shade is a clear lip balm..This works more as a base to use underneath lipsticks or as a gloss to top lipsticks or matte lip creams with..

Its quite moisturising as a lip balm..the silver packaging is nice too..since this is devoid of any color..I don’t know about the staying power,etc

Overall its nice as a lip balm..but I would not advice spending 500 bucks for a clear lip balm.

Inglot Matte AMC Lip Pencil 23 Review, Swatches

What the Company claims: Medium hard, matte jumbo pencil.

Great staying power makes it an alternative for lip liner used by professionals for colouring lips.

Moisturising properties achieved by the complex of lanoline substitutes and avocado butter.

PARABEN FREE FORMULA
NOT TESTED ON ANIMALS

MRP: Rs. 680/- for 4.5 g/0.16 US OZ

Ingredients:

Shades Available : 23

Inglot is available at selected places in India..i.e Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai..with 3 stores in Mumbai and Delhi and just one store in Kolkata and Chennai…but the better thing is they are available online
at shopatmajorbrands.com

These are jumbo lip pencils cum matte lipsticks…i.e lipsticks in jumbo pencil form..quite pigmented and stays put 3-4 hours..and even survives meals..it has a completely matte finish.

23 is a mauve pink with some brown undertones..a deeper pink on me..this can be a MLBB shade for many..especially who have dark pink pigmented lips.

It does require a lip balm underneath or else feels drying..but its quite light on the lips..it does settle in fine lines though but does not give dry or flaky lips as the Inglot Matte Lipsticks.
Here is it on me..

Click here for the swatches of other Inglot Matte Collection AMC Lip Pencils..

Pros:

1. I like the shade..comes up as a mauve pink on me but would be a My Lips But Better shade for people with darker skin tones.
2. Its quite pigmented.
3. Stays for a good 3-4 hours and even survives meals.
4. Does not have any smell.
5. Convenient to carry around.
6. I like using matte finish at times. If you love mattes, this is perfect for you.
7. Its not very drying or does not feel heavy on the lips.
8. Like the shades Inglot offers.
9. You need a big sharpener but it sharpens easily.
10. Paraben free and not tested on animals 🙂

Cons:

1. Since its a pencil, lot of product does go waste in sharpening.
2. Little expensive at Rs. 680/- for 3.8 g where some goes away in sharpening.
3. Inglot is not easily available.
4. You do need a lip balm underneath this and it also accentuates your fine lines.

Overall I do like this..though it accentuates fine lines and feels a little drying..a lip balm solves the problem..I love the matte finish and the staying power.
