Maybelline India Blushed Nudes Palette Review, Swatches, Tutorial

Hi guys,

I have been playing with The Blushed Nudes Palette and also created this look you see here.

What the Company claims: With all the things you’ll love about the new Blushed Nudes Palette, here are a few more:
– 12 rose-gold infused shades
– Easily blend-able
– Creates countless looks
– Compliments every skin tone

MRP: Rs.899/- for 9g

They have 13 different eye shadow combinations given behind, same like in the original Nudes, and that’s a very interesting idea. I can’t wait to try some of these looks.

The packaging of the palette is exactly like the original Nudes Palette and the pricing is also the same. It comes with a small applicator which has a sponge tip on one side and a brush on one side. The brush is pretty good for using in the inner corners or highlighting brow bone.

The palette is quite handy and small to carry along. It does not come with a mirror sadly, I would have loved a mirror.

The original Nudes Palette had all warm shades and more of browns, this palette has more pinks and grays and all cool toned shades. While the original Nudes Palette was supposed to pretty similar shades wise to the Urban Decay Naked Palette, this one the Blushed Nudes is very close shade wise to the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette.

If you follow me on Snapchat (bhumika_t), you must have seen a comparision of this palette with the same one in US and the shades are quite different, a lot of you took screenshot of that image coz the palette was quite different. I believe the US palette has more pinks and mauves and lighter shades and those shades might not show up on all Indian skintones, so they kept more of greys and darker shades in the Indian palette.

There are mostly satin finish shades, with one deep plum shade being shimmery and there are two mattes. One is a greyish taupe shade which is not that pigmented and the other is a matte white shade which is pretty decent.

Most of the shades are pretty pigmented while few are not that good and need a lot of layering for the colors to show up. But they stay on pretty good throughout the day once applied, more longer with a primer. They do not crease but the finish is not as fresh and slightly fade at the end of the day.

Here are the swatches:

TOP ROW:

The top row has all whites, peaches and pinks

BOTTOM ROW:

The bottom row has greys, taupes and purples.

I created this pink smokey eye look with this palette..

Overall I would say, this is a decent palette and worth checking out. We do not have many palette options available in India, and hardly any cool toned or pink-gray based. For the price, this is definitely pretty good. I do recommend this.

I hope you liked the look, do let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

Maybelline India Vivid Matte Lipstick Vivid2 Neon Pink Review, Swatches, FOTD

Maybelline India Vivid Matte Lipstick Vivid2 Neon Pink Review, Swatches, FOTD

Hey guys,

If you remember the previous post where I swatched all four of the new Maybelline Vivid Matte Lipsticks, go HERE if you still haven’t seen that post. I picked the shade Vivid2 Neon Pink.

Many of you asked me on my Fab Bag video which lipstick I was wearing, it was this.

What the Company claims:  Color Sensational Vivid Matte Lipstick now matte comes alive with Sensational Vivid Mattes. Flaunt bright, vivid shades of matte with Color Sensational Vivid Matte Lipstick. Everyone is bound to pay attention!

How to use product: Apply lipcolor starting in the center of your upper lip. Work from the center to the outer edges of your lip, following the contours of your mouth. Then glide across the entire bottom lip.

Shades:

  • Vivid1 Scarlet Red
  • Vivid2 Neon Pink
  • Vivid3 Violet Pink
  • Vivid4 Rosy Orange

MRP: Rs.475/- for 3.9g (BUY HERE)

Ingredients:

It comes in a sheer red cap and black base packaging, all the lipsticks have the same packaging unfortunately, the base is pink and red though shade wise.

The finish is semi matte and I found only this shade Neon Pink to be a little more matte and sans shimmer. I love the creamy matte finish, it glides on the lips easily without any tugging.

I am quite impressed with the ingredients, it has jojoba oil, rosa canina fruit oil, honey, etc. and it does feel very comfortable on the lips.

It is super pigmented and two swipes give opaque finish. It is not transfer proof, I did the transfer test in the video if you saw. It does transfer but the color hardly fades and it stays on for a pretty decent time, almost 4-5 hours, even longer without eating or drinking. It does survive light meals but does fade from the center after a complete meal.

Neon Pink is a bright blue based neon barbie pink. It’s not a shade for the faint hearted and it is super bright and bold. It will instantly brighten your face but also this shade is the type that makes your teeth look yellow. So be careful while wearing this.

Overall I quite like this lipstick, I also love the shade Vivid3 Violet Pink and as recommended in the previous post too, both Vivid2 and Vivid3 are worth checking out.

They are already available on Amazon and Nykaa, I have linked above with the price. I would suggest to wait for some days as I am sure they would be 10-15% off on Amazon soon.

Maybelline India Lip Gradation Info, Price, Shades, Swatches

Hi guys,

So finally Maybelline launched ColorBlur lip pencils/lip colours in India with the name ‘Lip Gradation‘. I rushed to the nearest Shoppers Stop today and found these 8 shades.

A little more about Lip Gradation: NEW COLOR SENSATIONAL LIP GRADATION

Go Bold Or Graded And Sexy On Your Lips With The New Color Sensational Lip Gradation. It’s time to experiment with your lip makeup. For the sexy, bold and adventurous woman, Maybelline New York brings international trends with the newest Lip Gradation. Available in 8 bright, matte shades, this double-sided lip product will inspire you to experiment with your looks and bring out your unique style and personality. The color stick at one end will give a gorgeous pop of color while the cushion blender tool at the other end will give a sexy, graded look. For a complete trend-on look, apply color on the centre of your upper lip and use the sponge smudger to extend the color to the outer edges till the contours of your lips or use it as a matte lip color or a lip liner.

Here’s why you will love it:

  • 8 bright, matte shades
  • Easy to apply
  • Fun, flirty, versatile way to color your lips
  • Innovative product with cutting edge technology

Shades Available: 8

  • Red 1
  • Red 2
  • Pink 1
  • Pink 2
  • Fuchsia 1
  • Mauve 1
  • Orange 1
  • Coral 1

MRP: Rs.500/-

They come in a twist up crayon packaging and have to be twisted from the end, from where the blender is. There is a white blender on the other side. The crayon has a black cap and the blender has a transparent small cap.

The texture is super creamy, it feels like butter and the pigmentation is amazing too. And amazingly they have a nice, comfortable, matte finish.

You can either apply it to inner half and/or outer half and create a shaded effect with the blender or mix two shades for an ombre lip.

The shade names are very funny, how and why Red 1, Red 2 :/ Could have had better names.

Here are the swatches:

I got the Mauve shade, coz the reds and pinks looked pretty similar to lip crayons I already have. Loved Coral too, and was loving the look of Orange too. Maybelline has again not launched the super pretty burgundy and wine shades the ColorBlur Lip Pencils have 🙁

These are slightly priced on the expensive side for Maybelline, I think around 400-450 would have been an ideal price but nonetheless I have tried it once and like it, will update with the full review super soon 🙂 For all others who are looking to try this out, I would suggest getting the Coral and Mauve as both the shades are quite different.

Maybelline Baby Lips Candy Wow Peach Review, Swatches

Maybelline Baby Lips Candy Wow Peach Review, Swatches

Hi guys,

So today I am reviewing this latest launch by Maybelline India, the Baby Lips Candy Wow in Peach.

What the Company claims: Baby Lips has launched a new range of lip balms called the Baby Lips Candy Wow range to make your winter exciting and fun. Baby Lips has moved beyond the basic lip balm stick and now comes in the form of a crayon pen! Enriched with Vitamin E, this chubby stick will help you wow your lips in 5 candy shades – Raspberry, Mixed Berry, Orange, Cherry and Peach. Now take intense care of your lips this Winter and pop them with a dash of color with the fun and sweetness of a candy.

Here are the reasons why you’ll love the new Baby Lips Candy Wow:
Available in 5 new shades
– Delicious, candy flavors
1st lip balm in a pen
– Enriched with Vitamin E to make your lips look better
– Gives supple and better-looking lips
– Visible results instantly
Only for Rs. 275/-

Flavors Available:

  • Peach
  • Orange
  • Raspberry
  • Cherry
  • Mixed Berry

MRP: Rs.275/- for 2g (Available on Amazon)

Ingredients:

It comes in this pen kind crayon twist up form. Packaging is quite cute, but also a little broader and longer if you want to carry it in your wallet or denims. I usually carry my normal Baby lips in my denim pockets, this is a bit longer to carry around easily.

This is the complete quantity and it is just 2g which will not last really long if you reapply lip balms 2-3 times a day.

Peach is a very light pale peach that will only work for fair skin tones, doesn’t work well on me. Also Peach is not that pigmented.

Orange is a light fanta orange shade

Cherry is reddish shade

Raspberry is a beautiful pink

Mixed Berry is a light purply pink

These are quite pigmented, a little more than few of the original Baby lips. Moisturising and hydrating enough, stay for 3-4 hours. It has a faint candy smell, but doesn’t last long, just for a minute or so.

Here is the swatch of the Peach shade..

And on me..

Difference between Baby Lips and Baby Lips Candy Wow:

  • Price: Baby Lips are Rs.150-175 and this is pricey at Rs.275
  • Qty: Baby lips is 4g and this is just 2g
  • Pigmentation: Baby Lips Candy Wow some shades are more pigmented than Baby Lips
  • Size: Baby lips are more travel friendly and handy
  • Packaging: Baby Lips Candy Wow look cuter with the bright crayon packaging

Overall I would say, if you need something cute and more pigmented than normal lip balms, Baby Lips Candy Wow is a perfect option. If you want something handy and value for money with good qty and affordable pricing, then stick to Baby Lips.

I have seen the swatches online and I love Raspberry and Cherry. Peach is the least pigmented. I definitely recommend checking out or buying Raspberry and Cherry, I am getting those next!

Maybelline The Colossal Liner Black Review,Swatches

Maybelline The Colossal Liner Black Review,Swatches

What the Company claims: Enjoy eye catching intensity and flawless precision with the Maybelline New York Colossal Liner.
Designed to end all your application woes, the Maybelline New york Colossal liner features a 0.4 mm flexi tip applicator that gives you perfect error free lines. Empowered with the ink pigment technology, this colossal eye liner imparts smudge proof, fade- proof, intense color to your eyes. Its quick dry formula ensures a 12 hour staying power and quick application. Add this kajal to your vanity kit and enjoy stunningly beautiful eyes everyday.

Here’s why you’ll love it:

  • Has the intensity of a kajal and defines like a liner
  • Customized Flexi Tip applicator ensures mistake-proof application
  • Smudge-free liner has an intense black finish
  • Lasts for up to 12 hours

Price: Rs. 425 for 1.2g (Bought it from Nykaa)

I am a big big fan of Maybelline HyperSharp Liner..you can see HERE. It is my go to liner and I use it everytime, so when Maybelline launched the New Colossal Liner, I was eager to try it out.

I am a thin eyeliner person, I usually go for kajal and when I line my eyes, its a thin line just for definition, rarely I go for a thick liner. So HyperSharp was kind of perfect for me since it is 0.05mm tip whereas this one has a 0.4mm tip. Many did not like HyperSharp as they prefer thick liner and had to go over again and again with HyperSharp, Colossal is your answer ladies. But with HyperSharp, I too had to go over atleast 2 times on the line.

It comes in a pen form with a cap, a thin, flexible tip which goes on easy and smooth on the eyes. In terms of intensity, it is a rich black. I believe a little more pigmented and rich than HyperSharp too.

It dries quickly and gives a nice wing and perfect definition for everyday. I need not go over 2-3 times with this as I had to with HyperSharp.

Comparison of Maybelline HyperSharp Liner and Maybelline The Colossal Liner

  • Both are prices at Rs.425 but Colossal liner offers 1.2g whereas HyperSharp had 0.5g
  • HyperSharp is thinner with a 0.05mm tip and The Colossal has a 0.4mm tip
  • The Colossal Liner is a bit more pigmented than HyperSharp

I like both of them, HyperSharp was a favourite untill now, but if I have to choose one, I will go with Colossal coz I think the pigmentation and intensity is better and also lining eyes is a little quicker with it. Price wise, Colossal Liner comes with more than double the quantity so it would last longer too.

It stays on for 7-8 hours with minimal smudging,but it is not waterproof. Comes off easily with water. Can be carried along anywhere and everywhere.

My new current favourite..absolutely recommend this! I hope they come up with many different shades in a similar pen format and tip with equally amazing pigmentation.
