REVLON BABY STICK FOR LIPS & CHEEKS- SUNSET- REVIEW






















2.8 gms for INR 500


Revlon Says: - Cream blushes that can be used for lips and cheeks. New for your PACIFIC COAST look by Gucci Westman! The collection?s must-have it item for the season is a limited-edition lip & cheek stick. Gives you a perfect flush of color and soft dewy finish with a non-sticky feel.


Available in 3 Spring shades: Tahitian, Sunset and Pink Passion.


* Tahitian has faint peachy finish


* Sunset is on the pale orange hue

* Pink Passion is a bright pink colour and definitely the only baby stick that required just 2 rubs (with pressure!) for the color to become visible.


Usage : Apply to cheeks for a glowing blush or to Lips for a matte effect with high pigment color and great for on the go.
(Taken from MedplusBeauty.com)
































Ingredients: - Not Listed

My Opinion: - When I saw these cute fatty Baby Sticks at Shoppers Stop, I literally pounced on them. I so regret my purchase now :( Actually I was about to get 2 of them- Sunset & Pink Passion but thankfully I got only 1 to try out at first. They didn't have testers and I was in love with the packaging. Now coming to the packaging of these Baby Sticks, they are cute, very cute. Short & fat like a cute chubby baby. The outer casing corresponds to the shade of lip/cheek stain shade. Easy to use and carry around but not hygienic.

























                        The texture of the baby stick is waxy and hard, though it looks soft and gel-like. It is difficult to put it on the lips and on the cheeks. You need to swipe about 20 times to get a very light tinge of color (????). It feels waxy and its impossible to blend it into the skin. It basically looks like colorless grease on my cheeks and on my lips it feels waxy. Overall it gives an uncomfortable feel to my lips/cheeks when applied.





























                         The fragrance of the Baby Stick is exactly the same as crayons but it fades off upon application. I cannot use it as a base for my powder blushes as it settles into 2 greasy shiny streaks on my cheeks as it is totally not blendable. This stick is not moisturing instead its very drying on the lips. There's no proper information on the pack, not even ingredient list and sadly Revlon India website also has no information about this product. These Baby Stick apart the appearance are complete duds. Girls save your money for better products. My first disappointment from Revlon, I think. 
                         



























Pros: -


* Cute packaging

* Easily Available

* Pretty shades (in the tube only )

* Easy to carry around


























Cons: -




* Expensive at Rs 500 for 2.8 gms

* No pigmentation, its nearly colorless

* Totally unblendable

* No ingredient list available

* No information regarding this product on the Revlon India Website






















                    I rate Revlon Baby Stick For Lips & Cheeks in Sunset 2 out of 5. I love Revlon as a brand and use loads & loads of Revlon products but I have not been disappointed with any other product except this one. Not recommended, girls invest in other products which are atleast usable.  This one is a total miss from Revlon :(



Hope this review helped you in some way and do leave behind your sweet comments and also tell us about your experience with Revlon Baby Lips if any. Thank you and have a great Thursday :)

VIVEL ACTIVE ESSENTIALS PURIFYING FACE WASH- REVIEW




























* For pimple control
* For Oily/Normal Skin
* Purifies to help prevent pimples
* Green Tea Extract
* Dermatologically Tested

100% Soap Free Formula

50 ml for INR 65































Vivel Says: - Did you know that dirt and excess oil block facial pores leading to outbreak of pimples.

Pimple Preventive Action

1. Green Tea, a known anti-oxidant scavenges free radicals caused due to pollution to purify the skin and antibacterial agent fights pimple causing infection.

2. Oil balanced formula washes oil off the skin and gently cleanses to remove impurities without causing dryness.



Usage: - Apply on wet face. Gently massage in circular motion with fingertips avoiding eye-contours. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Use twice daily.
































Ingredients: - Aqua, Sodium Laureth Sulphate, Decyl Glucoside, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Meltooligosyl, Glucoside/Hydrogenated Starch Hydrolysate, Acrylates/Stearath-20, Methacrylate, Crosspolymer, Polysorbate-20, PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, Sodium PCA, Polyquaternium-47, Glycerin, Triethanolamine, Fragrance, DMDM Hydanation, Triclosan, Tocopheryl Acetate, Tetrasodium EDTA, Camella Sinesis Leaf Extract, Benzophenone-4, CI 11680, CI 74160.

























My Opinion: - Today I am reviewing Vivel Purifying Face Wash with Green Tea Extracts which I bought a while back. I bought it because I saw the words "Pimple Control" & "Green Tea Extracts" inscribed on the tube. The tube is nearly over and now I remember that I have not yet reviewed it. The face wash like all face washes comes in a tube with a flip open lid. The white plastic tube with pink and green designs looks refreshing, the flip open lid is green in color and shuts tight and hence I would call it travel safe. And yes this kind of tube packaging with flip open lids are hygienic too. 































                        This face wash is a thick and colorless gel. Its not very thick and very runny as well. The fragrance is good, fresh citrusy scent which fades off after application. It does not lathers well and is 100% soap free.My skin does not feel dry and stretchy after using this face wash. It cleans well but does not give that squeaky clean feel to the skin. It gives a fresh feel which does not stay on for long. The face wash cleans only the daily makeup (moisturiser/sunscreen etc) and is ineffective against eye-makeup & lip makeup, well it does claim to clean off makeup so that's ok.




                





















                   This purifying face wash does not leave behind any residue but it needs to be washed off properly. I mean you would need a lot of water to wash it off completely. It clears off the oil effectively but is unable to control oil production. Now the big deal is that it does absolutely nothing for my pimples. Does not help with existing ones and is unsuccessful in preventing new ones. Then whats the need for a pimple preventing face wash which cannot prevent pimples!!!! End of story....




Pros: -


* Affordable & Easily Available

* Travel-friendly & Hygienic packaging

* Contains Green Tea Extract

* Dermatologically Tested

* Does not dry out my skin or makes it stretchy

* Cleans well

* 100% soap free



Cons: -

* Does not Prevent Pimples or helps to dry the existing ones




            I rate Vivel Active Essentials Purifying Face Wash 3.75 out of 5. But I would not recommended this to beauties who are looking for a pimple control face wash but I would say that it is a good face wash for combination to oily skin. Just an average product nothing special about it.



Hope this review helped you in some way and do leave behind your sweet comments and also tell us about your favorite Vivel Face Wash. Thank you and have a rocking Afternoon and also Eid Mubarak to everyone :)

PURELY PRO BLUSH- STRAWBERRY- SWATCHES & REVIEW























3.7 gms for INR 1425


Purely Pro Cosmetics Says: Our soft blush powder comes in a special light texture which glides on smoothly and evenly. The sheer formula is lightweight and highly pigmented providing the perfect product to enhance the cheek bones and create contours. Purest ingredients. Long-lasting. Highly-pigmented. Professional quality. Not tested on animals.



























How to use: To apply, swirl your brush across the surface of the blush and then tap lightly to dust off excess pigment. Lightly apply the blush from mid cheek to temple - tracing the cheekbone for a contoured look. Else smile and apply it to the apples of your cheeks for a more youthful look. If you're not a blush user and don't have a brush, don't worry -your fingers, if used gently, can create an equally magical effect. Just make sure - you blend, blend, blend till you get the right amount of pigment.




Available in  shades:

1. Cheeky

2. Lovely

3. Orchid

4. Strawberry 

5. Universal



























Ingredients: - Mica, Octydodecyl Stearoyl stearate, Zinc Stearate, Phenoxyethanol, Tocopherol, Lauroyl Lysine, Caprylyl Glycol, Isopentyldiol

 MAY CONTAIN: Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxides (CI 77491), Iron Oxides (CI 77492), Iron Oxides (CI 77499), Tin Oxide (CI 77861), Bismuth Oxychloride (CI 77163), Manganese Violet (CI 77742), Carmine (CI 75470), Ultramarines (CI 77007), Red 7 Lake (CI 15850-1), Red 30 Lake (CI 73360), Yellow 5 Lake (CI 19140-1), Red 6 Lake (CI 15850).










About Purely Pro Cosmetics: - Margery Krevsky founded Purely Pro Cosmetics, a division of Productions Plus-The Talent Shop, a national talent agency. In 2005 Margery began formulating the line for professional models and talent who were looking for a superior quality makeup line that would last under the long days and intense demands of bright lights and showroom floors. Based on feedback from some of the toughest critics in the industry, the result is a line of mineral and classic makeup designed with the latest cutting edge technology and purest ingredients to last and enhance.




SWATCH- ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING



























My Opinion: - Continuing with my reviews, here is a pink-coraly blush with shimmers as I have realized that I have not reviewed a blush in a long time. This is Purely Pro Blush in the shade Strawberry but nothing in it that matches the name. It's a warm shade that will suit most Indian Skin Tones. The blush looks pink with coral undertones from some angles and coral with pink undertones from some angles. Might be my eyes or brain or both are gone but every time I look at the blush it looks different all the time...God help me!!!! I received this blush in my February Vellvette Box along with all my blogger friends. Ok now coming to the packaging of this blush, it looks very cheap, silver-grey plastic round tub with see through screw-on plastic lid. Easy to carry around and travel-friendly.
























                       It has a chemical smell to it, but it is almost non-existent. The texture of this blush is soft but not chalky. It is infused with very finely milled gold shimmed which is not much dominant once applied. It is this gold shimmer that adds warmth to this shade. This blush is decently pigmented but I cannot call it a very pigmented blush. The color adds a fresh warm glow to my face which I love. It stays on for 4-5 hours at the most after which it fades off but does not disappear altogether from my face. This blush does not oxidize on my oily skin and stays color true.




BLENDED SWATCH






















                 The finely milled gold shimmer is gone after application, it just leaves behind a warm pearly glow on my cheeks. I have to touch up after lunch and it looks fresh again. This blush is easy to blend and does not give that blotchy look and fades off evenly. The swatches as you can see are very different from the blush in the pan. Under natural as well as artificial lighting, the blush looks much pink than it actually is. But on my cheeks it does show its true coraly-pinky color. The blush does not irritate my skin and also it never broke me out. Its not a very popular brand in India and its availability and price are big disadvantages. But ofcourse its only available at Vellvette.com and is expensive. 






SWATCH- NATURAL LIGHT

























  Pros: -


* Very pretty shade

* Suitable for most Indian skin tones

* Stays on for 4-5 hours

* Very finely milled gold shimmer is not evident after application but adds a warm glow 

* Shade is perfect for everyday wear (office/college)

* Decent pigmentation

* Easy to blend

* Does not oxide on my oily skin
























Cons: -


* Availability is limited

* Expensive


    
             I rate Purely Pro Blush in Strawberry 4 out of 5. It is one pretty and unique shade in my collection. I haven't seen another shade from any brand that would make a dupe of it. A must have shade in your stash of blushes if you love corals. It is one of the few great samples that Vellvette has sent me. Truly love the shade!!!


Hope this review helped you in some way and do leave behind your sweet comments and also tell us about your favorite Coral Blush. Thank you and have a rocking weekend and also Happy Pujo to everyone :)
