REVIEW & SWATCHES- Luscious Cosmetics " Signature Lipsticks"!!


Hello my Lovelies!!

Year back i remember my maa was buying a lipstick in a departmental store. I wasn't really interested at that point as i was busy checking out some other brands. Later that day when we came back and i gave them a look. I got confused!! Read to find out more about them....


Literally i got shocked! The shades were not only amazing but really pigmented. It glides on smoothly on the lips and are not towards the drying side at all.
It tends to slightly identify the dry skin on the lips but not too noticeable. Again it also depend on your lips as in are they too dry or not too much but i have noticed that if it is used over a lip balm its all fine and glides on better and dryness is less visible.

Lets get into the details...

CLAIMS BY THE BRAND:

A light weight, yet velvety and rich colour formula enriched with Jojoba Oil that provides long wear and hydration for hours. Formulated with extra pigment for crisp,vivid and stunning colour results. Packaged in a stylish tube that glides on smoothly

Available in 16 satin matte shades.


My views on the Product:

A) Packaging-  

Umm if you are familiar with the brands MUA and NYX so you will know what am exactly referring to; it has exactly the same packaging only its slightly bigger than MUA. I don't own any NYX lipsticks so can't really say about them when compared with luscious cosmetics lipstick's size. It is in black casing with letter "L" written with white colour. It has a transparent end to it. Unlike MUA lipsticks the transparent lid does not come off or has an extra product for the user, it just shows the colour of the lipstick. It does not come with the name on the lipstick only shade number is mentioned at the bottom of the lipstick.




B) Scent-

It has a vanilla scent to it. If you don't like vanilla flavour/scent so its not for you. The scent does not linger long or is completely unnoticeable after application so one can give it a try.


C) Product-

It is a 4g product,which means has enough amount of lipstick in it.



D) Shades-

It comes in 16 different shades from satin,matte to shimmer. I'll be showing the four shades i own.
1)Shade 6- Creme Cocoa ( Pink with the hint of brown)
2)Shade 7- Moroccan Rose (Warm pink with brown undertones)
3)Shade 9- Pink Velvet( Warm brownish pink)
4)Shade 13- Coral Pink ( Light peachy colour)


E) Pigmentation-


The ones i own have a great colour payoff. Not at all sheer.




F) Price-


Its for Rs 775/- on its website. Imitiaz super market here in karachi sells it for less than Rs775/-, Zamzam at Malir Cantt sells it for Rs750/-. For international viewers you can get this for $7.83.

G) Duration-


It lasts on me for about 4-5 hours (without eating and drinking). It isn't a very long wearing product. Pink velvet leaves a beautiful stain on my lips when it starts fading. It glides on smoothly.

H)Application-


It has a very opaque application. It can cling on to the dry patches on your lips so i'll suggest using a lip balm underneath.


Final Words-

I love these lipsticks, pink velvet and moroccan rose are my all time favourite. If you find it a problem to reapply your lipstick after every few hours so this can be a pass it on product. But for people who are into these pinkish brown colours its your pick!! The downside is that there are many other lipsticks out there which have a lesser price tag; but as far as its availability is concerned you can get it very easily at your local super markets. Another problem with it is that once you throw the packaging you won't know its name as there is only the shade number mentioned underneath it. For me it isn't an issue as shade number is enough for buying it again. I'll suggest if you are into such pinks, browns and corals you should give them a try! I find it reasonably priced as it has a good quality when it comes to our locally available brands.
