My Experience:
Shades:
- 340,Berry Bradshaw : It's a berry-toned pink shade with mauvy undertones.Deep pink with very heavy blue-undertones
- 140,Pinker-bell : It's a bright fuchsia pink shade apt for summers
- 310,Red My Lips : It's a very bright flat out red shade that can be worn anytime.Suitable for parties and functions.
All the shades mentioned above will suit all the skin tones well.Especially medium-complexioned Indian skin tones.
Swatches:
Packaging:
The lipsticks in the Ultimate Colour collection come in a black coloured plastic tube.
Details like shade number,name,quantity and shelf-life are mentioned on the tube-packaging.
The bottom of the lipstick has a colour-coded sticker that matches the lipstick's shade the tube holds.It comes in very handy if we have more than one lipstick from this collection.
The packaging is sleek,sturdy and travel-friendly.

Formula & Texture:
- The lipsticks in the Ultimate Colour collection have a creamy-finish
- Very pigmented
- One single swipe is enough to cover-up any lip-pigmentation
- Satin-finish of the lipsticks makes the lips look luscious
- Very comfortable
- Doesn't settle into the fine-lip lines
- Keeps lips moisturized for a really long time
- Sets quickly on the lips and after few hours looks kind of matte on the lips.Yes,the sheen goes away as the time passes
- Survives light snacks
- After a heavy meal,we need to re-apply the lipstick
- Re-application is easy and layering up the product doesn't look patchy.
- Doesn't flake or feather
- Not transfer-proof
- Not smudge-proof
Longevity:
The lipsticks in the ultimate colour collection last for about five hours straight.These lipsticks leave a feeble stain on the lips.Can be removed easily using a makeup-wipe or remover.Long lasting lipsticks...I must say.
Con:
Nothing
Overall,I love these lipsticks and you must try at least one shade out of fifteen shades available.The lipsticks in the Ultimate colour collection are nicely pigmented and long-lasting at the same time.There are awesome shades available...from nudes to bold reds they have it all.Cool!
Will I re-purchase?
Yes
Rating : 4.5/5
Tips: Lining out lips before applying the lipstick is a good idea.Also,don't forget to prep-up the lips by exfoliating and applying a generous amount of lip balm.Then,wipe off the lip balm exactly before applying the lipstick
Availability:
