Packaging:
Very attractive packaging.Colour-coded packaging. The pull-up cap is made up of plastic.Ir's ciolour matches the exact lipstick shade perfectly.Shade number is mentioned on the colour-coded sticker on the bottom of the lipstick case.Also,important information like product quantity,shelf-life etc are mentioned on the packaging.Sturdy & travel friendly packaging. Didn't experience any loose-cap /product mess-up issues.
                                         

In Pic : Shown bottom of the lipstick-case

                                       
Formula & Texture:

• Creamy formula with matte-finish
• Can say that this lipstick has a velvet matte finish that later on settles to a complete powder matte finish(as the time passes)
• Soft to touch and very pigmented!

Effective / Worth?
Yes, definitely.

• Affordably priced.For the price being paid we are getting a lot of product.Great quality I must say.
• Very pigmented.One to two swipes are enough to cover-up any lip-pigmentation
• Comfortable matte lipstick
• Doesn't tug on the lips.Glides on very smoothly
• Very creamy and lightweight formula
• The bullet hugs the lips perfectly and we don't really need a lip liner
• Great for daily-use.Perfect rosy pink shade that can be used on a daily-basis
• Easily available across the country

Con:
Enhances dry patches and fine lines a lot.Exfoliate your lips before applying this lipstick.I would highly suggest applying a lip balm prior to using this lipstick else your lips might feel very dry and flaky(approximately after two hours of application).

Will I re-purchase?
Yes

Overall, I would like to say that you should definitely give this lipstick a try.I am planning to check out other shades from the Matt Matt Matt lipstick collection.Very reasonably priced lipsticks.Must try!

My Experience:

Shade(023,Chestnut): It's a muted brown shade with mauvy/red undertones...love it:)
Suitable for all skin tones.

Packaging:
•  The lipstick comes in a plastic black-coloured tube,GOSH is written on the lid of the tube
•  Shade-name and number are mentioned at the bottom of the lipstick-tube on a sticker
•  The sticker is colour-coded and matches the lipstick-shade(more or less...true)
•  The packaging is sturdy and travel-friendly
•  Light-weight tube
•  Details like weight and type of lipstick are also mentioned at the bottom(sticker) of the lipstick-tube         
                                 

In Pic : Shown Shade name and number of the lipstick

Formula & Texture:

• Hyaluronic has been used in the lipsticks in this collection...awesome
• The lipstick is called the Velvet Touch Matt lipstick and has a creamy matte-finish(may be because of beeswax, hyaluronic acid)
• The lipstick is very pigmented and glides on smoothly on the lips
• Highly pigmented,in one swipe we get full colour-payoff
• Has very mild vanilla-fragrance


Benfits and importance of Hyaluronic acid:

• Hyaluronic acid is also used as a lip filler in plastic surgery
• Some people apply hyaluronic acid to the skin for healing wounds, burns, skin ulcers, and as a moisturizer
• There is also a lot of interest in using hyaluronic acid to prevent the effects of aging

Swatch:
                             

In Pic : Shown the swatch of the lipstick

Effective and worth?
Yes

• Firstly,the brand is cruelty-free and all the products are Paraban free...really cool
• Very comfortable on lips.Need to swipe two to three times to get an intense colour payoff.It can be     toned down and used as MLBB shade as well! Hides lip pigmentation completely.
• Keeps lips moisturized i.e.Hyaluronic acid keeps lips hydrated and smooth
• This lipstick doesn't enhance dry patches on the lips
• The lipstick doesn't bleed,flake or sit into the lip's fine-lines
• It does not stain the lips and wears-off evenly!
• The lipstick has a wear time of around 3 to 4 hours(max)
• Need to do a touch-up after meals as the lipstick fades away evenly.Re-application of the product is easy and the product sits smoothly on the lips

Con:
Nothing

Will I re-purchase?
Yes,I love it so much.It's an amazing shade that can be worn on a daily basis.Very impressed.It looks dark in the tube , but , when applied on the lips it looks muted brown-red kind of shade.Perfect.Love it. Do check this shade out girls!

I highly recommend this lipstick and do check out Velvet Touch Matt lipstick-collection
as there are nice shades out there.

Rating : 5/5

Tip:
Exfoliate your lips before wearing any lipstick specially matte lipsticks else the lipstick will cling to the dry patches on the lips!

Review : GOSH's Boombastic Swirl Mascara Black Spiral Volume XXL

Hi Beauties!

Hope you are doing great!

Today, I am going to share my thoughts on the GOSH's Boombastic Swirl Mascara Spiral Volume XXL.Shade name : Carbon Black.

About GOSH Copenhagen:
GOSH COPENHAGEN is a young and innovative cosmetics, bath & body and fragrance company based in Denmark. Founded in 1945 as a pharmaceutical company, GOSH COPENHAGEN quickly moved into the cosmetics industry. GOSH COPENHAGEN products are currently sold in more than 75 countries throughout the world.

All product development, production and distribution take place from our head office in Denmark, as we see no better way than overseeing all the steps ourselves. This way we ensure all products under the GOSH COPENHAGEN brand embody our identity and values.

Product Description:

Boombastic Swirl Mascara gives lashes XXL volume and spectacular length. XXL Swirl up volume and spectacular length and a giant swirled rubber brush are the keywords of the new Boombastic Swirl Mascara. The formula of the Boombastic Swirl mascara is full-bodied, creamy and really spreadable. It blackens and thickens the lashes without making them look clumpy or spidery. The added Argan Oil and Bamboo Extract gives lashes a boost whilst a synergy of waxes and olive oil adds nourishing properties to the formula.

The vibrant green container reflects the infused bamboo extract while the artwork brings the swirled brush to mind with the discreet swirled O in Boombastic. The present Boombastic mascara is one of the bestselling mascaras within the GOSH Cosmetics mascara assort­ment and with the new Boombastic Swirl Mascara now added to the Boombastic mascara range, anyone can find a Boombastic mascara for every look and mood.

The brush:
A giant swirled rubber brush with bristles at the tip grabbing even the tiniest lashes for application. The unique spiral shaped combination of bristles and discs creates spectacular volume and length.
• XXL Volume
• Spectacular length
• Giant swirled rubber brush
• Bristels at the tip allows even more precise application
• Argan Oil and Bamboo Extract improves lashes volume and vitality and makes them stronger, nourished and moisturised

Price : AED 80

Quantity : 13 ml /  0.4 fl oz US

Shelf-life : 6 months

Ingredients :

Source : https://www.superdrug.com/Make-Up/Eye-Makeup/Mascara/Gosh-Boombastic-Swirl-Mascara-13ml-Black-001/p/499204

My Experience:

Packaging:
The first thing that attracted me towards this product was the packaging indeed.The vibrant neon-green coloured bottle looked amazing and appealing.The details like quantity,shelf-life and shade name are mentioned on the packaging itself.The twist open cap is easy to remove.The mascara-applicator is very different and swirly unlike any other normal looking mascara.Interesting. Sturdy and travel-friendly packaging.Easy to carry in your handbag.

                               

In Pic : Shown GOSH's Boombastic Swirl Mascara Black Spiral Volumn XXL

Formula & Texture:
The formula is neither very wet nor dry,it's just somewhere in between and perfect.It's well balanced.
It dries quickly.The moussy-textured mascara is nicely pigmented and easy to work with.
Need to apply a coat and then wait for it to dry.Then re-apply the product on the lashes.This ensures that we get that desired length.

Effective?
Yes.Kind of.

• Firstly, the formula is so nice that it becomes very easy to play with the mascara.
• The wand is long and the swirly-bristles help in coating each and every eye-lash.
• The bristles at the front of the applicator helps in reaching out the lashes around the inner corner.Be careful and do not poke your eyes.
• Applying two to three coats of the mascara helps in getting lengthened lashes.
• In order to get volume, we need to apply the mascara for about three to four times.
• It holds the curled lashes very well.
• Smudge-proof : Didn't smudge a bit and stayed put whole day.
• Didn't flake at all.Avoid layering a lot of product,else, It will certainly flake.
• Key Ingredients : Argan Oil and Bamboo Extract improves lashes - volume and vitality and makes them stronger.Argan Oil helps in strengthening the hairs in the long run and bamboo extract keeps the lashes moisturized.How cool is that! Makeup that has skincare-ingredients.Amazing.
• It's water resistant to a great extent.Not really waterproof as such.Not that easy to remove using lukewarm water.Need to use a good makeup remover.

                                   

                                                            In Pic : Shown mascara-wand

Con:

• The actual applicator is very huge and it becomes very difficult to push into the bottle at times.Be patient.
• Messy application due to the huge applicator
• Need to keep layering to get desired volume and hence the product starts clumping on the lashes
• Gives no volume to the lashes
• Some people might find this mascara pricy

Will I re-purchase?
No, as I wanna try other mascaras from the same brand. I had tried Crazy Volume mascara earlier and liked it.
But, I recommend Boombastic Swirl mascara to people who are looking for a decent mascara that gives average length to their lashes.It separates the lashes beautifully.Holds up the curls well.

Rating: 3.5/5

Review : Misslyn Lipsticks(Shades : Russet Maroon & Raspberry Sorbet)

Hi All!

Hope you are doing well.

Immerse yourself in the color palette of these bright, creamy lipsticks. Let yourself be carried away by these brilliant colors, according to the motto #popupyourlips. The airy texture adheres to your lips like a second skin and can barely be felt. Give your lips that something extra with the matching lipstick for your makeup.

My Experience:

Shades:

• 101,Russet Maroon: As the name suggests,it's a flat out deep reddish-maroon shade.I love bold shades and that's why I picked this shade.I love it.It will really suit all the skin tones and can be worn during day time easily.

• 207,Raspberry Sorbet: This is a shade that every girl should have in her vanity!It's a true-raspberry pink shade with micro-shimmers.I love this shade and.The shimmers in it glamorize the look altogether.Awesome.Will suit all the skin tones,can be worn on a daily basis as it's a raspberry pink shade that is not loud-out there.

Swatches:

Packaging:
The lipsticks come in a black plastic tube.There is a colour coded sticker at the bottom of each lipstick.Also,the lipstick's shade number,name quantity shelf-life are mentioned on the tube-packaging.Classy,sleek,sturdy and travel-friendly.I like the packaging.
The tube is not heavy or bulky and hence can be thrown into the purse easily.The sturdy/firm packaging avoids the spillage of the product.No mess.

Formula/Texture/Worth:

• The lipsticks in the Satin-lipstick collection have a creamy texture and a true-satin finish
• The lipsticks are very light-weight,pigmented and comfortable 
• These glide on very smoothly onto the lips without tugging
• Melt like butter on the lips and lips look full and luscious
• Looks delicate and beautiful at the same time
• Abundant moisture thanks to coconut oil.The key ingredients like castor,coconut,sweet almond oils and shea butter extracts are really helpful in keeping the lips healthy in the long run
• Hyaluronic Acid - Moisturizes and hydrates the lips.
• Dermatologically tested for skin compatibility & suitable for sensitive skin.How cool is that!
• Doesn't sit into the lip-fine lines
• Not smudge-proof
• Not transfer-proof.As these are satin lipsticks these get transferred to the cutlery easily.
• Survives light meals easily.When it comes to heavy meals,it survives that too to some extent .After heavy meals the lipstick totally goes away from the center of the mouth ,re-application of the lipstick is a better option.
• Re-application is easy it doesn't look patchy on the lips.But,I highly suggest exfoliating the lips beforehand.
• Totally worth giving a try in my opinion!

Fragrance:
Sweet fragrance that's very mild and really not bothersome.

Longevity:

The lipstick lasts for about four hours(max) on the lips and fades away evenly(i.e. In case we don't eat anything heavy or greasy).

Con:

Nothing except the fact that in case a hair strand touches the lips(while the lipstick is on),it might smear the product.Gotta be careful!

Overall,after using all the liquid matte lipsticks it was really nice using these lipsticks.The buttery-soft formula keeps the lips moisturized and makes them look-luscious.These lipsticks are very pigmented and creamy...love!I highly recommend checking out Misslyn Lipsticks as there are awesome shades available out there.They have shades ranging from elegant nudes to bold purples.

Will I re-purchase?
Yes

Rating: 4/5
