Packaging:-

 
The lip palette comes in a black cardboard box. On top of the box, the name of the brand and product written silver/white and golden letters.
The lip palette itself comes with a mixing plate and with a dual-ended spatula come brush. The lid of the lip palette is transparent for which one can see the colors from outside of the palette.

My experience:-

 
I picked up the lip palette when it was just newly launched. I bought it from an Instagram seller in Rs.4000/-.
The very first day I saw the palette online I was tempted to try it as I am a sucker for lip products (especially lipsticks).
The palette contains all the probable beautiful shades that one needs in life to create different looks. Along with that, it has 5 primary colors in this palette with which one can customize any shade if they have the knowledge of right proportion of mixing each shade otherwise they might end up creating some mess (like me :P).
All the shades in this palette are matte in texture. There is no shimmery shade (thankfully!!!). The darker shades are super pigmented while the lighter shades are little streaky. One need to layer the lighter shades to get opaque coverage while it is easy to work with darker shades.
 The lip color glides easily on my lips. The lip brush that comes with the palette is perfect for lining and filling of lips. The texture of the lip color for first few minutes might look satin but it will turn to matte after 30 minutes of application. It stays pretty 5 hours on my lips. But as these are not transfer-proof matte lip colors so they just keep on fading with every food or drink we have in between. Now I don't recommend you to go for touch up of these lip color once it fades because it is a bit difficult to carry a whole palette everywhere for touch up of a particular color or your customized color.

The lip palette is basically good for a makeup artist or makeup lover who love to experiment with lip color. But if you are just a makeup lover who just loves makeup and love to collect individual lipstick rather than a palette then you can happily skip this palette because all the shades are dupeable in many other brands in form of individual lipstick.

The downside:-


  • Firstly the price of the palette is too much. One can really feel the burn in the pocket while buying it so better you grab it in the sale.
  • Secondly, I found the quantity of each lip color in the palette is less for which you can hit the pan after 3-4 usage from a corner.
  • Thirdly as it has no mirror so one might feel the burden to carry the palette while traveling.
  • Fourthly carrying a separate mixing tray while traveling is a bit awkward too as you might lose it in the travel bag during traveling (like I did thrice).


Overall If you want me to rate the palette I will give it 4/5 as the quality of the lip color in the palette is too good and I love the comfort matte texture of these lip colors. All I wish they had refills for popular colors in this palette :(











So, that's all for today. Until next time...

Selena gomez inspired makeup from "HANDS TO MYSELF" SONG:


Hey friends,
After a prettyyyyyyy long time here I am back with another look inspired by my famous hollywood star SELENA GOMEZ. I just loveeeee this girl, her style, her makeup, , her voice ...no matter what's going on in her personal life...ahem! ahem....! ;)


Anyways coming back to my today's post...i wanted to do a tutorial look over this look but then i remember that i already did this kind of look before for my channel. So i skip video tutorial for this look. But if you are interested in that video then here it goes...


or you can check below...(the eye shadow base and eye shadow and the lip shade i use in the video is different than the eye shades and lip shade here. the video will give you an idea of my way of doing smokey eyes only. You can do it in same way with all brown shades too for soft look. )














The product I use for this look:-
For face Nivea after shaving balm for men as a primer for eyes and face.
Colorbar makeup stick in shade "au natural" as a concealer.
Mac studio fix plus fluid foundation spf 15.
Mac studio fix powder plus foundation as to set my entire makeup.
Contour by Sleek contour palette a shade light.
Blush by sigma heavenly blush.


Coming to eye makeup.
Lakme eyeconic pencil in brown as a base. Followed by a brown eyeshadow on the entire lid.
A black eye shadow just on the lower part of the eye that just smudged by upward strokes so that it look intense on lthe lower part of the lid while lightening up gradually towards the crease line.
Blend everything with the same brown eyeshadow on the crease line.
Applying liner and kajal on the upper lid and lower lashline.
Finally mascara and false eyelashes.
You can skip the false eyelashes part as per your choice. 


For lips, i applied a neutral shade lip liner followed by a neutral lip shade from Morphe lip palette 10ln (I will review it soon).
Finally, on top apply a clear gloss from the brand "Covergirl" .







I hope you like the look and hope I justified the look too...Do let me know about your thoughts regarding this look.


That's all for today...I will see you soon with a new post ;)
Love
Sammy :*
