Bio Bloom Hand Made Soap:-

The BioBloom soap that I recieved is of the flavour Neem, Aloe Vera and Basil. It is a cool translucent green bar of soap that smells strongly of its ingredients. This product is also exclusively packed for Glamego box.

My Opinion:-

This is such an affordable box. At just ₹ 399/- the value of the box is more than ₹2,318/-. We have received amazing quality skincare products and makeup. This box is keeping up with the skin care and makeup trends. As we all know that matte lips are out of fashion and its all about glosses now. Therefore, it was great to see a lip gloss in this box instead of a lipstick.

Also face oils are the hottest thing in skin care market. The BioBloom face oil is a good anti-aging oil. It smells of all the fantastic ingredients. Natural Bath & Body is loved by all. The smell of grapefruit is delicious. The cream is of good consistency and I will surly buy the full size cream after finishing off this sample.

I am very impressed with this box. I hope you find this review helpful. I will be back another post very soon. Until them follow me on Facebook and Instagram.

MAC Retro Matte Liquid Lip Colour- Fashion Legacy- Review and Swatches

Hey Guys,

Sometime back I had posted a picture of me on Instagram and Facebook, my lipstick gained a lot of attention! So I decided to dedicate one post to the much talked about lipstick. The lipstick I am talking about is my go to RED lipstick- MAC Retro Matte Liquid Lip Colour in the shade FASHION LEGACY. Lets take a closer look at the lipstick.

THE PACKAGING:-

The packaging like every MAC product ; very chic. This is a liquid  lipstick therefore it doesn’t come in the signature black capsuled packaging. It comes in a beautiful see through plastic packaging. The cap of the lipstick is the classic black MAC packaging with MAC printed in silver.

PRICE:-

INR 1800

THE APPLICATOR:-

The applicator is attached to this beautiful transparent wand. This sponge applicator is soft. As the applicator wand is short, it helps in precise application.

PIGMENTATION :-

This lipstick is very pigmented. A single swipe is sufficient to cover your lips completely. Amazing pigmentation makes it difficult to get the lipstick off though.

TEXTURE:-

The lipstick is quite thick and creamy, certainly not a lightweight translucent texture. It sets quickly to a totally matte finish.

STAYING POWER:-

Lipstick stays on your lips for as long as you want but it does get dry and starts cracking in around 5 hours. It cracks  up in the middle and the powder starts settling on the borders of your lips. So, you do need to touch it up in every 4-5 hours.

SWATCHES:-

PROS:-

1. Highly pigmented
2. Chic packaging
3. Excellent quality
4. Good staying power
5. Absolutely matte

CONS:-

1. Expensive
2. Needs touching up
3. Starts cracking and drying after a few hours

RATING:-

3.8/5

Hope you found  this blog post helpful. I will soon be back with another post. Till then stay connected with me through Instagram and Facebook.

Love- Barkha
