Colorbar Nail Lacquer- 60 (Vernisa Ongles)

Hello beauties,

        Today, I am reviewing this beautiful Nail Lacquer in 60 from Colorbar. Honestly, I dont know the name of the shade but its a gorgeous green(mehndi) color which looks so pretty on the nails.

Quantity: 9ml

Price: 100 INR

Shell Life: 3 years

What the Company Says:

The Quick Finish Nail Lacquer, with a simple one stroke application gives your nails a glossy salon perfect look in 60 seconds. It is chip resistant and does not yellow your nails. Use it with a base and top coat for a perfect lustre. It's just the perfect thing for your nails to keep them look manicured at all times.

What I think:
1. It isn't a one stroke application.

2. It does dry quickly.

4. It does yellow your nails, if applied for 5-7 days.

PROS:
1. Smooth application
2. Nice simple bottle.

FARA Nail Polish Review

Hey Gorgeous!!

Do u too get bored of same (almost same) nail paint colors...Well, I really do. No matter, how many types of pinks I have, they are from the same family and my nails and I really get bored.
I just realized, I haven't done a nail polish review since forever!

   So, in my recent search of nail polish, I came across the brand - "Fara".
I guess they launched sometime back in India, because while browsing for the review I found 'NONE' of it.
So, I wanted to give this brand a try and why not for just Rs. 49.

The shade I ordered is Leaf Green 104. Its a leafy green color as the name suggest :P
I was in a hunt to try out a new color, and it really satisfied me.
You need to apply 2-3 coats to make it totally opaque. I applied 2 coats.

According to the brand:
    "Fara nail enamel is a simple one stroke application and fortifies nails along with providing them a high shine and intense color" 
Fara Nail Enamel is formulated to dry immediately and chip resistant. It does not yellow the nails and is long lasting.

1. Freshly manicured look after drying,
2. Easy to apply brush
3. Leaves no residue while removing the polish.

According to me:
1.Its surely does dry fast.
2.I have this color on from the past 4 days now, and it hasn't chipped nor has the color started to fade (like in some nail paints it does)
3. The brush is nice.
4. I can't say about the residue as I haven't removed it yet.

PROS:
1. High Quality
2. Affordable
3. Chip Resistant
4. Staying power is excellent as per the price.

CONS:
1. Not available in many shades.

OVERALL VERDICT:
Its a great nail paint, very affordable, high quality, chip resistant but not available in many shades. 
I totally love the shade I ordered. 

WILL I REPURCHASE IT:
YES, I am ordering it in every shade ;)

Maybelline's Color Sensational Moisture Lipsticks - Review and Swatches.

Hello Gorgeous!

         Did ur Santa gift u yet!
 OOOOOO.....I forgot, its too early for christmas!
  Don't think I dont know which month of the year we are living in!
 After buying this lipstick from Maybelline colorsensational range, Chrismtas is all I can think of, apart from nude eyes and flawless skin/face, Winged eyeliner etc etc.

 SUMMER SUNSET

Honestly, I ordered this color for my Mom and even checked it online for the swatches but didn't knew the exact color.
So, when I first saw it, I was disappointed coz it wasnt the way showed online in swatches but then trying it out on and off..I kinda started liking the color.
It is one of those Red lipsticks which can be worn with the right makeup.

WAYS OF WEARING THIS LIPCOLOR:
> Apply it with a lip brush for lighter pigmentation.
> Wear it like you normally would for proper color

This is how it looks following the second way:

PROS:

1. Smooth and Creamy, Glides super easily,

2. Rich in Color,

3. Provides enough moisture.

4. Doesn't fade off easily.

5. Reasonably Priced,

6. Gorgeous shade, suit most skin shades,

7. Easily available.

CONS:

1. It will bleed as the color is strong and creamy.
2. Boring Packaging.

OVERALL VERDICT:

Maybelline Color sensational Moisture Extreme Lipstick Summer Sunset is a wearable red shade that doesn't looks natural. The texture of the lipstick is smooth and creamy, its well pigmented and gives a wear time of about 3-3.5 hours. I kind of just started liking it. It can be worn with neutral eyes or winged liner. 
You can try it if you're looking for a warm red shade.

Its a very pretty shade and I am in so badly love with and also I just dont understand why I didn't had this color???? Weird me!

Left to Right- One swipe, Two Swipes

  It is THE most perfect nude for me. The best quality of this shade...One swipe is good, Two Swipes are great, Three swipes amazing and it keeps getting better..The lipstick is nicely moisturized and it doesn't feel dry on the lips even after long hours of wearing.
