Insight 24Hrs smudgeproof Eyeliner

hi,well come back! today i will be reviewing on Insight 24Hrs smudge proof Eyeliner. now let me give a brief description on insight brand. it is the sisterhood brand of VOV  brand. both are korean brands. i have used nail polish from vov and insight itself. i kind of loved it. in cheap price they provide very good quality nail polishes. now i was in the hunt for a good budget friendly eyeliner. i spotted this particular eyeliner at amazon site. it has pretty good review on that sight. so,i couldn't resist it and ordered it anyway.





price: 160 rupees


size: 9ml


Packaging: there was no box or anything. so there is no  expiry date or manufacture date or anything. huge disappointment!!!!!!!!! it comes with a black glass bottle.




ingredient list: none!


texture: it has liquidy texture. it takes some time to dry up completely. after drying up it gives bit of sticky but glossy finish.


pigmentation: its jet black and highly pigmented.

claims: 1. 24 hour smudge proof formula.
            2.  rich intense color with silk formula
            3. water resistant and fast drying.
            4.easy to apply
       
Smudge proof and Waterproof: it is definitely smudge proof. it is also water proof too at some extent.



My experience: after opening the box i was pretty disappointed because there was no box or anything. in the glass bottle there was nothing written. it comes with a black glass bottle. it reminds me of maybelline hyper glossy liquid liner. both has perky sleek handle with very thin liner brush. now this thin liner brush can be good or bad. if you want a precise liner then it will be perfect. but if you are in hurry then it will become an obstacle because of its thin lining brush. it is in liquid form and it takes 2-3 minute to dry up but after dying up it just sits there. it kind of provide a shinny finish which i like but after a while you will feel some stickiness upon your eyes. though it did not irritate my eyes. i did waterproof test and it holds up  to an extend which is impressive. so first claim is perfectly true.it is damn smudge proof. next claim is half true. though it has intense color but it is not that silky texture. it is water resistant to a very good extent but it doesn't dry fast. so like other brands all of the claims are not true. but the biggest turn off is it peels off from dry eyelids after some hours but in oily lids it stay intact for 4-5 hours

Pros: 1.water resistant and waterproof up to an extent
         2. intense black color
         3. 24 hour smudge proof formula

Cons: 1. not fully waterproof
          2. after application it feels bit sticky
          3.it peals off after some hours from dry lids

Rating: 7/10

My Recommendation: This product is not as smudge proof or water proof like other brands like music flower here . but for low budget i think it will be appropriate for beginners.  so you can give it a try. dry eyelid beauties should stay away from it

Incolor Dynamic Liquid Pen Eyeliner, Incolor Auto Eye Pencil and Star cosmetics bronzer

hi guyz!! today i'll be reviewing three products!! yes!! that's true. so lets begin...... first product is my all time favorite Incolor Dynamic Liquid Pen Eyeliner. this one i bought because i was at my very begging stage of makeup and i don't want to spend too much for a pen eyeliner.so i went for incolor brand. though its not so much well known but if you search it online you will find some reviews and most of them are positive. after purchasing Incolor Dynamic Liquid Pen Eyeliner i was very impressed and i decided to give this brand another try and went for  Incolor Auto Eye Pencil. next brand is also very less known brand which is stat cosmetics.i had no idea about bronzing and contouring. so i went for Star cosmetics bronzer. now lets give details review about those products.




Incolor Dynamic Liquid Pen Eyeliner:



Price:250 rupees( i got it from flipkart about one year ago. now they have increased the price)

shade: black

packaging: it comes in a pen with a sharp tip.the body of the pen is in the grey shade.

My Experience: it glides into my eyelids. if you want to draw cat eye or winged eye then this pen will be so appropriate for you. i have reviewed it into my youtube channel and there i have mentioned it as not being smudge proof. i had tested it into my eyelids without eye primer. as my eyelids are very oily it smudged. but when i tested into my palm which is comparatively dry i found it smudge proof. so apply eye primer before applying this eyeliner. but it is not water proof though.



Pros: 1.friendly for beginners
         2. it is smudge proof if you apply primer
Cons; 1. availability
          2. not waterproof


Incolor Auto Eye Pencil:




Price:160 rupees( i got it from flipkart about one year ago. now they have increased the price. you can purchase it for shopclues.com)

shade: dark blue

packaging: it comes with a pencil type container. this is great because you don't have to sharpen it again and again.

My Experience: it glides into the eyelids easily. unlike other pencil eyeliners you don't have to sharp it. i find it bit messy when you have to sharp an eyeliner and waste half of the liner with this process. it is not smudge proof or water proof. but it has a great electric blue shade which will compliment not only fair people but also dark beauties too.




Pros: 1.friendly for beginners
         2. it has a great electric blue shade
Cons; 1. availability
          2. not waterproof and smudge proof


Star cosmetics bronzer:






Price:160 rupees( i got it from flipkart )

shade: golden with shimmer

packaging: it comes into a plastic lid. it has classy packaging and its travel friendly

My Experience: when i was at the begging stage with makeup and i had very limited knowledge about bronzing and all i purchased it. when i got it i was bit disappointed because it is light for my skin tone and it has shimmer in it.So it was bit useless for me as a bronzer. then i got to know about strobing and highlighting. then i understood that it act as a great highlighting component if you go to a night party. it blends very easily into the skin and its shimmery particles are not visible. so you won't look like a disco ball. it lefts a stable glow into the skin. but i need to mention it will work as a highlighter only for warm tone beauties and it will be ideal for whitish to dark skin beauties with warm tone because golden color compliments the warm tone. it also act as an eye shadow. those who are in a budget or who are beginners this particular product will be ideal for them





Pros: 1.friendly for beginners
         2. ideal for highlighting and strobing
         3. with in low budget and travel friendly packaging
Cons; 1. availability
          2. definitely not a bronzer

My recommendation: Those who are beginners these three products are ideal for them. though these have availability issues but if you find in the local stores just go for it.

LAKME 9 TO 5 EYE COLOR QUARTET, DESERT ROSE

Hi!! happy new year!! this year may bring all the happiness in your life. its been a long time that i shopped lots of makeup together. recently i did a haul from different sites. eventually i'l do a haul video. but now i am doing this review on LAKME 9 TO 5 EYE COLOR QUARTET, DESERT ROSE. i think desert rose is the most hyped eye shadow from  lakme 9 to 5 eye shadow range. so, i decided to give a try.



price: 600 rupees( i got it from purple.com at 443 rupees)


size: 7gm

shades: it comes in 4 shades. 1)desert rose, 2) tanjore rush, 3)silk route, 4) smokey glam


packaging:It comes in a plastic box. there are four section where eye shadows are kept inside. there is a cute plastic lead. and a cotton bud thing for eye shadow application. no mirror though



texture: It has powdery finish with little bit of shimmery hint.




My Experience: when i ordered it i expected two light color and two deep color. when it came i found that  all are light colors. 1st color is vibrant yellow which is perfect for highlighting inner eye corners. 2nd color is a beautiful pink color with hint of shimmer in it. 3rd color is golden color. and 4th color is red copperish color. those are light colors and suitable for all skin tone. but if you want a smokey dramatic look this pallet won't help you in that matter. it will help you to create soft vibrant eye makeup.It stayed in the eyes for 5-6 hour with eye primer and 2-3 hour without eye primer.i think next time i will go for smokey glam for dark intense eye look.



PROS:
1. classy packaging
2. easy to carry
3.  staying power is good
4. no fallout issues

CONS:
1.no mirror
2.not suitable for smokey eye makeup

Rating: 6/10

My recommendation: hell ya!!!!!! lakme 9to 5 eyeshadow range is one of the best budget friendly eye shadows are available in india. i wish there was any dark color then it would have been the best pallet that anyone could ask for

Natio blush and bronze Palette, Sunkissed

hi guys long time no see. i was busy moving from one city to another.so i couldn't post for a while.
today i'l be reviewing on Natio blush and bronze Palette, Sunkissed. now those who didn't hear about Natio brand for them let me give a short introduction. it is actually a Australian based company and it is one of the leading cosmetics brand in Australia. Recently Nykaa and Amazon both are selling their products in india. Products are bit pricey as far as i think. but there was a sell going on and i saw this particular bronze palette and  grabbed it. As far as i have checked sell is still going on at amazon.




price: 1200 rupees( but i got at 250 rupees only....yayyyyy!!!)

size: 12gm

Ingredients:

shades: it come with two shades.   1. Sunkissed  and 2. Rossy glow



packing: It comes in a lovely black plastic box with a mirror in it. overall its very classy and not heavy at all. you can easily carry it into your purse and use it for fixing your makeup.




texture: its has powdery texture with little bit simmer in it. highlighter and two blushers have simmer but two bronzer doesn't have any shimmery particles in it.





My experience: first of all i was little bit anxious about the product. Very few products actually acted as a bronzer in my skin. i have a dark complexion. so, i have to choose very carefully when it comes to blusher bronzer highlighter. because what gives a stable finish to fair to medium skin doesn't work on me. but when i opened the product i actually loved it for its classy appearance. it has 1 highlighter, 2 blushers and 2 brozers. highlighter didn't suit me well. i think it'l suit cool tones or fair to medium tone. it definitely has simmers. it enlarged my pores and gave me a artificial finish. but i loved their blushes. 2 blushers are of pinky coral tone. now i have used lots of blushes. as far as i got to understand Orange color or deep coral colors suit me very well. pink is a big no for my complexion. but this two pinkish color have worked wonder to my skin. it gave me a very stable glow. blushes were not that visible but it gave me  a very soft glow to the skin.it has very mild simmer in the blushes. i loved two blushes truly. now 2 brozers are of golden color. it doesn't have simmer but for me it doesn't act as my bronzing component. it acts as a highlighter for me as i have warm undertone and its too light to be a bronzer for dusky skintone. overall i liked the product.



PROS:
1. Classy Packaging
2. has a mirror in it
3. two blushes will work wonder even for dusky skintone
4. if you have fair skin you will love it

CONS:
1. they could have reduce the presence of simmer
2. highlighter is no good for warm dusky skin tone
3. don't go over board with blushes otherwise it will enhance your pores.

Rating: 7.5/10



My recommendation: fair ladies should grab it and sale is still going on. so 250 is suitable price for this product. it will blow their mind. dusky beauties should go for Rosy glow. i think that palette has darker and suitable shades for dusky beauties. if they want they can go for sun kissed also. just don't get your hopes too high.

ADS WATERPROOF EYELINER

hi  guyz, today i am going to review ADS Waterproof eyeliner. i have purchased it from snapdeal.
com. at first i was bit skeptical about it. but my sister gave a positive review about it. so finally i tried it and i really got impressed. It is the cheapmost eyeliner available in the market. but its result is impressive compared to its price. thats why i am trying to share my experience here. lets start....



price: 50/ rupees(9ml approx)

Ingredient list:


packaging: it comes in a beautiful yellow plastic container. it looks more like a mascara. i have seen very few products in such a cheap price with such an attractive packaging.




Texture: It is watery and takes some time to dry off



my experience: 1st when i opened the box i got amazed after watching the liner, the packaging is so cute. it has long wand. so for the beginner this long wand handling thing will be bit difficult. after that if you apply it within a minute it will dry off and then you will get a totally smudge proof  liner. its not water proof as claimed but it is totally smudge proof. it gives nice dark black line. i had used lakme instaliner. so when i compared it with lakme insta liner i found ADS eyeliner more advantageous than lakme insta liner.
1) lakme insta liner takes some time to dry off. ADS dries off quickly than lakme insta liner.
2) lakme insta liner is smudge proof. but if you rub with bit of force it comes off. but ADS liner doesn't come off easily. that was very surprising for me.
ADS liner stays 5-6 hours in my eyes and it stared to get fade. i am totally satisfied with it. If you are beginner and looking for a cheap eyeliner you can definitely go for it. but as ADS is street makeup product if you have very sensitive eyes stay away from it. though i have sensitive eyes but i felt no irritation or any negative remarks of my knowledge.



PROS:
1) super cheap
2) it z smudge proof and it doesn't come off easily
3) more advantageous than Lakme insta liner

CONS:
1) long wand. too difficult to control.
2) its not waterproof

Rating:8/10

My Recommendation: Yes... its super cheap and handy. loved it.

kiss Beauty Highlighter & Contour Palette (4 shades)

hi guys today i am gonna review on kiss beauty highlighter and contour palette. now its a good thing that in India some contouring and highlighting palettes are available. In you tube if you follow channels of makeup experts you will see most of the contouring palettes are from western Brands. if you go through amazon.com then you will find there are many contouring pallets in 2-3 dollars. Luckily Indian cosmetics Market realized  the importance of contouring and strobing and felt the urges to introduce contouring pallets in the market. still big brands of India has no such pallets. less known brands like ADS and Kiss beauty have taken the initiative to introduce some palettes in the market.


price:235( from amazon.in)

Size: 12g



Ingredients:Castor oil,carnuaba wax, propylene wax, lanolin oil, white mineral oil, ozokerite wax, besewax, Propyl paraben, methyl paraben, vitamin E, C-47-051




packaging: It comes in a plastic box. In the box there are four palates. it will be convenient for  travel as it is small and very lees weight.


Texture: It has creamy texture. it easily blends. But if you apply too much you will look cakey. but with help of damp sponge you can over come it.




My Experience: I first saw lots of reviews in amazon about the 8 shade palette of kiss beauty.. then i came across many reviews in youtube channel. but i didn't want to spend a lot of money in highlight and contour palette because most of the color of concealer or contour disappoints me. they usually don't match my skin tone and i end up looking like a ghost. so after lot of hesitation i decided to go for its mini version with 4 shades. to my surprise the colors are perfect for dusky skin tone beauties. so obviously it will suit to fair skin tone beauties too. 1 st shade will be perfect as a highlighter for dark skin tone. then  2nd shade will be perfect as a color corrector as it is orange color. 3rd shade is perfect match to my skin tone.Last shade is dark brown which is ideal for contouring for dark skin tone girls.it blends very easily. as it is cream based product its texture is creamy. it doesn't leave any cast into your skin. there is a color corrector which is a plus point of this palette. if your skin tone matches you will find your concealer too from this palette. If you are in a search for contouring and highlighting pallet this can end your search. only let down thing is its fragrance. It has strong weird smell which is very annoying. but After sometime it will disappear.

PROS:
1. Ideal for Highlighter & Contouring
2. blends easily
3. creamy texture
4. It can work as concealer too.

CONS:
1. weird smell.
2. Too much application can result cakeyness

Ratings: 8/10

My Recommendation: Hell yaa!!! It is only budget contouring pallet available in the market. if you are a beginner go for it.
