Rimmel London Colour Show Off Lipstick - Shocking Pink: Review

Hello all beautiful girls! :) So, here I am back with another review of my Rimmel London Color show off lipstick, which I bought from Germany. I particularly chose to buy this typical bright shocking pink shade, coz I had all nude shades till then and I wanted to experiment with bright shades! Also, the bright color made me feel good while shopping in gloomy, cold and rainy weather of Germany. It was priced around 6 - 7 Euros at Muller.

What the company says about the product: 
"100% pure color intensity. Velvety-soft finish. Long-lasting."

Below is my verdict on the lipstick:

Pros:
  • I was particularly attracted by its casing. The lipstick has this wonderfully designed, appealing and typically feminine packaging. 
  • The texture is extremely smooth and glides like butter on your lips. 
  • Surprisingly for me, the shade worked quite well with me. I may give a try to other shades like Be bold, and Kiss me too.
  • I can easily build the texture using this lipstick. I can use it lightly to get a regular day wear look, and build the color depending on the occasion and need. So, it basically solves all purposes! :P
  • Stays for quite long. I have experienced it staying for almost 3-4 hours.
  • Gives a balanced matte effect. The lipstick doesn't have shimmers. The matte is also not absolute matte. It is just in perfect balance.
  • Doesn't dry out my lips. In fact the lipstick is really light on my lips and moisturizes it as well.. :-*


Cons:
  • I need to find some stores in India, where I can try other colors of this brand as well.
  • The casing though quite beautiful and attractive, looks a bit fragile to me. I haven't dropped the lipstick till now, but it looks like, one single drop can break the case./:)
  • None other than these.
  • Below is a pic of how it looks with light stroke, which I usually wear in day time:

Syoss Professional Performance Repair Therapy Shampoo - Review

Syoss Professional Performance Repair Therapy Shampoo During my visits to Germany, I spend a lot of time watching TV commercials, because of the only reason that I can somehow understand bits and pieces of them. I wasn't intending to buy any huge bottles, during my last trip, but I was so much intrigued by Syoss's continuous ads on the television, that I decided to give it a shot. I bought Syoss professional repair therapy shampoo from Muller mall, Germany. It has been 3 months now, since I've been using this shampoo and hence thought of reviewing it here.

Olay Natural White Lotion With Mulberry Leaf Extracts - Review

Olay Natural White Lotion With Mulberry Leaf Extracts  The best way to spend four hours of waiting period in Dubai transit is to do shopping. In all the shopping I did there, I bought this particular lotion as well. The main reasons behind buying this lotion were: 1) I wanted to try Olay as a brand as I’d heard a lot of good stories about it. 2) I wanted a light moisturizing face lotion that has SPF, UVA/UVB protection and could be worn easily below my foundation for day wear. Olay Natural White Lotion With Mulberry Leaf Extracts Price: $10 Quantity: 30 ml What does Olay say about its Natural White lotion ?

Neutrogena Moistureshine Gloss - Review, Swatches

Neutrogena Moistureshine Gloss - Review I began to use Neutrogena brand long back, when I was in US. The first product I bought of this brand was a liquid foundation, which was my first foundation of all. And, as expected I chose the wrong shade and had to throw it away. The second thing I bought sometime back was this Neutrogena Moistureshine LipGloss , which apparently happens to be my first tinted lipgloss too, as before this I was used to only lipsticks or lip balms.It took me a while to get used to the concept of glosses. I bought the shade 04 Glimmer: Neutrogena Moistureshine Gloss Like usual glosses, it comes
