One Stop Destination - Loreal True Match BB Cream

Love going on a holiday, be it just a short trip somewhere nice. The excitement of visiting new place and more over the break, that you really look forward to. Next week I am going on a short trip to Kodaikanal.  Packing is something I find very tedious. That's when you think that you need one product and you are done for the day, makes your life much easier.

Loreal True Match BB Cream is one stop destination for me.  Though I am not extremely happy with the product but meets my requirement to some extent as compared to the other BB /CC cream.

TOUCH OF COLOR - Loreal Lipsticks

Lipsticks really add a life to your face,  every shade for every mood. Feeling romantic - add on a dash of pink , summery - put  little coral or orange-y shade or you are in a mood to be bold,  than what better shade than red. 

While applying a bold red color on your lips, you can either feel too confident or too conscious. Depends on how comfortable are you in carrying bold colors. While some people carry it with ease while others prefer to go with much sober shades. 

Recently I bought two beautiful shades from Loreal. One in the Matte Moist while other is from their  Color Riche Range.  I have a Flaming Kiss from matte moist range which I totally love and had done a detailed review on the blog earlier. 

3 Products - Oriflame Lipstick, Loreal Matte Moist Lipstick and Inglot Body Sparkle

Good shades in lipsticks are hard to resist. I have picked up two very different shades, one from Oriflame Beauty Studio Artist Lipstick and the other one from Loreal Matte Moist range.  Loreal recently launched their Matte Moist Lippies and everyone are going ga ga over it.  I am going to review these two beautiful shades of lipstick along with Inglot Body Sparkle which I am so obsessed about.

Best Products of 2013...

I have come across many beauty products in 2013, few of them loved it  and others I did not like much  . There were many that I wanted to list down but then this post would be quiet a lengthy one. I have short listed few very good ones that I plan to stick around in 2014 as well.

Lets walk thru and see which products were really great in the year 2013....

Collective Product - Konad Loreal Lakme and more

I am going to review few collective product that i happen to pick up here in India and abroad. Short review about the product and if its worth buying.

Loreal True Match Blush 102 True Rose

Hey Friends,

As promised i am going to review today a very beautiful blush from Loreal Paris - 102 True Rose.
We all want at least one blush in our kit which looks totally natural and goes well with most of the outfit's, isn't it ??

Kerastase Resistance Bain Volumactive Shampoo and Conditioner from Loreal

Every women dreams of having a healthy mane and why not?  you look more beautiful when you have a nice healthy hair. In today's time we make our hair go thru so many things which are not good like ironing, blow drying, straightening, re-bonding, perming etc...which surely make us look beautiful but due to which we also face lot of problems like thinning of hair, hairfall, dandruff, dry scalp etc.

 

Loreal 4D Architect Mascara

L’Oreal now introduces the concept of Lash Architect 4D – a false lash effect in 4 Dimensions. In all seriousness, the 4 Dimensions L’Oreal refers to are – Volume, Length, Texture and Curl.

It claims that it’s the first mascara with sculpting fibers to wrap each lash giving them a magnetic 4D effect. It has 4mm long fibers which are undetectable and ultra supple. Besides that I'm quite happy to know this L'oreal Lash Architect 4D Mascara has the waterproof formula too!

Packaging: When I first saw this Mascara on the Loreal counter I was much attracted towards its color (the body is in teal color with a silver metallic cap) and also its shape which I must say is very attractive piece of work, thou I very well knew that just by getting attracted to the packaging is not going to serve my purpose :)) , hence I took a small demo of the mascara from the Loreal representative. 

The Wand: The wand is long, narrow, slim and fitted to an angle which makes it easier to apply the mascara.  The wand has a good length as compared to the other brands. Somehow I find this angle and length quiet good and easier while applying the mascara thou initially you might find it little odd as we are quiet used to small wands.

Bristles and Texture: The bristles of the wand are fine, sleek and designed in such a way thus help to catch up on all the small hair of the eyelid. Texture is smooth thou the curl effect is not that great. I like how black the color is. It does not stiffen, clump or harden your lashes after drying up. 

Past and Present: Earlier I was using Chambor Mascara which I was not too happy with. It used to make my eye lashes clumpy and heavy. It also used to give me an irritation so I had to discontinue using it. I wanted mascara which would give me length & volume. I was quiet happy picking up this mascara as it serves more than my purpose for everyday use and by far this is the best mascara I have come across. Its waterproof, does not smudge, gives me the required volume and length, Thou the curling effect is not that great but all in all I will say this is good mascara in all the other areas.  

  

Application: The key is to gently wiggle the applicator back and forth to separate the lashes. Apply double quote if the need be.

Pros

Packaging is very classy & impressive

Smooth Texture

Gives you good volume and length

Does not clump, stiffen or harden lashes after drying

Easy to apply

Cons

Expensive

Does not curl

Loreal 4D Architect Mascara is priced at INR 735/-

Rating: 7/10

Final Verdict 

After going in so much detailing, pros and cons I would say this is a good pick. Gives you length, volume, thou curling effect is not so great. Good for everyday wear, gives you a nice soft look. Does not stiffen, clump or harden lashes after drying. Thou I must say for Mascara the price is little expensive. If it does not pinch your pocket then this product is great.

Tip: While applying your mascara/linear it’s better to switch off the fan as it will save your mascara /linear in the bottle /tube in drying up fast.
