becute lipstick

 this lipstick is a light pink color suitable for everyday makeup look .
the texture is creamy, and lasts on my lips for 4 hours. has a faint scent

becute lipstick 


shade  439


confession this is actually my first ever red lipstick  its a bit late as the bold 
red look was last year's trend. (this year its tangerine ) my mother ws not happy
when i purchased it she totally disapproved of this color
this color is a nuetral red so looks best on every skin tone
and makes my teeth look white too :)

this lipstick has  a little scent which becomes subtle after few minutes

Lipstick review ( part 1)




Medora is one of the most used cosmetic brands in Pakistan. Almost every Pakistani female is familiar with it. It used to rule the makeup shelves when most of the Pakistani female population was unaware of brands like revelon,rimmel, etc
For the past few years Medora has some what become extinct from the makeup counter so when I spotted these in a local cosmetic shop I bought a few colors for my self immediately

PRICE:110 pkr

Packaging: it’s a golden tube with a grey cover and lid. (Not so cheap looking)



Lipsticks are available in various finishes like matte, shimmer, semi matte and I believe frost too they come in various shades too seriously when I looked at the testers I had trouble deciding which shade to pick.they have alight scent which was nt unpleasant in my opinion. these lipsticks come with both a name and a number (a word of advice if you want to buy similar shades like these then tell the sales person the no of the lipstick rather than name because most of them cant read)

Quantity: about 3.9g (it was not written on the package but I compared it with my other lipstick bullet)

Today I am reviewing three of the lipsticks two of them are matte while one  has finely crushed glitter in it

SHADE :

VERY CURRENT 252

This a very deep berry color suitable for autumn and quite wearable in winter too.it is matte and its texture is smooth. It has no shimmer or glitter particles in it

SHADE:

FLAVOUR  216

This is my favourite shade in all three lipsticks it a coraly pink nude lipsticks and gives a very natural color to the lips.i wear this shade to college. If your are a tudent or like nude pink lipsticks this one is just the right shade for you. I think this also wearable for every skin tone, this is also very creamy(my first bullet just broke off because of it). Totally love this shade



SHADE:

GLITTTER 815

This lipstick is brown in color and has finely crushed golden glitter n.the glitter is not gritty. I usually wear this shade on top of another lipstick just to give an extra bling effect to my lips looks amazing on top of red lipstick J

from L-R  glitter 815 , flavour 216 very current 252



These lipsticks can be some times feel drying on the lips so do exfoliate your lips before wearing these.they have excellent pigmentation (all of them) they stayed for like six hours on my lips and after that still left a light stain on my lips. Easily available, very affordable. Have a very vast range of shades to choose from


I will rate these 4.5 out of 5
