Elle 18 Color Pops Lipstick Peach Kiss Review

Hello everyone! Hope you all are doing well. Today I am here to review a lipstick from Elle 18. Elle 18 products are like the sweet nothings of life. I love to collect these cute little artifacts every time I go out to buy some stuff for myself. In our daily life, we all love to experiment with ourselves and that brings us immense joy. This lipstick shade called Peach Kiss is one such product. Early morning I simply don't feel like going loud with my lips. I like my pale lips when I step outside. Therefore, I chose this color which would give a subtle touch of tint to my lips. So how different is this Elle 18 lipstick from others? Let's find out.

My Experience With Elle 18 Color Pops Lipstick Peach Kiss:

Packaging: Elle 18 lipstick comes in a plastic bullet shaped body with a cartoon of a cute chick on the body. It is of a twist up function and a cap that shuts with a click. The packaging is not only cute and girly but also travel-friendly as well. It is very light weight and hence can be carried anywhere.
Shade: The shade Peach Kiss is indeed a sheer peach color with a brown undertone and loaded with golden micro shimmers. Personally, I felt that the color would have been a prettier one if the golden shimmers were not added. Nevertheless, the color is extremely sheer and sometimes looks like an MLBB shade for Indian skin tones with both warm and cool tones. The color would be suitable for office and is apt in those days when you just want a tint of golden peach on the lips.

Texture & Smell: If you carefully notice the swatches, you would find that a white layer is inserted in the lipstick i.e. the cocoa butter. This makes the lipstick moisturizing and it glides over the lips like a dream. Though it doesn't look overtly glossy, it keeps the lips moisturized for long. There is a typical smell of flower but that isn't that overpowering.
Pigmentation: The pigmentation is very poor. In the hand swatch, I literally rubbed it several times to at least bring out the color properly and this goes same for the lip swatch too. Although it should be mentioned that over layering of this lipstick doesn't feel heavy on the lips.
Staying Power: The lipstick stays for 2-3 hours and fades off leaving a slight tint which shall not be visible on pigmented lips. The color does not survive if you have snacks or drinks.

Pros Of Elle 18 Color Pops Lipstick Peach Kiss:

• Cute and travel friendly packaging.

• A perfect color for office and can also be MLBB color for Indian skin tones.
• The texture is smooth and glides well over lips.

Diva Likes Rating:

3/5

Final Note:

I would like to conclude that I noticed a sudden price hike on Elle 18 color pops lipstick series. There is absolutely no issue with the minimum hike but they didn't consider the quality to improve. Next time, I am hoping that they give us better quality products.
