Coloressence Mesmerising Lip Color 45 Back To Basics Review

Pink is an indispensible color in the life of a girl. If you ask me, I would say that pink is what defines a woman. Ranging from nail paints to lipsticks in our closet – we all have something in pink. I am back with another lipstick from Coloressence that I brought and this time again it is a pink shade. But then, it is slightly different from the previous one. During this winter, I am experimenting a lot with pinks, wines and maroons to break out from the daily schedule. So do you want to know whether the lipstick impressed me or turned out to be a dud? Read on to know more about the product in detail.

My Experience With Coloressence Mesmerising Lip Color 45 Back To Basics:

The lipstick is encased in a sleek black twist up case with a plastic body. The name and number is written on the bottom. The cap of the lipstick shuts nicely ensuring a travel-friendly packaging. The shade is a slightly tricky one to describe. It is a blue based pink with fine golden shimmer on the lips but if you carefully look at the lipstick, it looks like a peachy pink with a golden sheen. The golden sheen isn't over the top but doesn't look pretty during day time. Hence the color is good for nightwear.

The shade is more of a cool based skin tone than warm one. The texture is as disappointing as the previous lipstick I used from this range. It is dry, but it glides over the lips comfortably. The lipstick starts making the lips dry after sometime and creases badly. The golden shimmers have the tendency to settle over the fine lines. Coming to its pigmentation, I would call it an average one. It takes 2-3 swipes to make the color comes out alive on my lips. The lipstick stays on my lips for 2-3 hours and slowly fades off. The staying power can be increased with a lip liner underneath.

Cons Of Coloressence Mesmerising Lip Color 45 Back To Basics:

• Staying power is not effective.

2.5/5

Final Note:

I am really surprised how the brand claims it to be a moisturizing lipstick! I found out that every lipstick from this range has this drying problem. This particular one is neither suitable for every occasion nor efficient in its quality. Therefore, you can give this a miss.
