hello all…
i am starting this thread to post reviews of different makeup products…specially Pakistani brands like christine, luscious, medora and etude etc..because there are no reviews for Pakistani makeup products online…So i request u all to post reviews of all Pakistani or international brands that u have used…
I am starting with Luscious foundation…
Well i dont usually use Mac or expensive brands foundation…i normally go for rimmel, diana of london or etude…Last year while shopping in isb i bought Luscious flawless foundation…the bottle is pretty good, nice and easy and foundation comes out easily…the price of foundaiton at that time was Rs550 i think…okay so about the foundaiton…as compared to revlon foundaiton that i was using those days, this luscious foundation was quite good…it is not so thick…and is really easy to blend..u only need to apply a little amount because it gives medium to full coverage…if u apply a lot u wil look caked up…
the only prob that i saw in the foundation was that it was not well saturated i dunno how to explaiun but their was some oil kinda liquid seperate from the foundation( i think due to remprature etc) i shaked the bottle well and the problem was solved…
i really liked the foundation…the shades are best for Pakistani skin tones…i liked all the shades and one easily matched my skin tone…the proce is really good..and it stays for a long time…not sooo long but still better than other foundations…i noticed one thing that after applying it regulary for 2-3 days my skin seemed to be a bit softer…my skin felt very nice and soft… now i use it daily and really like it…
so the pros are
easy to blend
reasonable price
good range of shades
makes ur skin soft
So form my side i’ll give it 8/10…and will recommend u to try it…
Please post ur reviews of different makeup products..
thanks
unfortunately i think till now they dont have shade for darker tones...the darkest is i guess honey or sand..but u can find good shades in revlon..they do have a large number of colors...
okay so now today i'll be reviewing Christine Eye pencils...
As i am focusing on Pakistani brands so i am goin to tell u about christine pencils...their are a large number of shades available in the ey pencils...and price is about 25 to 30 rupees...
i have used four of their colors green, violet, pink and natural...well but i am not at all satisfied...the pencils are not at all smooth and creamy...they are not well pigmented..and dont stay for a lonf time..however, if u want to line ur eyes for just practising, or just for 2 hours.u can use these eye pencils...
So, overall i didn't like the pencil quality much and don't wanna buy them again...will give them 2/10
Please post ur comments and reviews of products that u have used..
I used Atiqa odho's liquid eye liner and it was a disaster. It didn't glide smoothly plus the formulation was not good either.
I bought a lipstick from Christine a long time ago and i didn't like it either.
Medora nail polishes dry out or expire pretty quickly. I don't use them anymore either.
I guess the only Pakistani cosmetics brand we can rely on for now is luscious cosmetics, unless someone else decides to get in the competition as well.
Lol, don't..they're a waste of money. total nonsense.
there was a show on tv in which atiqa odho used to use her cosmetics on models and they looked beautiful.i think she uses her own cosmeticd on her pretty face.
Yeh, we who tried her cosmetics fell for the dingle dangle on the show as well. But i could literally see her eye shadows were not very pigmented even when she used them on her show. I used the mascara and my cousin bought her brand lipstick. We weren't happy customers just like many other people around.
Who here has tried Smashbox 'O-GLOW' Intuitive Cheek Color??
I have... too bright
same for gloss... but it reacts differently on everybody's skin
it's really bright pink on pale skin tones and a little better on tan skin
or maybe i am just not used to seeing fuschia on my cheeks :)
Kraylon.
i have used their foundation powder.
it's decent. nothing special. the only reason i bought it is because my aunt works at a beauty parlour and she told me about it, and since i failed to find a color for my skin tone in america i thought maybe a pakistani brand would work work me. so far i haven't used it much but the color doesn't look bad on me so that's a good thing.
i have Bobbi-Browns skin foundation with spf-15.,for me this is plain waste of money.After trying many shades,Sales person there gve me Natural shade.I look very very dark with this foundation instead of compliments …arey what happened u r looking very dark :sigh:
NExt in my list is MUFE.
i bought this lo'real's true match and am wheatish but not dark in complexion and it suited me pretty well ,it has light and natural finish and i am usin golden rose face powder, its so fab, its so close to my skin tone and it doesnt make me look cakey.
now i use it daily and really like it…
