Lakme Enrich Satin Lip Color Review

Description :
Smooth, glossy lips kissed with the luxurious conditioning of Vitamin E.
Blended with Sunscreen and Olive Extracts for a creamy coat of lush color.
Available in 8 sumptuous shades developed especially for Indian skin tones.

~ Review ~
Texture ~ Smooth, long lasting, highly pigmented and does not dry up my lips at all. I hate to admit it, but this lipstick has impressed me to the core. My intention was to buy it, review and then give it away to somebody, but now I want to keep it for myself because it has managed to soften my 'change-of-season' chapped lips, which my other lip balms have failed to do recently. It could double up as a lip tint too when dabbed on lightly and blended with fingers.

Scent ~ It has that unmistakable classic lipstick scent, like the lipstick my mom had at a time when all I cared about was fairytales. But it doesn't bother me because it is not very strong.

Packaging ~ Encased in a cute burgundy-colored satin-look tube with a gold upper end, it looks quite classy.


Shade ~ In the pictures above I'm wearing #128. It sure is a chameleon of a color. The color that is closest to the one I see in the mirror is the first one (1.)

Price ~ Reasonably priced at Rs.225. 

Buy again? Very unlikely. I think this lipstick is like a fling ~ good while it lasts, but when it's over, it's over. Time to look for true love....or another fling.

Unless, they offer more shades - lighter, fresher, summer shades. With matching tubes. Can't help imagining a salmon pink lipstick in a matching salmon pink-colored tube. Now that is true love material.

Rating ~ ♥♥♥♥♥ (3/5)

  12. Good review Cynth..But I am totally off Lakme now. Probably I would buy only one product from them-jewel sindoor and that too coz Rati had given a good review..

    Other than that lakme is history to me now :-D

    But this lipstick really looks superb on you sweetie.

I ♥ finding little notes in my Vanity Case, so do drop one. I read all of them & I try my best to reply to each & every one of them [check back in 2-3 days =D] but most times it's physically impossible! Either way, I love to hear from you & really appreciate you taking the time out to share your thoughts <3

Thank you for reading! :)
