Lakme Gypsy Collection Sheer Satin Lip Gloss Swatches & Review


Drench your lips in molten shine, with this smooth, feather-light gloss for hours of dazzling, mirror-like shine. Infused with moisturizing vitamins so you can treat your lips to an ultra-comfortable, satin finish.
Available in 8 shades.


They first thought that came to my mind when I saw these lip glosses was they're very attractive. There's something about that tube design that draws your attention, like a glamorous petite blonde girl. 


Review:
They are very moisturizing, pretty long lasting (didn't wear off after a cup of tea), and adheres to the lips well without feeling sticky. Except for #61 (which is Clear), all of them have shimmer, but it's not the type that is a pain to remove and not the kind of shimmer particles that manage to travel all over your face.
I think everyone will find at least one likable shade. I also think Rs.325 is a very reasonable price for this quality (the gloss & packaging)
*The best part: They smell like bubblegum. 'Boomer', if I'm not mistaken. I haven't had it in a really long time. Otherwise any pink colored bubblegum I used to have. They taste mildly sweet too.
I honestly can't find anything I don't like about these lip glosses. I love them!


A rather amusing flaw:
The mirror on top of the applicator. I mean, what is up with that?! You can't apply the lip gloss and see in the mirror at the same time haha =D. But when you think about it, where else would they put it?

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! :)
