Review of
Elle 18 color pops matte lipstick- Rockstar red:
The
lipstick comes in an all-black plastic bullet. The cap has a girl face printed
on it and at the bottom of the bullet the shade name is printed. Since it is
opaque you have to open the lipstick every time to check shades if you have
more than one lipstick from this range. Or you could memorize the shade and its
corresponding shade name J J
The
shade rockstar red is a beautiful red colour which is beautiful on my dusky
skin. People with dusky skin usually avoid red lipsticks because it might look
gaudy on them. But the shade rockstar red is so beautiful it’ll suit all indian
skin tone. The colour pay-off is good and when it fades it leaves a nice tint
on the lips.
The
texture of the lipstick is creamy and it glides on the lips smoothly. The
lipstick settles to a creamy matte finish. It does not dry out the lips. The
lipstick doesn’t feel heavy and I actually forget that I’m wearing a lipstick.
It is that light. It takes a minute to set to a matte finish and lasts for
about two hours on my lips. After that reapplication is a must. It doesn’t
survive meals or drinks.
The
product is cheap and is suitable for beginners. It doesn’t cost much. So I’d
give this lipstick double thumbs up!!
How
do I rate it? 3/5.

Conclusion:
Comparatively,
I like grape riot shade best because it makes my face brighter. I really like
this lipstick for its colour pay-off and it is budget friendly. I’d give this
product double thumbs up and would recommend this to all. Thank you. Meet you
again with another review.
