Lily Cole Lip & Cheek Dome 20 Pinch me Pink by TBS – Review & Swatch


Friend post by Tejinder kaur

Hi gals

Today I come with short review of cute Lily Cole Lip & Cheek dome.

What The Product claims:

Cream-to-powder colour for lips and cheeks that’s easy to wear and easy to blend. Wear it just as it is or under lip gloss. For lips and cheeks Natural-looking colour, dermatologically tested.




What I say:

The lip & cheek dome is very small, light weighted andvery handy product. It comes in two shades: Pinch me Pink and Crazy Coral. It has a crème to powder finish that feels lavish when applied and blends easily onto your skin. I bought Pinch me Pink one which is very natural candy pink shade that gives your lips and cheeks a natural and glamorous look. It’s suitable for people who have dry skin because it has a moisturising consistency. The Packaging is very cute came in dome shape and twisted clear lid. Colour is easily visible from that lid.


Pigmentation:

when you first run it over your skin there’s no colour at all. After a few swipes you get to the colour .The Pink is more pigmented than the coral.



Texture:

With the Creamy texture, it’s quite difficult to build it up to a highly visible colour on the skin. To make it more visible you can use regular Pink blush for better colour payoff. It really works well on
cheeks rather than lips. I have got Pink lips so it’s quite visible on my lips but I swipes 5-6 times. It is totally flattering colour. The smell is not good. It is suitable for all skin tones. When applying on lips it dries to a semi matte finish and does feel a little drying so be sure to use a balm underneath or any gloss on top.



Staying Power:

 It doesn’t stay longer. On my lips it stays 2-3 hours and on cheeks it stays not more than 3 hours. To make it stay longer put a light brush of any pink blush over, it lasts a maximum of 5-6 hours.

Price: £6.50 from EBay and £10 from TBS.


Pros:

• Gives a natural blush to the cheeks, and put a little on lips and
add gloss for a full lipped look.

• Great everyday product, takes seconds to apply.

• Easy to use and blend because of dome shape.

• Light weighted

• Travel Friendly

• No need of any brush to apply

• Gives Natural look.

• It’s great for people with dry skin

• It has a great Moisturising consistency

• Gives little sheer to skin

• Very Flattering shade

• Not to worry about getting messy

• Suitable for all skin tones

This is how it looks on me..i used it on my cheeks and lips as well..



Cons:

• Less Pigmentation.

• Shade varieties are less

• Staying Power not so good.

• Tasteless.

• Packaging is very small.

• A bit costly (in terms of Pigmentation and staying Power)


Overall Final Verdict: 

The product is average for me. Pigmentation is not good as need to swipes more to build up colour. But it is easy to use and very handy because of dome shape. It is good for dry skin as more creamy in texture. It is basically tasteless and doesn't really show up that much but gives my lips a slight tint and does makes my lips really nice. I don’t have to worry about getting messy (as in powder). I loveto use more on cheeks than lips because it gives a natural blush to the cheeks. Great everyday product, takes seconds to apply. Wish there were more colours.

Hope you like the review.

About the contest :

Jabong announces contest for bloggers and shoppers during festive season

As the festival of light is fast-approaching, Jabong online shopping store has announced a MEGA
CONTEST FOR INDIAN BLOGGERS. The contest went live on October 24, and would be open until the midnight of November 26.



The popular e-commerce portal has invited all passionate bloggers and shopaholics to voice out their opinions and views on the topic – ‘WHY I LIKE SHOPPING AT JABONG’. It is for the first time that the lifestyle e-store has directly reached out to the thousands of its customers through a web platform, after it saw a huge rise in its popularity among the Indian shoppers over the course of one year since its debut last November.

Jabong Bloggers Contest holds some nice prizes for the winners, which would be a perfect gesture
toward its consumers as the e-store brand completes a year in the online business. The best blog entry would be awarded a ₹5,000 GIFT VOUCHER, while the other top 5 entries would receive a ₹2,000 Gift Voucher each, and the next 5 entries would get a ₹1,000 GIFT VOUCHER each. This is,however, not all. Jabong has an exclusive surprise gift voucher for every single valid entry. That is like inviting everyone to the party and rewarding each of them with a sweet token of return gifts. It hints at the kind of spirit the company has for the people it earns its business from. Every blog entry would be judged by a panel of juries from within Jabong.

The rules for participating in the Jabong Bloggers Contest are simple. Write an original piece, share it with your friends and connections over social networks, paste the contest code, mentioned on the
website, on your blog and send the link of your blog URL to Jabong. The contest allows multiple entries from the same blogger, lest all such posts are on different blogs. Decisions upon the value of an entry would be decided on the basis of relevance, creativity and the buzz it creates online. The more people talk about your entry, the more chances you would have to win better. There is a levelled field of play for every single blogger as no one returns empty-handed during the festive period.

Jabong online shopping store has itself created a lot of buzz since its launch, with its prompt service,quick delivery time across India, a number of payment options, thousands of lifestyle products that include clothing, shoes, watches, sunglasses, cosmetics, fragrances, jewellery, toys, and home furnishings, and the availability of hundreds of top brands under a single roof.

Jabong Bloggers Contest would be one special occasion for every shopper and blogger to share their unique online shopping experience at Jabong, and it would also be one pretext for sharing a stronger rapport with the ever-expanding online lifestyle e-store of India. Even if blogging sounds Greek to you, it would be time to write your first post now, as this just might become your best moment of shopping delight this Diwali!


Good luck !!

These are Created with Alexandra Burke by MUA!!




 Lipstick and highlighting gloss that creates fuller curvaceous lips for a dramatic illusion of volume. There are 4 amazing ways to transform your lips and give them some Boom!
1. Lipstick alone for a matte look.
2. Lipstick with highlighter applied just to the centre of your lips to create a full volume illusion. 
3. Lipstick with highlighter all over for a super-glossy look. 
4. Highlighter alone for a sheer pearl finish.
There are 8 amazing shades in the range.

My experience with the product :
I love this shade..perfect for this winter season..the lipstick is full matte finish.applies well and evenly with full opaque colour.Although the lipstick is matte it is comfortable to wear and does not dry the lips.the highlighter is full of shimmer glitters,i prefer to use in the center of my lips..

My take on this product :
Well,i generally prefer body lotions with good fragrance ,this one just smells like Tropicana Guava juice,have ever tasted it..its my fav juice from tropicana range..i am very well impressed by the smell..








The texture is smooth and absorbs into the skin.It keeps me moisturising for 4-5 hours..not so bad..and the smell stays for no longer ...i am very happy for the reason their  products are not tested on animals..
