The Body Shop shade 05 delipscious SHEER elderberry – Review and Swatches !!

Friend post by Tejinder kaur 

Hi everyone hope u all r fine..nice to cum back again in this blogging world .,.i had a good trip to India for two months..and fully enjoyed with my family..
had an awesome trip n samar my son enjoyed a lot n learned Punjabi as well....

Now cum back to my review..



Today I come up with short review of body shop elderberry lipstick. Elderberry is a lovely plum lipstick from TBS new delipscious line, which claims to have all-natural, food-grade ingredients. 

What Product Claim:






Sheer moisturising lip Colour with a fruity flavour. Made with food-grade ingredients including natural blueberry and pomegranate seed oils. It looks like a dark purple in the tube, but it's actually a very pretty reddish purple - a plum...

Packaging: 



A sleek metal tube with apples on the bottom half, and the product name on the top half. It is attractive, Simple and stylish.



Pigmentation:

Pigmentation is not good. Need to swipe 2-5times to build up the colour.Lasts only 2-3 hours without eating or drinking, but if you eat or drink need to reapply.The product is very tasteless as thought that product would taste like elderberries as name represent; unfortunately it didn't taste like anything. It does have a berry-like smell but that also doesn't last on my lips. The moisture level is pretty good. This lipstick gives lips a hint of sheer colour with a beautiful, high-quality sheen.



Colour Description: 

It is dark purple colour in the tube but on the lips it doesn't show its effect. I prefer to use as a gloss over lipstick as one swipe gives good glossy effect. It is lovely and wearable colour.

Texture: 

It is very soft, thin and smooth but not creamy. It is suitable for all skin types.

Quantity: 2 g

On my lips



Price: £5 from The Body Shop  ( I bought in sale )
