Oriflame The ONE Eye Liner Stylo Black Review, Swatches

ABOUT:Oriflame The ONE Eyeliner Stylo has a soft felt tip which delivers a smooth, precise line without dragging or stopping.  It is suitable for contact lens wearers, and is Ophthalmologically tested.  The intense pigments deliver rich colour intensity and have been given a positive response of 99% when consumer tested on 67  women. Also it lasts upto 24 hours.

PRICE:rs.499 for 0.8ml

PACKAGING:The packaging is quite simple and nothing fancy.It has a normal pen style packaging and a little thick tip as compared to normal pen liners available.I find this tip better for precise application and it is great for beginners.It is easy to store,find and is travel friendly.

SHADE:The One eye liner stylo in Black is a deep intense black.It is glossy on application but becomes semi-matte after a while.

MY VIEWS:The liner looks quite wet on application but soon dries up.It doesn’t sting to eyes and application is super easy with it.The thick tip enables precise application and it is easy to apply a single line in 1 stroke.

Normally,it is difficult to get even line with liquid liners but there is no such issue with this liner.It is not waterproof but stays put for about 7-8 hours.I love how intense it looks on eyes.

It is difficult to remove this liner with normal cleanser so an oil based cleanser is needed.

RATING:4/5

RECOMMENDATION: Yes,I recommend this to those who are new to pen style application of liquid liner or those who want precise application.However,this might not be the best pick for those who prefer absolute matte finish and thin line.

Oriflame Beauty Studio Artist Loose Powder Illuma Flair Review

ABOUT:Ultra-fine loose powder in a translucent formula to suit every skin tone. Sets make-up, keeping complexion shine-free and flawless. Contains light-reflecting Illuma Flair™ complex for a natural and luminous result in any light.

PRICE:rs.649 for 7 gm

PACKAGING:The packaging is simple but I like it as the transparent round body with a black cap makes the overall packaging look sleek.It has a swifter inside to control the amount of product that comes out.However,my tub got upside down and the entire powder has come up.

SHADE:The powder itself is white in color but once applied,it dusts off and has a translucent effect.It is a great product as it provides a matte finish without altering the shade of the foundation.

MY VIEWS:The texture of the powder is very smooth.It is finely milled and doesn’t feel abrasive on skin.It is easy to apply and blends easily into the skin giving a matte appearance to the face.However,it doesn’t make the face look flat but adds a soft glow to it.It doesn’t provide a white cast also.

I am using this for over a month now and loving it as it quickly makes the face matte and I am ready to go. Also,the matte look stays for about 6 hours max which is quite impressive.However,this might not be your choice if you are looking for a powder that provides coverage.

RATING:4.5/5

RECOMMENDATION:I highly recommend checking this out.It is very soft and delicate in texture.The formula is great and it is worth the price tag.

Oriflame Tender Care Protecting Balm(Coconut) Review,Swatches & Pics

ABOUT:A totally versatile pot of magic based on bees wax and vegetable oils. Use on sides of eyes, lips, face, cuticles or any area which is dry, sore or roughened to instantly restore softness.

PRICE:rs.249 for 15ml.

PACKAGING:The packaging is uber cute and one of the main reason to stock this balm.I have tried the Vanilla one before and loved it but I couldn’t resist this coconut one for the chocolate outer packaging which adds a further touch of luxe to the wonderful product.The code number of the balm is provided below.

THE BALM:The balm is a rich emollient petroleum jelly kind of product. It is very similar to Vaseline but this one is less thick and less sticky in texture.

MY VIEWS:Its been more than 3 years I have been using these protective balms and they have always shown results.I have been using this on dry lips,cuticles,rough toes,dryness around the nose and this little beauty helped me solve all the products.It is very moisturizing but not greasy.

The balm instantly gets absorbed into the skin.It doesn’t make my skin look oily even in summers.The result is also immediate as the dryness goes away quickly.I love the mild coconut fragrance that it has.It is very light and soothing.The formula is great for everyone,for dry skinned as well as oily skinned but over application can definitely lead to greasiness.

RATING:5/5

RECOMMENDATION:I have used so many creams,gels and lotion but my final resort is always on this.It is an essential product in my vanity and I will continue to use it forever.

MY VIEWS: The texture of the eye shadow is buttery smooth.It is easy to apply without any crumbling or streaking effect.The formula is very easy to use and you don’t need to dig your brush or swipe it again and again to get the product.It doesn’t fade out or creases for good 6-7 hours which is quite impressive.

The shade itself is decently pigmented and 1-2 swipes are enough to get intense shade.Also,you can sheer it out as per need.It works great as an eye shadow base as well.I have tried using this under Bourjois eyeshadows and it did increase the shade intensity of the powder shadows and provide metallic effect.

You can use this alone with some brown shadow in the crease for a plum smoky look or accentuate the look by adding more colors.
