NELF Kissproof Professional Lip Color Review

Nelf Cosmetics,one of the fastest growing cosmetic company in India, is coming up with its new HD (High Definition) product range shortly. This HD range will offer products for full face makeup including face, eyes and lips :) Out of this 'to-be-introduced' cosmetics range, Nelf sent me two products for review.

Today, I'm up with a review on their Kissproof Professional Lip Color.

This lipcolor is a actually a liquid formula which are in-vogue these days. It comes in a cylindrical glass bottle that is transparent and the color identity is evident from outside. There is an easy-to-use applicator attached to the screw cap that lets you fill the lips. The glass bottle further is contained in a black cardboard box on which price label, mfg date and shade number is mentioned. The ingredients list is missing from bottle as well as the outer carton.

The lipcolor has a creamy texture that spreads effortlessly on lips using the applicator. While my first application, I expected it to be sticky. But it feels lightweight on lips. Give it a few minutes, and you'll be amazed to see how magically the lipcolor sets to a complete natural matte finish. I mean, I was really surprised to see the transformation. A full-coverage pigmentation is another plus for this product, requires no layering up to build color.

Talking about the shade of lipcolor, this one (no. 101) is a nude shade which doesn't compliment my skin a lot. probably, it's because I don't wear any makeup on my face. But I recommend creating a bold nude lip statement to balance a sultry or smoky eye look for those who master eye-makeup ;) I blend/layer nude lipcolor with a bolder one so as to suit my dusky complexion.

Now comes the most amazing thing, this lipcolor that claims to be Kissproof actually lasts really long despite being a silky liquid formula. I had my usual intake of water and tea etc during the day, but it didn't come off or fade. Yeah! I kissed my boy with his permission (who ensure No Lippie on my lips) and it didn't transfer :)

Highly recommend for its long wearing capability (specially when you don't have time for frequent touch ups)

For a price tag of INR 450 (will be available on Nelf website soon), the lipcolor works to the precision of a Professional. My only wish is to own some other shades that may brighten my skin tone.

Nelf USA Velvet Touch Lipstick Review in Radiant Magenta

I'm really glad to have come across this relatively new cosmetic brand NELFusa. I shared my views on their nail enamels in my previous post. And here comes another makeup product that I am crazy about i.e. Lipstick ;) 

Product Info:

An innovative, incredibly smooth, extra shine lip color. Infused with Vitamin E & jojoba oil, this high shimmer lip color brings glamour and nourishment together. The astounding smooth velvety touch glides effortlessly with comfortable wear. Available in lush & stunning shades for that perfect breathtaking look.

Packaging:

The Velvet Touch lipstick collection are packed in sober black case with brand name clearly written in silver font. The label on the cap mentions the shade number and the label at the bottom reads the shade name. The black cap shuts with a click sound and doesn't get loose while lying in your vanity kit.

Price:

You can buy the Velvet Touch Nelf Lipsticks at Rs 240 each. The lipstick weighs 4.2 gms. 

My take on the product:

I got Velvet Touch NELF lipstick in a shade called Radiant Magenta. Its a fabulous hot shade that makes your complexion look glowing. 

The texture of the lipstick seemed creamy to look at. The moment I swiped the lipstick once on my lips, I was super impressed with its excellent pigmentation. It gave flattering finish in one go that made me genuinely surprised, because I'm in a habit of two to three swipes to flaunt the deeper shade mostly. Also I could smell soft, non-irritating fragrance on application.

There is a shine on the lips initially which settles after a while and doesn't look oily. The lipstick is enriched with Vitamin E and Jojoba Oil that actually keeps the lips moisturized without any uncomfortable dry feel. 

There is issue of minor transfer while sipping liquids. But it happens with most lipcolors, so doesn't bother me much. On a usual day, it stays on my lips for almost 5-6 hours without total fade off depending on frequency of intake of food etc.   

In short, the Velvet Touch Radiant Magenta lipstick from NELF cosmetics is a lead-free, budget-friendly, long wear lipcolor with lovely color payoff and hydrating ingredients. And if Radiant Magenta is not your pick, there are as good as 30+ shades to choose from and definitely there is one for everyone. Do check the entire range to find what shade is calling you :)
