Luscious Cosmetics - Super Moisturizing Lipstick - Daisy Pink.


Hello Beautiful!

I'm here with another lipstick review. I reviewed Masarrat Misbah Makeup Lip Varnish in Lust previously. This time it's Luscious Cosmetics Super Moisturizing Lipstick in Daisy Pink. You must have seen this lipstick popping up on my Instagram from time to time and I also used it in a couple of Makeup Looks which I will link at the end of this post. 

What Luscious Cosmetics says?



Luscious Cosmetics offers 23 beautiful shades that range from nudes to vibrant colors in the Super Moisturizing line.



My Thoughts:

Packaging: It comes in a black card-board packaging. I love the sleek silver expensive-looking cylindrical lipstick bullet. The lipstick doesn't feel cheap or plastic-y at all and the cap clasps shut with a click. The shade name is mentioned on a sticker at the bottom. It's travel friendly for sure.




Color: It is described as a "delicate nude pink". On my lips, it's a beautiful mauve-y pink. The shade is perfect for everyday wear. It looks so sophisticated for office and work use and gives just the perfect pink color to the lips. The color pairs up perfectly with subtle and dramatic eye makeup.

Scent: There is no distinct or strong smell. It just slightly slightlyyyy smells plastic-y but that is very very subtle and dissipates after application. 

Formula & Application: It's exactly what it's called, a super moisturizing lipstick with amazing pigmentation that goes on opaque in one swipe! I pretty much summed up the formula and application, didn't I? 
It is a creamy and moisturizing formula that has a satin finish and feels so comfortable on the lips, doesn't emphasize the dry patches and settle much into the fine lines. One swipe is all you need for opaqueness although I like to go over my lips twice and it glides on smoothly. It doesn't get patchy at all no matter how many layers I put. The pigmentation is incredible!

Lasting Power: This lipstick has lasted for 3 hours on me after which it faded somewhat evenly with it getting lightest on the inner rim. It disappears from my lips if I eat but that's what mostly happens with most my lipsticks. Creamy and moisturizing formulas usually don't last that long and I don't mind re-applying it as I just love how much the color compliments me!



Here you can see it applied to my lips and more swatches! Do you guys prefer Lip Swatches or Hand Swatches? Let me know in the comments.

Weight: 0.12 oz / 3.5 g

Price: Rs. 645 (PKR)

Availability: Website, Scentsation, Naheed Supermarket (Khi).

I would rate this 5 on 5 because this has become my absolute favorite really fast and I have been wearing it almost every day the past two months! I have found my favorite pink with this lipstick!







Here are the makeup looks I did in which I've used Daisy Pink:
Valentines Makeup Look. (Option 2)
Silver Glittery Winter Glam.
New Year's Glam.

I got it from Luscious Cosmetic's website www.iloveluscious.com for Rs. 645. I'm definitely definitely going to get more shades from the Super Moisturizing line because I'm really impressed with the formula and pigmentation! Would I re-purchase if I run out of it? Ohhhh yes! What are your favorite pink lipsticks?

Until next time, Good Luck and Ciao!

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream - Zurich

Hi there beautiful, (:

I got this along with some other products from NYX that I haul, I'll share the complete haul in an later post. Since out of all products I started using this first and have been using it more than the others I decided to finally review it.
There are a total of 21 shades in the Soft Matte Lip Cream line and they are all gorgeous!


I got 3 shades out of these and I'm gonna review and share swatches with you for Zurich.


What does NYX says?


I decided I'll mention the ingredients too.


My Thoughts:
These Lip Creams come in a plastic bottle with a smooth matte (I love how it feels) black cap and has a doe-foot applicator. The packaging is sturdy and travel friendly as the plastic is not that squeezy type but hard and sturdy. The shade is mentioned on the bottom of the bottle.

Zurich is a pretty peachy nude color. The formula definitely is buttery soft that dries down to a matte that is not drying on the lips, I find it a comfortable matte to wear but it doesn't go on smoothly, at least on my lips. The pigmentation is good but I'm honestly just meh about it wearing this on its own because I need to apply at east two coats to make it smooth and opaque. I tend to smooth it out with the pad of my ring finger because I feel the applicator makes it streaky. Am I being to critical? Well maybe but that's just how I feel with this particular color. I advise you to exfoliate and moisturize your lips before applying it because it tends to dry and look patchy and flaky if I apply it to my lips when they're dry and not exfoliated.


I really really like the color, I just do not like how it applies on my lips with the applicator. Also when I apply more than one coat in an attempt to smooth it and get the right pigmentation it dries down and look a little patchy.
I like to pair it with dramatic eyes and when I'm not wearing any makeup I smooth it down on my lips lightly with my finger, that gives a healthy look to my lips. Another way I have been wearing it a lot lately is to combine it with my Maybelline Coffee Craze. I'll share this combination too after reviewing and swatching Maybelline Coffee Craze.

Do you see that patchy-crusty area in the inner rim of my lips?


Well that was it on Zurich, I really like the color, I love to mix it in with my other lipsticks but not a fan of how it applies with the applicator and how it looks on my lips.
I hope this was helpful for you.

I'll rate Zurich a 3.5 on 5.

I got this for $6 from the NYX website. NYX does not deliver to Pakistan though.

Let me know how you find Zurich if you own one. I would love to read from you (:

Until next time, Good Luck and Ciao! (:
