Lush Chilli Tingle Vegan Lip Tint - Swatch and Review and a Glossy box giveaway by Krupa

Chilly Tingle - It is the name which prompted me to buy it
 I haven't been sure that i can carry orange color on lips. I thought if i don't like,i can gift to some one.I know lot of people who really likes orange lippie.Are you one of them them?


What Lush telling about the Chilli Tingle?
"

Hoja Santa – over here, mate.  Got anything in that sack to moisturise lips and give them a lovely orange red tint?

Chilli Tingle is the answer. Inspired by a trip that Alecommy, our Italian colleague, took to Mexico. We loved the ingredients he brought back so much, we put them all in here. First there was some lovely dried chillies, which we thought would be great for stimulating the lips and waking up the blood supply in winter. Then there’s hoja santa – an aromatic herb known as ‘sacred leaf’. He also brought back annatto seeds, which have such a strong natural red colour in their seeds that the bush is known as the Lipstick Tree.

We then asked Jemma at our R&D labs to make a lovely blend of colours to compliment the annatto, and she came up with this beautiful orange red blend.

All that was left for us to do was make a lovely moisturising base of jojoba oil and our chocolate-smelling fair trade cocoa butter. Then add some candelillia wax and japan wax to seal the lips and give a barrier against the winter weather and to hold that lovely colour on the lips.

Perfect! Hot lips for chilly times."

Ingredients :
Organic jojoba oil, organic fair trade cocoa butter, candelilla wax, organic agave nectar, icing sugar, organic ground chilli, dried yerba santa, annato seeds, and titanium dioxide.Colour 73360, Colour 14700, Colour 19140
Price : 570 Rs(In sale i got for 285 Rs)


My experience :
Package : 
It is a small aluminium tub  with screw open lid. Nothing special.It is travel friendly because of the screw open lid.

Texture and Smell:

Texture is waxy which melts easily on hand and almost become liquidy.

But it have a tendency to settle on flaky lips or fine lines.

It smells like.... chilly? :p..i don't know how to describe the smell,i don't love or hate that smell. And smell fades as soon as it is applied.

Color:

On my lips,to my relief it is not a neon orange but a beautiful coral color. But there is come cool  undertones and may not be suitable for every one. 

Moistruisation: It is not at all moisturising.You definitely needs a good  lipblam beneath.

Staying Power : Without  eating or drinking it stays  a decent time of 3-4 hour on lips.

I thought there might be some pleasant tingling sensation in lips due to the name,but unfortunately no such tingling sensation.And last but not least definitely it is not chilly flavoured  :p


Pros:
a) A nice coral color for summer.
b) No chemical ingredients.A vegan product.
c) Well pigmented.
d) Decent staying power.


Cons:
a) Not much moisturising as the claim.
b) Color might not suit every one.
c) Exfoliated lips required.
d) Expensive for the quantity.

What Maybelline telling is truth. I am falling in love with the color all over again. It is such a pretty Berry Pink shade.I doubt whether any one can escape its charm.It will suit all skin tones i believe.

On closer inspection you can see minutes glitter particles,it is very minute that it doesn't show on lips,just gives a glossy effect.

Packaging : It have a simple yet pretty sleek package.Through the transparent body we can see the color which is very convenient.

Brush : Usual doe foot applicator

Texture :Creamy texture.contains very minutes glitter particles.Nonsticky and won't settle on fine lines ..yay

Moisturisation : It  doesnot dry out lips and is quite moisturised. When i done overaction by adding lipbalm under, it bleeded ;).You can see in blow picture if you look carefully.

Pigmentation: It is quite  pigmented and gives opaque coverage.

Ohh..i think again i have to show you people my 'big mouth'. Believe me even i don't like  my lips :p

Staying power : Around 2-3 hours with out eating,after that fades out leaving a tint on lips.

c) Non sticky

d) Opaque coverage.

e) Won't settle down in fine lines.

f) Mild sweet scent

g) Economical

Vaadi Herbals Lipbalm Review and Swatch

Think you buying an expensive high end  brand with great excitement and finally it turns out dud.It hurts lot na?.Think the reverse.You buying a cheap product ,even you don't know why and find it does works.How it feels? :D

Vaadi Herbals Strawberry lipbalm is such a product. Its price is 25/-INR for 10gm and in Urban Touch.com it is 23/-INR for 10gm..

I saw a review of Vaadi Herbals lipbalm in Wiseshe.com where it has positive review.But generally heard Vaadi herbal products are not of that much quality.  Next day i had been ordering some products from Urban Touch i saw this and in a sudden whim i ordered it. 23 bucks can't hurt much ,right? :p

Company description about this balm : Moisturises dry and chapped lips it forms a protective layer on lips which prevent damage from dry weather. Enriched with strawberry extract.

Key Ingredients: Strawberry extracts, Vitamin-E, Honey Almond Oil.

Shelf Life : 3 years from Mnaufacturing date.

My Experience : 
Type of lips i have : Very dry,tends to chap if don't take care properly.Mildly pigmented.

First look i didn't like it.It looked cheap,well it is cheap only. :p

I don't like tub packaging in lip balm.Now don't ask me why i bought this then :P. yes i do know this comes in tub form before itself. But as i told it is in a sudden whim i bought this.

\

Texture : Slightly heavier compared to Nivea lip balms. But will soon melt in lips.
Pigmentation: They are not claiming this is a tinted lipbalm.But it is slightly tinted.

That black spots are what i tried to label 1 and 2 :D

Left one is Vaadi Herbals Strawberry lipbalm and right one is Niveal Strawberry lipbalm.So you get the idea.

Moisturisation  Power: This is one of the best lipbalm when considering moisturising power. Even Nivea ones have failed me in moisturising context. Only lipbalms which have worked for me is Neutrogena and Lip ice.And now Vaadi also. 

SPF : It have no spf in it. So i am using it as my night lipbalm as well as while staying indoors.

Smell and taste : It have a yummy strawberry smell and no taste :P.So not to be afraid of 'accidental' licking. (Talking about me ; -) )

Another positive factor i find in this lipbalm is reducing  pigmentation.Yes..it does reduce pigmentation.So if you put in night and sleep,morning you can wake up with soft pink lips.

Eventhough shelf life is 3 years and quantity enough for minimum one year, with this tub packaging i don't think i will use it more than 2-3 months. Then also for this price it is worthy i think.

Another thing i didn't like is they haven't given complete ingredient list.I  prefer knowing what all i am applying to my lips.

Summarising positives :

a) Imparts very good moisturisation

b) Reduce pigmentation.

c) Dirt cheap

d) Good quantity.

e) Easily available onlinein in sites like Urban Touch,365 Georgeous etc

Summarising negatives :

a) Only Key ingredients are given.

b) No SPF

c) Tub packaging.

Other variants also available in Pineapple,Orange and Mixed fruit flavour.

This is my HG night lipbalm for now and till i find another one it will remain.But next will try other flavours.
