Chambor Velvette Touch lip pencil- review, swatches

Hey everyone,

It's time for another review & today it's none other than Chambor Velvette Touch Lip liner Pencil.

A few days ago I had was rearranging my makeup stuff when I suddenly noticed that one of my brown lip pencils was missing, so then of course that was a sign that now I had to immediately buy a new one.

I'm a great fan of Colorbar lip liners but this time I thought of getting one from Chambor.

Chambor Velvette Touch Lip liner

Price

Rs 325

In the mirror of my own experience

Although I love using Colorbar lip liners because they are really smooth, creamy & easy to apply but this time thought of trying one from a different brand. I bought this lip pencil in the shade br 01 which is a light brown shade. The texture is quite smooth & it is well pigmented too. It lasts quite long for about 4-5 hrs. It gives such a beautiful outline to the lips & makes them look as if in perfect shape! It is waterproof too which prevents it from fading soon. The tip is quite strong & the pencil is very handy to carry along anywhere! I really love using this pencil with many of my lipsticks!

Good points

Love the packaging! Has a beautiful patten on top which looks really classy!

Creamy & smooth texture.

Available in many shades, around 8, in reds, browns & pinks.

Long lasting & waterproof.

Decently priced & the product is worth the price.

Easily available, in stores as well as online.

Dermatologically tested.

Bad points

I found none!!

Rating

5/5

Finally

This is a perfect lip liner & I would really recommend my readers to go for this one! I myself am very pleased with this & it has become a must have in my makeup kit!

So girls, which lip liners do you use? Have you tried this one??

Celebrity Makeup #5-Kate Winslet

If you ask about my favorite movie from Hollywood, I’ll take the first name of Titanic. I love to see it again and again even today.

I love everything about this movie but the most favorite are the Hero and the heroine of that movie. Dashing Leonardo De Caprio and beautiful and innocent Kate Winslet. It’s not only me but I think there’s no one in this world who dislikes this actress.

I won’t say that it’s Kate’s best makeup look but it’s really beautiful and even easy to try out.

She has worn red lipstick but in spite of that, her makeup looks subtle and naturally simple. She has done very light eye makeup and this makes her look even more graceful. Anyways, if you want to do this makeup, you can take some tips from here.

Face

At first I’ll moisten my face by a good moisturizer. Take an ice cube in a cotton cloth and dab my face with it, especially, the T-zone area.

Now, I will apply foundation on my face. I’ll choose Mabelline Recover foundation for this look. Apply in dots first & then blend it as always with my fingers or a foundation brush.

If need a concealer, I’ll apply Revlon Colorstay concealer because I love it so much.

Then I’ll apply compact on my face. I’ll try Revlon New complexion pressed powder here.

Cheeks

Now I apply some coral and peach colored blush on the apple of my cheeks. I choose Chambor blush and Revlon Matte Powder Blush together. First the coral one then the peach and blend.

Eyes

I’ll use Meilin shine eyeliner in Black on the upper lash line first and then apply dark brown eyeliner from Revlon and smudged it on the lower lash line.

Next, I’ll lightly dust a peach shade from my Oriflame palette on the eyelids. To make my eyes pop, I’ll add a few coats of L’Oreal Extra Volume Collagen mascara.

Lips

For the lips, I’ll surely go for Mac Russian Red lipstick but before that will shape the lips using Maybelline Hollywood Red lip liner.

So gals what do you think about Kate's look?? Hope this breakdown helps!! Happy Easter Day!!!

Yellowish Golden EOTD

Hi everyone,
Not feeling well at all today :( Had fever in the morning and afternoon so couldn't do much of commenting and other things. But anyways, I decided to do a small post showing you an EOTD which I did a few weeks back. Take a look-

Products used:

Eyes-

Revlon Colorstay foundation
Chambor stick foundation as primer
Revlon Perle eyeshadow- Sparkling gold
Love alpha yellowish golden eyeshadow on top of the Revlon one to give a yellowish touch
Mac liquid eyeliner

So this was something new that I tried out using golden and yellow shades. Hope you liked it:D Have a great weekend!!!

Celebrity Makeup look #3 - Aishwarya Rai

I always love traditional makeup and outfit. They give us an innocent look which one can rarely get from modern or western outfits. You will often see me in traditional looks. This picture of bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai really attracted me and I was compelled to select it for my celebrity look post.

The makeup on her face here is very pretty and making her look innocent & fresh. So now you want to know that if I do this makeup with some limited makeup stuff which I have, what cosmetics I’ll use for this look. So take a look:

Face-

For the face I’ll choose my Chambor liquid foundation to apply all over my face but before that I’ll not forget to apply a good moisturizer under it. I have 4 foundations at present but Chambor’s shade is the exact one like this look. Then concealer..and Revlon Colorstay will be the best for me. A light touch of my Naturactor pressed powder will give the final finish to my face.

Eyes-

For my eyes, I’ll prime my eyes with Chambor stick foundation then apply a peach shade from Dare to Dream palette from Oriflame on the inner corner of my lids. Then I’ll apply some shimmer brown shadow from Chambor trio on the outer corner of lids. On the middle part of my lids, I’ll apply light gold shadow from Oriflame palette &the same shade will be on my brow bone and then I’ll blend them softly.

I’ll define my eyes with Mac gel eyeliner and wear my Revlon eyelashes and give them shape with Maybeline Colossal mascara. I’ll apply black kohl from Revlon in my waterline and comb my brow to give a final touch.

Cheeks-

First of all I’ll use Mac Sur blush on my cheeks and then highlight them with Mac Trace Me Gold blush and blend them well.

Lips-

Here I’ll make an outline of my lips with the lip liner from Colobar then apply two lipsticks’ mixture to get the right shade of Aishwarya’s lips. First a very light touch of the lipstick from Chambor Ultimate Matte long lasting and then a nude shade lipstick from MUFE #24 and I’M DONE!!

That was the way to get this makeup look of Aishwarya Rai…what about you? Have you got any suggestions for this look. I’ll really want to know so please don’t hesitate to give your precious advise for this look!!

Chambor eyeshadow trio- Review & Swatches

Hi friends and lovely readers,

So here I am today with a new post and review which i had missed all these days. Hope it helps!!

Today’s review is all about another of my Chambor eyeshadow trio which I had bought almost one year ago. I love this trio and have used it many times so I wanted to show it to all of you.

Packaging:

I have written about its packaging before when I had reviewed another Copper trio so today I only want to say that this is an ideal packaging where you get everything you want, cute box which is very easy to open with a click, nice mirror, very helpful for makeup of your eyes even during traveling with a soft tipped applicator which is able to apply the shades on my eye lids.

I’m sorry it’s a bit messy from inside :p

Price:

I bought it for Rs. 450 but now the price is 475.

Shades:

Now about the shades, it’s a trio so there are 3 colors in this palette. All are pretty and beautiful. The best part of these shades is neither the shades are very shimmery nor too matte. The texture is very soft and very nice in blending.

Shade one:

This shade is a reddish maroon one and very beautiful. You can apply it on your crease, outer corner and all over lid of your eyes as well. Very pigmented and soft. An amazing combination of shimmer and matte which looks beautiful after blending.

Shade two:

This one is copper gold which is perfect for the crease and outer corner of your eyes. This too does not have much shimmer in it so you can comfortably apply it on your eyes with your matching outfit. I have used this shade with black outfit many times. You can get an elegant look on using it with gold shadow.

Shade three:

This shade is silver and very different from the two and is a highlighter. It is not at all pigmented. You’ll have to apply it again and again to find the good shade.The texture of this shade is not soft. Not good in blending and very chalky. A lot of fall out during applying it but if you bear that fall out and be a bit patient, it looks very lovely on your brow bone as well as all over the lids.i have used it so many times you can see it in the picture.

Staying power:

Good staying power. It can remain for about 5-6 hours comfortably. I have applied it without base some times and it stayed easily about 4-5 hours. With base it stays for a long time.

The reason, I love this trio:

I love the pigmentation of the two shades.

Great staying power.

Love the versatility of shades. I can wear them easily with formal outfit as well as casual too because they are lovely combination of shimmers and matte.

The silver one is not very pigmented but I love to apply it with my pink and white outfit.

They give a very nice coverage and make my lids lovely.

There is no fallout (Excluding the silver one)

Love the soft texture of shades 1 & 2.

All of them define my eyes very nicely.

Price is reasonable.

Here are the swatches ( shades 1and 2 one swipe each and shade 3 3-4 swipes)

Inside with flash-

In sunlight-

The reason, I don’t love it:

The silver one is not as good as the other two. This one has disappointed me. I think in a trio, company should take care of the similarity of their shades. Some times only one shade can keep the customers away from lovely palettes.

Over all I love this trio and I have used it so many times and I’ve been asked many times about these shades so it’s one of my favorite.

Rating:

3.85/5

Will I purchase it again?

Yes, I have already some trios from Chambor. I’ll really love to check out their new range of eye shadows.

Will I recommend it to others?

You should really try this trio.

So friends, tell me have you used this palette ever? What do you think about it? Would love to know about your experience

If you want to check out the review and swatches of another Chambor trio- HERE

Chambor eyeshadow trio( Bronze)

Festival times are over, so normal life is going on. You all ladies would want to look beautiful in your normal life but in a natural look which can give you a descent and charming personality. Makeup which makes you beautiful but doesn’t show, light natural lipstick and light eye shadow which can define your eyes without showing.
This Chambor eyeshadow trio is very nice for those working girls who believe in elegant and descent look.

I love this brand so always like checking out its products in the market. I bought this trio a couple of months ago and after using it only once, I can say that I love it. I’m not crazy about loud makeup so it’s very fine for me.

It comes in a very classy packaging and I like it. Navy blue packaging is very elegant. Inside the carton navy blue box with the Chambor trade mark is very pretty.

–

Now inside the box, the box opens easily with a click and we find three shades in the box with a nice applicator and mirror. Applicator can easily apply all the shades and with its mirror one doesn’t need to look here and there for it.

Price- Rs 450 when I bought it in October but now these trios are of Rs 475

Shade 1

This is a coppery-bronze brown color. I love it for outer corner of my eyes. Its lovely shimmer finish defines my eyes very well. It looks great as an overall lid colour too, when we go for any night occasion. Inspite of some shimmer in it, it has a matte finish in it. After blending, it looks amazing.

Shade 2

This shade is also pretty lovely. It has a white pearly finish and is some what similar to the Maybelline shadow stylist pearl white. I can use it with white and off white dress. It is successful if you want a pearly finish to your eyes but you have to define your eyes by applying some dark shade on your outer corner.

Shade 3

This shade is my most favorite in this palette. Overall it is a neutral shade.I can use it on any of my dress. It gives a very elegant and natural finish to my eyes. After applying it I feel very natural and simple but pretty look. With black dress, it looks very fresh and beautiful.It looks as if I haven’t applied any shadow on my lids but gives my lid a very innocent beauty. Can be used to create a lovely look for day parties and functions.

The reason why I love this trio:

All the three colors are very pretty and give a pearly finish.

Its suits every skin color.

pigmented and very nice in blending.

I can very easily pick them by the applicator or brush.

They all give me natural eye look.

These are very suitable for working girls.

It’s for you if you want a subtle and simple look.
There is not much fallout which relaxes me and I can easily do my makeup.
Applicator is very nice and easy to apply.
Mirror makes my work very easy. Very nice to carry out in my purse.

Now the swatches-

Some dislikes:
I love Chambor trio but often have seen that one shade is little bit chalky. But thanks God in this one there is no such shade.

The quality of every shade should be equal.

It is a trio which is not for festival occasion.

It’s not for you if you love loud makeup.

But overall I love this trio and will always check their latest shadows.
Rating of this trio: 4/5
Hey girls what your views about this trio. Have you tried any other Chambor trio?

A QUICK LOOK JUST IN 10 MIN & I'M READY TO GO OUT!!

Some times it happens that we are in hurry not too well but suddenly we are insisted to go out somewhere by our brothers and sisters, our boy friends or hubby. We can’t refuse them but the question is what to do when we do not have much time to ready ourselves.

I know this moment often comes in your life. What do you do then? Either you go in a simple look or you take much time for yourself and listen to some unpleasant comments for it.

But next time when you face that moment you can pick some tips from here for your preparation. Believe me it will take only 10 minutes and you can get a simple but nice look.

10 minute look-

1-at first wash your face, wipe it and apply some moisturizer if you need. Take any stick foundation or compact which contains foundation in it. You can use Colorbar compact, Lakme magic, Mac compact plus foundation, Loreal roll on or Chambor stick foundation.

I have used here Chambor stick foundation. You need only 1 or ½ min for it.

2- Eyes

You have to spend some time for your eyes but maximum 5 min. Take any shadow palette choose a shade according to your dress. Now apply very lightly because we don’t need dark shade. You can take Maybelline palette, Chambor trio, Mac single color shadow, Lakme quartet, Rimmel trio or any other brand.

Here I have used Maybelline lilac shades and my dress was purple so it was matching.

You have to apply the shadow from inner corner to outer corner of your eyelids. No need to apply any shade on your brow bone but you can use a very light one if you want.

Take your mascara and use only one coat for your lashes. First upper lashes then lower lashes. It will be better if you have transparent mascara.

I have used Loreal Extra volume mascara.

3-Cheeks-

No need to apply blush on your cheeks. Sometimes our own skin glows without the blush.

I haven’t used any blush here.

4-Lips-

Only natural and light color lip gloss is what you need. Apply and press your lips over one another. You can choose natural shades from Revlon, Lakme, Maybelline, Mac, Loreal, Colorbar or any other.

I have used Colorbar transparent lip gloss.

Now brush your hair and leave it loose. Don’t tie, take your purse, wear your shoes and you are completely ready to go out anywhere. Come out from your room with a lovely smile and go with your partner. Don’t forget to look at your partner’s face who would be surprised to see you ready so soon.

Hey, where are you going Madam?

At least you should say thanks to me. Hahaha:))

HAPPY EID- UL- ZUHA TO EVERYONE ALONG WITH A SIMPLE PINKY LOOK!!

Hi Beauties..Happy Eid to all of you.
