Oriflame Pure Color On The Go Lipstick- Swatches and a quick review and my experience

Hellow ladies


Here are the swatches of the oriflame lippies which few beautiful ladies wanted to see, so here I am posting the swatches of the lippies.






From left to right:

Coral Rose, Rich Red, Radiant Red, Black Cherry, Ripe Plum


This range was on an introductory price of Rs 59 in the February catalogue whereas in the March catalogue it is priced at Rs 89. 


The chose to pick colors from every color scheme, that is corals, reds, pinks, browns and purples.




Coral Rose: It is a nice nude, coral-orange shade which is apt for daily wear both official and formal.  One swipe is good, but 2 swipes are great. 

Rich red: It’s a pinkish red shade, one swipe of the lippi give you an average pink red lips which can be worn formally and 2 swipes make you an evening diva. 

Radiant Red: I define this shade as a “Dulhan shade”. :P If you are attending a marriage one swipe is enough and if you are getting married you can probably apply 2-3 swipes.

Black Cherry: It’s a deep brownish red. It’s my Mom’s shade.  It’s apt for your evening dates and dinners.  For the day time you can skip this shade or may be experiment with mixing it with other shades or have a simple touch of the lippie. Women who love dark shades will love this one.  My Mom lives in this shade practically. 

Ripe Plum: This was an inspirational pick after seeing one of the Make up Gurus wear it in her tutorial. I was scared when I saw the lippie, it looked horrendous I mean a thick dark purple with shimmer. :P

But after swatching it on my hand I relaxed and after I applying it on my lips I loved it. 

It’s a must pick if you wanna experiment with purple lips. You will love it. 



My experience with the Oriflame Pure Color On The Go Lipsticks:

The colors available with this range are truly awesome, I mean at such dirty price finding such colors is a total win win for me.  Not just this, the lippies are completely smooth and glides on the lips like magic.  

The staying power of these lippies is not that good, but I got a trick to make them stay back on your lips for long hours.

All you need to do is use a chapstick on your lips first and use a foundation, concealer or a simple compact powder over the moisturized lips.

After this, apply a coat of the lippie on the lips and then blot it out with a tissue. Then apply the second coat and you are good to go.

You can also line your lips with a matching lip liner if you wish too. 



I hope you liked my short and sweet review on these lippies and I hope that my tip helps all those who are complaining with the staying power of these lippies or rather any other lipsticks.

My Maybelline Haul, Thanks Pooja!!!



The New Year kick started for me, with loads and loads of shopping, gifts and surprises. I had major hauls in the past two months, and the season of hauls continues for me.

But today was a special special day and I really wanna Thank Pooja, for making it so special.

I just happened to stumble on Pooja’s blog last week and found out that she was an oriflame consultant. Well, I do not really buy oriflame products but yes, once a while sitting in the salon I flip through their catalogue and if I find something interesting I order it.

I was actually looking for a nice blush since I had almost eaten up my Maybelline dream mousse last month. :P I love it!!!! I am not that fond of powder blushes but yes I do use them in Majboori, when I don’t have my cream ones or the Maybelline dream blush. The oriflame consultant here is quite nosey, I don’t like her, hmph!!!! She didn’t have the Visions blush stick, but fortunately Pooja did.. 

So I ordered my blush stick from Pooja, and also asked her if she could get me my Maybelline stuff, since I had to wait for my exams to get over till I get back to Pune to buy it.  And being a total sweetheart, Pooja happily agreed. Then what… I asked her to send me, Maybelline dream Mousse blushes in peach satin and soft plum. Color sensational Lipsticks in Warm me Up and Make me Pink. Maybelline color sensational lip gloss in Raspberry Sorbet along with the Visions stick blush. I also got a lipstick case free freee free…. 



I was elated when I got my parcel today; it took just 2 days to reach me.  Just couldn’t wait to open it up. Pooja took the special efforts of packing it with a bubble wrap, she also included the next months Oriflame Catalogue in it, I think I am ordering the whole catalogue.. :P :P And not to forget a lovely note with it. 

I am so so happy today, and wanna thank Pooja for her lovely gesture.  I am touched and how!!!

Totally loving all the stuff she sent me…… A big big bear hug to Pooja and also a big big Thank You!!!

I would be reviewing all the products in the haul one by one for you all. :)

 Thank you…. 
