Review: Nivea Glamorous Gloss (natural)


Hi all!!
Ok so ladies today my review is all about Nivea glamorous lip gloss.. Lip glosses are an essential part for a college girl like me.. Not only girls but women also love lip glosses on their lipsticks to make them look shiny and flattery.. Right ladies?? ;)   So, come on read my review and get to know about the lip gloss from Nivea..

Price: Rs.139 for 8.5ml
 
Nivea Glamorous gloss


 What the company claims??

The innovative formula of Nivea Glamorous Gloss, with ultra shine pigments and exotic scents, brings dazzling shine to your lips and provide long lasting moisturization and care..

Ingredients:
Not mentioned anywhere… :O

Packaging: A sleek pink colored tube with transparent screw cap and slant applicator..

Slant tip applicator

My experience with Nivea Glamorous Gloss:
So here we go… I spotted this lip gloss in a small cosmetic shop and I quickly purchased it seeing its sleek tube packaging and pinky colored tube..  When I tried it, for the first time I found out that I hate it coz of its smell.. But then when I tried for 2nd and 3rd time, the smell changed.. I think it was the smell of plastic for the first time but then it settled when I opened it couple of times.. It has a scenty smell which does not stay for long when applied on lips.. It doesn’t have any taste and it contains shimmer particles also to make your lips shine… It keeps lips moisturizing for few hours but not for long, maybe 1-2 hour.. So you have to apply it again and again.. But yes, its easy to carry that sleek tube in handbag.. :D Maybe will suit to college girls who won’t mind reapplying again and again… :P


Swatch.. (hope you can see glitter)

Dislikes :(
·       * Some may find its smell weird (sensitive nose people, like me)
·       * Ingredient list not mentioned
·       * Reapplication needed after 1-2  hours

Will I recommend/ purchase it again??
Well I won’t purchase it again because I told you na I have sensitive nose and I didn’t like its smell.. Otherwise it is suitable for college goers and also for ladies who want their lip gloss to settle after few hours.. 

Scoreboard: 7/10 :)

My journey with flipkart.com
This was my first site through which I started the journey of online shopping.. :P I came to know about it through advertisement where small and cute children enact about their fast delivery and all.. Since I was new to online shopping world, I was not sure whether they will deliver the same product on time or not… :D (my curiosity :O) And today it’s been 4-5 times I have shopped from them.. :D Yes, they are responsible for making me an online shopper… Coming back to their service and products.. The range of products available is really huge.. It is super easy to navigate the site and the delivery is too fast.. I received my orders in a day or two… Believe me, if you want a product urgently, buy it from flipkart..

Review: Nourish Minty Fresh Lip Balm


Hi sweeties.. Today my review is all about a lip balm from nourish in mint flavour.. I know its not that famous and you will definitely not find the review of this product in most of the blogs.. I came across this lip balm from flipkart.. And the cute and colourful packaging attracted me to buy one.. I bought the minty flavour because it was cheap among the rest.. :P Read on to know if it really works…

Nourish minty lip balm

Cute packaging :)


Price: Rs.246 for 20g (I got it on discount for Rs.176)
 You can buy this product from flipkart.com (till stock last)
 
Packaging: A cute tub with silver lid... :D
 
Huge tub...
My experience with Nourish Minty Lip Balm:
When this lip balm arrived I was in love with its packaging as it came in the hut shaped box and when I opened it, it was sealed with a plastic cover.. It is a huge tub which will last for months.. It has totally buttery texture and the smell is minty… (tooo minty) :D… When applied on lips, it gives a cooling effect (maybe because of its flavour) and it really melts on the lips.. You have to be very careful while applying otherwise you will end up applying too much.. It comes clear on lips and gives a glossy effect.. Staying power is good but if you are planning to apply it under your lipstick then beware, your lipstick will not stay for long… :P It moisturises the lips well (I recommend to apply it at night and wake up with soft lips in morning).. It have melted like a butter in summers now..:P The smell is too strong and I wish that I had opted for bubblegum flavour as mint is not my all time favourite.. It has no taste and also its not too heavy on lips.. J And yes it comes in different flavours like chocolate, lemon, mint, bubblegum, strawberry…

Dislike :(
·       * Smell is too strong
·       * Applying under lipstick will not make it last longer
·       * Sometimes you may end up in applying too much
·        * Comes in tub (hygiene problem for some)

Will I recommend/purchase it again?
Well, I get bored with same products very soon and this one is 20g.. But if you are a lip balm person then you should give this one a try.. 

Scoreboard: 7/10 :)
