After the lip-crayon trend in India, we are now getting hit with liquid lip colors... with each brand slowly coming up with their own version. As for me, I am eagerly waiting to experience the variety that will be offered to us!
Last year, Chambor launched their Extreme Matte Long Wear Lip Colour, a wonderful range of slim lip crayons. This year, the brand has come up with the Extreme Wear Transfer Proof Liquid Lipstick range with a collection of 18 beautiful shades for a variety of Indian skin tones. I must say that 18 shades in a liquid lipstick is quite an impressive number for an Indian brand. Let us get on with the review...
I posted about this Chambor Extreme Matte lip crayon in my haul post a while ago, and I am finally here with its review. Let me first talk a bit about the behind-the-scenes action - While shooting the pictures for this product, I just could not find an appropriate background to bring out its true color. That's when Mixie walked in (quite as usual), and I got my model cum background right in front of me, and I clicked away to glory! If you are following me on Instagram, you must be aware that Mixie just blessed us with some adorable kittens! She was also present when I was editing her clicks! Most of the times when I am at my desk busy writing my posts, she just walks in and plonks herself in between me and my laptop, and then I have to sometimes lift her ear, sometimes her tiny paw in order to write a proper sentence! That's how things roll at the Indian Beauty Cafe!!! Okay, now onto the review...
Haul posts have always been a sort of jinx for me. Whenever I put them up on the blog, I normally tend to forget to review them. Naturally, I had my doubts but then I published it anyway.
"That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet", said Juliet to Romeo in Shakespeare's famous play.
Chambor seems to have taken this line seriously and has decided to name any random color made by their company as "rose". Agreed that the Chambor logo is a rose engraving and some shades do look like roses; but this does not mean that they name all their shades "rose" just like Hrithik's director-dad Rajesh Roshan names all his films with a 'K'. They have named their Carnival Collection shades also with "rose".
For once, I now feel that companies numbering their products (and not naming them) is a good thing. Wrong names can so mislead an online shopper who has not done her homework.... Be safe and do your homework, by reading this review...
