Walk into The Coral Sunset with The Body Shop!

The Body Shop Colour Glide Lipstick # 63 (Coral Sunset)

I bought this when I was hunting for my perfect coral lipstick (its been a while since I had this)..... and
trust me I have tried quite a few - As a result I have so many coral lippies now that it deserves a  special post!(I know... I have loads of pending posts... will do it soon :P)
The coral craze hasn't gotten over yet......  probably coz it suits me a lot.... So here is what I end up wearing many times recently. Sadly I don't see it anymore-I think its been discontinued now

 Price- Rs. 600/-

 Quantity- 4g

 What does the company Say:
Moisturizing lip colour that feels velvety smooth. With light-diffusers for younger-looking lips. Check out the 19 lip-tastic shades in our stores now!


 Swatches:

I love the metallic sleek case


# 63 - Coral Sunset (I think!)

The Body Shop Nature's Minerals Foundation SPF25 - Available in 6 shades

Price- Rs.1195/-

Quantity- 5g

What does the company Say:

Applies evenly and blends easily for a radiant, natural-looking complexion. Non pore-clogging. Colour builds easily to provide an adjustable light to medium coverage. Effectively reduces the appearance of redness, imperfections, blemishes and visible pores. Preservative-free, fragrance-free. Dermatologically tested, non-comedogenic.

Yay's
  • Has minerals- which are supposed to be good for your skin
  • Has SPF 25
  • Preservative-free, fragrance-free. Dermatologically tested, non-comedogenic.

Nay's
  • Costly at Rs.1145/- for 5g of product
  • Provides Negligible coverage even for minor skin imperfections - a loose powder will work better than this!
  • No matter how much u layer on - no foundation like effect!


The Last Word:

I had tried this wanting something containing minerals to avoid skin breakouts etc. BUT it does nothing for me in terms of what a foundation is supposed to do - no evening out of skintone - no coverage - not even some mattifying action!! I use the foundation brush from body shop to apply this - but unless you apply some heavy-duty concealer before- applying this will not give u any coverage! When a company says 'natural-looking' - it should not mean what you naturally look like! Feels like a rip-off with that price tag! No Thanks next time!
