LOTD: Winged Eye Liner with a play of Purple and Cranberry

You all know how much I have been obsessing over winged liners lately don't you? And before you roll your eyes and say to yourself "oh no not another winged liner look", let me promise you all that nope you wouldn't be bored I promise and though I plan on doing a couple of more of these looks, I can assure you that you all would be far from bored ;)

This time I have used Purple and Cranberry eye shadows and created a not-a-very-blended-out look. Rather I have let both the eye shadow colors be very individualistic today and not be blended into a third shade. So in short I haven't allowed by shadows to marry each other and produce a third one of their kind ;) You get what I am saying? LOL. Yup I guess you could attribute this loss of my realistic thinking to #MondayBlues. Sighhhhh...





You know now that I am seeing the pics on the blog, I cannot help but feel that this makeup is making me look a bit retro, a bit catty and also giving me a sci-fi look. You think it's my #MondayBlues kicking in again? :P Haha

REVIEW & LOTD: Revlon Luxurious Color Diamond Lust Eye Shadow in Plum Galaxy (Valentine Special)

With Valentine's Day around the corner and we already into Valentine's week, I can't help but like all pinks and purples and you will suddenly find a gush of LOTDs and Hauls with a lot of these shades. Don't be alarmed! It'll pass soon :)

Anyways, as you all know we had a Pune Blogger's Meet the other day and I picked up this newly launched sparkly mono eye shadows from Revlon called Revlon Luxurious Color Diamond Lust Eye Shadow in Plum Galaxy which is a gorgeous sparkly purple shade that is perfect for a special night out with your guy! Heck! It's actually perfect for night-outs with anyone ;)

The shade is a sheer blackish-purple with a lot of Purple chunky glitter in it. Chunky glitter? Yup you got it! Gorgeous but a lot of fall-out and difficult to blend :( Come on let's go through the pros and cons one by one and lastly see the beauty of the shadow and then make your own conclusions ;)

LOTD- Valentine Special!




Oooohhss And Aaaahhhss!!!
1. I don't even need to tell you how gorgeous the shadow is! It's just out of this world beautiful.
2. The final effect of the shadow on the eyes is simply mesmerizing.
3. They stay on for very long and no the glitter doesn't shed or fade away!
4. They DO NOT crease on me, which is a big thing cause almost every glitter/shimmer eye shadow does!
5. They feel very light no doubt.
6. It comes with a sponge tip applicator which is quite sturdy and handy for quick touch-ups :)



Ouches!!
1. Huge fallout :( I had to redo my under eye makeup :(
2. Because of the chunky glitter, blending and application too wasn't that easy.
3. One of the glitter particles fell into my my and well it irritated my eye so much that I had to wash-it off and redo the whole thing :(


Price
It costs INR 550/-


Repurchase?
I don't think I'll be finishing it soon but if they ever come out with a sparkly Green then you can count on me to purchase it! :)


Would I Recommend?
Yup! I would! Even with the fallout, I really find it to be very gorgeous and we don't really have a lot of choice of "sparkly" eye shadows in India now do we? :P So these are just perfect! And for the amount of shadow that you get I guess Rs.550/- is good enough :)


Overall Rating
8/10


Isn't it just perfect for your Valentine's Day outing? :)
