Once some one told me that peach and orange shades suit me well. I don't know why but peach has always been one of my favorite color. I have many orange and peach lipsticks, in fact peach is the color which always pulled my eyes among different colors and inspite of having many peach shade lipsticks I begin to think of buying one more...haha..I think it's a natural thought and many girls and ladies are like me so I'm not worried about this. I'm going to review Lotus Herbal Pure Color Lipstick- Carnation which is my favorite color lipstick. I have many lipsticks which are quite similar this shade but still you will tell me to choose my favorite one, my eyes will stop on this color again.

Packaging
The packaging is beautiful. The lipstick comes in a beige and golden cover which is a very beautiful combination. You can see the shade name at the bottom of the packaging. It's quite light weight and good to carry out. The only small inconvenience that would be possible is that when you have many shades of Pure lipstick and you can see the shade only after opening them.

Carnation 640
This is a peachy orange with a slight hint of pink and it's very pretty shade which is for all skin tones and will look beautiful on any occasion.
Texture & pigmentation
The texture is smooth silky and quite moisturising. It glides on lips very smoothly. It's between the matte and glossy and just perfect for the lips in every season. I love its pigmentation too beacuse only one swipe can give the right color. I don't like deep color on my lips so one or two swipes are completely perfect. It doesn't settle on fine lines and give a soft look of lips. No need to apply a lip balm but in case you have super dry lips, apply a light coat of lip balm before using it.
Lasting Power
It lasts about 4 to 5 hour easily on my lips. After 4/5 hours the lipstick color fades a bit but evenly not in patches so it looks pretty after fading too. So I love the lasting power.
In the mirror of my own experience
It's my first experience with the Pure Color range so I wasn't aware about the quality. But after using it I'm really impressed about the quality and everything. What else can one expect from a lipstick? Lotus Herbals has maintained its high quality at a very low cost. They have very big shade collection from which one can get a huge option of color. When I first applied this lipstick and went to a get together everyone had noticed my makeup especially the lipstick. The texture and pigmentation brings it very close to
Maybelline colorsensational range lipsticks which is also a very high quality lipstick.
Good points
The packaging is very pretty.
Love the soft and smooth texture which lies in between matte and glossy.
Has a mild pleasant fragrance.
It makes my lips soft after applying
great pigmentation, gives a very pretty coverage.
Lasts comfortably for 4 to 5 hours on my lips.
Contains Jojoba oil and aloe vera as ingredients.
They have a shade for everyone because the shade collection is wide.
Does not smudge or bleed or settle into fine lines.
Gives even color on lips as it fades.
Great quantity and quality at Rs 225!
100% vegetarian.
Bad points
You have to read the shade label at the bottom of packaging if you have more than one lipstick because you can't identify the shade without it.
If you have super dry lip, you'll have to apply a lip balm underneath.
Full ingredients are not mentioned on the website.
Finally....
I' m really very impressed with this lipstick and I have decided to buy some more light colors because they have a nice collection of shades. The quality of the lipstick makes it special. you find a high quality lipstick only in 225. I think it's far better than Lakme lipsticks. The only thing which Lotus Herbal has to do is to make their products everywhere & in every city at many counters. It will a great option for college girls and the ladies who love makeup but high prices of cosmetics make them stay away from it.
