Makeup Sutra- Beyond Lipstick & Kaajal: Oriflame Product Review

Hey everyone,

Recently I was contacted by Oriflame to review some of their products. November catalog was shared with me and I was to pick up 3 products of my choice for review. I selected following products-

1. Giordani Gold Bronzing Pearls in Natural Radiance

2. The One Power Shine Lipstick in Trendy Berry

3. Very Me Soft 'N' Glam Eye shadow in Sweet Olive

Let's talk about each product in detail

Giordani Gold Bronzing Pearls in Natural Radiance

Product Description- A simple swirl with the brush and the perfect blend of micro pearls will give your skin a seamless, natural glow and flawless luminescence. Enriched with precious mica and silica minerals for a more radiant look.

My Take- I always get fascinated with things that are different. So bronzing pearls caught my eye and was the first product that I ordered for. Though I was a bit disappointed with the packaging, the plastic bowl and the flap lid in dirty yellow color... When the product name says gold, I was expecting something better. There is a sponge to keep the beads in place.

Anyways, coming to the product now- the beads are pink and brownish. I used a blush brush to apply, the color is not very intense but the shine is. Very difficult to get color in the picture even after building up. I would prefer to use it as a highlighter than as a blush.

Rating- 4/5

The One Power Shine Lipstick in Trendy Berry

I went ahead and ordered this lipstick as I am a big fan of shimmer and glitter and love it even more on lips in a subtle way.

Product Description- Medium coverage lipstick in pearly shades with ultra-reflective MetaShine pearls for amplified shine. Infused with caring LipKiss Complex for softer, smoother lips and even more shine.

My Take on the Product- The lipstick is everything it promise. Medium coverage, gives good shine and keep your lips moisturized. The color is a pretty pink-berry. It stays on comfortably for 4 hours without any lip primer or lip liner and beyond that, the color starts fading but the shine stays.

In all, very happy with the product.

Very Me Soft 'N' Glam Eye shadow in Sweet Olive

I have been on a look out for green eye shadow for a while now and love to try them wherever I find one, hence picked this one.

Product Description- The eye shadow duo that’s as versatile as your mood! Apply it dry for a soft, shimmering finish; apply it wet for intense metallic glamour.

My Take on the Product- This eye shadow duo comes in a clear plastic packaging. There is an olive green and a dark moss green color. The colors are not very intense. One swipe doesn't show much. If used wet, it looks better with metallic effect. Overall, nothing great but not bad either.
