So this is a quick review on a lip color that is my classic fav and was found again in a classic brand Lakme, in their new range of lip colors, I love brick lip colors since my early influences of makeup were from ladies who wore brick lipstick and since them there is no looking back. I remember lakme had a shade misty matte and was my all time favorite in a green pack, but now they dont have it. This of course is one step ahead a new matte one in the same pretty brick shade, only a bit brighter.

I am in love with this new range, they have a ton of shades, something for everyone, and needless to say I picked many of my favs, but this one is really a classic brick. The shade is a bright brick, not very red but more of an orangey brick and I love it.

You can many golden specks in it but they are hardly visible, I love how matte it goes and barely any shimmer shows up. The texture is soft and not very creamy but since it is matte, it is not the way some lippies melt, I like it like this and one swipe is really pigmented and you dont really need to build it up for the brick to show. It is really nice indeed for matte lovers and for brick lipstick lovers.

The shade works well for warm Indian skin tones, and will not be good for very young girls or for blue based skin tones, i think yellow skin tones will be able to carry it well and it really brightens face up for most complexions.

Since it is matte, you can wear it for three hours easily and it gets patchy after meals, so you need to check it for sure, and if you use more than one swipe, then you surely need to keep the cakey-ness in control.

One prob you might find it that it is a little dry, if you build it up it gets cakey and one swipe is enough,overall I loved this lipstick for the shade and matte finish it is, it was love at first sight for me and it is a dupe for Colorbar terra we once discussed on IFJ Check out the new range.
