Coloressence Mesmerising Lip Color – 67 Brick Red
Hello Lovelies!
Having read Saloni’s review of Coloressence Lipstick in the shade Moods in Maroon and seen the awesome lip swatches made me want to get the shade. So, I ordered it and along with it ordered a couple of more that I had not tried earlier. I ended up buying five different shades and out of those I liked this shade the best. I am not really a red lipstick person but as they say every girl ought to own a red lippie. And what better to start with than something that sells at a hundred and something bucks. So, without any further ado, here’s my take on Coloressence Mesmerising Lip Color in the shade Brick Red.
Price:
Rs 150 for 4g.
Product Claims:
A unique combination of coriander and basil extract. This lip color protects, moisturizes and is hypoallergenic. Voluminise the lips.
Ingredients:
Almond Oil, Vitamin E, Coriander and Basil extracts. No other ingredients mentioned.
My Experience with Coloressence Mesmerising Lip Color in the Shade Brick Red:
The lipstick comes in the usual black and silver case of Coloressence lipsticks. I think it looks nice, given for the pittance it comes for. The case is pretty sturdy and the cap closes on the case with a click. It is pretty travel-friendly and will not open in the bag. The smell is again the generic smell of low end lipsticks. I wish they’d make it smell better. In the bullet, the colour of the lipstick appears to be a rich blood red, which I really loved. However, I wasn’t sure if the colour would appear the same on my lips as in the bullet. And much to my surprising relief, it actually did. I was half expecting it to turn into an orange or something. The lipstick is extremely pigmented. The first time you’ll need to apply a couple of swipes for the colour to show, but next time onwards a single swipe will give you wonderful red pouts. The lipstick is though not moisturizing, but isn’t as dry as I was expecting. You’ll definitely need to wear a lip balm below, though. This lipstick is not all creamy, which, perhaps, is what you expect of Coloressence lipsticks. The staying power is pretty decent. It stayed on for four hours and then I lost patience with it and wiped it off. The best thing about this lipstick is its beautiful, glorious red hue that would look as good on a fair woman as on a wheatish and darker complexioned woman. I love this shade and I recommend it to everyone.
Pros of Coloressence Mesmerising Lip Color in the Shade Brick Red:
• A lovely blood red colour which will suit women of all complexions.

• Bag friendly case, the cap will not open of its own volition.
• Hypoallergenic.
• 100% vegetarian. No animal ingredients.

Cons of Coloressence Mesmerising Lip Color in the Shade Brick Red:
• Transfers easily.
• Not at all creamy.

Very Red… Nice lip swatches 🙂 but it seems to be creamy on application *shock*
Thank you Neha. 🙂 Actually its the effect of the lip balm that is giving a creamy effect on application. The lipstick is pretty dry, not to mention hard *headbang*

I know Neha! I wish they’d make it a little creamy *haan ji*
Lovely review… I am so into red these days.
Thank you Monika! Do try this shade if you wish.
Sushmita….first of all, great pics. Second, i have just ordered passionate pink, around 10 minutes before your review, do you have that shade, how is it?
Thank you Jomol, thanks a lot! 😀 I don’t own passionate pink, the others I ordered are all nudes and browns. But I do hope it turns out to be lovely colour. 🙂
STUNNING lip swatches sushmita. You made the color look outstanding. :))
I’m glad you liked them Rati. 😀 Thanks to IMBB, my photography skills are improving. *haan ji*
