Boots Natural Collection Moisture Shine Lipstick-Cranberry
Remember my haul from England? I have reviewed some stuff I got from Super drug and Boots but yesterday I was discarding a lot of stuff when I found this. Now this is quite new and one of the 4 lippies I got from Boots Natural collection.I believe I got this one at nothing more than 2 pounds each, making it just 160 INR each and hence I got 4 of them to try out.
The colors were all so-not-Indian obviously, made for lighter, pale, and translucent skin, not much pigmented or deep in coloration, but kind of “just there” lip colors But there were nice, nude pinks and magenta and mainly nice light pinks of which I did pick up two (cranberry & raspberry). I am reviewing a nice doll pink again from the same with some mild shimmer to it.
The shape of the bullet is quite unique I would say, but I like flat-topped bullets and I find them easiest to apply color with. Using this kind of tip can be a pain and I feel I might break the bullet when applied with a lot of pressure.
The packaging of the lipstick is very simple , I think it is more like the Elle 18 of Boots or something because these are easy on the pocket and the colors are very young/college/office goers variety.
The concealer from the brand is also similarly packaged. The lipstick itself is atypical pink, it has some silver shimmer but the base is creamy. The lipstick is meant for pinker skin tones and could look bad on yellow skin/warm skin tones. I like the pink to it and hence picked it up for trying.

Without flash
The texture is towards hard and sturdy kinds, it is better than Fig leaf honestly, it is smooth enough and it renders a lot of color when applied two swipes. The lipstick is not drying and it feels like it has set on the lips since it feels a little on thick side. Overall, it is could for normal lips, not so great for dry lips.The finish is a little frosty but the frost goes away soon and it looks mainly on the creamy side.
Last word:
Nothing fantastic, thought at GBP 2, it is not so bad for youngsters.It is a good pink with a decent staying power for pinker skin tones.
