Lakme Absolute Flaming Orange Gloss Addict Will Remind you of Summers

Lakme Absolute Flaming Orange Gloss Addict Review

Hi lovely ladies!!!

Winters are here and along with it comes dry and chapped lips. If you like wearing matte lipsticks, then this season does not permit you to, because if you apply matte lipstick on your dry lips, it might just end up looking cracked and ugly, showing the winter scars. Being the lipstick lover that I am, I can’t step out without smearing on some lip colour on my lips. So, I’m on the lookout for creamy, moisturizing lipsticks that will be comforting on the lips during the winters. So, finally I got a Lakme gloss addict lipstick after months of resistance. I couldn’t help, but I was lured towards the orange shades from this range and picked up the most pigmented orange lip colour amongst them.  So today, I will be reviewing an orange lip color from Lakme Gloss Addict range in the shade “Flaming Orange.”

My Experience with Lakme Absolute Flaming Orange Gloss Addict:

Let me start with the lovely packaging, this lipstick looks so attractive, it comes in a greyish metallic tube with a transparent cap.

I like it that you can see the lipstick shade through the cap, which makes it easy to spot the lip color you want to pick out from your makeup stash, in case you have more than one lipstick from the range. The cap snaps on snugly, making it travel friendly. The shade name and expiry date is mentioned on the bottom sticker on the lipstick which is a plus point as you need not keep the outer box to check the expiry date of the product.

Coming to the color – it’s a gorgeous orange colour which leans a little towards coral. When I swatched this lipstick at the store, I didn’t notice the shimmer particles in it. I was just happy with the colour and picked it up. Only after coming home, did I realize that the lip color has subtle shimmer particles in it, which was quite a disappointment because I prefer my lipsticks without any trace of shimmer or sheen. I really don’t understand what is with Lakme and shimmer, they ruin the best colours by adding shimmer to it.

This lipstick is super creamy and smooth on application, glides easily on the lips like butter. It is quite moisturizing, and gives a nice glossy finish to the lips which imparts a healthy look to the lips.  This shade’s pigmentation is far better that the other shades from the “Gloss Addict” range, and that is what made me pick up this lip color.

It gives medium coverage in a single swipe that can cover up pigmented lips, and you can definitely build up the intensity with a few more swipes. The sad part about this lipstick is that it doesn’t last long. It hardly lasts for 2.5 to 3 hours. It doesn’t survive meals. It doesn’t stain the lips but leaves behind the annoying shimmer particles that settle into the fine lines of the lips.

Pros of Lakme Absolute Flaming Orange Gloss Addict:

  • Attractive, sturdy packaging.
  • Expiry date mentioned on the bottom sticker of the lipstick.
  • Nice orange lip color leaning towards orange.
  • Smooth, creamy texture.
  • Moisturizes the lips.
  • Gives glossy finish to the lips.
  • Good pigmentation.
  • Doesn’t stain the lips.

Cons of Lakme Absolute Flaming Orange Gloss Addict:

  • Slightly on the expensive side.
  • Has shimmer particles.
  • Doesn’t last long.
  • Lip color vanishes but leaves shimmer particles behind.

IMBB Rating:

3.5/5

Overall, I like this lipstick, for it’s a pretty orange color and moisturizing formula that feels amazing on the lips. If you have dry lips or looking for hydrating lipsticks for winters, then you should try this lipstick. If you aren’t someone who is bothered about the shimmer particles in it, then I’m sure you will like this lipstick!!!
