Hello everyone !!
Thank you IMBB for giving me this opportunity to share my experiences. This is my first post on IMBB. Today, I am going to review Lakme Absolute Red Flames Sculpt Studio Hi-definition Matte Lipstick. A few days back, I had visited Lakme salon and my love for red lipsticks made me get this one!

My Experience with Lakme Absolute Red Flames Sculpt Studio Hi-Definition Matte Lipstick:
Red Flames is a warm red shade. It is the best red I have ever used. One needs to apply atleast a light base makeup with this shade as it does not look as good on bare face. This shade of red will suit all skin tones as it has no undertones. It is a bright red shade with no shimmer and is perfect for summers. The lipstick is so highly pigmented that you are done with just one stroke. It has amazingly smooth texture and true matte finish.
It glides on the lips easily without any tugging or pulling, but the lips should be properly exfoliated and moisturized before its application. It feels so light on the lips even after multiple swipes. It has lovely mild fragrance which I totally love. It does not bleed at all. Its staying power is 4-5 hours between meals. It dries out after 4-5 hours and settles into fines lines which I do not like. It is not waterproof and transfers to cutlery.
The lipstick is shaped differently which makes it little bit difficult to apply. I personally like the classic bullet shaped lipstick as it is easier to apply. Overall, I love the product. So, if you are a red matte lipstick lover like me, you should definitely try this!
