Lakme Night Fever - Glide on Eye Color & Aquashine Lip Color Review

Lakme has launched its new collection - Night Fever by Sumeet Varma. The new range adds to the existing line in terms of more intense shades, be it lipsticks or eye make up.

3 new additions have been made to the existing range of Glide On Eye Colors. (Read original review here)


What Lakme says: Deep, intense, molten hues in a silky soft, creamy texture. For eyes that reflect the stars. Edge, smudge, line, shadow, color or blend with the greatest of ease. Wear the colors of the season from subtle green to warm cooper and plush purple.
M.R.P. : Rs. 275/-


Below are the swatches: 

From top to bottom: Plush Purple, Aqua Green & Warm Copper


I like Warm copper the most in this line. Aqua Green is pretty too but doesn't go very well with my green-grey eyes. It will look very nice on brown eyes, I think. 


Plush Purple I don't like at all. It is a milky light bluish - purple, I prefer my purples to be more deeper, intense & richer - like aubergine. Darker actually, and they bring out the green in my eyes beautifully. 


Not this purple, this is just looks like a crayon on the eyes. There is nothing sophisticated about this color and looks very kiddish. 


Other than my review on the color, my opinion of these pencils does not change from my earlier review which you can read here. They have good staying power and are smudge proof as well. I am glad the price increase is minimal from Rs. 250 which was a year ago. 




Aquashine Lip Color Review: You can read my review of these here.

What Lakme says: A revolutionary product that’s everyone’s favourite. It’s a lipstick, a lip balm and lip gloss all in one. Available in brand new colors of the season. From luscious Sangria and Plum to sophisticated Sepia and Firebrick shades. With a unique applicator for enhanced color delivery. Just one sweep and you’re ready to go.

M.R.P. : Rs. 425/-

Swatches below: 

From Top to bottom: Sangria, Sepia & Plum

My opinion of these too does not change much (read my earlier review here). 

All 3 colors are amazing, they have the right glossiness and look fab on the lips. Plum is a very glossy red-purple, Sepia is light brown & good for day time, Sangaria is a warm berry red that I feel is very easy to carry off. Most women would be comfortable with this kind of red. 

But they just don't last for long on the lips. You start to loose the glossy look with 30 minutes, you are left with the tint/color on the lips. Which too makes an exit an hour later. 

The formula seems to have become a little more thicker and stickier now. Even then, these babes barely last more than 2 hours and that is a disappointment. At 425/- a tube, these are quite expensive for something that barely lasts. 

Have you tried this new range from Lakme?

These products was sent to me by the company for consideration, however that has not affected my review in any way.
