Lotus Herbals Gorgeous Natural Diva Kit Review

Hey girlies! I am back again after a brief lull in posting! I got a nice little surprise in my mail some two weeks back in the form of the Gorgeous Natural Diva Kit by Lotus Herbals.

The Kit consists of :

• Lotus Herbals Colour Dew Nail Enamel in Crimson Red 912
• Lotus Herbals Natural Blend Swift Makeup SPF 15  in shade Natural Beige 720
• Lotus Herbals Pure Color Lipstick in shade Red Rose 612

The kit is available on an offer price of Rs 499 (original price of the 3 products Rs 593).

I would do a summarized review of the first two as I have already reviewed the two products before on my blog and a detailed review of the Lotus Herbals Pure Color Lipstick. So get ready for a pretty long pic heavy post! :D

Lotus Herbals Colour Dew Nail Enamel in Crimson Red 912:

Lotus Herbals Colour Dew Nail Enamel is available in 10 beautiful shades. I was happy to receive the Crimson Red 912 in the kit, which is a pretty Valentine red that never looks OTT. It is perfect for weddings or parties. 

PRICE:  Rs.99 

QUANTITY: 8 ml

SWATCH:

The swatch is only one thick coat. It gives a glossy finish to the nails which I quite like but it forms tiny bubbles on 1-2nails which is quite irritating. You can read my full review on Lotus Herbals Colour Dew Nail Enamel here.

Lotus Herbals Natural Blend Swift Makeup SPF 15  in shade Natural Beige 720 Review:

 Lotus Herbals Natural Blend Swift Makeup SPF 15 is a 4-in-1 stick foundation. The previous shade I bought from this range was a mismatch, but the Natural Beige 720 blends with my skintone perfectly.

PRICE:  Rs.249

QUANTITY: 10g

SWATCH:

 

I don't dare to use it as a foundation as it is a bit heavy but as a concealer (ya this shade works for me) and as an eye makeup base. You can read my full review on Lotus Herbals Natural Blend Swift Makeup SPF 15 here.


Lotus Herbals Pure Color Lipstick in shade Red Rose 612:

Since I am a fairly new user of  lipsticks, I haven't tried this oh-so-affordable and pretty shades from Lotus Herbals Pure Color Lipstick range.

PRICE:  Rs.225

QUANTITY: 4.2 g

WHAT IT CLAIMS: ‘Pure Colors’ is a range of 12 exciting moisturizing lip colors in pinks and browns. There are 6 shades of each type. They have natural extracts of Jojoba and Aloe Vera. The unique product qualities are: – Uniform dispersion of pigments – Rich payoff – Smooth application

Active ingredients :
JOJOBA – Jojoba helps promote healing of the skin. – Its antimicrobial properties in addition to the chemical composition that closely resembles skin’s natural sebum, makes it easy to absorb and non-allergic even in the most sensitive individual.

SWATCHES:

MY EXPERIENCE: I had mixed feelings when I got this shade, as I have told you guys many times that red lippies are not my forté. But, Lotus Herbals Pure Color Lipstick in shade Red Rose is not a bright in-your-face red, rather it a subtle red hovering more on a deeper pink side and makes it wearable. But, it is still too dark for my liking. However the shade changes color in different lighting, like, it looks more pink on my lips (in normal daylight) but deep red on my hand (which is nearer to the actual shade) like in the swatches above. Other than that, I found this lipstick to be very moisturizing (I tried it directly on dry lips and it made them considerably soft) and gives a satin finish, much like the Lotus Herbals MoistPetals™ Lipstick. To sum it up,

WHAT I LIKED:

• It is a creamy and moisturizing lipstick that gives a satiny finish and feels quite light.
• Doesn't feather or bleed much or transfer to teeth. (Yes I had that experience :"> )
• One swipe gives enough coverage.
• Doesn't settle into fine lines.
• Quite affordable for the quantity.
• The packaging is sturdy and travel friendly.
• Lasts more than 3 hours and leaves a slight tint on fading off.
• The shade brightens up your face.

WHAT I DIDN’T LIKE:

• Transfers to objects very easily. I accidentally rub it off sometimes.
• The shade is too dark for my liking.

VERDICT: The range seems nice and I have heard a lot about it too from my fellow bloggers. Would love to try some other shades.

RATINGS:  4 out of 5
