Lakme Absolute Shine Line “Pink” Review, Swatches + How I Use It

Heena

You know how there are some times when some guests arrive at your home with their daughter same age as yours! I find it a little difficult to strike smooth conversation with a stranger but that time I didn’t really had to think much! All thanks to this liner! I was wearing this on my eyes and she told me how pretty it looked! And, I started my saga of makeup. I purchased this liner some 2 months back and here’s what I have to say about it (leaving the fact that I had gone mad getting the right swatches!):

–            The shade is a gorgeous metallic duochrome pink. Although I feel it’s a white base with pale pink flecks. It appears white under some light and pink under some light.
–            It comes in a slim plastic bottle and the brush has thin bristles, tightly packed.
–            The texture is thin and water based.
–            The pigmentation is disappointing. Only after three coats, it gives somewhat opaque coverage. This is the reason with the little quantity given; I’m at the bottom of the bottle.
–            Spare 7-10 minutes when using it, since it takes this much amount to dry.
–            The staying power is good although! It stays on for more than 7-8 hours with hardly any fading. It’s water resistant too. 

How I Use It:
Using Vega lip liner brush, I first apply a thin line with the pink eyeshadow from “Sleek Palette”. After that, I apply two coats of the pink liner. I either draw a thin black liner upon it or wing it slightly. I don’t like layering it upon black eyeliner because I don’t like the shade then. But I have still swatched it that way for reference.
