I didn’t feel like writing ‘priced at’. After all, it’s not a regular brand!
When Christian Louboutin lipsticks got launched, I remember ogling at them for hours and realizing how they were the perfect fusion of fashion and beauty. Their price tags sprouted a whirlwind of emotions within me. I wondered if I was ready to make the move, swipe the card and sacrifice on junk food for at least 4 months. I imagined how it would feel unpacking the lipstick, opening the box, seeing it in real and holding the prized possession in my hands. To be honest, I had mixed feelings. I wasn’t sure of giving a green flag to my friend for buying it on my behalf. I didn’t have any answer.
As quoted by ‘Neil deGrasse Tyson’, “It’s ok not to know all the answers.” So, I left it at that.
One thing I know for sure before making an investment in this lipstick is that I want to see it in real. If I get lucky some day, I’ll surely take my chance.
Are you thinking what lipstick is this? It’s ‘Space moisturized matte lip color balm’.
I found it while casually browsing on Flipkart. I saw it and I was amazed! It’s not the first time I saw a dupe of a beauty product on the website look-wise but this time, I was stunned. I saw the price “Rs.450” which felt a little high considering it’s a look-alike. But I went ahead and bought it.
The brand has done aย decent job for the packaging part. And, you know what? The shade name is called ‘Lady danger’. When I read the name, I nearly fell off my chair. Hope you enjoy the pics ^_^
As far as the performance is concerned, I haven’t tested it. Although I can tell you the bullet smells strongly of mogra. If you’re a sucker for Mogra-jasmine based scents, you’ll find yourself opening the lipstick just to smell it few times a day. Ahem ahem!
I have include a picture of the shade below. While swiping it, the texture felt moderately soft. I’m pretty sure that I can use this lipstick as a blush too.
Will you buy the iconic Christian Louboutin lipstick if you get the chance to? Or will you prefer spending that much amount on some other stuff?

There used to be a time I would oggle at it and would have spent too, but now no. I would rather buy other stuff in that money. By the way this one is sitting in my flipkart cart ^_^ Loving the shade of this ๐

Heena says

Shikha says
This is on my wish list since it was launched. It’s insane to buy a lipstick for 6k but there are somethings in life that you want and you can wait to save for that. So I have saved a little for this and I am definitely going to own one someday ๐
But now that I have found a dupe of packaging I don’t mind getting it first until I buy original
Heena says
Mine too :-s
Exactly ^_^
Hope to see you become the proud owner of this iconic lippie one day B-)
Ehihi, please go ahead ๐
