Holas People! Yesterday night, I had thought of
unplugging myself from my laptop atleast for five days. I was so drained and
tired. And, today morning, I was assembling the various products and sheets for
photographing them! Lol! I have weird energy swings!
I had purchased this lipstick long back ago, before
Inglot introduced the freedom system eyeshadows and lipsticks in only square
shape. Thanks to them, three of my empty round palettes are going to go waste
once I’m over with my lipsticks which are going to happen soon. And, of many others too! I wish they at
least had a recycle option, if not refund option for the round palettes. Anyhoo,
let’s see how this lipstick is!
Packaging:
Inglot
freedom system lipsticks come in a plastic casing which can be closed and
opened easily and if you don’t have round palettes, you can store them in that
plastic casing. I’m going to buy the new square refill lipstick soon and see,
if there has been any change in unfriendly packaging with the new increase in
their prices.
Texture:
The
lipstick has a very smooth texture and glides on easily onto the lips. I wouldn’t
call it moisturizing but it’s not even drying though in winters I always like
to use a lip balm 5 minutes before applying any lipgloss/lipstick.
Shade
and Pigmentation: Inglot freedom system lipstick “62” is a
subtle peachy brown warm shade. The shade will work nicely for fair-medium
skintones as an everyday shade. The pigmentation is very nice. These go opaque
in a single swipe only.
Staying
Power: It stays on for more than 3 hours on me but after
that, it starts to deposit at the edges of the lips which is bothersome for me.
Make-up
with it: There are no rules but since this a subtle shade, you
can sport light eye makeup or even heavy eye makeup with this. You can choose
blush in a co-ordinating shade like peach or simply swipe a highlighter. I love
to pair it with a bright eyeliner like “Maxfactor Cobalt Blue eyeliner” and a
subtle peachy blush like “Sleek Makeup Blush in Suede”

Pros:
Inglot brand has its stores and is
available online as well.
-
The shade number is labelled nicely at
the back of the lipstick.
-
The texture is smooth and light.
-
The pigmentation is very good quality.
-
It stays on for around 3 hours which is
nice for a lighter shade lipstick.
-
The shade is an everyday wear shade which
would be versatile for a lot of skin tones.
-
Even when worn on its own, it doesn’t
wash out the face.
Cons:
-
The price hike.
-
The unfriendly packaging. Lip brush is a
must if you don’t apply lipsticks with your fingers (which I do mostly)
-
The less quantity.
-
Also, it tends to gather at the edges of
the lips after some hours.
Final Verdict: Inglot
Freedom system lipstick “62” is a subtle warm shade for everyday wear. It has
got a smooth texture and wears fairly well. Minus the unfriendly packaging and
little quantity, I like these freedom system lipsticks quite a lot .
Price:
Rs.350
Quantity:
1.2gm
VCB Rating: 4/5
VCB’s Tip : To avoid getting lipstick on your
teeth and making others feel like you actually eat lipsticks, put your index
finger in your mouth with closed lips and pull it out. The finger will pull out
the lipstick on the inside of the lips. I always do this, be it a lipgloss or a
lipstick.

*Yes! It's Expired* :|
