Lakme Enrich lipstick 651 review and swatches


Lakme Enrich satins in 651- Barely there
Hello Everyone,
We all have been or have used Lakme Enrich satin lipsticks at least once I suppose or we have seen it in our mom's vanity. I have been using this lipstick a lot lately and i think its my second or third pack.
It is Lakme Enrich satins in 651 Barely There a very natural looking color that give give rosy lips without looking like as if you are not wearing any lipstick.

Price- 225 INR or less on some online shopping sites.
Quantity- 4.3 gms

Packaging- Packaging is in a deep brownish maroon case with golden undertones, which is the same for so long and I guess they are not even considering to change it. However, it is sturdy.



My experience- I have been in love with the neutral shades since I started wearing lipsticks or glosses. This shade in particular is more like of an orangish pink sheer color that can be deepened by swiping more which of course will make your lips “my lips but better”  and this was the main reason for which I bought it. 
However, for me only a single swipe is enough as I have pale lips. So, the true color can be seen instantly. I feel that it is a sort of lip stain in a form of a lipstick and it is not transferable. I have been wearing it a lot lately.
After some time may be half an hour, it dries out my lips. So have to put a lip balm though the color is still there for a longer period of time.
The stick is very delicate and more prone to breakage, like mine did while I was only swiping it lightly. While the lipsticks I have in other brands are still intact so I guess it is something to do with the Enrich satin lipsticks not me, i suppose!
I wish that the cap could have been transparent at the top so that I can see the color quickly when I am in a hurry as I do have some other shade from the same brand. But anyways, I still manage that.
If you would like yo buy this shade then it is available at Violetbag.com or healthkart.com 
Here is the swatch-

It is very sheer because i only swiped it once, so as to give you actual idea of its sheerness.
Pros
  • Packaging is okay, we all are familiar with this, nothing so special.
  • Quantity  and price is reasonable.
  • Color pay off is good inspite of it being a natural color made for sheer coverage.
  • Color can be built by swiping it more.
  • It gives a nice pinkish orange color to your lips
  • It is not transferable unlike most of them.
  • It lasts for 3-4 hours even after having a light meal.
Cons
  • It is drying after sometime, so a balm would be needed.
  • Bullet is prone to breakage
My take- If you are looking for a natural pinkish sheer colored nude lipstick that can feel light on your lips and make your lips look much better than before then, you should give it a try. Though the color might look different depending on the actual color of your lips.

Rating- 3.5 out of 5
Will I repurchase: Definitely, till the time, I do not get any other better than this.
