Product Packaging

This lipstick comes with a matte silver colored plastic case with a clear cap. Its cap is perfect, making it travel-friendly and easy to carry around in your purse. The lipstick tube comes in a silver cardboard box with the detailed product description, but surprisingly Lakme hasn’t mentioned the ingredient list. Its silver carton looks very attractive than the tube itself.

Texture And Fragrance

This lipstick formula has a creamy, soft texture with an almost powdery formulation. It’s easy to use and glides smoothly on the lips without tugging or pulling. Also, I noticed that some shades go on differently than others – some of them are a pure matte while a few are on the semi-matte side.

Much like the Lakme Enrich Satin finish lipsticks, these have a sweet, flowery yet very cosmetic-like fragrance. If you are sensitive to smell, this may bother you. However, it fades within a few minutes of application.

Pigmentation And Performance

The pigmentation coverage of these lipsticks is quite decent. However, it takes a minimum of two to three swipes of the formula to achieve a fully opaque finish and this especially applies to the lighter shades from the range. The formula is neither too dry and nor too moisturizing, and thus it feels comfortable to wear. However, one major drawback of this lipstick is that it highlights dry areas or cracks on the lips because of its powdery texture and also settles into lip lines. It also fades unevenly through the day, leaving an intense stain which is so hard to remove.

Staying Power

It stays on for around 4 to 5 hours with light snacks in between. It requires a retouch after heavy meals like most lipsticks.

Lakme Enrich Matte Lipstick Shades

This lipstick formula comes in a range of 25 vibrant shades to suit every skin tone and from pinks to reds and nudes to mauves, you have a whole bunch of options to choose from. To make it easier, here’s what each shade offers – BM: Brown matte, RM: Red matte, WM: Wine matte, PM: Pink matte and OM: Orange matte.

Shade BM 10 – This shade is a nude brown with strong yellow undertones. It looks great with smokey eyes and is also great for daily wear. However, this shade will only flatter fair skin tones as it tends to wash out other skin tones.

Shade BM 11 – BM 11 is a dark brown chocolate shade that goes well with fair to medium skin.

Shade BM 12 – This one’s a deep brown shade that complements fair to medium skin tones. However, this color goes on dry and looks rather uneven and streaky.

Shade PM 10 – PM 10 is a hot raspberry pink and will flatter all skin tones well. It’s great for daytime wear and instantly brightens up your face.

Shade BM 11 – BM 11 is a dark brown chocolate shade that goes well with fair to medium skin.
