Medora Matte Lipstick -Cherry Wood #207 Review & Swatches

-
Hi Girls !
Isn't it nice to find few lovely shades of Mac or Bobbi Brown in cheap local and affordable brands? My review of today is on a local brand Medora of London which contains a wide range of lipsticks and nail polishes. Medora is easily available nationwide on all cosmetic stores. This brand is made in Pakistan. Its lipsticks and nail polishes are my favorite ones. They have a wide range of matte ,shinny and glittery lipsticks. Matte lipsticks are my favorite ones. I like to use matte lipsticks due to their long lasting power. I am not a bold color lover. I always love to go with nude,pink or peach colors. But I love trying different nail and lipstick colors.
In winters I wanted to try a bold dark brown color for myself. I have found one in Mac named Dark Side. But I was confused to give it a try. Whether it will look good on me or not. I thought to find this color in some cheap brand as spending 2500 on just checking whether this color will look good on me or not was a bad idea.
One day on my visit to a makeup shop I found this color in Medora named Cherry Wood #207.
Medora is already my top favorite local brand for lipsticks and nail polishes. What should I expect more :) ? I bought this shade and tried it with pale gold eye makeup look.
Packaging is just OK. It comes in a dark gray plastic tube which is covered outside in a cupboard small box. I threw that box so I don't have picture of it.
Cherry Wood is a nice dark brown color. This shade can look good on all skin tones. It is a matte shade which lasts longer on lips. This lipstick can lasts for up to 6-8 hours without smudging or bleeding out, one of the best feature of Medora lipsticks.
Colors are highly pigmented .One coat can give the dark brown color. It gives nice color pay off. Formula is creamy and doesn't dry out lips while applying. It glides smoothly on lips, giving velvety matte look .My favorite one :)
It is still better than some expensive brands. Only drawback of Medora lipsticks is that their dark colors leave stains on lips .
It costs Rs. 100 . Which is very affordable and availability is easy.
I feel Medora should expand their lip color range as they have few color shades.

Swatches :

Here you can see the swatch of the shade .It looks exactly same to the Mac Dark Side .





Liked :

  • Matte look
  • Cheap price
  • Highly pigmented
  • Long lasting power
  • Same shade as Mac

Disliked :

  • Some dark shades leave stains on lips

Rating :

10 out of 10

Repurchase:

Yes .I Will buy some other shades.
Who is going to try this Medora lipstick after reading my review ?
Do write it in comment box.

L'Oreal Elvive Active Selenium Anti-Dandruff Shampoo Review

I have used every shampoo, well known products and  dermatologists  prescriptions  for dandruff control.  But nothing worked for my scalp. My dandruff was too stubborn. I was very disappointed. I stopped finding any cure for it. On my visit to a super store, I caught the sight of L’Oreal Elvive Active Selenium Anti-Dandruff Shampoo on the counter shelf. I grab it just to wash my hairs like any other shampoo. I was already disappointed of the results I got from famous anti dandruff products that I had used in the past. So this was just an ordinary shampoo for me.  The shampoo comes in a large dark blue plastic bottle. The product claims effective from first use, effective results for up to 4 weeks, even if you stop using it. Reduces the appearance of persistent flakes. Let’s find out their claim proven to be right or wrong ;) My Experience:   It is densely thick and light orange in color. It makes great foam unlike other dandruff shampoo. Th...

Hello Friends,  I am happy to know that I am the first one to write a review about Swiss Miss Lipstick ;) Do you remember? We have seen our mothers and aunts using Medora and Swiss Miss lipsticks in the past. Both of them are probably the pioneers of establishing the cosmetics trend in Pakistan. Swiss Miss is a brand of Admiral of New York. My review of today is on Swiss Miss Lipstick shade Pretty Pink. I am in love with pink shades. It catches my sight everywhere, whether I am buying clothes, shoes, bags or cosmetics. This purchase happened due to my love for pink :) I have never bought any product of Swiss Miss before. This is my first purchase from Swiss Miss. I loved the packaging. In fact it makes it look like an expensive lipstick. It comes in a black plastic tube with a thin silver line around the opening. This tube is again covered in black cardboard box with product details and ingredients mentioned. The box says “vibrant color matte lipstick”...
