L'Oreal - Balmain limited edition lipstick - Rebellion (Blue)

L'Oreal along with the popular brand Balmain have come up with limited edition lipsticks in India. Its nice that finally make up brands are launching some exclusive , unique and crazy lipshades. One could only get such shades in Nyx, Inglot, mac and some not so famous companies. Revlon first came up with them, then maybelline and now we have L'Oreal with the limited edition lipsticks.
There are colours ranging in bright and dark purples, deep browns, unique nudes, blues and green. To me, the blue shade caught my attention the most simply because I already have a similar purple from mac (heroine) and also the latest lakme masaba collection purple. While browns and nudes are the usual and green is not really my colour, I went for the blue. Another reason to get this blue is because this can be teamed up with denims.
I remember as a child, while colouring, I always imagined how it would be if my crayons turn into lip shades and thats exactly what loreal has come up with.

So talking about the blue shade, the shade is called Rebellion and is a shade between royal blue and navy. It says it is color riche matte lipstick which is true but it also has a crayon like dry feel so I suggest applying lipbalm before applying. A proper outline is required since the colour is bright and therefore needs the right shape.
The packaging is of 3.9 grams in a fancy blue design. The lipstick looks like a designer piece in itself and stands out especially amongst the dull black and silver lipsticks.
The price is Rs 1050/- which I believe is okay since that is the range of L'Oreal products. Infact i expected it to be much more.

My take on the product - Buy it only if you want to experiment with colours like blue, green and bright purples or deep purples. Apply light gloss or lipbalm so that the crayon feel goes. I am mentioning this again as the problem that comes is the wrinkles of lips make it look chalky and messy.
Rating - 7/10 (but for the unique shades - 9/10)
