Lakme Absolute Gel Stylist Nail Color Pink burst (Rs 400 for 15 ml)
Lakme Absolute Gel Stylist Nail Color Pink burst is a medium hot pink. I loved the new packaging, the brush is good wide one that covers nails in two swipes.
Formula has just the right consistency, neither runny nor thick. I needed 3 coats to get opaque finish and that was quite depressing. It doesn’t get streaky.
The finish is glossy that remains the same even after 3-4 days. The formula remains intact for 3-4 days and then starts fading from tips. I was expecting a longer staying power though at this price.
That’s how it looks (3 coats)
What I liked
- Smooth texture, No streaks.
- Glossy Finish that stays the same for good 4 days.
- Good quantity for the price (15 ml).
- Brush is of good quality
- Formula has right consistency.
What I disliked
- Expensive
- Starts fading from tips in 3-4 days.
Overall Thoughts
Lakme Absolute Gel Stylist Nail Color Pink burst is a beautiful shade. I liked the formula and finish, though there is nothing special about the product that it has been priced so high. The quantity is good, also the applicator is wide and covers nails in 1-2 swipes. Formula applies smoothly without streaks and stays on good for 3-4 days. This range has some really pretty shades, though I would not really buy any more shades because of the price. I would rather buy more shades from color crush or Absolute Nail Tints

I am disappointed with the formula. I was expecting true gel based nail paint. Pschh idk untill when brands keep fooling consumers.

True shweta, there is nothing distinct in this formula that a regular nail paint doesn’t have.

Your nails are superb and the nail colour is amazingly looking cool on it.
But it is quite costly when you need three coats to get it opaque. 🙂 😀
Is it true?
Shalini
Thanks, I know three coats are too much when you have spent 400 bucks 😉
lakme absolute
I will definitely try it.
