Lakme Flaming Function 9to5 Crease Less Creme Lip Color Review

Lakme Flaming Function 9to5 Crease Less Creme Lip Color (Rs 450) 

Make an impeccable impact with a single stroke of confidence! New Lakme 9to5 Crease-less lipstick has 20 work ready shades which are not only long lasting but also totally crease-less! Its ultra-creamy texture glides smoothly, and hides lines in one stroke. SPF 15, vitamin E, olive oil and jojoba oil keep your lips nourished and healthy all day long.

Crease-Less is surely one thing that instantly caught my attention. I have lips with numerous fine lines and any lipstick that has slightly dry/semi-matte finish tends to get into all those cracks and wrinkles. I was quite intrigued and bought two shades, only to find out that its nothing more than a semi-matte lipstick.

Shade – Lakme Flaming Function is a beautiful pink-red shade. I  didn’t expect it to look this good on my skin. I like this shade as much as I love Lakme Wine Order Crease Less Lipstick reviewed before.

Formula & Texture – Flaming function has a semi-matte formula. It is on the drier side however doesn’t feel very uncomfortable if you apply a lip balm underneath. It glides on nicely without tugging or pulling however I find it slightly dry. Finish is semi-matte initially and turns completely matte after an hours or so. I see slight bleeding but a lip liner can fix the issue. Lips do feel dry after meals and I prefer applying on the top of it to get rid of the stretchy feeling.

Pigmentation – Lakme Crease Less Lipstick Flaming Function is very pigmented. I have swiped it only once in above hand swatch. It provides opaque coverage in one stroke, also you can use it as a stain by lightly dabbing it on the lips and finishing off with a clear lip balm.

Staying Power –  This is one thing that impressed me the most. Lakme Flaming Function stays on for good 6-7 hours with minimal fading. After meals it does fade a little from the middle of the lips though nothing much noticeable.

Overall Thoughts

I am quite pleased with the staying power and color pay off of Lakme Flaming Function crease less lipstick. However formula is little on the dry side and gets slightly uncomfortable after couple of hours. Finish is semi-matte and goes opaque on one stroke. If you hate touch ups during the day and looking for matte finishes, do try this one shade.
