Recently HOG was getting a lot of search queries like new Elle 18 lipsticks. I wondered is there a new version of Elle 18 lipsticks that I am not aware of. I browsed through and realized you people are looking for Color Boost Range of Elle 18 Lipsticks. So here I am writing a review of this range and putting up few swatches of a beautiful colour Superlicious Red from the same range.
Elle 18 is an affordable brand which is very popular among youngsters specially the college going girls. To be frank I never liked the initial versions of Elle 18 lipsticks since they lacked at the pigmentation front. But Elle 18 is improving its formula constantly and now the lipsticks perform really well at every front.

Packaging

The cap shows off Elle 18 logo with a Chic wearing a pink lip colour. The lipstick is dual core. At the core there is Cocoa Butter to give moisturisation as well as the sheen to lips.

Shade – Superlicious Red 10
The Color Boost range of Elle 18 lipsticks contain more than 15 beautiful colours. The shade Superlicious Red is a beautiful bright lip colour. Looks really beautiful on lips.
Texture & Smell
The texture of the lipstick is creamy and since it contains Cocoa butter it make the formula very easy to glide on lips and gives beautiful luscious lips. The lipstick does not smell a bit. Also does not taste weird.
Pigmentation
The pigmentation of Elle 18 lipsticks has improved a lot over the past few years. The pigmentation of this range is also decent. 1-2 swipes are enough to give that perfect colour to my lips.
Finish
The lipstick gives a satin finish. But a matte finish can be achieved by blotting your lips with a tissue. To achieve intense pigmentation, apply a layer of the colour to your lips and then blot with a tissue. Again swipe the lipstick bullet across your lips for final finish.
Longevity
Being a moisturizing lipstick the shade stays only for 2-3 hours and wears off leaving a beautiful reddish tint behind. Regular touch ups are required to keep the lips full of colour.
