Clinique won my heart this time with awesome gift packs that it launched. This is just a first impressions review of the Whole Lotta Color Holiday Gift Box.
I hurried myself into posting this because it might not be available for long and I do not want you to miss it! It has 5 chubby sticks and the color selection is very nice – a cherry red, a rose, a brown, an orange and a pink – could you need anything else?
All gift sets are either bright orange or bright pink with a pink pull out and silver box.
What makes this a true value for money – it retails for 2050 INR which is almost like 400 INR each chubby stick…..let’s say the box is for 50. At 400 INR you are getting 1.2 gms while the full size is 3 gm and retails at around 1300.

Also, you get to try 5 colors which are very usable for everyday. I do not know when I will use Richer Raisin but then I can deal with it.
Richer Raisin
Curvy Candy
Chunky Cherry
Oversized Orange
Super Strawberry
Swatches
These are just some preliminary swatches under sunlight and shade. I will do a proper review of each shade with lip swatches by weekend. So, stay tuned!
Clinique Chubby Sticks Swatches. Top Row - Under Direct Sunlight, Bottom Row- lighted but not directly under sun. |
First Impression of Chubby Sticks - This is the first time I am trying Chubby Stick so I found that they have a funny smell in the beginning but that become unnoticeable after few seconds. They have a balmy texture and semi opaque finish with build-able color. Best part they are twist-up! No loss of products due to sharpening. I am loving them winter – very moisturizing!
Price – 2050 INR for 5 Chubby Stick of 1.2 gm each
Limited Edition – Holiday Set 2012

ReplyDeletethe price and the selection of the gift pack is perfect for something from Clinique

ReplyDeletehe he...you should if u like sheer colors
DeleteI think 2000 for a set of 5 is quite reasonable. Just wanted to know if the colourshows on lips.
ReplyDeleteYes they do quite well and the colors are buildable. I will do the lip swatch post on weekend. Stay tuned!
DeleteI Like packaging and nice deal for this price. I want different shades, can we ask for customization?
ReplyDeleteI am not sure about customization. They are the smaller size of the regular size and I do not think they will have it in other colors as well to fit in the box. You can check once to be sure
