I love wearing Indian ethnic wear on special occasions or festivals. A Saree is one of my favourite ethnic attire to wear during Puja or family get-togethers. Again in sarees, I have a soft corner for handloom sarees. The beauty and feel of these handwoven slow crafted sarees are truly mesmerizing. It was Durga Puja time and Diwali is also approaching in few days, hence I thought to buy a beautiful handloom saree to celebrate all these festivals with extra joy. Huts and Looms Tissue Silk Saree In case you are wondering what a handloom saree is, then let me tell you in brief. Handlooms are basically handwoven fabrics made on a weaving machine called a loom. Hence, the name comes from HandLoom. It is a slow-crafted process, as it needs the utmost patience, creativity, and physical strength to create a masterpiece. Handloom sarees are generally priced because of this reason. I feel every woman looks graceful, powerful and amazing in a saree. Handloom sarees are representing our cultur
Hi guys,
Today I am going to share my experience with Nelf USA colossal eyeliner in shade 'Blue Sapphire ' . I got this inside one of my fab bags last year and have not used it till now. Few days ago while decultering my makeup stash, I found this one and started using . So here is my experience with this eyeliner cum kajal pencil.
Price - Rs150/- for 1.1gms.
Shelf life - 3 years from mfg.
Availability - Not easily available.. Got it inside fab bag ,so do check out fabbag's website.
The Nelf USA colossal eyeliner comes in a regular pencil form. Initially when I got it, I thought it is a retractable pencil but it's not actually . You have to sharpen it every time which i don't like to do. Another thing is the tip is quite bend kind in mine . i don't know if mine is a defective one or these are like this only. There is no sharpener with this liner which is again a down point. There is an outer cardboard box which has all the info regarding the product.
The shade Blue Sapphire is a very pretty vibrant teal green shade . It has very fine shimmers in it which is not harsh on skin yet looking little shiny. I love the colour . The texture is so creamy and soft . It glides on eyelids like butter and doesn't tag or pull. As it is so soft ,you need to be careful while applying otherwise it will break . It gives so smooth and precise application.
The colour is decently pigmented . It looks more vibrant on hand swatch but not look that much brighter on eyelids. Because of the creamy texture ,it doesn't stay more time on eyes. Means if you have oily eyelids then the staying time is less as compared to dry eye lids. It is not waterproof or smudge proof but also not remove away easily .
Pros..-
1- Beautiful bright teal green shade
2- Creamy ,soft texture
3- Glides smoothly on eyelids
4- Decently pigmented
5- Affordable
Cons..-
1- Not available easily
2- Have to sharpen each time
3- No sharpener provided along with
4- Not waterproof or smudge-proof .
Rating - 2/5
Final Verdict - I like the shade but not the packaging . And also we can have better options at this price from other brands too. I won't recommend anyone to try out this range ..
Hope you found this review helpful. See you in the next post with another exciting topic,till then stay blessed..
xoxo..

I really like the shade too..It's so vibrant and uplifting. Wish it was smudgeproof and water proof too! No point of buying a liner thà t can melt away with heat and come to your cheeks.lol
ReplyDeleteOh the final verdict is so useful . Made my money saved & now can go for some other one. Although I liked the shade, so in dilemma now.
ReplyDeleteThis Eyeliner seems to have a very good shade though as you mention in actuality there may be a difference when used. But again sharpening the pencil every time is also not very convenient.
ReplyDeleteI love the color of the eyeliner. I am a sucker for eyeliners. It seems to glide smoothly on skin. Will check it out.
ReplyDeleteThe colour seems really good and beautiful but the staying power is too low for me... Also the availability is a big issue! Will give it a miss!
ReplyDeleteLoved reading this brutally honest review, something which is rarely seen. Even I don't like eye pencils which needs to be sharpen every time before use. Thanks for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteThat is a stunning cobalt blue colour. I feel blue eyeliners really suit brown eyes, so I would love to try this product.

Woww.. was looking for a good eyeliner.. came across your post just at the right time.
ReplyDeletei just love blue eyeliner, I already have couple of them. This one looks amazing, except the fact that this needs sharpening, The sharpened corners of the pencils hurts at time.
ReplyDeleteI love this vibrant colour and creamy soft texture. I would be happy if they would have provided a sharpener with it. Will share this post with my friends.
ReplyDeleteThe color is beautiful must say, will definitely share this blog with my sister, she is going to love this shade its for sure, Thank you for sharing this beautiful review
ReplyDeleteVery detailed review I must say ! I too loved the product but the biggest shortcoming is the absence of sharpener. I guess the brand should note down what are the drawbacks.
ReplyDeleteI have tried blue colossal from maybelline before. Now I'm looking for a new one. will definitely check this one out.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the honest review. Brands need to pay attention to every detail before releasing a product. That's why people opt for brands like maybelline , loreal. etc.
ReplyDeleteNelf USA Clossal eye liner looks great. Never heard of it before but from your review it looks promising.
ReplyDeleteI love shades but it has a lot of cons in it. One has to think a lot about it before buying as you mentioned
ReplyDeleteI love trying colorful eyeliners on my brown eyes. This cobalt blue is a really attractive colour. I will check it out.

I loved the shade but since it isn't easy available it gets tricky. There are other brands offering similar shades, will try them instead.

ReplyDeleteI am a big fan of Nelf cosmetics as it offers high quality products at affordable prices . Really love this liner. The shade is beautiful
ReplyDeleteThanks for the honest review girl. I would skip buying this one as I want smudge proof eyeliner for me
ReplyDeleteActually I loved the color! But I guess there are flaws that can’t be ignored too...like it’s not smudge proof or it doesn’t come with a sharpener etc. So need to rethink...
ReplyDeleteThe shade looks nice but if it is not waterproof or smudge proof then i cant wear it often as my eyes are watery so eyeliner or if applied as kajal smudges fast.
ReplyDeleteI love the color really wanted to get it. I wish that it would be water proof and smudge proof.
