An entire day of gossip, bonding with the girls and a glam photoshoot. Sounds wonderful, doesn’t it? That’s exactly what was in store for us at the “Red Party” that L’Oreal Paris had organised for us beauty bloggers from Bombay to mark the launch of the Collection Star Pure Red lipsticks (click here to know more about these lipsticks and see the swatches). The invite promised a super-exciting day of macaroons, manicures and makeup followed by a professional photo shoot!
We were asked to come in our bare-faced, frizzy-haired glory since we were going to have our makeup and hair styled professionally. Being among the first to reach the venue, I was immediately handed over to ace makeup artist Namrata Soni‘s team for my makeover. One person doing my hair, one doing my makeup….Oh, how I love that kind of pampering….
For each girl, Namrata and team chose a shade from the Pure Red collection they thought would look best with her skintone and features. As for me, I asked outright for Pure Garnet because I simply loved that shade!
And voilà. I was ready to face the cameras. Well, not really because I get terribly nervous and conscious in front of the cameras despite having got my portfolio clicked twice!
Once my photoshoot was done, it was time to have fun with the girls….
And you have no idea what a daunting task it is to get that perfect group shot! There would be one person blinking, one yawning, one looking in another direction..The amount of shuffling and adjustments that it took to “arrange” us all for the group shot made us feel like we’re posing for the class picture in school…
All the efforts paid off and the final pictures proved that it was all worth it….

the shade works very well and what an amazing experience. If only having others do your makeup and taking care of your look didn’t involve nerves, right? But that’s part of the experience and such an important part. Glad that you acknowledged it. I bet people often think that it’s just easy. You handled it very well and shined in the moment! Cheers, Maria
u look stunning babe…this is definitely the prettiest of the lot mwaaaaah
my god you all look stunning and I love your pics dear! <3 kisses
Lovely post Dollie! Everyone looks so beautiful in these Pure Reds! The girls from L’Oreal surely went all out to pamper you guys!
Loving all the shades as they’re all quite eye catching but Pure Garnet the most as I’ve never used that dark and bold a shade before!
Following you on all social media platforms since quite a few months now!
