I hv bought a lakme 9-5 lipstick (mr7) saffron gossip earlier and now lakme absolute (29). I m not happy with both. Lakme 9-5 saffron lipstick is smooth buttery but when u apply .. Cracks on the lips and the colour is scattered not spread evenly snd one can c my lip skin colour within lipstick. And i[censored] apply it again then also same problem ..i[censored] apply any other gloss or lipstick over it to cover the gaps it will peel off like second skin So staying till 9-5 is not helping as it is not covering lips. Regarding Absolute .. It is very dry, very difficult to apply evenly ... It seems I hv to put extra force to apply on lips and it is still not giving me smooth look. I hv usee absolute foundation 1199, absolute Kajal etc which is very good but this time these two lipsticks are not up to the mark For 9-5 maybe this colour Safforn is not good and but I hv used red that is very good.

      I purchased a fake iconic kajal on 27 November 2015. I want to take action against such fake products. Otherwise I will take strict action against lakme company by going to consumer court. Thanks n regards Pooja kapoor Mail id- discovery.[protected]@gmail.com

But it is found defective as I tried to apply on eyes but even after 2-3 stroke it is not applied. when i complaint about the product to Easy day (from where I bought) they denied to take it back & told me to file a complaint to company.So, I request you to refund or exchange the product.

            I have taken cysteine treatment from lakme bhopal on 14.08.2015 that costed me Rs.6500 +1950(shampoo n conditioner). Due to the inappropriate application My naturally silky hairs are turned rough like nylon n tangled like anything at ends.. If this is a kind of treatment therapy of a recognised brand like lakme for hairs which is turning normal hairs into damaged hairs then i am sorry but i will have to re-think about my 4-5yrs trust and association with the brand. I feel cheated and deceived as worst ever results have been shown by taking cysteine treatment even after spending so much. Kindly do not spoil the originality atleast if you can't do something good in the name of treatment. I will be thankful to you if you can turn my hairs back to the original status(atleast) if some positive change is not expected from the treatment.

            Lakme customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
            I had got a call from lakme customer care after 2-3 days of lodging the complaint here. They said that I cannot make a complaint directly and I should consult them first for spoiling my hairs. They derecognised my direct complaint to them through email and were angry about why I made a complaint to consumer forum. I am residing in Baroda and had gone to my native place Bhopal at that time so took the treatment there. I am unable to visit Bhopal due to my hectic schedule. Kindly confirm whether there is any clause that a customer cannot make a complaint before notifying the damages to the company. Specially when a well-known brand is incorrectly applying the procedure. I was told at lakme bhopal to wash my hairs after 72hours of the treatment (in which my hairs were burned and roughened). Although lakme baroda people gave me information that the treatment products should never be kept so long in the same treatment as it may damage the hairs. I was also advised to keep the conditioner in hairs for 5 minutes although the time mentioned in the product is 2-3 minutes. How the procedures of the same brand for same treatment differ at different places? Neither getting any clue regarding what should be done with my hairs. Nor getting time to visit Bhopal (my native place) as strictly instructed by lakme people. Kindly provide a solution whether a customer can make direct complaints or not? And also whether I can visit lakme baroda for referring the problem.

            I had got a call from lakme after 2-3 days of lodging the complaint here regarding why I have done a complaint for spoiling my hairs directly here. They de-recognised my direct complaint to them via email and told me to refer the matter to lakme bhopal first. I am working in Baroda and at the time of taking treatment I was in Bhopal which is my native place. Neither I am getting time to visit lakme Bhopal nor getting any clue what should be done with my rough and damaged hairs. While taking the treatment, lakme bhopal people told me to wash my hairs after 72 hours of applying the product and conditioner for 5 minutes (which is 2-3 minutes as mentioned in the given conditioner). I use to visit lakme baroda usually and i came to know from them that the product should not be kept in hairs for so long time as it will damage the hairs. How come the procedures and application of same product for same treatment differ at different places(which ultimately resulted in damaging my hairs).

            Also, my information given in the complaint is mis-appropriated and misused as i had got a call from a fraudster (on the same day of getting a call from lakme)who claimed to be calling from lakme and knew all my credentials shared in the complaint and was asking my online banking id and password for transferring the compensation into my account.

            These things are very weird and are even enough to loose the trust in the brand. Kindly provide some info regarding whether a customer can make a complaint directly here for the damages? Or else if there is a need to visit the saloon then can it be the near by one(lakme baroda)? Also what is the time limit for resolution of a complaint??
            I[censored] had such smooth and silky hair naturally, why did you go for this treatment. Please never ever get any chemical treatment done to your hair. Use a straightening iron i[censored] want but chemical treatments always ruin hair.

                Hi lakme team!

                I am Jyotsna Bist, a very loyal customer of your elite brand and have been using your products since long, quite satisfied with it and also advocate it in my peer and professional group.
                As is shared I buy almost every product of yours so I did try LAKME CC CREAM too. And frankly speaking, I absolutely loved it for its staying effect, appropriate coverage and it gave me perfect look which was also complimented by my friends!

                Unfortunately, my very next purchase changed everything into something very HORRIBLE and dis satisfactory.

                Details are as:
                Ist PURCHASE dETAIL
                SKU : 30ml
                SHADE : S#Beige
                MRP : Rs 250/-
                BATCH NO : B54

                EXPERIENCE : Spread ability : V good
                Staying effect: V good
                Coverage : V good, Consistency : Creamy

                IInd PURCHASE DETAIL
                SKU : 30ml
                SHADE : S#Beige
                MRP : Rs 250/-
                BATCH NO : B007
                MFG DATE : 2/15
                EXPERIENCE : Spreadability : Weird
                Staying effect: not at all
                Coverage : not at all, Consistency : Runny liquid
                Worst part is the white rubber type material which it leaves on skin after application.


                I believe this CREAM FORMULATION HAS EITHER GONE WRONG OR SEPARATED; OTHERWISE THIS WEIRD WHITE RUBBER TYPE THING SHOULD NOT BE FORMING. It was actually scary to see this thing on your face. For your better understanding I am attaching images of the above discussed two products.

                I am an active Lakme user and use products of other big brands in the market too. For any female consumer like me, it won’t be a matter of spending 250 bucks on a tube of some cream but getting the results as promised. I don’t expect to get transformed into some fairytale character but at least the basic utility of the product should be maintained. Not knowing if this is because of duplicity of your products or the poor quality of them itself, I feel cheated and disappointed. Because my money is wasted and so is the experience. I might not go for a Lakme product again in future or be so sure about its quality. How can such separated or deteriorated cream can get approval from your quality assurance department??? How would you like to advise me on this episode now, when I am on the losing side, after having wasted my money and a changed opinion for the brand I once simply adored!!!?

                I will be eagerly awaiting response from your end. Feel free to connect with me if further information needed from my end. I have already mailed this matter at below stated ids on 6th july 2015 but no response have been received yet.

                      I had a very bad experience with the staff named Geeta in the phoenix market city store . I already had pathetic experience in your whitefield store with hair stylists, your hair stylists are down right pathetic. When asked about products they don't know how to explain and have no clue what to say, they keep Asking to sit down and don't understand or even answer the questions. Today when I asked 3 times insistently Geetabecame rude and told the other artist to do it. They did not explain any thing and are extremely unprofessional and inefficient.you should shut your hair department.

                          I bought a lakme absolute Kajal last month from lakme outlet at Shipra Mall, Indrapuram. According to the sales girl it was excellent to use but to my disappointment it is not.It does not smudge and lasts for long but it is not convenient to use.It is very difficult to sharpen as it breaks and get wasted.It breaks while using too. I was told that it will last very long as compared to other from your brand but I feel it will not even last for a month. I will cheated as I wasted my hard earned money. I have been using your products since long but for the first time it is so very disappointing.

                                  I went for hair spa smoothening treatment at Lakme salon. The staff said that my hair would become smooth after the first wash. However, my hair has become poky and is standing upwards at the roots. It isn't bending freely which is making it look worse. On inquiry, I found that the chemical that was applied is Glatt. Hair spas are supposed to make one's hair look better, not worse.

                                      I have brought a Lakeme nail polis from Meerit Queen at Asansol, WB. But there is no price on the product.The price is taken Rs.92. But the shopkeeper said it's real value is Rs. 100. We give 8% discount . How it is possible? I do not know what the real price of that product. Kindly print the price on the any product for any suspect about the company. Please do the needful. Thanking You Arun Sarkar

                                        I Dr Priyanka Chamoli, got a cysteine treatment done from lakme churchgate, Mumbai, India alongwith a haircut by your Hairdresser Ms Tabassum on 19th april 2015. After a Hairwash in d parlour on day2 i noticed that my hair was cut unevenly. i told this to the manager MR PRADEEP SERA following which he said that he would have a word with the trainer. the trainer Ms Vishakha called me the same evening (21st april 2015) telling me that she would be available on 24th & 25Th of april 2015 to resolve my issues.on washing my hair at home i realised my hair were horribly cut and gave a burnt appearance.they felt rough on touching On calling on the 25th april 2015 morning, i get to know that Ms vishakha is not available today and i should come someother day. i told them i had to attend an important function and the whole exercise of spending so much money to get my hair fixed had gone waste. i currently have shineless frizzy hair that are cut unevenly.
