MOTD !!!

I was feeling down today cuz of the “3-day” problem and I thot of lifting my spirits thru makeup :D

So I put on Lakme perfecting liquid foundation and patted some concealor (Colorbar stick concealer) over my pimple!

Then I wore a pink shimmer blush (Maybelline Soft Plum) and paired it with my Peach lippie (Revlon Colorburst Peach) and topped it with a peach gloss (NYX Peach 13).

Lined my upper lashline with Maybelline gel liner and Elle18 Blue Blast liner on the lower lashline,curled my lashes with Vega Lash curler and finished with Amway Attitude Mascara :D 

And am wearing the Lakme true wear nailpolish N23 on my nails :D

Pears fresh and gentle Facewash!!

I fell in love with the bluueee tubeee..am crazy about this particular shade :D  It cost me 43 bucks and I got this for my sister.

It is mild and smells so fresh..love the smell :) and it also has minute exfoliating particles. My sis has normal to oily skin and I have dry and we found it suits both the skin types well!!

Now don’t all these make it a fab facewash???

I am skipping the Pros and Cons part as I am too lazy to type it :P

Review of UrbanTouch.com!!

So I ordered NYX Cream Blush in Tea Rose from UrbanTouch.com :) I had placed the order on Friday:2/12/2011.
They sent a confirmation mail immediately and mentioned they would ship within 4-6 working days(mon-fri).
Then on Sat they mailed me saying they have shipped my order.
They provide free shipping for purchases above Rs.300 !
I expected them to mail me specifying the day I would receive my goods but I didn't receive :|
On tuesday The Bluedart guy called me up and confirmed my address and I received my goods on Wednesday.
I wish they could have called before coming that day.
But I am happy with the packaging :) And since I had ordered for above 500 I got a surprise gift :) It turned out to be a Nail Filer from Faces and priced at Rs.65 :)
The blush was carefully wrapped in a bubble wrap and lots of thermocols were placed over and around the wrap :)

Incidentally I received a mail from them saying that They could not ship due to unclear shipment address :@ a day after I received my goods!
This really irritated me but am overall satisfied with their services :)
They provide discounts on certain products and a variety of brands and products are on display :) 
It is a good shopping option when we are too busy for real time shopping :)

Blush Lust: Maybelline Berry Sorbet Blush review!

Maybelline Expert wear in Berry Sorbet was my first ever blush!

Only 2 colours of this blush are available :
·         Berry Sorbet
·         Apricot Flush
I am reviewing the first shade.

swatched 4 times

swatched twice

The packaging is very flimsy.The brush provided is of no use.It is scratchy and does not help with blending.

It is a light frosty pink shade with silver shimmers.Very frosty!
 Gold shimmers I am ok with but silver??No thanks :(
The pigmentation is low..all I could see after applying it was the shimmers!I had to layer it several times.
But on the brighter side novices cannot go overboard in their intial attempts :)

     It will suit dusky beauties better :)

RATING:

:D U r better off getting the Apricot flush :) It is pretty warm honey shade and suit most :)

Rekha's Goodies !!

I received Rekha's (Makeup and Beauty Reviews!!) goodies on Sunday :)Was not well so couldn't post about it!

Thank u Rekha :D I loved all d stuff :)

Bourjois Khol and Contour-Brun Design review!

I own only lil eye makeup and this is one that I use often since black luks harsh to me sometyms(moody sigh!).I like Bourjois products as they are of great quality and this 1 is not exception ;) but has some minus points.

      I own 2 shades in the Khol and Contour Range: Brun Design and Noir Expert.

     Brun Design is a chocolate brown colour.

It is intense and one swipe(well nt exactly but u get d point ;) ) is enuf to show up even on my ghost eyes.But the less exciting factor is that it is Not Smudge-proof.Like if u accidently touch ur eyes ..uff!But if u manage nt to harm it ,it stays put for long hours :)

       I am pretty ok with this since it is a Khol pencil.Hence,it is totally waterline safe-tried and tested :) 

            I am going to try the FACES eye pencil as Poohkie has raved about it :) It is smudge-proof and waterproof :D Also Need to try the Duochrome range:) Yup..I am always late :P

RATING:

:D :D :D

Lipstick Love:ColorBar Nectar Lipstick Review and Swatches!

This was my first lipstick .I asked the SA for the Irish rose shade. But she asked me the shade number which I didn’t know.She picked up the nectar shade and told me it would be my perfect MLBB shade.It looked orangish in the misleading shop lights. Someone should invent lights that produce the same effects as day light :| On reaching home,I discovered that it is a dusty pink shade.

I top it with a gloss as it washes me out sometimes.It is creamy and costed me Rs.150.But Colorbar has raised its prices :@
Packaged in a square transparent plastic box.
Has a creamy texture and is well pigmented :)
Finish is glossy and creamy. 
It lasts maximum 3 hrs on me due to its texture and u might need a lipliner underneath.
I skip lip balm with this.

Overall it is a everyday wear pink shade which will suit fair skintones to the T but may wash u out if u possess medium skin tone.

St.Ives Whipping Silk Lotion Review

As promised here I am with another winter skincare product review :) Let me make this easy for u :I WORSHIP tis LOTION!

It is a thick white lotion but thickness in the right degree :) It is highly moisturising. My dry skin becomes very dry in the winters and shows off white dry patches. So I need a strong moisturiser: something in the line of AM almond lotion.(link) And I got it this after reading a great review :)

It is economical-u get a large quantity: 532 ml for 290 Rs :D :D

And it gets absorbed quickly :)

There are variations in this range.I saw the Vanilla and aloe vera ones in the H & G stores.

But the best part is:

IT IS PARABEN AND PTHALATES FREE  :D :D :D

RATING:

U know by now how much grateful I am to this lotion!!!

RECO:

Must have for dry skinned sufferers :)
