The Comeback Post Or Not : The Everyday Staples for the Sensible Me

Sensible me. Cuz I haven't splurged on every random collection popped out by brands ;)

Moving on to the everyday staples that I literally can't live without  :

Lipsticks : Starting with these as I love my colors ;)

Dreaming Dahlia : I and See Sheer. We were are in love. But then I got a crush albeit celebrity one on dreaming dahlia. Celebrity crush as this was the last piece in the MAC store and it belonged to Deepika (The queen of Jhumkas). DD looks shamelessly bold in the tube but transforms to a sheer glossy reddish orange sheen on the lips. It helps that it is of lustre finish. If u hadn't guessed it already, yea I flicked it from her :D Thank u Deeps <3

Hot Tahiti : Scary looking ? yes. but goes a sheer berry red on the lips that can be built up easily.

Mehr : Enough has been written about this. A dirty blue based pink that looks almost pastel on me.

Time for the basics.

Garnier BB Cream : I go through tubes of this amazing product. It seems to blur the imperfections. Must have totally.


Kryolan Dermacolor Camouflage Cream : Own this in 2 shades courtesy my persistent dark circles. I pulled an all nighter and wore this in the morning. Nada dark circles. Will review them soon.

Lakme Absolute Kohl : Should repurchase this ASAP. Now once u know how smooth a Ferrari is u wouldn't go back to maruti 800 would u. It is the same with this kajal. Intensely black, smooth, waterproof, smudge proof (mostly) and lasts long.

L'oreal Volume Million Lashes Mascara : I was gaga over the Lakme Eyeconic mascara till I got this. Worth the moolah as I love the formula and the fanned out effect it gives.

MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium (?) : Not sure about the shade I own. A much loved product to set my concealer(s).

Seems like a lot of stuff but takes 10-15 minutes max to do my face.

I also keep the L'oreal Color Le Riche gloss in Violet Attitude handy. Really Moisturizing and smells just amazing :)

Till the Next Post
Ciao!!

Product of The Week : Garnier BB cream Review!

Want a soft glowing skin?? Well U might wanna give this bb cream a try ;) 

 

I did not want to get it initially but succumbed after all those raves and reviews :)

• It is priced at 119 for 18 g. Introductory offer at Rs.99/-.
• Packaging consists of a yellowish beige tube with a white cap.A nozzle is used to dispense the product.
• The texture is between cream and liquid.Just the right kind for blending.
• U do not need a lot of product.But yes more than the maybelline one.
• Does not give a whitish cast.
• The maybelline one disappointed me a lot.It was hard to blend and gave whitish cast that needed 15 mins to settle down.I don't have tat much time in the mornings.

• This one will suit oily skin gals better.Dry skin gals definitely need a moisturizer underneath.
• Only 1 shade launched in India but since there is no whitish/greyish cast it works for duskier skin too.
• Okay the claims are sky high!y???? It claims:

1. Fairer  looking skin
2. Healthy glow
3. Lines and imperfections reduced
4. Even skin tone
5. 8H moisturization

• Lets see :

1. Fairer looking skin: Ummm no.
2. Healthy glow: Check
3. Lines and imperfections reduced : I don't have lines.But I seriously doubt this claim.
4. Even Skin tone: It is sheer.Does not even conceal slight redness around the mouth/nose.So definitely no.
5. 8H moisturization : It works for oily/combination skin courtesy my sister.But It doesn't moisturize enuf for my dry skin.So NO from the Dry skin gang ;)

•  It lasted long like for about 6-7 hours on me! My skin did not look dull even after a tiring day :D

So If u r only looking for a skin brightening ( not lightening) product then this is for you ;) Skin does look  radiant :)

VERDICT:
A hell lot better product than the Maybelline BB cream.I might actually use up the entire product and even repurchase this :) But Miracle skin perfector?? Garnier says : U just got trolled!
