Outfit of the day! The desi look

Hey everyone,

I thought I would share my outfit for my cousin sister's wedding. I had been planning to wear a parandi for so long but never got a chance. Finally I thought of wearing it for one of my sister's wedding. The look was totally Punjabi. Let me know what you think about it.

Oh and all of that hair is not mine. When I got to know that I would have to use some extra hair my reaction was like 'ewwwwwwwww'. Anyways I kept aside my feelings and gave my hair over to the lady who did this hairdo. 

Do comment and let me know what you think of it :) Take care.

Oriflame blending brush review

Hey guys,

Here is the review on a brush that I have been meaning to review since so long but never got around to it. It is a very affordable brush from Oriflame cosmetics. How I found the quality to be? Read on to know more.

Price:- 169/- when I bought it

When I first saw this brush in the catalog I thought that it is a pretty inexpensive brush and does deserve a try. I ordered it and tried it. But unfortunately I found the brush a bit harsh to be used on the eyelids. I am not sure if I have very thin eyelids or something but any brush that is even a little bit harsh irritates the eyes. And this brush ended up being a bit too rough.

Maybelline moisture extreme lipcolor in Iced orchid review

Hey everyone,

How are all of you? Here I bring forth another lip color which is a very recent buy. Actually my sister bought this color and I bought the Jewels lipcolor in Berry brilliant. But we ended up exchanging our lipcolors so that brings this review J

Price:- 250/-

Mac Prep+Prime transparent finishing powder review

Hey everyone,

Here is another review from Mac. As you all know I had ordered some Mac samples from thebodyneeds2.com during their sale. I had ordered this transparent finishing powder because I had a feeling that it would be really nice in setting the concealer. Oh boy and did my intuition turn true. I have been using this powder for over two months now and here goes the review for it.

Price:- I got this sample size for almost 3 $, don’t really know the price for the full size.

Mac eyeshadow review- Soft brown

Hey guys,

The review for this eye shadow was long pending and I thought I should do it today itself. I hunted for this eye shadow in so many Mac store but none of them had it. Apparently it had been discontinued in India a few months back. Then I hunted for its dupes in Inglot and other brands but somehow none of them looked like this one. It was then that I asked my cousin to send me this eye shadow, when my aunt came to India. And luckily she got it at a Mac store there and sent it to me and I was all happy!

Price:- $11 in Usa and 720/- in India

Maybelline color sensational lipstick in Fatal red review

Hey everyone,

Here I got with my review of another inexpensive red lipstick for you all. The earlier one I reviewed was a Lakme one in number 352 which is also a gorgeous red. Here I am reviewing another one that I won in a gift hamper sent to me by urbantouch for winning their mother’s day contest. It had many reds and other darker colours because it was supposed to be for my mom. But since my mom does not use such a ‘Fatal red’ colour I kept it for myself. J

 Price:- 299/- or 350/- I am not sure since I won it

Lakme eyeconic mascara review

Hey guys,

Here is my review on the recently very popular mascara which is the Lakme’s eyeconic mascara. Eyeconic is a very affordable mascara which claims to give you super curled eyelashes. I have been trying out this mascara for about 2 months now and thought of reviewing it for you guys today.

Price:- 200 or 250/- Don’t remember the exact amount

I never prefer to buy mascaras which are really expensive, the reason being that they expire in about 6 months and grow bacteria and all which can cause harm and infections to your eyes. So spending more than 400 on mascara according to me is a waste. Besides almost all the mascaras do the same work. This mascara fit my bill perfectly and I also wanted to give it a try. So here goes the review.

Colorbar newly launched blush swatches

Hey guys,

I was spending killing some time in my local New U store when I asked the lady at the Colorbar counter about these newly launched blushes. She showed me the testers which actually looked as if they were pieces to be sold. But in actual the blushes have nt arrived yet, only their testers. Anyhow I swatched the colors in the store so you can get an idea about them. :)

Oh and the price is 650/- which I think is a little too much for Colorbar.

Enjoy the pictures :)

Mac blush review- Peaches

Hey everyone,

How are you all doing? Finally after so many days I have lots of free time to write for my blog. I had been so wrapped up in work and my cousin's wedding that my blog went too ignored. Anyhow I am going to write about my second blush from Mac which is Peaches. I bought this blush a few months back when I went crazy for the color Peach. I wanted everything peach from blush to eye shadow to lipcolor. After reading lots of good reviews about this blush I decided to give it a try. The SA tried Peaches and Melba on me. And I don’t know if its because of how he applied the color or maybe the color of my skin but melba looked as if someone had just slapped me. So I went for peaches inspite of him convincing me that melba looked better. How I liked it, read on.

Price:- 1350/-

My mua order number 1 + Swatches

Hey everyone,

Look what I got this friday!! The first of my two mua orders. They had such interesting things that I just placed another order a few days after the first one. My order was shipped on the 22nd and I received it on 30th, so that is some pretty fast shipping time. I ordered two mascaras, three lip colors and a shimmer bronzer. I am loving all the products. Though the lip colors were a total guess I still like them a lot. My absolute favorite is number 3 which is a bright pink that looks really nice.

See all the pictures of my order and the swatches. I will do the detailed reviews soon :) Let me know what all you guys ordered.

My first Vellvette box! November edition

Hey everyone,

After seeing all the wonderful products you all got in your vellvette boxes, I decided to give it a try too. After a long wait I got my November box filled with 3 beauty samples. Like most of you all, even I got Nyx but luckily the colour is a very usable one since it is golden and I do not regret getting it much. 

Vellvette box is basically a beauty subscription where you pay 399/- a month and get a box filled with luxury beauty samples and occasionally some full sized products. See the below pictures in order to know what all I received :)
