I get to know about a new foundation launch, & I smirk (I am gonna get you girl!!!). I start googling about the offered shades, the texture, the longevity claims etc. If I like what I read, I plan my next visit to a store to swatch the foundation myself. Most of the times, the foundation ends up going home with me. (wink) I got Maybelline Fit Me Foundation, even before it was launched in India. The worst happened, I ended up with a wrong shade. It was wrong shade, but I was very impressed with the texture and coverage. When, finally, it was launched in India, I headed to…

Colorbar Starry Eye Mascara 01 Starry Blue : Review
Hello. How are you all doing? Coloured Masacara anyone? I always have been a fan of coloured mascaras as they are so playful. They add color to eyes with minimal efforts. You don’t need an eyeshadow palette or an eye shadow brush and your eyes will still attract all the attention. It’s shame that we don’t have much choices in India for coloured mascara. I have tried MUA Coloured mascaras in pink, blue & green colors in past. I was not impressed with the quality and consistency. So when Colorbar launched coloured mascaras I jumped right into grab few shades. Colorbar launched coloured mascara in 3 shades, so you can choose which…

Cheryl’s Cosmeceuticals Derma Cleanse : Review
I always prefer creamy cleansers than foamy face washes. I don’t like the soapy film that most of the face washes leave behind even after washing thoroughly. Especially at night, I always use a cleanser to take the day off from my face. My current favourite cleansers are Cetaphil & Cheryl’s Derma Cleanse. Most of the times, I go for Derma Cleanse because it’s specially formulated for acne prone skin. Cheryl’s Derma Cleanse, is specially formulated with cinnamon & biosulphur. Cinnamon provides antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and microdermabrasion benefits. Biosulphur contains sulphur which heals acne naturally. It is formulated for oily & acne prone skin. Price: Rs. 750 for 180ml. Ingredients:…

Cheap Thrills – Nude Lipsticks
I think, lipstick is the very first makeup item that a girl tries on herself, like I did, like all of us did, and then, “a very serious, life time long and unspoken love affair starts.” Lipstick shades are bought just on the go, no second thoughts are given if a shade is pretty enough. Hi girls, our lipstick love is a never ending saga, so today I am only going to talk about my nude lipsticks which are under 300 bucks i.e. budget buys a.k.a. Cheap Thrills. Nudes are must haves for a girl who is even little into makeup, whether it’s for her lips or eyes. If you…

Za True White Day Cream with SPF 20 PA++ : Review
Hi, I am going to write about the white girl in town, Za True White Day Cream. Za is from the house of Shiseido Japan which is an old and reputed brand in skincare and makeup. This particular line also comprises of an emulsion and night cream which I quite liked. It is another cream claiming to whiten the skin. But today’s woman of Internet era is not so ignorant. We all know skin color can’t be changed (read as whiten) unless we go through some surgical procedures or harsh chemical routine. Then why do we buy such creams labelled as ‘whitening’. We just wish to get rid of the un-even…
