Nisha Malik — Tue, 18 Apr 2017 13:52:08 +0000

Guest Post by Sam Sheokand Oil control, acne control, neem, tea tree oil etc are the key words, that attracts me towards face washes specially during summer. I have oily skin, which is acne prone too. For me oil control leads to acne control too. Oil & dirt are the basic reason behind my acne spots. I make sure to keep my skin oil & dirt free. Aroma Magic is a trusted brand. It hardly fails on my skin. When I spotted Aroma Magic Neem & Tea Tree Face Wash online, on Amazon, I instantly added it to my cart. I am going to share my experience with this face wash. Hope it helps you too, if you have oily skin like mine. About Aroma Magic Neem & Tea Tree Face Wash Aroma Magic is an old & very reputed brand. It caters to our skin, hair & body care needs. It offers quality products at affordable prices. Aroma Magic Neem & Tea Tree face wash, is formulated with Neem, Tea Tree oil, Rose Extracts & Lavender Oil mainly. The face wash is free of artificial coloring, alcohol, parabene, soap & fragrance. Neem & Rose extracts helps to cure acne while Tea Tree Oil & Lavender Oil soothes skin irritation and prevents blackheads. Vitamins present in the face wash helps to lighten the ark spots while revealing even toned skin. Price Rs. 135 for 100ml. Buy here. Ingredients Packaging The face wash comes in a very attractive & refreshing packaging. It comes in ombre green colored plastic bottle with a flip top cap at the top. On the front of the plastic bottle there are some beautiful flowers printed while at the back all the information about the face wash has been printed. Color, Texture & Smell It is yellowish green colored gel type face wash which lathers well while diluted with water. face washing with this face wash becomes a rejuvenating experience as it smells mainly of tea tree oil. The smell is not overpowering but is pleasant. Washing off the face wash does not require much effort, but requires as much water as any other gel based face wash would require. My Experience With Aroma Magic Neem & Tea Tree Face Wash Acne control/oil control face washes are generally drying in nature. They dry out skin so much that skin produces more oil as a result. Which totally beats the benefits of using an oil control face wash. Aroma Magic Neem & Tea Tree Face Wash, is a non drying face wash. It does not dry out my skin even a bit. I do not feel any stretchy feeling after washing my face with this face wash. I think Rose Extracts moisturizes skin while Neem & Tea Tree Oil cleanses it. This is my second bottle of this face wash. Since summers knocked on our doors early this year, my skin was producing a lot of oil and would feel sticky after 2 hours of through cleansing. But this face wash is proving to be very effective. My skin feels normal & balanced, no dryness, no oiliness. My skin is behaving like a good girl. As a result my face is spots free too. The face wash is economical, as little amount of the gel face wash is required for each application. Likes Gel based refreshing face wash. Contains Neem, Tea Tree Oil, Lavender Oil & Rose Extracts. Free of parabenes, artificial colors, fragrance & soap. Lathers well. Does not dry out skin. Controls oil & keeps skin fresh for long hours. Normalizes skin with regular usage. Specially meant for oily skin. Affordable & economical. Dislikes None Summary : 5/5 This is one hell of an oil balancing face wash that I have come across. I love everything about it, the herbal composition, the gel based texture, the smell & the affordable pricing. It is a must try face wash for oily skin beauties. Which face wash do you use during summer? Have you used this face wash? Leave your comments. Love.

Aroma Magic 7 Steps Bridal Glow Facial Kit : Review

Nisha Malik — Wed, 12 Apr 2017 13:10:51 +0000

Guest Review By Nidhi Dabral Nisha has Oily skin type, while my skin type is Normal. The contents of Aroma Magic 7 Steps Bridal Glow Facial Kit contain quite creamy consistency. So she handed over this facial kit to me to test it out for her. I am glad she did. I was suffering from little bit tanning on my face. Nothing major, but I could definitely use a cleanup. Let me walk through the facial kit contents & the process, which helped me get back my natural glow. About Aroma Magic 7 Steps Bridal Glow Facial Aroma Magic 7 step Facial kits is introduced as Salon Range. They are used in Salons mostly but are not limited. We can use them at home at our convenience. The Facial Kits are formulated with unique & natural ingredients to counteract the damage due to environmental pollution & stress leaving skin polished & rejuvenated. Enhances Natural Glow Imparts Dazzling Radiance Revitalises From Within Suitable Skin Types Price Rs. 725 for 5 usage kit. One kit costs about 180 bucks though. Buy here. Packaging The facial kit comes in a pack of 5 individual kits which again contain 7 steps of the facial regimen. A single facial kit contains: Creamy Face Cleanser Exfol Gel Skin Serum Nourishing Cream Face Pack Hydrating Gel Sunscreen My Experience This is a 7 step facial kit. I shall share my experience with this facial kit step by step as I used the components. Step 1 – Facial Cleanser Ingredients – Natural extracts of Turmeric, Rose, Lemon Peel, pure essential oils of Geranium, Lavendar, Ylang Ylang & Vegetable Waxes. The facial cleanser is the very first content of the facial kit to be used. It is a creamy cleanser. It is supposed to be massaged on to the face for 3 minutes & then wiped off with a wet cotton. I have Normal skin type & the facial cleanser felt really good on my skin type. My face looked clearer since it took care of the dirt & grime off my face. It smells nice & mild. Step 2 – Exfol Gel Ingredients – Extracts of Peppermint, Sage, Cornflower, Fruity acids of Sugarcane and pure essential oils of Peppermint, Orange & Lavender. This is a pinkish thick gel. Although it is named as Exfol Gel, there are no scrubbing particles. It gives cooling sensation since it contains Peppermint. Initially I though it’s just a gel. But instructions says that it is supposed to be kept as a mask for about 10 minutes and then scrubbed off with dry fingers. I somehow missed the instructions & just washed it off without scrubbing it. Later I used a separate scrub. Step 3 – Skin Serum Ingredients – Apricot, Elder Flower, Carrot, Basil Jasmine, Organic Fruit Acid. The serum comes in a glass ampule which is very hard to break and one must be really careful while using & disposing it. The serum is like water and non sticky texture wise. The skin serum is packed with a lot of power packed ingredients. This face serum targets age signs by its lifting & firming action. It rejuvenates skin cells & balances moisture levels. Removes fine lines and keeps skin young & glowing. I applied this serum on my face and neck & left it for 3 minutes. I can not judge it’s firming effect since I am in early 20’s. But it definitely felt good. Step 4 – Nourishing Cream Ingredients – Extracts of Rosemary, Jasmine, Vitamin A,C,E and pure essential oils of Geranium, Vetiver & Peppermint. This is a massage cream packed in the facial kit. Normal to dry skin would really love the consistency & the calming effect on the skin. It is very smooth & velvety to touch. Facial massage helps to boost up blood circulation & imparts glow as a result. My skin’ dryness & flakiness was taken care of by this massage cream. I was really impressed by the natural ingredients that this cream is formulated with. This cream is supposed to be massaged for around 15 minutes before wiping away with wet cotton. Step 5 – Face Pack Ingredients – Organic Fruit Acid, Extracts of Orange peel, Clove and pure essential oils of Neroli, Orange & Petitgrain. This is a creamy AHA face pack. AHA is good to erase age signs. It helps to lighten & brighten skin complexion & promotes healthy glow on face. The face pack is supposed to be mixed & applied with Hydrating Gel that I am going to talk about next. Step 6 – Hydrating Gel Ingredients – Extracts of Seaweed, Lotus , Flax Seed, Aloe Vera and pure pure essential oils of Neroli, Rose & Lavender. This yellowish gel gives a calming effect to the skin. It calms down skin’s irritation & redness due to the presence of Seaweed. It is little difficult to mix the face pack and this hydrating gel but gives a nice consistency upon mixing well. Apply the mixture for about 15 minutes and then wipe of with wet cotton. Step 7 – Sunscreen Ingredients – Extracts of Cucumber, Green Tea, Lemon, Aloe Vera, Octyl Methoxycinnamate, Benzaaphenone, Vitamins A,C,E & pure essential oils of Orange Blossom & Lavender. A sunscreen is must after doing a clean up facial be it salon or at home. Hence aroma Magic supplies a specially formulated sunscreen with all it facial kits to protect skin from harmful UVA & UVB sun rays. It is formulated with natural sun blocking agents. The consistency of the white colored sunscreen from this kit is non oily and fast absorbing. It gives matte finish. There is little white cast after using the sunscreen, but is manageable. SPF content of the sunscreen is not mentioned, though. This concludes the facial steps of the Bridal Facial Kit from Aroma Magic. The process is little long. But you definitely enjoy a wonderful clean up at home. Try it sometime. Likes Salon range facial kit for home use. Gives a nice clean up at affordable price. Suitable for Normal to Dry skin. Gives nice glow & takes care of the dead skin & tanning with just first use. Dislikes Too many steps. It is meant to be used for all skin types, but I really doubt it. The facial kit has too many creamy components which might clog oily & acne prone skin. Summary : 4.5/5 For Normal To Dry Skin, Aroma Magic Bridal Facial Kit, is a very good at home clean up facial. It is affordable & gives very nice results with first use. But, I am not satisfied with the gel based scrub. Also, I would not recommend this particular version to oily skins, but Aroma Magic Skin Glow Facial Kit is definitely meant for all skin types. Hope you liked my first piece on High On Gloss. Hope to write more here. Peace.

Aroma Magic Almond Moisturising Lotion : Review

Nisha Malik — Wed, 15 Feb 2017 00:18:40 +0000

Good Morning Girls. Aroma Magic is one of the brands that I have complete faith in. Most of the products from Aroma Magic have fared really well on me. It has targeted lines for every skin and hair concern. The brand is really proud to be of all the natural ingredients it uses, also it does not believe in adding petrochemicals, parabenes or preservatives. This fact makes it more exotic to the people who like to use natural products. I am going to talk about a moisturizing lotion from Aroma Magic today which is very effective in healing dryness without making skin oily. This is mainly formulated with Almonds. It also contains SPF 15, which is great if you are not going out. About Aroma Magic Almond Moisturizing Lotion Enriched with the goodness of Almonds, this is a moisturizing lotion which is free of preservatives, artificial colours & fragrance. It also contain SPF 15, hence it moisturizes, protects and rejuvenates skin at same time. It also contains Almond fruit and lotus leaf heals the skin imparting natural glow. While Wheatgerm & Jojoba Oil with Mango Seed Butter, repair & sooth dry & damaged skin. It also contains Patchouli, Geranium & Rose Essentials Oil to revive the skin leaving it lustrous and healthy. Price Rs. 290 for 200ml. Buy here. Ingredients Packaging The lotion comes in a transparent plastic bottle with transparent flip top cap which can open by unscrewing too. The packaging contains all the information about the product including the ingredients. Colour, Texture & Smell This is a white coloured lightweight lotion which absorbs fast without leaving anything behind, no greasiness or oiliness. It has a powdery smell depicting of Almonds for the obvious reason. I am not much fan of the smell since it is little strong for my sensitive nose. My Experience I like to experiment with products other wise I get bored of using the same product all year long. I just can’t deny this fact that sometimes due to this habit of mine, I face skin eruptions. So I always try to choose lightweight products so that they do not clog my pores. Almonds are supposed to be heavy in moisturisation so I was bit skeptical about using this lotion. To my surprise, the lotion is lightweight hence it does not take much efforts to sink into my skin & my skin is moisturized the very moment. Since it is lightweight lotion, there is no oily residue left behind. Skin is revived and feels calm and soft. A pea size amount is required to moisturise my face and neck, the product is going to last very long. Also SPF 15 is good enough to provide sun protection if I stay indoor while won’t be sufficient if I step out. Likes Lightweight moisturiser. Contains goodness of Almonds, Jojoba Oil, Wheatgerm & many other essential oils. Absorbs fast without leaving any residue behind. Moisturises skin and provides healthy glow. Contains SPF 15. Affordable & economical. Free of parabenes, artifical fragrance & colours. Dislikes The lotion has a strong smell of Almonds which I personally do not like. Summary : 4.5 It is an affordable and economical lightweight moisturiser to provide intense moisture to skin without any feeling heavy on skin. It is suitable for all sin types. It is free of petrochemicals, artifical fragrance & colours.

Aroma Magic 7 Step Skin Glow Facial Kit : Review

Nisha Malik — Sun, 18 Dec 2016 17:25:33 +0000

Aroma Magic 7 Step Skin Glow Facial Kit is one of my favorite facial kit for instant glow and clean up. It has 7 number of steps to follow which might be cumbersome in case you are short on time. But the results are enticing. Why so many steps? This facial kit is targeted to be used by all skin types, hence the steps are devised to make sure that every kind of skin is benefited. But it does not mean that you should be following the steps as such. I skip the bleach step as I do not use bleach. You can too follow the steps as suits you. About Aroma Magic 7 Step Skin Glow Facial Salon Range Kit I have formulated this 7 step facial to provide a quick, effective way to lighten complexion, dark circles and even out the skin tone of the face and neck area. The natural ingredients gently remove the dead skin layers and restore clear, bright skin to your client’s face Lightens complexion and dark circles Evens out the skin tone of the face and neck are Restores clear bright skin All suitable types Also Read : Aroma Magic 7 Steps Bridal Glow Facial Kit : Review Price Retails at Rs. 725 for 5 usage kit. I got it for about 600 bucks from an general store in Gurgaon. Packaging It comes in a pack of 5 individual kits which again contain 7 steps of the facial regimen. A single facial kit contains: Face Cleanser Protein Bleach AHA gel Skin Serum Oxygenating Gel Face Pack Sunscreen The kit has a nice Magenta Pink theme. There is a drawer like paper box inside which 5 facial kits are packed. Related Posts: VLCC Gold Facial Kit VS VLCC Salon Series Insta Glow Facial Kit Aroma Magic 7 Steps Bridal Glow Facial Kit : Review My Experience With Skeyndor Skin Diagnosis Machine My Experience With The Kit I am going to elaborate each component of this kit. This is going to be a long post. Please stay with me. This single pack contain 5 different kits, which are suppose to give 5 uses, but the product in every kit is enough to be used twice. Hence I get to manage 10 uses out of this Single Magenta Pink themed facial kit. Step 1 – Face Cleanser Cleanses, lightens and brightens skin with grapefruit, lemon and aloe vera extracts. Itightens pores with vitamin C and beta carotene. Ingredients: Aqua, decyl glucoside, cocamidopropyl betaine, olive esters, cymbopogan martini oil, aloe barbadensis leaf extracts, grandis seed extract, citrus medica limonum extract, fruit dervied beta carotene and citrus aurantium oil. It is a clear greenish gel. I dilute half the amount of a schaet with water and then massage on my face for about 2-3 mintues. It lathers quite well, if you enjoy it. After 3 minutes, rinse it with plain water. Since it’s quite foamy a lot of water is required to completely get rid of the cleanser. The smell of the cleanser is pleasant but little strong and herbal. Feels squeaky clean & bright. Also face looks and feel little taut and firm. Step 2 – Protein Bleach When I first read the label, I was disheartened to see a bleach in the kit. But when I read the ingredients, I exclaimed with joy, it’s not that regular bleach. It mainly contains lactic acid to naturally lighten skin tone. Rich in lactic acid, leaves your skin shades lighter, more velvety and luminous. Ingredients: Dried yogurt, soya protein, hydrolyzed protein, vitamins A,C & E and minerals. This bleach is supposed to be used in conjunction with A.H.A gel, the step no 3. I mix protein bleach and the aha gel together to form a paste and then apply on face for 15 minutes. Later massage it with damp fingers for 2-3 minutes and then take it off. The smell of this bleach is like Aroma Magic enzyme face pack I have used before. It’s not very pleasant but mild. Face looks & feels fresh. I have sensitive skin. Massaging turns it little red. Step 3 – A.H.A. Gel Lightens skin colour, balances uneven skin tone and pH level. Enhances skin brightness and improves complexion. Ingredients: Extracts of Garlic clove, witch hazel, rose, organic fruit acid, vitamin c and pure essential oils of rose and sandalwood. Check out the ingredients. So many herbs and pure essentials oils… maybe that’s why my sensitive skin turns little red upon massaging with the paste of Protein Bleach and AHA Gel. It smells like a lot of things and quite strong. It’s consistency is quite watery. Step 4 – Skin Serum It’s consistency is like clear water. It’s runny, I mostly spill it little bit while taking it out of the sachet since I keep on forgetting that it’s just like water. Ingredients: carrot, tea tree, grape, orange, organic fruit acid and pure essential oils of orange blossom and chamomile. This comes in a small glass tube known as ampoule. But it is very risky to twist open the ampoule I always mess up and once got hurt too. Wish this had been packaged in a sachet too. I apply this on face and neck and leave it for about 3 minutes as directed. I cannot define the proper effect of this step since my skin feels already bright and firm since the step no 1. Step 5 – Oxygenating Gel Helps to oxygenate the skin to keep skin cells flexible and regenerated. Removes waste and toxins and boosts circulation. The natural botanical fight free radicals, helps hyper pigmentation and lightens the skin. Ingredients : Extracts of grapefruit, seaweed, aloe vera, vitamin A & C, pure essentials oils of Patchouli, Lavender and Neroli. The oxygenating gel is supposed to be applied on the skin, and should be penetrated into skin with galvanic machine. Since I use it at home, the galvanic machine is not available, I just massage the serum until it totally gets absorbed. By now, my skin gets red and little irritated by so much gel/serum massages. My skin is sensitive and there are a lot of herbal ingredients and essential oils, maybe that’s why my skin feels raw by now. Step 6 – Face Pack Finally the face pack. This is supposed to be the last step of this facial. Helps to remove free radicals from the skin that causes skin damage and problems of pigmentation, wrinkles, skin ageing and fine lines. Lightens skin tone, tightens loose & sagging skin giving it a glowing and smooth skin Ingredients: Extracts of green tea, lemon, carrot, vitamins A, C & E , pure essentials oil of Grapefruit, orange. It finally soothes my irritated skin due to a lot of massaging. The face pack is quite runny and it takes a lot of time to completely, so only 15 minutes are advised to keep it. I wash it off with plain water and face looks very clean, radiant, bright & matte. I apply my regular Clean n Clear Moisturiser. Step 7 – Sunscreen Provides full sun protection against harmful UVA and UVB sun rays by combining natural sun blocking agents with sunscreens. Non greasy and light, it feels comfortable on your skin. Prevents tanning and helps to lighten the skin. Ingredients: Extracts of cucumber green tea, lemon, aloe vera, octyl methoxycinmate, Benzaphenone, vitamins A,C,E & pure essentials oils of orange blossom and lavender. It is light weight and it’s great to have so many herbal ingredients to protect my skin. Likes Quality Product. Salon like facial at home. Affordable as compared to a facial at a salon. 7 in detail steps to get visibly clear and smooth skin. Tanning goes away with just one use. Skin glows for next few days. All the steps contain herbal ingredients. Suitable for all skin types. My mother and sister have also used this, we all have different skin types. Each sachet gives at least 2 applications. Hence you get 10 applications overall from single kit. No breakouts / skin allergies. Dislikes No scrub is provided with the kit. I feel a facial is incomplete with out a scrub. I use my regular apricot scrub after Step 1. The oxygenating gel needs to be penetrated with a ultra sonic machine, which is is not possible for home users. Too many steps. But I do not mind, since I am getting salon like facial at home. Summary : 4/5 Aroma Magic 7 Step Skin Glow Facial Kit has always helped me getting back my complexion from a bad tanning or dullness. The kit is a multi use facial kit, so turns out to be quite economical. It is suitable for all skin types i.e. dry, normal and oily skin. It is a must have for the current wedding season. Hope you liked the review. Have you tried this facial kit? XOXO

Eye Creams For Dark Circles : What Worked For Me And What Not

Nisha Malik — Sun, 11 Dec 2016 17:52:14 +0000

Dark Circles under and around eyes, can ruin a beautiful face. Dark Circles can be a permanent resident on deep set eyes, like I have. From my experience, I can say, if you have dark circles, they can never totally disappear, but they can be minimised. I have tried many eye creams some expensive, some under budget. I am going to share what worked for my under eye area which has dark circles plus some fine lines also has started showing up. Will also let you know, which ones didn’t work for me. My skin is oily but my under eye area is very dry. So rich in moisture creams can only work for me. If you are looking for natural remedies to treat your dark circles, read this. Aroma Magic Under Eye Gel Aroma Magic is a very trusted brand, and most of the products offered by this brand, are very effective. Aroma Magic under eye gel is a light gel based under eye treatment, which is suitable for dull & tired eyes. It is a gel, hence it gives soothing effect after a long day at work. This is perfect if you have mild dark circles or puffy eyes. Retails at about Rs. 135 for 20 gms. Since my under eye area is quite darkened, this gel could not give much brightening. But yeah, it definitely gave soothing effect to my eyes. Aroma Magic Almond Under Eye Cream If you have major dark circle issues, you need something heavy duty like Aroma Magic Almond Eye Cream. Almond Oil helps in reducing under eye fine lines and dark circles to great extent. But you have to be patient and consistent with the application. This also retails at Rs. 135 for 20 gms. It worked little bit on my under eye area. This could not make much difference though. It moisturised my under eye area. It felt little heavy since it contained almond oil. Jovees 24 Carat Eye Contour Gel I have not personally used it, but have read lots of reviews. Recently my sister started using this since she is also dealing with dark circles and fine lines under her eyes.It’s working for her. A unique formulation containing 24 Carat Gold leaves, precious herbs and botanical along with pure gold. Since it’s a gel, it won’t feel heavy on your eyes. It refreshes eye area. You might layer up your regular moisturiser upon this gel for extra hydration. Retails at Rs. 235. Forest Essentials Eye Cream With Anise My HG eye cream. It’s texture, efficacy & smell, every thing is so wonderful. It gave results in about 2 weeks. It also helped me with fine lines under my eyes. It brightened my under eye area. It lasts very long since you need very little amount for each application. Read the full review here. The only downside of this eye cream is it’s ever raising cost. When I first started using it, it used to come for about 15oo bucks, very costly even at that price. Now, it retails at about 2200 bucks only for a 15ml pot. Way too costly. Oriflame Optimals Seeing Is Believing Eye Cream This is an eye cream which is not as costly as Forest Essentials Eye Cream, but almost as efficient. There is only little difference between Forest Essentials Eye Cream and Oriflame Optimals Eye Cream. Oriflame Eye Cream also take care of the dark circles and fine lines but it takes some time, while Forest essentials show results withing a lesser time period. To maintain the effects, you must use an eye cream. Oriflame’s Eye Cream retails for about 500-600 bucks, but I always buy it from Amazon at discount. Juicy Chemistry Coffee & Green Tea Eye Cream Who does not want fast results? Juicy Chemistry is a herbal brand. But it’s products are exceptionally quick to deliver results. Within 4-5 days my under eye area started looking moisturized and relaxed. Within 10-15 days, it started looking brighter than before. Being affordable & natural is like bonus point. Clinique All About Eyes I have used the tinted version of this cream as well as the non tinted version. This proved to be a good eye cream, just very costly. This is quite rich in consistency and provide good hydration. Gives little brightening effect to eye and also helps with fine lines. But it costs about 2850. Forest essential is cheaper and more effective. Clinique Even Better Eyes Dark Circle Corrector This is actually a concealer plus eye cream. You can take it as a tinted eye cream. I didn’t find much difference in my dark circle while using it. I took it more as a very costly concealer since it costs around 3250 bucks. Himalaya Under Eye Cream I have seen people raving so much about this under eye cream, but my dark circle are quite intense, this cream could not do much about them. It retails for about 165 bucks, get from Amazon.in at discount. Biotique Bio Almond Soothing & Nourishing Under Eye Cream This is quite a thick cream, I found it too thick for an eye cream. I really had to rub it vigorously to try to make it fully absorbed into the skin which it never did. It just sat under my eyes. It was helpful with the dark circles, but I just didn’t like it for it’s texture. Also it took time to show up some results. It costs about Rs. 199 but available at discount on Amazon.in. Oriflame Royal Velvet Firming Eye Contour Cream It is not actually meant for dark circles, but it is rather a firming cream. It of course didn’t do much for my dark circles, but yeah worked little bit on the fine lines under my eyes. I didn’t repurchase it, because, I stumbled upon Forest Essentials Eye Cream by the time I finished this eye cream from Oriflame. Iraa InstaRenew Multi Action Under Eye Cream This is a light weight, fast absorbing & non greasy eye cream. It works to improve under eye texture and gives a smooth look. But do not expect much improvement in the improvement of dark circles. L’Oreal Paris Youth Code Eye Cream This is the worst eye cream I ever used. I am sorry L’Oreal, but I actually had an allergic reaction from this eye cream in first few usages. I bought the Youth Code Serum & Eye Cream few months back, but both proved to be a disaster. The face serum gave me rashes while the eye cream irritated my under eye area. End Of Story. I shared my experience with some eye creams so that it could help some one. Look out for a rich in moisture eye cream if you are 25+, lack of moisture can introduce & intensify the eye area darkness & fine lines. You can go for gel based under eye treatments just for relaxation. I will also share how I conceal my under eye area. Stay tuned. XOXO. Image Source : Google.

Another Saturday Rambling – Another Haul

Nisha Malik — Sun, 06 Nov 2016 03:02:47 +0000

Before I got married, my Saturdays were dedicated to shopping with my sister. It does not happen much now, as we live in different cities. Since we are together this weekend, we decided to make the Saturday remember-able and have a walk down the memory lane which resulted into a small haul. I have tried the Almond version of Garnier Ultra Blends Range, and it suited my hair really well. Since I am a fan of lavender smell, I got it. Hope this variant( Royal Jelly & Lavender ) will also suit my hair. Joveen Musk is a brilliant fragrance, and I use it now and then. Was quite hesitant about the Streax Hair Serum but the SA insisted a lot. NELF is a relatively new brand to Indian market, but is a decent and affordable USA brand. I got a lip gloss and silver gel liner from NELF. I don’t know why, but Incolor has impressed me quit a lot these days. I have used eyeliners from Incolor as well as lip colors. Today I got 2 in 1 lip creams from Incolor which are similar to NYX Lip Creams. Also picked a quite orange-y lip gloss. I am a fan of Elle 18 nail pops, got few more shades. Aroms Magic Anti Pigmentation mask, is a my HG mask. It was getting over hence, got it. Also got Dabur Gulabari, it’s quite refreshing when used with face masks. After shopping, we sat down for coffee to rest our feet, we agreed, how much we missed it. This time together, no matter how old we get, we can never forget the connection that we have between us. I got this little box just because it was way to cute to miss. I have something for boxes. I love them. Someday, I will show my collection. Is there anything you liked in my small haul? Leave your comments below. Love. Stay High, Stay Fab.

Aroma Magic Anti Pigmentation Glossy Pack : Review

Nisha Malik — Sat, 29 Oct 2016 10:06:31 +0000

Hello pretty ladies. How’s your day going on? Today, I am going to write about a product from an old and trusted brand, aka Aroma Magic. I really trust this brand with its authentic products, generally all herbal and it merely ever gave any dud. Out of the other products that I used from this brand, I am going to write about Aroma Magic Anti Pigmentation Glossy Pack, also known as ‘Glossy Pack‘. I know so many of you already know and been using this pack, but it’s always good to spread the word about an amazing find. Blossom Kochhar Aroma Magic Anti Pigmentation Glossy Pack This is an anti pigmentation pack meant for all skin types and ages. Let’s get into more details right away. Highlights of the Glossy Pack: 100% free of parabens, harsh chemicals, alcohol, artificial fragrances and color. Claims to lighten the complexion, hyper pigmentation, dark circles, age spots and skin discoloration. The mask claims to have antiseptic and anti inflammatory properties Price: It got costlier with time and now it sells at Rs. 395 for 100 grams and Rs. 750 for 200 grams. Available on discount here Packaging It used to come in a white tub which was signature packaging of Aroma Magic. Since tubs are not preferable for skin care products, the brand heard its customers’ voice and changed the packaging to tube. The Glossy Pack comes in a forest green colored tube with a white cap. The quality of the tube is good. It’s convenient and but little bulky. Get smaller tube if you want to take it on a vacation. Texture, Color & Smell: The color of the product is dark green. It smells quite herbal but not pungent. The texture of the pack is creamy and smooth. It spreads over the face effortlessly. I apply it for 15-30 minutes depending upon the time I have in hand. Later wash it off with plain water and apply moisturizer afterwards though don’t feel like I need to. Ingredients The Glossy Pack from Aroma Magic is loaded with the goodness of amazing herbs such as clove, nutmeg, manjistha, blackberry, pennywort etc. It has got a blend of essential oils such as lemongrass, jojoba, ginger etc. Also it contains beeswax, glycerine and neroli oil. The ingredients list is quite impressive I would say. My Experience with Aroma Magic Anti Pigmentation Glossy Pack I simply love face pack. It’s among my HG face packs , like Plum Green Tea Clear Face Mask. It is a life saver. It never betrayed me. I first met this green mask about 5-6 years ago when I was going through a bad skin phase and had to attend a wedding. I bought this face pack just to try my luck. Oh boy! I never felt so lucky. It actually relived my skin’s redness and scarring to such extent, that makeup went flawlessly on my skin and I got complements. But then I never used it for another few months. I kept on going on my non ending face pack hunts. After making so many bad choices and little shaken faith in high end brands I tried it again and I realized its the best. Since then its been staying in my kitty so that whenever my skin needs rescue, I use this soldier. I have recommended Aroma Magic Anti Pigmentation Glossy Pack to my relatives and friends also. And everybody loves it. So it goes on all skin types. My skin is acne prone, but it never broke out due to this pack, actually this pack takes away the anger of the existing zits. Aroma Magic Anti Pigmentation Glossy Pack also claims to help with the dark circles. So I apply it under my eyes also. Though one shall never apply a face mask under eyes, but as its consistency is kind of creamy and I never really let it dry completely, so no harm. Frankly, I don’t see much difference in the under eye area after wearing this mask. Maybe because I have chronicle dark circles because I am an insomniac. Likes: It is free of parabenes, alcohols, artificial fragrances & color. It is completely herbal. Contains goodness of clove, manjistha, blackberry,nutmeg, pennywort. Suitable for all skin types. Gives instant fresh look and glow. Lightens any kind of pigmentation with regular use. Good for acne prone skin since it contains clove and nutmeg. Spreads on skin effortlessly. Easy to wash off too. Since it is not a regular clay mask, it does not dry completely and hence my skin never feels tight/dry after taking it off. Convenient and attractive packaging. Dislikes: Though some may say its price is little high but I think the performance of the product justifies the price. Some might not like it’s poop like color. I also wish it worked for my dark circles but I can ignore this fact as long as it’s working for my can-easily-get-scarred skin. Rating: 4.5/5 Final Verdict: Go grab it if you haven’t yet. This face pack is true to its name, it makes your skin glossy. Catch your bit. Stay Hugh, Stay Fab. – Nisha Malik ♥
