Kerastese Resistance Fibre Achitecte Serum Review

Hello everyone,

Last month I indulged myself and went for a Kerastese hair spa. Needless to say, I also ended up buying some products. One of this was FIBRE ARCHITECTE by Kerastese. I had never bought any Kerastese products before so I was pretty excited to use it. Read more here

Lush Jasmine And Henna Fluff-Eaze Hair Conditioner Review

Hi all,

I love Lush Products and this is the only hair conditioner I have tried from Lush. I had read some amazing reviews of Lush H SUAN WEN HUA Hair Moisturiser and decided to get myself one but on the SA’s recommendation I got Jasmine & Henna Fluff Eaze conditioner as my hair is too frizzy and Kolkata’s heat makes it even worse. Needless to say it suits me perfectly.

MUA Professional-Heaven & Earth Eyeshadow Palette

Hello Friends..

Today I am reviewing Heaven & Earth Professional Eyeshadow Palette by Makeup Academy. Have you ever bought a makeup product at a very cheap price and could not believe that the quality can be so great?? Hardly many products deliver results at a very low price but this eyeshadow palette is a total exception.

I had heard very great things about the quality of makeup academy products and I treated myself by purchasing some products(by some read 19!!) online. The package arrived yesterday and everything was so carefully packed and looked amazingg. I got 3 eyeshadow palettes, load of eyelines, blush, lipstick and lipbalm.

Heaven & Earth is a neutral eyeshadow palette and is ideally suitable for Indian skin tone.

The texture is creamy, smooth and easy to work with and the pay off of the colors are too good. It has total of 12 shades. All the shades are shimmery but the shimmer is not loud or anything. As you can see, there are lovely highlight shades, lid colors and also darker crease colors. I like a palette that is complete and these 12 shades are apt for a smoky eye look. It also comes with a brush which I have not used.

Getting back to the review, this is how the palette looks like

A closer look

                                      

Swatches- these are just single swipes

Cost of 12 great eyeshadows- £4/ Rs 350 (how do they sell it so cheap!!!)

The only con of the product that I can think is that it is not available in India. But the shipping charges are not too high and if you are ordering loads of products like I did then it actually looks minimal.

I would have definitely stocked on this palette but as I have already ordered Urban Decay Naked, I dont think I will be using it much.

ULTA-Hydroshine Lip Gel

Hello friends
I started my blog today and this is my first ever review of any product.
The product that I am reviewing today is Hydro Shine Lip Gel from ULTA. I somehow feel that a girl can never have many lip products. And for me I am a lip balm and gloss junky. Whenever I am shopping online, the first thing that I check out are the lip balm. I have many that will last me more than a lifetime but then also I keep on buying and buying..well this lip gel..I did not buy. My sister lives in Chicago and she got it for me(aint that sweet of her)

Product Details(from the site):

Polish your pout and give lips conditioning care with HydroShine Lip Gel by ULTA. Naturally nutritious gel formula glides effortlessly along lips to provide moisture and shine with a hint of color. Rich in Jojoba Oil, Apricot Kernel Seed Oil and Vitamin C to replenish and soften lips.

Ingredients (from the site):

Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Hydrogenated Styrene/Isoprene Copolymer, Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Panicum Miliaceum (Millet) Seed Oil, Flavor (Aroma), Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, Sodium Saccharin, Red 7 Lake (CI15850), Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Red 33 Lake (CI 17200), Yellow 5 Lake (CI 19140), Blue 1(CI 42090), Red 28 Lake (CI45410),

8.      Guava

9.      Passion Fruit

10.  Grapefruit.

The one I have is in strawberry.

The lip gel has a red tint and is glossy. It smells of strawberry(personally I don’t like lip glosses with smells). It is not sticky and and it moistrurises the lips. It lasted for 2 hours. I have been reaching out for this everyday and i like it though I am not loving it very much. I feel that the lasting power could have been more. 

 and heres how it looks on me with just one swipe.

Pros:

Has a red tint.

Glossy Finish

Moisturises the lips

Does not feel sticky.

Cute Packaging

Application is easy

Great color selection

Contains Jojoba oil

Cons:

Not available in India

Does not last long

Don’t like the smell.

I give it 3.5/5

Comments are appreciated whether good or bad.

Thanks

Fashion is who YOU are....

Hello friends
In the past few months I have started reading and following many blogs..many on makeup and beauty..some on fashion and I can say that I have also been bitten by the BLOGGING bug.
I remember when Big B (Amitabh Bacchan) started blogging my first reaction was how does he have so much time in his busy life to post every day(almost everyday when he started). But now when I have started my own blog..lemme see how much time I can give to it.
2 days ago I was watching a tv series, Jane by Design(its nothing great but I had nothing better to do) and I heard a saying that I liked very much and that is, yeah you guessed right 'Fashion is who YOU are...' Now-a-days people like to make their own fashion statement rather than following someone blindly. I realised that I have never followed any trend blindly. It is very important for me to be comfortable with what I am wearing.
Through this blog I just want to let my creative juices flow and this blog will be about fashion, beauty, lifestyle and any topic which I believe in.
Ciao
