L'OREAL PARIS TRUE MATCH CONCEALER REVIEW I am conscious about my dark circles. There....I said it! I have tried every eye cream in the market - from drugstore to high end, even applied eye masks, did home remedies and still NO CHANGE! Seems like there is no breaking up with dark circles. The only way to hide them is by concealing. Therefore, I do extra homework before buying concealers. Today, I emptied the L'oreal Paris True Match Concealer. I am in the shade light/medium neutral - n 4-5. Lets talk Packaging It comes in a tube with a brush applicator. Super compact, leak proof. Product Description by L'oreal Paris True match Super-Blendable concealer precisely matches your skin's tone and texture. Hides blemishes and imperfections and evens skin tone. Product Yay or Nay The consistency of the product is excellent. It is neither too light nor too heavy. It blends beautifully in the skin and doesn't seem cakey, even if you don...

KIKO MILANO CC CREAM CUSHION COMPACT SYSTEM REVIEW Let's just say that I am lazy at getting ready...specially during winter season! When it comes to makeup, I prefer using the products that are quick to apply and work efficiently throughout the day (as well as night). Talking about Cushion Foundations, this technique originated in Korea (not surprising at all) and has been adopted all over the world by makeup gurus. I have just emptied the Kikomilano CC Cream Cushion - it is the first in my collection of Cushion Foundations! Read on for the full review! Lets talk about the packaging It comes with a ravishing silver packaging, a clean big mirror and a sponge. The lid helps to lock the product and doesn't leak or dry out. Overall the packaging is to die for! Product Description by KikoMilano Colour perfecting foundation with SPF 25 for a radiant complexion and even looking skin. The light liquid foundation is quickly absorbed and blends with the skin ...

Kiehl's Nightly Refining Micro-Peel Concentrate When it comes to peels,  I am very particular about what I use on my face. The products have to be gentle and still powerful enough to get the work done. When I saw this new product from Kiehl's, I was curious. Unfortunately, they had run out of samples... So, I had to rely on the reviews available online and word of mouth. After much research and consideration, I gave in and bought this bottle worth INR 4700.  The salespeople at Kiehl's are very well informed and educated of the products they are selling...I just love the way they handle the clients. As a sales person myself, I understand the importance of KYC - Know Your Customer. You pick any segment - be it hotels or beauty or fashion or health or insurance...you have to Know who your customer is, and what they need. So after the initial qualification, I was sure I need this weapon to protect my skin. What is Kiehl's Nightly Refining Micro-Peel Concen...

Let me start with telling you how sorry I am for missing out on blogs in the past one month!!! I was really tied up and had absolutely no time for anything...let alone blogging! :(  So I will make up for the lost time and (try to) write as many blogs as I can in this week. This blog is about the awesome stuff I carry in my bag, every weekday! It has my Weekday essentials that I just can't do without. I am a huge Sunscreen fan - For me, it is more of a necessity rather than a luxury. After I have cleansed, toned and moisturised my skin, I apply a heavy dose of Sunscreen. Currently my favourite is this Lotus Herbals Safe Sun Sunscreen in SPF 40 . It is a 3-in-1 Matte Look Daily Sunblock. The best thing is that it is a Tinted Sunscreen with sheer coverage. I apply two layers of this sunscreen for protection as well as coverage. So after using it , all I really need is a Concealer for my dark circles.  My rating - 4 / 5 - Minus 1 for coverage. I wish it had more ...

I have been wanting to write this blog since last week...specially over the weekend. Well that was the plan! Another plan was hosting a party at home on Saturday...(that too on a working Saturday). Well...the party was super fun! We had my friends, my husband's friends and our common friends...;) (that's an inside joke..haha). Sunday was lazy lazy...Then came Monday...For me, Mondays are always BLAH! But this time, I tried to make the most out of it...I had some ME time...so I watched a movie...did my nails...cooked dinner (that does not qualify as part of my ME time stuff but still..)...and I slept well. Anyways, by now we have established the fact that I am lazy and I love my ME Time. Now lets get back to the serious stuff. This blog is about the empties challenge!  Last to last month, I challenged myself to first finish off the products I have and then buy new ones! So I have touched rock bottom on these 5 products and thought of sharing my reviews with you guy...

The past couple of days have been somewhat stressful and hectic for me...I have been trying to think positive and act all happy and hopeful! One of my tried and tested stress-buster is shopping...even window shopping at times! The other day, I went to the mall for lunch, I came across Innisfree.  I knew it is a Korean Skincare - Makeup brand. The thing that caught my attention was the Mask Sheets....priced between INR 100 - INR 300. After spending almost 10-15 minutes going through the diverse product range, I thought of reading some online reviews before buying anything (P.S. I am trying to not be an impulsive buyer). So, I read and read! Turns out, it is the thing I have been running after. You know by now that I love investing in skincare products and the world goes gaga over Korean Skincare for some really valid reasons. The reviews for this AFFORDABLE Korean Skincare Brand were amazing specially for the Mask Sheets and the Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask.  ...
