Expert Tip

Apply your lipstick by starting in the center of your upper lip. Work from the center to the outer edges of your lip, following the contours of your mouth. Repeat the technique on your lower lip.

In case any of you darlings don't know what a pink tourmaline is or what it looks like. here is a pic for you.

http://www.gemselect.com/other-info/graphics/hot-pink-tourmaline-large.jpg

Tourmaline is a crystal boron silicate mineral compounded with elements such asaluminium, iron, magnesium, sodium, lithium, or potassium.The pink color of tourmalines from many fields is the result of a continued natural irradiation. During their growth, these tourmalines incorporate Mn²⁺, whereas initially they are by nature very pale. Tourmaline is classified as a semi-precious stone and the gemstone comes in a wide variety of colors.
(source:wikipedia).

Packaging:-

standard maybelline colorsensational packaging with a twist. the twist being the shiny , hologram like effect on the pink plastic top. its fun to look at and i like such things. if not doing anything else, i am often caught staring oddly at the packaging of this lipstick.the tube inside is metal and has a nice hefty, expensive feel to it.luckily the lipstick swivels down completely and doesn't get caught along the way in the cap. plus points for that. i know how many lipsticks i have ruined in a hurry just because they didn't close well.

the name and other information is written on the bottom of the tube in big , bold letters. you sure wont need glasses to read it out.the tube is pretty pink as well . easy to identify this one from the sea of lippies . no shame in that . i admit it . i am a lipstick hoor. 

the ultimate detail is maybelline new york etched on the the metal tube. one sad part s being metallic , it holds fingerprints bad. need to wipe it down after every use.

The Shade:-

it is a very pretty blue based almost fuchsia pink . what makes it different from other pinks in the market is the shimmer in it. i will lay it down straight. this is a frost finish lipstick. if you do not like frost , this one is not for you . it is cool toned no denying that. it definitely has a white base and may have to tendency to pull off chalky on very warm skin tones.. to know what a white base is , click here.

Now what distinguishes it from other frosty pink lip products mentioned in the dupes list below , is definitely the shimmer . it isn't just silvery white shimmer. but a mix of pink and red shimmer as well. the variations in the shimmer are easily visible if you rub it off. the subtle pinky red shimmer gives it a bit depth rather than making it seem like a party pink.the best part is the shimmer doesn't migrate . i have lipsticks and glosses whose shimmer has ended down my decolletage area by the end of the day. it stays put and doesn't feel gritty as it wears on. being frosty however it settles into fine lines. so exfoliate properly before applying.

the shimmer also creates a beautiful play on colours. in different lightings the shade appears different. in natural light is more pink toned whereas in artificial yellow lighting its more of a red.  also due to the frost shiny finish , it makes the lips appear more fuller and poutier. now who doesn't want that?

The Wear:-

as is true with whole of the color sensational range, it is immensely creamy and smooth. 1 swipe delivers almost opaque colour with ease. the wear time is decent around 4-5hrs with eating and drinking. it lingers as a stain upto the 8 hr mark after which it looks plain grubby. being a bright shade the shimmer isn't the only thing left behind , some colour persists too.it is adequately moisturizing. i don't not need to wear a lip balm underneath nor do i need to rush to apply it after taking the lipstick off.

but what it majorly needs s a lipliner underneath . being a bright colour and given as creamy as it is, it has tendency to feather outside the lipline, bleed and smoosh off completely due to transfer.

yes it transfers like crazy on any and everything your lips touch.

my choice of lip liner is from the range itself-maybelline new york color sensational lip liner in STELLAR PINK. 

tip of the day:- to add to your regular matte red lipstick . apply the rad lipstick to the outer corners of your lips leaving the center bare. place a frosty pink shade in the center for a unique duo toned ombre lip effect!

The Dupe list:-

 

while testing  out dupes i was scanning majorly for blue based frosty pinks. and a truth of my life dawned on me . actually two truths. i own very less lipsticks and more so very less lipsticks. so much so that i had to snag one from my mum's vanity :(

onto the dupes:-

1. maybelline colorsensational jewels- pink tourmaline
2. maybelline color sensational lip liner -stellar pink.
3. avon simply pretty lipstick- amethyst ( a very old tube . belongs to the mum. from the original simply pretty lineup)
4. nyx round lipstick- georgia
5. nyx megashine lipgloss- french kiss
6. gala of london ultra cream lipstick- 24 pink partner

from the images you can see that stellar pink is the perfect match in natural lighting but appears to lean a bit mauve-y in artificial lighting. amethyst is just purple and cannot be compared. i thought it could be dupe looking at the tube. sad. georgia is much lighter , frostier and more pink based. french kiss and pink partner may not look like dupes at all . but they are the perfect dupe in shade when layered. though the effect is much more glossier pink partner layered on top on french kiss matches the tone , frostiness  but doesn't have the same depth due to difference in shimmer.

how it looks on my lips:-

Final Word:-

DO I LIKE IT:-  yes i do . but not my kinda shade that i will wear often or in the day time. 

WILL I REPURCHASE IT:- nope. maybe rubylicious  or refined wine. i have not much love for either frost finish or frosty pinks except when they are eyeshadows.

WILL I RECOMMEND IT:- yes to all those pink lovers out there . and those who are looking for a bright out there party , night time pink.
RATING:- 4/5

(deducted for transferring and settling into fine lines)

AVON onyx luster tri-eyeshadow in midnight luster

i can see the season coming,

of all things shiny and sparkly!

i can see the season coming,

of all things bright and merry !

i can see the season coming,

of the beautiful DIWALI!

OK OK OK  no one looks cross-eyed at me . not my fault . i just love this festival so much that i could post even a video of me doing an impromptu jig(which would scare away the very few readers i have ) . the poetry itself is pathetic , i realise that . kiddie poetry not my thing . adult poetry totally my thing. so the video would have been overkill .

i digress ( so predictable of me ). Diwali means parties , meeting people and all the showsha we Indians are well known for .it also means dressing up . dressing up bright , bold and blingy (oooo i just alliterated ... hehe grammar freak ). not everyone likes blingy so for those who dont let me present to u a product that's shimmery enough but still classy for elegant and charismatic eyes for the festival season .

AVON onyx luster tri-eyeshadow in midnight luster

price:-  399/- inr but since i purchased it a while back it set me back by 299/- that is almost 100/- inr for each shadow.
net weight:- 2.8 g or 0.10oz
expiry date:- 30 months from manufacturing date .

WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY 'BOUT IT:-

Black goes luminous with a pearly glow. Shine the light on your dark side. Silky smooth powder. Stay-true color. Mirror compact with built-in drawer for applicator.

PACKAGING:-

it comes in a sleek black rectangular black box with a shiny finish. it has two compartments- the one you see on opening holds the 3 shadows closely packed together without any individual pans.the lower compartment is almost hidden and slides out . it holds two sponge tipped applicators but i have lost one of them . the lid also has a clear , good but small mirror  the lid closes with a snap and overall the packaging is sturdy. the box does have a tendency to hold fingerprints and gets scratches easily if you are too clumsy ( like me ;-p) as you can see from the pictures.the applicators are good for applying shadows to the inner corners and on the lower lashline.

natural lighting

MY FEW PENNIES:-

the trio consists of a nude peach shade with a golden sheen to it , a basic black with some teeny tiny glitter particles and an almost matte brown.none of the shades have any names or descriptions even on the site so please bear with me as i try ( struggle) to explain the shades.

with flash

1. the first shade is a beautiful peachy shimmery nude shade . i can see this shade working on a wide range of complexions and different undertones without looking orange-y.its a perfect all over the lid shade.it goes on a bit sheer but can be built upto desired intensity without going patchy and streaky. its one of those shades that you just put on your lids , throw some eyeliner and mascara on and you are done ! TA-DAH . as easy as that . no more squirmy people egging you to get ready soon. it also is the perfect base shade for my medium dark skin tone to put other eyeshadows over without them getting too muddy.it works perfect as a shimmery browbone and inner corner highlight for darker , warmer skin tones. with a sparing hand/applicator/brush even lighter skin toned people can make it work . i am all for shimmery highlighters during this season.
2. the second shade is a matte black with some Lil silver glitter . the glitter doesn't get picked up by the brush hence doesn't even get translated onto the eyes. so no love lost there. this black means business . its intensely black no grey or brown undertones here. its very pigmented hence can be easily overdone. a light hand is highly recommended. perfect shade to smoke out a look or a as a base or darker eyeshadows for an dark , vampy look. i often use it as a upper lash line liner for a soft , smudged yet elegant effect. since the glitters dont translate onto the eye, i safely use it at my lower waterline to set my kohl there.TIP OF THE DAY:-often with whatever is left on my brush after applying BLACK to the lid , i brush it lightly through my brows ( lightly being the key word here ). it slightly defines my brows without me having to reach for a brow product.
3. the third shade is a matte chocolate brown with a sheen to it . let just say that this shade is a let down and leave it to that. its dry, stiff, doesn't get picked up brushes, fingers or applicators. when it does you literally have to jab at the pan to get some of the product to loosen up . still it stays stuck there like a petulant child while you leave it there and go find another shade to put through your crease, brows or for contouring.after a million efforts you manage to put it on your eyes and get it show up , it doesn't just want to blend. it either vanishes into thin thin air or just turns muddy, making your overall look go awry .as you can see in the swatches this one is a bad penny. and bad pennies have a way of turning up even though no one wants them.this is like wasting 100 inr of your hard earned, stolen, borrowed etc ( hehehe..) money on a really pathetic product and this affects the rating of the overall trio adversely.

single swipe swatches in order of the trio

STAYING POWER:-

the overall staying power of the palette is decent if you ignore the brown ( which is like 1/3rd of the palette). it stays on for 3 to 4 hours before starting to crease slightly on my semi oily lids.if a proper base like a primer or a concealer set with powder is used , it lasts good for around five hours before fading around the edges.
IN ACTION:-
see the pics below to see the trio in action .
apart from the trio i have used l'oreal gel eyeliner in black on upper lashline and lower waterline and faces lengthening mascara.
the peach nude shade is from the upper lash line to the browbone and in the inner corner. the chocolate brown (with difficulty....i doubt you can see it) through the crease. black in the outer corner , blended well and outer 2/3rds of the lower lashline.

with blurred focus and flash to show the shimmery nature of the eyeshadows

i haven't used  a base for the eotd so you can see the true intensity of the shadows.

notice the inner corner highlight? pretty... eh?
no flash - yellow bathroom lighting

DO I LIKE IT:- yes . i do . smooth , blendable easy to work shades for work as well as night out wear.

WILL I REPURCHASE IT:- HELL NO. i cant see 100 inr go down the gutter for a bad eyeshadow . despite the trio having two beautiful easy to work shades i wont buy this trio again. i have enough neutrals to last me a lifetime (....no no maybe a year or so.... i ' m so damn sure that i will buy something before this year ends :-D).

WILL I RECOMMEND IT:- yes to beginners who are feeling their way into the world of makeup. and also to those who love quick,easy , neutral looks.

RATING:- 3/5 . ( 1 deducted for the bum shade and the other for being available only through avon representatives and for being slightly overpriced for its quality).


what are your favorite nude, neutral eyeshadows to wear? have your tried this trio or any other eyeshadows by avon?do you like neutrals? let me know what blush and lip colour will you pair with an eyeshadow like this in comments below.

until next time....stay tuned more to come.

love,
vj

vlcc gold scrub review and swatches

hello girls,

come monsoons and my skin starts acting like a petulant child. in winters , its excellent . in summers, a teeny tiny bit okay. arghhhhh the horror of rains. the humidity , the stickiness and the unpredictable atmosphere leads to my face looking like a oil slick and you know the rest of the tale how oily skin can lead to all sorts of skin problems etc etc . so popping a new pimple or blackhead every week and having a skin as dull as a barren desert is a common occurrence for me.

this year however, the cycle changed. thanks to the below product.

VLCC GOLD SCRUB

price:- 135 inr but i got it for 110/- at a local shop at a discount.

net wt:-  70g / 2.46oz

best before 36 months from manufacture

so it comes to 0.51 g per 1 re which is good IMHO.

PACKAGING:-

a very basic plastic tube with a flip cap, nothing very exciting.its got gold and yellow accents allover ,not my favourite colours.but its transparent in some places so you can tell how much product you have left and when do you need a new tube, which i like. despite it being a scrub, it doesn't get clogged around the hole and squeezes out nicely, even after months of use.

WHAT VLCC SAYS ABOUT THIS :-

exposure to environmental factors like pollution and dust make skin look dull and lifeless.this unique scrub,enriched with 24 carat pure gold, turmeric, and sandalwood , has a deep pore cleansing action that gently exfoliates dead skin cells, superficial white and black heads . it leaves skin fresh and glowing with a radiant complexion.

INGREDIENTS:-

extracts of aloe vera, sandalwood , raisin, turmeric, gold leaf , xanthan gum , dimethicone, triclosan and vitamin E.

DIRECTIONS:-

take an appropriate amount of scrub and apply all over face and neck with wet fingertips. scrub for a few minutes with circular and outward strokes to exfoliate impurities. rinse thoroughly.

MY FEW PENNIES :-

after finishing off my trusty olivia facial scrub ( yes its good and no olivia doesn't just make bleaches), i was scouring high and low for a new decent scrub ( read: inexpensive). i decided to try out a local cosmetics and novelty store ( tehhheeeehee...... yes i do live in a city with such shops and big, pushy aunties for s.a's ). she recommended that this will make me glow like 24 k gold. since it was light on the wallet what-the-heck right?

Let me clear this , it is a mild scrub , a very very very mild one. even my avon tea tree facewash is more grainier.as you can see from the swatches , the particles are few and very far in between. also it has golden, shimmery specks and larger Styrofoam-ish gold painted pieces. it is a pale yellow coloured semi liquid product. not too runny that is flows away and not too thick that it will clog the tube ( everyuth face scrubs do that ) . it does have a very strong ,artificial fragrance that lingers sometime after washing. it stings eyes painfully in case it gets into the eye :(

now the great part. its perfect for my dry cheeks, oily t-zone combo skin. i have many breakouts from being on medication for the past several months. this doesn't harm , burst or increase them . i do not have significant blackheads, hence cant comment on that . nut yes, it works to clear my whiteheads decently.it doesn't leave my skin dry and stretchy even though it does foam up. people blessed with normal or oily skins can use this pretty much everyday . but i try not to do that, OVER EXFOLIATION CAN MAKE YOUR SKIN SENSITIVE!!!

finally , THE BEST PART  *drumrolll*. it makes my skin GLOW . if you follow my blog , you might know how much i am obsessed with GLOW. and you will be pleased to know unlike a fake 2 hr glow, this kind of radiance actually lasts. i am almost tempted to try other products from the gold range for this very reason . 

tip of the day :- if for an event in order to ensure the best makeup application scrub your skin prior to applying makeup and rub an icecube over the face. the makeup goes on smoothly and stays fresh for a long time :)

do i like it :- YES . 

will i repurchase:- NO. i am still searching for and H.G face scrub . so please do recommend in the comments below !

will i recommend it :- YES. to people with sensitive skins or acne prone. and also ones on the lookout for inexpensive scrub for daily use. particularly for tired and dull skin .

rating3.5/5 . deducted for incomplete ingredient list and presence of silicones :( and lack of real gold  (w.t.h am i expecting in 110 bucks .... heheheh )

note:- the above reviewed product works for me may not mean it may work for you as well. caution should be maintained before and while using the product. discretion advised .

d.i.y - body mist for body acne

i begin again with a confession . i suffer from acne not just face but even on my body . my whole back and some part of my chest and upper arms near my shoulder . its very embarrassing just to tell you guys . you can imagine my horror if living day in and day out through it. i cant wear any clothes of my choice lest people see those horrible scars and make fun of me :(  i also avoid social gatherings as much as i can to prevent being noticed . my face is in a much better position than my body though .
if you need more inspiration on living through acne please check out cassandra bankson aka diamondsandheels14's channel on youtube. she is my living inspiration on battling and surviving acne. i have tried many remedies so far to make my acne vanish but not with fulfilling results . its easier to work on your face since its accessible and hence that explains the better condition of my face but my back ? omg  that's my bugbear. since i cant reach it , i cant heal it .
so i being the wisecrack i m i came up with this spray format idea. the measurements etc were taken from site on the interwebz and modified according my requirements .

requirements:-

• distilled water
• green tea leaves
• rose water
• tea tree oil
• fresh tulsi leaves
• spray bottle to hold the mist ( any old bottle will do . just make sure to clean it with warm water and disinfectant soap and let dry for min. 24 hrs)

that's it . all of 6 things needed to make my anti acne life saviour

procedure:-

1. take some 7 to 8 fresh tulsi leaves and tear them up very finely. most preferably the smaller ones.

collect the leaves at the last moment and prevent them from getting black.

2.boil the distilled water till continuous bubble arise about 50 ml . add this steaming water to the tulsi leaves.

3.now add green tea leaves 2 tbsp. you can use powder also . but since i had the leaves on hand i just crushed them roughly and added to the hot tulsi water.

4.cover the solution and leave it overnight, occasionally checking the progress . this will help all the essential oils from the tulsi and the green tea to mix with the water

5.this is how it looks after 5 hrs.

6.this is how it looks the next morning. add 5 to 6 drops tea tree oil(aroma shop tea tree oil) at  this stage and add rosewater ( dabur gulabari) 20 ml to make up the required volume.

7.filter this solution through a clean muslin cloth and fill it in the spray bottle prepared. i used my old basiltone bottle. and your mist is ready to use.

results:-

i have used this for over two months now . hence, i  am i a good position to comment on its efficiency.

it has managed to clear my acne to a certain extent. due to the spray format i can easily reach those previously inaccessible areas and treat them too. it has managed to prevent outbreak of new breakouts while healing the existing ones . if i muster enough guts some day i might post a pic. but i don't see that happening in the near future.

notes:-

• preferably do not use metallic instruments in preparing the mist. it may react with the formulation , altering it and reducing its efficiency.
• use ceramic, plastic or such instruments as shown in the pictures above.
• refrigerate the bottle and it will last upto 3 mths.
• shake well before use to emulsify the essential oil and water based components.

CAUTION:-

before using any skin care product be sure to consult your dermatologist or your gp . user's discretion advised .since the product  worked on some one's skin it may not mean that it might work on other skins too.



do try it out. let me know if you also suffer from acne and what do you do for it in the comments below.

Aroma Magic Glow face pack review

hello guys ,
i am back with  review !
this time its the Glow face pack from aroma magic by Blossom Kochhar.
come summers dont we all beauties need a bit G_L_O_W (said the way Kareena Kapoor says it ins the boroplus sunscreen ad GLOW...hehhe) . Aroma Magic has been making quite a few waves here in the blogosphere.
you must have seen it in my haul post here.
as i mentioned there , i had bought this for my mum and me . however , sadly i could not use it as my skin is going througha very sensitive , acne prone and allergic phase due to the summers . so this review is going to be from my mum's perspective.
so lets get on with it ................
COST:- RS. 215 /-
NET WT:- 35g
ie 6.14 rs per g 
use before 2 yrs from manufacturing.

 

what does the company claim:-

An instant face lifting and firming treatment that helps sagging and ageing skin.Regular use gives the skin lasting firmness and resilience.Also removes lines,wrinkles,blemishes and improves skin colour and texture . leaves your face looking years younger

directions for use :-

mix a tsp of pack with aroma magic fairy lotion or with aroma magic skin toner( upcoming review) to make a paste. apply evenly on face and neck and around the eyes ( oh really........ i guess i was told not to put any face pack near my eye contour). allow it to dry and rinse after 20 mins ! 

 

Active Ingredients:-

 Natural herbs ( which ones..o_0), Aloe Vera, Manjistha,Bach,Manjuphal,Orange peel and Mineral clays ( again the same question.... which ones o_0)

my thoughts(also my mum's):-

let me admit, i bought this on a whim . i thought it might work for my skin as well . sadly, my 19 yr old oily, allergic skin doesn't like it and care for it much .however, my 47yr old mother experienced dramatically different results.

it comes in a usual white and red aroma magic tub and comes in the form of a brown powder ,as you can see above, packed in individual packets . you get 7 such packets .it doesn't have any noticeable fragrance except a particularly herby one unless you stick your nose in it .

how i use it:-

i mixed approx 1 tsp i.e half a single packet with  a table spoon of curd(home made ) . lactic acid in the curd help in removal of dead skin cell, cell renewal and prevent microbial activity by altering the ph on the skin ( source : me ..... it pays studying biology you know :D).

its quite an airy powder ( if you get what i m saying ...... please say yes ). so the quantity is enogh for whole  face and neck. it forms a paste as shown below .

i put it on my mum's face and left it on till it got semi dry and washed it with warm water ( she did the washing part).

TIP:- FOR ANYONE WITH A DRY SKIN OR AGEING SKIN OR GENERALLY THIN SKIN , ALWAYS APPLY AVERY THIN LAYER OF ANY MASK AND WASH IT AFTER ITS SEMI DRY INSTEAD OF IT GETTING COMPLETELY DRY . THIS PREVENTS OVER DRYING OF FACE AND ALSO PREVENTS ANY ALLERGIC REACTION FROM OCCURRING ( my dermat gave me this tip ... hehe ).

it turns into a granulated paste on application , has kind of coarse particles in it. may be good or bad depending on your skin , mild or heavy exfoliation !

what me mumsy thinks about it( she's going to probably muder me for clling her mumsy):-

she said that her skin felt soft( it indeed did). exfoliation was kinda k . she did feel a tightening effect when the pack was on . however , after 2 hrs it vanished . the GLOW stayed on for about a day or so. we need to try it on a bit more for the long term effects to be visible. she finds the price exorbitant though .she scolded me abit for wasting money on unwanted and useless products and stated that her besan and multani mitti masks are the best ( more on that at a later date) . you know the general tendency of mums .

now the crux of it 

PROS:-

1. gives a temporary glow.
2. is herbal .
3. doesn't have a strong herbal scent despite being an aroma magic product 
4. skin feels tighter after use.
5. cheaper than several other anti ageing face masks in the market.
6. easily available either at cosmetic stores or even online .
7. provides exfoliation .
8. reduces redness and plumps skin temporarily

CONS:-

1. no long terms effects
2. full ingredient list not mentioned( that's the thing i hate about several herbal brands)
3. might be costly for some
4. availability might be a issue
5. may cause allergic reactions ( undisclosed complete ingredient list)
6. tingles a bit
7. doesn't do everything it claims .

RATING:-

3 ON 5......... an average meh kinda product.

LAST WORD :-

i would not personally recommend it . there are several better products available in the market . i wont surely buy it again . 

CAUTION:-

before using any skin care product be sure to consult your dermatologist or your gp . user's discretion advised .since the product  worked on someone's skin it may not mean that it might work on other skins too.

until the next time.

buh- bye ,

take care 

much love,

tip of the day!

hey everyone!
this is a new feature i am starting on my blog -" TIP OF THE DAY" yaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
so today's tip will be -
i , about a year back , i got fringes done in my hair and within a week , to my horror , my forehead was full of breakouts. i tried to reason , argue and fight my brain to find the cause and it all came to one ignorable but very important habit
want clear complexion sans any acne , blemishes and irritation? one thing you can do is -

 KEEP YOUR HAIR AWAY FROM YOUR FACE !
                                               

all those beauties out there who love their hair ( and face too) need to understand that the most uglies are caused due to hair and hair products .
hair on the face means oil (from the scalp along all the germs and grime and yucky stuff......cmon gals admit that your hair isn't as clean as your face all the times ,isn't it?) on the face which often means ACNE !!!!!!!!!!!
whatever hair products you use shampoo, conditioner, styling gels , sprays or even serums and oils they tend to disturb the natural pH levels of the skin thereby producing more sebum and causing unwanted, very hated zits !
                                           
so darlins keep your hair tied or in a head band as far as possible .

our very own stunner bipasha basu in a slick pony tail for the move corporate ....please note how her  skin automatically becomes the focus and imparts radiance to the look !

and when doing anything to your hair wash it all off your face and skin so that none of the residue remains on the skin and causes problems !
in one month or so you may notice a radical improvement in your skin!
tell me how it works for you and also all other treatments u tried that worked / did no work in the comments below
 love,
vj........<3
