Dove Hamper Giveaway- 5 winners

‘It was a Saturday night, I was getting ready for the biggest party in town, when the mirror asked me, do you think your hair is well nourished?’ Well, I have virgin hair and I haven’t really colored or straightened my hair ever. I have just got the Cysteine treatment done once which is very safe and lasts hardly a month and a half or so. But I have been hardly oiling my hair from the last one year or so and I know my hair has turned drier. Also a lot more unmanageable and frizzy. I can so no, not well nourished enough.

Come winters and my biggest problem is dandruff. The scalp is super dry and itchy these days and I have been trying 1-2 anti-dandruff shampoos but no luck yet. I know I have to take extra care of my hair too and not just skin, and that goes for most of us I believe. We all take our hair for granted and torcher it. No one would dare risk their skin with any new treatment or product easily. But for hair, bring on the heat and hairstyles,right! 😀

I think its the perfect time for me to try this Dove range as it promises to nourish my dry hair and ends, and also help with dandruff at the same time. Dove has always worked for my hair as its creamy and hydrating, especially the conditioners. It leaves my hair soft and smooth. My hair needs the nourishment like NOW!

Maybelline Color Show Glitter Mania Collection Review, Swatches, NOTD and Nailfie Contest!

What the Company claims: Stunning 3D Effect in 8 Glittering shades.

Maybelline New York launches for the 1st time ever in India a textured nail paint with the most unique finish. Never seen before Color Dry technology that provides a sand-textured effect in the hottest glitter shades. Experience glitter like you have never seen before!

This product is available in 8 exciting shades! Namely – Dazzling Diva, Red Carpet, Bling on the Blue, Pink Champagne, Paparazzi Purple, Matinee Mauve, All That Glitters & Starry Nights. Based on our Color Show premise, we have a unique shade that fits every mood and personality.In keeping with the same here is an insight for the same: Glitter has forever been a ramp and red carpet favorite! This season is all about textures and embellishments. Glitter Mania is the best of two worlds! Helping our girls taking their style from the catwalk to the sidewalk with this exciting new range! At just Rs.125, this range is very accessible!

MRP: Rs.125/- for 6ml (Buy on Flipkart HERE)

Shades Available: 8

  • 601 All That Glitters (Gold)
  • 602 Dazzling Dive (Silver)
  • 603 Starry Nights (Black)
  • 604 Red Carpet
  • 605 Matinee Mauve
  • 606 Paparazzi Purple
  • 607 Pink Champagne
  • 608 Bling on the Blue

So, to start with, I am loving the names..so fun and quirky..these come in a small cute bottle same as the Color Show Nail Paints.

We got to try one shade at the event itself..and I picked and applied 607 Pink Champagne..its on my nails from the last Friday..today being the 6th day. And so I though lets review these before I change onto some other shade (Was so tempted to :p)

I had applied 2 coats of the shade and I got full opaque coverage with the 2 coats..it feels matte and gritty coz of the liquid sand technology..but I personally loved this finish.

The color did not dull out or fade..but on your right hand nails, if you cook or eat or something, the finish gets slightly different after 2-3 days..I am quite impressed by the staying power of these..it did not chip at all..and only after 4-5 days, I saw the color go off from the tips but not too visible or obvious. I am loving the staying power.

Also, as with all glitter nail polishes, I thought it would be a pain to remove these..but surprisingly and thankfully, it was not much of an issue and they came off pretty smoothly than expected.

Today I have swatches of Pink Champagne and the rest on each finger which I just changed after writing the review for a better description.

601 All That Glitters (Gold)- Dull Gold with silver shimmer

602 Dazzling Dive (Silver)- Bright Silver with silver shimmer..my fellow nail blogger Dhara Singh of The Happi Therapy found it to be an exact dupe of OPI Liquid Sand in It’s Frosty Outside.

603 Starry Nights (Black)- Deep Black with silver shimmer

604 Red Carpet- True Red with pink and silver shimmer (Good shade for bridal wear)

605 Matinee Mauve- Deep Pink Mauve with silver and pink shimmer

606 Paparazzi Purple- Bluish Purple with silver and blue shimmer

607 Pink Champagne- Champagne Pink with silver shimmer

608 Bling on the Blue- Sky Blue with silver shimmer

My favorites are the Pink Champagne, Silver and Gold. Would do an NOTD with Red and Silver soon..Red would make a nice wedding season shade.

Ok..so an announcement here..I am running a small contest on my twitter and Instagram in association with Maybelline where you guys need to send me your nailfies (Ya like selfies,nailfies :p) That is, your nail art or any nail of the day pictures using the Maybelline Color Show or the Color Show Glitter Mania range (or any Maybelline nail paint).
