New Maybelline ColorShow Lipsticks Review,Swatches

What the Company claims: With our new Color Show Lip Colors, we bring the catwalk colors to the sidewalk, just for you. The all new Maybelline Color Show Lip Color range has 32 vibrant moisture rich shades that enable you to express yourself every day. We give a shade for your every mood; now show your independence with reds, power with mauves, playful side with pinks & warmth with browns. These 32 intense colors suit all Indian skin tones and we’re absolutely sure you’re going to love them!

The main four color families are:
– Classis Reds (7 shades)
– Marvellous Mauves (10 shades)
– Provocative Pinks (6 shades)
– Delicious Browns (9 shades)

Why you will love this new lip color range? Because,
– They give all day hydration.
– They are heat resistant
– They guarantee color integrity.
– They do not fade even in extreme heat and humidity.
– They have a non-sticky, soft texture and hence are easy to glide.

The Color Show Lip Colors provide you with a range of shades which have the right amount of moisture, a sweet fragrance and stay true without drying up your lips just for Rs. 299/-

MRP: Rs.299/- for 3.9g

I am not sure if there are 27 shades or 32 shades, or maybe they have added 5 new shades.

Here are the 27 shades..

Maybelline’s Color Show range, whether it be nail paints or lipsticks, is a big hit! Coz they offer so many shades and are so economical plus they offer quality too!

Today I am reviewing the shades Fuchsia Flare,Orange Icon, Red Rush and Cherry Crush.

Fuchsia Flare is from the Pink family, Orange Icon is from the Brown family and Red Rush and Cherry Crush from the Red family.

To start with the packaging, they come in a black packaging with a thin transparent strip in between which denotes which color family the shade belongs to, isn’t that cool and makes it easy to identify too unless of course if you have more shades from the same color family.

They have a nice, sweet candy smell which I love. The colors are super pigmented and glide on like butter. All the shades are true to its names. They have a creme finish, so neither glossy nor matte.

L-R: Fuchsia Flare,Orange Icon,Red Rush,Cherry Crush
Clockwise from left: Fuchsia Flare,Orange Icon,Red Rush,Cherry Crush

These swatches are just 2 light swipes.

L-R: Fuchsia Flare,Orange Icon,Red Rush,Cherry Crush

They stay on for 3-4 hours and leave behind a stain,especially the darker colors. They can survive light snacks and drinks but not full meal. Also these are not transfer proof.

Here are these on moi..

Clockwise from left: Fuchsia Flare,Orange Icon,Red Rush,Cherry Crush

Fuchsia Flare is a true blue based fuchsia pink ( no hint of neon)

Orange Icon is a light orange color. It reminds of those orange wedges shaped sweets we used to get as kids and also orange gola 😀 It is slightly on the sheer side and goes a bit patchy.

Red Rush is a deep warm red which makes you teeth look whiter. It is the most pigmented of the lot.

Cherry Crush is a super pretty carrot pink..my favourite of the lot.

Overall, I would say these are perfect in terms of pricing,quality,quantity,pigmentation, shades available. I have no cons for these, the staying power could have been better but then no creme finish lipsticks stay longer than that anyway. Highly recommended!!

Renault Lodgy: New MPV in India

Renault Lodgy: New MPV in India

Well last weekend at this time, I was in Goa with the Blogadda team and 40 bloggers from all over India to drive and experience the new Renault Lodgy, the latest Multi Purpose Vehicle in India.

Starting with the design, it looks fabulous with the wide head lamps. It is totally sleek and stylish, especially the black ones look killer.

It comes in 7 seater or 8 seater options and the 2nd and 3rd row are foldable and super spacious. I sat on all the three rows to experience how comfortable it is. Renault claims their third row is their advantage compared to other MPV’s in the market, coz it is spacious and has a separate A/C vent for the third row. I was on the third row for quite a while and it is indeed very spacious with enough leg room which is usually an issue in mostly all MPV’s.

Also the 2nd row can be easily folded for people to get in the 3rd row, with just a push of the button on the top of the seat, unlike trying to fiddle with the bottom adjusting bar every time in MPV’s.

The interiors look super classy and it has  beige and grey quilted design on the seats. A MediaNAV console with a touch screen in the higher models and chrome finished AC vents on the front look super classy!

The suspension was pretty good, and there were no jerks felt even on the third row. Coming to safety, it has airbags for both the front seats, one button car lock, etc. It goes from 80kmph to 0 in 35 metres which is again a superior feature compared to its competitors who are in 40-45 metres range, well every metre matters during an accident! The curves and bends went super smooth. Renult Lodgy also offers cruise control where you can just relax and let the car work on long road trips. Even though it is diesel, it hardly made any noise and it was NIL on the inside. It can practically give a mileage of 19-20 kmpl

It comes in 85 and 110 PS engine,well we got to try both. The 110 PS engine of course was super! It comes in 7 variants and starts from Rs. 8.19 lakhs.

Overall, I can only say that is the most stylish, practical and comfortable MPV in India that I have tried and experienced or sat in 🙂

P.S: It was raining continuously and I could hardly manage a few pics. Pics are from the Renault Lodgy website.

I was a part of the #LiveLodgycal Drive by BlogAdda.com in association with Renault India

Gillette Venus #SubscribeToSmooth Challenge Final Update

Hi guys,

Time for the last and final update of the Gillette Venus #SubscribeToSmooth Challenge. Read more about the event and the challenge HERE and the first update HERE, 2nd update HERE and the 3rd update HERE

I have been shaving my legs for more than a month now. I was always into waxing but things have changed since my marriage, I hardly get the time to go to a salon and also since it’s a new place, I was not very comfortable going to any salon. (Since I used to go to a particular salon only pre marriage near my parents’ place)

This shaving challenge came at the perfect time for me and I readily took it up, and I am so glad I did. I am a convert now and I guess the ease of shaving and how quick it is, has made me a shaving girl now 😀

Today I will bust the myths ‘Shaving causes harm to the skin’ and ‘Shaving causes nicks and cuts’. Well, shaving can cause nicks and cuts if a proper razor is not used and one is not careful while shaving. That was one of the reasons I never shaved before, coz I was always scared of nicks and cuts. But with the adjusting head of Gillette Venus razor, it goes on like super smooth even in the edges and corners of the legs and there has not been a single cut or nick ever with it. I don’t think I am trying out any other razor ever. And as far as causing harm to the skin is concerned, absolutely not! Shaving does not cause any harm to the skin, in fact it removes the dead skin cells and exfoliates in a way.

Benefits of Shaving:

  • Does not damage or darken the skin like hair removing creams
  • Saves a lot of time as no salon visits and can be done anytime,anywhere in minutes
  • Can be carried along anywhere, even on your long holidays
  • One razor lasts 3 months, so it saves a lot of money compared to other hair removal methods!
  • A total value for money
  • Ease of use, you just need a few extra minutes in your bathroom to shave and you are sorted

I have shared the correct method and some tips for shaving HERE and HERE

Its been a boon for me and now I can wear all my dresses without a second thought. I totally love the idea of shaving now and I don’t think I am going back towards waxing anytime soon 😀 From a girl who never shaved to one who does not want to go back,it’s quite a leap,don’t you think? Definitely give it a try, if you haven’t yet!

Kawar Dead Sea Facial Mask Review

Kawar Dead Sea Facial Mask Review

What the Company claims: Kawar dead sea facial mask
Kawar Dead Sea Facial Mask is one of the best Dead Sea cosmetics, prepared and purified mechanically. Aloe Vera, a natural ingredient, is added to keep your skin’s elasticity. This mask helps clean and open pores, and purifies and tightens the skin to feed the cells with many nutrients

Qty: 150ml
Finish: Handmade
Inspiration: Dead sea

With the increase in salinity and potash Dead Sea is not just famous for its uniqueness of not harbouring any lives but it is also known for its soil which is full of many minerals present in nature. Years and years of research have shown Dead Sea minerals to cure diseases and aches and the huge salt mixture present in the water has created a by product that does wonders to the skin

Origin: Dead Sea, Jordan

MRP: Rs.1434/-

Available HERE on Tjori.com

Ingredients:

To start with, I know the tube has a big spelling error ‘Daed Sea’ but it is all natural and manmade and I guess it is made in a smaller batch and through small time artisans for packing,etc.

The Dead Sea of Jordan is supposed to be very good for skin with all the minerals and salts present in it. The main base ingredient in this mask is the dead sea soil. It is infused with the goodness of aloe vera and clay.

Now clay helps clean and tighten pores and controls oil production on the skin. Aloe Vera of course soothes and moisturises the skin.

It comes in a tube form and is a large tube. The mask is ash grey in color and clay like in texture but is a bit runny. Even though you shake the tube well before dispensing, it is runny and you have to be careful to not get excess product which usually happens with this one.

It is smooth to apply and does not tug since it is quite runny. I keep the mask for 15-20 minutes, though it dries completely in 10 minutes.

Me with the Mask :p

And while washing off, like I do with all face masks, I scrub the skin a bit with the mask. My skin feels fresh,renewed and tight. I even saw a difference in break outs with its regular usage, though when you stop using this for a long time in between, break outs start again.

I agree it is on the expensive side, but then it is all natural and made with dead sea. And also this tube is like huge and it will last a good time.

June ‘Take Charge’ Fab Bag Review

Hi guys,

A new month and new bags and boxes start pouring in. Also the most exciting part is the unboxing,isn’t it?!

This month’s Fab Bag theme is ‘Take Charge’. It’s a deep purple loose bag which can stock a lot of things, perfect to carry along your makeup or toiletries during travel. I loved the color and material..its quite soft but sturdy and not something that would tear easily.

MRP: Rs.599/- per month (Offers on 6 months and 12 months subscription. Go HERE)

Read my previous March Fab Bag Review HERE, April one HERE and May one HERE

Let’s see what all I received in this month’s Fab Bag..

  • Cuccio Colour Nail Enamel in Shaking My Morocco- Full size (Rs.675/- for 13ml)
  • Cuccio Naturale Butter Blend- Milk & Honey- 9.24g tube (Rs.2970/- for 240g)
  • Votre Fresh Cooling Sun Protection Mist SPF25 50ml bottle (Rs.980/- for 100ml)
  • Ananda Spa Light Moisturiser For Normal to Dry Skin, small jar (I guess 8-9g) (Rs.1350/- for 50g)
  • All Good Scents Arise (For Men) Perfume vial- Father’s Day Bonus

This time we have one full sized product i.e. the 13ml Cuccio nail enamel, I am happy with the bright coral colour which is perfect for summers. The Ananda Spa Light Moisturiser is rose and sandalwood based and smells nice, would love to try this out.

We have half the sized bottle of Votre Fresh Cooling Sun Protection Mist SPF25 which will be worth Rs. 490/- and the small tube of Cuccio Butter for hand,feet and body. Lastly, a small perfume vial bonus from All Good Scents for Father’s Day.

Overall, a nice bag considering value for money as the nail enamel and sun protection mist itself total to more than Rs.1000, but I have seen better Fab Bags in previous months. I feel next month’s bag would be amazing though, let’s wait and watch 😀

Gillette Venus #SubscribeToSmooth Challenge: 3rd Update

Hi guys,

Time for another update of the Gillette Venus #SubscribeToSmooth Challenge. Read more about the event and the challenge HERE and the first update HERE and 2nd update HERE.

Its been almost a little more than a month that I have only shaved my legs and not gone for any other method of hair removal.

In this post I will bust the myths that ‘Shaving causes itchiness’ and ‘Shaving changes hair texture or hair growth’. Well shaving does not at all change the hair texture in any way. As I explained in the first post, it is just the top part of the hair we cut when we shave, so the hair that grows and comes out later is the inside part which is in the roots of the skin,which is a little darker as it has more melanin and hence we feel that the hair is growing thicker and darker. It is just that the hair that was within comes out and we feel it is different when actually it isn’t and it is a part of the same hair. So there is no change in hair texture or color or thickness in anyway due to shaving.

Also I was the one who used to feel very itchy after shaving and that was always my concern, but with the tips I mentioned in the previous post, it has been breeze and I haven’t experienced any itchiness whatsoever. So it is not shaving that caused itchiness, but not following the necessary steps that caused the itchiness.

If compared to other hair removal methods, waxing is something I can’t and won’t prefer doing at home coz of the messiness it involves and always lack the time and patience to visit a salon for the same. I have also tried hair removal creams long back when I was in high school and junior college as doctor had advised me not to wax as my sensitive skin reacted to it then. The biggest disadvantage of hair removal creams is it darkens the skin, I have experienced that personally, with time and regular usage, it did darken the skin slowly. Also, I completely hated the smell of those hair removal creams.

And the biggest advantage of shaving for me currently is,I can do it quickly within a few minutes and anywhere. I just need to carry my small razor with me. What do you guys feel?

Oriflame The One Colour Unlimited Lipsticks Review,Swatches

What the Company claims:

MRP: Rs.499/-  for 1.7g

Shades Available:8

  • Violet Extreme
  • Pink Unlimited
  • Mocha Intensity
  • Fuchsia Excess
  • Forever Plum
  • Endless Red
  • Always Cranberry
  • Absolute Blush

I am reviewing the shades Fuchsia Excess and Endless Red today.

It comes in a sleek and slender grey and black packaging..only disadvantage of this packaging is you always get lipstick on the edges when you swivel it up and down. Also, this type of packaging mostly has less qty of lipstick like this one has only 1.7g

These are very moisturising, you don’t need any lip balm of any sort with these. They have sheer to medium coverage and you will need 2-3 swipes for opaque coverage especially for pigmented lips.

These are very glossy and shiny and mostly all the shades are pink and plum based, so I assume this range is targeted more towards the younger category.

It stays for 2-3 hours and I am a bit disappointed with the staying power,reading the 10 hour claim, but very easy to use and touch up. It does not bleed or stain teeth and you can quickly apply it anywhere.

Fuchsia Excess is a pretty blue based fuchsia pink,no neon here,pure fuchsia pink

Endless Red is a wearable,not too bright, light apple red with some fine shimmer

Top- Fuchsia Excess, Bottom- Endless Red

Here is it on me..

Left- Fuchsia Excess, Right- Endless Red

Overall I would say these are nice lipsticks to try,very moisturising,glossy and comes in some lovely shades. If you are looking for something matte or long staying, these are not meant for you. Also, Oriflame lipsticks are mostly on discounts, so do keep a check on the catalog and buy them on discount as they are a bit expensive at Rs.499/- for the quantity of 1.7g

June My Envy Box Review

Hi guys,

This month’s My Envy Box is the bomb! I just love it..

Read more about My Envy Box HERE and check out all the previous reviews HERE.

MRP: Rs.850/- (Available HERE)

This time its a bright coral box, I love the color <3 I like the revised packaging since April where there is only one card with all the product details and not 5 different cards. This month’s box has two full sized products!

Let’s see what all I got..

  • Catrice Smokey Eye Pencil in Petroling In The Deep which is a deep sea green (Full size– Rs.365/-)
  • Kerastase Elixir Ultime Oil (2 x 3ml each)
  • Hedonista Chocolate Face Soufflé- Full size (Rs.1650/- for 115g)
  • Estee Lauder Pleasures EDT sample vial
  • Natio Meditate Hand Cream– Deluxe Sample 20ml

I am in love with every product this time which is a part of the box, there have always been 1-2 products in My Envy Box every month which have been my favourites, but I like all the 5 products the first time :p

A full sized Catrice Eye Pencil, I love smokey eye pencils which are perfect for those 2 minute makeup days. I am quite excited to try this and might review this soon 🙂

I am currently using the Kerastase Elixir Ultime Oil and Beautifying Cream. Though the original bottle is not that big to carry, but these 3ml vials are perfect for travel. I am loving the oil and these vials are definitely coming along with me, on my next trip 😀

Hedonista Chocolate Face Souffle is a chocolate and clay based mask, now who doesn’t love chocolate. Never tried this brand but the packaging and the mask look super yummy and nice.

Estee Lauder Pleasures is a classic, and I absolutely love its smell.

And lastly the Natio Meditate Pink Lotus Hand Cream which smells divine and works pretty well as a hand cream <3

Overall I would say this month’s My Envy Box is a total paisa vasool and I quite like it. Highly recommended! Get the June box now, if you haven’t yet placed the order. I received the box today and reviewing it today itself, so that you guys can place your orders 🙂

SP Luxe Oil Hair Spa Review & Experience

Hi guys,

Last week I went for the SP Luxe Oil Hair Spa Experiental at the Tesoura Salon at Bandra. A much needed hair pampering after a long,long time.

I was greeted with Lemon Iced Tea and the attendant explained me the entire hair spa process.

Steps:

1. She washed my hair at first with the System Professional Luxe Oil Keratin Protect Shampoo.

2. The she combined the System Professional Luxe Oil Keratin Restore Mask and System Professional Luxe Oil Reconstructive Elixir in 80:20 proportion and applied it all over my hair strand by strand.

3. She massaged my scalp and hair for 4-5 minutes.

4. Then hair was given a steam,towards the ends for 3-4 minutes.

5. Hair was washed again,only with cold water this time.

6. Then she blow dried my hair on medium blast and applied a few drops of the System Professional Luxe Oil Reconstructive Elixir.

About the products used:

1.System Professional LuxeOil Keratin Protect Shampoo: Gives light-weight, luxurious cleansing, also sets the foundation and gives shine + keratin protection. It provides lightweight luxurious cleansing that sets the foundation for a transforming hair service. The shampoo contains a special system of surfactants and boosting polymers that create creamy, long-lasting foam allowing even distribution of key ingredients on hair.
200 ml for Rs 995

2.System Professional LuxeOil Keratin Restore Mask: Instantly reconstructs hair fiber to improve hair texture and leave it soft to touch. With a special combination of three specially design polymers, and the luxurious oils, the mask provides a luxurious lightness that creates a “lubricating film” that is thin, even and elastic on hair surface and provides super low surface & inter fiber friction without greasiness.
150 ml for Rs.1095

3.System Professional LuxeOil Reconstructive Elixir: Luxurious hair oil which protects hair keratin and provides light-weight, long lasting smoothness. It protects the hair from drying out and gives additional shine. The fusion of oils infuses into the hair structure to transform hair from inside and out and protects the keratin, leaving instant and long lasting smoothness.
100 ml for Rs 2300

Duration: 45-50 minutes

Here is my before-after 😀

Before-After

My hair felt super soft and smooth,frizz free and stayed that way for 3 days. I think it was an easy process and a deep conditioning hair spa like this can be even tried in the comfort of your home. You just need the shampoo,mask and serum. I am planning on splurging on these products, I already have the Reconstructive Elixir, would be trying the shampoo and mask soon.

What do you think of a hair spa? Do you do anything special for your hair?

P.S: Services were provided by the brand but that has not affected my opinion.

-­‐  Non-drying  texture
-­‐  Optimal  coverage
-­‐  24H  flawless  wear

Left: 160 Sand Beige, Right- 225 Beige

Shades Available: 4

MRP: Rs.1250/-

Check out the review,swatches and demo of the L’Oreal Paris Infallible Reno Liquid Foundation HERE

Today I am reviewing the shades 160 Sand Beige and 225 Beige of the Infalible Reno Powder Foundation. I am not sure why it is ‘Infalible’ instead of ‘Infallible’

To start with the packaging, the upper part is plastic and quite light. It comes in transparent crimson packaging with a see through cap. The lower part has a sponge and mirror which is something quite nice, as the sponge is in a separate compartment so it does not get mixed with the powder even if you use it wet and the mirror is so handy while travelling and for touch ups. Though I wish the packaging was a bit sturdier coz this might break,even if it falls down once.

The texture is very fine, though it is not the smoothest. It can be used wet or dry. I prefer using a brush when I am using it dry and the sponge it comes with when using it wet.

Left: 160 Sand Beige, Right- 225 Beige

It gives light coverage when used dry and a little more medium coverage when used wet. It is completely matte and there would be no trace of shine on your skin when you use this. This will be a boon for people with oily skin.

Left: 160 Sand Beige, Right- 225 Beige

Since I prefer dewy finish and I am not a fan of matte, I do not use powders often except for my T-zone. Also you will need to moisturise really well before using this, as it accentuates dry patches.

The main con for me is the white cast! 🙁 It gives a strong white cast,especially in photographs.

160 Sand Beige is supposed to be lighter than 225 Beige,as shown in the Shade Options available online. But somehow Sand Beige is a better match for me and 225 Beige appears lighter on me. Even in the swatches, Sand Beige is a little more yellow and that matches well with my skin tone.

Here I have used both 160 Sand Beige and 225 Beige wet with the sponge.

160 Sand Beige (Left- With Foundation, Right- Without Foundation)
Makeup with 160 Sand Beige as a base
225 Beige (Left- With Foundation, Right- Without Foundation)
Makeup with 225 Beige as a base

225 Beige is lighter and looks even more light with the whitish cast, as you can see.

I am not generally a fan of using powder foundations wet, unless you are out and don’t have any liquid foundation and are heading to a party or a function and need some coverage. I generally prefer using powders on them when for daily basis or as a setting powder.

It works well on its own and amazing as a setting powder, only when used wet, it gives a whitish cast which I don’t like. I would recommend the shade 160 Sand Beige for mostly all of us with medium skin tone and yellow undertone.

Overall,  I would say it’s a nice powder foundation which is perfect for travelling and a boon for oily skin. It works really well as a setting powder too and also amazing for touch-ups. I would not recommend it for dry skin or if you want to use it wet.
