The Body Shop Virgin Mojito Body Scrub, Body Butter, Body Splash Review

Hi guys,

If you know I have running an Instagram contest for this new Virgin Mojito Range from The Body Shop, I also got a chance to try a few products from this new range and here is my review on it.

The Body Shop Virgin Mojito Body Scrub

Ingredients:

MRP: Rs.1295/- for 250ml

It comes in the same plastic jar as the Fuji Green Tea Body Scrub and has the same gel like texture and consistency with white and green fine granules. I already love the Fuji Green Tea Body Scrub and loving this too, this one smells more refreshing and exactly like Mojito! It leaves the skin gently exfoliated and soft without any greasiness or heaviness.

The Body Shop Virgin Mojito Body Splash

What the Company claims: The Body Shop brings you an innovative, brand-new fragrance format! With a zingy fragrance, our NEW Limited Edition Virgin Mojito Body Splash lets you splash on the crisp, refreshing scent of lime and fresh mint after the shower to extend the feeling of freshness all day. Innovative way to apply our new fragrance Light and fast-drying With the extract of Caribbean mint and lime Made with Community Fair Trade Organic Cane Sugar from Paraguay

Ingredients:

MRP: Rs.1395/- for 300ml

This is the first time The Body Shop has come up with a Body Splash, I think it is launched in place of the Body Mist. It is a thin, runny water like liquid which you just need to rub all over your body after a bath or after using the body butter. It evaporates quickly leaving behing a nice whiff of lime and mint. Again very, very refreshing. Only con would be it doesn’t stay that long on it’s own and over the body butter, it stays for like 3-4 hours. I would have loved if it stayed longer for at least 5-6 hours.

The Body Shop Virgin Mojito Body Butter

What the Company claims: Smooth on fresh hydration with our Limited Edition Virgin Mojito Body Butter, refreshingly fragranced with a twist of zesty lime and the scent of fresh mint. Up to 24-hr fresh hydration Lightweight texture Suitable for normal skin With the extract of Caribbean lime and mint Made with Community Fair Trade Shea Butter from Ghana

Ingredients:

MRP: Rs.1095/- for 200ml

As I had mentioned in my previous Fuji Green Tea Range Review, that I am not a fan of The Body Shop Body Butters and I prefer the Body Lotions as my skin is not very dry and I do not like rich and heavy creams except in extreme winters which is rare in a humid city like Mumbai.

I was expecting this to be of the same formulation as the Fuji Green Tea Body Butter but this one was very rich and heavy. I compared the ingredients of both and I found that the Fuji Green Tea Body Butter only had soybean oil and shea butter as the rich ingredients whereas this Virgin Mojito Body Butter contains cocoa butter, shea butter, beeswax, soybean oil and sesame oil as the rich ingredients and that makes it very heavy.

I would be using this Virgin Mojito Body Butter only in the 2 months of Mumbai winters, but otherwise I still prefer the Fuji Green Tea one coz it is very light and non greasy. If you are someone who has very dry skin, the Virgin Mojito Body Butter is perfect for you! It is very moisturizing and hydrating. Also for someone who feels itchiness due to dry skin or is developing stretch marks, this one will give your skin the much needed moisture.

Overall I would say this range is very, very refreshing coz of the fresh lime and mint. It would have been amazing if this range would have been launched in the summers. I love the Body Scrub and the new Body Splash too, the Body Butter is slightly rich for me but when everything is used together, the smell stays on much longer.

Have you checked out the new Body Shop Virgin Mojito Range yet? What do you think of it?

Grid Solution CC Cushion SPF 50 PA+++ Review & Giveaway

Grid Solution CC Cushion SPF 50 PA+++ Review & Giveaway

Hi guys,

I had received this Grid Solution CC Cushion quite some time ago but did not get the time to use it thoroughly for review and hence the delay in the review. Now that I have used it enough, here is the review.

What the Company claims: Grid solution is an exciting and revolutionary all in one cc cushion.That does not require the use for foundation, primer or powder setting, grid solution provides all this in one application.
Our new technology allows your skin to glow and breath and provides coverage to all skin complexions from light, medium to tanned skin,
Containing superior antioxidant and sun protection against UVA and UVB of SPF 50 PA +++,
Grid solution is also 100% waterproof, anti allergy, spots and blackheads and provides instant hydration.
This formula fills in micro lines and ensures a smooth and even appearance. and the non-absorbing puff applicator cools and soothes the skin for a refreshing finish every time.

Ingredients:

MRP: $31 for 13g (Buy HERE)

It is made in Korea and comes in this black round packaging. I really liked the packaging, it is sturdy and smooth and the quality is good, it is not like those cheap plastic outer we usually see. Also it is travel friendly. It comes with a mirror, sponge and the cushion. The concept is quite similar to the Lancome Miracle Cushion but that of course has many shades and a bit higher coverage.

The top compartment has the sponge with a grip hold on the top. The white compartment to house the sponge has enough distance between the sponge and there is a tiny plastic separator so the compartment will never touch the cushion.

The cushion was covered with a plastic wrap and on lifting it, it was perfect and neat. No mess up there. You get the product on pressing the sponge on the cushion 1-2 times, I don’t cover my entire sponge with the product but just one side as I won’t be going all over the face at once but build it slowly. I need to go about pressing 2-3 times since I just use one side and it is enough to cover my entire face.

The liquid is quite thin and comes out easily on the sponge, also it blends seamlessly on the face. Always go pat pat and never drag coz dragging will only remove the product. It is quite hydrating and takes care of dry patches also anywhere on the skin, does not accentuate them at all.

But it is slightly rich and gives that shine on the face, hence needs a compact powder on the top or else you might end up looking like an oil slick.

The best part about this cushion is the SPF, it has amazing sun protection with an high PA, you will not need any separate sunscreen when using this. Coming to the disadvantage, it is only available in one shade. The shade appeared a bit lighter to me on swatching but it oxidized over the day and by the time I removed it, my normal skin was lighter and this was darker.

It claims to be 100% water proof, so you can even use it while swimming for sun protection. Also they claim it acts as a primer and fills in lines giving the skin a smoother appearance. It does to certain extent, have to agree.

Also if you read the ingredients above, it has olive oil and aloe vera extracts which makes it rich and moisturising plus rose, jasmine, daffodil, clover, honeysuckle and other fruit and flower extracts. So it is skin care + sunscreen + some coverage.

Fortunately the shade more or less works for me, but I do need a compact on the top. I suggest using your shade of foundation or compact or a BB cream on top of it to match your skin tone. Also the coverage is very light, so you would need a separate concealer for your problem areas.

I have worn only the Grid Solution CC Cushion here for my base and nothing else. See the shine on the face, definitely needs a compact on top. Also the coverage is very low, so it only evens out the skin tones, but would not hide scars or dark circles.

I also got the five face masks shown above with the Cushion, they are so amazing! I tried the Milk one and loved my skin post the mask.

I am giving away one Grid Solution CC Cushion and these 5 face masks to one lucky winner. All the rules in the Rafflecopter widget below.

The giveaway starts today and ends after 10 days on 24th October, 2015. It is open internationally.

Good Luck 🙂

Johara Cosmetics (Colors) Makeup Reviews, Swatches, FOTD

Hi guys,

Today I am reviewing some makeup items from Johara Cosmetics. Let me tell you a little about Johara Cosmetics at first..

About the brand: Johara Cosmetics is a part of the Sabinsa and Sami Group. Johara® is the culmination of this on-going effort in Research and Development for more than two and half decades and over 120 scientists diligently focusing their efforts towards creating effective and safe products.

The company has a state-of-the-art R & D Center and six cutting-edge manufacturing units, adhering to the strictest quality and safety standards, ensuring that the highest quality of products are being manufactured.

Today, the Sabinsa and Sami Group holds a strong intellectual property portfolio with 90+ US and International Patents to its credit, including worldwide awards and recognitions. Our cosmeceuticals are derived from natural botanical sources to meet the changing skin care needs of the modern women. We ensure that our ingredients offer a safe and natural approach to enhance beauty and health. Check out more HERE

So as the brand claims suggests, Johara Cosmetics are made from the best of the ingredients and are all safe and natural adhering to their quality standards.

They have Skin Care, Body Care (i.e. Bathing Bar and Body Mist) and Colors which is all about makeup but no foundation or base makeup yet, I hope they launch those soon.

For now, I am reviewing the lipstick, eyeliner, kajal and nail color.

Johara® Crème Rich Lip Color

Johara® Crème Rich Lip Color glides on for show-stopping, saturated rich creamy color finish. Rare Ricin oil and Vitamin E act to hydrate and nourish your lips. Choose from 12 delectable shades and true-wearing color that dazzles at the workplace or party. Long-wearing, smooth and lustrous, our lipsticks make you want to get more than one shade!

More To Love: Parabens free, Lanoline free, Mineral Oil free, Nano-ingredient free

Shades Available: 12

MRP: Rs.395/- for 4.5g

I have the shade Pink Flash. To start with the packaging, it comes in this complete silver outer packaging with golden interior. I like the packaging, also the quantity of 4.5g is very good for a lipstick.

Pink Flash is a pretty coral pink color. The texture is creamy and the finish is glossy, you get opaque coverage in 2 swipes so the pigmentation is quite decent too. The staying power is average, it stays for 3-4 hours with light snacking and drinks but leaves behind a pretty stain which stays for another 1-2 hours. Only glitch is it fades from the center first when you eat or drink.

Overall, I like the color and the finish is pretty good for everyday use. But if you want matte or long staying lipstick, then this is not for you. At Rs.395, it is quite good for the quantity and quality.

Johara® Pro Shine Nail color

Dress up your nails in a stroke of Johara® Pro Shine Nail colors. The formulae are long lasting, quick-drying, and apply evenly, while high-quality pigments ensure eye-catching ultra-shine. The special design brush helps to achieve an even application of colors. Choose from 14 ProShine youthful shades to pep up your look every day.

Shades Available: 14

MRP: Rs.250/- for 10ml

I have the shade Ocean Green. I like that the bottle is not very huge for 10ml quantity. Pigmentation is good, you get perfect coverage in two coats.

Ocean Green is perfect sea green which looks kind of mint but is not exactly mint.

I do not agree with the quick drying and long lasting claim here. It took quite long to dry on nails and chipped from the front in 3 days.

The shades available are less and also the price is a little higher for a nail paint, not very happy with this.

Johara Deep Impact Kajal

Use Johara Deep Impact Kajal for mesmerizingly beautiful eyes. This creamy Kajal gives you deep coverage and effortlessly glides on in one easy stroke. Smudge-proof and easy to blend, it is also moisturizing and light-wearing. Let this super-creamy kajal be the secret behind your expressive eyes.

Free of volatiles, parabens and preservatives.

Lasts upto 10 hours

Easy to apply

Water-proof

Dermatologically approved

Ophthalmologically approved

Suitable for contact lens wearers

MRP: Rs.325/- for 0.35g

It comes in this sleek, black packaging and is in retractable form. The moment I swatched it, I was blown away by the creaminess and pigmentation. It glides like butter and is intense jet black! It is everything a kajal should be! No kajal/kohl stays long on me coz of my watery eyes. This one stayed for around 7-8 hours, though it has slightly faded but was still there.

I am super impressed with this kajal, best at this price point in the longest time I have tried. Highly recommend this!

Johara Expert Pen Eyeliner 

Put an expert to line the windows to your soul. Johara Expert Pen Eyeliner has a unique pen formula that gives you oh-so-smooth and precise application, creating a highly pig­mented, intense black line, that is quick-drying and non-feathering.

The inno­vative tip applicator provide ultimate control without skipping, so what you get is pure drama for your eyes.

Free of parabens and formaldehyde compounds

Lasts upto 12 hrs & more

Water-resistant

Quick drying

Dermatologically approved

Ophthalmologically approved

Suitable for contact lens wearers

MRP: Rs.575/- for 1ml

I love using pen eyeliners, coz they are super easy and convenient to use. This Johara Expert Pen Eyeliner looks exactly like a black pen. The tip is thick and stiff, it is easy to work around with. Again the pigmentation is mind blowing, super rich and dark black.

The tip being thick, you won’t get a thin line or a small, thin wing. But if you are someone who always prefer a thick eyeliner, then this is perfect for you and will make your life super easy.

I am mostly into thin, defined lines. I rarely go thick on the eyes, but when I do, I will only reach for this. With thinner tips, you have to go over again and again to create thickness. With this liner, one stroke and you will be sorted.

I definitely recommend this if you love thick eyeliner on your eyes. you will surely love this to bits.

I have used the Kajal, Eyeliner and the lipstick here..

You can buy the products from Johara Cosmetics website, I have linked above. It will route you through Sami Direct. They also have skincare and I am currently trying out their Night Cream which I will be reviewing soon.

Have you heard of Johara Cosmetics? What do you think of these products?

Avene Cleanance Soapless Gel Cleanser Review

Avene Cleanance Soapless Gel Cleanser Review

What the Company claims:  This soap-free and paraben-free gel gently cleanses and purifies your skin while respecting its pH. It cleanses the skin gently without abrasion (no rebound effect). It is suitable for young, oily, blemish-prone skin as it purifies the skin and controls oil secretion, leaving your skin fresh and non-irritated. It contains 60% Avène Thermal Spring Water which has amazing soothing properties and the new sebum-regulating ingredient Glyceryl Laurate. This cleanser prepares the skin for treatment. It is an economical product, as a small quantity is enough to be effective.

Price for 200 ml is Rs 1100 (Buy HERE)

How to use: Use Cleanance Soapless Gel Cleanser morning and evening on your face and body. Apply to wet skin, lather and rinse thoroughly. Remove any remaining traces of make-up on the face and soothe the skin by spraying with Avène Thermal Spring Water.

Ingredients:

Cleanance Range:

  • reduces/limits sebum production
  • soothes irritations
  • Nips acne right at the root
  • leaves the skin feeling fresh and mattified

I have been using the Avene Cleanance Gel since quite a few weeks now, actually post my break out, I am only stuck to this. Read on to know what I think about it.

I researched a bit about Glyceryl Laurate, which is the new ingredient of the Avene Cleanance Range. It is a monoester of glycerin and lauric acid, skin conditioning agent and helps as emollient and surfactant. It basically forms a film on the skin and gives the skin a smoother, softer feeling. And also helps in sebum regulation.

To start with the packaging, it comes in this sleek plastic bottle with a white cap which you have to swivel to get the dispensor and dispense the product and swivel back again to close, something you see in talcum powders but this has just one tiny hole to dispense which is the perfect size.

It will not leak while you travel with it, but since this is a bit bulky and huge, I would not say it is travel friendly. I would have loved if it would have been available in smaller sizes too.

It is a bit thinner in texture and not exactly like gel, it has this hint of blue in it. I wash my face, take some product in my palms and then just blend some in my palms and some on the wet face directly.

It removes my basic makeup i.e eye liner, non waterproof mascara, sunscreen, BB cream, etc. without any hassles. It does not burn or sting the eyes at all! Something I really like, which most of the cleansers do, on my eyes. You will feel a thin film on the face but not something uncomfortable. It did not dry out the skin at all!

Coming to the main part, it definitely helped in my acne, no breakouts ever since I am using this and my previous scars have also almost faded. I am currently using this once a day, not twice a day since I have combination skin and not purely oily or blemish prone skin.

Though it is on the expensive side, the quantity is a lot and this 200ml bottle would easily last you at least 3-4 months depending on the usage.

I absolutely love it and recommend it. The most gentle cleanser I have used in a long time which removes my basic makeup, cleanses skin thoroughly from deep within, controls my break outs and even helps in fading the acne marks. And does not dry out the skin at all. It is a must try and will work for majority skin types, but if you have oily/acne prone/blemish prone skin, definitely get it today.

Rating:

Quality: 5/5
Value for money: 4.5/5
Availability: 4/5

Overall Rating: 4.5/5

Would I buy it again: Yes!

OOTD: 80’s Frills Dress

Hi guys,

A new OOTD today, this week I attended the Grazia BeauTea Party at The Taj Mahal Tea House in Bandra. It was a small meet of 6-7 bloggers and the Beauty Editor and Art Director of Grazia India. It will be covered in next month’s Grazia magazine which is the ‘Beauty Special’, so do grab your hands on that 😀

Anyhoo, this is what I wore. I am loving this red frills skater dress, it is so so comfortable and the frills make it look super pretty. Also it was a common style in the 80’s and has made a comeback and why not when all the styles from 70’s and 80’s have 😀

I paired it with my black fringed sling bag and black and gold ankle strap sandals. Finished with my current favourite Michael Kors rose gold link watch.

Style And The City on Fox Life India

Hi guys,

Today I am talking about one of my favourite shows on TV. I love lifestyle channels and shows based on fashion, current obsession is Fox Life India. Fox Life has a fashion band from Monday to Friday at 8pm, now you know what I do everyday at 8 😉

Go Style is an amalgamation of different shows which are topically about fashion and style. These shows include Clifton Shores, Style And The City, Life Mein Ek Baar and Styled by June. Every weekday Fox Life India will air one of these shows.

I personally love Style and the City. It shows the real side of fashion, how the shoots take place, what goes behind the shoots, how the sourcing is done and the backstage action behind the fashion shows. Also going to different cities of India from Benaras to Agra for inspiration and sourcing raw materials and how a fashion designer achieves what exactly what his client needs! Basically everything behind-the-scenes.

There is a new ‘Style Expert’, a fashion stylist or designer brought in every week who decodes looks or styles a shoot or fashion show or designs a new collection and we get to see how it is all done. My favourite style expert has to be Anaita Shroff Adajania, I love her styling be it in the movies or shoots or otherwise. And my favourite designer on the show is Ashish N Soni who gets into the minutest details of the fabric and designing.

Their tagline goes ‘Inside Celebrity Fashion Closets’ which is very apt and true for ‘Style And The City’. Apart from this, I also like ‘Life Me Ek Baar’ and all the other shows which air at the Go style band at 8pm everyday.

Now you can get the best of style on Fox Life India on Weekdays at 8 PM on #GoStyle.

BloomsBerry Hand Sanitizers, Nail Polish Removers Review

Hi guys,

Bloomsberry is a new Indian brand which has launched a range of hand care products which currently include hand sanitizers and nail polish removers.

About Bloomsberry: A thought that defines BloomsBerry so well. Driven by the philosophy of catering to each individual’s skin care and needs, BloomsBerry has launched a set of hand care products. With an effective yet unique formulation BloomsBerry is developing its each single drop to bring about a change in your life style.

About the hand sanitizers:

  • Bursting Beads melt on your hand, featuring vitamins A, E and C
  • Moisturize hands to reveal skin that is smoother and softer

Health and hygiene matters. BB hand sanitizers are tough on germs and kills them 9x better than the others. Every single drop gives a baby care to your hands and gloves them with a layer of moisturizer. BB sanitizers are filled with bursting beads that contains vitamin A, E and C. A wide range for everyone with a unique mesmerizing fragrance. So, develop a healthy hygiene with BloomsBerry. BloomsBerry Brand is emerging one of the best hand sanitizer in India.

Ingredients:

Variants available:

Green Apple Mojito
Spring Fizz
Fresh Blooms
Aqua Bliss
Blossom Bouquet
Purple Paradise

MRP: Rs.149/- for 29ml

To start with the packaging, it is super cute and so tiny that it makes it perfect to carry in your bag. The tiny beads and colorful sanitizers look very pretty and you get them in different variants, so you can choose what you like.

I loved the Aqua Bliss and Spring Fizz, fruity ones smelled a little sweet for my liking. These are definitely expensive than other sanitizers for the quantity, but you can feel the difference in quality when you use it. Hands feel softer and not drier which usually happens with sanitizers coz of the alcohol content.

They also claim to kill 9x more germs than normal sanitizers, so of course they have some proof for that. If you obsessed with hand sanitizers and like pretty ones in different variants, you will love these. Definitely recommend!

About the Nail Polish Removers:

  • Features castor oil and glycerine and won’t dry out cuticles.
  • Removes nail polish gently and evaporates without leaving any white residue
  • Formula is filled with vitamins which helps your nails grow stronger.

Bloomsberry introduces exclusive range of nail care products with its unique features and quality catering to individual nail requirements and problems.

Ingredients:

Variants available:

Nourishing Nails (Ocean Fragrance) – For Dry Nails
Strengthening Nails (Green Apple Fragrance) – For Weak/Brittle Nails
Acetone Free (Lemon Fragrance)- For Natural/Acrylic Nails
Nail Revival (Fragrance Free) – For Yellow Nails

MRP: Rs.149/- for 50ml

They come in a square white plastic bottle with grey cap packaging. I am glad these do not come in glass bottles which are very risky. The bottles are quite compact and small even though the quantity in each is 50ml, making them travel friendly too.

I love the fact that there is a different variant for every kind of nail. When I had got gel nail extensions done, I used the Acetone free one. I would be switching to the Strengthening Nails one now since my nails have become very weak and brittle after the extensions.

Even though there is one specific variant for dry nails, none of these nail polish removers are drying. Having tried 3-4 different brands, I can say this is by far the least drying nail polish remover brand.

But I don’t use these liquid removers much now, as I prefer either the nail polish remover pads or the sponge bottles to dip your nails in.

I would be really glad if Bloomsberry comes with different variants of nail polish remover pads and those sponge bottles. But if you prefer using the nail polish removers and are looking for something non- drying and meant for your nail type, these are must try. Highly recommend them!

Bloomsberry products are available on Flipkart and Amazon in various combos and at lower prices as introductory offers. Check out more at www.bloomsberry.in

Have you tried any Bloomsberry product yet?
