Recently Rado launched a new all white (stunning) collection. I have a weakness for white watches (already have 3 whites :p). And, I love Rado ! So, the white Rado collection, you can imagine, how much I drooled over.
Lisa Ray talking about the brand
Rado had a small blogger meet up with just 12 of us lucky bloggers and their brand manager Simran Chandoke, Marketing Manager Piyush Kumar and their brand ambassador Lisa Ray, at the private area of Ming Yang, Taj Lands End. We were the privileged ones to see the collection up close and personal, try it on and play with it. The theme was black or white.
Also, we came to know quite a few interesting facts about Rado and this collection in particular. Rado was amongst the first ones to make ceramic watches.
Me and Hina chatting away
They have a tactile watch in this collection called the ‘Rado Esenza Ceramic Touch’.The vertical oval-shaped watch – crafted in black or white ceramic – is crown-free. Time is changed by pressing and sliding your fingers along the case to set the hours and minutes. The incredibly tactile watch offers something not seen on any other ladies model currently sold. They are going to patent the tactile feature in ceramic.
My First Rado ! (though a bad angle :/)
The one which I am wearing is the slimmest watch in that collection, as equal to 3 credit cards. And is made of mother of pearl. Super elegant.
Simran Chandoke, Brand Manager, Rado India
All the pieces in this collection were stunning. Simran and Piyush informed a lot about the brand in general and this collection in particular. And, Simran also explained the facts and features of each and every watch in detail.
We played a small game, where we got one word and we had to relate it to one watch from this collection and why we feel that word best describes the particular watch we selected.
Showing off our RadoMe and Jyo with Lisa Ray
It was a fun evening where we had dinner and conversations about blogging in general, Rado, Lisa Ray, social media, etc. And it was amazing interacting with Lisa Ray too.
Us !
Overall, quiet a nice meet and a different one at it. It was quiet an experience and I definitely would love such kind of more meets 😀

Have you shopped from Watckart.com before ? Are you a watch freak ?
To start with, I love the soft, refreshing smell. Its kinda like baby powder. And it stays for a long time..though not 24/48 hours.
Its very handy and compact to carry around in your bag too. It has 0% alcohol and the oils in the ingredients give it a very hydrating feel. Skin feels smoother and softer. It was very gentle on the skin and did not irritate the skin. I never use deodorants directly on underarms, but this one is meant to whiten your underarms and I first tried it on my hand and found it very gentle and hydrating and so went on with using it for the underarms. It also claims to be antiperspirant and works to a certain level.
Even when used on clothes, it does not stain them white. And the fragrance stays for a long time.
With continued usage, you seem some slight difference in your underarms. Coz licorice extracts are meant to work on dark pigmentation and lighten them bit.But then, you need to use it continuously and do not expect any magical results !
Overall, I would say, its a nice deodorant..and definitely worth a try.
Have you used the new Nivea Whitening Sensitive Deodorant ?

This time I got a nice lilac color box. (A break from pinks and peaches). I got the multi color pouch this time which was missing last month. Let’s see the contents inside..
What I got :
Innisfree Eco Nail Color Pro (Shade no.15)– Full sized 7ml bottle- Rs.300/-
Nina Ricci La Tentation De Nina Perfume –1.5ml vial worth Rs.144/- (Rs. 4800/- for 50ml)
Skinyoga Coconut Sea Salt Foot Scrub– 50g worth Rs.165/- (O.P- Rs.495/- for 150gms)
Kronokare Provencal Lavender Body Lotion– 35ml worth Rs.55/- (O.P- Rs. 345/- for 220 ml)
Total worth of the box comes to Rs.841/– plus you get the colorful pouch, the super sturdy lilac box (which is good for storage) and discount cards to buy the full sized products, and the shipping cost, and the price of the box being Rs.850/-, you can see how a total value for money it is ! (If the value of the Innisfree nail paint is Rs.300/- coz on few sites, I see it at Rs.200/-. Not really sure of that.) (Confirmed that there are two ranges..and this Eco Pro one is worth Rs.300/-)
Also many of you might not be very interested in these small luxury samples or do not consider it of much value, but I say if the samples are decent sized, then its better,that one gets to try it out and see if it works for them, and then spend that huge amount ! Same goes for perfumes..these 1.5 ml small vials are always helpful to judge whether you like a particular note or not.
I do think they should do away with Thalgo now..too much of Thalgo happening..and its always small 3ml or 5ml tubes which are hardly good for 1-2 uses. I like that there is second SkinYoga here and a good sized sample. And a new natural brand Kronokare included too which is also a good 35ml bottle, though can’t claim it to be a luxury brand. Nina Ricci La Tentation De Nina is a good qty small travel friendly vial..much much better than those sachet packs which are a pain to use.
And the full sized Innisfree nail paint is the best thing in the box..this time’s box is one of my favorites considering the value for money part. After the March box which had a Forest Essentials full sized lip balm.
Also, they give back 25% (INR 213 for a 1 month subscription) as ENVY points to use when buying full size products. The 10% discount is valid on almost all products on the website for subscribers.
Overall, I do like it..better than the previous boxes where we only got tiny sized 2-3 samples and perfume sachets. I hope they continue to include one makeup item and one full sized product in the future boxes.
Matrix Biolage Advanced Fiberstrong Treatment and Range Review
If you remember my #MakingUpWithMatrix posts on my facebook, twitter and Instagram, I had gone for this Matrix Biolage Advanced Fiberstrong Treatment at the Matrix Hair Academy. And later on, I was using this range to see the difference.
I was attended by Faiyaz Shaikh– Asst. Manager, Artistic at Matrix.
About the Fiberstrong range: BIOLAGE Advance FIBERSTRONG is the next generation of hair care from MATRIX that offers anti-hair fall hair products & services specially formulated to tackle weak, fragile and brittle hair.
Fiberstrong combines the goodness of Nature with BAMBOO and the power of Molecular Science with INTRA-CYLANE to give 95% less hair breakage in just 1 application. Bamboo passes on its strength to the hair promoting the elasticity of hair strands. Intra-cylane, an exclusive patented molecule, helps fill in the gaps and seals cuticles to reduce breakage. These indulgent ingredients help in creating a structural reinforcement system to strengthen weakened hair cuticles as they condition the hair for ultra -soft & smooth results.
It claims to have the power of Intra-Cylane and Bamboo extracts which gives 12 x stronger hair. Its a hair strengthening treatment against hair breakage and hair fall. And also claims to help reduce hair breakage by 95% in one application.
Step 1: At first, the hair is checked, by pulling one strand of your hair. If it goes back to its position and has elasticity and is strong enough. Upon that, its decided which stage of treatment your hair requires.
There are 3 stages:
Stage 1: Normal hair..not much breakage
Stage 2: Hair does not have enough elasticity and is prone to hair breakage
Stage 3: Damaged hair..breaks and falls easily.
Thankfully, I was falling under Stage 1, but Faiyaz said he would give the Stage 2 treatment so that I can see the difference.
Step 2: Hair wash and conditioning with the Matrix Biolage Advanced Fiberstrong Strengthening Shampoo and Conditioner.
Step 3: Fiberstrong Intra-Cylane Concentrate is applied on every section of hair.
Step 4: Fiberstrong Strengthening Masque is applied.
Step 6 and 7: Hair is rinsed and towel dried.
Step 8 : He applied Fiberstrong Strengthening Leave-in-cream and blow dried..and finished with few drops of Matrix Biolage Serum for shine.
This treatment is to be followed by using the Matrix Biolage Advanced Fiberstrong Strengthening Shampoo, Conditioner and leave-in-cream at home. Faiyaz made me feel my hair and I could definitely feel the difference.
For Stage 3 hair, special Aminexil ampules are used which anchor the roots and prevent hair fall.
The treatment costs anywhere between Rs.600- to Rs.1500/- depending on the hair damage stage and the salon. Its available in all salons which house Matrix services and products. Find a salon near you HERE
The products used..shampoo, conditioner, masque, leave-in-cream,serum and the intra-cylane concentrate.
And here is my before-after..
A front after shot..why break up when you can make up 😀
Coming to the Matrix Biolage Advanced Fiberstrong Strengthening shampoo and conditioner I was using later on..
Shampoo claims and usage:
MRP: Rs.270/- for 200ml, Rs.485/- for 400ml
Ingredients:
Conditioner claims and usage:
MRP: Rs220/- for 98g, Rs.380/- for 196g
Ingredients:
I like the packaging in gray and green…the shampoo foams well and cleanses hair well..I normally see hair falling during shampooing too..but with this range, the hair fall during shampooing was very less.
The conditioner is not very creamy and moisturising..its light in texture and easy to use and rinses off easily since not very rich.
I see volume and strength in my hair and less hair fall too, but my hair is not soft and smooth which I generally prefer. Maybe its coz of the conditioner, I do like the shampoo though. I would recommend this range for fine,limp hair which faces a lot of hair fall.
If you have tried many hair fall shampoos and conditioners and nothing has worked for you, give this range a try ! I am sure you will not regret. And also try and include the Intra-Cylane strengthening leave-in-Cream with it. I have not used that..but that would give better results together.
The Fiberstrong Treatment is surely worth a try..and at that price, its quiet worth it too..your hair does need some strengthening apart from the regular haircuts and styling !

Have you tried the Matrix Biolage Advanced Fiberstrong Treatment or Range ?
P.S: I was offered the service and products for review, but it has not affected my opinion.

Broad UVA and UVB protection
MRP: Rs.2050/- for 200ml
How to use it:
30 minutes before exposure, apply uniformly and in sufficient quantity
Reapply frequently in case of prolonged exposure, and after swimming.
Using this product should not encourage the user to prolong sun exposure.
Avoid exposure between midday and 4pm (maximal sunshine)
Avoid solar exposure for child between 0 and 3 years
Use clothing protection
Ingredients:
A sunscreen in a spray bottle..I have tried the Lotus SPF50 Spray before and it was my HG. I loved it a lot..so I was expecting this to fare well too.
Coming to the packaging, I love the bright orange packaging..and the cap shuts tight..the spray is good enough..but takes a lot of sprays to cover one part of the body too.
It has a milky kind of texture and is quite runny..you cannot assume the qty you are using since they are just sprayed and you would never realise..if its the 1/4 th teaspoon rule of sunscreen for face and neck each..and 1/2 teaspoon per arm, coz you just spray and blend.
Also, it is not completely light and does give a shiny look to the face..and leaves a whitish cast too. Needs lot of powdering. I mostly use it for arms and legs..and very rarely at times for face.
The main test of it was when I went for the Beauty and The Blogger show. I was carrying this with me..and the previous day after seeing the shoot in the sun and getting burned, the next day I made sure I went to my room especially to apply sunscreen on my arms and legs. I used it all over my hands and legs, could’nt use it on the face as the makeup was done..and somehow I forgot my neck :whyy: :pullshair:
I was out in the scorching sun from 11 to 3-3.30 directly under the sun with no protection whatsoever and we were literally burning all over. My hands and legs got 2 shades darker but my neck got burnt badly and it got 4-5 shades darker! So, thankfully, even though I did not reapply and do not know if I covered each and every area well with enough sunscreen, my hands and legs were somewhat saved coz of this ! I get tanned very very easily..and I have been cursing myself a lot for forgetting my neck 🙁 Still do and would do so for months, till the tan goes away completely..looks difficult :/
Thats one spray qty
I do like the fact that is has broad UVA and UVB protection and offers SPF50+ though..not that we need it regularly..but times as such, we definitely do!
Pros:
1. Did not clog pores or sweat me out.
2. Has thermal spring water and beneficial sunscreen actives.
3. SPF50+
4. Helped my skin from getting burned or severely tanned.
5. Nice bright packaging and cap shuts tight.
6. Claims to give very high protection against the sun.
Cons:
1. Not very travel friendly..a little bulky and I do not see a smaller version of it.
2. Does give some shine..and a whitish cast.
3. Very expensive!
Overall, I would say, if you are someone who stays out in the sun for a long time and need very high protection or you get tanned easily like me, this is the only savior! Definitely required for us! But if you have oily skin or do not stay out much in the sun anyways, you can do with your normal sunscreen and skip this.
It also comes in emulsion and cream form..I have not tried those. But considering the very high protection calimed and a savior against tanning, I would say try those too and go for either one whichever you are comfortable with.
Rating:
Quality: 3.75/5
Value for money: 3.5/5
Availability: 3.5/5
Overall rating: 3.75/5
Would I buy it again: Maybe..not very sure considering the heavy price tag!
Have you tried Avene Very High Protection Spray SPF50+ ?

• Gel cleanser (Lakme Professional Cleansing Gel) followed by an enzymatic based scrub for exfoliation (They use Christine Valmy Vegetal Peel– Bromelin, Papaya, Pineapple)
• A mixture of Lactic acid (Lakme Professional- contains Alpha Hydroxy Acids) along with other actives (Christine Valmy Special Cream 11) are mixed together and applied to desquamate cells and help better penetration.
• The skin is neutralized by a skin toner. (Lakme Professional)
2. REVIVE
• Pure Argan oil (Moroccanoil) is applied to the clean skin with gentle pressure point massage for 10 minutes followed by Gold peel off masque. (Lakme Professional-Lemon, cucumber, green tea, vitamin C)
• Skin instantly feels fresh, hydrated and nourished once the masque is peeled off.
• It’s later cleansed with a toner to remove the residues of the masque.
3. RENEW
•To finish the experience, few drops of the Argan oil is applied on the skin as a moisturizer, followed by Moisture Finish Vit E Suncreen. (Lakme Sunscreen)
I had gone for trying out this facial at the Lakme Salon, Bandra..and at first I was a little skeptic of argan oil on my face..but the procedure as a whole sounded good. The girl I was attended by, explained the whole treatment to me in detail. She told me its a hydrating facial and it repairs the skin..but that does not mean people with oily skin cannot go for this facial since it helps with Grade 1 acne too…only if you have too many pimples and Grade 3 acne, they would avoid doing this facial on you.
It helps in cell regeneration, improves skin’s elasticity and healing acne scars, etc making you skin more softer, clearer and supple.
At first, the skin was cleansed followed by a enzyme based vegetal peel. Then, lactic used mixed with Special Cream 11 is applied all over as a pack..there can be mild tingling here since the lactic acid has AHA’s. Its followed by a toner and Morocaanoil..which is massaged all over the face for better penetration..the 10 minutes massage for the head, face and neck is the best part here..deeply relaxing..I did bet you would sleep!
Then, a gold peel off masque is applied till it sets dry and is peeled off..followed at the end by few drops of Moroccanoil and sunscreen (for protection since your skin is peeled coz of lactic acid and AHA’s)
I saw my skin looked fresh and hydrated and there was a glow. But, the skin looked even more better after 1-2 days. The effect stays for a week or so. Also, the dead skin cells are gone, so you get rid of the tan too. I had gone for this service before..and now I am so tanned that I need it again 😀
Before- After
I am not sure if you can see much difference in this before-after pic coz of the lighting there.
I think its totally worth a try before your special event or something..though its priced at a higher side for your normal regular monthly facial if you go for one..but worth a investment once in 5-6 months.
My only issue was they used Moroccanoil on the face..I mean I agree its pure and all,but its a hair product for a reason. I would have much preferred if they did use pure argan oil. Also, I got a small pimple after a day or two..so since the face is cleansed of dirt, etc..sometimes it first reacts and one may break out as it all comes out and up.But soon the skin settles and you would see good results.
Some precautions to be taken:
Do not thread or bleach 4-5 days before going for this facial and 7 days after.
Do not use any creams, serums,etc on your face after this facial for 7 days..just a mild face wash and sunscreen.
Use enough sunscreen if you going to be out in the sun, after this facial, since it involves a peel.
Ya, I guess if you follow these basic things, you are good to go. If you have tried this facial or if you try now, do let me know your comments and views below.
Have you/Will you try the new Moroccan Liquid Gold Ritual at Lakme Salon ?
P.S: Services were provided complimentary but that has not affected my review.
