Dove Proves that Beauty is a State of mind through Dove: Patches

DOVE PROVES THAT BEAUTY IS A STATE OF MIND

I went for the launch of Dove: Patches campaign launch and the panel discussion at Olive Bar and Kitchen, Mahalaxmi 2 days back. Read more about it below.

Dove launched Dove: Patches, the latest real beauty experiment that illustrates that beauty is a state of mind.

Author Kiran Manral, Global Brand Manager South Asia Dove Nilushi Jayatileke, Actress Konkona Sen Sharma and Chef Pooja Dhingra were present at a Panel Discussion at an exclusive premiere of the film.

New Social Experiment Illustrates the Ongoing Conflict Women Have with Recognizing their Beauty

Inside every woman is the power to feel beautiful, confident and radiant, according to a first-of-its-kind social experiment conducted by Dove. Carried out in response to research revealing that an alarming 80% of women feel anxious about the way they look1, the study highlights how the right state of mind can unlock a powerful feeling of beauty that lives inside all women. The results are documented in the short film Dove: Patches on YouTube.com/DoveIndia.

The experiment was guided by psychologist and New York Times best-selling author, Dr. Ann Kearney-Cooke (Ph.D., Counseling Psychology) who has spent thirty years conducting scientific research around women’s body image and self-esteem.

During the experiment Dr. Kearney-Cooke invited the participants to wear a custom-made “beauty patch” for two weeks, which – would help them feel more beautiful. The women were then invited to keep a personal account of their life-changing experience throughout the two week period. All the women agreed that wearing the “beauty patch” helped to improve their self-esteem and to change their personal lives in ways that they had not imagined.

At the end of the experiment, however, it is revealed that the “beauty patch” contained nothing and that the power of believing in their own beauty influenced feeling beautiful.

“When a woman feels beautiful, she radiates happiness and confidence, which inspires her life in a significant way,” said Dr. Kearney-Cooke. “These women, like so many others, struggle to recognize their own beauty and it severely affects their daily lives. This ground-breaking experiment was designed to illustrate that beauty is a state of mind and that the power to feel beautiful comes from within.”

Beauty is a State of Mind

Throughout the Dove: Patches film, it becomes clear how low self-esteem affects many elements of the women’s lives. As the women become more confident about the way they look, personal relationships flourish and they develop a more optimistic outlook on their daily routine. One of the women who participated shared that she felt ashamed of her arms and had always avoided shopping. A few days into the experiment, she started to feel more beautiful and invited her daughter to go shopping for the first time. The two of them spent an unforgettable day together and they tried on dresses that she had never dreamed of wearing. Dove hopes that all of the women’s inspirational stories featured in the Dove: Patches film will serve as powerful examples and encourage all women to develop a stronger relationship with their own beauty.

“We hear from thousands of women every day about how their complicated relationship with beauty affects their overall confidence and happiness,” said George Koshy, General Manager- Skin Cleansing. “By illustrating through the Dove: Patches film that a positive state of mind and openness can help them feel more beautiful, we hope to inspire all women and help change the way they see themselves.”

Dove invites all women to create a world where beauty is a source of confidence, not anxiety. When women look and feel their best, they feel happier, and Dove believes it is important for women to see the beauty in themselves so that they can inspire the next generation. The brand has set a goal of reaching 15 million young lives with self-esteem programming by the end of 2015 and has reached over 12 million to date.

Watch the Dove: Patches film at YouTube.com/DoveIndia and join the conversation at #BeautyIs.

I personally loved the movie..how each and every one of us can point out 1000 things in us we do not like..and how one patch made a psychological difference and made them feel beautiful in 2 weeks !

Did you watch the movie ? Do share your thoughts below..would love to hear them 🙂

March My Envy Box Review

Hey everyone, if you don’t already know about My Envy Box..read HERE
My Jan box HERE
My Feb box HERE
So coming to the recent March box which I received few days back..its a peach colored box again..they had planned a nice orchid color..the Pantone color for this year..but due to some issues..they could not use those boxes.

And also in this March month’s box, 10 lucky people have got Pipa Bella jewellery ! Are you that lucky one ? I am not :/

MRP: Rs.850/- per box every month

You know how the products come inside this cute colorful cloth pouch..and there are cards for the products’ name and discount coupon to buy the full sized from their site,if you liked the samples.

This time there was an additional card of 20% off for Pipa+Bella jewellery..
Products I received :
  • Eminence Organics Sour Cherry Whipped Moisturizer
  • Issey Miyake Leau Dissey Homme Sport samples
  • Narciso Rodriguez for her samples (Smells amazing !)
  • Avene Thermal Very High Protection Sunscreen SPF50 (5ml)
  • Rene Furterer Okara Protect Color Radiance Enhancing Shampoo (15ml)
  • Innisfree Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask samples
The two perfume samples are tooo tiny..I would have liked small vials instead..I have never colored my hair..so the Rene Furterer Color Protect Shampoo is of not much use..I already have the full sized Innisfree Volcanic Clay Pore Mask..so nothing new to try there..only loved the Sour Cherry Moisturizer and Avene Sunscreen (5ml) also lasted about 3 uses.
 
I loved the Feb box the most..not too impressed with this one..I hope April has something better in store..I am waiting for those new makeup brands 😀

Shades Available:

Maybelline came up with these pretty pink lipsticks called Pink Alert just before Valentine’s Day..and these were so perfectly launched for the apt day.

They come in pretty pink packaging..the packaging is the same as the Maybelline Colorsensational range..but prettier and pinker.

They are creamy and quite pigmented..and stay on for 4-5 hours..even after drinking and eating proper dinner..the color had just faded a little..I am quite impressed by the staying power.

POW1 is a blue based neon pink..a super bright pink..that does not even show the true color in picture..but looks amazing in person..MAC Pink Pigeon dupe..but do not wear this shade when flash is going to be used..I did the mistake..it makes you look ghastly with flash.



Here it is on moi..

Pros: 

1. The Packaging is pretty. 
2. They are very creamy and glide on well. 
3. Nicely pigmented and stays on better than other creamy lipsticks…they stay for around 4-5 hours and do not fade completely. 
4. Amazing pinks..I actually loved all 4 pinks ! This one is for pink lovers..
5. Economical. 
 
Cons: 
1. Pow1 looks ghastly with flash.
2. Looks blotchy when layered quiet a few times..you need to remove the previous first and reapply for touch ups.
 
Overall, this range has great pinks..and there is one for everyone..there is a neon pink, coral pink, fuchsia pink..you will find your favorite pink or pinks 😉 I am going to buy POW2 next..I love that one too..Highly Recommended !

Sleek MakeUP Garden of Eden Palette Review, Swatches

Sleek MakeUP i-Divine Garden of Eden Palette Review, Swatches
 
I had mentioned about the Sleek MakeUP’s new Garden of Eden launch HERE.
 
I finally received this palette and the blushes..after a long wait ! And sadly, I also had to pay customs on it :/ 🙁 But anyways, coming back to the palette.
 
 
It comes in the normal Sleek MakeUP palette black packaging..and also with the regular mirror and a two sided sponge applicator..
 
RRP £7.99
 
The cover also had instructions behind on how to use the shades, this time.
 
 
Sleek MakeUP says: Enhance what Mother Nature gave you with the striking, beautiful colours of Sleek MakeUP’s new Garden of Edeni-Divine Palette. 
 
 
An earthy, nature inspired palette that echoes the hues of a stunning tropical jungle with dusky purples, earthy browns and organic greens.
 
Garden of Eden i-Divine delivers the iconic 12high pigmented eye shadows associated with Sleek MakeUP once again, with shades such as Paradise On Earth, Eve’s Kiss and Gates Of Eden. Each fresh, vibrant shade stays true from day to night and blends together beautifully to create any look you desire from soft and subtle, to dazzling and dramatic,suited to all skin tones. This is a beautiful palette made up of an array of earthy, nature inspired hues that echo a stunning tropical jungle with dusky purples, earthy browns and organic greens.
 
The swatches are all one swipe.
 
 
 

Shades are :

Gates of Eden : Warm Coppery orange gold
Eve’s Kiss : Metallic lilac pink
Paradise on Earth : Warm taupe purple
Python : Again a deeper taupe brown
Forbidden : Matte grey with gold shimmer..but dry in texture..not that pigmented.
Flora : Matte brick reddish brown..again a little dry
 
 
 
Entwined : Matte Medium taupe brown with gold shimmer..little dry and chalky
Adam’s Apple : Matte light apple green
Fig : Light metallic green gold
Evergreen : Metallic mid green
Fauna : Metallic forest green
Tree of Life : Matte forest green

 
It has the perfect mix of neutrals and greens..and taupe lovers like me would love the taupes it offers..I am not a fan of green shadows as such..but sometimes the deeper forest green ones like Tree of Life make for a super sexy green smokey eye !
 
Pigmentation wise, as usual the metallic ones were amazingly pigmented..but the matte ones were drier and needed layering..With a primer, these stay for 8-9 hours.
 
Overall, I would say if you love greens and taupes, then this palette is specially made for you 😀 But its a good mix of neutrals and brights. Recommended.
 
It launched on 15th Jan..and is available on sleekmakeup.com and Superdrug stores..
Have you tried the Sleek MakeUP Garden of Eden Palette ?

February My Envy Box Review

If you follow me on Instagram, you must have seen My Envy Box pictures I had posted..I am loving this month’s My Envy Box..
If you don’t know about My Envy Box, read HERE.
And plus there is one bonus product this time..so there are six in total..there is one Givenchy perfume sample for the man in your life..in this Valentine month..and the Valentin Special box.
I loved my peach colored box. Check my January box HERE. Also loved the colorful cloth bag it came in..
I also got this letter..which says if you invite one friend and she joins, you get one month’s box for free 😀 And also the boxes in the coming months..very interesting ones..and the new makeup brands that are going to be a part..I am expecting Givenchy :p
MRP: Rs.850/-
The products I received:
  • Givenchy Gentleman Only (Smells Awesome!)
  • Givenchy Dahlia Noir (Loved it too)
  • Thalgo Collagen Cream- 2ml x 2
  • Rene Furterer Carthame Moisturizing Milk Shampoo- 15ml
  • Eminence Organics Chocolate Mousse Hydration Masque
  • Forest Essentials Sugared Rose Petal Lip Balm- Full size – 5g
The best part in the box for me was the Forest Essentials lip balm..it smells amazing..and the full size balm costs Rs.595/- which almost covers the 3/4th price of the box..loved both the Givenchy perfumes too..and the Eminence Organics Chocolate Masque. I would have liked the Crabtree & Evelyn Hand Cream instead of the Thalgo Collagen Cream and/or Rene Furterer Shampoo though.
You also get cards for 10% off on all these products on their site. Also, there is a special Givenchy consultation, makeover and a surprise gift card.
Overall I loved the box and products..except for 1-2 here and there as mentioned. But I am surely hooked to it ! Highly recommended. You can get yours HERE.

Lakme Eyeconic Kajal Green, Blue, Brown, White Review, Swatches

Lakme Eyeconic Kajal Green, Blue, Brown,White Review, Swatches
If you follow me my facebook and/or twitter..you would be knowing how I got the box torn from one side..and the pen drive was missing..
 
And instead of the grey, I got two green shades..
 
So lets review the four I have..
What the Company claims: Reinvent your everyday look with the all new Lakme Eyeconic White. With a deep colored stroke in an easy twist up format, it gives your eyes a long-lasting, Eyeconic look throughout the day.Smudge proof, water proof and dermatologically tested; Lakme’s Eyeconic White accentuates your eyes and makes them look bigger and brighter.

Key Features:

Smudge proof
Water Proof, Lasts up to 10 hrs
Safe for eyes
Convenient Twist- up format
 
MRP: Rs.250/- for 1.3g


It comes in the same retractable kajal packaging as Lakme Eyeconic in Black or other kajals in the market..its a tough competition in kajals category, I tell you..

 
White is a pure white shade
 
Brown is a dark chocolate brown
 
Green is a deep forest green
 
Blue is a light forest green (?) (I have no idea why the blue is a green..Lakme has released blue which is almost similar to the green..just a tad bit lighter..I had first thought I got three greens..but it was named blue..and when I saw online, I found that their blue is just like the green..I wish it was a navy blue or a nice peacock or turquoise blue..why the same blue as green, Lakme ?)

Anyways, so here you see only white and brown different..and two similar greens :p

T-B: Brown, Blue, Green, White

These are so super soft..these just break ! Two of the pencils’ tips broke while swatching..and again while trying..I have no idea why these are so soft..do they need to be kept in fridge or something ? It is as it is quite cold..this is only leading to product wastage..and after breaking the tip again and again, you will be hardly left with any product :/

One has to be super careful with this..
 
These do glide on smoothly and are too soft..no tugging or pulling..pigmentation is quite good too..
 
They stay on for 7-8 hours on my upper lashline and for 4-5 hours on my waterline..there was not much smudging..but just that they collect at the edges of the eye..but no raccoon eyes issue..
 
White looks too stark white..I prefer nudes on my waterline..I like using the white in the inner corners of the eyes..
Here I have used brown on my upper and lower lashline and waterline and white slightly in the inner corners..


I like the green one too..

Overall, I would say these are new in the market and colored kajals are a nice thing to have..and budget friendly too..only issue is too much product wastage..and not many shade options..
 
I would recommend the Green and Brown ! And if you like using white on the waterline..White too..

These are formaldehyde, toluene and DBP free and also UV sensitive which is the first..

And these indeed stay for 11 plus days as claimed..I have applied it from more than 10 days…and it has only chipped a little from the tips..
 
Only issue is it takes forever to dry ! Like forever..I waited for sooo long..and still messed up a little..and also takes some time to remove..

But otherwise, these are just perfect..a little on the expensive side..but if you are someone who is always pressed for time..and do not have the time and patience to change nail paints regularly, this is a boon for you !

230 Bonsai is a grass green shade with gold shimmer..

Something which I have never tried till date..quite a different shade..and it looked so fab ! I even received compliments for the shade 😀
 
I lovee the shade Passionate Pink, Blue Slate, French Roast, Sequin, Vintage Rose..I think I love all the shades ! Such unique, interesting and fab shades..but they have released 30 shades in the US and only 16 here..I am disappointed 🙁 I hope they have some good shades for us here too..
 
Highly Recommended !
