Colorbar Kiss Proof Lip Stain Mauve Dusk Review, Swatches, FOTD

Colorbar Kiss Proof Lip Stain Mauve Dusk Review, Swatches, FOTD

Colorbar Kiss Proof Lip Stain Mauve Dusk Review, Swatches, FOTD

What the Company claims: Revolutionary unique No-Transfer Lip stain formula glides on flawlessly and delivers impressively long-lasting, velvety color that will not transfer and stay all day long.

The weightlessness of the formula will provide you with all-day comfort – wear lip makeup and a flawless look.

Features and Benefits:

No -Transfer liquid lip stain
Weightless on application
Long Lasting
Matte finish with creamy application
Enriched with Vitamin E providing antioxidant properties
Color does not bleed on lips
Preservative free

Shades Available: 8

Ingredients:

MRP: Rs.900/- for 6.5ml

To start with the packaging, I love the silver steel gloss like tube but it is see through in the middle where brand name goes and you can see the shade from the see through.

The doe foot applicator is perfect for application, even on the sharp edges and for defining the cupid’s bow. It is thick, pigmented cream in texture but settles within a minute to smudge proof, matte color.

I love the fact that it is comfortable on the lips and not at all drying. I have dry lips and I have a tough time with matte lipsticks usually, but this by far has been the most comfortable matte lip stain for me.

The pigmentation is so amazing that I just need to take the product out once to cover the lips completely. I never have dipped the applicator again for more product and I feel this 6.5 ml tube would last me really, really long.

Coming to the main part for me, the staying power. It stays whole day and survives meals, tea, coffee, everything. It fades a bit by the end of the day but doesn’t budge. Also it comes off easily with a makeup remover.

L- Just Applied, R- Matte within a minute

I have the shade ‘Mauve Dusk’ which is a beautiful mauve dusky rose pink, it looks more pinker in sunlight and more mauve indoors/dim light as you can see in both the pics below.  I absolutely adore this shade and have been wearing this quite often since the time I got this.

Here it is on me..

It is definitely on the expensive side, but I would say the quantity is 6.5ml which is more than the usual 4ml in such matte lip creams/tints. I would have preferred less quantity and less price, which would have made it more economical.

But quality wise, it is just amazing! I highly recommend it!

I just wanted to add something here, I have seen mixed reviews of this lip stain and 2-3 bloggers found it very drying. I am not sure if the formulation is different for different shades, but try it before buying coz Rs.900/- is a lot to invest before trying.

Vichy Purete Thermale Spa 3 in 1 Calming Cleansing Micellar Solution Review

Vichy Purete Thermale Spa 3 in 1 Calming Cleansing Micellar Solution Review

What the Company claims: Cleans, removes make-up and soothes in one go.
SKIN TYPE: Normal
Product CONCERN: For women with sensitive eyes and skin.

Micellar technology captures impurities like a magnet to perfectly clean and remove make-up from sensitive skin without rubbing or rinsing.Gently cleansed, sensitive skin is perfectly clean with no discomfort or tightness.

The non-comedogenic, hypoallergenic formula has been tested under dermatological and ophthalmological control. Formulated for sensitive skin and eyes with physiological pH. Enriched with Vichy Thermal Spa Water, soothing, fortifying and regenerating.
The texture is kind to your sensitive skin and gently eliminates impurities and all traces of make-up. With no need to rinse off, this treatment limits rubbing for gentle make-up removal.

How to use: Apply using a cotton pad to face and eyes. Do not rinse off.

MRP: Rs.990/- for 200ml

Ingredients:

Another Micellar Cleansing water, remember I mentioned this Vichy one in the Bioderma review HERE.

Vichy Purete Thermale Spa 3 in 1 Calming Cleansing Micellar Solution (quite a mouthful) comes in this rectangular bottle packaging with a flip cap. The plastic bottle is slightly big and not very travel friendly.

I have been using this since quite some time now. It removes all of my makeup easily, especially melts the foundation and removes the lipstick in one go.

My only issue was the eye area again 🙁 Sadly how much ever I try and shut my eyes tight while removing my eye makeup, some remover seeps into the eye and the eyes start burning. Thankfully, this did not burn my eyes as much, but yes I couldn’t remove my kajal on the waterline with this too, as with other micellar waters.

Before (Worn Out Makeup) – After

The best thing is you need not wash your face, it is completely non sticky and non greasy. It is just like water, that melts all your makeup and removes it all. It is very calming and soothing and perfect for sensitive skin too.

Compared to Bioderma, this is slightly expensive. (Bioderma Sensibio is Rs.860/- fro 250ml) But both worked almost the same way for me. If you cannot get your hands on the Bioderma one or want to try something new, I would highly recommend you try this Vichy Purete Thermale Spa Micellar Solution.

Overall I would say, apart from my eye area, I loved it using on the face and it made removing makeup quite an ease. I would have preferred if it would come in smaller bottles and different variants.

Garnier White Complete Fairness Face Wash & Cream Review: #7DayGarnierChallenge

Garnier White Complete Fairness Face Wash & Cream Review: #7DayGarnierChallenge

Hi guys,

So I took up the #7DayGarnierChallenge last week where I had to use the Garnier White Complete Fairness Face Wash and the Garnier Multi Action Fairness Cream for 7 days and see the results.

I finished my 7 days yesterday and here is my review.

About the face wash: Exposure to sun, pollution and harsh environmental conditions makes skin appear dull & dark.

Garnier White Complete Fairness Face wash is an effective daily face wash that helps you discover clear, radiant, and even complexion.
You get one tone fairer in one wash!

Ingredients:

MRP: Rs.140/- for 100g

About the cream: Get 3 tones fairer skin, in just 7 days

Enriched with natural ingredients, this formula provides instant whitening and long lasting fairness. Your skin looks even, feels fresh and moisturized with a natural glow.

Multi Action fairness cream for glowing skin :
1.Instant Whitening – provides instant whitening
2.Sun Protection with SPF 19 PA+++ – Protects skin from further darkening by harmful UVA and UVB sun rays
3.Long Lasting Fairness – Fairer skin over time with regular usage

Dermatologically tested – suitable for all skin types.

MRP: Rs.160/- for 40g

Ingredients:

I don’t generally review skin care before testing it for a minimum of 21-25 days but since this was a specific challenge for 7 days, I am doing it after exact 7 days.

I have used the previous Garnier Multi Action Fairness Cream and did not like that much, this new formula is quite better in terms of smell and texture and does not give that much of a whitish cast as the old formula did. The old formula used to just sit on the skin and not get absorbed, this is much better and does get absorbed into the skin. This provides SPF19 PA+++ protection too.

It comes in a small jar that is easy to carry and convenient to use. It is a white colored cream, not very thick but normal cream form. It is not very sticky or greasy and gets absorbed instantly. It does not hydrate much, girls with dry skin might need a richer moisturizer especially in winters. I think this will work better for oily to combination skin.

It comes with a shade card at the side of the carton and it did not give me 3 tones fairer skin obviously, but I did see brighter, matte skin and was a tone lighter which I guess was my tan that has now thankfully gone away coz of this combination.

Coming to the face wash, I love it. It is a white colored cream face wash which foams a lot. It removes all the dirt, basic makeup and gives refreshed, brighter skin. It foams really well, does not leave a slimy feeling behind and the skin feels super clean and translucent.

It is quite affordable and comes in smaller packs too, both the face wash and the cream.

L-R: Cream & Face Wash

I would say the combination of the face wash and cream definitely made my skin brighter and helped me get rid of the tan in just 7 continuous days and made it a shade it was originally. Both the cream and the face wash have lemon essence, which is the main ingredient that helps get rid of tan and brightens and tones the skin.

I challenge you all to use the Garnier White Complete Multi Action Fairness Cream for just 7 days and let me know what you feel about it, either here in the comments below or anywhere on my social media tagging me with the #7DayGarnierChallenge.

Get your free sample here http://7daygarnierchallenge.com/, fill in your details and my name at the end and after 7 days, you can share your experience. One of you whose answer we like wins a surprise Garnier hamper!

August Fab Bag Unboxing & Review

August Fab Bag Unboxing & Review

Hi guys,

I am back with another Fab Bag unboxing and review video.

Fab Bag is a monthly subscription bag where you get 4 (sometimes a 5th bonus) products.

Read my previous Fab Bag reviews:

August month of Fab Bag is ‘Cast A Spell’ edition, which is Fairy Tale and Princessy theme.

MRP: Rs.599/- for 1 month

This time it is a metallic pink textured bag, a pretty bag though not something you can carry out, but good for travel yet again. All the Fab Bags are very multi-purpose and perfect for travel.

Contents of my August Fab Bag:

  • Divo Eyelash Curler- Full size (Rs.125/-)
  • Fran Wilson MoodMatcher Green Lipstick- Full size (Rs.590/-)
  • Roots Professional Morocvita Oil- 5ml (Full size Rs.2000/- for 120ml)
  • Ital Veloce Body Mist Summer Snowflakes -12ml (Rs.499/- for 210ml)
  • Bioderma Photoderm MAT SPF30- 5ml x 2 (Rs.1330/- for 40ml)

Overall, I would say I am quite happy with the eyelash curler and the moodmatcher lipstick, though it is not obviously worth Rs.590/-. The Ital Veloce Body Mist smells amazing and will be in my handbag now onwards.

I love the Roots Morocvita oil too, 5ml serum should last some time and I have another similar 5ml sample. Not very happy with the Bioderma small sample of sunscreen, but I am glad that at least they have included two samples coz one would be a total waste. I like Bioderma as a brand though and happy with the products.

I prefer deluxe sized samples and full sized products in a subscription box/bag. Though its a good bag, I would have loved a bigger sample of the Morocvita oil and Bioderma sunscreen, or maybe some other deluxe sized samples.

I would still recommend this month’s bag for a good mix of products and also an eyelash curler! Do book your bag for August if you haven’t already.

Have you tried the Fab Bag? What did you get in this month’s Fab Bag?

How To Click The Perfect Selfie

How To Click The Perfect Selfie

Hey guys,

Just yesterday I was thinking how a decade ago we were super happy with our 3210 and 3310 cell phones where all we could do was talk and send/receive SMS.  Coming back to today, where apps like Whatsapp and Facebook/Twitter are a necessity and taking pictures everyday on our smart phone is a daily practice, that goes without saying.

I think our generation on an average clicks about 10 pictures daily on their smart phone, especially selfies! And if you are a blogger, you have to click 6-7 pictures at least to get that perfect selfie.

Now makeup and hair obviously play a very important role in your selfie if you are a girl. Your hair need not be all polished and glam, but a simple hairstyle and no frizz is perfect. When it comes to makeup, bright lips and evened base is all you need, you can also define your eyes with a liner/kohl if you feel like.

Another most important thing for a perfect selfie is lighting! If you have good lighting, don’t miss a chance to click selfie 😀 Don’t face the sun directly as that would lead to over brightness. You can stand opposite the window, or you can take a selfie in the car.

I absolutely love car selfies. Since it is covered from the top there is no chance of direct sunlight and the car window gives you required amount of lighting. I never miss a chance to click a selfie while in the car. Pro tip: Always hold the camera a bit higher than your face level.

And one thing which is absolutely essential is of course a good smart phone with an excellent camera. Now my phone has a terrible front camera and hence I have to use the rear camera which is not very selfie friendly obviously as I cannot see the perfect angle or how the picture is getting clicked.

I have been on the lookout for a phone with a good front camera since a long time. I stumbled upon the Asus Zenfone Selfie and I am blown away!! Why, you ask? 13MP front and rear camera and dual flash on both the cameras, 0.3s Laser Ultra Fast Auto-Focus rear camera.

The front camera has f/2.2-aperture, 88-degree wide-angle lens and with the unique Selfie Panorama mode, you will be able to shoot selfies with an outlook of up to 140 degrees — so everything and everyone is part of your shot!! More group selfies, yay! And no one will be missed out or half cut now onwards 🙂

Not only that, the front camera also has HDR mode, so every selfie can be a perfect selfie now and if not, we can always use the Beautification Mode 😉 The Beautification Mode enhances your features and corrects blemishes all in real time, you can adjust the effectiveness of the features and just go clicking.

Macro focusing down to 6cm means perfect product shots including the yummy food pictures. It also has a rear selfie button which now makes it easier to click without shaking the phone or blurring the image.

Read more HERE

It comes in super pretty colors like Pure White, Chic Pink and Aqua Blue. I am so loving the Aqua Blue. I don’t think I have to stress more on how this is perfect phone for selfies and clicking pictures!! Clicking pictures are an essential in my life, being a blogger and I definitely need a phone like this. I am surely getting this. What about you?

The Body Shop Satsuma Body Sorbet Review

The Body Shop Satsuma Body Sorbet Review

What the Company claims: Scoop an industry first with this cool body moisturiser, infused with zingy satsuma scent! Our breakthrough sorbet texture instantly melts into skin for a frosty burst of fresh moisture. Light and fast-absorbing,leaves body instantly moisturised upto 24 hours of hydration.

MRP: Rs.795/- for 200ml

How to use: Glide onto skin and enjoy the frosted moisture sensation all over your body. Insider’s tip: Put your Body Sorbet in the fridge for an even more refreshing moisture sensation

Variants available: Strawberry (Fruity), Satsuma (Citrusy), Moringa (Floral)

Ingredients:

The Body Shop launched their Body Sorbets in summers which is the apt season to launch this product. It is an industry first, i.e. no other brand has a product like ‘Body Sorbet’.

It comes in the long tube packaging with a flip cap and comes in this 200ml size only. It is slightly huge and not very travel friendly.

I have tried a lot of Strawberry products from The Body Shop and wanted to try some other variant. Moringa was not something I liked the smell of and so I went with Satsuma and I am glad! I absolutely love the citrus burst of Satsuma, it smells like ‘Fresh Orange Juice’.

I avoid heavy and rich moisturisers in summers as they make my skin feel more oily and sweaty, Body Sorbet was a savior in summers as it gave hydration was so light and refreshing that it got absorbed in a jiffy without any greasiness on the skin.

It is light peach in color and thick gel like in texture but very light and water based.

Also when it was scorching hot, I did keep it in the fridge as mentioned in the tip above, and it felt so awesome. Now since the summers have gone and it’s the monsoons, I don’t keep it in the fridge. I am still using it as in Mumbai as it is never cold and mostly summers here throughout the year except 2 months.

It is slightly on the expensive side of course as around 800 bucks is a lot for 200ml body moisturizer, but you don’t need a lot with this as it spreads well. And also it does not provide 24 hours hydration obviously. This will only work in summers and for someone with normal to oily skin.

Overall I would say, try this in summers or if you live in a hot,humid city. You will absolutely love this. I will not recommend it for people with very dry skin as this will not suffice the moisturisation your skin needs.

More on their site here: http://myglamm.com/ or Call 1 800 3000 4526 to order a MyGlamm service.

Recently I got a chance to try out MyGlamm services and I haven’t been to a salon for any services in like ages, so I was like why not. The best part is, it is all in the comfort of your home!

I actually wanted to try a facial and I selected the Forest Essentials Facial, but later on I was informed that they don’t have the Forest Essentials facial yet and it will take 10-15 days for that. They offered me the O3+ facial but for my skin type, they suggested the Whitening Facial and I am not into whitening,so was not keen on that.

I went with a basic O3+ clean up and Spa Manicure/Pedicure. All you need to do is select the service and fix your timing and location. They call to confirm your appointment. I was told on call that the clean up and manicure would be done by the lady and the pedicure would be done by the guy, at 4 pm and 5 pm respectively.

MyGlamm is based at Lower Parel, so the artists were coming all the way from there. The lady arrived 15 minutes late and she apologized for that and it was ok since it was raining a lot that day.

She set up everything first and then started with the clean up. I saw the O3+ products used and again it was all the whitening range being used in the clean up too, the very same reason I did not go for the O3+ facial. This was only mentioned as clean up and I had not idea that it involved whitening products :/

O3+ Products used for Clean Up- Step wise Left to Right

She started with cleansing, followed with applying a microdermabrasion peel and massaged it for some time. It was followed by a steam and extracting the blackheads/whiteheads, followed by a tonic/toner. She then massaged the face, neck and shoulders with the massage cream for about 7-8 minutes and a face mask was applied at the end.

The guy had already arrived at my place while the clean up was going on, and they started with my mani-pedi while I had the mask on my face.

Pedicure Tub

I really liked the manicure/pedicure too, as it was quite detailed and nicely done. Everything from scrubbing to get rid of dead skin, cuticle cream, massage cream to foot scrub and foot mask was taken care of. I liked the fact that they had individual packs for every cream and both had a separate kit. The entire mani/pedi kit was also well arranged.

She was carrying her threading kit too and asked me if I would like to get my eyebrows done, so I thought let me just get my extra hair removed. So she did my eyebrows and upper lip too. Only thing is I got a red bump on my forehead which did not subside for 2 days :/

My hands post manicure 🙂

I was happy with the clean up and mani-pedi and could see visible results and difference. My hands and feet were quite soft and well moisturised with no trace of dead or dry skin at all.

The process of clean up and mani-pedi took a little more than 3 hours which was unexpected. I thought it would be maximum done in 2 hours.

Some things I liked:

  • The entire idea of getting the services done in the comfort of your home is quite nice, and saves a lot of time and energy.
  • Easy to book an appointment
  • The services were nicely done and I could see visible results.
  • The products used are of a very good quality.
  • Artists are well trained to ask if a customer is comfortable and how to go about things.

Some things I thought could have been better:

  • They informed me that a guy would be coming for pedicure, I believe they should have asked me if I am comfortable with a guy and should have given me an option. I would have not had a problem before, but now since I live alone, I was not the most comfortable.
  • While the lady was 15 minutes late, the guy was 15 minutes early and I was not comfortable with the idea of me being in a disposable gown inside my bedroom and an unknown guy at my place in the other room. I think he could have called before coming and accordingly come a bit later.
  • I had a fresh shoe bite and despite telling him 3-4 times, he was always touching at the same place which was quite painful.
  • If an estimate of time could have been given beforehand, coz 3 hours 15 minutes was a long time.
  • The water in the pedicure tub took a long time to heat up
  • He forgot the base coat on the toe nails.

Overall, I am quite happy with this initiative, and when MyGlamm would be available on app, it would be even more convenient. There one gets to see every artist, their experience, availability and book accordingly.

Here is the current MyGlamm services rate card:

They are priced a little more than the normal parlors, almost equal to Lakme or Enrich chain of salons. But you get to do it at your time and place.

Update: 07/02/2017- My recent experience has not been good. I am trying from the past one month to book a mani-pedi and all their spa artists are unavailable! No point of offering services if artists are not available. If you get an appointment, you may try their services or else just leave and try some other services as I would not advise waiting 1-2 months!

Have you tried any at-home salon services like this? What do you think of MyGlamm?

P.S: Services were offered by the brand but that has not affected my review.
