December 2015 ‘The Party All Night’ Fab Bag Review

Hi guys,

So I just now received the December Fab Bag and let me tell you it one of their best bags! One of my personal favourites.

Read my previous Fab Bag reviews:

MRP: Rs.699/- per month

It’s ‘The Party All Night’ edition for the party season this month. They had an option to choose one bag of our choice of all the previous bags of 2015 and one product of our choice.

I went with this black heart bag which was their February Valentine’s Special since I did not have this one. And the product I chose is the Spa Ceylon Jasmine Face Masque as I had received the Foot Scrub from Spa Ceylon in October and I wanted to try out this masque.

Products in the bag:

  • Spa Ceylon White Jasmine Facial Masque -50g (Full size: Rs.2150/- for 100g)
  • Sugar Cosmetics Matte As Hell Lip Crayon- Full size (Rs.799/-)
  • Bioderma Sensibio H2O 10ml sample (Rs.599/- for 100ml)
  • Kronokare The Frizz Kiss Cooling Explosion Lip Balm-Full size (Rs.95/-)
  • Aayush Headache Naashak Roll on 2ml bottle (Full size Rs.195/- for 10ml)

They have included Sugar Cosmetics Matte As Hell Lip Crayon which I have reviewed HERE. The full sized one! That itself is priced at Rs.799/- plus it’s own sharperner. I already had the wine shade i.e. Poison Ivy and I was hoping and praying that I do not receive that, they are sending any one of the four shades at random. I really wanted to check out the Holly Golightly i.e. the nude shade as I do not own a nude lip crayon yet.

Another interesting product is the Kronokare Cooling Explosion Lip Balm which is in tube form and has a slanted applicator to directly use on lips and is in the form of clear jelly, but has a strong peppermint smell and as soon as you apply it, you actually feel the cooling explosion on the lips for about 10 minutes. It also claims to be used as a lip primer before using lipsticks, will test that out. But for now, I am really liking it coz my lips are so chapped that they hurt.

I loved the ingredients of the Spa Ceylon White Jasmine Facial Masque and immediately used it. I have this mask and the Kronokare lip balm ON right now while I review the bag 😀 I will do a complete, separate review of the masque after using it a few times.

A Bioderma Sensibio Micellar Water 10ml sample. (Read complete review HERE) This is good to carry for travel but once opened, entire pack needs to be used as you cannot store and 10ml is good for 2-3 uses. But it’s a really nice makeup remover, so good to try out if you haven’t yet, be careful around the eye area though.

I have the Aayush Headache Naashak 10ml full size roll on and it is really good for headaches during cold, congestion and feels quite relieving, this small 2ml roll on is perfect to carry along.

Some also received a Clovia scarf, I am not sure if this bonus product is added randomly or how.

Overall, I have either used all the products in the bag and loved them or really wanted to try them. It’s a full value for money bag this time!! Definitely recommend getting the December bag, your Sugar Cosmetics Lip Crayon will only cover the cost of the bag for you. And for me the Spa Ceylon Jasmine Masque is also about Rs.1075/- additionally. Total value of the products comes to around Rs.2070/- plus the bag for the price of Rs.699/- 🙂

Totally worth it.

Did you get your December Fab Bag? What products did you get? Do let me know in the comments below.

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Micellar Cleansing Water Review

Hi guys,

Today I am reviewing the much raved about Bioderma Sensibio H2O. Bioderma is a French pharmacy brand and most of the Bioderma products are now available in India and they are looking at more distribution soon 🙂 Micellar Cleansing Water is what quite a few brands offer, I have tried the Vichy one too. (Review coming soon). It is basically a water based cleanser/makeup remover.

What the Company claims: Sensitive to intolerant skin. Sensibio H2O is the 1st and only dermatological micellar water perfectly compatible with the skin: its fatty acid esters, the constituent elements of micelles, are similar to the phospholipids of the skin cell membranes and naturally help rebuild the skin’s hydrolipidic film.

Benefits: Combines performance and very high tolerance
Cleanses and removes make-up from the face and eyes
Soothes and clears up irritated skin
Produces a feeling of instant freshness
Non-rinse

Product + :
Even removes water-resistant make-up
One bottle of Sensibio H2O sold around the world every 5 seconds!
Fragrance-free formula
Alcohol-free
Paraben-free
Hypoallergenic

Directions to use: Morning and/or evening – 7 days a week
Soak a cotton pad with Sensibio H2O.
Gently cleanse and/or remove make-up from your face and eyes.
Re-apply until the cotton pad becomes clean.
Lightly dab your face with a clean cotton towel.

Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Peg-6 Caprylic/Capric Glycerides, Propylene Glycol, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract, Mannitol, Xylitol, Rhamnose, Fructooligosaccharides, Disodium Edta, Cetrimonium Bromide.

MRP: Rs.599/- for 100ml, Rs.860/- for 200ml (Available on Nykaa.com)

Essentially Bioderma products are safe for sensitive skin and this product Sensibio H2O is specially made for sensitive skin and hence it is very gentle on the skin.

I love the fact that it comes in different variants,and this small 100ml bottle is perfect to carry for your travels.

It has a small,round bottle transparent packaging with a pink flip cap. It looks and feels exactly like water,as do all micellar cleansing water.  It is fragrance free. It comes with a sealed lock, so you can be assured your product is not tampered.

You just soak a cotton pad with this and remove all your makeup. It melts the base and gets it all off in a jiffy,90% of your makeup including the water proof one,comes off with this.

My only concern was it did burn my eyes a bit, I have read reviews where it worked really well for removing eye makeup, but then maybe it is just me, coz all makeup removers burn my eyes a bit. And I cannot get rid of waterproof mascara and a long staying kajal with this. Even if I just let it stay on the eyes and don’t rub but if a bit of it seeps in, eyes start burning :/ Though it does not burn as much as a few other makeup removers.

The best thing about Bioderma Sensibio H2O is that,it is very gentle and mild on the skin and there is no stickiness or greasiness at all. You can just cleanse your face and let it be,without using anything else. I usually like to end with a face wash, coz I like my face to be squeaky clean 🙂

Here is the before,after..I had heavy base makeup and full on contouring done in this pic and it removed every bit of the base.

As you can see the kajal is still on the waterline and I dare not use this near the waterline, coz even while removing the mascara it burns my eyes a bit.

Overall I would say, it is the perfect makeup remover for someone with sensitive skin and/or use on a daily basis. It is mild and gentle, does not irritate the skin at all, removes 90% of the makeup. But if you are someone with very sensitive eyes like mine, be a little careful of using it near the eyes.

The 100ml bottle is slightly on the expensive side,I would recommend getting a 200ml bottle as that is more economical. But if you need something for your travel kit, you can get the 100ml one.
