MRP: Rs.64/- for 80ml, Rs. 132/- for 180ml 

Ingredients and Directions (Shampoo) :

Ingredients (Conditioner):

So finally a shampoo in India which is paraben free..(If you want to know more about parabens, read THIS) and also pH balanced..which means it balanced the pH of the scalp.

First of all, I love this fresh green colored packaging. Shampoo and conditioner both are a little light green almost white in color..with shimmer particles..it has a soft fresh smell.

Shampoo does not lather much and you need a little more of it than usual. Conditioner is smooth and creamy and moisturises and hydrates the ends.

It detangles and with a fair number of uses, I also reduction in hairfall..hair is more stronger..but it also gives a lot of volume..if you have thin,fine hair..this range would work great for your hair.

Pros:

1. Nice packaging.

2. Smaller versions are travel friendly and convenient.

3. Economical.

4. Controls frizz and detangles hair.

5. Gives a lot of volume (Pro for girls with fine,thin hair)

6. Paraben free and pH balanced.

7. Helped in hairfall and strengthened the hair a fair bit.

Cons:

1. Shampoo does not lather much.

2. Contains SLS.

Overall, I would say I liked using this range..and hair felt more strong too..I also like the fact that its paraben free..but for me, if I have to choose between this range and Radiant Shine range, I would go with Radiant Shine..coz I love smooth and shiny hair more..of course, hair strength also matters. I would recommend this range to girls with thin,fine hair and who suffer from hairfall.

Dabur Vatika Enriched Olive Hair Oil Review

What the Company claims: The effectiveness of Dabur Vatika Enriched Olive Hair Oil lies in its miraculous ingredients. We’ve put together the wholesome nourishment of olive oil with the goodness of almond protein and aloe vera, thoughtfully chosen after taking into consideration the problems that have long bothered millions of women. From big hair problems like hair fall, flaky scalp, brittle hair to minor hair woes such as dry hair, frizzy hair or split ends, vatika olive hair oil has the potential to answer them all. It’s not just a hair oil, it’s a Hair Nourisher

Vatika Enriched Olive hair oil & its natural ingredients: Each ingredient that goes into Dabur Vatika Enriched Olive Hair Oil contributes in making this a truly innovative product and gives women the gift of silky, bouncy hair along with hair fall control.

Dabur Vatika Enriched Olive Hair Oil

Main Ingredients being Olive Oil, Almond and Aloe Vera. Read more HERE

MRP: Rs.60/- for 100ml, Rs.110/- for 200ml

I have been using it for around a month now (oil once a week or so). Let’s start with the packaging..I like how it is easy and convenient flip cap..and no spilling,etc.

Its quite light weight in texture..and as claimed non sticky..even after using a good enough qty, hair never felt too sticky or oily.

Has a strong sweet smell..for those of who prefer their oils unscented, its not for you.

It was not difficult to wash it off..and it all came off nicely.

I do see some changes in hair fall and strength of hair..but it also gives a lot of volume (which I am not a fan of..I only prefer volume at my crown area..and not in the density of hair). Also did not notice much of smoothness or shine.

Pros:

1. Convenient packaging.

2. Cost effective

3. Easily available.

4. Benefits of olive oil, hibiscus, bhringraj, aloe vera and almond protein (Vitamin E)

5. Gives volume and density to hair.

6. Hair is stronger..less hairfall.

Cons:

1. No smoothness or shine.

2. Contains mineral oil.

Overall, I would say its perfect for people who have thin hair..or suffer from a lot of hairfall or have done straightening,etc..coz this will help in controlling hairfall and give volume and density. (coz of bhringraj and hibiscus too). But if you are someone who already has a lot of volume, you can skip this.

Rating:

Quality: 3.75/5
Value for money: 4/5

Overall Rating: 3.75/5

Would I buy it again: No..not for my hair type..but I would still be going back to it occasionally..especially if hairfall problem increases.

Sunsilk and 2 States press conference was held at the Taj Lands End, Bandra last Friday..I could’nt make it to the event..but here is the official press release..

P.S: I love what Alia’s wearing..Is’nt that shirt dress lovely ? Goes well with the green, white, blue, yellow theme too. And those silver heels too !

The occasion was hosted to announce Sunsilk as the official hair expert partner of the movie ‘2 States’ with the launch of #Sunsilkdreamjob campaign & introduction of exclusive movie merchandize packs

Sunsilk, India’s premium hair care brand announced a one-of-its kind collaboration as the partner of Nadiadwala & Dharma Production’s produced upcoming Bollywood movie‘2 States’, an Indian Romantic Drama film based on the 2009 novel of the same name written by Chetan Bhagat.

The movie is in collaboration with the leading hair-care expert, Sunsilk; a brand that has always stood for a ‘now or never’ attitude. The brandhas associated with the character ‘Ananya’ within the film with perfect fit. Full of optimism and gusto, Ananya believes in facing challenges with a smile. Ready to bag her dream job as a Sunsilk brand manager in the film, she fears nothing.She mirrors a typical Sunsilk girl’s personality- a dynamic and an optimistic girl who wants to chart her own course.

The occasion witnessed the launch of a ‘2 States’–centric Sunsilk Natural Recharge TV commercial introducing the exclusive campaign.In addition, the lead pair of the movie – Arjun Kapoor and Alia Bhatt also unveiled the contest and exclusive merchandize in front of the media.

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 😀

Post Holi Biguine Kérastase Hair Ritual at Jean-Claude Biguine Salon
So I did play Holi and my hair was definitely affected even though I had oiled it..and even though I had played only with colors..those colors are pretty drying dude..
 
And I had to wash my hair thrice to remove the color..that made the hair all the more drying..as the essential oils on the scalp which moisturise the scalp are also lost with frequent washing..
 
I definitely needed some hair pampering..and got to try this hair ritual at the perfect time..

Jean-Claude Biguine had post Holi Biguine Kérastase Hair Rituals..its like a detox for the hair..here is the official press release:

Indulge in the Biguine Kérastase Hair Ritual at Jean-Claude Biguine Salon and Spa

There’s no better day than Holi to let your hair down and indulge in some colourful revelry. So, don’t let it end on a sour note with hair woes. Post the chemicals and colours, indulge in the Biguine Kérastase Hair Ritual at Jean-Claude Biguine Salon and Spa for healthier and beautiful hair.

Hair can turn brittle and extremely dry if color remains in it for a long time. The Kérastase hair treatments provide shine; they moisturize and condition the hair, and help in repairing all types of hair damages. The Kérastase Chronologiste Caviar Ritual uses mimetic caviar pearls and special creams to nourish hair and make it feel softer, stronger and more lustrous. It is an excellent choice for deep conditioning of hair and scalp. Kérastase Ultime Liquide-Gold Oil Ritual provides instant radiance and deep nourishment to all types of hair – making it intensely shiny with a weightless touch. The Monodose Ritual is an express treatment that is offered primarily with a hair-wash. A Monodose Ritual for dry hair nourishes hair and makes it soft to touch.

The Kerastase hair rituals begin at INR 1500++ up to INR 2500++. The services are available across all Jean-Claude Biguine Salons & Spas, in Mumbai and Bengaluru.

To avail of the Biguine Kérastase Hair Ritual, book an appointment at your nearest salon.

Our present locations: Mumbai Bandra: 022- 65222211 | Colaba: 022-22153311 | Juhu: 022-66995555 | Kemps Corner: 022-66501111 | Khar(W), Linking Road: 022 26462626 | Lower Parel: 022- 65113311 | Lokhandwala: 022 – 65653300/22| Ghatkopar : 022- 25171700  Bangalore | Phoenix Market City, Whitefield: 080-67266666 | Lavelle Road: 080 – 41514000

So I went for this hair ritual..you must have seen my pic on Instagram, if you follow me. I was assisted by Zara.

And after checking my hair, she suggested the Kérastase Chronologiste Caviar Ritual for me..as my hair was slightly dry. I also asked her the difference in three and which is meant for which type of hair, and she explained well. 

Chronologiste Caviar Ritual is meant for normal to dry hair
Ultime Liquide-Gold Hair Ritual is meant for all types of hair
And there is one more..Signature Kerathermine which is meant for extremely dry hair

She explained the whole process in Chronologiste Caviar Ritual and how its not real caviar..since real caviar is super expensive and they cannot use it world wide as vegetarians and vegans would have an issue with it..so its basically artificial caviar..made up with vitamins, etc that are beneficial and hydrating for the hair..

Durations: 1.5 hrs

Price: Rs. 1500/- for Ultime Liquide-Gold Oil and Rs.2500/- for Chronologiste Caviar and Signature Kerathermine

Procedure followed:

1. My hair was checked first and after suggesting the Chronologiste Caviar Ritual, we started off with it..

2. Hair was shampooed twice with Kérastase Nutritive Bain Satin 1 Shampoo..and towel dried.
3. The caviar was crushed and mixed well with the creme and applied all over the hair in sections..each strand at a time.
Artificial Caviar
Caviar and Creme
Mixed together
4. Then head and neck was massaged..and I was like sleeping on the chair..it was so super relaxing…Zara has magic in her hands !

5. Hair was given a mist (indirect steam) for 10 mins.
6. Washed hair again with plain water.

7. Kérastase Elixir Ultime Serum was used generously and hair was dried giving a cold blast and once normal blow dry. (no styling)

And this is the before and after..

I am telling you this pic does not do any justice to how my hair felt..they were so super soft and smooth..I just could not stop touching my hair !

I had to go for a hair cut the next day..and since it was blow dried and styled I could not wash and judge the difference later on..I will update this post as to how long the effect lasts and till when the hair feels and looks the same :p

But from what Zara told me, if hair is taken care of with proper serums and conditioning, the effect lasts a month..and this can be done monthly..or else if very dry hair, twice a month.

At JCB, they use mostly Kérastase and L’oreal Professional..and a few Moroccanoil products..

I highly recommend trying out the Biguine Kérastase Hair Ritual at Jean-Claude Biguine Salon..if your hair is normal kinds, the Ultime Liquide-Gold one would do..but its definitely to be experienced..you will love your hair ! 

I think its a perfect addition to must-do’s before the wedding for the brides !

Have you tried the Biguine Kérastase Hair Ritual at Jean-Claude Biguine Salon ??

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

PRODUCT PRICE: Rs. 750/- for 1.6g


So at first I thought I have an olive shade which is marked as blue..these both read pink and blue..(Remember the goof up in Eyeconic..I got two greens instead of one grey..read HERE )

Now I got confused between the blue and green..there was no swatch for the blue one anywhere online..and this swatches a deep green..


Basically the three blue/greens in this range are one is a turquoise blue, one olive green and one this Blue which is a deep sea green..

These are eyeshadows in chubby plastic crayon form with transparent lids and matching ends to the shades..and needs to be sharpened.


Pink is a beautiful champagne pink..makes a nice easy to wear color..a great highlight, perfect for inner corners and also highlighting your cheeks.. (or as shown to us in the Lakme Absolute Illusion Masterclass, after the normal base shadow is done, this pink shade was warmed in between fingers and applied at the centre..i.e where the eyeballs are..and it gave a beautiful nice shimmery sheen) Very multi purpose !

Blue is actually a deep sea green..its quite rich and dark..and would make for perfect night time smokey eyes.


They have all the features they mentioned ! Glides effortlessly, super soft, amazing pigmentation, stays put throughout the day but needs to be blended super fast coz it sets immediately.


Here I have used Pink with subtle eyeliner..would look great with bold red lips..or any bright lip..when you do not want the eyes to be heavy..but still some sheen and shine 🙂

Pros:

1. Super soft.
2. Glides smoothly.
3. Doubles up as an eyeliner.. (though a thicker one..you can make for subtle smokey eyes by just blending the thick liner)
4. Stays put through the day.
5. Amazingly pigmented.
6. Comes in 8 shades to choose from.. Bronze and Purple are amazing too..apart from these two..and White which is a nice golden white.
7. Pink and White are multi purpose.

Cons:

1. I am not sure why this is named ‘Blue’ :/
2. These are priced a little higher. (Rimmel Scandaleyes are priced at Rs.415/- for 3.2g qty..though a few shades in Lakme are more pigmented than Rimmel)

Overall I would say, these are quite amazing…and I loved the shades they have come up with..there are subtle Pink and White..and bright Purple and Blue, and Indian wedding wear Bronze and Olive..there is one for everyone..and for all occasions..Highly recommend them..

Rating:

Quality: 4/5
Value for money: 3.75/5

Would I buy it again: Yes..I am liking Bronze and Purple.

Oriflame Beauty Studio Artist Gel Liner Review, Swatches

What the Company claims: Oriflame Beauty Studio Artist Gel Eyeliner gives the precision line of liquid eyeliner for professional and smudge-free results.  The smooth texture of the gel eye liner delivers rich color and even coverage and ensures long-lasting luring eyes for up to 24 hours. It comes with a slanted brush applicator that gives smooth and flawless effects.

MRP: Rs.449/- for 3g

It comes in a small glass pot and a small slanted brush alongwith..

Its rich and deep..and matte black..good pigmentation..can be easily layered..I quite like it for tighlining..gives precise definition..

Texture wise, it is quite soft but not that smooth..I like the fact that the small brush can be used for travel and no need to carry a separate brush..but for regular use,I wish it came with a longer brush too,as holding that small brush and lining is sometimes difficult.

It stays on for 8 hours plus on my upper lashline with minimal fading. But it sets quickly and layering over it does not go smooth.

Pros:

1. Rich black
2. Very creamy.
3. Glides on well..no tugging or pulling.
4. Small travel friendly brush.
5. Stays put quiet long.
6. Its often available at a discount..and the qty is more than other gel liners..like Maybelline and L’oreal..so quite economical.

Cons:

1. I wish there was a longer brush too along.
2. Available only through reps.

Overall, I would say its a nice rich black, matte gel liner..and buttery in texture..comes with a nice travel friendly brush too..if you love gel liners, you should definitely try this.

The shades in Pink Lemonade are more suited for lighter skin tones..though Pink Mint looks great on our skin tones too. Icing Sugar is kind of ok..a little powdery too as you can see from the swatches.
 
The shades in Californ.I.A would suit medium skin tones..except The Surf..which is a light peach.
 
They have amazing pigmentation and a great wear time too..comes with a mirror..and cream blush I prefer using my hands to apply..only need a brush for the powder ones..
 
Coral lovers jump on Californ.I.A !
 
Both these are love at first sight..Highly recommend them.
