L’Oreal Professionnel Techni Art Fresh Dust Dry Shampoo Review

L’Oreal Professionnel Techni Art Fresh Dust Dry Shampoo Review

What the Company claims: Now refresh and cleanse your hair while you’re on the move! L’Oreal Professionnel Tecni Art Fresh Dust Shampoo is the ideal dry shampoo for hair. The no residue shampoo mildly cleans your hair and scalp while the micro oils help absorb dirt and impurities from hair.

L'Oreal Professionnel Techni Art Fresh Dust Dry Shampoo Review

Micro Oils absorb dust and dirt particles to give fresher look to hair.
No residue formula gives your hair proper texture.
Gives a flexible hold to hair.

MRP: Rs.950/- for 150ml

Directions: 

1) Shake before use.
2) Spray onto the roots and work in the product evenly.
3) To restore volume spray approximately 20 cm away from hair.
4) Brush your hair to remove any excess product.

So this is the first dry shampoo widely available in India! I had bought the Batiste one from Dubai and still have it. I had never found any in India before. I am glad we finally have a dry shampoo now.

It comes in a simple white can packaging with a cap. I like the fresh smell. We all have been through those bad hair days, 2 days since you washed hair, have to go somewhere but no time to wash hair. It takes me 30-40 minutes to wash my hair. So I have been there a lot of times! Coz I am always pressed for time and late.

Its perfect for 2+ days hair. Absorbs the oils well and hair looks less greasy and smells fresh. Gives some volume too.

But you definitely need to wash your hair the next day once you have used it the previous day. You cannot use it for 2 days continuously since it builds up and then hair looks weighed down.

Its more or less at par with Batiste Dry Shampoo. Dry Shampoos usually work only for a day or so when you are too pressed for time. But never give a washed hair effect. It can somewhat help you on a bad hair day though.

I don’t agree with cleanses your hair and absorbs dirt and impurities claim. No dry shampoo can do that.

Overall, I would say, a girl needs a dry shampoo in her kitty for those emergencies and ‘no time’ days. I won’t suggest using it regularly, it cannot replace your normal shampoo. And I am glad, India has an option now.

The quantity of 150ml is very good. You hardly need few sprays at a time. It would last long too, considering its not used that regularly.

Estée Lauder Modern Muse Eau De Parfum Review

Estée Lauder Modern Muse Eau De Parfum Review

Estée Lauder unveils Modern Muse, a new fragrance that is inspired by the intriguing duality of today’s woman and complements every aspect of her dynamic life. This fragrance captures the essence of a Modern Muse with a Lush Floral Woody scent, a true statement in modern luxury that conveys confidence, style and creativity with a modern, youthful attitude.

Be an inspiration. Experience the fragrance that captures your style, your confidence, your creative spirit. An alluring contrast of sparkling florals and sleek, sensual woods.
Two distinctively different accords—Sparkling Jasmine Accord and Sleek Woods Accord—provide an intriguing dual impression. It’s a true innovation in fragrance design, as complex and fascinating as the woman who inspires it.

THE INSPIRATION
Modern Muse was inspired by the complexity of a modern woman, with the same dynamic contrasts as her life and her personality. Her creative energy and magnetic femininity are captured by its multi-faceted, sparkling floralcy. Her sleek style, strength and sensuality by its sleek woods.

Who is a Modern Muse? She’s confident and independent, soft and strong, feminine yet dynamic. Stylish and original, she inspires everyone she meets—without saying a word.

FEELING: CONFIDENT, INDEPENDENT, INSPIRING

FRAGRANCE TYPE: LUSH FLORAL WOODY

NOTES:
EXOTIC MANDARIN
HONEYSUCKLE NECTAR
DEWY PETALS
JASMINE SAMBAC
CHINA ABSOLUTE
TUBEROSE FLEUR FIRNAT
FRESH LILY
PATCHOULI COEUR
PATCHOULI CRIST
AMBER WOOD
SOFT MUSK
MADAGASCAR VANILLA SFE

A New Concept in Fragrance

Composed of subtle contrasts and bold contradictions, Modern Muse reveals layers of strength and softness in an appealing creative tension. Its innovative “dual-impression” structure invites women to connect with the fragrance through two contrasting aspects:

Sparkling Jasmine Accord: This facet of the fragrance captures the creative energy and magnetic femininity of a modern woman. Exotic Mandarin and tempting Honeysuckle Nectar send a spark of energy through a youthful sensation of Dewy Petals. Two extractions of Jasmine Sambac, including one new to the perfumery palette, Jasmine Sambac China Absolute, bring luminous texture to the feminine bouquet of rich Tuberose Fleur and Fresh Lily.

Sleek Woods Accord: Her sleek style, strength and sensuality are expressed through this innovative blend of two Patchouli essences wrapped in the creaminess of Madagascar Vanilla, rich Amber Wood and soft Musk – all of which craft an undeniably sensual finish.

MRP: Rs. 7900/- for 100ml & Rs.5900/- for 50ml

To start with, I am in love with the packaging! How beautiful does that bow look!! There is no separate cap and you need to directly spray it. The complete soft pink and gold with a hint of black on the bow looks very classy.

Coming to the scent, I have always loved musky ones. Those warm vanilla, woody, musky kinds. Too floral or fruity is not my taste. When I first smelled this perfume, I was in complete awe of it.

Its the perfect blend of floral and woody. Not too woody and not too floral. It hits the right chord. If you are someone, who does not like too much floral, fruity scents but love the hint of it in between the woody, this is just perfect for you! Highly recommended.

How You Can #ShopQuikr on Quikr.com

How You Can #ShopQuikr on Quikr.com

Hey guys,

Most of you must have heard about Quikr.com obviously with the amount of ads coming in, now on TV too. Did you see the two new latest ones ? I like that red sofa :p

But how many of you have actually shopped on Quikr ? I had not untill yet, so I am glad I got this opportunity by Blogadda.

Read on to know more about Quikr and what all I got:

About Quikr: Quikr is India’s no.1 online classifieds platform, a place  where people can connect with each other to buy or sell goods and services. Launched in 2008 with the vision for buyers and sellers to “meet online, transact offline”, today we have over 4.2 million listings and have generated over 150 million replies.

Headquartered in Mumbai, Quikr operates from 940 cities across India and is accessed by more than 30 million unique users and 26 million brand new customers per month. We now have over 13 categories and 170 sub-categories, with the most popular being mobile phones and electronics, real estate, cars and bikes.

At Quikr, we have created an online community which is simple and secure. We are constantly innovating so that users can buy and sell in the easiest and most convenient way possible. We recognized that getting a fair price could be a hurdle for our customers, and we developed a Maximum Selling Price (MSP) calculator to help users estimate a reasonable price range. We also pioneered the Missed Call service in India, enabling first time or non internet users in India to give us a missed call so that we can help them post an ad. This way we aim to make people ‘Quikr’ users, perhaps even before they are internet users.

Our efforts are being recognized. In BAV® 2013 (a Brand Asset Valuator by Rediffusion-Y&R), Quikr was the only classifieds platform to be featured in the list of top ten ‘Best E-commerce Brands in India Amongst Youth’.

Quikr has also raised big money – US$ 60 million last month, from investors, which means better technology, more categories and super cool user experience in the days to come. :p

When you enter the site, at first you get a select city option and are taken to the sub domain of the city directly. You have a city wise classification and they have a sub domain for every city. For eg, for Mumbai it is mumbai.quikr.com. It is better to stick to your city while searching things, especially if they are heavy, coz transportation would be a pain

Then ‘Post Free Ad‘ option and to Buy or Find anything according to the categories mentioned. You can also create a free alert according to your requirement, category, city and locality and submit your email id and phone number, and you will get free alerts whenever someone posts about something that matches your requirement! Alerts are cool, saves you a lot of time in browsing and finding stuff yourself.

I had to buy a few kitchen appliances, and that’s where I went http://mumbai.quikr.com/Home-Kitchen-Appliances/w1037. All 4 items are from this category.

Saved Ads on the right side corner

 

I registered on the site, which also gave me an option of ‘Saved Ads‘, so that I did not have to go through everything again to find the thing I had liked and shortlisted.

I got this Orbit Handy Chopper and Shake N Go Juicer which are both new and from the same seller. I called them and they said they would deliver the product home, show a demo and then collect the money which was amazing 😀

A man came in 2-3 days with the products and showed the demo, it was all fine. And collected the cash of Rs.2200/- i.e. 1100 each.

I think the Handy Chopper is perfect for onions, garlic and ginger, and many other things of course. Perfect to use when you don’t want puree/mince but fine chopping. The Shake N Go is more of a blender or a smoothie maker. It blends milkshakes and smoothies amazingly well and comes with 2 blenders.

Then I found this brand new Boss All Time Mixer Grinder for Rs.1200/- but the only glitch was I had to go to collect it to Malad. But nonetheless, I am happy coz it was a good deal. Boss makes good kitchen appliances and I loved this mixer with three jar attachments.

And the final thing I purchased is a Eureka Forbes non electric Aqua Sure water filter whose ad the seller took down :/ This screenshot was I could see.

Cached page

Thankfully I got the image from the cached link. It was mentioned for Rs.2000 but when I asked the seller on phone, he said for Rs.1500/– and it’s not much used :p :Happy Dance: (fits under 5000 budget) He agreed to come to the nearby station where I live. Thank God for that :p It has two new extra filters too.

I am getting married and shifting to a new place and these things would be indeed very helpful for me. In fact, now that I have shopped for Quikr and have had a good experience, I am also buying 2-3 things more and saving on some bucks 😀

I compared the price of each of the above items online and this was a good deal in all ways, hence I went for this. There were 1-2 items I had shortlisted before and the seller agreed to send but later when I called to follow up, he denied saying he got a better deal and someone is paying more for it. I know it’s perfectly fine, but the sellers should stick to their words. Secondly the product price he mentioned, I was getting the same brand new product on Flipkart for a lesser amount and so I had quoted 100 bucks less than Flipkart and told him the same, to which he agreed.

Some buyer who must have not compared the price on Google paid a much higher price for the product. I did not like the part where some sellers only try and fool the buyers and sell them the product at a higher price than what is normally in the market.

I suggest Quikr add a comparison tab online under each product page where people can compare the same model or item’s price online and not get fooled. That would be very helpful for many.

Also, sometimes you see a helpline number on the side where they mention they would pick up the product and deliver to your place. I had called that helpline number and they said they charge Rs.30/- per km. which I found very high, and that this price should be mentioned on the site itself.

Other than that, I have had a good experience shopping on Quikr and getting 2-3 more things soon for my new home.

It’s a very good medium bringing the buyers and sellers together. Some sellers even negotiate the prices and some clearly mention no bargaining. So as a buyer, check the product, go for one with pictures, call and try to negotiate. Also find a suitable mid point where you can meet and collect the product if it is not huge.

As a seller, do not price the product higher than the market price. If it’s a used product, always count the depreciation factor. And always include good quality pictures. Helps a lot in selling the product faster.

Also, Quikr has an option of Premium Ads where they charge you some minimal fee per day and place your ad right on the top in the particular category which helps a lot. If as a seller you need to sell something urgently, I would say try the Premium service.

OOTD: Little White Dress, Polka Dots Blazer

OOTD: Little White Dress, Polka Dots Blazer

Hey everyone,

After Diwali and New Year and all the Indian wear, I am back with an OOTD again. I have so many Little Black Dresses (LBD’s) but a Little White Dress is also crucial in your wardrobe.

I went for a white bodycon Little White Dress (LWD) this time. It fits like a glove and of course I had to wear my shapewear underneath it (Sigh! Girl’s problems) But it looks quite elegant and chic with the gold chain detailing on the shoulders.

I skipped a statement necklace since it had the chain detailing and went for statement gold earrings instead. And finished it with gold and stone bracelet and rings from Silvette. I am absolutely loving them, these days <3

Finally my black suede block heels with gold ankle strap.

I also layered it with a polka dots denim blazer. This blazer is so multi-use,would work with many of my outfits from denims to dresses. Its warm, thick, fits perfectly, snugs correctly and looks amazing. What else would one want from a blazer ?! 😀 I love it!

Dress,Blazer: StalkBuyLove
Shoes: Shown HERE
Earrings: The Trunk Label
Bracelet,Ring: Silvette Official

On Lips: MAC Ruby Woo

I hope you liked the outfit. Do let me know in the comments below 🙂

L’Oreal Paris Lucent Magique Blush Fuchsia Flush Review,Swatches

L’Oreal Paris Lucent Magique Blush Fuchsia Flush Review,Swatches

What the Company claims: – 3 colour pigments give an immediate rosy, healthy glow

– The blush is lightweight to wear and leaves the skin comfortable

– Makes your cheeks looks fuller, more radiant and youthful

Application: – Lucent Magique Blush has a soft texture and is easy to apply

– It is easy to blur and glides softly on the cheeks

Innovation: – Reflecting pigments capture and sculpt the light to give the perfect glow

MRP: Rs.850/-

Shades Available:

  • Fuchsia Flush
  • Sunset Glow
  • Blushing Kiss
  • Duchess Rose

Read more HERE.

L’Oreal Paris Lucent Magique Blush comes in a beautiful gold packaging with a mirror and a small brush. The brush is slightly scratchy but pretty decent for emergency or travelling.

It has three strips of pink with the middle one being the most broad which is a creamy matte rose pink. The top strip is a pale pink and the bottom is a frosty pink. All combined they give a bright pretty fuchsia pink flush as the name suggests.

It also highlights and gives that sheen coz of the shimmer, you do not need a separate highlighter when using this.

The pigmentation on touch is above average, but Do Not go overboard with this, apply it very very sparingly. On the skin, it turns deeper and brighter after some time with the warmth. It stays for a good 5-6 hours before it starts fading off slightly, but it is surely super pigmented and bright when in contact with the skin.

It is smooth in texture and goes on easy. The quantity is super awesome, you would need an entire generation to finish this blush, considering the pigmentation!

For the packaging, quality and quantity, the price is justified. Highly recommend this! Would update this post with an FOTD soon, I could not click a pic in daylight.

Top: Individual, Bottom- Blended

Also, Sunset Glow is one other super pretty shade from this range worth checking out.

Quality: 4/5

Anniversary October My Envy Box Review

Anniversary October My Envy Box Review

If you guys don’t know what is My Envy Box yet, go HERE.

So My Envy Box completed one year and we have an anniversary box this month. Its curated by Vogue India in association with their Vogue Empower project.

Check out my previous months’ boxes:

MRP: Rs.850/-

Its a gold colored box this time for the anniversary month. I love the red symbol embossing on the gold and the new compact size boxes since last month.

What I got in my box:

 

  • Clinique Take the Day Off Makeup Remover 5ml- Rs.1950/- for 125ml- Vogue Beauty Award Winner 2014. This is a good sample size.
  • SkinYoga Sandalwood Saffron Face Mask 5.67g small vial bottle- Rs.1395/- for 50g
  • Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Serum– 1.5ml x 2- Rs.5200/- for 30ml
  • Sebastian Potion 9 10ml- Rs.1450/- for 150ml
  • H2O+ Sea Salt Hydrating Body Butter 30ml- Rs.1450/- for 250ml
  • Tatouage Ephemere gold string tattoo– Its a temporary tattoo created by Annelise Toraille

I also got the Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief card but did not get the sample. It was anyways a 1.5ml sachet.

I wish the Sebastian Potion 9 was 2 sachets and the Estee Lauder serum either a slightly bigger sample or more sachets. I am happy with the Clinique and H2O+ sample sizes and that tattoo looks super!

I did not get one sample but since it was a sachet, its fine. I wish that was a bigger size too!

The box also had L’Occitane Spa La Vie Credit coupon of Rs.1000/- and an Estee Lauder card to learn one of their 6 tricks and maybe get a sample (if available) at any of their counters. Would try to find an Estee Lauder counter and would update you guys.

Overall, there are 1-2 hits in the box this time. I was expecting much more. Perhaps even a surprise little piece of jewellery or something. Vogue could have added a magazine subscription or something on their behalf too!

You can request an invite for My Envy Box HERE.

MeMebox Special #31 Earth & Sea Cosmetics- Unboxing & Review

MeMebox Special #31 Earth & Sea Cosmetics- Unboxing & Review

If you don’t know what a MeMebox is,read HERE. I got my first  Colour Box #1 in Red at first (reviewed HERE). This time they offered me to try a box which would be a surprise. I love surprises! So I was IN for it.

When I received the box,it was super heavy. (My previous box was makeup, so was quite light. This time it was skincare) It was this #31 Special Earth & Sea Cosmetics Box. It has 6 full sized skincare products!! Its bound to be heavy.

#31 Earth & Sea Cosmetics: When toxins, dirt and oil build up get under the skin, its waste-filtering system gets jammed, ultimately clogging up pores and making skin look dull. So, we’re bringing you nature’s clean up crew to clear the way for cleaner and brighter skin.

Charcoal, volcanic ash and mud all work together to draw out dirt and excess oil to extract stubborn impurities from deep within pores! Mineral rich marine energy works as the step 2 treatment for refining pores and replenishing moisture to the skin.

Our Earth & Sea Cosmetics Box offers the best natural ingredients to give you your best looking skin yet.

MRP: $29.00

Shipping cost: $6.99

Products in the box:

SECRET NATURE Volcanic Ash Pore Pack 100g- retails at $36
Enriched with organic Jeju complex and mineral rich volcanic ash, charcoal, green tea, and pine needle extracts, this Volcanic Ash Pore Pack works wonders for the skin by controlling excess sebum and tightening enlarged pores. Plus, it’s free of parabens, artificial fragrances, and artificial coloring, and is suitable for all skin types!

It looks very similar to the Innisfree Volcanic Clay Pore Mask!

ARIUL Spa Water 24 Hours Moisturizing Refreshing Mist 100ml -retails at $18
Ariul’s Refreshing Mist is made from pure spa water extracted straight from Beligium and extremely rich in minerals, various amino acids, and moisture. It works to deliver an instant replenishment into your skin, creating a moisture barrier for preventing any dehydration for the next 24 hours at the least. It also be used as a boosting serum for enhancing absorbance of other skincare products.

I love thermal water, spring water, spa water mists. Avene Thermal Spring Water is my all time favourite. Looking forward to trying this out.

ELIZAVECCA Elastic Pore Mask Cleansing foam 120ml- retails at $29

Suck out dirt out of your pores with charcoal while collagen extract from pig skin firms and hydrates skin. Spider extract makes this cleansing foam extra refreshing and suitable for sensitive skin.

WHAT IT DOES: Keeps skin feeling moisturized while removing excess oil and dirt from pores.

HOW TO USE
1) Apply appropriate amount on dry face. If too dry, use a tiny bit of water to spread cleanser evenly on entire face. Wash off with lukewarm water after 3~5 minutes.
2) After removing makeup, wet face. Massage a small amount of cleansing foam into creamy foam to remove excess makeup. Wash off with lukewarm water.

I like the fact that it acts both as a cleanser and mask. I know the spider and pig collagen extract does not sound good :/ But the Koreans and Chinese have the best skin in the world, all these weird things should be the secret. Definitely want to try this first :p

TOSOWOONG Super Aqua Cooling Gel 80g- retails at $34

The Super Aqua Cooling Gel is an ultra-cooling cream gel that provides long-lasting freshness and comfort to the face and body. Full of minerals and nutrients from glacier waters, this gel is ideal for cooling overheated skin and relieving irritated skin. Deep sea minerals also strengthen and moisturize skin so that you can have firm and supple skin all day long.

HOW TO USE: Evenly distribute a penny sized amount onto skin and massage until fully absorbed. Use daily morning and night after toning the skin.

It is supposed to be a moisture bomb and suitable for all skin types from oily to super dry. Its moisturizing and creates a moisture film on the skin and there is no oiliness or greasiness. If it delivers what it claims, this will be my go-to product for this winters.

DEWYTREE Mineral Healthy Sun Cut Loose Powder SPF36 PA++ 10g- retails at $34

Dewytree’s loose powder is enriched with natural minerals and essential oil for maintaining your skin’s moisture level and leaving a long-lasting silky finish to your makeup. Plus, it has a UV protection level of SPF 36 PA++ and uses an air pocket puff that does not clog pores with powder application.

Loose powder with minerals and essential oils plus sunscreen protection. Bring it on. I am yet to try on the shade, I hope it matches :/

SHARA SHARA Black Charcoal Mask Purifying 23g- retails at $2

Shara Shara’s Black Charcoal Mask contains high concentrates of charcoal powder and volcanic ash complex for clearing your skin of dirt, impurities and sebum clogging up your pores. It also works to soothe and protect sensitive skin with its wine and aloe vera leaf formula.

Again charcoal and volcanic ash. This time with wine and aloe vera. Sheet masks are easy to use, can be carried anywhere and I love how they are dipped in rich,moisturising serums and give an instant boost to the skin anywhere!

I think this box is perfect for people with oily skin or pore issues. So many products with volcanic ash, clay, charcoal and for deep cleansing. Its like a DIY clean up at home. Definitely recommend this box!

You can buy it HERE. By the way, the winners of the MeMebox giveaway are declared! Congrats guys, hope you get an amazing box of your choice. Do share the pics with me.
