Dabur Vatika Enriched Coconut Hair Oil Review

Gorgeous hair is best maintained by the age-old wondrous coconut oil. However, no matter what your hair type, texture, colour or length, you may fall prey to hair problems, at some point in their life. Are you battling hair fall, dandruff, split ends and more? Pollution, stress levels, sun, erratic lifestyles, inadequate diets, etc., could be playing havoc on your hair. While you can’t change what has been done, maybe it’s time to sit, up, take notice and use something extra. Make repairs with Dabur Vatika Enriched Coconut + + Hair Oil and make hair damage a thing of the past!

Vatika Enriched Coconut Hair Oil Review, Indian Beauty Blog

Dabur Vatika Coconut Oil Key Ingredients: Say goodbye to all your hair problems. Switch to Vatika!

3 hair problems, 1 solution. With the triple power of Amla, Henna and lemon, Vatika Enriched Coconut Hair Oil, saves your hair from problems like dandruff, split ends and hair fall, thereby giving it volume and shine that make your tresses gorgeous!

MRP: Rs.84/- for 180ml (150ml + 20% extra free)

Benefits of Dabur Vatika Enriched Coconut Hair Oil:

  • It helps in deep conditioning your scalp
  • Amla promotes hair growth
  • Coconut is very nourishing and hydrates and nourishes even the hair follicles
  • Amla helps prevent hair greying
  • Lemon is very good to keep dandruff at bay
  • Coconut oil being rich and hydrating, also helps get rid of split ends
  • Coconut helps retain moisture in the hair & also works on repairing damaged hair
  • Coconut oil is a natural detangler for hair
  • Henna also helps retain hair colour and keep it rich and dark

And there are numerous other benefits of Coconut alone, much more of Henna, Amla and Lemon infused together. In monsoons, if I get wet in the rains, the first thing that gets affected is my hair. If I do not immediately oil my hair and wash them, the texture changes and I even face dandruff issues coz of the rain water. In winters, dandruff is the main issue always. I am glad the Vatika Enriched Coconut Hair oil has lemon which is what I mostly use for my dandruff, this is helping me keep dandruff at bay.

How I use it: I either keep oil in my hair overnight or do use it an hour before shampooing, and it makes a huge difference. Whenever I have oiled my hair before shampooing, the hair is super smooth and more softer with less frizz than just alone shampooing. Overnight oiling is more beneficial, but if forgot or do not like the oil on your hair overnight, at least try and use it an hour before shampooing.

It takes an extra wash to remove the oil, but then it’s so worth it. Fortunately, Dabur Vatika Enriched Coconut Oil is not that sticky and very light in texture, it would not make your look like an oil slick or give you that sticky feeling when you touch your hair.

I would say it is one stop for all your hair problems from hair breakage, split ends, greying , dandruff, etc. Use this twice a week on a continuous basis and you will definitely see a lot of improvement in your hair.

It is very economical price wise too, plus I got 20% extra 😀 I love the light smell too, it is not over powering or bothering.

This is my current favourite hair oil. I definitely recommend trying it out.

L’Oreal Paris White Perfect Magic White Double Whitening Day Cream, Eye Cream Review

Whoa, that’s quite a mouthful! I have been using this day cream and eye cream from the L’Oreal Paris White Perfect Range from quite some time, day cream being on and off, read below to know why.

What the Company claims: GET INSTANT PERFECTION AND DAY AFTER DAY SKIN WHITENING FROM WITHIN WITH THE REVOLUTIONARY WHITE PERFECT MAGIC WHITE DOUBLE WHITENING CREAM.

PRODUCT BENEFITS: Upon application, thousands of MAGIC BEADS melt on skin to instantly and magically brighten and even skin tone right from the 1st touch, with no BB cream effect. Apply on cleansed skin every day.
INNOVATIONS & INGREDIENTS: High concentration of MELANIN-VANISH accelerates the skin regeneration process to unload excess melanin deep in skin layers and reduce dullness and dark spots.

MRP: Rs.799/- for 50g (Buy HERE)

Ingredients:

WHITE PERFECT MAGIC WHITE EYE CREAM
WHITE PERFECT MAGIC WHITE DOUBLE WHITENING EYE CREAM GIVES INSTANT BLUR EFFECT.
PRODUCT BENEFITS: In 5 seconds, instant blur effect, anti-dark circles, lines and bags.
Apply around the eye contour.
INNOVATIONS & INGREDIENTS: In 4 weeks, eye contour brightening with Vitamin CG and Caffeine.

MRP: Rs.599/- for 15g

Ingredients:

Both the day cream and eye cream come in this white and blue packaging, the day cream being a flat tube with a nozzle front and the eye cream being slim and round with a thin nozzle tip.

The day cream is white in color and thin and runny in texture, it spreads easily on the skin but it needs some blending as it leaves a whitish cast which looks too obvious if not blended well. The smell is not so pleasant too.

You definitely see visible brightness on the skin as soon as you apply it, but it not something permanent or that stays forever. If you read the ingredients in the image above, you see a lot of different silicones in it. Now my skin is not very sensitive and does not react easily to products but with this one, I broke out and got a lot of white heads, I had to stop using it for a few days. Then I started using it again and I broke out again 🙁 Now I have 2-3 acne scars to deal with. I am not really sure what particularly from the ingredients was triggering break outs. Coz I have used products with silicones before, maybe the combination of silicones or a particular silicone was doing it.

Till the time I used it, I can say that it does give the skin a brighter look and feel though not permanently. It is moisturising enough and there were no dry patches on the skin. I wouldn’t recommend it to sensitive skin though, for others, do give it a try if you want brighter, firmer looking skin but don’t expect permanent or long term results. You will notice a difference till the time you use it. Also, it has SPF19.

Coming to the eye cream, I love the convenient packaging and the nozzle only dispenses the required quantity. It is light yellow in color and slightly thick but easily blendable.

I target my under eye area at first, and then with some product left on the ring fingers I go over the entire eye lightly. I definitely noticed a difference in my under eye area from the time I am using it. The eye area is more moisturised, dark circles less visible and eye area is brighter. Caffeine also helps in reducing the under eye bags.

L- Eye cream, R- Day Cream

I love the eye cream and definitely recommend it, if you have dry skin and are anywhere in your late 20’s and early 30’s, it is time you start using an eye cream and invest in a good one. Even though this sounds expensive, 15g tube would last long as you need quite a tiny amount.

Overall, I would say the day cream did not work for me coz it broke me out but the eye cream is definitely worth a try!

Accessories from Confusion Fashion Accessories

Hi guys,

Remember the accessories I showed you last time from Confusion Fashion Accessories, see HERE. Read all about them in the previous post or at confusionfa.com

This time, I got a few more pieces to show you guys.

Pearl and Mesh Haath Phool

If you have seen the previous haath phool and how I was obsessed with it, you have to see this one. I absolutely love this haath phool/hand harness and have been wearing this a lot! This is slightly different coz it has a mesh and pearl kada on one side and then connects with the ring, unlike the usual bracelet.

Pearl Drop Earrings

These cute pearl drop earrings which I wore in my youtube video HERE, I love how small and light they are yet look pretty, they are kind of ‘jhumkas’ which you can wear with not only your Indian outfits but also fusion Indo-western wear. I have worn them with my maxi dress.

Kundan Maang Tikka

I love maang tikkas, they make you look pretty instantly and you don’t need any additional accessories when you are wearing a maang tikka. This one has kundan which makes it look all the more pretty and it has maroon enameled stone which makes it perfect for most of the Indian wear and wedding sarees.

Kundan Saree Keyring

And, last but not the least, a kundan saree keyring. I was in search of a good kundan keyring which is not very heavy since a long time and this is just perfect! It can make any saree look much more pretty and well accessorized. Key rings complement sarees beautifully.

I love all the four pieces here, if I have to choose, the haath phool is of course my favourite, followed by the earrings and maang tikka. And if I am wearing a saree, the key ring.

I really love Confusion Fashion Accessories’ collection and also the fact that they keep adding on new stuff every month. I see new collection and different, unique pieces every time I check their site.

If you are looking for some accessories for your Indian wear, definitely check out Confusion Fashion Accessories. They also have some nice house decor items. cuff links and brooch for men, etc.

PepperTap: A New Way To Shop Groceries

About PepperTap: PepperTap is changing the way people buy groceries. We are replacing your visits to the super market with a few taps on phone. We started our operations in November 2014 serving a limited area in Gurgaon. Focussed on accurate and on time deliveries, we are now available throughout the city. Simplicity and effectiveness are the key drivers of our products and service. We believe buying groceries online should not be just for early adopters and We strive to make our service more accessible so anyone can free up their time to do what they love.

There have been so many apps to shop groceries out now in the market. But I think Peppertap’s claim to deliver in 2 hours in unbeatable!

You get 20% off on your first order using ‘TAP20’ maximum upto Rs.200/- I am glad that one can see this message and use the 20% off discount, because majority of the times the coupon code is available online or on their social media and one has to search. If you are not very social media friendly, you could miss out on the coupon code but Peppertap displays it on your login.

I tried to shop from Peppertap and it was a breeze. The interface and layout is amazing. I have tried 1-2 other grocery apps and for buying stuff worth Rs.1000 took me 3 hours! I was so surprised and happy to see the amazing layout and easy navigation of the Peppertap app.

As you can see above, there are categories like Popular (most sold), Food & Drink, Staples & Spices, Fruits & Vegetables, Breakfast & Dairy, Bath & Body, etc. And then there are sub categories like Flour, Oil & Ghee, Rice, Salt & Sugar, etc. within Staples & Spices.

They list all brands and types of flour available with the price, quantity, discount, etc for each item. This was so convenient coz I have spent a lot of time on other apps using the ‘Search’ option as it was not bifurcated that well.

 

They have some items like broccoli, babycorn, mushrooms, etc. but still don’t stock red cabbage, olives, etc. I hope they add more products to their kitty.

They have free shipping above Rs.250/-, below which they have shipping charges of Rs.50/-

On checkout, you get two options for Delivery Time and Payment Type. If you want the order to be delivered ‘NOW’ i.e. in 2 hours or a later time where you select a time slot. And Payment Type, whether Cash on Delivery or Paying Online.

Peppertap App is available both on Android and iOS.

I definitely suggest you guys try the Peppertap app. And you get your order delivered in just 2 hours which is the best part, because even when you go out to buy stuff, picking up stuff, standing in queue to pay and returning back carrying all those heavy bags will take you 2 hours or perhaps more!

Save your time and efforts and your weekend, if you are working by ordering all your groceries on your phone at the comfort of your home or even while you are travelling.

Peppertap definitely gets a big thumbs up from my side and I will be ordering from them more often, what about you? What do you guys think of the Peppertap app?

Illamasqua Glamore Lipstick Kin Review, Swatches

Illamasqua Glamore Lipstick Kin Review, Swatches

What the Company claims: Colour intense, sophisticated burnished red lipstick enriched with moisturising Vitamin E. Lipstick in Kin provides a long-lasting satin finish in a smooth, hydrating formula that glides onto lips without compromising on colour pay off.

Sophisticated Burnished, Satin Finish

MRP: Rs.2093/- for 4g (Available HERE)

I have tried a few lipsticks from Illamasqua before, also the Glamore ones, see HERE and HERE. This shade ‘Kin’ is from the new Illamasqua Earth Collection.

It has the classic black Illamasqua packaging. The finish is creamy and it is quite pigmented like all other Illamasqua lipsticks, you just need one swipe with this.

The shade Kin is described as burnished red, it is like a light muted wearable berry brown shade. It instantly glams up your face and perfect for night too.

The only thing I did not like much about this lipstick in particular is the staying power, it stayed just 3-4 hours on me and that too without eating or drinking. All other Illamasqua lipsticks have always stayed longer, not sure if it is something with this particular lipstick.

It fades away evenly and easy to carry along and apply. Here it is on me..

The only con I would say is the availability and also Illamasqua lipsticks are a bit pricey. But they have such amazing pigmentation and quality, have always loved all Illamasqua lipsticks, I only wish this one stayed longer though.

Overall, I quite like this shade and the Earth collection is all about ‘Fall’ shades and browns, berries, etc. This shade ‘Kin’ is also fall appropriate. If you are looking for a wearable berry shade which is not too bright or vampy, then this would be perfect. It will work with majority skin tones.

Would I buy it again: Not this shade, but would love more of Glamore Lipsticks

Maybelline Fashion Brow Duo Shaper Pencil Review

Maybelline Fashion Brow Duo Shaper Pencil Review

Hi guys,

I am so glad that brands in India are coming up with something for eyebrows which was forever ignored until now. I know so many women who make do with either black/brown eye pencil for eye brows. But now no more! We got the Fashion Brow Duo Shaper pencil by none other than Maybelline India.

What the Company claims: The Fashion Brow is the ultimate duo shaper with a natural mineral powder finish on one end and a 0.2mm micro lead tip pencil on the other to give you an ultra-soft precision for perfectly defined eyebrows up to 12 hours. It fixes gaps and blends seamlessly for smooth, stunning brows. If you’re not born with brows that are naturally full and shaped to perfection, Fashion Brow will guarantee you to get the best look for them.

Here’s why you will love it:
– Available in two variants, Brown and Grey.
– Duo shaper with a natural mineral powder finish.
– 0.2mm micro lead tip pencil.
– Double ended eyebrow pencil.
– Perfectly defined eyebrows up to 12 hours.
– Priced at Rs. 245 for 0.61g

I also love the fact that it is everything dual from two shade options i.e. Brown and Grey coz not every woman’s facial hair is of the same color. Brown is what usually works for everyone, but many a times brown looks stark and grey looks more natural. Try out both and what works best for you.

Powder on one side and Pencil on one

Also it has both powder and pencil in one, i.e. one side id mineral powder with a sponge tip applicator and one side is a very fine tip retractable pencil.

Now I have the ‘Brown’ one and the pencil part still looks a bit grey and is not completely brown. The pencil is a bit hard and you have to go with multiple soft strokes to define the shape. I am glad it is not creamier or too pigmented coz then it either melts off if creamy and one goes overboard if too pigmented.

L- Pencil, R- Powder

There is a very thin line between defined brows and artificial looking too much filled bushy brows! It is very easy to make out and the over-filled ones look very bad, trust me! The pencil is quite thin and perfect for defining the shape and adding just the required color. I use the pencil at the front and define the shape and then fill the outer half and the gaps with the powder side.

It stayed on me whole day with minimal fading! I quite like the Fashion Brow Pencil and also it is priced very economically, but the quantity is too less. You will finish the pencil part soon and the powder you just cannot see how much is used/left.

L- Powder, R- Pencil

I am not someone who fills eyebrows everyday or regularly. I have thick brows and I usually skip doing brows, though there are certain gaps I need to fill, but I am usually too lazy. I am glad I can now by carrying just a pencil, since it is very travel friendly too, now you can do your brows anywhere without carrying brow powder/brush, etc.

Here is my Before- After

Before – After

Absolutely love it and recommend it!

I only hope that they retail online too, so that can be more easily available.

Best Resorts In Goa

Hi guys,

I have been to Goa quite a lot lately, almost 3-4 times in the past 1-1.5 years. I got the opportunity to stay in some of the best Goa resorts, so here are some of the places I stayed in and some I wish to stay at.

1. The Leela Beach Resort: This was on my most recent trip, it is a huge property with over 200 rooms. Every room is a villa kind and is on some distance from the other room, so your privacy is ensured and you travel from the reception to the rooms in an eco friendly buggy. The private beach and ‘The Restaurant’ there are also amazing. Majority rooms have the pond view where you see lotus blooming every morning 🙂

2. The Lalit Golf & Spa Resort: I also went to The Lalit Golf & Spa Resort for lunchand spent some time there. Even The Lalit property is equally huge and has the most beautiful golf course I have ever seen! You only see lush greenery around and the private beach at The Lalit is my favourite! The Portuguese style architecture and paintings in the lobby are very attractive.

3. Goa Marriott Resort & Spa: I haven’t been to the Marriott yet but from what I hear, it is the best when it comes to their Spa. Also the food is equally amazing.

4. The Zuri White Sands Resort & Casino: I had been to the Zuri White Sands Resort last year, a beautiful property and a private beach with white sand all over. I can spend all day at The Zuri’s private beach. I did not like the Casino much though.

5. Santana Beach Resort: Now this one is in North Goa i.e. the happening place and the only one in North Goa in this list. I went there last year with my friends. The rooms are huge and spacious and the breakfast is good. It is the only 3 star hotel in the list but has got excellent ratings everywhere coz of their service and the way it has been maintained. I even met the owner lady who said her son and daughter in law are running the place now, she was very sweet and warm.

6. Royal Haathi Mahal: I haven’t been here, but have seen a lot of it in pictures. It is one of the places I wish to stay at in Goa. The property and rooms look quite good. Also known for its gym, spa and Jacuzzi.

7. Taj Exotica: I haven’t been to Taj Exotica too, on my wishlist again. When it comes to Taj, no one can beat it at hospitality.

Which are your favourite resorts in Goa?

September 2015 My Envy Box Review

Hi guys,

If you remember the previous month’s My Envy Box, it was a bomb!! It was the best My Envy Box I had ever received. So I had very high expectations from this month’s My Envy Box, did it stay upto the expectations? Read on to know..

Read more about My Envy Box HERE and check out all the previous reviews HERE.

MRP: Rs.850/- (Buy HERE)

I received September’s My Envy Box today, and I also filmed a video and edited it all today 🙂

This month’s box is a silver colored one. It has the September card and the product details card, which has a few makeup tips on the back side of the card.

 

Let’s look into the contents:

  • Za Total Hydration Fresh Foamy Cleanser 5g sample- Full size Rs.299/- for 100g
  • Davidoff Cool Water Shower Gel 75ml- Full size Rs.1800/- for 150ml
  • Catrice Ultimate Shine Lip Colour in What’s Apricot Full size- Rs.610/- for 3.5g
  • Trussardi Donna perfume vial 1.5ml

This time there is just one full sized product i.e. the lipstick, one super deluxe sized sample i.e Davidoff Cool Water Shower Gel which is half the original size and two tiny samples which I am not too happy with.

The cleansing foam is only worth Rs.299/- and not something very expensive, so a sample size of at least 20g could have been included. I don’t like perfume samples in subscription boxes or bags, though this one smells nice, but you can get such tiny samples for free at the brand counters.

Catrice Lipstick in What’s up Apricot

My Catrice lipstick was a nice, everyday n*de shade and good to pair with smokey eyes, but it has melted and broken from the base and got damaged in transit :/

Overall I would say this month’s box is pretty ok, I am not too pleased. My expectations were sky high after the super amazing box last month. I would suggest you buy it only if you like the Davidoff Cool Water and the Catrice lipstick.

The price of the lipstick i.e. Rs.610/- and the shower gel i.e. Rs.900/- is a total of 1500/- which is decent for a box worth Rs.722/- (post discount)

I hope your lipstick remains intact though 🙂

Buy the box HERE, also you can use the coupon code ‘NEWLOVEMAKEUP‘ during checkout to get extra 15% off, which would bring down the cost of the box to Rs.722/-!

OOTD: Palm Print Crop Top, Denim Joggers

Hi guys,

Time for a new OOTD 🙂 I got this palm print peach crop top from Koovs, it is from Spring Break. I love quirky prints (remember this pineapple print crop top) and light, pastel colors, peach being one. This was again a perfect combination of color + print in a crop top like the pineapple print one, so I grabbed it 😀

And another favourite of mine are these denim jogger pants. These are very loose and so comfortable, it is like wearing denim but still not feeling like denim. These are from StalkBuyLove and called ‘Uber Kool Tencel Pants’. They run slightly loose and hence my normal size is also quite loose for me, so order accordingly.

I completed the look with my current favourites shoes, the silver loafers from Forever 21, black fringed bag and my Daniel Wellington watch.

I wore this look for the Clinique Face Forward Lunch.

Crop Top: Koovs
Joggers: StalkBuyLove
Bag: StalkBuyLove
Shoes: Forever21 (Also shown HERE)
Watch: Daniel Wellington

I hope you liked the look, do let me know in the comments below 🙂
