Nivea Whitening Sensitive Deodorant Review

Nivea Whitening Sensitive Deodorant Review

What the Company claims:

  • New Nivea Whitening Sensitive Deodorant repairs your skin to give you fairer underarms without any irritation.
  • It has 0 % alcohol and doesn’t harm the skin.
  • This deodorant contains licorice extracts that repair damage skin to give smooth, even toned underarms.
  • It provides soft, fresh fragrance for long lasting protection.

MRP: Rs.199/- for 150ml (Available on Flipkart for Rs.174/-)

Nivea Whitening Sensitive Deodorant Review

Ingredients: Butane, Isobutane, Propane, Cyclomethicone, Aluminium Chlorohydrate, Isopropyl Palmitate, Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract, Persea Gratissima Oil, Octyldodecanol, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Demethicone, Propylene Carbonate, Dimethiconol, Parfum.

To start with, I love the soft, refreshing smell. Its kinda like baby powder. And it stays for a long time..though not 24/48 hours.

Its very handy and compact to carry around in your bag too. It has 0% alcohol and the oils in the ingredients give it a very hydrating feel. Skin feels smoother and softer. It was very gentle on the skin and did not irritate the skin. I never use deodorants directly on underarms, but this one is meant to whiten your underarms and I first tried it on my hand and found it very gentle and hydrating and so went on with using it for the underarms. It also claims to be antiperspirant and works to a certain level.

Even when used on clothes, it does not stain them white. And the fragrance stays for a long time.

With continued usage, you seem some slight difference in your underarms. Coz licorice extracts are meant to work on dark pigmentation and lighten them bit.But then, you need to use it continuously and do not expect any magical results !

Overall, I would say, its a nice deodorant..and definitely worth a try.

Have you used the new Nivea Whitening Sensitive Deodorant ?

Skincare Tips for Men

Skincare Tips for Men

Men mostly ignore their skin and never pay attention to even the basic things, which can in turn matter a lot, in the long run, to keep their skin younger and nicer looking.

Some things men need to follow:

  • Use a mild facewash: Determine your skin type and use a gentle cleanser/face wash and ditch those soap bars. You can try the new Garnier Men Oil Clear Facewash if you have oily skin and the Garnier Men Acnofight Facewash if you have acne. And if you have normal to dry skin, you can try Garnier Men Powerlight Facewash
  • Always use a good moisturiser: Moisturising the skin is also equally important, for all skin types. You can try Garnier Men Powerlight Oil Control & Fairness Moisturiser. If you have oily skin, the oil control would help you keep a check on that too throughout the day.
  • Use a good high SPF sunscreen everyday: Do not skip a sunscreen. Since most of you must be out in the sun, throughout the day, you should definitely use a sunscreen 365 days.
  • Use a mild exfoliator (not an harsh scrub) with AHA and/or BHA to get rid of the dead skin cells, and help regenerate the new skin cells.
  • Use a product containing benzoyl peroxide overnight, if you have acne.
  • Use a good, rich night cream if you have dry skin.

Now some don’ts:

  • Do not use a soap bar: Bar soaps are drying and irritating which irritates and inflames skin, plus the ingredients that put bar cleansers into their bar form can clog pores. Routinely using bar soap on your face can also impede shaving, potentially leading to razor bumps and a more frequent need to replace your razor blade.
  • Do not go for products with too many fragrance ingredients : That will only irritate the skin more.
  • Do not buy cheap razors: Invest in some good ones. Your skin will thank you, in the long run.

I guess some basic do’s and don’ts is only what men need to follow for good skin. And they are good to go !

Shop for Bridal Lingerie,Bikini,etc from PrivyPleasures.com

Shop for Bridal Lingerie,Bikini,etc from PrivyPleasures.com

Yes, you read it right. Since, I am getting married in 5 months, bridal lingerie shopping was also obviously on my list. And I would not like to shop for that with my mom, of course :p That would be so embarrassing.

I can go with my girlfriends. My friend who got married last year, spent a bomb at La Senza. I have shopped for some things before from La Senza and from another good site for shopping lingerie.

This time, I shopped from another site,I got the opportunity to review and at the right time, coz I was anyways looking for some bridal lingerie. Also, if you have a beach holiday planned for your honeymoon, a good bikini is also something, you need in your collection.

The site is PrivyPleasures.com.

About: PrivyPleasures, Is a place where you can find products for all your fantasy needs. It’s the Indian online Shop where you can find everything from rare to find exotic lingerie, costumes, stocking to any accessories you may need.

We assure you of complete privacy and anonymity for all of your purchases. All your purchases would be sent to you in discreet packages, with a non-descriptive return address, avoiding embarrassment.

We provide you with Indian & International brands of the highest quality in erotic clothing and accessories. We house brands such as, HUSTLER, Magic silk, electric lingerie and we are always looking to extend our brands and ranges wherever we can.

You can take your pleasures to the next level, Guaranteed!

They have some pretty se*y bikinis and lingerie sets, night gowns, lacy see throughs, g strings and also role play costumes. You will find the raunchiest stuff here. And if you not into those, you can still find something hot for yourself. They have a separate bridal lingerie section too.

I got this turquoise blue sheer mesh chemise with open-back, lace hem, ruched satin overlay, and rhinestone accents. I can’t describe how se*y it looks and feels ! I just love it <3

And, also got this rose neon paisley print bright, beachy bikini. The round handles at the centre and cut outs give it a more se*ier look.

I also liked this lace pajama set and did buy it along with the turquoise blue chemise..but the pyjamas were slightly tight and I had to return them..so got the bikini later..

And this yellow satin babydoll chemise.

The shopping experience was easy. I got the stuff delivered in a day through FedEx. And they have free shipping above Rs.500/- below which they have Rs.50/- shipping cost. Though not happy with the fact that they charge Rs.100/- extra for COD. For online payment, no additional charges.

I am happy with the stuff..and most of the stuff is free size, so not much of an issue with that. I definitely recommend checking out the site whether you are searching for good lingerie or bikinis which are on an affordable side. Or better still, why not let your husband or would-be surf the site and decide 😉

Where do you shop for lingerie from ? Your favorite store ? Online or in stores ?

P.S: I was offered a voucher but that has not affected my opinion.

Kaya Skin Clinic Laser Hair Reduction for Underarms- My Experience

Kaya Skin Clinic Laser Hair Reduction for Underarms- My Experience

So, I had my 2 sessions of Laser Hair Reduction for my underarms at the Kaya Skin Clinic and the third one is also due in some time, though I do not require it anytime soon. At first, do note that I mention hair reduction and NOT hair removal. Laser does not remove your hair completely like waxing does. It works on burning your roots and stopping the hair growth and since hair grows in cycles, you need 5-6 sessions of it, for every hair to grow and get under the laser light. And also, its a permanent solution. So, hair reduction which happens in every session, would remain so for a lifetime !

I was petrified of Laser, but I still wanted to give it a try, though I have had patch test before last year. Read about it HERE. (Also the benefits of Laser Vs. Waxing) I went to the Mulund Kaya Skin Clinic at Nirmal Lifestyle and they only have the old normal diode lasik machine and not the ND-Yag one. I was more scared since it was the underarm area which is anyways a lot more sensitive for most of us.

So, what the attendant does is, marks the area with a white pencil. And calls the doctor to check and give the grading. After the doc gives the grading, the attendant shaves the area and gives you a pair of light protecting glasses and uses one on self. Starts by applying a thick layer of gel on the area and goes over it, with the laser machine. You see the light and also feel the prick in between and right after the prick, smell the burning hair follicle. I was continuously chanting God’s name the first time I did it :p But, you know what, I never realised when it started and when it was done ! It took just 5 minutes for one underarm !! I was done in 10-15 minutes with the whole session.

After my 1st session,I had the appointment for the 2nd session after one month. But when I went for the 2nd session, the doctor told me not to go for the 2nd session, since there was hardly any growth for them to work on and that it would be no point of going for the session on such less growth. So, they called me for the 2nd session after a 2 month gap. Usually, the gap between 2 sessions is 1 month, but if you do not have the required growth, you can keep it 1.5-2 months. But, the only thing is, you cannot wax in between your 2 sessions !! You can shave, but not wax.

My 2nd session also went quite smooth. You do see some growth, but those hair automatically fall off in few days. And now again, after the 2nd session, I have hardly any growth, even though its close to one month now. I guess I will have to wait another month again 😀

Post Laser Care:

  • Use a moisturizer every 3-4 hours. Do not let the skin feel dry.
  • Use a sunscreen on the underarm everyday for atleast a week.
  • Do not wax.
  • Do not use soap, gel, etc on that area for around a week
  • No swimming for a week

Ya, I guess some very basic do’s and don’ts to follow. And lifetime, you can feel free to wear sleeveless without worrying about the underarm hair.

Read the infographic below for more insights about laser hair reduction..

Kaya Skin Clinic have this very interesting offer where you can get your 1st session at the cost of waxing i.e Rs.85/- !! And, then if you are comfortable and like the experience, you can upgrade it to 6 sessions at a discounted price of Rs.7.999/- And later on, whenever you feel the need, you can go for a maintenance session once a year or so, for just Rs.1000/-

Here are the summer specials from Kaya that will make you want to drop the temperate with those hot stylish attires and beat the scorching heat:

–          It’s 85 for Freedom from April 1st to July 15 – Try the first session of under-arm laser hair removal service at the cost of waxing i.e. just Rs.85/- What’s more? Upgrade this package and pay just Rs. 7, 999 for 6 sessions

–          Avail of over 40% discount on full body laser from May 1st to July 15th

–          Combine your under-arm package with one laser service package and get a minimum 25% discount all through the months of April and May

More than 100,000 women at Kaya have said NO to waxing, enjoying the freedom of hair-free and satin-smooth skin with Kaya’s Permanent Hair Reduction!  It’s your turn now!

I also attended a Laser Mircale @ Kaya Skin Clinic event recently in association with Cosmopolitan, where again a lot of doubts were cleared by the doctors. If you subscribe to Cosmopolitan, they also had one free laser underarm session voucher inside the magazine for the month of May.

 I think its definitely worth it ! I could see a huge difference in one session itself and all the more after the 2nd. I definitely recommend giving it a try. If you have any doubts or hiccups, please feel free to ask me here in the comments below or drop me a mail at bhumika_thakkar@yahoo.co.uk, and I will surely get back. Do not hesitate. Its freedom from waxing and getting to wear anything you want. I am already planning to go for other body and face areas too.

P.S: Services were offered by Kaya but that has not affected my opinion. I recommend it,only after it worked for me.

Join Garnier Men India In The Nationwide Movement

Join Garnier Men India In The Nationwide Movement to #SayNoToBars and #SayYesToOilClear

Men will be men! No matter what the situation, this statement will always hold true for them.

Take a minute to think this through…
How many men have you seen who pay attention to grooming? Well, we know your answer – barely any, right! That’s true for most men. As the brand that cares about men and their grooming, Garnier Men India is out on a mission to change this.

Don’t you think its gross to use the same soap you use ‘everywhere’ on your body, on your face too ?! And, the skin on your face is definitely thinner and more delicate than the rest of the body. Plus, also more exposed to the sun and pollution. We, (including men) should take extra care of our facial skin. But, men do not understand this basic, simple thing, as if its some deep science ! #StupidThingsMenDo, I tell ya.

I really like this #SayNoToBars campaign and if guys get convinced to ditch those soap bars and try a face wash, it would be really cool and effective. Whenever I see a guy carrying a facewash, I love it. It is also one of the way of showing yes,we too care about ourselves and our skin and do not ignore it !

We believe, behind every successful man there is a woman – who helps him with what to wear and what to do. So, what could be a better way to make men change their attitude towards grooming than get the women to lead this initiative with us?

This is why, Garnier Men, in this Nationwide Movement ask men to Say No To Bars. Yes, they mean – Say No To ‘Soap’ Bars. Wondering why? Here you go –

1. Soap bars are unhygienic as the same bar is used for multiple purposes. Instead, why not switch to a face wash which is for a defined purpose?

2. Soap bars are history now! Modern men prefer to use face wash that is customised to suit their skin’s needs. So, why not be the man of today who loves modern facilities?

3. Soap bars are inconvenient and not practical to use at all. Then, why not be smart and switch to a face wash which is easy to carry?

Keeping these advantages of face wash in mind, they ask men to take a pledge against the use of soap bars. They instead recommend men to use the Garnier Men Oil Clear Face Wash for a deep cleansing action which removes excess oil without drying your skin while ensuring a day-long oil-free feel. If you are a guy, take the pledge NOW! HERE http://saynotobars.thegarnierman.com

And if you are a girl, make sure you get your guy to use a face wash and make him pledge against soap bars ! No More Bars !!

To make sure, they get the message clearly, here’s a fun song which tells you why it’s time to #SayNoToBars and #SayYesToOilClear 

So go ahead, bring a change in the men you care about!

Style Tips for Summers

Style Tips for Summers

So the monsoons were supposed to be officially starting in India, but they just showed us a teaser and ran away, to never return 😀

Well, untill we get those nice rains and showers, we definitely need some cool attire for ourselves in this sweltering heat of Mumbai. Here, are some summer style tips for you guys..

Outdoor

1. Cotton, Cotton, Cotton: Yes, do not forget. Wear only cotton in a hot and humid climate like Mumbai. Coz no other cloth material would absorb the sweat and humidity as well. Also, its more skin friendly and will not make you feel irritated even when you are out in the sun. You can also go for linen.

2. Whites: All whites keep you cool and relaxed. White ensembles do not absorb heat and are hence more suitable for summers.

Outdoor/Casual

3. Breezy, airy clothes: Shorts, skirts, dresses, sleeveless tops. All clothes that lets your skin breathe and gives it some air. We hate tight denims stuck on our skin in the summers, don’t we ?!

Casual

4. Sunglasses, scarves, hats: All that and more, whatever you need to protect yourself from the sun. A good pair of sunnies can make or break your outfit. Also, you can use a scarf, hat or umbrella when outdoors to cover your head and hair.

5. Comfortable footwear: Open and comfortable footwear, be it your slippers or sandals..or our very own kolhapuris. Also, you can go for wedges, if you need height.

Party

6. Sunscreen: A good high SPF sunscreen is a must in summers..and also do keep reapplying every 2-3 hours when you are out in the sun.

I have shared some sleeveless, airy tops and dresses that you can wear in summers..be it a casual look, outdoor look, party look or a festive look.

Here is mine Party #SleevelessSelfie Look..

Also, a good deodorant is something that you need all the time. The new Nivea Whitening Sensitive Deo not only smells amazing, but also helps whiten your underams for all those sexy, sleeveless, summer attires. I am currently using that and loving it..would be reviewing soon.

Btw, also love the new Anushka Sharma’s ad for the same..

You can also participate in this #SleevelessSelfie contest on the Nivea India facebook page here https://www.facebook.com/NIVEA.in/app_721803454524727 and win some great prizes.

Shades: Fair, Light, Medium, Dark

Ok, so as most of you know, we already have the CC Creams now after the BB creams..and the rest till Z will follow soon 😀

Coming to this Sleek MakeUP CC cream, it comes in this white and black cap packaging and has a small nozzle dispensor which just dispenses just the required perfect amount..no wastage here!

The shade Light is like my second skin! It suits me so perfectly, or its the CC cream’s color adaptive technology that makes me feel so. But I don’t feel there is anything on apart my skin, it blends and feels so seamless.

At the same time, its a little rich and hydrating..it plumps up my skin. And gives that soft, dewy, hydrated, glossy skin. I have combination skin, but I love base products that give me dewy skin. I am not a matte skin lover..I like it dewy and natural. So, for me, this formula works perfect. For oily skin, you will definitely need to powder up with this and touch up later.

It stays on me for a good whole day when I am out..has stayed 6-7 hours easily. And does not transfer much, a little on tissue, when there is too much humidity. You know I live in Mumbai and we all sweat like pigs once out of the house !

And as far as the coverage goes, its amazing..medium buildable coverage..and I need only a pea sized amount ! Its my go to everyday !

Here is an FOTD with only this CC cream and some kohl and lip balm.

Pros:

1. Amazing coverage.

2. Skin is moisturized and hydrated, you do not even need a separate moisturiser.

3. Gives a dewy, plumped up, healthy looking skin.

4. Stays for 6-7 hours.

5. Does not transfer much.

6. SPF29 UVA+UVB

7. Good for daily use..feels light like second skin.

8. Shades adapt to skin tone and look completely natural.

9. Travel friendly packaging with a perfect small nozzle which prevents wastage.

10. Also has Vitamin C which helps protect skin against skin damage.

Cons:

1. Availability is an issue.

I don’t think I can think of any other cons..I am so in love with it, right from the first use. Its my current staple. I hit ‘tube-end’ on my favorite L’Oreal Paris BB Cream and was planning to repurchase when this arrived ! And I sooo love this..in my Holy Grail now. Though there are only 4 shades, the Color Adaptive technology helps it match your skin tone. I highly recommend this ! Though oily skin and people who love matte skin, do need to powder. For normal to dry skin, this is a must have.

Rating:

Quality: 4.5/5
Value for money: 4.5/5
Availability: 3.5/5

Overall Rating: 4/5

Would I buy it again: Yes
