Parachute Advansed #KhulkekheloHoli Contest – 5 winners

Hi guys,

Holi is coming up and I have so many good childhood memories attached with this festival. From prepping up previous day with balloons and pichkaris and finding all amazing colors to waking up early at 6-7 am and enjoying it with friends and family untill afternoon. It was so much fun! While the previous two years, I had my friends come over and we did have some fun with colours. But nothing beats the childhood fun, right.

This video totally refreshed my Holi memories.

#KhulkeKheloHoliYe Rang Hai Gaadhe Rishton Ke,
Inhe Pheeka mat padne do.

Iss baar, Holi Khul Ke Khelo.
#KhulKeKheloHoli

Posted by Parachute Advansed on Monday, 14 March 2016

Holi is all about love, joy, family time, togetherness and applying colours. Khul ke khelo Holi doesn’t mean we waste water, water conservation is an important issue currently and we should always try our best to not waste water. Holi can be played with colors and is equally fun!

Parachute Advansed #MomWasAlwaysRight Contest

Parachute Advansed #MomWasAlwaysRight Contest

Hi Guys,

I am back with a contest! First of all, how many of you feel our moms were always right and we should have listened to them more often 😀 :raises hand slowly: I think majority 😉

Let me share a few things today which my mom always told me to do, and I never did :p And now I feel, she was so right, I wish I had listened to her before.

  • Don’t binge on junk food

Well, I would not have to exercise later on, if I had listened to her.

  • Oil your hair more often,not only for the hair health but also to de-stress

Mom used to regularly oil my hair when I was in school and I had the best hair then, well like all, I reduced the frequency of oiling my hair once I entered college and then slowly it went down and down to nil. I should start oiling my hair again, miss my old awesome hair. Also the head massage my mom gave while oiling my hair was so so de-stressing.

  • Use natural stuff like curd,honey,besan,etc., for your skin

We all run after these face packs,face scrubs,face washes and what not and after using them for years, we suddenly realise that natural products are actually the safest and best. We should have listened to our moms before,right.

  • Early to bed,early to rise

Those late nights throughout our teens have changed our sleeping pattern and the weekends too, so getting up on weekdays for office has been such a pain for most of us :p

  • A penny saved is penny earned

Oh ya, the savings! Let’s not even talk about it, right :p Mom was always so right on saving and not spending like crazy.

I want to know your #MomWasAlwaysRight moments in the comments below and 2 winners will win special Parachute Advansed Aromatherapy gift packs.

The contest starts today and ends after 2 days on 11th May evening. Share this post on your social media tagging me and use #MomWasAlwaysRight for brownie points.

Also, when you win the contest, you can try this Art of Oiling on your mom 🙂 She will be very happy..watch the video to know how.

Good Luck 🙂

P.S: I am extending the contest till 12th May evening.

Parachute Soft Touch, Deep Nourish Body Lotion Review

Parachute Soft Touch, Deep Nourish Advansed Body Lotion Review

Parachute has come up with two new body lotions for dry skin this winters..Available in 2 variants: Soft Touch for Dry Skin and Deep Nourish for Extra Dry Skin, it has been launched in a convenient and exciting pump pack, just worth Rs.160/- for 400ml!

MRP: Rs. 115/- for 250ml, Rs.160/- for 400ml

The lotion is loaded with the goodness of coconut milk, the all-natural way to make skin feel soft and smooth this winter. After all, everybody loves winters for providing an escape from the scorching summer months and unmanageable sultry days. But then winter does come with its share of troubles. Especially for the skin — the patches of dryness on the upper arms or back, the parched feeling of the palms, feet and ear-lobes and in severe cases, the flaky dry skin on the forehead.


This skin menace can be taken care of effectively with the use of Parachute Advanced Body Lotion. It’s 100% natural moisturizers formulation not just seeps deep into the skin, but also replenishes the skin’s natural oils – to bring back the natural charm and glow of the skin!


Its a white colored lotion..medium in texture..neither too thick nor too runny. The lotion is water based and quite light..gets absorbed in a jiffy..you do not need to rub it in or wait for it to sink in..and it locks in the moisture just after a bath..and keeps skin hydrated through the day.

You remember the previous packaging it came in..see HERE and HERE..it always comes in awesome packaging..this time it came in a printed cloth pretty paper bucket with candles, chocolates, incense sticks and potpourri..how I love the packaging always !

Pros:

1. Quite liked the pump packaging.
2. Gets absorbed in a jiffy.
3. Pleasant smell.
4. Quite economical at Rs. 125/- for 250ml..thats a lot of quantity..all other body lotions are priced high comparatively…and more so introductory discount on it..
5. Love the light non greasy texture and yet moisturising.
6. Easily available.
7. It does leave the skin soft and supple as claimed.

Cons:

1. Has parabens and Phenoxyethanol.
2. Pump packaging is not for travel..there are smaller sizes available..but I love how super easy to use the pump one is..

I am loving it this winters ! Highly recommended..most cost effective and moisturising body lotions out there..

Its a white colored lotion..medium in texture..neither too thick nor too runny.

The lotion is water based and quite light..gets absorbed in a jiffy..you do not need to rub it in or wait for it to sink in..it has a light floral kinda smell..which I liked.


Pros:

1. Quite liked the packaging.
2. Gets absorbed in a jiffy.
3. Has a nice floral kinda smell.
4. Quite economical at Rs. 99/- for 250ml..thats a lot of quantity..all other body lotions are priced high comparatively.
5. This would be good for summers too..as its not too thick or greasy kinds..but very light.
6. Easily available.

8. It does leave the skin soft and supple as claimed.

Cons:

1. Has parabens.
2. It did not keep the skin moisturised throughout the day in harsh winters..I needed to reapply it..and this one being the intense care meant for dry skin..and claims to double moisture levels in 2 hours..should have been more moisturising..but would work for summers..or if you do not have dry skin.

Overall I liked it..easily available..and the quantity for the price makes it all the more worth it..compared to other body lotions…I just wish it was a little more moisturising.

And further inside..there were these awesome smelling set of pink floral candles, a CD “OMG! I’m in Love” with 51 love songs and all are so good..’Aicha’, ‘You’re Beautiful’, ‘Beacuse I Love You’, ‘Quit Playing Games’, ‘By Your Side’, and many more..and and chocolates ! And two variants of Parachute Advanced Body Lotion..
