Check out more details at www.lakmebridalstylist.in
Here is the Bridal Takeaway Menu and Prices..
I tried one of the services as a part of the Bridal package i.e. the Luminence 3+ Ritual Facial and here is my review on it.
Luminance 3+ Ritual is meant for lightening the skin i.e. it targets pigments/scars. It is also suitable for tanned & dull skin. it gives the skin a glow which the brides need, hence the name ‘Luminence’. It gives hydrated, soft and supple skin. Pregnant ladies or person suffering from fever or anything in particular are not advised to go for it.
Steps involved:
1. Skin is cleansed at first with a foam based cleanser.
2. A creamy exfoliator is used and massaged on the skin.
3. Steam is given on the face & comedones are extracted.
4. Vitamin C concentrated serum is applied on the skin.
5. It if followed by a massage with a night cream.
6. A peel off lightening pack is applied and it is kept for 10-15 minutes till it dries.
7. A toner is applied at the end.
Duration : Around 75 minutes
Price: Around Rs.4000/-
My skin was not tanned, so no immediate difference can be seen. Skin definitely felt moisturized, soft and supple. It takes 2-3 days for the results to show and my skin looked and felt healthier in 1-2 days. Here is my ‘Before’ and next day ‘After’
Before-After
Few Dont’s:
DO NOT go out in the sun immediately post this treatment or use a lot of sunscreen if you have to.
DO NOT wash your face for 10-12 hours with anything except water.
Overall I would say I love the bridal services at Lakme Salon and definitely recommend the brides-to-be to get a package customized for themselves as per their requirements.
P.S: Service was offered in exchange of honest review but that has not affected my opinion.
Pre Bridal Services (Body) at Lakme Salon-Review & Experience
Hey guys,
I had got a few of my pre bridal services done at Lakme Salon on 2nd Dec before the wedding. I would be sharing my experience of the same but would divide the same into separate categories such as body,hair, etc for ease and convenience and not make the post too long.
I finished all the services in a day at the Lakme Salon,Bandra since I hardly had time left.
Starting with the body, I got white chocolate wax done. I had tried chocolate wax 1-2 times but never tried white chocolate. They start with a pre wax lotion that removes any body lotion residue, etc which sometimes is a hindrance while waxing.
White Chocolate wax was very very smooth and not at all sticky. It came out super quick with the entire area’s hair removal at once. No going over the area 2-3 times as happens with regular wax at times.
My full hands and legs were done in about 30-40 minutes which was quite quick. They also use a post wax astringent lotion which helps in closing the pores, which is very important for me since I have sensitive skin and open pores gives me bumps and rashes.
Then I went for Body Polishing which is an absolute must try for brides to be. They start with cleansing the body, followed by astringent and exoliating gel.
Since I had got my waxing done just before this treatment, I had to skip exfoliation as my pores were still open. A body scrub made of oats, papaya, etc was then applied on the entire body.
Left- Scrub,Right- Mask
Post cleansing of the scrub, a mask was applied consisting of sandalwood,fuller’s earth (multani mitti),etc with the steam machine on, on each area step by step. And it was kept on for a few minutes and cleansed with normal water later.
Skin felt super soft and smooth. I was so occupied with work on the last few days before the wedding that I hardly got time to look after my body skin. And that I guess would be the common problem with most of the brides. This treatment is perfect coz it compensates for your lost time and takes care of the body skin within an hour.
Highly recommended for brides to be and even for others,you can try it once in a while. Especially if you have ingrowth, etc, this would help exfoliate the skin and help in reducing ingrowth and getting rid of dead skin cells too.

I had decided of trying out the Derma-Regen 4 layer Therapy. I went for a facial just few days back.Last week I and my fiancee travelled on bike for 5-6 hours straight from morning to evening as went furniture shopping for the new home. Even though I had used a scarf but you know how it is in Mumbai. Result, tanned skin. Hence I chose the Intense White Dry Scrub which is targeted at tan removal.
About the Facial: (Also known as Intense White Luxe)
KAYA INTENSE WHITE LUXE THERAPY
Prolonged exposure to sun can seriously damage the facial skin – like cause tanning or affect the sensitive pigmentation cells to make your face look darker and affect its appearance in the long term.
Presenting Kaya Intense White Luxe Therapy – to give your facial skin the pampering and care it needs. It works in 2 stages to give the desired benefits
Stage 1: REDUCE the tanning and pigmentation that constant exposure to UV rays leave behind on skin. This uses the Remy Laure Peeling Cream that exfoliates to reduce tanning with its dry chaffing action. Arbutin extracts relieves the skin off the damage to create a visible (subject to consumer trials) lightening difference.
Stage 2: CONTROL the impact of melanin production. The application of highly potent skin brightening cream & Vitamin C brightening peel-off mask in multiple stages helps achieve this by imparting a uniform skin tone throughout the skin.
Rediscover brighter and moisturized skin minus the effects of the sun. Say goodbye to sun-affected skin with the Kaya Intense White Luxe Therapy*.
I was attended by the practitioner Moli. They use Remy Laure products for this facial.
Steps:
1. At first, the skin is cleansed with Remy Laure Cleansing Foam.
2. Next a toner is applied.
3. It is followed by the Remy Laure Peeling Cream which is the main product of this facial. It is kept for 3 minutes and it dries within 2-3 minutes, then it is scraped off with fingers part by part. (Hence the name Dry Scrub)
4. It is followed by a serum and a brightening cream.
5. Then the skin is massaged with a massage balm for about 15 minutes. (The best part. It was really relaxing)
6. Massage is followed with the Vitamin C brightening peel-off mask. A thick layer of the mask is applied which peels off completely in the exact shape of the mask when dried. (I hope you are getting it)
7. Followed by the serum and brightening cream again.
8. At last, a sunscreen is applied.
Cost: Rs.4500/-
Duration: 1 hour
Precautions:
Avoid splashing hot water for 12 hours
Wear a sunscreen regularly for 3-4 days
Result: I saw instant reduction in my tanning and my skin was back to normal tone. After 2-3 days I saw more obvious and visible difference. Also the skin felt soft and smooth, the dead skin cells and dry patches were gone. I won’t say I saw magical results but skin definitely felt amazing.
Overall I would say its the perfect facial if you want to get rid of your tan and do not have the time for herbal and natural remedies to work (as they take their own sweet time) I get tanned very very easily and it takes ages for me to get rid of my tan the natural way. Since I am getting married in 8 days and do not have the time to wait for the skin to detan, this was just perfect! I know its on the expensive side,but if its an important event/function, this is worth investing. Recommended!

• Gel cleanser (Lakme Professional Cleansing Gel) followed by an enzymatic based scrub for exfoliation (They use Christine Valmy Vegetal Peel– Bromelin, Papaya, Pineapple)
• A mixture of Lactic acid (Lakme Professional- contains Alpha Hydroxy Acids) along with other actives (Christine Valmy Special Cream 11) are mixed together and applied to desquamate cells and help better penetration.
• The skin is neutralized by a skin toner. (Lakme Professional)
2. REVIVE
• Pure Argan oil (Moroccanoil) is applied to the clean skin with gentle pressure point massage for 10 minutes followed by Gold peel off masque. (Lakme Professional-Lemon, cucumber, green tea, vitamin C)
• Skin instantly feels fresh, hydrated and nourished once the masque is peeled off.
• It’s later cleansed with a toner to remove the residues of the masque.
3. RENEW
•To finish the experience, few drops of the Argan oil is applied on the skin as a moisturizer, followed by Moisture Finish Vit E Suncreen. (Lakme Sunscreen)
I had gone for trying out this facial at the Lakme Salon, Bandra..and at first I was a little skeptic of argan oil on my face..but the procedure as a whole sounded good. The girl I was attended by, explained the whole treatment to me in detail. She told me its a hydrating facial and it repairs the skin..but that does not mean people with oily skin cannot go for this facial since it helps with Grade 1 acne too…only if you have too many pimples and Grade 3 acne, they would avoid doing this facial on you.
It helps in cell regeneration, improves skin’s elasticity and healing acne scars, etc making you skin more softer, clearer and supple.
At first, the skin was cleansed followed by a enzyme based vegetal peel. Then, lactic used mixed with Special Cream 11 is applied all over as a pack..there can be mild tingling here since the lactic acid has AHA’s. Its followed by a toner and Morocaanoil..which is massaged all over the face for better penetration..the 10 minutes massage for the head, face and neck is the best part here..deeply relaxing..I did bet you would sleep!
Then, a gold peel off masque is applied till it sets dry and is peeled off..followed at the end by few drops of Moroccanoil and sunscreen (for protection since your skin is peeled coz of lactic acid and AHA’s)
I saw my skin looked fresh and hydrated and there was a glow. But, the skin looked even more better after 1-2 days. The effect stays for a week or so. Also, the dead skin cells are gone, so you get rid of the tan too. I had gone for this service before..and now I am so tanned that I need it again 😀
Before- After
I am not sure if you can see much difference in this before-after pic coz of the lighting there.
I think its totally worth a try before your special event or something..though its priced at a higher side for your normal regular monthly facial if you go for one..but worth a investment once in 5-6 months.
My only issue was they used Moroccanoil on the face..I mean I agree its pure and all,but its a hair product for a reason. I would have much preferred if they did use pure argan oil. Also, I got a small pimple after a day or two..so since the face is cleansed of dirt, etc..sometimes it first reacts and one may break out as it all comes out and up.But soon the skin settles and you would see good results.
Some precautions to be taken:
Do not thread or bleach 4-5 days before going for this facial and 7 days after.
Do not use any creams, serums,etc on your face after this facial for 7 days..just a mild face wash and sunscreen.
Use enough sunscreen if you going to be out in the sun, after this facial, since it involves a peel.
Ya, I guess if you follow these basic things, you are good to go. If you have tried this facial or if you try now, do let me know your comments and views below.
Have you/Will you try the new Moroccan Liquid Gold Ritual at Lakme Salon ?

*prices at the Taj Salon, The Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai, as of January’14
I was attended by Meena Siddique..and she was amazing..learnt a lot of tips and tricks from her..
There are different Moroccanoil Hydrating Treatments and options.. The Price of Moroccan Oil Hydrating treatment – ranges from Rs. 2300 – Rs. 2700 depending on length and thickness of hair. Prices are inclusive of tax.
Since my hair was not very dry..she recommended the Light Hydrating Treatment..and not the Intense one..
At first, hair was washed with a shampoo and conditioned..then she applied the Moroccanoil Light Hydrating Mask section by section..
Hair was then washed with plain water..no shampoo.
And later the Moroccanoil Light Serum was used and hair was given a cold blast..and the dried hair already felt so soft and amazing and the best part..super light as if nothing at all is used..
And later they were styled and blow dried.
And the final result..
I was so in love with my hair ! They looked and felt awesome..and I received lots of compliments from the team there for my long hair..they all loved the outcome too 🙂
Also received this cute Moroccanoil two bag and Moisture Repair Shampoo and Conditioner and the Intense Hydrating mask to try..

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.
