Lakmé Salon Presented ‘Show Stopping Hair’ Collection Styled by Little Shilpa @ Lakmé Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2014
Hey guys,
So I attended this #HairIsFashion #ShowStoppingHair ‘first of its kind’ hair fashion show yesterday at Lakme Fashion Week. It was styled by Little Shilpa, but the whole show revolved around hair.
Lakmé Salon brought hair to the forefront for the first time in the history of Lakmé Fashion Week through its ‘Show Stopping Hair’ collection. Styled by Little Shilpa, the line showcased a variety of head-turning avant-garde hairstyles that opened with ‘Metamorphosis’; a play of hair colors, followed by ‘Illusion’; a tryst of hair lengths and textures and ended with the classic ‘Moulin Rouge’; bouffants and updos galore. Twelve models walked the ramp with the spotlight uniquely focused on their hair, punctuating Lakmé Salon’s belief ‘Hair is Fashion’.
Shailesh Moolya, Creative Hair Director, Lakme Salon, Designer Little Shilpa and Sushma Khan, National Makeup and Skin Trainer, Lakme Salon (L-R)
The collection took its cues from three different spaces; postmodern Paris,romantic Paris and Moulin Rouge.
Cutting edge hairstyles, and mirror images of opposite hair lengths and textures constituted the first part of the show, ‘Metamorphosis’.
‘Illusion’ inspired by the ‘Northern lights’ phenomenon celebrated the confluence of hair colors.
Finally, red crystal chains around hair cones, coiffures and red crystal nested mohawks recreated ‘Moulin Rouge’ for the show.
Whether drapes of shredded fabric around models in all black, or corsets with micro shorts, Little Shilpa certainly added some interesting design elements that complimented Lakmé Salon’s unconventional hairstyles. Add to that theatrical lighting where the spotlight followed models, furthered the dramatic tone of the show. Little Shilpa also created a special limited edition hair accessory which will be offered to the first 20 Lakmé Salon customers who opt for these newly introduced looks. These pieces have been crafted basis the three themes that were showcased at the show.
Metamorphosis
At the event, Shailesh Moolya, Creative Hair Director, Lakmé Salons stated that “Lakmé Salon for the first time in India made hair the hero of the show. It was great to see such an outstanding response. Our three creative and trendy hair themes from the ‘Show Stopping Hair’ collection will revolutionize hair fashion in the country and are going to make hair the boldest fashion statement. These gorgeous, fashion-forward looks from the runway, in their wearable avatar, will be brought to over 150 Lakmé Salons in 50 plus cities, giving women a chance to experience a new expression of fashion through their hair.”
Moulin Rouge
Little Shilpa says “Styling for Lakmé Salon’s ‘Show Stopping Hair’ collection has been a fun and rewarding experience. I believe the brand has revolutionized the hair fashion arena in India by bringing to the fore creative and trendy styles. Lakmé Salon and I share a common belief that “Fashion goes beyond clothing”. Lakmé Salon’s vision of making Indian women runway ready, matches perfectly with my fashion style and statement.”
Illusion
The collection fluently delivered the message that show stopping fashion begins with hair. The prêt-à-porter versions of the Illusion, Metamorphosis and Moulin Rouge looks from the ‘Show Stopping Hair’ collection will be available at over 150 Lakmé Salons in the country.
Moulin Rouge
I would be sharing the images of the prêt-à-porter versions of the Illusion, Metamorphosis and Moulin Rouge looks in the next post.
But this was one unique concept and show. The hairstyles must have taken hours! I actually loved the whole enthusiasm and energy of the models, designer Little Shilpa and Shailesh behind the whole show.

Garnier Pure Active Deep Pore Unclogging Face Wash Review
By Raunak
Garnier Pure Active is a breakthrough formula which has the unique association of two powerful actives – Salicylic acid with powerful anti-bacterial properties, and Herbal repair with natural repairing and regenerating properties. Clinically tested on acne prone skin, it’s maximum strength formula works immediately on imperfections and delivers visible results from day one.
Its Secret? An unprecedented association in the formula which fights imperfections and their marks: • Concentrated Salicyclic acid is one of the most efficient exfoliant actives. • .The proven power of plants: HERBAREPAIR is natural active extracted from VacciniumMyrtillus with exceptional regenerating and skin-repairing properties
Ingredients:
Directions:
MRP: Rs.79/- for 50g
My take:
So after using the product for a while, winters and summers ( hence the time taken for the review),I just wanted to test the credibility of the all product when it comes to using this for oily skin. Because we all know oily and acne prone skin becomes a mess in summers.
Garnier Pure Active Pore Unclogging Wash is a pale blue face wash with liquid like consistency. It lathers easily and washes without leaving any residue. It has got a minty smell and it gives a cool, refreshed, cleansed skin hence I feel its a perfect facewash for the summers. However, I wish that the cool feeling lasted longer.
What the product is good at:
• It smells fresh and minty, which totally freshens me up after a hot day outside.
• The skin is left squeaky clean after using this.
• It’s not drying so will suit dry skin.
• The price is quite reasonable.
• It leaves skin feeling so minty kind of cool (cos of menthol). It’s simply wow.
It does help me avoid new acne but the marks do not go away. And also it is not like it prevents acne completely I still got my once in a while acne. Yes I did. While I can say that I am a fan of their scrub from this range. This one is a miss. The scrub is a HIT.
So after six months of using the scrub and wash religiously, It is a conclusion that the scrub is worth a try for oily-normal skin. But the wash can be given a miss for oily skin type. Can be used for normal skin type.
Thanks again bhumi for sending the products. Hope you all get some insight about these two products after reading my through, lengthy and time consuming ( months….errrr) review.

Experiencing Renault Duster AWD with Blogadda at Lavasa
Hey everyone,
After experiencing the all new Tata Zest at Goa,when I again got a call to experience the all new Renault All Wheel Duster this time at Lavasa, I was all in for it. I was not expecting something so soon though. Blogadda is super quick now 😀
So we left Mumbai yesterday at 4 pm and reached Pune at night. Checked in at Marriott Courtyard, Hinjwadi, Pune. We had our dinner, chilled out a bit at the hotel (also came to know it was Blogadda’s birthday!) and went to our rooms later prepping up (by catching on some sleep :p ) for the adventurous next day.
Courtyard Marriott, Hinjewadi, Pune
After the scrumptious breakfast in the morning, we left for Lavasa at 8.30. It took around 2 hours and reached by 11. We took the off-road drive to test the new Renault Duster.
There were 2-3 people in each car. And luckily I sat in a car where Rutavi and Omkar were both amazing drivers. Our car was no. 05. Also famous as the most dirty car at the end of it! 😀 Omkar was the best man for this job. He actually ‘tested’ the All Wheel Duster in the real sense. You know what I mean. I was sitting behind, but I could feel the control and grip of the car.
New Renault Duster AWD
The car was turning left and right, swish swash in a jiffy. And the brakes are super, I know coz we were in full speed and just about to dash another car, but the Renault Duster’ s brakes and Omkar saved our lives 😀
The Duster AWD offers three modes – two(front)-wheel drive, automatic and manually locked four-wheel drive. Renault says the car should be used in two-wheel drive or automatic mode and the four-wheel drive locked mode should only be used at slow speeds for really heavy work.
Me, Rutavi and Omkar posing with our Duster- No. 05Selfie with the Duster- Activity (Me and Rutavi)
We did the mud splash, rocky road trails and some steep climbing. We could actually see what/how well the car can go through these. The new suspension in the AWD is also fabulous. I could hardly feel any bumpers or jerks in like huge speed brakers and potholes.
Drift & mud Splash (This was like a roller coaster ride :p )
Sharp cliff climbing with mud splash (This was the scariest! But it actually went through much easily than expected.)
Some pics of the breathtaking view from Pune to Lavasa and in Lavasa.
We drove till 1.30-45 and were super hungry later. Had our lunch at Fortune Hotel at Lavasa.
Desserts at Lunch time at Fortune Hotel, Lavasa
And later drove back to Mumbai. Had a pit stop at our favorite Dutta Snacks and had vada pav and tea.
Happy Us!Mumbai Bloggers with the Blogadda team
A short fun trip. An amazing experience. The adventurous drive in Renault Duster was the best part. It was frankly, the most adventurous ride of my life, all thanks to Omkar 😀 But, still I enjoyed it.
Thank you Blogadda for having me experience the New All Wheel Drive Renault Duster.
P.S: This blogpost is written as a part of #DusterAllWheelDrive event by Blogadda and Renault India.

Ingredients:
My take:
Packaging simply lovely pink tube. Don’t we all love when we have simple products with packaging in bright colours in our vanity? Just lifts my mood. Hehe.
So the packaging is sturdy the brush is the standard mascara brush. It has matt finish and it is thick non dripping mascara.
I have used it for about 3 months. Finished all of it and only then I am ready ti give its review.
Al in all great for everyday use. Little steep on the price (when I checked the price online). Nothing that cannot be lived without.
Just a good everyday pink tube to have.
Pros of the mascara:
• Matt. Good for everyday use.
• Smudge proof.
• Waterproof.
• Single coat does the job.
Cons of the mascara:
• Nothing special really. No length or visible thickness of my lashes.
Will I buy it? NO!

Oriflame Beauty Studio Artist Gel Liner Review, Swatches What the Company claims: Oriflame Beauty Studio Artist Gel Eyeliner gives the precision line of liquid eyeliner for professional and smudge-free results. The smooth texture of the gel eye liner delivers rich color and even coverage and ensures long-lasting luring eyes for up to 24 hours. It comes with a slanted brush applicator that gives smooth and flawless effects.
MRP: Rs.449/- for 3g It comes in a small glass pot and a small slanted brush alongwith.. Its rich and deep..and matte black..good pigmentation..can be easily layered..I quite like it for tighlining..gives precise definition..
Texture wise, it is quite soft but not that smooth..I like the fact that the small brush can be used for travel and no need to carry a separate brush..but for regular use,I wish it came with a longer brush too,as holding that small brush and lining is sometimes difficult.
It stays on for 8 hours plus on my upper lashline with minimal fading. But it sets quickly and layering over it does not go smooth.
Pros: 1. Rich black 2. Very creamy. 3. Glides on well..no tugging or pulling. 4. Small travel friendly brush. 5. Stays put quiet long. 6. Its often available at a discount..and the qty is more than other gel liners..like Maybelline and L’oreal..so quite economical. Cons: 1. I wish there was a longer brush too along. 2. Available only through reps. Overall, I would say its a nice rich black, matte gel liner..and buttery in texture..comes with a nice travel friendly brush too..if you love gel liners, you should definitely try this. Rating:
Quality: 3.6/5 Value for money: 4/5 Availability: 3.5/5
Overall rating: 3.5/5
Would I buy it again: Maybe
Have you tried the Oriflame Beauty Studio Artist Gel Eyeliner ??
