Beauty/Makeup Haul: Nykaa & Amazon

Hi guys,

I got some stuff from Nykaa and Amazon, it’s been a few months though that I recorded this video. I was waiting since a long time to upload it coz it was something or the other coming up in between.

Sorry I forgot to use the mic in the first half, so the focus noise 🙁

Let’s see what all I picked from Nykaa.com

Whisper Sanitary Pad Ultra Clean XL Wings (30S) – Rs. 310
La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo+ Corrective Unclogging Anti Imperfection Care (40ml) – Rs. 1300
Free La Roche-Posay Effaclar Gel
Maybelline Color Sensational Pink Alert in POW4 3.9gm – Rs. 425
L’Oreal Paris Color Riche Moist Matte Lipstick in Spring Rossette 4.2gm – Rs. 740 (On discount :p)
Colorbar Definer Lip Liner in Berry Rose 1.45gm – Rs. 599
Tangle Teezer Compact Styler Detangling Brush- Purple/Black – Rs. 1099 (It’s expensive :o)
Hill Fresh Grapefruit Rush Body Wash 200ml – Rs. 199
Oisis Make Me Happy Bath & Shower Gel 300ml – Rs. 249
2 of Bare Essentials Nail Polish Remover Pads – Rs. 198 (99 each)
Lux Velvet Touch Moisturizing Body Wash 100ml – Rs. 120
Vega Premium Eyelash Curler – Rs. 99
Fair & Lovely BB Cream 9gm – Rs. 49
Basicare Self Holding Rollers Large (Pack Of 4) – Rs. 200
Neutrogena Deep Clean Facial Cleanser – Rs. 95
Aroma Magic Turmeric Cleanser – Rs. 135
Christine Valmy Val Clean II 50ml – Rs. 195

And coming to Amazon.in, if you have noticed Amazon started with their luxury beauty department where they stock all high end brands. I got a chance to try out the luxury beauty department and this is what I got:

Kama Ayurveda Mridual Soap-Free Facial Cleanser 40g- Rs.295/-
Forest Essentials Kashmiri Saffron and Neem Delicate Facial Cleanser 200ml – Rs. 975

I wanted to try these both since a long time but never really went to the store for just 1 product and you know how it is with Forest Essentials, once you go into the store, you want everything and get confused most of the times 😀 I am glad we can buy these Luxury Beauty brands including a few which are not available in India, on Amazon.in now 🙂

I hope you liked my haul, do let me know if you want any specific review first. I will try and use them before, coz there are still a few reviews in line already :/

Vega Eye Smudger and Reversible Lip Filler Review

Vega Eye Smudger and Reversible Lip Filler Review


Vega Eye Smudger EV 22

What the Company claims: To create soft liner color for a smoky effect. Start with powder cake liner or pencil and follow with this firm PVC foam eraser like tip to smudge off excess to create the smoky look desired. Professional size. Sponge Tip.

MRP: Rs. 60/-

They also have an Eye Smudger in the Professional Range PB-18 but I have not seen that online available…otherwise would have picked up that..

But since I have used this..lets talk about this first…it has a foam like tip..not the soft spongy tips which we get with the normal eye shadow quads which powder up in few uses..this is stiff and softens the harsh liner..I use this almost everyday for the smokey eye effect..just some dark rich black eye pencil like the Bourjois Kohl and Contour on the upper lashline and smoke it out with this..and I am good to go. And also for smudging the base for smokey eyes..

This is like so perfect for smokey eyes..quite similar to the Body Shop Line Softener..which obviously is much better..that costs Rs. 325/-

I suggest one can get this and try out smokey eyes with this..and then get the Body Shop Line Softener..as of now I am really loving it..! Economical, easy to use and easy to maintain..totally recommended.

Vega Reversible Lip Filler PV 23

What the Company claims: Vega Lip Filler is an ideal accompaniment to lipstick and lip color. It is perfect for detailing along the lips and applying the color evenly and consistently. It is an ideal product to carry in the purse.

MRP: Rs. 160/-

Well we do need a lip filler when using some deep darker shades like reds, plums, etc..I use this mostly with my Inglot Freedom System Lipsticks.

This is so small and convenient to carry along..and reverse the brush into the cap and its almost the size of a finger..

I have washed it many times..and it has just shed 1-2 hair..I find it super easy to use Inglot lipsticks or some red lipstick with this..as I can also control the intensity of the shade by layering.

If you have Inglot Freedom System Lipsticks, I recommend you give this a try…ya the only con is it does not fit in the Inglot Palette 🙁

Overall I like both of these and surely recommend them..you can buy the Body Shop Line Softener instead of the Eye Smudger..but if you wish to try a cheaper alternative..this is it..
