Hey guys welcome back ,how have you been? First of all sorry for being MIA for quite some time now,but i have a reason for that and it's my niece.My sister came to visit us and my niece as well obviously hehe :) she is just an angle so cute so adorable with that being said she is also a shaitan ki nani(Very Naughty child).We have to be around all the time,cuz constantly she keep doing one thing or the other and we have to keep n eye on her as to what she is up to.So that's the reason behind my absence and i am sure u guys would definitely understand that what i am talking about:)

Today i wanna share a brand new launch by Maybelline and these are called Color blur By Lipstudio Cream Matte Pencil & Smudger and it's a product from my US haul.You guys,since the day i saw this product i've been wanting these,cuz everyone was raving about these a lot.So i wanted to try these out ,you guys know we can't have these amazing products in india and that makes us even more excited about the products which are not easily available here hence when i got the chance to order these i just grabbed them.



Product- Maybelline color blur cream matte lips pencil comes in 10 shades.In this line you get plums,berry mauve,oranges,pinks and reds.That's a good variety to choose from.I picked up My-My Magenta and Berry Misbehaved.I chose these shades cuz i find these very different and unique yet pretty wearable shades.

1. Pink Insanity 
2. Fast & Fuchsia
3. Berry Misbehaved 
4. Orange Ya Glad
5. Cherry Cherry Bang Bang 
6. Partner In Crimson 
7. Plum Please 
8. My-My Magenta
9. I'm Blushing
10. I Like To Mauve It

The idea behind this product is you can wear  two ways,either a fully saturated lip or you can go for a gradient/blurred or ombre lip,that tends to be a big trend in asia.What you can do is ,just fill the color in the center of your lips and with the opposite end which is a rubbery applicator pull the color outwards,which will give the blurred effect to your lips.

Hey guys welcome back .I am back with another glowing post.You must be thinking why glowing ? isn't? Yaaas glowing,shiny and glittery too cuz it's about another drugstore highlighter and it's Wet n wild Mega Glo Illuminating powder in Catwalk pink.You guys would already know by now that i am all about highlighting lately.Although i wasn't into highlighting but always used to feel curious about this highlighting thing and now finally i decided to hop into this bandwagon of highlighting and contouring. 

So lets get started :)






Product-First of all i so wanted to like this product but still after trying so many times,i am not liking it.May be i got a bad one or a old product dunno what's wrong with mine and i am sad about it. I have seen people raving about it and i am unable to figure out ,what the hype is all about :(

Catwalk pink is a rose toned illuminating powder when all colors are swirled together.If you have fair skin tone it would act like a blush on your skin but for deeper skin tones it would act like a highlighter.


The highlighter has four coordinating color strips which can be used individually or can be mixed together for a subtle glow.It has a champagne gold,a pink toned silver,a bronze and a golden shade.All colors look pretty in pan,but when you swatch you will see that there are some hits and misses.The bronze shade is least pigmented among all the shades and including this all the colors are very powdery and chalky,very hard to work with.If you have deeper skin tone ,the bronze color would not show up on your skin at all ,whereas the pink toned silver is very smooth and buttery.The one thing i didn't like that these colors are not pigmented enough to show up on deeper skin tones and very hard to blend on the face.

Hey guys welcome back.If u are a reader of my blog u already know about my US haul ,i have a separate detailed post on it if you wanna read that ,you can read it Here.
Since the day i got my stuff i have been using few things and playing with them to know more about them.So today i have a post on one of the products i got in my US haul.I'll be reviewing each product individually from my US haul in my future posts.

So let's get started :)

Today i am gonna talk about a product which is a drugstore face and body baked bronzer,and it's Milani Tantastic Face & Body Baked Bronzer in 01 Fantastic gold. For fair girls it can work like a bronzer but for medium to deeper skin tone girls it will actually work like a highlighter rather than a bronzer.It can be used as a eyeshadow as well ,if you wish to. 



Packaging - This product caught my attention because of its packaging ,this is something which is very unusual for a drugstore product.The packaging of Lorac Tantalizer and Milani baked bronzer is exactly the same.Both are slightly bulky.I do like the black writing over it which is also a similarity between both the bronzers,because of the fact that some people say it is a dupe for lorac bronzer it looks more luxurious to be a drugstore Bronzer/highlighter.




The lid is transparent so you can see the product inside and it slide sideways, just like the upper lid it has a brush compartment as well underneath the product. I dun use the brush it comes with cuz it is little flimsy and not good for application.





It is really hard to read it with the mirror isn't it ? 

STICKER AT THE BOTTOM

This is after it's taken off .The details are on this sticker only..

MIRROR AT THE BOTTOM

WHEN IT'S ALL OPEN

When i got the product there is one thing which i found odd and  i was very intrigued by it.There is a mirror at the bottom part of the product.The mirror is exposed completely and can break or crack easily.Which makes it less travel friendly.Seriously it can shatter and it's not safe at all.


Formula- Being a dupe for the Lorac Bronzer it has some similarities but i am pretty sure the formula and texture is not exactly the same but quite similar.Since it's a drugstore product how can we expect that $8 product will match the standards of a $33 product,it will be little unfair.The product itself is really pretty it has peach tones in it which makes it very wearable for people with medium to deeper skin tone.I am not saying that fair girls can't rock this,definitely they can.



It is quite shimmery and glittery and it's very easy to apply too much of this and you'll get a glittery look rather.So you need a light hand on it and it will give you the most subtle and healthy glow which we girls want :)

It is subtle enough so it doesn't look too shiny or shimmery on the face,when applied correctly.You just need a little and you are good to go.It does have a fallout issue,but not on face unless you have a heavy hand,so be careful while applying .

Swatches-

FLASH

NO FLASH

This is a heavy swatch to show up the actual color.You dun need to use it heavy hand ..

Availability- I orderd it from www.drugstore.com 

Price-Original price around $8.49 and i got it for $6.79 after  20% discount.
Net wt- 0.24 oz/7g

Pros-

• Very versatile shade and suitable for all skin tones 
• Texture and formula is also workable
• Gives a healthy glow when applied correctly  
• Very affordable 
• A very good dupe for a $33 product
• Packaging is bit luxurious 

cons-

• Does give fallouts 
• Not travel friendly
• Mirror can break easily
• can go wrong with it,if applied wrong way

Thanks for reading see you in my next post.. 
xoxo :)

Hey lovelies welcome back today i have a hair tool review for you guys which i have been using for quite a while now and i am loving it.

I  have had pretty thick hair and to be frank i never cared about them and because of that now i am facing the consequences of not taking care of them hence they have become frizzy and unmanageable with that i am losing hair too. If your hair are prone to tangles,it could have been worse than this? If you have frizzy hairs like me you know that they tend to get tangled easily specially in this humid weather,no matter what you use to condition the hair ,they will remain the same and by the end of the day my hair at the nape of my neck is pretty much a birds nest of tangles.



My hair have become fragile lately and i am scared of using combs and brushes in my hair cuz they dun remove tangles but they definitely break my hair while removing tangles/knots and the pain ohh gosh dun ask about it ..I even dun felt like combing my hair sometimes with the regular brushes cuz i was scared of the breakage, which a normal comb or a brush gives u while combing hence i wanted something which can remove the tangles without breaking the hair.Seeing a comb full with hair strands is not less than a nightmare isn't it.



So a product named TANGLE TEEZER that's designed to effortlessly and painlessly remove tangles is just a blessing for me.This is hands down the best and most effective tool i have ever used when it comes to painlessly working through tangles.

For my entire life i have had to hold my hair in sections at top of my scalp before even attempting to work a comb or a brush through it.If you have long hair you probably know what i am talking about ,if you dun hold your hair at the top of your scalp,you risk breaking your hair and causing major pain while trying to comb out the tangles.Well all that changed when i used Tangle teezer.No longer do i have to grip my hair in preparation to work out my tangles.I can run this tool through my hair without worrying about the pain or breakage which a normal comb can cause.



Before i tried Tangle Teezer i was using wide tooth comb to brush my hair instead of a normal hair brush cuz i have heard these are better to use.However, the comb constantly pulling and breaking my hair.After using it i have noticed my hair doesn't break or fall out as much as it used to ,and everytime i use it my hair feels much more smooth and manageable.




This tool is a Miracle and a blessing for people who have dry frizzy and tangle prone hair.This is a magical tool which removes tangle like a dream and it works just as easily on wet hair as it does on dry hair.That completely means that you can use it both ways.

The tangle teezer is small and compact as the brush shape is curvy it can easily fit in your palm but don't let its size fool you.The bristles are short and varying in lengths,which is the key to how this whole magical tool works on your stubborn hair.

























 I have the Golden Goddess Tangle Teezer which is gold and black,making it stylish and good looking  I opted for the compact styler version because it's smaller than other models and fits snugly into your handbag and so makes for a fantastic travel accessory. This tangle teezer also comes with a "click on" and "click off" cover to protect  the teeth from dust and fluff so its ready to use every time.




Cons-The only con i have for this amazing tool is that the bristles on the compact styler is so short, they dun reach the underneath sections of my hair ,so in order to brush through it fully i have to section it up and it works beautifully this way.

Availability - I got mine from amazon but its available almost on all websites ..

Price-INR 899/-

Hey guys welcome back.....Online US shopping ? Confused where to shop from? Don't worry i'll help you :)

Pic credit-Icon Archive

 I dunno where to start from cuz i have so much to tell you guys about my US Shopping and experience with the US websites.This is something which is very important when you are shopping ONLINE from India and you wanna order stuff from the various US websites cuz you dunno anything about their policies.I am saying this by my experience which i had while shopping and at first i was in a search for a post or any article online as to what we are  suppose to do while shopping from India or any sort of knowledge about these websites so i don't face any problem while shopping and if i could find something like this ,it would have been really helpful but sadly i didn't find any.I just went in without any knowledge.

Today i am gonna share with you guys my shopping experience with few Us websites cuz i know it would be helpful for some of you guys who wants to shop online from india and dunno which website would be shopping friendly and which one would not .

I will go individually on each website in the same order i shopped from there so you can get the idea about all the websites.Would be Highlighting the website name with the color GREEN for yes, Red for no, Purple for may be.

1.Walmart-As you all know that walmart is a well known place for makeup lovers hence i was sure about there website walmart.com,so i went ahead with this one first.Walmart is a great place to shop for Maybelline,R.T,Hard candy, L'oreal, NYC, Flower, Covergirl, Rimmel, Revlon, Physicians Formula.You can get other brands like wet and wild and milani as well but with very limited stuff to choose from.You can't find Nyx there.The prices are very cheap compare to the other websites.The minimum shipping value to avail free shipping in the US keeps on fluctuating.The time i shopped from walmart it was $50 for free shipping in US and now at present it is $35 for free shipping.  

I got two set of Real technique core collection and two of   the starter set brushes for me and my sis from there,the first time i ordered and my amount reached almost $45 so i ended up buying one lipstick as well to make it $50 and to avail free shipping . 

The prices are very pocket friendly on walmart.com and the shipping is also very quick. My order reached me in max 1 week or so.

I haven't had any issue with walmart.com.It went all smoothly without any hassle despite the fact that i was shopping from India with a Indian CC. So It is a green signal from my side to this website.




2.Elf Cosmetics- Omg this website broke my heart initially after placing the order.Who doesn't love Elf ? I am sure everyone does and so do i.When i saw that elf has come up with some new launches i just wanted to get my hands on them anyhow.I went ahead and after making my shopping list i just placed my order and then after few hours i received a mail from them saying that they have cancelled my order cuz they dun ship to Hotels and Guest houses.I was like WHAAAAT? 

The best thing about the Elf's website is that they have live chat support.That means you can have a live one to one chat with the customer support team. After requesting and arguing with one of the C.C.E she firmly said we can't do anything we have such policy Ma'am and I am sorry but we are unable to do anything for you.You can shop from the NEW YORK ELF COSMETICS STORE.That's it and she ended from the live chat.

I was not happy about their policies and customer support cuz she wasn't at all interested in helping us out.
Then the second day we decided to chat with the customer care executive again asking if there is any chance of changing the address so that our order would not get cancelled and we can resume with our order cuz the money already got deducted once we placed the order.

The live chat facility starts in the evening according to the Indian time,the second day when i saw that live chat is open i contacted a C.C.E again and this one was very sweet and cooperative unlike the last one.She was listening to me and the matter very calmly.I said you don't ship to hotels and guest houses than people from outside America can't order your stuff cuz if you are not shipping at hotel that definitely means that only people from US can place the order on the website.Apparently people who are in US for vacations or some conference or any work purpose would stay in hotel they dun have a choice.Then they can't order from your website.What we are suppose to do ? You guys even dun ship to India.So she said Ma'am people order stuff with the shipping address of their hotels and guest houses and their order gets misplaced very easily and we dun want this to happen with our customers, so we are having this policy.She was somewhat right but at the same time it is unfair with people outside US. But then she said Ma'am let me consult to the managing team and i'll get back to you till then you please wait.

And she said i have talked to the managing team and for the sake of courtesy we are ready to ship your order.Finally i was feeling so relieved. 



Everyone knows that elf is a great brand with great prices.You can get amazing deals there cuz elf is on sale almost all time around the year.I got few things for me and my sister from elf which costed us around $40 .The delivery was also very quick and and you get many options to avail free shipping,like mentioned below. 

-Free shipping with No Minimum Purchase with first time email signup.

-Free shipping on Orders $25+, Code:SHIP25.

-Automatic Free Shipping on Orders $35+After Discount, No Code Needed!

Free or discounted shipping offers are based on $4.95 Standard US Shipping.

I am not sure about the fact that they have started shipping to Hotels or guest houses or not but if you are planning to order stuff from here and want to ship it to any hotel or so,definitely talk to the C.C.E before placing the order. 

I am not sure that whether i should give a green signal or red but for the matter of the fact that they still follow that policy so if you are going to order your stuff at some hotel or guest house it is a red signal for you and if you are going to order stuff at your relatives place who is a US RESIDENT or living in a rented house then there is green signal for you.Totally depends on the place where you wanna ship.So its a may be for me..

3.Ulta Beauty-OMG this is one of the website i wouldn't  recommend you guys because of the experience i had with this website,specifically for those who wants to shop online from india,or any other country.This is a website which is not at all shopping friendly for those who are not a US Resident,well i'll tell you why.This is the website i was most excited about and when i was shopping and ordering my stuff there was a sale going on at Ulta.com so i added the stuff i wanted to order in my cart ,but after trying two three times i ended up getting my card blocked then we read the shipping and delivery section and came to know that they dun accept international Credit cards,which i was'nt aware of.I was so annoyed with this policy of them,even i asked many youtubers who does US hauls very often on there respective channels but they were not aware of this fact either.My ulta.com experinced was very disappointing and it is definately a Red signal from my side. 

4.Drugstore.com-Drugstore.com is agian a website on which you can trust.This website is little pricey comparatively to walmart.com,but this website has some of the brands which you can't get at walmart.com like Nyx and Milani,wet and wild.You can totally trust there delivery as they ship pretty quick.Definately a Green signal for this website.




5.Walmart- Lastly when i could not shop from ulta i had to buy some newly launched products and i chose walmart again and shopped again from them.Totally a trustworthy website.





Time for the exciting news Drum roll moment :D


The exciting news i was talking about and i wanted to share is that when i was talking to them,the C.C.E told me that eyeslipsface.com might start there international shipping to india by the end of 2015.Isn't it a great news for all the elf lovers:).One of my  follower on instagram guessed it right. yaaaaaaaas dear they are coming to india according to the C.C.E  ;)

So these were the websites and my experience with them.Hope this post would be helpful for you guys ...

Thanks for reading and much love :) xoxo
