Hi, Hope you all are doing well ?

Does it sound a bit formal ?

Well thats what beginning of the week signifies...Office work, routine and the dragwalk to the office after the weekend fun ! But work doesn`t have to be boring nomore. We girls have a major advantage of shifting our moods in any direction we want simply with the choice of the shades we choose for doing our makeup. Not only with colors can we spice up our wardrobe but cheer up our moods as well and gear up for the most heinous tasks ahead of us.

So I`m gonna show you all two nail enamel shades which are appropriate for work/office and the like and are not only sophisticated but have that pizzzzaaaz quality which can make any get up look put together and chic! I`m talking about the nail enamels from Oriflame. These were sent to me by Oriflame, India for reviewing. I have worn both these shades during the past week and they were a pleasure to sport on my fingernails.

Oriflame “MORE by Demi” Nail Polish in BROWN

These nail enamels are a part of the “More by Demi” Collection for which the brand ambassador is Demi Moore. She looks sultry in every pic in the Oriflame Catalogue. She is perfect woman to represent this collection as the makeup palette, lipstick and nail enamel shades are sophistication personified just like Demi Moore herself. The collection depicts Hollywood glamour meets fairy tale splendour !

The glass nailpoish bottles are rectangular with a golden lid onto which I can see myself very clearly...Yes, I do have a mirror in my house...I was only hinting at the packaging quality! The nail polishes are priced at Rs. 399/- for a 7ml / 0.2 fl. Oz bottle.

The first shade is named TEA ROSE which is a neutral shade with baby pink undertones or should I say it is a baby pink with neutral undertones...either way it is a beautiful light shade which looks close to natural when worn on the nails. The second shade is a dark brown color named BROWN. It has hint of maroon undertones. Both these shades are capable of making an outfit look put together.

The texture of both the nail polishes is quite creamy-looking and the consistency is pretty thick. The colors are bold and rich. They give an even finish in the first application itself. The after effect is a high gloss finish of the nail enamel.

But a slight drawback that I noticed was that the nail polishes took around 10-15 minutes to dry. Being the impatient creature that I am, 15 minutes was pretty long for me to not fidget with anything around. I am quite used to the quickdrying nail enamels and almost always end up denting my polish if it takes too long to dry. It would be really nice if we could get the exact same creamshine finish with a fast drying formula.

It doesn`t stain the nails much after removal (another hint that good quality ingredients have been used) and removal is easy with a regular nailpolish remover.

I would recommend these nail enamels if you want great looking quality nail enamels for your nails. The packaging is beautiful and the enamels are decently priced. They look awesome after drying and has a very smooth and high shine glossy finish and thats the main point which impressed me. Just be sure you give the enamel have enough time to dry before you start using your hands for any other work.

My rating : 8.5 /10

Points deducted only because of slow drying.

Hello Everyone :)

In this video and blogpost I am reviewing the Oriflame Pure Nature Tea Tree And Rosemary Facial Kit which was so graciously sent to me by Oriflame, India.

They were really nice to ask me my skintype and accordingly sent me the products.

THANKYOU VERY MUCH ORIFLAME ! I was absolutely delighted to use all the products from this kit. They did a lot of good to me :)

So this kit is priced at 1199/- INR. The kit contains four full sized skin care products namely the Oriflame Pure Nature Tea Tree and Rosemary Wash and Tone Gel, Scrub, Mask and Face Cream.

Oriflame Pure Nature TeaTree and Rosemary Purifying Wash and Tone Gel, Scrub, Mask and Cream

Oriflame Pure Nature TeaTree and Rosemary Purifying Wash and Tone Gel

Oriflame Pure Nature TeaTree and Rosemary Purifying Scrub

Oriflame Pure Nature TeaTree and Rosemary Purifying Mask

Oriflame Pure Nature TeaTree and Rosemary Purifying Face Cream

TeaTree Oil And Rosemary are anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and soothing ingredients which are beneficial for acne-prone combination to oily skin. I used this kit for a whole week without using any skincare products from any other brand and I was very pleased with the results. My skin felt invigorated with the added benefit of moisturization and not even a single zit appeared during the week I was regularly using these products. I even wore a lot of makeup that week but still there was no sign of a single pimple anywhere on my face. So I can confidently say that my skin was certainly PURIFIED !

One of the main advantages of buying this kit would be that one gets to use all the products from the same line together. So whatever special ingredients are there in the products, their effect gets intensified so they do their job very well and the results are visible earlier than usual.

Here is a step by step pictorial of how I used everything in the kit and achieved a glowing spotless plump skin.

First washed my face with the Oriflame Pure Nature TeaTree and Rosemary Wash and Tone Gel

Then applied the gritty Oriflame Pure Nature TeaTree and Rosemary Purifying Scrub

Moisturised my face with the Oriflame Pure Nature TeaTree and Rosemary Purifying Face Cream

End Result after using the Oriflame Pure Nature TeaTree and Rosemary Purifying Face Kit

Really Happy with the results of The Oriflame Pure Nature TeaTree and Rosemary Purifying Face Kit

So that`s why I would highly recommend this kit for people who have problematic combination to oily skin or who are just looking for a weekly to twice a weekly purifying and soothing face treatment. It is definitely worth a try.

BOURJOIS 123 Perfect FOUNDATION Review

Hey Everyone !

In this video I am reviewing the Bourjois 123 Perfect Liquid Foundation which I purchased recently.

BOURJOIS 123 Perfect FOUNDATION

SWATCH : No. 54 BEIGE : BOURJOIS 123 Perfect FOUNDATION

BLENDED ON HAND : No. 54 BEIGE : BOURJOIS 123 Perfect FOUNDATION

It is a non-oily liquid foundation which comes in a glass bottle with a pump dispenser. I chose the shade 54 Beige as it was neutral toned and suited my skin tone the best. The other two shades in this foundation range were slightly more pink and yellow for my skintone.The finish of this product is velvety soft and the coverage is moderate to high, based on layering up of the product. It has a pleasant powdery smell. It is priced at 1540 INR for 30 ml or 1 fl.Oz. bottle. Lasting is a good 16 hrs as claimed on the packaging and yes it does last pretty long with touching up wit a powder just once throughout the day.

Highlight of this product are the three corrective pigments :

1 : YELLOW PIGMENTS:

anti-dark circles

2 : MAUVE PIGMENTS:

anti-dull complexion

3 : GREEN PIGMENTS :

anti-redness

I used my favourite Sephora Professional Mineral Powder Brush which was slightly damp to apply this foundation to get a dewy finish. It never lets me down.

So Overall I highly recommend this foundation.

Hello Ladies :)))

I am so excited to share my latest Haul with you all :))))))))))))

I couldn`t control the urge anymore to order me some goodies from the so buzzed about website PRETTYSECRETS.COM

I had been eyeing it for sometime but only recently did some shopping for some necessary items that I needed. (Necessary ?... Well, everything I buy online or offline I feel is necessary though to some it may not feel like so ! )

Anyways, so the package arrived and I was thrilled :))) I pulled out my camera and immediately started the work for you all to have a look at what and how Prettysecret serves its products to its clients...So here`s the deal ...

PRETTYSECRETS.COM HAUL : This is how I received it ...

PRETTYSECRETS.COM HAUL : Just tore it open... Ha Ha Ha (Please excuse my impatience of not opening the package neatly and taking a neat pic )

PRETTYSECRETS.COM HAUL : Two beautiful coral pink cardboard boxes emerged...with the lovely Prettysecrets logo ...the cute bow... right on top

PRETTYSECRETS.COM HAUL : Thats how the boxes look from below... Did you all notice the round stickers with which the lid is sealed...feminity to the core...I`m all about the details...

PRETTYSECRETS.COM HAUL : On opening the boxes...

PRETTYSECRETS.COM HAUL : When I opened the boxes...My stuff was wrapped in white tissue paper (I just love things wrapped in tissue paper)... Extremely pleased with the packaging..There were surprise gifts in each box as well...Wow :)

PRETTYSECRETS.COM HAUL : I ordered these Berry Active Full Length pants to wear while going for walks or just lounging around at home... Just adore the glittery Prettysecrets logo on the left side

PRETTYSECRETS.COM HAUL : Full view of the Berry Active Full Length pants

PRETTYSECRETS.COM HAUL : I also ordered some sleepwear... Sleeping Shorts ... They are so cute looking, the fabric is really soft and they supercomfy to sleep in...

PRETTYSECRETS.COM HAUL : Next was this lingerie...

I was a little apprehensive about putting up these pics here (for obvious reasons) but then I thought...Oh, what the fish...I`ll do it... coz the whole idea of me writing this blog was to give my readers a clear perspective on things...so that they get help while making their own choices .

So anyways, I ordered the Soft Nude with Pink Lining Allure Invisi-Bra which was available at a BUY 2 GET 1 OFFER...currently running on Prettysecrets... so that`s what I did... I ordered two and got one free... I can describe them in detail but all I would like to say here is that they very comfortable.

And last but not the least were these surprise gifts that came out of the boxes...These are coasters made out of foam with the comic style art on them which look really cool sitting on my study...Thankyou Prettysecrets :)

So that completes my Prettysecrets Haul...I hope you all enjoyed reading/watching it as much as I did receiving the items...
