Goodmorning Everyone,

Its 5 am and I have just prepared a cup of masala chai for myself. I am obsessed with Tea ! The Britishers certainly left something for me. Their Tea Obsession ! So I just glanced at my dining table from the kitchen where yesterday evening`s spontaneous buys were waiting to be tried on by me.

I am very proud of my beauty buys even before trying them out. I have this feeling related to beauty products which almost always turns out right. I call it my BI, my beauty intuition or shall I say beauty intelligence….naaaaaah its beauty intuition ! So my BI kicks in whenever I see a new product and tells me that having this will do me good and that I need to have it in my vanity…and I always totally end up listening to it…and I go ahead and buy that thing. So, while I was out buying some necessities at my local store yesterday evening, and while I was paying for the stuff at the paying counter, my BI kicked in just when I spotted a stand with some of the Nail Enamels. Of all the bottles that were perched there two of them so very strikingly appealed to me that I just told the person billing pointing at the rack…Please add that one and that one to my cart…then as I opened by wallet to pay for the stuff I noticed a little box with these little penlike thingies standing proudly…I recognized what these were but never really got down to buying one ever so I just started smelling them one by one…and there was this light blue one that I really liked…so there it went into my cart as well. Then suddenly I remembered that I was soon gonna be out of NP remover and when I looked for one in the store I spotted a new one (well, new for me) and decided to give it a try… JLT ! ( Just Like That ) and ofcourse guided by my BI :)

So I bought these four beauty products yesterday and I`m so in love with them now after having tried them…yes at 4:30 am :)

They are the Maybelline Colorshow Nail Enamels in 012 Devil Wears Purple and 213 Feisty Fuschia, a Nail Polish Cleanser by Insight and a Perfumed Mini Deo by Eva in Fresh.

The Maybelline Colorshow Nail Enamels in 012 Devil Wears Purple and 213 Feisty Fuschia – Each for Rs 75/- for 6 ml:

In my numerous trips to the mall I somehow managed to miss these gorgeous colors. But yesterday at the local store, the colors of the nail enamels looked so beautiful in the bottles that I just couldn’t resist buying them. 012 Devil Wears Purple is a bright purple shade which appears frosty in the bottle as well as on application. The first coat is really sheer and the second coat gave me a decent color on the nails. However I feel I can even go with a third coat to get the real Devilish effect. Its great that the nail polish is so buildable and you can have a very sheer purple on your nails or a dark bright sassy purple as per your mood and need.

213 Feisty Fuschia is a bright girlie bubblegum pink shade. It has a creamy finish and the color in the first coat itself comes out pretty intense, a second one will only enhance its intensity and longevity on the nails. It is a really opaque polish with nothing sheer about it. Both the colors are so pretty, fashionable and have that youthful quality about them. I feel they are a must for every teenager atleast. I haven’t talked about the quality of the brush and the consistency of the polish here coz I have already written about these in some of my previous Maybelline Colorshow Nail Enamel posts HERE and HERE.

Eva Perfumed Mini Deo in Fresh - 9ml for Rs 50/-

The perfume packaging was really attractive and there were three variants with different smells…a pink one, a purple one and a light blue one (which I bought). I hurriedly smelled all of them and really liked the blue one. It struck me as a very sweet smelling fresh n fruity fragrance which was very strong. Just two or three spritzes would be ENOUGH !!! for people to be smelling you from a meter away and the lasting power seems really good too….I`d say about 3-4 hours…Suuuper!!! What more could you want from a portable 9ml Rs 50/- mini deo… and yeah it’s a deo not a perfume…that’s what I bought thinking it to be…so a plus for its deodorant qualities too. Although the spritzer itself is a bit flimsy and it throws out the product very clumsily … like its not really wanting to come out… if you know what I mean ! But whatever comes out is really potent and I really love the smell of this blue one!

Insight Perfumed Polish Cleanser - 60 ml/1.7 fl oz for Rs 40/-

This comes in a plastic bottle which says that it is a perfumed acetone free nail polish cleanser. I chose the one in the smaller size in the yellow bottle having the Lemon fragrance. There were few other variations as well…strawberry, mint etc. It came sealed and I had to punch a hole on top to get the product out. The Lemon fragrance of the product is really nice as opposed to the pungent smell of other regular nail polish removers. The best part was how effectively it removed my existing nail enamel from my nails….It was real robust and real quick in removing the polish from my nails which were painted in atleast two thick coats. The product smelled really nice and fresh and did not over dry my nails too, infact they felt soft and moisturised. I was so pleased with its performance that I am planning to stock up on these. The only problem I noticed is that while photographing it when the bottle was lying flat on the surface the product leaked out. So it maybe difficult to travel with this product. But I am sure that I can do some product shifting in a more travel-friendly way if I really like the product which I honestly do. You guys should definitely check it out around your local stores or maybe online. Insight is a Brand by VOV International and I have seen several beauty products under this brand in the market… shampoos, lotions etc. maybe in the 99 Store if I am not wrong, so it maybe worth a try there.

So beauties these were by spontaneous beauty buys of yesterday evening and I am so very happy that I bought them. I will only be trusting my BI more from now on !
