Boroline hacks: different ways of using it

2018-02-03T21:30:00.000+05:30

I think, I’m assuming but most of us Indians are already aware of what Boroline is. It is basically an Ayurvedic cream, with antiseptic properties. As it says in its packaging as well, it is enriched with natural lanolin, it protects and soften the skin. So now that we have an idea of what Boroline basically is, I might as well tell you the ways in which it can be used in ways that makes it more than just a cream. One more thing before starting, this is a heavy cream so for all the ones with oily skin I’d say it shouldn’t break you out but still be a little careful maybe do a patch test or something just to be on a safer side.

MRP- 34 Rs Quantity- 20g

Now let’s start:-

1) It can be used as a lipbalm to be kept overnight or also under your favourite matt liquid lipstick. Your lips will thank you for this. Keeping this overnight on your lips will make them soft and supple when you wake up in the morning, plus if you have any problem of chapped lips or something, this will take care of it.

2) Night cream, yes it can be used as night cream (preferably in winters, as it is a heavy cream) and your skin in the morning will be as smooth as a baby’s. It is really very good especially for dry skin. I have a combination skin but I use it as a night cream like once a week but only in winters, I cannot use it in summers. So oily skin people can give it a try first in small area to just have an idea of how it works on their skin.

3) Got a dry patch! I understand how irritating can it be in a weird way for the feeling cannot even be explained. The remedy you ask? Just apply a little Boroline in the affected area and keep it overnight. A thick layer would be good, it will all settle.

4) If you constantly suffer from dry hands and feet, this is the best solution. Take a good amount and massage your hands and feet with it. You’ll wake up with smooth hands and feet in the morning but try doing it every day before you sleep. If not every day, maybe 3-4 times a week.

5) As a handcream, not just at night, but during the day as well. It will keep your hands all nice and moisturized and it has a good smell too. The size of it is just perfect to keep it in your handbag, carry it everywhere you go so that your pretty hand can always be moisturized.

6) This is quite interesting. Well, if you’re like me and have problem with artificial jewellery, this might come in handy for you. Apply Boroline on the part of the earing that goes inside your earhole, I don’t exactly know what would that be called but I hope you can understand through my explanation. So, put that part through your ears after applying Boroline on it. For me, although it did help the first time I did it, but it was more helpful when I did it 3-4 times, so that my ears can get used to the metal without any infection. Honestly, it was a bit painful the because somehow the metal was't suiting my ears and I was doing it 3-4 times but not on consecutive days, instead after 2-3 days to give some rest to my ears, I was able to wear artificial earrings.

If you by any chance are wondering about the packaging, then I must tell you that it I am not a big fan of it, I mean it is extremely basic in the sense that it comes in a olive green cardboard box inside which is an aluminium tube, which also has the same colour. Also the fact that it can leak without opening the cap if you press it too hard is true. For the aluminium tube is very thin and gets holes from anywhere in the middle on pressing too hard. So just keep these things in mind about the packaging but for 34RS I don’t think the packaging should stop you from buying it because the qualities of the product overpowers the packaging.

I would like to conclude now by saying that above are some of the ways in which I have used this product, there can be many many more ways of using it, I would really like ‘you’, the one who is reading this and has used this cream in any other way to share it by commenting down below, I would love to know how have you used it.

I end my post here, lots and lots of love and peace upon you.

Have a cold?? Best home remedy is here

2018-01-20T12:13:00.002+05:30

One thing that happened the most to me in 2017, without fail was cold. I kept catching cold almost every single month and in November it happened thrice. This surely must be hard to believe but it did. This was the moment I realized that whatever I have eaten, i.e all the junk food plus the perks (sarcasm intended) of living in Delhi, one of the most polluted city is that you will keep catching cold if you don’t have a good immune system. I had to do something about it because now I was hell irritated and it got featured in my new year’s resolution too (that I have to repel cold this year)

Then came January, I was happy and all nice, when on the 2^nd day of the New Year, I realised I am catching cold again. My symptoms were- mild headache, runny nose, irritated mood and sneezing. I got furious as to why this happened because I literally didn’t deserve it this time, so I decided to do something about it from that very moment. It became more like a 3 day ritual beginning from that morning. My routine shall be as follows:-

1) Cold special lemonade:-

the very first thing I did that morning was to make myself a lemonade in warm water to have first thing in the morning right after 2 glasses of simple warm drinking water.

Ingredients-

Lemon-1,

Black pepper-A pinch

Black salt-A pinch

Brown sugar (shakkar)-As per taste

That’s it. Mix them all up, and fill up your system with this.

2) Golden Milk (Haldi waala dhoodh):-

Then after having my breakfast and working a little bit, I just took a nap, woke up and the second thing that I did was to make this golden milk. This is the best and the most effective remedy for basically anything, for the qualities of turmeric, that is used in every Indian household, in almost every meal, are now very well known throughout the world.

Ingredients-

Milk- A glass

Cardamom- 2

Ginger- Cut and peel a slice of it (grate it in the warm milk)

Turmeric- I prefer raw turmeric more than the powdered one for this

Black salt- A pinch

Black Pepper- A pinch

Brown sugar (shakkar)- As per your own taste

Almonds- sliced 2-3 (this is a optional step I love it both ways, you have to take your own call at this)

Fennel seed- 2-3 tablespoons

Here, all you have to do is to take a pan, pour that one glass of water into it, let it warm up, and when it is warmed up start by putting all the dry ingredients one by one. Also just like ginger, raw turmeric can also be grated. Then after two boils let it sit on simmer for 4-5 minutes. After which pour it in your favourite cup. Enjoy it sip by sip.

These two things I did actually for three days, but its effect was felt the very first day I had it, and just so that its effect doesn’t fade,keeping in mind how often do I catch cold, I continued it further. However one thing I would say is that don’t have unhealthy things that day or more preferably for the next couple of days. I had lots of fruits like kiwis and oranges throughout the day. I also suggest having healthy soups vegetable or chicken as per liking. Moreover forty-five minutes before sleeping try having one warm glass of water. It really helps with any congestion and you would be able to sleep better throughout the night. However it still needs to be kept in mind that the first night of cold is always tough so if you’re still not able to sleep that good,it's okay, hopefully your second day should be much better than the previous. One more thing is that everybody works and reacts differently for different ingredients, it actually did work for me the very first day I had it, but if doesn’t work for you the first day, don’t give up, continue the same, it is supposed to give you better results than any kind of medicine because of the qualities of the ingredients and the best part is everything is natural, it must be good.

So say a goodbye

Golden Milk and the ingredients

to that irritating cold, kick it away with these natural cures and stay happy. If you have any questions write them down below.

Beauty products Haul-2018

2018-01-04T18:09:00.000+05:30

Hey you guys!!. In this blog, as you can already tell from the title, it is a haul blog, where I will share what all I bought for myself. Also I actually bought these things before 31^st, so I didn’t really buy these things this year. The products that I am going to show here are wide ranging some are of everyday use, while some are for winters and some others that are new. I got most of these products from Nykaa and now let’s get into it.

1) Nykaa Paint Stix- shade cool girl Nude

It will be the first time that I will be trying this lippie, and I really love nude shades so had to pick this one, I am currently testing it out and will shortly do a blog review of this product, till then you can see in the pictures down below for the swatch. Also I bought this from a sale on Nykaa so, the sale price is- 303Rs and the MRP is-340Rs.

2) Lotus Herbals safe sun Intensive sunblock spray

It is an SPF-50. Although it is not the first sunscreen from lotus that I am trying, but this particular one I am trying for the first time for sure. Before this I had finished my favourite- UV Screen Matte gel normal to oily skin SPF 50. This one is my all-time favourite and no matter how many other sunscreens I try I keep coming back to this one, but this time I again decided to try a cream based one because in winters I’m oily but I still can survive this one. I am trying it out only, will do a blog post when I am sure about it.

This one also I got from the sale, so the sale price is-312Rs and MRP is 365Rs.

3) Biotique Morning Nectar Moisturizer

This product is also my first try and I don’t think I will be able to use it in summers as I have a combination skin and any kind of moisturizer which does not say for oily skin, generally makes my whole face shine like a diamond basically.. So I avoid using them but as far as I’ve used this one, I feel it is on a lighter side from those kind of creams, so I am not absolutely sure as well. Let the summers arrive, I will update on it. And as you guessed, it has also been picked up from a sale, price-119Rs and MRP- 149Rs.

4) Biotique Bio-Papaya Visibly Ageless Scrub

I was using a banana scrub before this from khadi, and that was really good but I got a little bored of it so I decided to buy this one. So far I have only used it twice, and must say it does clean really well, skin feels really good after using it. Basically it has a job and knows how to do it. Sale price-78Rs MRP-110Rs.

5) Boroline Antiseptic Ayurvedic cream

This one is a like a no brainer for winters and summers as well, but I majorly use it in winters. It is hands-down one of the best creams I have used thus far. I do not use it on my face but hands, feet etc, the areas that can get really dry in winters. This works the best. However lets break the Nykaa chain here, I bought it from my local store, and so no sale or discount but hey! It’s cheap and worth. MRP-34Rs.

6) Rimmel London-Lasting finish by kate, in the shade-28

This was given to me by one of my cousins and not bought by me. I don’t really know the actual price of it and since I am trying it for the first time, I can’t say much about it but the colour and swatch of it I have inserted below.

7) L'oreal paris mat magique all in one transforming compact

Well this one is my second purchase after finishing the first one, so you can understand how much I love it. This is my Holy grail product,and I mostly use it on a regular basis, especially in summers. My shade is-Honey nude and this one i did not buy on sale. Its MRP is-430Rs.

8) Maybelline lasting drama by eyestudio

It is a waterproof gel pencil in the shade lustrous sapphire. bought it for the first time and ohh my god, I got only good things to say about this baby. I just love the formula, the colour, the pigment, longeviti, everything. I am now thinking of buying all its shades. This was also not from sale and so the MRP is- 499

Done!!.. that’s about it you all. I know it is not a huge haul but since these are the products that I use and will be using in the near future, I thought I might share them with y’all as well. Hope you like my post.

Thanks a ton if you’ve read this far. Loads of love and have a nice day.

Trip to Solan-Himachal Pradesh India

2018-01-01T20:30:00.000+05:30

Here’s another kind of a travelogue of another beautiful place, that is the most closest to my heart and that is Himachal Pradesh, my hometown. To brief you all a little about it, for me since childhood, Himachal has meant a place of my very dear cousins, my extended family that lives there. Every time that I’ve been there, it has only been to meet them and all the relatives, and spend some quality time with the fam. However this time around it was different since I went to a new place, in Himachal only but not the place where I could find my relatives, since I wanted to see the place this time. So, I with my family on New Year’s decided to go to another place in the Solan district called Dharampur. We stayed at Dharampur and from there covered a few much hyped touristy places namely- Shimla, Kufri and chail. Let’s begin.

First day we landed at the destination, where we were to stay i.e Dharampur, oh and just so you know, we were not staying in a hotel we have our own home there, just that I went there for the first time. So since we arrived in the evening, we were already exhausted from the long drive and so we decided to just be at home. Having said that, it is not that we just stayed at home, we did go on a long walk and as the sun was setting, we managed to click some of its really good pictures as we were strolling. One thing though I must confess, before this trip I’ve never really gone out of my way to see a sunset or a sunrise I don’t know why I always used to be so preoccupied with hell lot of things in my brain, that I never really enjoyed my trips that much. It was only the year 2017 that made me realise how much I have missed out by not enjoying little things. I now truly believe that it’s the little things that matter and I whole heartedly believe in that. Now coming back to the walk, we(my sister and I) went really long and as the sun had completely set, we were hurrying back to our home and I say hurrying because we were getting calls from our family members who were scolding us for going out too far in the dark not because of the fear of humans but because of snow leopards that roam around freely and could eat us up :p well this would be quite familiar instance to all the Paharis out there and I know what they would say having read this- “I feel you”. Hahahaha.. I mean yeahh.. oh and the meanwhile on our way home, my mom met us halfway, who was not letting us come alone any longer. While returning, we met a local person who was very old and returning home from work. While me and my sister were busy trying to upload our pictures on social media, they got into talking, they had talked about a lot of local things, but what caught my attention was when he started talking about the snow leopard that he saw and had just escaped. Which was right in the morning before the sunrise, again as it was dark it had come out, but was returning back to the jungle. One thing I liked about him was that he had a big gun at the time when the snow leopard was passing by and he didn’t harm it in any way. He mentioned that they don’t harm animals like that because they believe that all animals are important for the ecological balance. That’s how our first day ended.

Moving on to the second day, it was the best as we visited first chail, about it, it was beautiful, peaceful and nice I mean I would have liked to have a little more time to go beyond that also but with the constraint of time, we saw world’s highest cricket playground, managed to click a few pictures and went to Kufri from there. Kufri ahh, if only I could describe in words how beautiful it was. The main reason that I planned the trip around this time was because only a week back there was snowfall and I wanted to see that, but when we go did, the snow had already melted, so couldn’t experience the snow, but the views that Kufri had to offer were beautiful beyond imagination. Kufri also offers various sports and all but I was only focused on the mesmerising views. And the yummy Maggie that we had there in the freezing wind was another experience altogether. Finally, we went to Shimla, and by the time we reached there the sun was already only half visible from the mountains, and so we did not have much time left, but we still managed to cover the mall road, the ridge and the library, also the church. Had tomato and vegetable soups and the yummiest fruit chart as well, saw all that the place had to offer, clicked some memories and enjoyed a lot. I mean I loved Shimla so much so that I am planning to do only a Shimla tour for a whole day or two. I feel like Shimla is a place that has to offer much much more than this and since you may not know, but I am also a bibliophile and I really want to spend some time in the library. Finally at 11, we reached back home and dozed off..

The next day, we didn’t go anywhere else, I enjoyed the sun there as it was very cold and already we don’t get much vitamin-D in the cities, so It was much needed as well. Then in the evening I again went for a walk but a short one this time and again clicked the sunset, kid you not the place offers a new sunset every day. The evening went by with some family barbeque and some chit-chatters.

The next day, right in the morning, I went for a walk, a very long one because who doesn’t want to take in all the fresh air and let the rays of the rising son upon oneself. This morning walk was all about myself and with myself. Didn’t get it?? I meant without headphones or songs, I know it’s a poor joke, but this walk wasn’t. I reconnected with myself, as I was running, I could hear the musings of the mountains, the trees, the wind, the best kind of music that I have ever heard. I highly recommend to try this. This was the best thing I had ever done in a long time. Then I was later joined by my sister and clicked some pictures because then that was mandatory. In The evening I again took a long walk but took the road less taken this time. I mean, the mountains less taken.. “mera sense of humour bhot acha hai dhere dhere pata chalega aapko” lol. So since I have done trekking when I went in Kashmir, which was the first time, I knew it could be tough with the trees and everything else in between but guess what I don’t care and I did reached my home only through the mountain, my parents were there, but no one else except my mom came with me (she’s better than me in this, I mean all her childhood in the mountains se had to). I loved it, although my legs were hurting after it all but it was all worth it.

EVENING WALK

Sunsets

The next day, we had to leave, so I woke up late, spent my morning in the balcony, packed up everything and didn’t do much. This is how my trip ended and I really want go back again, which I will for sure. I am surely a nemophilist is what I have realised through this trip. And I love travelling.

Malaysia explored

2017-12-31T20:20:00.000+05:30

Well Hello again! I know, I’ve been MIA for a while, but that’s because I didn’t have that much idea about how this blog thing works, and also I was doing various things because of which also, I was kind of occupied and completely ignored my blog. But… I am back now, and hopefully I plan to be better at it this time. Okay!! So a brief which was much required is over now, and so let’s start.

I went to Malaysia in August this year i.e 2017. This was a family trip but the colleagues from my parent’s office were also there. Basically it was an office retreat.

So to begin with… the first place after the take-off from Delhi, we landed in Kuala Lumpur, but we reached at almost mid-night and it was just for the night that we had to spend there that was, the very next morning, we left for Langkawi from there, basically the place from where the trip began.

Langkawi, the brown eagle, if you translate it is, is a mesmerising island. Not just it is beautiful to look at, but it is also the people of a place along with the food that make a place special if they are good, and kid you not, nothing at all was disappointing about the place. The name of the hotel that we stayed at is- Bella Vista Waterfront Hotel, their services although were a little chaotic when we reached there, but the hotel was really amazing to stay at. The best part being its beautiful architecture. Looks just like a British castle because of its grandiosity, and the view that I had from my room was pretty too. Also, we were lucky to get a duplex and I mean it was huge and so royal, I absolutely adorned it. Moreover their breakfasts were my favourite too, from fresh cut seasonal fruits to freshly made omelettes and waffles along with various kinds of flavoured breads. I must say, I’ve had the heartiest breakfasts.

Moving ahead to the places that I covered in Langkawi are as follows:-

First we went to the underwater world, and as the name suggests it was really a beautiful world of the creatures that live underwater, I loved everything about it, but have to say the cutest were baby penguins, running from one corner to the other and although they were behind the glass, when I went near them, some of them came towards the side I was standing to play, all the time I was only wishing to touch them, omg why are they so adorable. I never wanted to leave that place. Then there were other very exotic creatures as well, lots and lots of creatures that I had never seen so close. The other would be octopus, OMG I know it might sound strange considering the fact that so many people despise it, I loved it. The way it was moving, hands down the most majestic underwater creature award (this is my very own award) would go to the octopus. How are they so cool!!!...

Second, we went to the sky bridge and to that we took a cable car. That day it had rained heavily and so up there it was foggy and we could not get much of a view, but it was something, very calming, relaxing and beautiful. Plus I was literally in the sky, what else do you need in life.

Third stop was eagle square, which mainly was the symbol of Langkawi, their bird that has been hugely built and basically you can click a picture of yourself with it. It was nice as well.

Fourth stop, Mangrove tour, where they took us to see the bat cave, which was dark and had bats over the top of the cave. Then there were mangrove trees, and they told us how very important they are for our environment, I mean, we already know that trees are important and that’s right, but those mangrove trees kind of also have a historical significance. So, basically there was a very bad tsunami that had hit the place, that had destroyed almost everything around the place, but wherever there were mangrove trees, everything was absolutely fine, those trees had prevented most of the population from a huge loss of life. And so now, no one can cut mangrove trees there anymore, I guess they have made it a law or something, not sure about that, but for sure mangrove trees are now more sacred there.

Fifth stop, and also my favourite one, Island Hopping. There’s nothing I can complaint about at all, I was in the sea roaming from One Island to another, almost the whole day. It was awesome, and the best part was I had just learnt to swim last year and I got the opportunity to swim in an actually deep water without having anyone to save me if I drown (I mean there were people who could possible save me, but for the most part, I was on my own and that was awesome to another level). It was in the pregnant maiden island.

Finally we went to a beach, I mean being In Langkawi if it wasn’t already anticipatory. That was a kind of relaxation time for a couple of hours as we had spent only roaming consistently for a few days.

Okay finally was meant to be final in Langkawi, the final actually is Kuala Lumpur. We again boarded from Langkawi to KL and did some touristy things there like visiting monuments of historical significance, like the king’s palace, national monument etc. and the not historical significance ones are cocoa boutique, which was yum yum yumyyy!!.. And central market which was all about shopping shopping!!.

All in all it was a supercool trip, enjoyed hell lot, had some traditional Malaysian cuisines also in KL, did some more shopping.

Seeing altogether a different place is the best feeling. I feel like travelling opens up your mind somehow. I loved it, and I love travelling.

Ads pro matte gloss Only Rs.-120 lippie

2017-09-29T21:43:00.000+05:30

https://www.cuffsnlashes.com/OnlineMakeupStore/ads-pro-matte-gloss/4760846295

MRP- Rs.-120/-

First and foremost, above is the link of the website from where I bought my lippie, if you want you can check it out as well and then come and read the review or vice versa💋💋.

To begin with, the first thing that comes to my mind is the god damn priceee!!!!..

I mean at the time when everything is touching the sky in terms of price, this one is the best thing that could happen at this point.

So before beginning the actual review, below here are a few pictures of the exact product that I have got.

Okay!!.. So as you can see, the shade that I've got is skin kiss 419, and I love this shade. It is like the perfect nude for my skin tone and from fair to medium skin it will go perfectly fine.

Its qualities:-

It is true to its name, i.e it says matt and hell yeahhh it is matt. It is not even little bit shiny but yeahh after applying this takes around 30 seconds to settle so in that period, it can look shiny but don't ya worry its not gonna stay like that for long.

Secondly, it is a long wear lippie.. it stayed on me for around 6 hours and by the end of the sixth hour, what I noticed was that it was a little light from the actual colour that it had in the morning. It surely had faded a bit, but did not smudge or like cracked just faded all over, i mean that is kinda good at the price point at which it comes.

Coming to the pigmented part, trust me, you won't be disappointed at all. This baby is very pigmented and I've used many like hyped about brands that cost much more than this but are not as pigmented so this is a smart buy.

Okay yeah one more thing, if you've seen the picture above, this product is a liquid lipstick kinda thingy. It is not in a bullet form and so when you apply, it glides easily and is creamy as well.

Not qualities-

I mean at the price at which it comes and with the kind of qualities it has, i really do ignore what I am going to write right now, but i think you reading this should know all the sides of this cube(not technically but yeahh😂😌).

Firstly, it does take a little bit of time to dry completely matt around 30-40 seconds and till that time it feels sticky on the lips, which can be little bit annoying at times and especially when you're getting late.

Secondly it fades more when you eat. No, it does not transfer but it fades from the lips but the thing is I have a habit of eating without like caring about anything, so if you eat carefully, don't worry then, it won't budge.

Finally, since it is matt, it is also drying on the lips it you apply it directly. So, make sure before you apply this, apply a lip balm underneath.

Overall, it is a great product and I have been using it got a month as well so, if I happen to finish it, I am definitely purchasing it again.

Below are some pictures of me wearing it-

And then I also thought of some snapchat🙈🙈

Okay below will be the link again if by chance you happened to read the whole post and then you wanna go and buy it.

So, this ends my blog here until the next one

Byeeeeeee.......💖💕

Maybelline New York Fashion Brow Cream Pencil - Grey REVIEW

2017-09-16T20:10:00.001+05:30

Ohhh lord!!.. such a big title.. I am tired already😜😝.
Another thing before starting, this product is on 15% off on Nykaa as on date 16/09/2017, so if you wanna check out, I've given the link below.👇👇
http://www.nykaa.com/maybelline-new-york-fashion-brow-cream-pencil.html?ptype=product&id=71325&skuId=71327
One more thing, I won't be paid if you click this link so don't worry.
MRP =Rs.175
Discount price=Rs. 149

Claims by the company:-

To begin with the review, let's first talk about what the company claims.

Creamy formulation brow pencil.

Super blend-able eye brow pencil.

12 hr wear.

Exclusive heat-proof.

Long-wearing formula.

Available in 2 shades: grey for dark hair and brown for light hair.

This is an overview of its major claims.

What I think about it:-

This is definitely one of the most affordable and quality product brought out by Maybelline, and am really thankful for that because it fits perfectly for someone like me who is a college student and on a budget.

So, to begin with the first claim, I'd say yes, it is creamy but not very creamy. It is the right amount of creamy needed for an eyebrow product.

Secondly, yes it is quite blend-able and very easy to use for a beginner.

Thirdly, it is quite a long wear. It stays for 7-8 hours easily, after which you might have to touch up, but considering the price, it is really good. Also after 7-8 hours you'd anyway touch up if you are going out.

Fourthly, coming to heat proof, it is. I am mostly travelling in my scooty, and so I do wear helmet but it is such a good formula that it stays put when I take off my helmet. I mean I wear it and I really don't worry about my eyebrows anymore.

Finally coming to the packaging, I also quite like it. It is very sturdy and compact and easy to travel with as well. Does not take much space and is durable.

Overall I quite like this product. Ohh and it also comes in a brown shade which is to be for lighter eyebrows. I have uploaded a picture of the swatch of the grey one if you'd want to check it out.

I've also provided a link in the end as well.

So, this ends my review. Hope it was helpful. Until the next post

Byeeeeeeeeee💖💕

Faces Magneteyes kajal Review

2017-09-12T21:30:00.000+05:30

http://www.nykaa.com/faces-magneteyes-kajal-lasts-all-day-black.html?ptype=product&id=19750?&root=search&searchterm=faces%20kajal&type=product
So in my last post (i.e my Nykaa essentials haul ), I shared with you all the essentials that I bought🙈🙈 and after that, I have been trying those products some of which were new to me and so here's my review of one of that, which you now know by the title of it so i would just get started. This product is for Rs-175(you can get it on discount most of the times at nykaa).

First of all, lets just talk about the claims that the company makes,shall we!.👀😅.
The packaging in the front says that it lasts all day, that it is extreme black kohl and is enriched with vitamin E. Then it also claims to be water proof, smudge proof and dermatologically tested. This is written in the front, and at back it says the same things with 2 illustrations on how to use it in two different ways meaning that as a kohl and as an eyeliner😎. You can see both the pictures below(front and back)💃.

Okay!!... So after having given their claims I would now like to share what I feel about it.

First of all talking about its first claim that it lasts all day, I'd say it does last pretty long as a kajal, for about 7-8 hours on me after which it does not smudge or something but would just fade that too only a little (keeping in mind that I have oily lids and most kajals would make me either look like a panda, or would just disappear from my eyes like I didn't apply anything at all🙅)

Secondly, talking about the colour. IT IS VERY BLACK. It is not blackest black but quite black in this price range. You guys too can have a look at it below-

Above is just one soft-handed swipe and below is 3-4 swipes with again quite light hands.

Then coming to waterproof and smudge proof, yes it is. If you just pour water, it wont do anything but if you apply pressure with your fingers it will start to come off. Also it doesn't smudge when it dries but if you want to, you can smudge it very easily when you've just applied it.

Finally coming to the part where it says that you can apply it both as a kohl and a eyeliner, I'd say it is better to use it as kohl more than an eyeliner if you're like me, in the sense that you keep touching your eyelids again and again by mistake, that's because it does not dry completely somehow on my eyelids and comes off on my hands as I touch it. However, I'd also like to believe that maybe that happens because of my oily lids but it does.

So, if you are not like me in that case, then I'd say it will work for you for sure, because it does for my friends.

Ohh..Heyy!!.. I did use it, both as my eyeliner and kajal and I can show you guys how it looks.

First I used it as an eyeliner and the pictures are below-

Then I used it as kajal as well and the pictures are below-

Finally, I'd highly recommend this product. It is worth your money if you are on a budget like me.

I really hope my review was helpful and really thank you if you made it till the end.

I have also provided the link at the top as well as in the bottom in case you'd want to check it out.

My Nykaa only essentials haul🙈

2017-09-06T21:50:00.003+05:30

So recently I placed an order at Nykaa just for the essentials that I use every single day, and since I am blogging now, I thought I might as well share it with you guys. This haul would be a realistic haul, for I am also on a budget as I am a student and get only a little pocket money(thought I should mention it😜).

I mainly went to shop for a kajal pencil and after a lot of contemplation and research I went ahead and decided for the one from Faces- called- the magneteyes kajal for Rs-175/-. Here's my first purchase😎-

Then my second purchase is something that I use everyday and was running out it.. and nope it is neither a kajal nor a lipbalm but an eyebrow pencil. This product comes in my budget and is my second purchase because it is good (from the products that I can afford👀). It is the Maybelline New York Fashion Brow Cream pencil in GREY for Rs-150/-. Here, you guys also have a look 😘-

Then my third and last purchase is what is a craze all over the Indian YouTube scenario and by now most of you must have guessed it, but even if you haven't, that's also absolutely okay because, we're only Humans Duh!!..😜😛. The product is THE FACE SHOP -The solution pore care face mask for Rs-150/-. And I am only excited to try this. Also I bought just one of them because I first wanted to try it and then maybe I'l buy more if they suit me. The picture is below-

Okay!!.. so my haul should be over but it is not because(with some excitement in my voice😄) Nykaa was kind enough to include free samples of 2 products. The first is- Livon Hair Serum sachet-

Finally the second and the last sample that they sent me is Lakme Absolute Perfect Radiance. Have a look below-

Okaayyyy!!!!......... So it is over you guyss😅. Thanks a ton if you stopped till the end.
Byeeeeeeeeeee until the next post💕

Rimmel London lipstick review for undressed

2017-09-01T23:19:00.001+05:30

http://www.nykaa.com/rimmel-lasting-finish-lipstick.html?skuId=8650

So it has been 2 weeks or more since i have been using this lipstick from Rimmel London in the shade undressed. It retails for 275rs but i got it from Nykaa at a 10% discount if I remember correctly.
I belong to a fair skintone family and still i would say that the shade is quite light for me as well.
I personally am a sucker for nude lipsticks and so went ahead for this one. However i can only use this shade on top of a little darker shade and the effect of that is that it makes that darker shade also nude, that's how light it is. I would definitely not recommend this for dark skin tones for this will wash you out.

As far as the stay power is concerned, it stays on my lips for maximum 3 hours, if i don't eat anything that is, and if i eat, i will have to reapply it as soon as i finish eating. But for the price it is offered at, I believe it is okay.
Packaging is quite sturdy and not flimsy at all so that is good.
Overall my personal opinion is only that go for it only if you are very fair or you like a washed out face look, which also is absolutely fine. It depends on how you want to carry it. Finally, I do like the shade and am currently using it every single day.

I have uploaded some pictures below for you guys to see how it actually looks.

Links to check the lipstick out have been provided below and at the top, in case you are interested.
