Mumbai, December 03, 2014: Disney has teamed up with iconic Indian fashion brand, Satya Paul to launch a stylish retro-modern collection titled ‘Disney Mono Pop by Satya Paul’. The collection was launched at a soirée hosted at the Satya Paul store in the Palladium Mall, Mumbai, with Bollywood actress Esha Gupta looking gorgeous in a stunning ‘Minnie Mono Pop saree’ from the collection. The event was attended by Mumbai’s stylish glitterati, from the likes of Mandira Bedi, Sidharth Roy Kapur, Masaba Gupta, Shaheen Abbas, Vidya Malwade, Dipti Bhatnagar and many others.

Inspired by the unique interpretations of iconic Disney characters, the Satya Paul design studio has created a nostalgic collection that reflects and reminisces the evolution of Mickey and Minnie over the years. The idea was to render the characters in monochrome to being washed in Sepia, finding hints of color in their latest avatar, with pop hues and strong graphics. This collaboration pays homage to these iconic characters by fusing them with one of India’s classic sartorial drapes- the Saree.

The collection takes you on a retrospective journey through Disney’s famous artworks, earlier interpretations, rendering techniques and fantastical vision and comprises of tunics, scarves, stoles, ties and accessories in addition to the sarees. Pricing has been positioned to make the collection accessible to a larger audience, with printed sarees starting at INR 11995 along with ready-to-wear and accessories priced at INR 2995 onwards. This collection will launch at retail in December 2014 onwards through 10 flagship Satya Paul stores across five cities. It will also be e-tailed through an exclusive tie-up with Jabong.com, one of the leading online fashion brands in the country.

“Disney is a multi-generation brand with characters that continue to inspire fashion designers globally. We are delighted to collaborate with Satya Paul to lend their creative expertise in designing this inspiring range for fashion conscious fans. Our halo collaborations have always created unique offerings which keeps us at the helm of the creative fashion business in India and worldwide”, said Abhishek Maheshwari, VP and Head, Consumer Products, Disney India.

"For three decades now, the Satya Paul design studio has been synonymous with distinct print innovation and ground breaking design. Therefore, our collaboration with Disney is an exciting platform to extend the brand's core vision and we are looking forward to launching this Global Indian line inspired by two of Disney's iconic characters", said Sanjay Kapoor, managing director at Genesis Colors, the holding company for Satya Paul.

Inspiring talented designers the world over, cultural icons Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, continue to be in high demand with leading international luxury brands such as Dolce & Gabbana, Givenchy, Marc Jacobs and Elie Saab. This year these characters will be recreated in Satya Paul's signature print fabrications on women’s apparel & accessories along with selected men’s accessories.

Started at a time when there was little or no awareness about fashion or the idea of designer brands in India, Satya Paul introduced the idea of choreographed collections and modern ethnic wear. The brand’s take on print innovations did not only change the way the consumer previously looked at Sarees, but also developed a specific niche for concept-based designs. Women no longer restrict themselves to hereditary Banarasis and Chanderis; and Satya Paul has been instrumental in this bringing about this change with the new-age Saree, which is easy to wear and chic.

you all must be aware that Durga Puja is just knocking at the door, and being a bong I am elated and happy like penguins and just cannot wait to rush to my hometown to celebrate the puja.

And ofcourse, I would be needing all sorts of new stylish clothes, shoes , makeup and accessories and phew the list does not get over ever... And on top of that I do not have time to shop at all..too swamped with work.

Me, known for my online shopping addiction among my friends and colleagues, resorted to my favorite online destination Jabong.com. For me it is a one stop fashion and style solution. It does not let me down ever whenever I am in the look out for good stylish stuffs.

You can just log on to www.jabong.com and bang! You can surf through all branded, non branded, premium, luxury, discounted stuffs across all categories -
- Men
- Women
- Kids
- Sports
- Designers and what not.....

Today my review is based on my shopping experience with the JABONG.

I am not a first time shopper from Jabong. I always shop from jabong and they have never failed to surprise me with their before time and one day delivery and genuine products neatly and carefully packed.

This time I have bought few dresses and suits for Durga Puja form the online store (I will do a Outfit post on that soon). Suddenly I realized I have missed out on few makeup products which I need badly. Soon I resorted to the site and quickly bought my stuffs before I board my flight to Kolkata this week.

I bought Maybelline Hypercurl Mascara (washable) ( Buy HERE) as I finished my older product and that too it was waterproof, Street Wear Color Rich Ultra Moist Lipstick in Runway Russet (Buy HERE)and a beautiful Sangria Turquoise & Golden Stud (Buy HERE)

I had ordered the items on Saturday night 1 AM and trust me guys on sunday noon the delivery boy calls up and said "Mam apka order aa gaya hai..Delivery ke liye aa raha hoon". Man!! I was amazed with the super speed of the delivery. Kudos Team Jabong.

They have multiple payment option for the orders like Cash-On-Delivery, Net Banking, Debit/Credit Card. Too convenient for people like me who has very little time in a day.

The Package came in good condition wrapped in Jabong branded polythene, when opened a nice beautiful classy Jabong branded black box was there. I opened the box and found my order to be in great condition, sealed and in complete new condition. And on top of that there was a discount coupon of Rs 200 for my next purchase. Yayieeee!!

I am really liking what I have bought and is kicked about wearing these during the Puja season. By the way have you seen the new campaign of Jabong - Be You? I really liked it man! Uff the advertising bug in me has again knocked in :P

Time to say buh bye..Will be back with another lovely post for you all !

Have you bought anything from Jabong.com? Let me know your experience

* this review is based on my experience with jabong.com and is not a sponsored post and my opinion here is absolutely honest and fair

I am Back : End Of Hibernation!!

Sunsilk Natural Recharge with Ginseng Root & Oil Shampoo and Conditioner : Review

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 03 Apr 2014 17:01:00 +0000

Hi Everyone,

I am sure that all must be geared up for the weekend. So where's the party this time? :D

Today I have a new launch from Sunsilk for review... The Sunsilk Natural Recharge Shampoo and Conditioner

Price

The shampoo is priced at INR 132 and conditioner is INR 65 (as far as I could remember)

What the brand says

It contains ginseng root and oil. It nourishes hair from root to tip for thicker , fuller and 5 x stronger hair. It is paraben free shampoo. It gives naturally bouncy hair. Nourishes & strengthens hair from root to tips. Revitalizes & enhances volume for hair full of life.

My experience

I will start off with the most impressive thing - Paraben Free. I had always shy-ed away from Sunsilk shampoos due to this factor, but not any more. I am totally impressed with the formulation.

It is one of a kind shampoo and conditioner that Sunsilk has launched which stands tall to what it claims at such an affordable price.

The shampoo lathers very well and very fast. A little amount gives so much froth which makes me wonder that it has SLES. I do not have problem with that. Without that not shampoo is complete. The shampoo cleans my hair and scalp and makes my hair come alive post drying.

The conditioner is effective too and makes the hair silky soft.

Both these products when applied together gives my hair volume and shine. It somehow takes away the dullness of my hair and makes it super soft. Honestly I love touching my hair when I use this product combo.

I even like the green packaging. It has a flip open cap and is very handy. Strong and sturdy all I will say.

Thanks Sunsilk! You have done a great job this time.

Puro Body and Soul Lip Balm in Orange Fanta : Review

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Wed, 02 Apr 2014 18:29:00 +0000

Hi Everyone,

I am happy today. I got my MAC lippie today that I won in a giveaway on the blog PoutPretty. Thanks Dolon! <3

And I also got my lovely blue maxi dress today. I must say it is gorgeous! Very soon I am going to do an outfit post.

Anyway today I am going to review a lip balm from an Indian brand Puro Body and Soul in Orange Fanta flavor.

It is a brand, that is purely vegetarian and is cruelty free. You can shop the products from www.vegetarianshop.in

The price of the balm is INR 95

The lip balm comes in a generic lip balm tub packaging with screw cap.The color of the balm is bright orange and it gives out a fruity orange smell. Have you ever smelt orange ice cream that is only made up of ice and covered with orange syrup? It is of the same fragrance. The smell ofcourse vanishes when you start applying.

The balm on the whole has a gel like texture and is very heavy on lips. So I use it in the night and not wear it to work or outside.

The name orange fanta is so apt. It is indeed a fanta product :P

When I get up in the morning I get really smooth and pink lips. The balm works miraculously! I just love it.

The best part is , it is completely herbal and is not animal tested.

I quite like it!

Clean & Clear Foaming Facial Wash: Review ; Price

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 01 Apr 2014 18:19:00 +0000

Guest Post By Anwesha Dey:

Hi Everybody

Whenever we come across the brand Johnon & Johnson either in cosmetic stores or in television commercials we promptly say the word “Awww” and wish for a baby soft clear skin. Our family swears by J7J products and my family religiously use J&J’s talcum power, cream and even their soap. I never had the problem of pimples but due to excessive oily skin no face wash has come to my rescue. So finally, when I visited our local drugstore two months back, I found this face wash Clean & Clear Foaming Face Wash and quickly grabbed it but took the smaller bottle with the thought to first give it a try.

The product claims

CLEAN & CLEAR^® ESSENTIALS Foaming Facial Cleanser is for everyday use and cleans skin and washes away problem-causing dirt, oil, and make-up to help skin stay clean and healthy. The rich lather is oil-free and gently removes dirt and oil without over-drying and leaves skin clean and refreshed.

Also, its mentioned the product is for non-sensitive skin type.

Price

INR 49 for 50 ML

Packacking

It comes in a simple looking stout and sturdy ‘D’- shaped transparent orange coloured plastic bottle with a screw cap and a flip cover. It is travel friendly as the flip top cover closes off tightly and there’s no fear of spill over.

Ingredients

Inactive: Water, Triethanolamine, Myristic Acid, C9-15 Alkyl Phosphate, Lauric Acid, Glycerin, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance, Methylparaben, BHT, Propylparaben, Ethylparaben, Red 4, Yellow 10

How Do I Use It:

Squeeze a small amount, little more than a pee-size on wet palm or you can wet your face and apply it directly on the face. Gently massage it all over face. Rinse off thoroughly. It cleans off eye light up eye makeup too. But I would recommend you to first remove your eye make-up and use the product.

My Experinece with Clean and Clear Foaming Face Wash

I love the mild fragrance and the face wash is transparent so no fear of getting stains in your clothes if you drop it on your attire accidentally. It gives an instant glow in my face and though the product claims it is for non-sensitive skin, my face id not break down even once. It brightens my face and makes me feel so fresh. I have been using it religiously for the past two months and it did not break out even once. I love this face wash. I follow it up with a toner and a sunscreen during the day and a a moisturizer during night.

Pros

· Removes dirt and oil effectively from the skin

Beauties with oily skin would love it
Easily Available
Contains glycerin
Cheap
Travel Friendly
A Small amount will do your work effectively
Does not break out
Mild fragrance
Brightens skin

Cons

Ingredients list is absent on the product
Contains a lot chemical ingredients so try not to use more than twice a day

Final take

I will surely recommend the product to ladies and even the handsome men who are blessed with excessive oily skin. But never forget to use a toner nd a moisturizer after you use the product. I will surely but it again, at least for the coming two three months where we are going to get boiled :D

Maybelline Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner - 36 Hr formula : Review, Price, Swatch

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sun, 30 Mar 2014 14:31:00 +0000

Hi Everyone!

Does it happen to everybody that you think you will do all sorts of pending work during weekends and then in the weekends you just feel you could relax through out and not do any work? :(

I had so many reviews to put up but somehow work takes a toll on me during weekdays and I sleep through out weekend :P

Anyway today our star product for review is The Maybelline Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner - 36 Hour formula.

I was supposed to get this gel eyeliner way before when it had a 24 hr formulation but then I got to know that soon the new formulation was supposed to hit the market, so I refrained back and decided to wait for sometime. Then I got this one and this one is my first gel eyeliner.

Price

It is priced at INR 450. You can buy it HERE

My Experience

It is my first gel eyeliner and at first it was a little uncomfortable for me to line my eyes but I got used to it now. It comes with a liner brush which seems a good one and till now no bristles fell off after repeated washes.

The texture of the gel is smooth and it glides very easily on the lids. It is a genuine blackity black color and stays on like forever. Very rightly pitched at transfer-proof , smudge-proof and water-proof.

It does not go off even after putting it under running water. :D

I just hope it does not dries up soon. One can easily line her eyes with it and I am sure it will be apt for doing a great winged eyeliner. :D

The pigmentation is great as you can see in my EOTD below. It does not even bother my eyes and is safe to use.

I will just crib about one thing...I mean the price placed against the quantity I get in that small tub is just not perfect. :(

L’oreal Paris True Match Mineral Powder Foundation: Review, Price

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Wed, 26 Mar 2014 17:10:00 +0000

GUEST POST BY ANWESHA DEY

Heloo Gals.

I’m back and toady I am going to write about another very interesting product which many people are aware of.

Today’s star is L’oreal Paris True match mineral powder foundation.

Discovering the product was a funny event. Back in 2011, on one gloomy day, I finally gave in to believe that there’s nothing on this earth which can control the piggy sweat on my face. With a heavy heart I was striding past cosmetic stalls inside a mall and its then when this magician caught my eyes. I quickly asked for a demo from one of the “so-called” beauty assistants. The moment I opened my eyes, I felt like those picture perfect models or actress. It has become my bestie for two years now.

About the product:

My shade is D5.W5 Golden Sand, perfectly suited for dusky beauties like me :P. Its bang on for wheatish skin tones too. The product is for all skin types, even sensitive!

It claims to contain 95% minerals with no perfumes and no preservatives. It is oil-free and non-comedogenic (which means it doesn’t cause blackheads to appear by blocking the pores of the skin). The icing on the cake is the presence of SPF 15.

Packaging:

The foundation comes in a very smart and plump plastic jar though small in size. It has three parts to its packaging. First, the bottom container carrying the powder make up which have small holes on top to let the power step out. Second, a screw-on lid with an attached applicator brush. Third, (and it’s the last one guys:P) the transparent on-top lid to cover the brush.

Brush:

It’s a fat brush with densely packed bristles. It has a soft finishing and actually helps you to apply on the face evenly. It is not the best make-up brush one can buy, but I can assure you that it’s a boon for people who keep on their toes all the time or are frequent travelers.

One should be careful enough while putting the top lid on which when wrongly put can hurt the soft hairs of the brush. Even if you are in hurry , just hold all the bristles with the grip of your palm and then put the lid with the other hand.

My Experience-

I always apply it over my medicated sunscreen. After about 5 minutes of application of the sunscreen, once it gets absorbed, I put the foundation on. It quickly gives a shine on my face and gradually once it gets settles evenly, it gives a matte look without an over done impression. It camouflages all my uneven patches and even under eye dark circles. As I dislike the painted make-up look, one quick swipe all over, is enough for the daily use. On occasions where you want to look like a queen, just swipe it twice and use some concealer underneath it. Use the brush well for the finest blend or else your face will turn out to be blotchy and will give a cakey look.

A gentle reminder for all of you, its not the normal loose powder, it’s quite thick and you need to use it carefully so that you do not paint you dress with it because could be very tough to remove it from the dress and will leave patches on them.

It works well even if I spend hours travelling out in the sun. It doesn’t sweep off easily while constantly battling with my sweat in summers. It has controlled my profuse sweat and even redness on my face due to heat and pollution. Its travel friendly but try to place it straight inside your bag, or else due to movements, the powder comes out in heavy amount and when you open the screw-on lid, you loose much of it which will give you a mini heart attack because it doesn’t come cheap. Also, never open it when you are standing under a fan, mini heart-attack will follow again :D

Me Post Application :D

Price:

It burns a hole in your pocket as you need to shell out Rs.1290 INR but all I can say is, if used in small quantity it lasts for solid 4-5 months.

Quick praises for my bestie

1. Easily available

2. It gives a nice sheen to your face without making it too painted

3. 95% mineral content

4. No itchy feeling

5. No fragrance

6. Contains SPF 15

7. Staying power for 8-10 hours

8. Sweat proof to a great extent

9. Camouflage blemishes to dark circles with ease

10. Excellent packaging

11. Last but not the least, the free applicator which will bring a wide beam to your face

There’s nothing I can complain of. I can bet no one will complain about the price once they start using it.

NYX Single Eye Shadow in Copper : Review , Swatch, Price, EOTD

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 25 Mar 2014 15:58:00 +0000

Hi Everyone,

Seriously what is wrong with Delhi's weather? Sometimes it is hot and the next day it is raining :(

Anyway I am falling short of my reviews in comparison to the number of products I have :P

Till date I have not reviewed a mono eye shadow in my blog. So today I have brought to you an Eye Shadow from the international brand NYX - the NYX Single Eye Shadow in Copper shade.

NYX is said to have some of the world's best products and that too in a super affordable prices. Till some time ago it was not available in India, But thanks to Sephora and also some online portals, we can now buy NYX in India too *super grin*

Price

It is priced at INR 375, but I got it for INR 300. You can buy it HERE

My Experience

I got this eyeshadow when there was this GOSF sale going on. And I am proud that I have made no mistake by purchasing the product. I am super thankful to myself :D

Actually I was super drawn by the magnificent super rich copper color and I just wanted it anyhow. The stocks were limited and I just had to buy it.

It is a bright copper color which is highly pigmented and has shimmer in it. One can easily wear it to work too and also wear it to parties. The best part is it can be worn in a nude makeup combination too if blended properly and used it right quantity.

The eye shadow stays on my eye lids for a good 9 hours without a primer :D So just imagine with a primer what wonders will it make.

The packaging is also very handy and easily can be put into your bag for long or short travels.

Wish it had a brush to it. But I can live with that! :)

Swatch

EOTD

Hi Fivez

1. Affordable
2. Rich Pigmentation
3. Great staying power
4. Very Handy
5. Can be worn both day & night time

Low Fivez

1. Only one - available only online and Sephora outlets (which is only present in Delhi as of now)

Victoria's Secret Sheer Love Hydrating Body Lotion : Review, Price

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Mon, 24 Mar 2014 17:09:00 +0000

Hi Everyone,

There is a great news for you all. Very Soon I am going to announce a giveaway for all you lovely ladies. Well I thought the bengali new year is approaching soon, and my Facebook likes soon to reach 100. So why not a giveaway right? :D

I am sure you have all heard about the luxury lingerie brand Victoria's Secret and you are all aware of the high profile parties the brand holds every year and the whos who of the Hollywood attend these parties. Anyway lets not talk about parties, the main thing is today I am going to review a body lotion from the brand - Victoria's Secret Sheer Love White Cotton & Pink Lily Hydrating Body lotion.

The Bottle I got was of 60 ML and it was priced at INR 500 but I got it in the Flipkart Slash Sale in INR 299. What a steal! :D

Have any of you had a chance to smell the fragrance of Lily? The lotion has the same fragrance. Which ofcourse does not linger for long post application. The Lotion has a faint pink color to it which I simply adore.

The lotion is quite hydrating and does provide moisturization to my skin. It is not sticky at all. The lotion is water based which makes it light and not oily at all and I think it will fare well during summers also.

However, there is a substantial amount of Paraben in it.

It has a tick tock cap and is very travel friendly.

All in all it is a modest product to use.

Exclusive Screening of Sunsilk Real FM by Anurag Basu at Tivoli Daffodils, Delhi in association with Indibloggers #SunsilkRealFm

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 22 Mar 2014 19:50:00 +0000

Hi everyone,

Today I was watching comedy nights with Kapil, what is wrong with Ekta Kapoor man? what horrendous things she was wearing pink and yellow? did u notice her shoes? and why was she standing with one hand on her waist like a model? (Ofcourse she was looking funny). And Sunny Leone, OMG she is undoubtedly beautiful and her face is very innocent I must admit (Our Baby doll :P)

Anyway coming to the main thing, Sunsilk in association with Indiblogger had arranged a special screening for all bloggers like us of the new film produced by MTV Films - Sunsilk Real FM.

It is an Anurag Basu film directed by Akarsh Khurana. The event was held at Mumbai and Delhi on the same day and at the same time simultaneously and I was invited by the Indibloggers team to attend the event for the special screening yesterday, Friday 21st March.

Actually I was not well yesterday and was not sure of attending it, but then by the time the evening descended I felt I should attend it and went to Tivoli Daffodils in Chattarpur Delhi. Ohh what a begining to a great weekend it was and all credit goes to the Indiblogger team for such a great arrangement.

I reached a little early there and took few snaps of the venue. All the bloggers were greeted with lovely drinks and coffee and tea and snacks. There was a photo booth which had a DJ/ RJ console where everyone was supposed to take photographs and the most amazing photo was awarded a special gift.

This is the photo booth were bloggers are faking RJ giri and taking photographs

Me....with the backdrop of the Photobooth

Me..the Fake RJ

That's the Sunsilk photo frame with my Photo on it

There was a popcorn kiosk too for us to munch on while enjoying the movie.The main stage was having live feed of all the bloggers who were dropping in the venue and also the tweets with #SunsilkRealFm.

Before the movie started, the Indiblogger team played few small games of asking favorite numbers of the bloggers, who so evers number was there on the list was awarded cash price, vouchers from Flipkart and what not. Some were also awarded tea bag and cookie :P

Coming to the movie, it was a short and sweet short film made by Anurag Basu on Three friends, Rhea, Sonal and Anu. Rhea's father was the owner of the radio station Real FM 97.5. Due to some mishap the radio station ran out of money and was stranded and her dad suffered a heart attack. The girls had only one day to turn around everything and change the FM station into a cash cow. One life changing challenge..How the girls succeeded was the story and I must say a very inspiring one. There is a lot to take away from the movie, both patriotically and socially. There is this one character in the movie. He is a CA. Wese to CAs are said to be boring. But I am in love with him. He says " do you know how do CAs do birth control? By showing off their personality" . hehehehe :P

To watch the first preview of the movie, tune into MTV tomorrow, Sunday 23rd March at 7 PM.

The film was sponsored by Sunsilk and it was very humble on part of Sunsilk that they did not over do or bombard the film with promotions of their newly launched hair product - Sunsilk Natural Recharge Shampoo and conditioner.

Live Tweets on the main screen

After the screening got over, the whole team of bloggers took a photograph and then, the best tweet was awarded prizes and then the dinner was served.

And I will not forget to mention, we were handed over Indiblogger goodies as in T shirts and PR samples and Goodies from Sunsilk too :D Will review the products soon.

All in all it was a funfilled evening. Thank you Sunsilk and Indibloggers. Hope to see more events coming up.

I will finish off with the sweet song from the movie which I am going to make my hello tune now :P "Ab tak safar acha raha..iss mod se jaye kaha..raastein ab jo bhi ho...dhundugi apna jahaan"

Ofcourse Me Posing for the camera :D

So randomly I just thought of starting a weekly section in my blog - The Thursday Wish List.

Here I will share with you what products or brands I am craving to have... I know wishing for expensive things is not always possible but we can always dream right? :P

And Sharing with all you guys would always give me satisfaction :)

So here it is.....I intend to have these things in my kitty :D

1. The coral pink bag is from PRADA...Ohh I so love the simplicity of the bag and the color is just so tempting

2. This green tub is a great environment friendly product from the TIGI family. It is the TIGI Love Peace & the Planet Eco Freako Cherry Almond Texturizer... Eco Freako...now that is a name that has grabbed my attention. You can buy it from the merchant site www.hairtrade.com

3. Personally I am not a great fan of golden or yellow color. But this golden shimmer prom dress by Bari Jay is a gown to die for. Till date I have loved only two yellow gown - One from the movie " How to Loose a Guy in 10 days " where Kate Hudson wore a beautiful gown and this one featured above.

4. Have you seen those stone studded Steve Madden stilettos? Gorgeous and breath taking

5. I am kinda falling for this cute little Hair Barrette in peacock blue and green with blue zircon. It can be sourced from www.hairtrade.com

Introducing Vegetarian Shop- an Initiative for cruelty free shopping in India

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Wed, 19 Mar 2014 16:16:00 +0000

Hi Everyone!

So I am back after my Holi Holidays in Kolkata. I feel so drained out. After I came back I had to ramp up with all my pending works and had little time to give to my blog. But now I am back with full power. And also I have been nominated for the Liebstar Award by sweet lil Shreoshe...So a double power !! :D

Today I am going to bring out some major issues infront of you and a quick solution to it. Here I am introducing an e-shopping site www.vegetarianshop.in. It is an initiative by handful of good soul to save the innocent animals from being tested upon. It claims to be cruelty free shopping destination which is 100% Vegetarian. It does not manufacture products but endorses and sells brands that are against animal testing and are vegetarian.

About the Company

Few friends with strong professional background and from different fields of life came together to join hands for this initiative. They thought there are no dedicated vegetarian shop in India and also ayurvedic and organic shops are not 100% vegetarian. Then they came to know about how the animal testing is done on poor innocent animals, and then they decided that they would bring in a revolution where they would endorse brands to people which are not only vegetarian but also cruelty free.

Thus started the online portal vegetarianshop.in , a retail show place in Mumbai and an option to sell by telephonic orders too

The company started its operation on 25th August 2013 and is a service from Vegetarian Shop Pvt. Ltd.

Their Call-n-Order Number is 022-25600400, and their products ranges from Cosmetics, Personal Care, Home Care, Baby Care, Washing Care, Stationery, Jewellery, Non Leather Footwear, Accessories and much more...

They deliver products across India and have own logistics for Mumbai for faster and effective delivery and customer satisfaction. They have also started a monthly kit of 100% vegetarian and cruelty free Household products for Mumbai people.

Their few mantras of doing good to the society are listed below:

- People may be vegetarian or non-vegetarian by their eating habits because of their own belief, religion, health or taste reason, but one can always adopt a cruelty free lifestyle by taking care of products one uses.

- All organic/ayurvedic/natural/eco friendly products need not be vegetarian/cruelty free.

- At vegetarian shop, we promote products which are totally cruelty free, without any animal ingredient and not tested on animal.

- It is also a myth that cruelty free products means expensive, at www.vegetarianshop.in, you will find a range of products from different catagories with a wide price range which suits every family.

- We do a lot of research and adding new products at regular intervals.

- We would like to pass on the message that there are products like bathing soap, detergent powder, toothpaste, cleaners, etc which may contain animal based ingredients, so one should think about it.

- Our message is that you visit www.vegetarianshop.in, register yourself and order products which you are using regularly from our range of brands. Use it, feel it and than decide if it is not compromising in terms of your preference, liking, budget and aesthetics, than continue use it and recommend others to use the same. We are having a range of products which you use/refill every month, so basically we suggest to switch the brand and go cruelty free.

- We provide free home delivery across India for orders worth of Rs. 250 or more.

- We provide cash on delivery also in the city of Mumbai. In case someone would like to place an order on phone, we accept that too.

- We would like to make life easier for everyone and encouraging a compassionate lifestyle.
