Festive Favorites : My Top Ten Lip Colors this Season

Hi everyone! Wish you all a very happy and blessed Diwali. You must be at your festive best and so must be your homes. 🙂 I’ve been juggling quite a lot between work, home and my blog. I actually did shoots for two posts in a day. Whew! Kinda exhausting, but I enjoy it so much.

Today I will share with you my favorite lippies for this festive season. I have my favorites from bot high-end and drugstore, and lippies with different textures. Since it’s autumn and festive, most of my favorites are richer hues, but I do have a few subtle neutrals as well. Please note that the list is a random order of my favorites, and it is not in any order of preference. 🙂 Read more

Aroma Essentials Chocolate and Milk Scrub is all about Pure Chocolate Indulgence…

Hi people! First of all, a very big sorry to all you lovely readers for not posting anything since long. I had a lot going on at the personal end, and work pressure at office peaked. Could catch up with hardly six hours of sleep at night. Some days, even less. I wasn’t looking and feeling the best over the past few weeks and blogging took a backseat. And I hated it.

I was dying to write. Dying. Not a day went by when I didn’t look forward to a blank canvas and wanted to scribble my heart out! This space is my own, and writing liberates me. And I’m so glad to be back. 🙂 I have a hoard of product reviews wriggling inside my head. That I’m going to share with you by and by. But let me start off with this wonderful Chocolate and Milk Scrub from Aroma Essentials. 🙂

Aroma Essentials Milk and Chocolate Scrub

Not My First Stint with the Brand…

I had used their face mask before that B got me from B’lore, and loved it to bits. This kind lady Madhurima then sent across quite a few products for me to try out. And yes, I ain’t compelled to review any of them. 😀 The reason I’m doing so is ‘cause I want you people to know that vegan products exist, and they’re available big time! And as long as wizards like Madhu and the Ashers (names behind Juicy Chemistry) exist, magical concoctions are bound to happen. 🙂 Read more

Fuschia Lip Balm Review – Alphonso and Black Currant

Hello everyone! Lip balms a necessity during the winter months, even though I need them throughout the year. I recently came across these Fuschia lip balms that are available in a number of variants – choco, caramel and fruity ones. The ones I picked up are Tropical Alphonso and Black Currant, both being my favorite ice-cream faves. 🙂

Liquid Neutrogena Pure Mild Facial Cleanser – Review

Hi everyone! Winter is receding now with spring gradually taking over. But my skin tends to behave quite the same throughout these 3 months. I find a need to switch from my regular skincare regime for oily-combination, to caring for a comparatively drying skin during this time. One product that I have been using devotedly over past few winters is the Liquid Neutrogena Pure Mild Facial Cleanser.

This is what Neutrogena says about the product :

Liquid Neutrogena^® is pure and gentle cleansing for clean, clear, healthy-looking skin.

This glycerin-rich facial cleanser contains no harsh detergents. It removes excess oil and then rinses clean–without leaving any pore-clogging residue. Get clean, clear, healthy-looking skin with Liquid Neutrogena^®.

Fragrance-free
Oil-free
Non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores)
Hypoallergenic
Clean rinsing

The Liquid Neutrogena comes in a transparent plastic bottle with a black pump dispenser. Tasteful, I’d say. It retails for INR 299 for 150ml. It is easily available at Neutrogena counters or online. Read more
