THE FACE SHOP: MANGO SEED MILD SHINE ESSENCE REVIEW

Hello Hearts!

As winters approach my dry skin starts getting drier and soon flakiness along with breakouts occur :( I have to take special care of my sensitive skin as no amount of make-up works if 'flakiness' increases.What I have seen works best in the situation, is to use multiple products that are light weighted on your skin instead of using just one heavy product. That way my skin drinks up something of everything and then it seems to be nice and happy :)

The Face Shop has some amazing skincare products to offer and it is my saviour in all seasons. I use the Mango Seed Mild Shine Essence right after washing my face, to prep my skin before using a cream.

Price- $15 approx for 50 ml

Spice & Salt: Fabindia Black Sesame and Salt Body Polisher Review

Hello beauties,

I have used TBS Body Polisher and quite enjoyed the experience. I picked the Fabindia Black Sesame and Salt Body Polisher as I had never heard of a salt and spice body product before. The concept was very appealing. 

Price- Rs 225 for 100g

How To Bleach At Home Safely: Oxylife Crème Bleach With Glow Serum

All of us are aware that we should keep ourselves away from bleaching often. However once in a while it is important for us to indulge.I have sensitive dry skin, even a wonder ingredient like 'Haldi/Turmeric' gives me rashes, yes my skin is that sensitive :(
I once had a terrible incident in a reputed salon while bleaching, my skin turned red and started burning! Since then I have started bleaching at home as I just cant risk that incident again. In fact my mother recalls that she has been safely bleaching her face at home since 20-25 years.
Oxylife and VLCC are 2 brands which have good bleaching products in the Indian Market. Out of the two i prefer Oxylife as it delivers more drastic effects. This product comes with a whole kit- a pre bleach cream,a white creme, an activator, and a glow serum. The glow serum is a new introduction.

Mango Breakfast Facial

Mango being the king of all fruits, does not only taste amazing but also has beauty benefits. Few months more and mangoes will no longer be available so let us make full use of this delicious fruit now!

I am not much into diy, I only indulge in homemade stuff when I actually find the diy procedure to be simple and very effective.

Mangoes are high in Vitamin A & C, which make it a power house rich in anti oxidants. This means mangoes impart younger looking skin, and thus prevents ageing.

Why is the word 'breakfast' added to the name of this facial? Simply because it includes almonds,oats and milk!

I like using raw milk as it has so many benefits which arent destroyed by boiling. It contains lactic acid and has various kinds of healing and skin lightening properties. Oats and almonds are excellent for exfoliation.

A Classic Summer Favorite: The Body Shop Satsuma Shower Gel

Honestly, I was never a fan of TBS. I never seem to be very connected with most of their fragrances.I mean i never found a 'wow' or 'cant live without' kind of a product in their range ( you know what i mean)!

The Body Shop Satsuma Shower Gel, however, is an exception! It has a fresh, citrusy smell. The gel is orange in color and lasts for a very long time. It is not at all drying on the skin, infact this is something I appreciate about all TBS Shower gels. It does a great job cleansing my skin and awakens my senses in the shower with its refreshing fruity fragrance. The fragrance is strong but vanishes right after bath.

Priced at Rs 340 for 250 ml, this shower gel will last you for a long time.

Last Words- The Body Shop Satsuma Shower Gel is truly a Summer Classic Favourite which i have and will always go back to. I would say, Girls, who love oranges go fetch your Satsuma Shower gels soon..what are you waiting for?

Za Skincare: Currently trying & Amazon India Review

Hello everyone! I just wanted to do a quick update on the current skincare products I have been trying. I was waiting for the launch of Za products in India ever since I heard of them and I grabbed them from amazon as soon as they were launched.

List of products with price-

1) Za Perfect Solution Facial Cleansing Foam ( Rs 359)
2) Za Perfect Solution Moisturiser (Rs 989)
3) Za True Ex White Day Cream (Rs 899)

I ordered my Za Products from a seller named ''Newu'' in amazon and the package reached me safely in time. None of the items were damaged and I also got discount. I hope the seller keeps up good service so that I can shop more from this site :)

I am still using the products and looking forward to share my experience with you as soon as I am sure of what I think of them....xoxo!

  

My Summer Skin Heroes: Part 1

Hello beauties, how have you all been? It is as hot as 42 degrees in my hometown. The percentage of humidity is also very high. Hence, my skin was showing signs of irritation and discomfort. I was facing severe breakouts, which were leaving behind stubborn marks. Also my skin was feeling dehydrated in some areas whilst oily in the others. To add to these problems I have uneven skintone which made my skin look worse.

The moment I realised that this skin condition was not normal, I sprang up and swore ''no makeup'' till my skin condition improves. I stopped using every product that I was using then and shifted to new products.

My first rescuer was Neutrogena Deep Clean Facial Cleanser (price- Rs 85 for 50 ml). I have always seen myself going back to this cleanser during summers (when my skin breaks out) and this has never let me down. This is more of a ''love it'' or ''hate it'' kind of a product, and I am definately a part of the ''love it'' cult!
The Cleanser deeply cleanses the face and removes impurities. It is quite easy to wash off and it makes the skin squeaky clean. I see my pimples vanishing once i start using this product. The cleanser is of yellowish transparent gel like texture.

However the cleanser does dry out my skin. I always feel the need to apply some cream to moisturise my skin immediately after using this facial cleanser. This is the point where, my second rescuer comes into the picture- Olay Total Effects 7 in One Cream+ Serum Duo.

Never in the wildest of my dreams would I have thought that Olay would be so effective, and that one day I would be raving about it in my blog. This Cream+Serum Duo did wonders for my skin. I used it twice a day after washing my face, and in no time it solved the problem of my uneven skintone. It also helped to get rid of stubborn pimple marks on my skin. It did not cause any breakouts. The Duo does not leave behind any greasiness, and gets absorbed quickly.In no time it made my skin was glow and I was receiving compliments!

Priced at Rs 369 for 20 gms, The Olay 7 in One Cream+Serum Duo lasts very long. Also it is hygenically packed with a pump like dipenser. A cherry on the top, is that it offers spf 15, what more could one ask for?

I really adore these two products and i can say that these have been life changing for me. What makes me more happy is that they both are reasonably priced, effective and easily available throughout the country.

So this was part 1 of the 'summer skin heroes' , in the part 2 i will be talking about some other products that have been effective...probably a scrub or a toner.
Also I would love to know how you deal with  your Summer skin issues? Which products have been life changing for you? Do share!

Nivea In Shower Body Moisturiser Skin Conditioner~ Now In India!

Hello beauties!

I am so excited to discuss a product i have been waiting to be launched in India since such a long time. Nivea,i think has started blessing Indian beauties by launching all of their good products in India...first it was lip butters and now the skin conditioner!

I had first heard of Lush Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner, but that was very expensive ( Rs 1900 for 225gms) so i had to give it a pass. However now my dream can come true with Nivea which is so reasonably priced- Rs 250 for 250 ml. 

I have been on the look out for this product in various stores but havent spotted it yet. I have spotted this product in nykaa.com.However I usually prefer to buy liquids directly from the stores as there is always a possibility of leakage during online shopping. So i am going to wait for it to reach my nearest store ( it is getting harder day by day)!

I think this product will be great for summers, especially when we are feeling so hot and sweaty that we dont want to slather on lotion. Also, it will be be fantastic for those days when we are in a hurry and have no time to apply body lotion. Now i have all these high expectations from this skin conditioner. I really hope it stands upto my expectations. I will try to get my hands on this one, asap and share my thoughts with you.

Have you spotted this product yet? If yes, then lucky you! Also, if you have got a chance to try this product then what are your thoughts on it? Do share! xoxo!
