Autumn/Fall 2013 must have Jewelleries

Hi Beauties,

As I say often, I am a confirmed shopaholic when it comes to Accessories.

A well worn and carefully chosen Accessory not only accentuates your looks but it can add multiple colours to your personality.

When I go out, in the absence of any suitable accessory, like most of you I also feel incomplete.

The October has begun its slow journey, the Festive season is almost at our doorstep, so it’s high time we take a step back and check out the new trends or the Must Haves in Autumn/Fall-2013 Accessory collection.

Faces Glam On Blush: For Instant glow

Hi Beauties,

Today I am reviewing a product from the clan of well known, FACES Canada Cosmetics Brand.

Since its entry in early 2009, Faces products are doing well in Indian market. I guess till date they have over 30 city presences (the exhaustive list is available at their website)

From my own experience I see that strong presence in retail and exclusive outlets across India is probably their major strength.

Maybelline Color Show nail Paint:First day First show!!( Part1)

Hi Beauties,

 Some of you may be wondering why I am writing back to back nail enamel posts….

Actually I can always give you the clichéd high street model’s quote “There is never enough colour on your nails” …..

But let me give you the honest version.

Ever since I had seen actress Alia Bhatt showing off her nails wearing these candies (in a newspaper clip) I was kind of looking forward to the launch of Maybelline Color Show nail paints.

I actually committed myself to review the product whenever I get a hold of it.

I was so eager to check them out at the first chance; I literally had an altercation with the gate keeper of a H&G shop which was closed by the time I had reached there. The poor guy kept saying “Kaal bhi ham log rahenge !!”

But finally I got in and made the purchase, well, not a single SA, but there was this workaholic cashier who was there in the shop at 10 PM on Sunday!! The patient guy had shown me the way and allowed me to hoard 7 of the 20 available shades from his outlet.

What happens when you finally get hold of the first day fist show ticket after all the knickknacks ….

Hmm… read on for the full review,....

Nail Paint Review : Bourjois Paris 10 days No Chips Nail Enamel

Hi Beauties,

Have you ever wondered how we associate ourselves to a new product?

Well there might be umpteen number of good/bad publicities, brand advertisements, celebrity endorsements (basically the usual theatrics) which the companies can do to allure us into !!

But both of us know that we are very very particular and at times very (insanely ?) instinctive when it comes to checking out a brand.

Actually as independent and educated fashionistas of the  new era we love the phonetics and pay a lot of attention to the adjectives associated with any product.

More often than not we try to judge a product category from its tag line :) (Believe me its true !!)

There are words like “Classic, Royal” which when used in proper way and quantity give us a sense of aristocracy about a product, similarly adjectives like “Posh, Delicate, Cosmopolitan” renders feminity to the image of the product.

Well, then how about “Middle-Class” as a full blown product tag name.

Surprised? well read on !!!!! …….

Lakme CC Cream : A Wooing Beauty Exclusive !!

Hi Beauties,

Hope all of you are rocking as usual!!

The festivals are knocking at our doors. Thanks to ever accommodating Mr. SR I am kind of in the middle of a Shopping Binge.

The sad part is, this is going to be the first Durga Puja in my life where I will be staying away from my City of Joy. 

On the flip side, I am going to enjoy and experience the Durga Puja in Bangalore in its full flow.

All girls will agree “We need time to Shop”. 

Simply just going to a mall and visiting some pre-planned shops and buying predetermined merchandises (like the way Mr. S.R. loves/wants me to do) does not work for us.

When it comes to shopping, I can’t just make "a" list, I need to visit places, “touch” the merchandises, feel the product, smell the fragrance etc. etc. then only I can buy them.

So when it comes to festive season it has always been a series of “long but rewarding” shopping sessions for me.

Anyways, coming to the product that I am going to review today, it is the recently launched Lakme Complexion Care Cream a.k.a CC cream.

Actually to be honest I didn’t have a good enough experience with BB creams from Maybelline and Garnier ( I read somewhere some company is coming up with a DD cream. I guess enough of alphabetical jugglery …lol )

So this time I was a bit apprehensive with this product.

However the ever persuasive SA was finally successful in convincing me to bring it home.
