Merry Christmas everyone!!!! (FOTD)


First of all I would like to wish Merry Christmas to all my Christian readers and friends!!
This is the day when our Jesus Christ was born on this earth and brought a message of peace and love for the world. He taught us to live together with universal love and dignity. They also taught us that no one is big or small on this earth, everyone is equal because all human-beings are made by that God. This is the day when we all follow his lesson, teachings and live in this world with love and universal brotherhood. Live and let everyone live.
This is my Christmas look which my readers had requested a lot. I had done this look for my readers before Muharram had begun. The T-shirt which I have worn here is woolen but keeping in mind the current weather you need a warm jacket too so if you like this makeup look, wear a jacket for sure.


The products I used here

Lancome tient Miracle foundation
Eliss Faas concealer
Revlon PhotoReady pressed powder

The Nature's Co Pineapple Lip Balm- Review, photos

One of the most essential things that we require during winters is a lip balm because our lips are one of the most delicate part which always needs a deep care in this dry winters. Before going to bed, after waking up in the morning, after bathing and after every wash of our face, we need to take great care of our lips along with the rest of our face. A good lip balm can do that which our lips require. A good lip balm is that can nourish and moisturize the lips properly but also give them a lovely finish too. I feel proud that India has some great brands who produce not only good natural products for us but also have very high quality in them which make them really world class products. Today I'm going to review the Pineapple Lip Balm from one of the famous Indian brand Nature's Co which is a part of of one of their recently lunched Christmas set.

Pineapple Lip Balm

It is a pineapple flavored lip balm which gives you soft, moisturizing lips !


What The Nature's Co says...
 Get soft, luscious lips with the goodness of pineapple. It moisturizes, protects & leaves lips looking smooth & hydrated.

Ingredients

Mango Butter, Castor Oil, Vitamin E, Kokum Butter and Pineapple Flavour.
weight


10 ml

Price


 Rs.225

Packaging


The packaging is so beautiful and cute. The lip balm comes in a square shaped glass jar with a stylish glass lid through which the lip balm is visible. After opening the lid one has to take out the balm using your fingers.





Texture


The texture feels hard while taking out the product but it starts melting as soon as we start applying it on the lips.

How to apply

 Apply it directly to your lips as often as required.

In the mirror of my own experience


To be honest I don't know why but the beautiful packaging makes me happy. Nature's Co is one of the real luxury brands which always maintains not only their good quality of products but also steals all the numbers of a beautiful and classy packaging. I always love their product's luxury packaging and this time they have proved themselves winner in this field. I'll talk about the product now because only good packaging can't tell the quality of a product so now let's  examine the product. When I first took out the balm from the jar it felt quite hard and I was confused to see it because I've never use a lip balm which feels hard. I had to force my finger in to take out the product but I was astonished to see that as I applied it on my lips the balm melted like a butter and after a while I felt my chapped lips so soft and smooth. The smell of this balm is like pineapple flavor ice-cream or milk shake. The balm is very creamy and mild. After applying my lips instantly felt relieved and became soft and moist quickly. This one stayed on for much longer than other ordinary balms. The effect stays for long for about 3-4 hours easily so I'm very happy about this quality and now this balm will be with me during all this winter for sure. 


Good points


Beautiful classy packaging.
Good to carry out, just be a little careful...it looks adorable when kept somewhere!! 
Very yummy smell!
Hydrates my lips very well.
Stays long on the lips.
It contains very beneficial and natural ingredients in it which is definitely great for lips.




Bad points

The balm feels hard while taking out from the jar but I think it's due to cold atmosphere.
Can be purchased only online or through very few counters in the country.
It's sad that the Nature's Co products are made in Dehradun but still there is no counter here.

Finally...

I'm really happy with the quality of this lip balm. It proved it's efficiency in its first application only and by its effects. It makes my lips well moist and hydrate it properly. Mostly lip balm can't stay on lips for more than about 2 to 2 n a half hours but this lasts really long which is so impressive. My lips remain soft and smooth even after 4 hours. I don't feel dry after so long. So it's one of the best lip balms I have ever used. 


Rating

4.5/5

Recommendation


I want to recommend this great product to my readers and friend as well because I'm sure they are going to love this lip balm in this winter. I request my friends to try it out once.

Availability


You can buy this lip balm from Nature's Co website & counters in some selected cities.

Applicator


The applicator is quite flexible which makes application under control & easy. Thin & precise lines can be made effortlessly.

Texture

In the mirror of my own experience

Liquid liners are a must-have in my makeup kit as I prefer using them over kohl pencils. Till now my favorite liners had been RBR Quartz eyeliner  & Revlon Colorstay liquid liner but now another name can be associated with these. MyFace Slinky eyeliner is completely matte & very deep black in color, with just 1-2 swipes you can get the required result. The texture is very smooth & it glides on so well on the eyes & enable us to make lines without much effort or problem. It's applicator is also very flexible & making lines with it quite easy & under control. Precise designs can be obtained quite easily & quickly. It's consistency is just perfect, neither too thick, nor too thin or watery, just even & smooth lines! It also lasts long without smudging or flaking. 

Good Points
Lovely white packaging!
The beautiful matte texture is really good & the shade is also a very deep intense black.
You can get smooth & even lines effortlessly in just a swipe or two.
Very pigmented.
Perfect consistency.
The product is very reasonably priced!

Bad points
Not available in india, but can be purchased online.
It's not waterproof, with which I have no problems, but some might prefer waterproof ones.

Finally..
Overall, it's a lovely eyeliner & a great option to choose if you're in search of a liquid liner. I've never used such a deep matte liner, so I'm very satisfied with it!

Rating
4.5/5

Recommendation
As I've already said that if you're in need of a good liquid liner, this one's a great choice as besides being impressive, it is also priced very reasonably!

Cure Natural Aqua Gel- Review, photos



When I was  first asked to review the Cure Natural Aqua Gel, I really wasn't aware of its popularity in Asia. I came to know about this product after searching the net. I was amazed to know that this product is very popular in Singapore, Japan, Indonesia and they are almost crazy about this gel. Oh God, what is in this product which has made it so famous, wouldn't you want to know this amazing fact? I was really very excited to write its review after knowing about it and now after using this aqua gel for about one month I'm ready to write its review.
Cure Natural Aqua Gel


Cure Natural Aqua Gel is a facial peel. Mostly  facial peels are a more mild form of an exfoliator but this one happens to have a high water content formula that exfoliates skin mildly without the harsh grainy formula most scrubs sport. This type of formula is used on dry skin, massaged on until it pills and starts rolling off your skin in tiny balls. This type of treatment is considerably more gentle than the normal round of exfoliators and offers a gentle way to remove dead, dry skin.
Cure Natural Aqua Gel is claimed as Japan’s No.1 best-selling exfoliant for the past 7 years. The company has a record of selling 1 bottle every 20 seconds in Asia. It is called as “Facial in a bottle".

What is Cure Natural Aqua Gel 
according to the company

Cruelty-free and has not been tested on animals.
Made of natural ingredients.
Mostly water with an active ingredient of 91% revitalized hydrogen water.
Free of alcohol, artificial coloring and fragrance.
Suitable for all skin types and can be used on sensitive skin.

What the company says...

Our skin is the largest organ in our entire human body and being the outermost layer of covering, it is most exposed to the harmful effects of ultraviolet light and the free radicals on the environment. Our skin undergoes a renewal process every 28 days where the growth of skin cells will push up the old cells to the surface. When these old cells are not removed, it will hinder our skin renewal and regeneration, giving rise to various problems such as clogged pores, blackheads, dull skin tone, blemishes, pimples and etc. CURE gently and effectively remove old and dead skin to regularize skin turnover and prevent skin problems. Cure will complement any facial regime, making sure your moisturizers and serums have better and deeper penetration when your old skin cells are removed. With regular use of Cure, your skin is kept healthy, smooth and glowing.

Weight

250 ml

Price

SP $42.00/ US $32

Ingredients

Water (activated hydrogen water, non-acidic and purified), glycerin (a moisturizer), acrylates/C10-30, alkyl acrylate cross polymer (a thickener), dicocodimonium (a conditioner), chloride, steartrimonium bromide, aloe barbadensis leaf extract (moisturises, protects rough skin), gingko biloba extract (moisturises, prevents skin-mottling and freckles), rosmarinus officinalis/rosemary leaf extract (possesses anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties), butylene glycol.

Packaging




Cure Aqua Gel comes in a white clear plastic pump bottle with a cap. The packaging, though simple but looks beautiful and very easy to use. Just pump out the product and use it. It's travel friendly too.

Texture

The texture of it is in gel form and very gentle in nature.

How to use?

Wash your face to remove all makeup and dirt. Apply a full pump on to your fingertips and gently apply on your face in circular motion. Work for a minute and rinse off with water.
I use almost 1 and sometimes 2 full pumps for my face and neck, the massage the gel in a circular motion, onto my face and neck. Then wash my face with cold water and apply my moisturizer.



In the mirror of my own experience

My first experience was very interesting because when I had applied it on my face and neck and started the massage, I felt that the gel had almost disappeared or finished..Oh that was disgusting, I thought that moment.. but still massaged my face. Then I noticed some debris   like after erasing on paper. I kept massaging and notice some more debris and then I realized actually what the company claimed. After a gentle massage, I washed my face with cold water and dried it with soft towel and applied moisturiser. I clearly noticed the cleanliness and softness of my face. It's very very gentle and works amazingly. I realized  its effect only in 15 days. I use it twice a week and I have been using it for about a month and still using. In winters my skin becomes dry and this exfoliant works well even on dry skin. With using Cure Natural Aqua Gel I do not experience dryness at all after use and I’m left with a dewy, squeaky clean skin. Secondly, I believe the product is so popular due to it’s high content of water which is supposedly makes up of 90% of the product. And finally the product contains a nice dose of glycerin which leaves the skin moist instead of tight after use. It's the most gentle facial exfoliant I have ever used or seen.It's like a gift for me in this dry winter. I feel how lucky the women of east part of Asia are that they have this wonderful product there. But now it's easy to purchase online from Beauty Carousel. com and after finishing it, I'm going to buy my next bottle from there.


Good points

Simple but beautiful packaging.
easy to use and travel friendly.
Very gentle for skin but very effective.
No any harmful ingredients.
No preservatives and not tested on animals.
You can see the difference and effects of it only in one or two weeks.



After rubbing for a few seconds
Bad points

It's not available in India but now you can purchased from Beauty Carousel very easily.
It's fragrance free but it has a light chlorine type of smell which I love but maybe some may not.
No doubt it's quite expensive, but the product lasts for a very long time.

Finally....

I really feel lucky that I got a chance to try out this wonderful product. I couldn't have imagined buying this because I was totally unaware about its greatness and effects before but now I have come to know that how jewel like products are here in Asia and we don't even know about them. In winters I've never felt so comfortable with my skin in such a dry and chilly winter so it's a real winner product for me.

Rating

5/5

Recommendation
