The Nature's Co Grapefruit Body scrub- review, photos
Sometimes most of us get too involved with our face care but tend to ignore our body. But the fact is that even our body requires a proper care & is not to be neglected, in summers as well as winters. If you always care the same for your body like your face, I’ll really appreciate you. Our body too requires a routine care like our face, a routine care according to the weather. If we use a body butter in the dry weather then what in humid weather? The answer is a body scrub!
Something about a body scrub
A body scrub is a suspension of coarse granules (apricot, walnut, oatmeal, sea salt) in a semi-liquid medium or gel (often resembling the consistency of body butter or a moisturizing lotion).A body scrub will actually help to remove all the dead skin off your body and expose a supple layer of younger skin, making you feel fresh and rejuvenated, It is the best way to remove a skin tan. If your skin had become rough and has darkened due to pollution or exposure to dust, you can use a body scrub to remove the rough skin layer leaving you with a soft and supple skin.A body scrub is generally used in a complete spa treatment, which involves the use of an exfoliating body scrub and is followed by a hydrating body wrap to nourish the skin and keep it fresh and supple. In case you are not going for the beauty treatment at a spa, you can use a body scrub while having your bath and exfoliate your skin. The routine will be the same like your face scrub. You should use it once or twice in a week, especially in summers and monsoon; but you should use a body butter in winter to maintain the moisturizer balance of your body.

Shinny Gray lens from PinkyParadise
If you are my regular reader, then you must be well aware of the fact that I had tried a lens for the first time in my life. But the experience was so nice that I when I was asked by Pinky Paradise lens for reviewing their lens, without any hesitation I agreed. They asked me to choose the color, this time I chose a natural color because green was quite a dramatic color so I chose this shiny gray color this time.

NanoStyle-The Beauty of Music
Sometimes it feels strange but it’s true that technology has made everything possible, the thing we only imagined till now, has become possible today. Not only in some fields but everywhere. If we discuss about this matter the time will be less but the discussion will not get over. This technology has made jewelries so different and unique we only surprised to see the art of technology.Rapid prototyping and 3D printing technologies have already been used by some innovative jewelry designers. Custom designs and small production runs are thus possible at much lower costs than ever before.
Nanotechnology is another approach where things are made starting at the atomic and molecular level. The growth of this new technology is so fast that it has already made its way into the jewelry world as well.
Today I'm here with something that is a result of this technology & I'm sure you'll love it!!!!
Some words about NanoStyle
NanoStyle was launched in 2009 after 15 years of experience in the field of fine jewelry.

Rouge Bunny Rouge Metamosphoses Mattifying Primer- Review, Swatches, Photos
After entering the world of blogging I have learnt many new things about makeup, I had never used a primer or base before applying my foundation earlier, but after sometime when I came to know about it, I did try some makeup base but they couldn’t attracted me because I didn’t get satisfactory results after using them. Honestly said, I really needed a good eye primer since a long time, I had ordered an NYX HD primer from ebay but unfortunately it got misplaced in its way and my wish to get a primer remained unfulfilled but now I have got a primer which compelled me to think that sometimes thing comes late but comes best…really I believe it and today I’m reviewing an amazing primer from Rough Bunny Rouge which after using, I admitted the importance of a primer and makeup base.
Rouge Bunny Rouge Metamorphoses Mattifying Primer
It’s a primer which has multipurpose usage, you can use it with your moisturizer to reduce the oiliness and the excess shine of your skin especially on the T-zone area. It can be used as a makeup base, eye primer base and even can be apply on your lips to grow your foundation, eye shadow and lipstick intensity and for a long lasting look.
What it claims
The feather-weight texture of our Mattifying Primer miraculously gives your skin a velvet matte suede glow; it removes the unwanted shine completely and evens out your skin tone.Thursday, August 18, 2011
Makari de Suisse Anti-UV Whitening Cream- Review
I have reviewed many products from Makari De Suisse. Almost all the products except their soap, have proved to be great and true on their value of cost. Today I’m going to evaluate about another product of this brand. Monsoon is on its climax and after that just within two months the cold winters will start. In the chilled weather, the most comfortable thought that comes into the mind is sitting in under the sun. But there is always a fear of some of the harmful sun rays of the sun. But if we apply a good sunscreen on our face and the parts that are exposed to the sun, we can save our skin from the damaging sun rays and enjoy the warm sunlight as well. Today I’m going to introduce you to an anti-UV sunscreen from Makari De Suisse which is going to prove a good sunscreen especially for winters.
Makari Anti-UV Whitening Cream
This is sunscreen lotion + whitening cream which saves from the damaging sunrays and evens out the skin if it has dark patches on it.

Light Up Your Lips Lip GlossThe New Nude Collection by Sleek Makeup- A preview
Sleek MakeUP’s NUDE COLLECTION resonates from the clean, fresh-faced beauty that reigns over the fashion industry, and no longer is this colour story all about beige. Sleek MakeUP’s new collection is a celebration of ethereal beauty, ranging from earthy browns, variations of tan, and pearly oysters. The dominant makeup trend emerging from the A/W ’11 shows is one of far fewer bold brights and many more neutral, taupe dustings of colour; now the focus is on perfect skin, natural shades of makeup, and a real sense of purity.

Rouge Bunny Rouge Haighlighting liquid- Review, Swatches & FOTD tutorial
Highlighter plays an important role in makeup & being without an highlighter is something like a room with all precious decorations but no lights! I didn’t know it’s importance earlier, and never tried to use a highlighter on my face because I had been thinking that I don’t need any highlighter but after learning some makeup tips I knew that highlighter is an essential part of our makeup. It doesn’t make our makeup loud but it gives a healthy and glowing look to our face. It highlights the lovely features of your face and makes your face the center of attraction. Anyways, after knowing its quality I tried many highlighters available in our market and realized their effect on my face but if you ask about my favorite highlighter ever, It's none other than Rouge Bunny Rouge Seas of Illumination Highlighting Liquid in Sea of nectar. I realized its quality after using only first time. Till then I have applied it many times and on the behalf of my own experience I can say without any hesitation that it’s my favorite highlighter ever. Today I’m going to review this lovely highlighter.

Sleek Makeup Oh So Special Palette- review, swatches & photos
A few weeks ago I had reviewed the Caribbean Curacao palette from Sleek Makeup & my readers liked it so much that I’m still receiving mails related that post. No doubt that Sleek Makeup is so much famous between the eye shadow lovers. So today I’m going to review another palette which has been recently launched.
I was wondering about this palette due to it's name and so searched it online, when I saw its shades; I realized that I hadn’t seen such unique shades in any single palette. I had wished to buy this palette then but it’s my luck that I got a chance to try it before its launch. Hey I’ll share my experience with this special palette but before it let me write some more information about it.
Sleek Makeup Oh So Special Eyeshadow Palette
This palette has 12 colors in it. Some are shimmery and some matte. All are daily wearable shades, perfect for both day and night occasions.
