My experiment with Lip Tattoos

Today I am going to review the most fun, interesting and possibly unique products I've ever tried till date - lip tattoos. I've already heard a lot about them and even saw a couple of youtube videos to see how they work. Interesting they sound from the concept; they are so much fun to use. I absolutely had a ball trying these lip tattoos, and here goes the review below: Price: Around $5-$8 Usage: Once My experience with these lip tattoos When I received these lip tattoos, I had absolutely no idea how to use them. After watching a couple of youtube videos on how to use them, I dared myself to give one a try. I had to be absolutely perfect in using them, coz otherwise once ruined, it is gone forever. I started by cutting both upper and lower lip tattoos separately and then matched their shapes to my lips. One good thing about these lip tattoos is that they come with cutting guidelines more horizontally and vertically to help you get your perfect shape. It i...

My experience with Lancaster Retinology Total Age Solution

I received 2 samples of 3ml each of this particular cream  with my shopping at Douglas, Germany. I am already using Lancaster Aquamilk daily, which has become my HG now as a night cream. Even though I am not much into anti-aging stuffs now, I thought of giving Lancaster Retinology Total Age solution a try. The samples that I got, lasted for 2 weeks, and during this time I didn't change any other skin care routine from what I was following already.

Review: Omved Mint Lip Balm

This was another product that I received in my January's blisscovered box. However, instead of deluxe samples and travel sizes as I got of other products, this one came in full size. So, yeayeeee for that! :) Now coming to the review, I've been using it daily almost 3-4 times a day since past 2-3 weeks now. Check out the details below: My experience with this lip balm The moment I saw this lip balm I loved the cute round packaging of it, and you simply needs to twist the cap around and pull it up to see the product. The product looked like a thick " ghee " to me. In fact, when I rubbed my fingers on it, it did give a slight film on my fingers too. Alarmed, I smelled the product and thankfully it doesn't smell like ghee there. It is a transparent lip balm hence you can apply it beneath lipstick of any shade without altering its color. It smells faintly of mint, and the smell isn't very prominent. In fact, during the initial few days of ...

Review: Clarins White+ HP Clear Softening Peeling Gentle Renewing Lotion

Hi friends, I hope you all are doing well and having a relaxing Sunday today. I've recently moved to a new location called "Sindri" which is located in the North-Eastern part of India and since past one month my skin had gone really dull and tired because of all the packing, traveling, and unpacking and house repair work. Most of my makeup stuffs are still packed, the reason why I've not been able to write posts and reviews regularly here. Now, as the things are settling down, I will hopefully write here regularly and even answer the queries that have been pending for so long. Coming to this Clarins Clear Softening Peeling Gentle Renewing Lotion, I got a 30 ml sample of this particular lotion in my January blisscovered box. However, because of all this moving business in action, I couldn’t use it before. I haven't got a chance to use any other skin treatment since past few weeks but have managed to use this particular lotion daily since past 2-3 weeks n...

Beauty Starts from Within

(Guest post by Ivana Vitali) As many words in our language, “beauty” is often a misconceived term. We always associate it, maybe indirectly, or maybe not, with the stereotype of physical perfection that society imposes at the present: for example, a young slim angel-face girl. This is the kind of model we see nowadays on T.V, magazines, ads, etc. However, this stereotype is sure to change from time to time. Just think about this: in the fifteenth century, upper-class women from the North of Europe would pluck their hairline to make their foreheads look higher…yes, sounds painful…but can we say it is a lot different from our waxing? Can we actually say it is more painful? Can we say this is wrong without assuming that we do use invasive methods to fit the stereotype? Image Source If you look up for the word “beauty” on a Merriam Webster dictionary, the first entry you will find is: “ the quality or aggregate of qualities in a person or thing that gives pleasure to the sense...

Review: Lotus Herbals AloeSoft Daily Body Lotion with SPF 20

Body lotions are must for me, no matter what season comes. I have dry skin on my body which becomes super dry in winters. However, since these days winters in India, (even in north) begin to start fading by the end of January, I thought of getting myself some lighter, cooler and refreshing body lotion. While browsing through online websites, I came across this particular one and instantly ordered it. I've been using this lotion since past few weeks now and have pretty much liked it so far. Check out more details below: Price and Quantity: INR 255 for 300 ml Suitable for: All skin types The bottle came in a secured packaging and I was quite happy about the push-nozzle thing. It makes the task of taking out a body lotion 100 times easier. The lotion was called AloeSoft and as expected it smells heavenly of aloe vera and cucumber. The good thing is that it has SPF 20 too which I didn't notice at the time of order. The lotion comes out in a thick white liquid and ...

Review: Faces Canada Glam on Silk Lipgloss - #100 F111

All that glitters is not gold and when it comes to lipglosses, I definitely have the same thought. This particular lipgloss from Faces Canada is a part of their Glam on silk range and though it looks gorgeous and lovely in the tube, I've kind of love-hate relationship with it on my lips. Check out more details below: Price: INR 399 Quantity: 5.6ml My experience with this lip gloss When I saw this lipgloss in its tube, all I could admire was how beautiful it looked. The starry white liquid with color reflecting particles and glitters. It was a treat to the eyes. However, I could sense how it'd look on my lips and that was definitely not my idea of a cool and casual friday office markeup. When I applied it on my lips, I saw what was expected. The transparent gloss and its small cute glitters spread across my lips to reflect light and different colors like a disco ball. In case you want to play the vampire Alice in your college or school skit, you can consider app...
