Hi, guys! Today, I will be reviewing an amazing matte blue liquid eyeliner from Faces. It’s the Faces Ultime Pro Matte Play Eyeliner in Blue. I am a big fan of Faces eyeliners. So, when the PR asked me if I would like to try their new matte eyeliners, I readily agreed. This range has two variants- one black and one blue. I was sent the blue variant for review purpose which I really appreciate because not always you get to try matte blue eyeliners!

As I mentioned earlier, Faces has launched its new matte liquid liner range a few months back after successfully launching their matte lip colours and nail paints. They have launched this in two variants- Black and Blue. Here’s what the brand has to say about the range-

“Create your own signature eye looks for FACES Canada now launches Ultime Pro Matte Play eyeliner with intense matte colour in blue and black. With matte being the hottest trend in makeup, FACES Ultime Pro Matte eyeliner delivers rich matte intensity and brings out the depth in your eyes. So complete your matte collection of lip, nail and now eyes.

FACES Ultime Pro Matte Play eyeliner has a super long wear with a stay of 17 hours or more and is quick drying and no transfer eyeliner.

Packaging– The Faces Ultime Pro Matte Play Eyeliner comes in a small, sleek plastic packaging. The colour of the tube resembles the colour of the liner. The applicator is very meticulously designed. It’s a felt-tip applicator with a long, pointy tip making it perfect for beginners or someone like me who always tend to mess up the winged liner.

Colour– The Faces Ultime Pro Matte Play Eyeliner- Blue is a beautiful shade of blue. It is in between navy blue and midnight blue. I quite like the colour as it gives a pop of colour without being too vibrant. I usually avoid coloured eye liners but when I do, I make sure it’s not too vibrant. This matte blue eyeliner gives me what I exactly need.

Formula- I am absolutely in love with the formula of this Faces Ultime Pro Matte Play Eyeliner. It is smooth, not too runny nor too thick, it is just the perfect formula. The application is pretty smooth, glides on easily on the lids and gives an opaque finish in one stroke.

My Experience with Faces Ultime Pro Matte Play Eyeliner

Faces Ultime Pro Matte Play Eyeliner- Blue Review

I am in love with this eye liner since I started using it. I am not very fond of coloured eyeliners but I can experiment with blue. What I love the most about this eyeliner is that it settles into a completely matte finish which is very rare to find in Indian market. Another thing I love about this eye liner is that it glides on smoothly and you don’t need to scribble across your lids to get an opaque application. Also, the long and pointy tip makes it easier to draw precise lines and wings. The staying power is pretty good. It stayed for 5-6 hours on me without budging or fading and I have oily eyelids. It takes a few seconds for the liner to dry to a completely matte finish. The only con is that the eye liner is not waterproof.

Overall, I really enjoy using this Faces Ultime Pro Matte Play Eyeliner in Blue. I would suggest you guys try it out. It is worth the money spent. I am sure you won’t be disappointed.

Have you tried it yet? How is your experience?

Hi, guys! I am back again with yet another post for you. A lot of you got really excited when I shared a picture of the Juicy Chemistry Tea Tree & Charcoal Face Mask that I bought from Nykaa during their Valentine’s Day sale. I have been using it since then and I am so impressed with it that I felt the need to share my thoughts with you guys. So, here I am sharing my review on the Juicy Chemistry Tea Tree & Charcoal Face Mask.

Price- Rs 300 for 25g, Rs 550 for 50g ( Buy here)

Ingredients- Oatmeal, Organic rice flour, Prunus dulcis (Almond meal), Juglans regia (Walnut), Ocimum basilicum (Basil), Rosa (Rose), Lavandula (Lavender), Mentha (Peppermint), Fuller’s earth, Activated Carbon, Mentha piperita (Peppermint essential oil), Piper nigrum (Black pepper essential oil), Citrus bergamia (Bergamot essential oil), Melaleuca alternifolia (Tea tree essential oil), Juniperus communis (Juniper berry essential oil)

Packaging- Juicy Chemistry Tea Tree & Charcoal Face Mask comes in a simple transparent plastic jar with a screw-open lid. A wooden spoon also comes along with the product. The label on the tub has all the information including ingredients, usage and effectiveness. I really like the simplicity of the packaging. It looks simple but definitely not cheap.

How to Use- Juicy Chemistry Tea Tree & Charcoal Face Mask comes in a powder form. So, you need to make a paste out of it using either water or milk. I like to use it with organic rose water.

My Experience with Juicy Chemistry Tea Tree & Charcoal Face Mask

Juicy Chemistry Tea Tree & Charcoal Face Mask Review | Cherry On Top

As I said earlier, I have been using this for the past few weeks. I use this pack twice a week and every time I use it I see visible results. I use rosewater to make a paste out of the powder. When the paste is made, you can see that it is a little crumbly. This is because of the finely milled oatmeal and almond. I apply the mask evenly on my face using a spatula and then let it dry until its semi-wet. Then, I just rub it on my face in circular motions and finally wash it off using lukewarm water. I finish it off by splashing cold water on my face.

The oatmeal and almond meal in this mask efficiently exfoliates the skin and removes blackheads. One of the two main ingredients, activated carbon, sucks out any dirt from the pores and unclog them. Another main ingredient is Tea tree oil which is really effective on acne. Its antibacterial property helps fight acne. Then there is peppermint which is great for oily skin as it controls the secretion of excessive sebum and prevents the pores from being clogged and causing acne. My skin is not acne-prone so I can’t tell you if this face pack really works on acne or not.

I would highly recommend this mask to you. The smaller size comes for Rs 300 only and you get the benefits of a scrub and a mask in one product. This is definitely a great value for money. This product is all-natural, contains no preservative and good for sensitive skin. Those who have oily or combination skin must try it out this summer. This controls excess oiliness without making the skin dry.

What’s your favourite face mask at this moment?

If you follow me on Snapchat, you’d know that I got inspired by Komal of MyHappinesz and tried baking a scrumptious Oreo cake. You’d have watched me use my new Tupperware Ultimo Speedy Chef to mix the cake batter. Now in this post, I’ll share the simple recipe with you and will let you know the features of the cute little device that I used. The recipe was originally published on POPxo‘s Facebook page. So, let’s get started-

Tupperware Ultimo Speedy Chef is such a fuss-free, easy-to-use kitchen tool for working men and women and also for those who don’t like to spend a lot of time in the kitchen and for those who are constantly in search of something that makes cooking easier. This small kitchen aid is dishwasher and microwave safe and takes very little space in your kitchen. It comes with an anti-skid foot ring. It also has measurements written on the body which is really helpful. This Speedy Chef is basically a manual whipping and whisking tool that could be used to beat eggs for omelettes, make mayonnaise, mix cake batter, whip fresh cream, whisk egg whites faster than your usual whisk and also, it is noise-free, unlike your electric beater. Obviously, it is not as fast as an electric beater but you can regulate how much smooth or coarse you want your mixture to be. Plus, it has a hole on the top of the handle which allows you to add flavourings while mixing or whisking anything. Here is all that you can do with your Tupperware Ultimo Speedy Chef-

  • Prepare whipped cream for decorating cakes and desserts. Add flavouring such as vanilla essence through the funnel.
  • Prepare light pancake batters, omelettes, mousses and other whisked desserts.

 Disclaimer- Product sent by the brand in exchange for an honest review.

Three things that I have always (not so) secretly desired are a perfect matte red lipstick within budget, a wallet that never gets empty and a packet of healthy chips. Well, although I am still on a hunt for the first two but I have finally found the latter.

Recently, when my sister and I hosted a party at our place we though we should do something adventurous with the snacking option. As both of us were busy studying the entire day, we rejected the idea of cooking snacks ourselves and instead we thought of serving Terra Chips to our guests. I had heard a lot about this brand before and I did not want to miss this opportunity to try them.

We had three variants of Terra Chips- Original, Mediterranean Sea Salt and Blue Potato. We chose three different dips for our chips.

We served it at the beginning of the party and our girls loved them. Two batches were finished in minutes. It was that good. Generally people don’t like to stuff themselves with food at the beginning of a party, especially if it is chips or something fried. But, Terra Chips are not just chips, they are gourmet snacks with less oil and spice which is healthy and comforting.

At the end of the party, my friends said that they had never eaten something like it before. Our party-starter was a hit. I am quite sure Terra Chips would be a part of every party we will be attending after that party.

About Terra

Terra is a brand of chips that is famous across the globe for their exotic flavours and ingredients. If there is anything called a luxury snacks brand, that definitely has to be Terra. TERRA is a brainchild of two New York-based chefs Dana Sinkler and Alex Dzieduszycki.  This brand is famous for its gourmet snacking.

How is Terra Different from Others

Snacking Adventure with Terra| Cherry On Top

Snacking Adventure with Terra| Cherry On Top

Not typical to other brands, Terra is quite distinguishable from its packaging to taste. Terra chips are made with real vegetables. The exotic vegetables like Taro, Candy-striped beet, Blue potato, Batata, Yuca etc. are some of the main ingredients of these chips. Terra chips are a blend of these real, whole vegetables with mouth-watering flavours. These chips are not only a good blend of flavours but also a blend of vibrant colours.  The crunch, the taste will definitely take you on an exotic culinary journey.

My Experience with Terra Chips

When I received this beautiful black box with three variants of Terra chips, I was overjoyed. Firstly, I love healthy snacking (I should eat healthier though) and lastly because I had heard a lot of good things about this brand. I received the three variants, namely- Mediterranean Herbs and A Hint of Lemon, Original Sea Salt, and Blues Sea Salt. All of them tasted quite good. The Mediterranean and Original ones are made of Parsnip, Taro, Sweet Potato, Yuca and Batata and Blues is made of naturally blue potatoes. Among all three of them, Blues is my most favourite one. All these variants have the goodness real veggies in them and the veggies are non-GMO which means they are not genetically modified. In one word, they are wholesome. The flavours are fresh, really crunchy and less oily. It gives you a feeling as you are eating something healthy. These are also great as party starters when you serve the perfect assortment of snacks that is a treat to both your tongue and your eyes.

I would recommend you guys try at least a bag of this and try it out yourself. TERRA chips are available online on Amazon or you can buy them from your nearest Godrej Nature’s Basket store. I hope you guys found this review helpful. Don’t forget to comment and share if you did. See you in my next post. Till then, be safe & keep smiling!

You guys must know Nykaa recently has come up with their own range of makeup. After the successful launch of their nail paints and bath & body products, Nykaa announced their new baby which is the ‘So Matte’ range of lipsticks. Ever since I saw Nykaa’s Instagram story about their new launch, I was determined to try them out as soon as they hit the market. I kept the promise and got two shades from the range. Today, I will be reviewing the Nykaa So Matte Lipsticks  for you.

Nykaa So Matte lipsticks have 13 shades in the range. The shade range has a quite diverse colour palette, from nudes to pinks, reds and plums. I liked how they tried to include at least one from each colour family. After investing a lot of time choosing two best shades from the entire range, I ended up buying Orange Vice and Pink Flirt. Continue reading this post for the review and some swatches.

Price- 399 INR

Packaging- The Nykaa So Matte Lipsticks come in very pretty reddish/pinkish watercolour patterned boxes. The lipstick bullets are housed in matte black cuboid cases that have metallic Nykaa logo on them. Each case has a magnetic closure to them which is really cool and convenient as it makes the lipsticks safe for travelling. I really liked the sleek and classy look of the lipstick cases. Although I am not a big fan of these cuboid-shaped lipstick cases as I find it difficult to have a good hold while applying directly with the bullet and also, they do not fit into my lipstick organiser. I don’t know if anyone faces the same problem or not but I do.

Nykaa So Matte Lipsticks Orange Vice & Pink Flirt| Review & Swatches| Cherry On Top
(L-R) Pink Flirt and Orange Vice

Shades- The two shades that I got from the Nykaa So Matte Lipsticks collection are Orange Vice and Pink Flirt. Orange Vice is a bright orange lipstick with a little bit of rust/brown undertones. Although this lipstick looks bright on the lips, it looks a bit toned down and rustier in the bullet. Pink Flirt, on the other hand, is a bright fuschia colour that will suit almost every skin tone. I love pinks with blue undertones as it makes my face brighter and my teeth whiter. I like both the shades.

Pigmentation- These lipsticks are very pigmented. You get an opaque application in the first swipe. Although I have noticed a patchy application on my upper lip which is darker than my lower lip. It happened with the shade Pink Flirt. Orange Vice had a smooth and opaque colour distribution.

Texture- Although, Nykaa describes their So Matte lipsticks as matte, they do not go with our usual notion of a matte lipstick. These lipsticks are in between matte and satin. The texture of Nykaa So Matte Lipsticks is very soft and creamy. They are not drying, easy to apply, they glide on the lips smoothly, feel comfortable on the lips and the application is even. Being creamy mattes, they are just perfect for winters.

Staying Power- Nykaa So Matte Lipsticks stay put on my lips for about 4-5 hours at a stretch, without any touch ups. I had applied the shade Pink Flirt during pandal hopping on Kali Puja (Diwali) and in spite of the hot and humid weather and light snacking every now and then it lasted quite long, for about 5 hours. It only starts fading from the centre afterwards. I am quite happy with its longevity.

My Views on the Nykaa So Matte Lipsticks

I am quite impressed with this new launch from Nykaa. These lipsticks are something that I can use every day during winters. My lips become very dry during winters and I don’t like putting on lipgloss, so choosing a lipstick for winters has always been a pain for me. I think I finally have got my perfect wintertime matte lippies. The best thing about these lipsticks is that they don’t settle into fine lines which a blessing for me because I have creases on my lips that make any matte lipstick look horrendous if I don’t hydrate my lips before the lipstick application. These Nykaa So Matte lipsticks are very hydrating that you don’t need any separate moisturisation before application.

Taking them off is quite a pain for me as they don’t want to come off completely even if you using a waterproof makeup remover. They leave a subtle tinge after you take it off. Other than that, I love them. These lipsticks smell like vanilla, the scent is pretty close to that of the MAC ones. They are creamy, hydrating, long-lasting and they don’t bleed. I think getting such quality withing a price-tag of only Rs 399 is quite a good deal. I would highly recommend these Nykaa So Matte Lipsticks to you guys. You can find them exclusively in the Nykaa website.

I hope you liked this review. Tell me what you feel about these lipsticks in the comments. I’ll be back with a new review very soon. Till then, be safe & keep smiling!

Hey, everyone! Finally, my exams are over and I am ready to dedicate myself solely to blogging. I have missed blogging so much in the past few weeks. So, I am back again with a new post for you guys. Today’s post is going to be a review on the two perfumes I received from Neesh, one is their Rose E Mohabatt and the second one is Belle D’ Oud. So, without wasting any time, let’s jump into the post-

About Neesh

Before starting with the actual review let me share a few words about the brand, Neesh. Neesh is one of the fast-growing perfume
brands in India, creating something unique with their passion and has established a signature style. Their unique packaging, unmatched fragrance, and unparallel quality within such an inexpensive price tag, make them stand out from the rest.

Neesh perfumes come in 12 variants, 6 for men and 6 for women. Here are the names-

Men’s Collection- Oud-E-Khaas | Moha-Beau-T | Eau-De-Mehfil | Attar-E-Neesh | Attar-E-Nazakat | Atar-E-Ishq

Women’s Collection- Zaafran-E-Hindustan | Sultana | Rose-E-Mohabatt | Oud-De-Venice | Belle-D-Oud | Amour-De-Oud

They have three different categories of perfumes- light (ingredients like citrus, fruits. flowers etc.), medium (ingredients like tea, honey chocolate etc) and strong (ingredients like vanilla, must, wood, mukhallat etc) to help you choose according to your preference. The samples I got are from the light/medium family.

I am very bad at describing scents but still will try to do as much as I can. Please don’t be mad at me 😛

Prize- 340 INR

Rose E Mohabatt

Neesh Perfumes Rose-E-Mohabatt and Belle-D'-Oud Review| Cherry On Top

Rose-E-Mohabatt is my favourite of the two I received. It has a very sweet and warm scent to it which I found very feminine and delicate. The base note has Amber and Musk and this perfume is a perfect balance of these two. It’s more ambery than musky if that makes any sense!

Top Note– Honey-Suckle, Saffron

Middle Note– Rose, Lavender, Myrrh, Styrax.

Base Note– Musk, Amber, Labdanum

Buy here.

Belle D Oud

Neesh Perfumes Rose-E-Mohabatt and Belle-D'-Oud Review| Cherry On Top

Belle D Oud is also a nice fragrance but it is a bit strong for my taste. It has the essences of floral, fruity and also musky and amber notes. The fragrance is fresh and feminine, a little stronger than Rose E Mohabatt.

Top Note– Honey, Berry, Iran Saffron

Middle Note– Indian Rose, Exotic Prune

Base Note– Musk, Dark Amber

Buy here.

Overall, I like both Rose E Mohabatt and Belle D Oud, the first one being my favourite. The fragrances I received are very feminine and last for a long time, at least 9-10 hours on me. Note that no perfume lasts on me for more than 5 hours. I am really impressed with the longevity. Neesh Perfumes are brilliant combinations of attar and high-quality global scents. Thus, they have an oriental feel and warmth in them. I love that. All their perfumes come in 20ml pikpacks, which are very travel-friendly because they can be carried everywhere for the fact that they are not packaged in glass bottles. These perfumes fit in your pocket and purse very easily. Each spray of Neesh perfumes costs only Re 1.

They also have gifting options for both men and women. You can find out more about them on their website www.neesh.in. I would suggest you to try at least one perfume from their range. I am sure you will like them. These perfumes are available on Flipkart, Amazon, Snapdeal and eBay. I hope you liked my review. If you did then please do share this piece of information with your friends and family. See you guys in my next post. Until then, be safe & keep smiling.

Hello, all! How are you doing? Today, I am going to talk about a facewash that has successfully made it to my morning skincare essentials. Today, I will be talking about the newly launched Medimix Ayurvedic Face Wash and how it is making my skincare routine easier.

If you follow me on my social medias (links on the right sidebar) then you already know that I have recently changed my skincare routine. You guys have seen my Snapchat stories where I showed you how I changed my morning skincare, but, I have now shifted the whole thing to night time. I’ll discuss the reason in another post.

When it comes to face washes for the morning, I always like to use something that is mild and has natural ingredients. In mornings, I need a product that cleanses my skin gently, provides hydration and removes the extra oiliness. When I received the Medimix Ayurvedic Face Wash, I was beyond happy because firstly, I have been a lover of their soaps since I was a kid, secondly, I love herbal facial cleansers and lastly, I needed something as this product to include in my morning skincare regime.

Medimix Ayurvedic Facewash Review| cherryontopblog.com

The Product- The product is actually a green coloured, foaming gel. The texture is exactly like a gel, a little less concentrated. You just need a pea-sized amount of the product to cleanse your entire face and neck. It lathers quite well when applied on a semi-wet face. Medimix Ayurvedic Facewash has a particular smell to it. It smells like herbs. The fragrance is very mild and goes away after washing off. As I said earlier, it is quite concentrated so, a little product goes a long way.

Medimix Ayurvedic Facewash Review| cherryontopblog.com

My Experience with Medimix Ayurvedic Face Wash

I use this face wash once a day, in the mornings. I like to wet my face first and then take a pea-size amount of the product and rub it between my palms, foam it up and then apply to the face. It instantly brings a healthy glow to my skin. I have been using it for more than a week and I can surely tell that it makes a difference. It does not cause breakouts, does not dry out my skin and provides an all day long freshness. I do not have acne, nor that I have an acne-prone skin, so I cannot tell you if it fights pimples or not. I need my morning skincare to be something extra. Medimix Ayurvedic Face Wash ensures I get that extra something.

It comes in handy when you are out and need a quick cleanup, but which will give the same effect as a full-fledged skincare routine. Like, if you are running late for work but do not want to skip your morning skincare regime, you would need this face wash. You would need to have something this the Medimix Ayurvedic Face Wash if you are always on the go. Skincare with this product is absolutely fuss-free and quick, with the benefits of 6 essential herbs infused in the product to give you the best from nature.

Overall, I liked the efficacy of the Medimix Ayurvedic Face Wash and I am looking forward to continuing using this in the future. I highly recommend this product to everyone because this is an infusion of both science and nature and is designed for every skin type. They also have an anti-tan variant of this, Medimix Ayurvedic Anti Tan Face Wash with Tanaka. These face washes are available at Amazon. Medimix Ayurvedic Facewash comes in two sizes-  50ml and 100ml.

Have you used Medimix Ayurvedic Face Wash yet?

Hi, guys. Happy Friday! Hope you had an amazing week. Today, I am going to talk about an Instagram store called Rutuz Craft Studio and the products available there. Also, there is a discount code for you guys in the end of this post. So, keep reading!

I am always on Instagram, posting pictures, liking others’ and exploring pages. One of my favourite things to do on Instagram is to find stores that sell unique items, from cute phone covers to jewellery. Recently I was contacted by this page called Rutuz Craft Studio to check out their feed and the jewellery they stock. They also asked me if I could review their products and let you guys know about them. How could I have said no to those pretty baubles! After knowing that they are totally hand-crafted. You guys know, I am obsessed with handcrafted things. I think they have the most powerful impact. After all, fashion is not only about wearing things, it’s also about feeling and loving what you are wearing.

I received these three things from them-

New Obsession- Hand-Crafted Jewellery by rutuzcraftstudio| cherryontopblog.com

The technique used to make this beautiful neckpiece and bracelet is called crochet technique. It is a mesh of copper wires holding the small, pretty glass pearls. The design might look flimsy at first but that is not the face at all! Both the neckpiece and the bracelet are really sturdy and they are also very flexible. They are supposed to be moulded to the neckline and wrist in order to get the perfect shape and flawless look. The earnings have a French back closure that is great as I tend to loose all my push-backs.

The best thing about these baubles is that they can be paired with almost any type of outfit- be it western, ethnic or fusion. You can wear it to style a classy off-shoulder dress or a saree. Crafted using a minimalist design, these baubles are great for using both daytime and night time and for almost every occasion.

New Obsession- Hand-Crafted Jewellery by rutuzcraftstudio| cherryontopblog.com

If you are not someone who loves to accessorise but there is some special occasion where you want to wear some jewellery then you can certainly try these out because they are very light-weight (you can’t believe until to hold them yourself, even the earrings feels heavier than the neckpiece), very minimalistic and really classy. Women of almost any age can wear these.

New Obsession- Hand-Crafted Jewellery by rutuzcraftstudio| cherryontopblog.com

Rutuz Craft Studio has many other handmade pieces of jewellery stocked at their Instagram store that you can check out. They all are handmade. From earrings to hand harnesses, there is a huge variety of stuff to choose from. I am sure you will like their collection.

Hey guys, hope you all are doing well. Today, I will be sharing my views on a range of products that I have been enjoying using for the past few weeks. It has been almost over a month since I started using the SkinCafe lip care products that they had sent me and now I think I am ready to share my final words. I know I took a long time but, that is how I work, I take too much time to review skincare products in order to understand the pros and the cons well and share a crystal-clear view on any product.

I am a lover of handmade skincare products. It gives me a feeling that I am doing something that is the best for my skin. When I received the package from SkinCafe, I was more than excited to try them out. I got three beautiful products from SkinCafe- Choco Chip and Cookies lip scrub, English Trifle lip butter and a Strawberry Shortcake tinted lip balm. Before starting with the review, let me tell you a few words about the brand.

SkinCafe.in is a brand that makes and sells handcrafted lip care products. They have a huge range of products across three categories i.e. lip scrubs, lip butter and tinted balms. All their products are named after some popular desserts. When you go to their website you would probably think that you have come to an online patisserie (check it out yourself, here). All their products are made after you place an order ensuring that you get the freshest products every time you place an order. I really liked this. Their products are cruelty-free, vegan and free from parabens. What more one could ask for? All the ingredients they use are listed on a separate page to avoid any vagueness and to ensure that there is always clarity between the manufacturer and the buyer.

Now that we know enough of the brand, let’s jump into the review-

Packaging- I am not going to lie, the packaging is the first thing that made me excited to try out the products. Each product comes in a cute little box with the illustration of a cupcake on each of them. It can give a tough competition to any luxury confectioner. As you open the box, you notice a small glass jar that contains the product. The packaging for all their products looks exactly the same. All of them come in glass jars with a plastic lid and labels. They all come in glass jars that are biodegradable but I did not find them the best things to travel with.

SkinCafe Choco Chip and Cookies Lip Scrub

SkinCafe Lip Care Range- Scrub, Butter & Tinted Balm Review| cherryontopblog.com

Price- Rs 950/- (9g)

Ingredients- Cocoa Nibs, Jojoba Oil

The SkinCafe Choco Chip and Cookies lip scrub is a product that works really well for chapped lips. There was a time when I was suffering from severely chapped lips even in summers. A regular scrubbing with this Choco Chip and Cookies has helped to reduce the dryness a lot. One can definitely notice softer and plumper lips right after using the scrub. I wet my lips first and then scoop out a little of the scrub with my fingers onto my palm and then massage it very gently onto the lips. If you ever feel that the scrub is dry, which happened to me at first, you can mix a drop of olive oil or coconut oil with the scrub and then apply it. The best thing about this Choco Chip and Cookies lip scrub is that it contains very fine scrubbing particles that do not feel harsh on the lips. More than that, this scrub smells divine, exactly like dark chocolate. It’s quite impossible to not lick it once. I tried that and believe me it does not taste like dark chocolate!

SkinCafe English Trifle Lip Butter

Price- Rs 850 (9g)

Ingredients- Candelilla Wax, Cocoa Butter, Sweet Almond Oil and Banana infusion.

I never found a lip balm that has the perfect consistency as butter in order to keep my lips hydrated for the longest time. It was only until I discovered this English Trifle lip butter from SkinCafe. This product does not only make my lips soft but also it keeps them moisturized for a long time. It stays on my lips for good 4-5 hours. Sadly, it does not survive a meal. This product has become my salve for the drier days. I would suggest you guys to try this at least once and you will know what I am trying to say. I never tried English Trifles so I don’t know what to expect from the fragrance of the product but, whatever it is, it smells good. This lip butter does not contain petroleum jelly.

SkinCafe Strawberry Shortcake

Price- Rs 900 (9g)

Ingredients- Beeswax, Mango Seed Butter, Avocado Oil and Strawberry infusion.

The Strawberry Shortcake Lip Tint Balm from SkinCafe is supposed to be a tinted lip balm as you can tell from the name. This balm has a buttery consistency, glides on the lips smoothly making them soft and supple and adding a subtle hint of pink colour to them. The colour is not as intense as I had imagined but it’s quite natural and perfect for an everyday purpose. This balm makes my lips really hydrated. It smells exactly like strawberries!

Overall, I liked the range of products from SkinCafe. The fact that they are purely vegan, cruelty-free and free from harsh chemicals like parabens, excites me a lot to keep using them forever. I would highly recommend their products. They are worth a try. A regular use of this range of products has changed my lip care regime completely. My lips do not feel dry anymore. The price of the product may be on the higher side but they are totally worth it. If you are sceptical about trying them for the first time and also hesitating to pay such a price for a new brand, then you can try their Lip Care Combos which would be a smart choice. Each these combos contain three products from each category (scrubs, butters and tinted balms). Each combo is a set of three products of 3g each and retails at Rs 900. You can buy SkinCafe products online from their official website.

India is a country that is famous for its cultural diversity. The unity in diversity is what makes India worth living and loving. Despite the diversity in culture, food habits, clothing, languages, what is common in all the Indians is their love for food. All Indians (let’s say most Indians) are born foodies and it is the mixed culture that is the reason behind the vast range of delicacies.

The only obstacle between the food and us is  the distance between states. I am a Bengali but sometimes all I want is to try sweets other than Roshogollas and Sandeshes. As an example, I always wanted to try the Pethas  and the Karachi halwa. I know there are a lot of recipes that could be tried but I wanted to feel the essence of an area through their food which is impossible when you try cooking from a recipe book. Food is not just to be tasted but to be perceived.
