You can achieve a natural look and make them blend seamlessly with your own hair. Whether its a straight or curly clip in hair extensions you can executive a perfect get up just mind these 4 hair extensions rule.
Find a perfect match to your hair colour
A simple rule that has a lot of common sense into it. If you aim for your extensions to look like your own then you’ll have to find the hair tone which closely matches your own. Although I must say a shade lighter or darker than your hair can also be a good enough match but the application will have to make it appear like a high or lowlights. Rule of thumb in looking for your right tone, use the ends of your hair as a gauge in looking for the right shade.
Always choose 100% Remy human hair
Nothing looks more natural than using human hair for your hair extensions from hair vendors. Not only does it look like your own hair it is the best hair quality than synthetic hair. Aside from looking natural, you can also enjoy styling it the way you normally do with your own hair. It would be desirable to choose straight extensions if you have straight hair and likewise with curly, or wavy hair.

Summer is at its fullest and it’s reaching up to 40°C every other day here where I live. In this condition, there is no other way to survive than having a shower twice or thrice a day. Every time you have a shower, you need to make sure you smell good because summer makes you all sweaty and stinky. A nice fragrant bath can make you feel a lot fresher. So, choosing good shower products is very important now. Today, I’ll be talking about two of my favourite products for a perfect summer shower routine from the brand Skinella– Skinella Mandarin Gel Body Wash and Skinella Pink Guava Body Polish Scrub.
My Summer Shower Routine
My summer shower routine includes only two steps- washing my body and scrubbing my body. I wash my hair thrice a week so that doesn’t include in the everyday shower routine. Thrice a week, I also use an intimate wash. Currently, I am loving the Everteen Intimate Hygiene Wash (read the review). Coming back to the two bath products, I use the Mandarin Gel Body Wah for squeaky clean my body and then the Pink Guava Body Polish Scrub to get rid of the dead cells.
I love using shower gels during summer. Shower gels are more fragrant than soaps and the fragrance lingers for quite some time. Also, shower gels are more hydrating in comparison to soaps. Because you cannot put oil or heavy creams on your body post-shower, it is clever to use a moisturizing body wash in the first place. You can then hydrate your body with a light lotion if you feel the need.
Skinella Mandarin Gel Body Wash has an exotic mandarin fragrance which freshens you up and makes your shower time pleasant. The citrusy smell is apt for summertime.
As I can already make out, the body wash comes in a gel form, a little product goes a long way. This product is suitable for all skin types. My body is dry most of the time and this product doesn’t dry it out and provides long-lasting hydration because of the essential oils in it.
No matter what the season is, I love scrubbing my body. It doesn’t only help me get rid of the dead cells but also makes me feel a lot fresher and my skin feels supple and smooth. Skinella Pink Guava Body Polish Scrub is one of my favourite body exfoliators because it has very finely milled scrubbing particles that they claim to be real oink guava. It works very gently yet effectively on my skin. I hate scrubs that feel like wet sand on the body. I don’t like exfoliating my body so much that it feels like ripping my skin off of my body. A mild scrub with tender particles works best for me.
I am quite disappointed with the fragrance. It sounds like an exotic aroma but in reality, it doesn’t. The smell is so faint that it almost smells like nothing.
This scrub doesn’t dry out your skin. You don’t feel the urge to apply body lotion right after the shower. This is hydrating to some extent.
Where to Buy Skinella Products-
Skinella products are exclusively available on Amazon.in. They are available in singles and also in kits and combos.
What I love about the brand Skinella, is that they provide the best results within budget. You don’t get to try different exotic variants in such a little price. Everyone can try their products from professionals to college students. Their products are 100% safe to use. I’ve also got three more products from their face care range. Feel free to let me know if you want me to review them as well.
Disclaimer- The products were kindly sent to me by the brand in return for an honest review.

It had been quite a while (read ages) since I last oiled my hair. The last time I had oiled my hair was when I was in school. Recently, I decided to give the Lalam Oil Plus Hair Oil a go because of two reasons. One, I was planning to include hair oiling to my hair care regime. Second, I have got sent a bottle of the hair oil by the brand right at that moment. It’s been a month since I started using this hair oil religiously and today I’ll share with you my experience.
Lalam Oil Plus hair oil comes in a transparent plastic bottle with a flip cap and the bottle comes inside a white box which has all the information printed on it. The packaging is nothing special but it is totally spill-proof, thus very travel-friendly.
Formulation & The Science Behind-
RootBioTec HO
Prevents hair loss, stops premature greying and promotes growth.
Based on an extract from a hairy root culture from basil, Root Phytotec HO helps reduce hair loss by inhibiting 5α reductase activity and by stimulating dermal papilla cells.
Hair loss affects both women and men. In 95 % of all cases of hair loss occurring exclusively on the head,
the cause is an increased sensitivity of the hair follicles
to the androgenic hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Androgenic alopecia, which is the name of the condition, is hereditary, permanent and continues as one gets older.
Root Phytotec – a Novel Technique developed to produce Cosmetic Actives
For the production of Root Phytotec HO, Mibelle Biochemistry developed a novel sustainable technique to produce high amounts of the active compounds of basil in bioreactors.
The “hairy roots” technology is a type of plant tissue culture that is used to produce high quality, phytogenic compounds of pharmaceutical value.
Long lasting benefits of Root Phytotec
• Prevents hair loss
• For fuller hair
• Stimulates hair papilla cells
• Rejuvenates scalp
My Experience with Lalam Oil Plus Hair Oil
My scalp is always very oily. That is the reason why I wash my hair more often than I should. It tends to trip off the natural oils from my scalp. So, it was necessary for me to oil my hair at least twice to stop my hair from getting dry. I always thought, if I oil my hair it will make it worse since my scalp is already very oily. But, to my surprise, it did nothing of that sort.
I use this oil thrice a week to avoid any extra oiliness in my hair but the company says the best results will show up if you use this oil every day. If you are like me, use it thrice a week and you will get a good result too. It has arrested my hair fall for about 60%.
The best thing about this oil is that it is non-sticky and does not cause any irritation to my scalp or facial skin. A great tip on hair-oiling for you would be- always apply hair oil on a clean scalp. Shampoo your hair first and then apply the hair oil the next day. It will allow the oil to come in contact with your scalp and provide nourishment.
When I massage my scalp with this oil, my hair looks and feels more manageable than ever after I wash my hair. It has a mild fragrance of herbs, mostly methi. The smell lingers for long even after a couple of washes.

‘Take care of the body. It’s the only place you have to live’- this simple little quote by Jim Rohn continues to hold its own decades after it was said. Maintaining a sound body is indeed something whose importance can’t be overstated. At the same time, it can be a gruelling task which demands the perfect workout outfits. So, this summer, just pull your hair into a bun, get into the sporty groove and hit the gym looking like a million dollars. Here are five of the most perfect outfits for exercise that speak to both comfort & style:
Track-pants & T-shirts
Kick up your cardio in track-pants and breezy crop t-shirts. Go for fabrics that are soft on the skin, non-irritable, breathable, and versatile such as bamboo pulp, polyester, nylon, polypropylene, and spandex among others. The reason for using these lightweight fabrics is that they wick away sweat. Make working out a fun affair by choosing striking colours such as fluorescent pink, electric blue, and deep plum. Printed track-pants look great with solid T-shirts and vice-versa. Set a target & challenge yourself every day!
Playsuits
Playsuits are a type of jumpsuits for women which can be worn for a simple yet stylish look during workout sessions. Go for attractive and unique styles of workout playsuits such as open back cross strap jumpsuits, sleeveless backless bandage cut-out mesh playsuits, and catsuit cosplay playsuits. These are great outfits for your treadmill work-out and weight training sessions. Also, you can go for ems training suits to workout better.
Tube Tops & Shorts
Exercising in unusual, chic clothes not only boosts your confidence but also gives you a chance to flaunt your hard-earned figure with aplomb. Tube tops and shorts are a distinctly edgy combination, be it for regular gym workout or yoga. Good-looking and comfortable, this sartorial duo is sure to lend oodles of oomph to the wearer’s look. Perform, feel and look great with tube tops in vivid colours and high-rise shorts that will make you stand out of the crowd.
Kurta and Tights
For those with a more restrained sense of style, and those who do not like to really show off their body, the best option is to don a kurta and pair of leggings or jeggings. While the gym or jogging track may not be a fashion show or fancy get-together, you shouldn’t let clothing consciousness come your way. When you go to the gym or perform yoga, it’s best to wear kurtas for women that come in plain as well as printed designs. Soft, three-quarter sleeve kurtas made of cotton and lycra leggings will give you plenty of comfort, flexibility, and inhibited elegance while exercising.
Tank Tops and Capris
Burn up the sweat with trendy tank tops and capris. The best thing about this outfit is that it is comfortable and super-stylish at the same time. Just make sure that the tank top has a snug fit and the capris are loose, in order to give your body the perfect balance of attractiveness and comfort as extremely tight clothes, while appearing stylish, are considered unhealthy for the body (particularly while exercising).
The best workout clothes are those that conceal your flaws while highlighting your assets. Make fitness a habit with these chic workout ensembles and inspire others to do the same!

Hello, everyone! Welcome back to Cherry On Top. In summers, the main concern for us ladies is what to wear, be it clothes or footwear. As far as my choices are concerned, I like to wear anything flowy and easy-breezy and for footwear, I like to wear my flip-flops only. Being a blogger (or even any working person), you don’t really have that luxury to wear your slippers. You have meetings, events, shoots and what not and you cannot wear a pair of slippers everywhere! So, I thought I should share a Guide to Day to Night Footwears for Summer. All the shoes shown in this post are from FSJ Shoes, an American online portal dedicated to only women’s footwear.
FSJ or Funny She Jill Shoes is a shoe brand, synchronized with international fashion, taking super fashion design as well as an attractive price. FSJ means extremely ‘Innovation’ or ‘Adventurous’, which symbolizes the modern women’s life characteristics of pursuit for fashion and vitality. We aim to help women realize their dream of fashion and pursuit of quality.

Day to Night Summer Footwear Guide
Office-
You got to be looking sophisticated on work yet you need comfort as you’ll be spending hours there. These black formal heels are great for formal wear plus, the kitten heels will look after the comfort factor.
Or, if you are more of a flat lover, then you can go with these stylish black loafers with a pointy tip. These look so classy and comfortable!
Brunch-
In summers, it’s quite obvious that you will get invited to a lot of brunch parties with family or friends or colleagues. These pretty suede numbers will go really well with a breezy summer day dress and will complement anything in pastel. Keeping the season in mind, I have chosen one pastel pink and a blush shade that I thought would be apt of the day time.
Music Festival-
Summer has officially arrived and that means there would be a lot of music fests happening around you. Being fun, casual and funky is what music festivals are all about. Here are my picks for fun and colourful footwear for music festivals that would make you stand out in the crowd!

There is nothing like a stunning pair of stilettoes for a date night. It goes perfectly with an LBD or a jumpsuit. Check these out-

Hello, all! This is probably the first time I am talking about intimate hygiene on my blog. I have done so many skincare and cosmetics review but this time I thought I should share something that has been a taboo for years. In 2019, still, there are women who shy away from talking about feminine issues like unpleasant vaginal odour or irritation in the pubic area and believe me that’s doing more harm than good! Today, I will be reviewing the Everteen Intimate Hygiene Wash and tell you why you should include this in your daily feminine hygiene routine.
Everteen Natural Intimate Wash is scientifically designed to promote the body’s natural vaginal balance and maintain complete vaginal hygiene. It prevents unpleasant and unnatural odours, protects the natural pH balance of the vagina, relieves vaginal itching & burning.
Prevent unpleasant and unnatural odours: Unpleasant or bad smell from the vagina can be very embarrassing for you so much so that it may affect your intimacy with your partner. This fishy or foul smell can be frustrating sometime as it may leave you feeling unclean and gross as if everybody can smell it. Vaginal odour can be caused by a host of issues like pH balance disruptions or overgrowth of micro-organisms such as anaerobic bacteria or yeast. Everteen with the cleansing properties of its natural ingredients prevents unpleasant and unnatural vaginal odours so that you stay fresh and confidently clean all day.
Protect the natural pH balance of vagina: A normal vaginal pH balance of 3.5 to 4.5 is important for maintaining good vaginal hygiene. At this optimum pH level, your vagina contains a balance of necessary bacteria and some yeast cells. If the balance of bacteria is disturbed, this can lead to infection and inflammation resulting in itching, irritation and abnormal discharge. Everteen with the revitalizing properties helps in maintaining the optimum level of pH balance of your vagina.
Relieve vaginal itching & burning: Itching & irritation in an area as sensitive as vagina can be very uncomfortable & painful and it can affect your quality of life. Vaginal itching occurs when delicate vaginal tissues become sore, dry or itchy that is often caused by irritating substances, vaginal infections, or menopause. Everteen with its antibacterial and antifungal properties helps in preventing the infection and give you relief from consistent itching or burning in the vaginal area.
Ingredients of Everteen Natural Intimate Wash
The natural ingredients of Everteen have antibacterial and antifungal properties which help in reducing the infection and hence prevent vaginal odour and vaginal itching.
Ficus Glomerata:
Ficus glomerata is mentioned in all ancient scriptures of Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani and Homoeopathy as a remedy for the vaginal disorder. The herb possesses potent inhibitory activity for more than six species of fungi (cause fungal infection) and antimicrobial properties which inhibits the growth of E-coli bacteria.
Butea Frondosa:
Also, know as Palash covers a broad spectrum of antibacterial and antifungal activity
Sphatika:
Know as alum, constrict blood vessels & delivers soothing and freshening effect.
Aloe Vera:
Promotes cell regeneration with anti-inflammatory & moisturizing actions.
My Experience with Everteen Intimate Hygiene Wash
I have been using this product since I received it and I can only say that you must use it and see it for yourself. I am really impressed by the quality of the product for the price it retails for.
The flip-open cap ensures that the product stays untouched and hygienic. A little product goes a long way. A couple of drops lathers pretty well. A bottle would last you for 3-4 months (or more) if you use it every other day.
The fragrance of the product is very mild and fresh.
It thoroughly cleanses your lady parts, leaving a long-lasting fresh feel throughout the day.
The mild soap formula doesn’t cause irritation and prevents bad odours.
Its anti-bacterial and anti-fungal formulation, Everteen Intimate Hygiene Wash, prevents any type of vaginal infection and treats constant itching and burning sensation.
Overall, I think this is a decent product considering the price tag. It is absolutely safe to use. You must check it out yourself to know the benefits.

We are all pressed for time these days so shopping online makes our lives much easier. You can get virtually anything delivered to your door including jewellery. Whether you are treating yourself or getting someone a gift, you can find endless options online. You may even find better prices than those in your local stores. The only caveat is that you need to be careful. The best online jewellery store is not necessarily the most expensive but the one which offers value for money and excellent customer service.
Here are some of the rules you should follow when buying jewellery on the web.
1. Do Your Research
You will find an overwhelming number of options at varying price points and levels of quality. However, you won’t be able to see the piece in person to touch it. You will have to rely in large part on the retailer’s description. Once you find a piece you like, read up on some of the terms used to describe it. Look to a reputable source for information so you understand exactly what you should be getting. It’s easy to be impulsive when shopping online but you should take a step back and do your due diligence.
2. Look at the Pictures Closely
A single picture will grab your attention, but you need to look at all the available images before you hand over your credit card details. Don’t just look at one angle and decide to spend your hard-earned cash. In fact, you can even ask the seller to send you additional images if you need to see an angle that isn’t shown on the site. Examine the jewellery for damage or imperfections as well as maker’s marks and artist signatures.
3. Get Details on the Seller
You need to ensure you are buying from a reputable source. This is especially important if you are buying a very expensive item. Look at how long the retailer has been in business and whether they have good reviews. Check with agencies like the Better Business Bureau to see if there are any open complaints against the company. Also, take note of how the seller responds to your queries and whether they display professionalism. If you’re purchasing a piece of jewellery that doesn’t have a certification, the seller’s reputation is the only thing you have to go on.
4. Ask for Proof of Authenticity and Check the Return Policy
You need to ensure the jewellery you’re ordering is authentic. If you’re buying a 24-karat gold ring or a 925-sterling silver necklace, ask for the relevant documentation. If there are diamonds or rubies involved, get the details on them as well so you know exactly what you’re supposed to get. You should also find out about the store’s return policy in case you get the wrong product or it’s defective.
5. Make Sure the Shipment is Insured
You don’t expect your shipment to get lost, but it could happen. It could also get damaged. If you’ve ordered an engagement ring or another special piece for a loved one, this is the last thing you want to occur. Ensure the seller offers protection against such occurrences so you have peace of mind.
Buying jewellery online is about more than just getting the best price, although you need to know the market value of any piece you want to purchase. Take the time to research the type of jewellery you’re eyeing and get the scoop on the retailer before you commit. Follow these rules and you won’t regret your purchase.

Hello, everyone! I am back with yet another review. Today, I am going to review and swatch all three shades of the brand new Nivea Coloron Lip Crayons. Recently, Nivea has released its first affordable lip crayons range in India and they sent the entire collection that comprises of three shades of lip crayons to me to review and share with you guys. So, let’s start with the review-
Price- ₹299 for 3g
Description-
The care of Nivea lip balm now with high colour coverage in the New Nivea Coloron Lip Crayons!
Get the perfect look with the new and unique formula enriched with natural oils. Delivering a long lasting colour effect, this lip balm will create the perfect balance of a soft touch and satin finish. Enjoy soft kissable lips wherever you are! This lip balm glides on evenly and easily for that flawless look with a creamy texture. #LoveYourLips!
Features-
Long-lasting moisture intense colour lip balm.
Unique moisturising formula instantly melts onto your lips and provides long-lasting moisture to give you soft kissable lips all day.
Creamy formula with natural oils and pro-vitamin E gives you a pleasant application.
Re-apply and layer it for maximum colour payoff.
They have 3 pretty, everyday shades in this range- Hot Pink, Pop Red and Coral Crush.
Nivea Coloron Lip Crayon Hot Pink-
Hot Pink is a bright fuschia pink with cool undertones that suits most Indian skin tones. The colour gives you a subtle hint of pink when applied to the lips so it is not an on-the-face hot pink unlike the name of this shade.
Coral Crush is again a bright shade of coral/orange. I am not very fond of coral lip shades but the subtleness of this shade makes it one of my favourite everyday summer colour!
Nivea Coloron Lip Crayons come in regular plastic lip crayon packaging. It is a fat, twist-up pencil with a transparent lid. Although the tip of the crayon still remains outside even after twisting the crayon down till the end which can damage the tip if you are inattentive while putting the lid on. What I liked about their packaging is that each crayon is colour-coded and also the transparent lids make it easier for you to pick your desired colour in a hurry.
My Experience with Nivea Coloron Lip Crayons-
If you are following me for a long time you’d know that I am obsessed with lip balms. I hate the feeling of chapped lips and I cannot step out of the house without moisturizing my lips. For daily use, I prefer tinted lip balms that protect my lips also give me some sort of colour to the lips. I cannot leave my house in bare lips. Mostly, I am into lipsticks but sometimes you just want to ditch the lipsticks and go for something natural-looking.
When I received the Nivea Coloron Lip Crayons, I was beyond happy because I found what I was looking for quite some time now. These crayons are insanely pigmented and oh-so hydrating. The longevity of these crayons is not very bad considering they are very soft and sheeny. The texture of these crayons is very smooth and creamy so that they don’t accentuate the creases on your lips. The crayons literally glide on your lips. You can lessen the shine by dabbing a tissue onto your lips or by applying some translucent powder on top. I like them as they are. These are also transferable. The colour fades to the edges after a meal, but they provide long-lasting moisture. Even after the colour is gone, your lips are hydrated. You can always reapply these whenever necessary.
Overall, these tinted lip balms are a must-try if you are looking for something like these within budget. I am very happy with the shades and the colour payoff. The moisture they provide is very satisfying.

Being a beauty blogger, I am always in search of new products to try out. For me, skincare has always been way more essential than makeup. I might now pick up the hottest lipstick or highlighter, but I’m always eager to explore new skincare launches. So, when I saw Nykaa came up with its own Korean sheet masks- Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask with some desi ingredients, I cannot hold my excitement. There was a two-for-two offer going on pre-ordering the sheets, so I got four of them. I am going to review the Gooseberry + Papaya for Nourished + Brightened Skin sheet mask today.
Being a beauty blogger, I am always looking for new skincare and makeup products to try and review on my blog for my readers. Recently, it has been 80% skincare and 20% makeup which I am really enjoying because as they say, the more flawless the canvas the prettier the painting (Ahem, I just invented it). Anyway, recently I saw some very interesting stuff launched by Nykaa. They launched their very own Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Masks. The sheet masks weren’t the interesting part but their desi ingredients were. I love how they have merged India and Korea in such a fancy way. All the ingredients used in these sheet masks are 100% originated from India and made to target specific skin concerns. Today, I am reviewing two of their 11 variants- Gooseberry+Papaya and Pear+Hyaluronic Acid
Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask range is powered with two hero ingredients in each mask. They have launched a collection of total 11 sheet masks focusing on Indian skin and their problems.
Product Description
“Carefully chosen, we bring you 11 variants that are specially made to target all your skin concerns. Tucked away in our grandma’s diaries, these ingredients are humble yet potent. Passed on from generations to generations, they have never ceased to mark their vitality even in the modern world. Now, we have brought to you the most-precious beauty secrets in the form of our Nykaa Skin Secrets sheet masks.”
Why Nykaa Skin Secrets sheet mask?
Dual ingredients for dual benefits.
Exquisite Indian origin ingredients for maximum benefits.
Each variant caters directly to all targeted skin concerns.
Benefit-driven to ease the consumer purchase.
How to Use-
Unfold and lay over on clean and toned skin. Relax for 10-15 minutes. Remove the mask and gently pat the excess serum onto your skin, until fully absorbed. Massage for good blood circulation that results in a healthy glow.
My Experience with Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask Range-
Now, let me tell you what I honestly feel about this particular range of sheet masks.
Packaging- The packaging is very nicely and meticulously done. An image of the key ingredients of the corresponding masks is printed on the packaging itself. Also, the name of the ingredients and the effects of the mask is also written boldly on the pack. So, the user is completely aware of what they are putting on their face and there is no room for confusions.
Fitting- The fitting of these sheets masks is what makes it my favourite. The holes are made keeping Indian face shapes in mind. A difficulty that I face with most of the Korean sheet masks is that the holes for the eyes are not wide enough to fit me. But Nykaa’s sheet masks have bigger eye holes so that they fit people with bigger eyes.
Consistency of the Serum/Essence- I have never used a sheet mask before that doesn’t come with a thick, hard-to-absorb serum/essence. My experience with Nykaa Sheet Masks was outstanding because the Nykaa face sheet masks are soaked in a serum that is very lightweight and absorbs quickly into the skin. The essence does not make my skin oily, it just adds the right amount of moisture.
The 11 variants of the Nykaa Face Sheet Masks are-
I bought 4 from the list- #1, #7, #9 and #11. I will review #1 Gooseberry + PapayaFace Sheet Mask and #9 Pearl + Hyaluronic Acid Sheet Mask today.
Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask Review- Gooseberry+Papaya
Unmask for a Nourished and Brightened Skin.
Benefits of Gooseberry- Gooseberry, popularly known as Amla in India, removes tan and lightens blemishes and acne scars. Benefits of Papaya- Provides three-layer deep skin nourishment and a long-lasting glow.
From my childhood, I have been told numerous benefits of natural ingredients by my mother. She is all about DIYs. I remember she used to make a papaya mask for face and an amla concoction for the hair. I have seen papaya doing wonders for my face. It adds a healthy, natural glow to your face instantly.
I think this particular mask is very average when it comes to the results. I have not seen any visible or drastic change in my skin except for it made it really nourished and clean in a way. I have not seen any of my spots getting faded or skin clarity. Maybe with regular use, it can work on that front.
Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask Review- Pearl+Hyaluronic Acid-
Unmask for a Firm and Brightened skin.
Benefits of Pearl- Reduces melanin production to give fairer radiant skin.
Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid- Holds in hydration to increase the elasticity giving a firmer and younger-looking skin.
Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask Pearl+Hyaluronic Acid does what it claims. I could feel my skin a bit firmer after the use. It might not make you fairer (because you know that’s not possible!) but definitely would brighten up your face a lot. The serum penetrates into the skin very quickly giving it the proper amount of hydration. This mask is a great option to get an instant pick-me-up before any party or occasion.
Overall, I loved both the masks for the instant glow that they provide. These masks are nothing extraordinary so don’t expect them to completely change your skincare game. These are only for ₹100 thus you can definitely give these a shot. There is a ‘buy 5 get 3 free‘ offer going on on these right now. So, it could be a great opportunity to stock them up or give them a try.
