Daytime Makeup for Fall| Day-2 #fallwithcherryontopblog

Hey guys, thanks for coming to the second day of the Fall Party. Today, I am going to share a daytime makeup look with you all which is perfect for fall/autumn. This makeup look is perfect for the days you want to look a bit more special without any hassle. This quick and simple everyday makeup look will be perfect for autumn and winter days. So, let’s get into the details now-

1. Face- As I do not like foundations in daytime, I opted for my Lakme CC Cream. I applied my MeMeMe Concealer on the problem areas like under the eyes, around my nose and mouth. I used my Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer over the concealer and a little bit down the bridge of my nose, on my forehead and chin to highlight those areas. Then, I set my under-eye area with the Lotree Rosa Davurica Powder Pact that I received in my Wishbox Cosmic Bloom (Read Here) and used my Lakme 9 to 5 Flawless Matte Complexion Compact for the rest of my face and neck.

For blush, I used my NYX powder blush in Espresso. I did a little bit of contouring with the Sleek Face Contour Kit. I am still learning the art of contouring, so, please pardon me for any mistake.

2. Eyes- First of all, I primed my eyes with the ELF Eyelid Primer. The I applied the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk to the entire eyelid up to the crease. Then I took some burnt orange type of shade from (I am very bad at describing colours) my BH Cosmetics Day & Night palette and swiped it across my crease, taking it slightly up towards the brow bone. Then, I took a matte beige shade from the same palette and applied it to the entire eyelid with a patting motion (this gives the maximum coverage and pigmentation). I blended the two colours very well to eliminate any harsh line. I also applied some matte brown eye shadow along the lower lash line to intensify the look.

I lined my upper lash line with the Maybelline The Colossal Liquid Liner creating a wing at the end. For mascara, I opted for the Maybelline Hyper Curl mascara.

3. Lips- For the lips, I chose a bright reddish colour to brighten up the face and at the same time keeping it wearable. I have the Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy Sculpting lipstick in Envious. I got the sample with my Sephora purchase (Read Here).

That’s all, guys! I hope you liked the post. I kept the look pretty simple. It is easy and really quick! So, you can try this out even if you are not a pro. With this post, I wrap the the second day of the Fall Party. Share the posts as much as you can to make this a hit! See you tomorrow with a new post. Till then, be safe & keep smiling!

Ethnic and Off-beat| OOTD

Hello all, how are you doing? I can’t believe September is about to bid goodbye and October is not too far away. I can’t suppress my excitement as Durga Puja starts on October 19th!! Gosh, one more year passed! Anyways, today’s post is going to be an OOTD post. A few weeks ago, we spontaneously planned for a day-out with our friends. This was an impromptu OOTD so excuse me for the quality of photos. I brought the usual point and shoot camera with me. The background and lighting aren’t as good as they should have been as the trip was not meant for photography. Anyhoo, I succeeded in choosing some good quality pictures for this post as I eagerly wanted to share the outfit with you guys.

So, without further ado, let’s jump into the post.

You guys might know that I am not an ‘ethnics’ person. I feel extremely comfortable in my jeans or chinos and oversized blouses. I rarely choose to wear ethnic outfits only if there is any traditional function or wedding. This is the reason I merely have 4-5 traditional outfits. If I ever choose to wear an ethnic attire, I make sure that it is not heavy, bland and most importantly conventional.

The Kurti that I am wearing is my favourite at this moment because it is very lightweight, it has 3/4 sleeves and it has a high-low cut which is just what I need in my ethnics- cool, classy, casual! The material is Poly Crepe which is not breathable yet comfortable.

I wore these white and gold sandals which I think complemented the ‘ethnic-ness‘ of the outfit.

I didn’t accessorized much as it was very hot and humid and of course I had no plans of clicking for the blog. I wore a pair of beautiful golden earrings from Gotta Go Gorgeous.

My sling bag is from Caprese. I love the faux leather material. The black and gold combo gives it a oomph. I love slings bags so much and this one is my current favourite!

~Outfit Details~

Kurti- Flipkart

Leggings- Local store

Sandals- Cleo by Khadim’s

Sling Bag- Caprese

That’s all about this post. Hope you like my outfit. Please let me know in the comments. I will come back with a new post soon. Till then, be happy & keep smiling!

Parineeti Chopra Hots up The Juice| Story

Parineeti Chopra flashes her curves! Looks hotter than ever on the Juice Cover

Welcome the new Parineeti Chopra! Looking hotter than ever, the actress sizzles on the Juice coverpage! So, what makes her fit? How this actress is setting the pages of this fashion magazine on fire? Let’s decode the sultry avatar of the ‘Ishaqzaade’ actress.

Parineeti Chopra Sizzles on the Juice Magazine Cover| Cherry On Top Blog

What’s there that is making this actress look hot? Being at the receiving end of flak, Parineeti Chopra admits she was fat. As she struggled with her yo-yoing weight, she even abhorred being on the list of worst-dressed Bollywood celebs as access to best of designer clothes wasn’t for her. All she tried in terms of fashion was to hide her plumpness with clothes.

“Look, let’s admit it, I was fat,” says Parineeti. The actress continues, “It’s true. For a while I was on every ‘Worst Dressed’ list out there. I was fat and I would not get access to the best of clothes. I’d constantly be covering up and not wearing clothes that were right for my body.” The actress took some time to learn how to style herself and realized that she needs to work out for a “better body”.

Off the limelight for almost a year now, the actress was enjoying the phase and utilized this time to achieve a fitter self. Now what you see on the cover is all her hard work. Dressed to kill in black fringed camisole by Mango and ripped denim shorts by Only, Parineeti sauces up the Juice cover. The beauty bones are prominent, and she has gone from flabbier to fitter. The hour-glass figure suits her, and she got curves to flaunt.

The reason behind this new ‘her’ is extensive training in kalarippayattu. The martial art from Kerala is helping the actress to get toned, but she is also following a strict diet regimen. A sculpted midriff indeed tells the tale of her patience and persistence.

In a candid tete-a-tete with the Juice magazine the actress talks about everything under the sun. From thinking films are a waste of time to being bitten by the acting bug, the actress has talked her heart out. Shot by ace fashion photographer Prasad Naik, she is styled by Daniel Franklin. Here is Juice September cover girl fit and fabulous like never before.

Nikhil Thampi– Nikhil Thampi succeeded in wooing the audience as usual with his classy and elegant designs. He described his collection, Alchemy, to be an ‘amalgamation of modern and mythical India’. His clothes had the aspects of two sides of India, one modern and another classics. From bold colours to neutrals, his design was truly appropriate for a new-edge bride. I loved his collection!

Urvashi Kaur– I loved the pastels and monochromatic hues and simplistic designs by her. She proves that fashion is not always the glitz and glamour.

Anushree Reddy– Anushree Reddy’s show was full of bridal inspired clothing. From pastels to florals and sequin works, it was a delight to my eyes.

Gaurav Gupta– This post will be incomplete without the mention of a magnificent Grand Finale by Gaurav Gupta, who transformed the ramp into a fairy tale. I have been reading different posts on social medias and saw some pictures and it was a delight to my eyes. This is a true example where fantasy met fashion and elegance met excellence. This was a perfect closing for this year’s Lakme Fashion Week. The bold and beautiful, Kareena Kapoor Khan walked the ramp for him.

I hope you liked this post. Don’t forget to tell me which collection you loved the most. Be safe & keep smiling!

Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Oil-in-Cream| Review, Usage, Price

Hi all, I hope you all are doing great. I can’t believe it’s already September, that means a few more weeks to Durga Puja! If you follow me on Facebook then you might know that I was about to review two products last week, but due to some reasons (read Internet Issues) it got delayed. Today’s review is one of the them. Today, I am going to review a hair care product by Garnier Fructis that was launched long ago. It’s the Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Oil-in-Cream. I know I am too late to review this but better late than never, right?

Let’s get into the review-

Price- Rs 60 for 100g| Rs 100 for 200g

The Oil-in-Cream by Garnier Fructis was launched a few months ago along with a shampoo and conditioner duo from the same range. I have reviewed the Triple Nutrition Shampoo and Conditioner here.

Packaging- Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Oil-in-Cream comes in a yellow, plastic tube packaging with a flip open cap.

Product- Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Oil-in-Cream is a white, cream like product. Despite being a cream is does not feel heavy on your hair as the consistency is more like a lotion than a thick cream. It’s a lightweight, non-greasy nice-smelling product.

My thoughts- First of all, let me tell you all that my hair is not as healthy as it seems in photos. In real life, it is frizzy, unruly and thin. The first time I used this product I was completely overwhelmed by the fact that it actually made my hair shiny, soft and more manageable. I won’t be exaggerating if I say that this product is my ‘deep-conditioning treatment in a bottle‘. This product can be used in three ways-

As an overnight treatment, by massaging the product into your hair and scalp for 1-2 minutes and leaving it overnight.
As an oil, by massaging it into your scalp for 1-2 minutes, just before washing your hair.
As a leave-in conditioner, by applying it onto you hair lengths after treating your hair shampoo and conditioner.

However, I have used only the 2nd and 3rd way. As my scalp is very oily, I have skipped the overnight use. Overnight oil treatments always freaks me out as whenever I try it I wake up like an oily mess. After using my shampoo and conditioner, I take a coin sized amount of product onto my palm and then I run my fingers through the lengths of my hair. I love applying it as a leave-in conditioner because I feel in this way it works best for my hair.

Another thing I loved about this product is its soothing fragrance. If you are reading my blog for a long time you would probably know how keen I am about nice fragrances. I don’t like strong fragrances but I definitely like soothing, sensuous ones. This product has a very mild, soothing fragrance that I would want in every hair product I own. The fragrance lasts for a long period of time, leaving your hair feeling fresh for a long time.

Next and the most important thing that I liked about the Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Oil-in-Cream is that it does not make my scalp or hair look oily or limp. It does not weigh my hair down. It does not take away the volume provided by the prior hair wash. It does not cause hair fall. It works as a hair oil without feeling like a hair oil. Using it after hair wash makes a huge difference in my hair. I have noticed a very smooth, healthy-looking, manageable hair after using this product.

I recommend Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Oil-in-Cream to everyone who suffers from dull or frizzy hair. Even if you do not have any hair problem you can still try this amazing product. Have anyone of you tried this product yet? Share your experiences in the comments below. I would love to know how it worked for you. The next review post will be up very soon. Till then be safe & keep smiling!

Guide to Ultimate Glowing Skin

Skin is the canvas where the traces of years, experience, mistreatment, neglecting, bad diet and other influences are reflected. That’s why it demands special care and attention. Attaining desired radiant glow is never easy, but it’s not impossible. Skin radiance comes from both inside and outside.

To achieve the best and lasting results, you’ll have to change some habits from the roots, build skincare routine and, if needed, change your nutrition. Don’t worry, there is still time to do that, start with the new practice this guideline will recommend first thing in the morning and don’t give up. You’ll be amazed with the results.

Glowing inside out

As mentioned above, healthy diet makes half of smooth and youthful skin. By eating certain foods, you can achieve perhaps even better results than with skincare products.

Nutrient that are rich with omega-3 fatty acids supply your skin with oils that can reduce inflammation and thus prevent acne, redness and scaly skin. Trout, salmon and herring are the best fishes for the job.

Foods with Vitamin C (kiwi, lemon, orange, tomato) stimulates collagen production and protects skin against wrinkles. The extra treat is dark chocolate which is helping your skin stay soft and hydrated. Speaking of hydration, it is crucial that you drink at least 2 liters of water (non-carbonated) per day, and sometimes even more.

Skincare routine

Developing healthy skincare routine is one of the most important steps to take to achieve wanted results. This means you need to wash your face regularly, especially before going to bed. Use makeup remover, gentle soap and only then rinse with water. Remove excess oil with toner and then apply moisturizer.

Make it a habit to exfoliate once a week in order to remove excess skin cells. You can make your own exfoliator or buy trusted product in a store. To keep your skin youthful, protect it from the sun, by applying sunscreen every time you are going outside.

Finishing touches

If you are following these steps you already have glowing skin which needs just a bit more shine. For that, you can use woman’s most trusted tool – makeup.

Start the beautifying process with a primer to create a hydrated and smooth surface. Next, even out the tan with foundation (choose it based on your tan and skin type). If needed, cover spots (acne, redness) with concealer. Lock it all in with powder and accentuate cheekbones with blush or bronzer. Add an extra touch with nude or peach shade lip gloss. The results will be astonishing!

Soft pencil or eyeliner can be very effective solution if you want to highlight your eyes. You can apply the standard one or opt foreyeliner tattoo. However, for evening plans, you’ll need to try a little harder to make your skin glow and cheekbones pop, perhaps do some highlighting and contouring, and you are just few strokes of a makeup brush away from the Hollywood diva look.

There is no reason to have dull and dry skin if you can make it radiant. Where filet of salmon can’t help and exfoliating is just scratching the surface, some primer, foundation and blush will do the trick.

Best Dog Products India August 15, 2015

Unboxing Zorro’s First Wagbox

Hi all, let me first wish you a very happy Independence Day. I hope you all are doing good. Today’s post is going to be a little different from the usual beauty and fashion I usually do. This is going to be an ‘unboxing’ of a monthly subscription box for our furry babies. This box is called Wag Box and it is by Heads Up For Tails. How apt the name is! Your dogs must wag seeing the goodies inside.

If you are following me on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter, you might know that I got a new puppy and I am so excited about it! His name is Zorro. He is a 8-weeks-old yellow Labrador Retriever puppy. My first dog passed away about two years back. I decided not to have any pet after him, but I couldn’t find any peace without having a dog around me (Only dog-lovers will understand!). Recently, I was very stressed and shattered due to a tragedy in my life (don’t feel like discussing it). That’s the moment when I finally decided to get a pup. The strange thing is that I got a mail from Heads Up For Tails team about reviewing their services the day I decided to get a dog. The coincidence was really surprising!

Heads Up For Tails has a website as well as a store located at Select City Walk, Saket, Delhi. They have a great variety of pet supplies to offer. From bowls to beds they have pretty much everything you will need if you have pets. Basically, they have goodies for dogs and cats (especially dogs). If you have dogs, Heads Up For Tails is your ultimate destination to shop for your pooch. They have a nice collection of clothes, shoes and other accessories like leashes, collars, clips and bow-ties. They also offer quality food, toys and wellness items like shampoos, conditioners, combs, brushes and many more! Don’t worry if you don’t have a dog. If you had a pet or if you simply are a pet-lover, you can check out their merchandise section for pet-lovers. They have cute mugs, notebooks and other stuff there for you.

What is a Wag Box?

A Wag Box is a monthly subscription box full of wag-worthy goodies for your pet. They have three different types of subscription packages- 1 month, 6 months and 12 months. The 1-month subscription (which I opted for, costs Rs 1999/-). They send some full-sized products in the box (my box had 7 products in it). It is a LOT compared to the amount you pay for it. At the time of subscribing, you have to fill out a form with the details of your pet so you can get a box customized according to your pet’s need.

Now let’s dig into Zorro’s first Wag Box-

This is the Yummy in My Tummy Banana & Oats Premium Dog Cookies. The cookies are made of human-grade ingredients. Zorro loves these a lot.

The Urine Free spray has been a saviour for me. Zorro is in his potty/toilet training phase but he is learning very slowly. Sometimes he behaves like a gentleman and pees in the bathroom but sometimes he just becomes a rebel. This stuff eliminates any kind of smell or stain. This is a must have for anyone who is struggling like me.

This collar and the bow-tie is the cutest thing in the box. Though I haven’t put anything on his neck yet but I will definitely use them as he grows up a little bit.

How cute this the paw and bone printed bowl! Zorro needed something to drink water from and here it is!

I haven’t given this to Zorro otherwise he will chew it up and swallow some of the pages. I am using it to keep record of his growth, his naughtiness, the new things he learn etc.

This is his most favourite toy and believe me it doesn’t look like this anymore!

This is it for the post guys. I hope you liked Zorro and his first Wag Box. I am really happy so see how meticulously they added the best products for my pup. I also loved how the box looks like. I am really looking forward to subscribe to them for more such lovely boxes for Zorro. If you have a dog then please share some of your experiences with me. I am getting a hard time dealing with his play-biting. Leave your views in the comments. Be safe & keep smiling!

Disclaimer: Heads Up For Tails team was too kind to gift Zorro his very first Wag Box. My views are unbiased and 100% honest as always.

Review August 3, 2015

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Review & Demo

Hello all, I am back with a new post as promised. Today I am here with another review post. The product I am going to review today is a very famous makeup remover cum cleanser cum toner. It is the Bioderma Sensibio H2O micellar water. Bioderma is a well-known French skincare brand. They have a variety of products for almost every skin concern. Sadly, only a few products are available in India. I think among the few the Sensibio H2O is the largest selling product in India.

Before I proceed, let me tell you about micellar waters. Micellar waters are solutions that remove makeup and cleanse your face without the need to wash off. You can cleanse your face with a micellar water and just go to bed right after that. No fuss, right?

Now, let’s jump into the review-

Price: 599 INR for 100 ml and 860 INR for 250 ml.

Packaging: Bioderma Sensibio H2O comes in a clear plastic packaging with a pink flip open cap. The product description and the ingredients list is attached to the bottle in two separate labels. The packaging is sturdy and travel-friendly. The 100 ml pack is almost like a travel-sized packaging which is great if you want to carry it everywhere.

Product: The product is a water-based formula with a substantial cleansing property. It even looks like water. It is mildly scented although it is said to be fragrance-free. The best part is that it doesn’t contain alcohol.

Ingredients: Water (Aqua), PEG-6 Caprylic/Capric Glycerides, Propylene Glycol, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract, Mannitol, Xylitol, Rhamnose, Fructooligosaccharides, Disodium Edta, Cetrimonium Bromide.

My Experience: I love using a toner after cleansing my face. It gives me a feeling of the cleaner face. I have been using the Bioderma Sensibio H2O for a month and I can say I am totally impressed by its quality. This multipurpose solution helps to remove makeup (even the most stubborn ones) as well as cleanse and tone your skin. As a perk for lazy people, it doesn’t require to be washed off afterwards (but I like to wash my face to finish off the cleansing process). I don’t like my toners to be scented but this one just bothers me much because it is subtly scented. It is safe for eyes. It doesn’t irritate my eyes or trouble my vision. It removes makeup very well and without any hassle. It is able to remove waterproof makeup from my eyes so gently without pulling and tugging. That’s definitely a great thing.

I have made a habit of using this product on a daily basis. I like to use it in the mornings because that is the time when my skin tends to get the oiliest and grimy. I use it after I cleanse my face with my favourite cleanser. It is non-oily but it doesn’t help with oiliness, neither it claims to do so. When it comes to removing makeup, I like to soak some of the product on a cotton ball or pad and hold it in both my eyes for a good 10-15 seconds and then wipe off. I learnt this technique from Debashree, an Indian YouTuber. It magically removes all the makeup (waterproof and non-waterproof) and grime. I had been using the Lakme Absolute Bi-Phased Makeup Remover but I ended up hating it as it burns my eyes. Now, I am absolutely happy with my Bioderma Sensibio H2O as a makeup remover as well as a mild cleanser cum toner. The best part is that you don’t need to carry a tonne of products when you are travelling. This product is an all-in-one product that can replace your makeup removers, cleansers and toners.

Here’s a demo for better understanding-

Ups:

Gently removes makeup and grime.
Removes makeup very effectively.
Mildly scented.
Suits every skin type.
Non-oily.
Water-based formula feels almost like water.
Light-weight formula.
Doesn’t need a rinse.
Gentle on eyes.
Doesn’t break out.
Doesn’t irritate the skin.
Easily available on almost all the leading online beauty stores in India.

Downs: No downside.

Overall, the product is something every woman needs to have in their kitty. It is affordable in terms of longevity. The 100 ml products go for a long time as it needs a little to clean up your face. I am in love with this product and I will be repurchasing it once I finish it. I recommend this product to everyone out there. I hope you liked my review. If you did then don’t forget to share it with your friends. Share your opinions with me in the comments below. I will be back with a new post soon. Till then be safe & keep smiling!
