My Recent Fashion Haul| Harpa, People, OASAP, D-Muse, Crunchy Fashion

Hello all! hope you all have enjoyed Diwali a lot. Today I am going to show you what I recently bought. This haul is a fashion haul and comprises of clothes and fashion accessories. I think this is my first ever fashion haul in the blog. Anyways, let’s jump into the post- 
There was a sale on Jabong recently. Being a deal-hunter, I grabbed the opportunity to fill up my wardrobe a little bit as I always run out of good clothes right at the crucial moment. I bought two tops from People. Let’s check out-

The first one, as you can see, has a pastel green shade in the front and brown at the back. The top fits me very well. It doesn’t cling to your body at all. It’s very comfy and lets your body breath.  I am really into loose-fits and comfy clothes these days. The front of this top is Viscose Spandex and the backside is Linen. The second top is again a loose-fit, comfy top. I don’t actually remember the material but it is very light-weight and comfortable. Doesn’t irritate the skin and lets it breath. It is loose-fit but ingeniously highlights the curves of your body.

These two tops are again from Jabong. It has been ages since I bought them. I thought of showing them to you now. These are from Harpa and made up of the same material, that is Viscose. Both of them almost looks the same, they have these net detailing at the neck area which give them the oomph and breaks the monotony of the solid colours. I loved both of them so much that I bought them. Call me insane, but that’s me! 😛

These two tops I bought from the OASAP credit that I won long ago in Preethi’s giveaway. The bracelet you’ll see afterwards are from OASAP as well. I found the watermelon-prints very cute so I had to get it. Though it looks very short in length, but at the same time it is decently long. The heart-printed top is cute also, but I found it a little over-sized though I clearly remember I had ordered a size S L

This trouser is from Myntra when there was a festive sale going on. It’s from D-Muse and originally priced at 999/- but I got it in a 30% off discount. Happy J I love the zip detailing at the end. This is the moment when I wish I were a little taller. Sad L

These two are my current favourite possession right now. The bracelet is, as told before, from OASAP and the ear-cuff is by Crunchy Fasion, bought from Fashionara.com. I have bragged about it a couple of times on Facebook and Instagram (follow me if you don’t :P). I am currently into ear-cuffs and planning to buy a number of them J


So, that’s all for my recent fashion purchases. Stay tuned to my Facebook and Instagram to know more about my upcoming hauls. Till then, keep smiling and stay beautiful J

Gone Gold | Simple and Easy Festive Makeup Tutorial (Step by Step)

Hi all! It’s been a long time since my first and so far last eye makeup tutorial which was posted in the month of February. As the festival of lights and glamour a.k.a Diwali is around the corner, I thought of doing another makeup tutorial for you, theme being the lights and sparkles of Diwali. You must agree with me that nothing comes in mind except for golden eye-makeup when it comes to Indian festive makeup look.
Here is my look inspired by the glitz and glam of the most glamorous Indian festival. Hope you enjoy it. Please read this post till the end for the disclaimer. Now, let’s get into the post-
Products Used-


(Face)
Ponds’ BB Cream
Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Concealer
Lakme 9 to 5 Flawless Matte Complexion Compact
L’Oreal True Match Blush in Rosy Cheeks

(Eyes)
ELF Eyelid Primer

MUA Eyeliner (White)
Maybelline The Volume Express Mascara

Gone Gold | Simple and Easy Festive Makeup Tutorial (Step by Step)

Step 1: Prep your face with your favourite foundation and concealer and set it with a compact or loose powder.
Step 2: Fill in your brows with a black or deep brown eye shadow or eyebrow powder understanding your skin-tone. [Tip: Use an angled brush to fill in your eye-brows. It works precisely on the arches.]
Step 3: Prime your eyelids with any eyelid primer. I have used my favourite ELF eyelid primer. This step is mandatory in order to make your eye makeup last longer no matter how long you let yourself on the dance-floor.
Step 4: Now, apply the Maybelline Color Tattoo in Bold Gold all over your lids, leaving the crease area. This will act as a base and will give your eye shadows something to stick to. [Tip: Apply the product with your finger. It will allow you to work smooth and it will distribute the product evenly on the lids.]
Step 5: Apply a golden eye shadow that best matches your skin all over the lids with the help of a good shader brush. Here you can also use your fingers to apply the eye shadow.
Gone Gold | Simple and Easy Festive Makeup Tutorial (Step by Step)
Step 6: Take a crease brush and apply a little bit of any matte black eye shadow and dab it on the outer ‘v’ of your eyes. Don’t overdo it. We just want a subtle hint of black to eliminate the flatness of the eye look and add a little definition.  
Step 7: Blend it very well with a fluffy blending brush. [Tip: When you are using a black eye-shadow, make sure you blend it extra carefully. Don’t drag it to the entire lid.]
Step 8: Tightline the upper waterline with a jet black kohl. I have used the Maybelline Colossal Kajal as it lasts long. Curl your lashes and apply multiple coats of mascara. Make sure you apply generous coats of mascara on top and bottom lashes as we are not using any eyeliner to define the eyes. In this case, mascara will do it. Apply a flesh-tone shade to the brow bones. [Tip: Use a long-wear and water-resistant eye-pencil for tightlining the eyes. It won’t transfer and won’t smear the eye with black kohl.]
Step 9: Apply white kohl on your lower waterline. With the help of the same angled brush and black eye-shadow you used for the eyebrows and trace along your lower lash line, leaving the inner corners of your eyes. [Tip: Applying white liner on the lower waterline creates the illusion of bigger eyes.]
Step 10: Final look.

You can use your choice of products, it’s not mandatory to use what I used.

Disclaimer:
1. Makeup is not what I think is extremely important in our lives, nor that I preach that everyone should use makeup. Some like makeup and some don’t. It’s just like some people love dressing up and some love to be in their pajamas most of the time (Even I belong to the latter category :P). So, there is nothing wrong in doing makeup and nothing wrong in not doing it as well. One should not be judged in terms of their preferences.  
2. I am not a makeup guru, nor that am I claiming myself a makeup expert. It’s just what I tried on myself and wanted to share with all of you. There are many expert makeup artists and bloggers who are way better than me. I do not compare myself to them as I feel I have a long way to walk before I reach that level. Please do not judge me.

The title of the post makes me the ‘official Gone Girl fanatic’. LOL 😛

I hope you liked the look and the tutorial. Feel free to comment below. Show your love, write down your queries and expert advices. Love you all. Till next time. Bye J

Faces Go Chic Lipstick- Suede Pink| Review and Swatches

Hello all! How are you doing? I hope everything is going great in your lives. Today I am going to do a review of the Faces Lipstick in Suede Pink which I got almost two months ago and waiting to share with you all. This post was lying in my drafts folder for almost one month and I thought it should be posted as soon as possible. So, here is it. Let’s not waste time and let’s get into the post.
Product Category:Lipstick
Brand: Faces Canada
Price: 199 INR
Faces Go Chic Lipstick- Suede Pink| Review and Swatches

Faces Go Chic Lipstick- Suede Pink| Review and Swatches 

 Packaging: Faces Go Chic lipsticks comes in a classy black bullet packaging with the shade number and name printed in a label at the bottom of the packaging.

Product (Shade, Texture, Pigmentation and Staying Power): Faces Go Chic lipsticks are really smooth in texture, very creamy in formula and nice in pigmentation. I have been using two of them for over a month now and I’m pretty happy with them. Today the shade from the Go Chic range I’m going to discuss is not at all the typical ‘Pink’ unlike the name suggests, it’s a deep berry/pink shade with blue undertones. A person could easily get duped if he/she is counting on the shade name only. Texture of the shade Suede Pink is very smooth and the creamy formula makes it glide on easily and uniformly on the lips. This shade is richly pigmented giving an opaque finish in just a single swipe. It is able to camouflage my darker upper lip. This shade doesn’t leave any kind of tint after wiping off. The only drawback of this shade is its staying power. On my lips it stays for only 3-4 hours.

Faces Go Chic Lipstick- Suede Pink| Review and Swatches 

Ups:

  • Nice rich brownish berry shade that will flatter almost every Indian skin-tone.
  •  Creamy texture.
  • Glides easily on lips.
  • Uniform colour pay off.
  • Gives opaque finish.
  • Moisturizing, doesn’t dry out the lips.
  • Doesn’t feather out.

Downs:
  • Transfers.
  • Doesn’t stay for a long time.

What I have to say is- Faces Canada Go Chic Lipstick in Suede Pink is a very luscious berry pink shade which is great for evening outings or dinner dates. The creamy formula keeps your lips moisturized for a time being. I don’t think there is any need to put a lip balm underneath the lipstick. It is, in my opinion, a luxury within this price tag. Though the staying power is a bummer, but then I must consider the price. I would suggest you try this shade. You won’t be disappointed.

My Rating: 3.8/5
I hope you liked the review. Feel free to share your opinion. Also, tell me if you own any lipstick from the Go Chic range and which is your favourite. Tell me if I should try any other shade from this range. Thanks for reading. Till next time 🙂

best colleges in India

Discard Your Educational Worries- CollegeDunia is here!

Gone are those days when students and their parents submerged in deep thoughts about getting them or their children admitted to the best colleges that fitted with their certain needs. No need to tell that that was utterly chaotic and stressful. Concerning those parents and students a new website has been developed this year that vouches for providing the best counseling about colleges. Collegedunia.comis basically an Educational Classifieds portal, which apparently has information on 20,000 colleges and universities with 6000 courses categorized in different streams in India and as per the founder of Collegedunia, it would be able to involve around 30,000 by the end of this year. 

Sahil Chalana, the founder of CollegeDunia.com says, “We spotted a huge gap in the data being catered and the quality of information being sought by College aspirants in the pre Admission session. The notification of colleges today is very scattered and students are looking out for detailed presentments such as Cut offs, Admission Process, eligibility and even Co-Curricular Facilities.”

Collegedunia deals with, as the name suggests, India’s most reputed colleges and universities. Their aim is to serve the needy with all kind of information like placement, admissions, festivals to fees, course intake and reservations, all in a single platter. Currently this website is dealing with almost every stream of education such as Engineering, Management, Medical, Arts, Commerce, Science, Law, Mass Communication, Agriculture and what not!
Image from Collegedunia.com Website
This website has a smooth navigation; it loads really quickly on any browser. At the landing page there is a tab with the names of different streams, under each of them is a search pane with a lot of choices under Bachelors and Masters Degree category. There are a handful of filters to choose from- one can choose their desired type of studies (part time or full time), then stream and finally location and search for a college as per their requirement.

I would suggest all the students who are about of start off their higher studies or the parents of such students to look for a college as per their need and convenience on Collegedunia.com before the results are out. I would definitely cut down the long term and hectic procedure of deciding of an ideal institute to pursue the studies.

I hope this piece of information would prove to be useful for you or any of your acquaintances. Do comment to express your views on this post. Thank you 🙂

How To

How to: Five Ways to Save Money While Shopping

We all love to shop, especially ladies. Women shop for two reasons- firstly, necessity and lastly, impulsiveness. I consider myself as an impulsive shopper. I know a lot of you would tag yourselves as impulsive shoppers as well. Shopping in impulsion has its own consequences, most important of them being excessive expense. You could literally make a hole in your own pocket. But then there are a few cheat tricks that can keep a tight rein on your expenditure. I, myself, have a few formulas to save as much money as possible from a purchase. Let me share them with you-
1. Make a List: Before leaving for shopping, make a list of the things that you really need. A list won’t allow you to shop for unnecessary items. Sometimes we forget what we needed by the time we reach the shop. A list will remind you about the things you need so that you don’t get lost into the aisles full of alluring stuff. It also saves your valuable time.
2. Bring Cash: After making the list, make an estimate of how much money should be needed for certain purchase. Bring only that amount with you. It will make sure you won’t shop impulsively.
3. Shopping Online: Let it consider the boon of internet, shopping has never been easier than this. Online shopping has cleared the fence between possible and impossible. Shopping international products that you had never thought could be procured to your country, is now as easy as making a smoothie (pardon me for this bizarre comparison). The main reason why I love shopping online is because there are always some sales going on there. You can buy your desired article no matter where you live. Some products that are newly launched and you can’t find it in your area, online shopping is always the solution. Being a small town girl, I know that better than anybody. If you can’t find any deals in-store, you must find one online.
4. Coupons and Discounts: A lot of coupons sites are there that provide discount coupon codes and deals for your online purchase. They offer you some exclusive deals and discounts on several online stores that you might not have found before. You can get great deals on cosmetics, clothing, movie tickets, restaurants and many more. As an instance, if you are looking for exclusive discounts for a specific site, simply search for Online Discount Coupons for the site, and you will be navigated to your desired site and then you can choose your discount coupons as per your requirement.
5. Keep Yourself Focused: Now, this is all up to you. Just concentrate on what your need is and what would be unnecessary for that moment. When it comes to makeup products, we women don’t feel anything is unnecessary. We try to find out excuses like “I don’t have this particular shade of lipstick!” or “All my nail polishes would dry out in a few days!”, but we don’t realize that we are just being impulsive. If you really need to save money then don’t listen to the SA. He/She will tempt you saying “This will look great on you!” or “Buy ‘this’ and ‘that’ along with ‘these’ and you can get a free makeup pouch!”. You just say ‘NO’ because you have already bought what you needed the most. Ignore and make the payment and you will bring a happy wallet with you to home.

I hope these tips will be helpful for you. Try out yourselves and let me know if any of these worked for you or not. Also, if you have some money-saving tricks that you want to share with me, then feel free to write a comment. Be blessed.

Pamper Your Hair with MABH Fast Growth Hair Oil| Experience & Review


Hello all! I hope you all are doing great because summer has started to fade out and monsoon has come! In Bengal, it’s raining most of the time, sometimes in torrents and sometimes it is drizzling only. Talking about monsoon, I remember that my hair acts extremely bad during monsoon. I have very week roots resulting in severe hair-fall and during monsoons it becomes excessive. Every time I comb my hair I feel like all my hair has come to my hand. It’s not only bad to see, but also it’s very depressing.  But this monsoon, something unusual has happened. Keep reading to know more-

I think it was the month of June, when I received a hair-oil from Lancy (She is the maker and manufacturer of this oil. Lancy has a beautiful blog named Makeup And Beauty Home). I had also posted a picture on Instagram. She wanted me to review it. I usually worry about trying any new skincare of haircare product, for I always think ‘what if it breaks me out noxiously or what if it makes me bald?’ But when I google-searched the MABH Herbals Fast Growth Hair Oil, I found a lot of positive reviews about me. I also searched on Lancy’s blog and got to know that this hair oil is absolutely herbal devoid of any chemical substance. Moreover, it was written on the packaging that it is meant to be speed up hair growth and control hair-fall, what more I would have asked for?


Pamper Your Hair with MABH Fast Growth Hair Oil| Review
As soon as the product reached me I decided to try it for a month or more before delivering my final thoughts. I have been using it for one and a half months now and I think I am now enough experienced to give my ‘expert opinion’ 😉 During the entire testing period, I used it every alternate night just before going to sleep as I love to apply oils in this way only. I applied it onto my scalp by gently massaging it to the scalp. I wiped the rest of the oil that was on my hands on the top portion of my hair. I then covered my hair with a soft cotton cloth so that I don’t stain my pillow covers. 

Product Category– Hair oil

Brand– MABH Herbals
Price– 400/-

What it Claims: A unique combination of natural herbs and essential oils present in the MABH Fast Growth Hair Oil penetrates deeper into your scalp to provide rich nourishment. It also improves blood circulation, thus resulting in faster hair growth. It also takes care of dandruff, premature graying and rough hair. Our product makes your hair shinier and manageable from the first use itself; it stops hair fall within weeks of regular usage and helps you grow longer beautiful hair!

Pamper Your Hair with MABH Fast Growth Hair Oil| Review
My Experience: I have already said here that I have severe hail-fall problem along with terrible dandruff problem. I am not a person who oils her hair religiously, but this time it has opened my eyes. I can’t tell you how smooth my hair feels after every use. This oil isn’t at all greasy. I have used many herbal oils but they always left my hair with some kind of a tacky feeling, which is irritating. It has a strong fragrance which is quite often found in most of the herbal hair oils. I somewhat don’t like the fragrance. I think it can be disturbing for people who are not fond of strong fragrances like me. The scent fades away with shampooing but a little bit does linger for a little time after one wash. The oil is very light-weight, that’s a good thing for me as I prefer my hair-oils to be very, very light. I feel it didn’t do anything for my dandruff, it is the same as it was before. I won’t say it has arrested the hair-fall, but it has definitely reduced it. Also, it didn’t help in regaining hair, neither did it claim that. So, what is actually did to my hair is- it nourished it from the roots to the tips, my hair became manageable. It eliminated the frizz from the hair making it shiny and smooth. It reduced the hair-fall miraculously. I can’t say if it made the hair grow faster because I have hair that grows really fast naturally. So, I’d skip commenting on this part.
All I Have to Say is– I have been using this hair oil and can vouch on the fact that it does make your hair touchably smooth. So far it has worked great for me- it has made my hair soft and shiny, manageable and has lessened my hair fall to some extent. It is a bit pricey compared to other hair oils available in the market, but I can say that I am loving this hair-oil for more than one reasons and I am sure you won’t regret buying and using it yourselves.
My Rating– 3.8/5

I will be back soon with another new post (you can expect a haul next week). Till then take care and stay beautiful J

What I Liked the Most- They have a very simple and minimal design for their website, not something that I can get lost into. Everything is categorized wonderfully. There are tabs for ‘Top Stores’ and ‘Top Brand’ which make it easy to find out coupons according to your preferences. Also, there is a tab called ‘Top Banks’ under which a bunch of banks are enlisted that have offers for their specific debit or credit cards which I found really unique and convenient. This website provides you detailed information about each and every deals found on their website.

They also gives you a chance to contact with them if needed. They have a separate contact me form for that. Also they have a page meant to be giving instruction on how to use the coupons.

best ELF lipsticks

ELF Studio Matte Lip Color- Natural and Tea Rose| Review, Swatches and LOTD

Hello all, hope you all are doing great. As you know, I was MIA for quite a long time. Actually, my grandfather passed away earlier this month and I was preoccupied with all the rituals and responsibilities. I couldn’t get the time to sit for hours and write blog posts. Sorry for that guys. Nevertheless, I am back in action once again and hoping to get into that writing phase all over again.
Today, I would be reviewing two neutral lip colours from the ELF Studio matte range. The two shades are- Natural and Tea Rose. I have shared these lippies in my iHerb.com haul post. Now let’s jump to the review-
These Matte Lip Colors have a creamy matte formula. It’s not a drying, powdery matte but quite moisturizing on the lips. I loved the fact that this lip colors don’t settle in the fine lines nor they accentuate dryness. It may feel a little dry during the winters, but it won’t be flaky. Before using any lip product I love to use a lip balm beneath. This is not only because my lips tend to get dry frequently, but also because I am habituated to this process.
These Lip Colors stays on the lips for almost 5-6 hours. They don’t bleed, but transfer a bit and they don’t leave any tinge to the lips after wiping off. Applying these lipsticks is very easy as the formula is really creamy and smooth and they glide on the lips effortlessly. Just one swipe is all you need to get an opaque finish, but I love to apply it twice to get a wonderful result. The thing I loved most in this Lip Colors is that they are so light weight. It feels like I don’t have anything on my lips. That is surely a good thing.

ELF Studio Matte Lip Colors come in four shades-

  •  Natural
  •  Tea Rose
  • Coral
  • Praline

Product Category- Lip colour
Brand- E.L.F.
Price- $3; near about  184 INR(Dirt cheap, ain’t they?)

Packaging: These lip colours come in a twist up pen like packaging with a matte black body and a tight cap. These are super sleek and could be carried even in a wallet. The packaging looks unbelievably classy for its price. The bottom indicates the shade of the lip colour.

ELF Studio Matte Lip Color- Natural and Tea Rose| Review, Swatches and LOTD
ELF Matte Lip Color- Natural

Natural is a n*dish shade with slight pink undertone. I’d say that it might wash out most of the Indian skin tones. I have medium wheatish skin tone with slightly dark lips and Natural looks way too paler than my lip colour. That is not that kind of n*de you’ll like to have. But, it would suit paler skin tones, people with pink undertones. Not a proper n*de for yellow or olive undertones. I love to use this lip colour to conceal my uneven toned lips before applying any light lip shade. It helps to pop out the actually shade. Below are some pictures of Natural-

ELF Matte Lip Color- Tea Rose

Tea Rose is also a neutral shade with slight hint of mauve. I felt Tea Rose is a little creamier than Natural. This is also another pale shade but it doesn’t wash me out. If you have a heavy makeup on your eyes or smoky eyes, this shade will go well with it. You can apply a gloss on top of it to give it more depth. Below are some pictures of Tea Rose-

Ups and Downs of ELF Matte Lip Colors-

Ups:
  • Classy packaging.
  • Perfect creamy matte formula.
  • Very light weight on lips.
  • Moisturizing.
  • Stays for quite a good time.
  •  Doesn’t feather out or smudge off.
  • Decently pigmented.

Downs:
  • Might not be appropriate for every Indian skin tone.
  • Has a mild wax-like smell, but it can be avoided. Smell doesn’t linger after application.
  • NOT available in India.

All I have to say is- ELF Matte Lip Colors are worth giving a try if you are a neutral-lover. I think these shades should be in every makeupista’s kitty. I know we don’t usually do heavy eye make-ups, then you can use these lippies as base, for they are super creamy and moisturizing or you can use these for eliminating dark patches from your lips. They are super inexpensive yet perfectly formulated. I am not sure about Natural but I am surely going to keep Tea Rose with me.

My Rating- 3.5/5

I hope you liked this review. Feel free to let me know your opinion. What is your favourite neutral lipstick?
