SHIMMERY GOLDEN EYES

Hey friends,
As promised I am trying my best to be regular at my posts, I always like to take my time before doing a post .I dont want to rush just to make a post. So I hope you all are liking my posts and without further ado lets get started with todays look.
The eye makeup done on this post is perfect for parties and weddings as it involves a very traditional Indian color suitable for such occasions, meanwhile GOLD is such an eye catching color it just sits perfectly for most night time events.
Okay so here is the breakdown:

 1. Apply NYX JUMBO PENCIL in GOLD all over the lids and then blend the color with your finger.
  2. Next apply a shimmering gold color all over the lids and also on the inner corner of the waterline.

3. Taking a small blending brush add a deep brown shade on the brush and apply a thin line all over the crease area.

4.Take another clean blending brush and pack a medium brown or medium copper shade and apply it above the crease area and with light hands blend the two colors.

5. On the lower waterline add the vibrant emerald green color on the centre of the lids blending it in with the gold on the inner corner.
6. Apply black eyeshadow on the outer corner of the eyes and blend it with the green eye shadow.

7. Apply black liquid eyeliner and wing it out for a more dramatic look. And add lots of mascara .
8. Clean up any fall outs under the eyes and complete the face makeup and you are done!

Hope you enjoyed the post
Until next time...

NYX MEGA SHINE LIP GLOSS IN : BEIGE

Hey everyone,
I am back with another review. This time its for a NYX product. We all love NYX. The product I am reviewing today is their very popular mega shine lip gloss and I shall be reviewing it in the color BEIGE. Okay so here is the confusing part I for the life of me can not understand why is this lip gloss named BEIGE, because its totally 100% not beige...its a warm medium pink.

So lets see what NYX has to say about its MEGA SHINE LIP GLOSS:

Kiss me quick! Our signature Mega Shine Lip Gloss delivers shine, moisture and softness and envelops lips with glistening color. The finish is both creamy and steamy and ensures knockout glamour. A blend of mineral and lanolin oils helps protect the pout. Available in 50 almost sinful lip gloss shades.

We hear you, 50 shades.....that is most certainly sinful on their part. How much are we supposed to buy and ultimately hoard?

Okay lets get started.

PACKAGING: These lip glosses are packaged in a clear tube with a black cap/lid. It comes with a doe foot applicator which is nice, I am not a big fan of brush tip applicators. The clear tube helps in identifying the shade among your makeup pile( just kidding), but yes indeed it helps being in a transparent shade.

APPLICATION: This shade is very pigmented one swipe and you are good to go. That said I like to apply it over a nude lipstick or sometimes just even on the center of the lips to add a little more pout to the lips.

COLOR AND TEXTURE: This shade is nice warm medium pink.It glides on very smoothly and it doesnt feel very heavy on the lips .These lip glosses are not sticky .  Its a fairly long lasting lip gloss, you will have to reapply it after 4- 5 hours or so. They have the perfect amount of shine and the colors...you can actually see them on your lips they are opaque. They are moisturizing on the lips.

with flash

PRICE: They go for around $5 in the USA, and I hate to say this but they are way pricier in INDIA. They are priced at around INR 475-500. I mean come on....You cant help it. It is what it is.

one swipe

OVERALL VERDICT: I would definitely repurchase this particular shade  Its not sticky and heavy feeling which is a major plus for me. Pricing wise of course its better to buy it from USA .. You should check it out, its worth the money spent. This is already my second tube of this particular shade. The color selection on the entire range is AWESOME.  The texture is really smooth and applies smoothly on the lips. And best of all the color is actually opaque and you get what you see which is a major plus for a lip gloss.  ALL IN ALL GIVE IT A TRY YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED.
So that will be all on this post.  Hope to write soon. I try and try to blog regularly but its just not happening. AAAHHHH....Will  try harder, meanwhile if any of you have post or makeup look in mind  you want me to blog about please feel free to comment below

Until next time...

L'OREAL PARIS GLAM SHINE 6HR LIP GLOSS IN FIERY 305

Hello hello,
Okay so I am on a roll, I would sincerely like to blog often .I am going to be posting more reviews on lip glosses.. its summer time girls! Okay I like to apply lip glosses through out the year but especially during the summers and also because this last winter I kind of have been hooked on to my matte

lipsticks so I am making a deliberate effort on my part to use more of my lip glosses and what better time than summers to pucker up those lips and slap on some lip gloss.
ENOUGH ALREADY! I should better start the review.

L'oreal Glam shine lip glosses have been around long and what made me write this blog is the fact that I have repurchased it and intend  to do so in the future. These are a little sticky not too much nothing that would trouble me and it is so because of the long wear formula. It comes in a clear tube with a doe foot applicator, now I quiet like the shape of its applicator ,it makes it easier to follow the shape of your lips using this. It doesnt last up to 6 hours, but we all know no lip gloss does.

They are priced at INR 799/- ,little pricier compared to the NYX lip glosses .

This particular shade is a perfect companion to a party or a wedding. Its shimmery so I use it for night time events. It has gold shimmers mixed with the brown so under lights it reflects gold which is very pretty .These arent the best their are but I like them, they are better than a lot of others and I quiet enjoy this particular shade. Its a sheer gloss so I make it a point to always apply it underneath a lipstick and I used it over red, brown, nude all sorts of lipsticks, its a great lip gloss. What I like most is its very versatile.

SOFT SMOKEY EYE WITH A POP OF COLOR : NYX PALETTE IN MYSTERIOUS BROWN EYES

Hello everyone
This post is going to be on my take of soft smokey eye for day time and all the more fun during the spring/summer time as it involves a bright pop of color. I used a teal blue color as my pop up color.
Below is a step wise tutorial on how to achieve this look. The NYX palette was just jumping at me do this look. The pictures didnt come out great though sorry! I will try to do a better job next time I promise.

1. apply this shade on the entire lid area hitting just below the crease.

2. apply this on the crease area and blend so there are no harsh lines.

3. Add a little bit of black eyeshadow on the outer v and blend it well. This palette doesnt have a black eyeshadow I just use it from another palette.

4. Add the highlight under your brow.

5. Now the fun part. Take a teal blue eye pencil and line your lower lash line.

I went over the liner with a teal shade in this palette to set the eyeshadow and also added black eyeliner in the water line to give i some depth, but its an optional step you can ignore it if you want to.

6. I added a black liner with an eye shadow to make it look softer and not so strong, you may use your regular eyeliner.

Hope you all liked it

Until next time...

L'Oreal Infallible Lipstick In Refined Ruby 337 : Review

Hello everyone,
I am back with another review. This one is going to be on Loreal Paris Infallible Le Rouge Lipstick in Refined Ruby. Refined Ruby is my most worn and most loved and most favorite Red lipstick. I love it too too much.
Its priced at INR 900 and USD $9.99.
Lets get the review started.

PACKAGING: The lipstick is packaged in a clear and transparent tube and it quiet sturdy. Being transparent allows you to see the color without opening it. All the lipsticks in this range have a red color coating on the top of the lid, which doesnt make much sense to me, the packaging should be able to help identify the color of the lipstick not misguide you. Also for the price the packaging isnt up to the mark. But looks aside the packaging is secure and sturdy so the lipstick is travel friendly.

TEXTURE: I own a couple of shades of this line and can safely say that texture of the lipstick is soft and smooth. Its formula is thicker so its not buttery smooth but smooth enough. Being a red shade it is very pigmented shade and color payoff in a single swipe is exceptional. Its a creamy lipstick and it has semi matte finish so its not exactly glossy or shiny. (If you do prefer that kind  look then I suggest using a lip gloss.)

COLOR AND STAYING POWER: Ooooo...where to begin.Its a darker red with blue undertones. Its not on the orange side and thus makes it all the more flattering for almost all skin colors. Its vibrant and a bold red which sure makes a statement. The staying on this lipstick is A-M-AZ-I-N-G. It is infallible literally...of course in between meals it does fade away but ever so slightly. It stays for a good 7-8 hours on the lips without having to reapply.

APPLICATION: As with any bold and bright shade ans especially with reds its best to start with a lip liner. This lipstick is very pigmented and thus for most part one swipe is sufficient. Since it is not buttery smooth it is advisable to keep your lips moisturized.

OVERALL VERDICT: I am very pleased with this lipstick right from the texture to the formula to the staying power to the color everything is bang on. Its true to its claim , its a long wear lipstick but what is surprising and wonderful is that its still easy on the lips. The lipstick doesnt dry out even after hours of application as most long hour lipsticks do, they get dry and uncomfortable on the lips they get between the lines. Not this one mam, no no no...I would definitely repurchase this particular shade, and would most definitely try out other shades in the line. I am HAPPY girl! This product is worth spending the money on...because I'm worth it! okay kinda cheeky...but what...(just writing about this stuff makes me happy).I would definitely recommend you all to try this lipstick. Even if red is not your color do check out other colors in the line, they have an awesome selection.

Good job L'Oreal keep 'em comin.....
Until next time.....
