11:08:00

Hello angels,

Hope you all doing fine. I am feeling much better with the weekend around. Now when I am feeling so positive and great I didn’t wanted to waste more time by not letting you all know. You all have been great support and showed lot of patience with my blog. I really appreciate that. As of today I am just going to continue with my previous post about L'oreal genius range. So I picked up 3 CC genius balm lipsticks. All of this balms have amazing different fruit flavours to it. They smell so delicious. Now this balm is much different in formula than the usual caress lipsticks. Though the packaging gives us the hint of caress lipsticks. It comes in a gold tube and colourful plastic caps. The shade names are written at bottom of tube. I picked up CUPID PEONY, MIDNIGHT ROUGE, SUMMER SIENNA.

L-R SUMMER SIENNA, CUPID PEONY, MIDNIGHT ROUGE

PRODUCT BENEFITS.

Lip care so brilliant it's genius. The 1st intelligent color-caressing lip balm. Its exclusive micro-neon technology targets dullness and instantly flushes lips with vivid color. Ultra-light aerogel oil delicately wraps lips in extraordinary shine and 12 hours of the most nourishing care.

10 Vibrant Shades. 12 Hours Hydration. For Plump, Moist Lips.

This lipsticks are so buttery in texture it just melts when applied on lips. I loved the formula its like a balm but still giving such a good color pay off. It doesn’t give full coverage but it was quite surprising that how amazingly pigmented this were. This month I am definitely going to be obsessed with this balmy lipsticks. They moisturise my lips and hydrate them so well that I really don’t need any other lip care products. The formula is not sticky not slippery but stays well on lips for 3 hrs. It definitely leaves a nice stain on lips. My lips feel so soft & smooth I feel like getting all of the shades. This CC Genius balm can easily replace your lipbalms. It glides on effortlessly the shades are not too bright and vibrant but very soft and subtle. If you think its sheer than this lipsticks are complete opposite of it. It doesn’t settle into fine lines it gives my lips a plumper look without that glossy effect. It doesn’t smudge or bleed. I would say it’s a perfect balance of moisture and pigments. There are no shimmer particles in it. I would love to use this kind of lipsticks for day to day basis. This lipsticks can be used by all age women from college girls to even 40 year old lady can go with it. It does transfer but I don't mind as I get a chance to reapply them like a lipbalms. There are some beautiful rose pinks oranges and reds. So you just need to go and try some shades for yourself. I totally recommend girls who love to apply balms this couldn’t get any better. Its nothing like for matte lovers or gloss lovers if you are balm girl you going to love it. Also you going to enjoy the process of applying this balm each and every single time.

I didn’t find anything disappointing except for its staying power. Initially when I swatched them I taut it will be patchy and will look uneven. But I was glad that I tried them on my lips and instead of getting just one I got 3 because it absolutely gives luxurious feel on lips. They not only apply evenly but they were nothing like sheer lipbalms. RECOMMENDED

L’OREAL TRUE MATCH GENIUS 4 IN 1 FOUNDATION REVIEW SWATCHES

08:20:00

HELLO MY ANGELS,

Its been a while since I reviewed any foundation based products. I was not keeping well since few days. With the rainy season around I think this is the only time of year which really scares me. But now I am recovering and so I decided to finally review this amazing new products from L'oreal. This is just recently launched in India its with me since few days but never really got a chance to talk about it hopefully I will be able to post soon. So from this new range I picked up True Match Genius 4 IN 1 Foundation and 3 Genius Balm lipsticks. I know you all must be excited to know more about this lipsticks so I will be reviewing them on my next post.

There are hardly any drugstore foundation which are cream based and convenient to use. So my only motive to pick this foundation was easy to apply easy to use easy to carry and just saving lot of time.

So this 4in1 foundation comes in a rectangular plastic sleek compact. With a half size mirror inside and a sponge applicator. I picked up N1 Nude Ivory shade which is for fair skin having warm tones. I don’t prefer applying them with sponge applicator as most of the applicator takes a whole lot of product and very less is transferred on skin.

This is a cream based thick foundation which also act as primer concelar and powder. So its like all in one and you may not need anything else over this. Its a medium coverage foundation. And if you have oily skin I would say that you need to put some loose powder. Well this is good for dry and normal to combination skin. It blends easily into skin. I usually blend it with my fingers or flat brush or even oval spoon brushes. You can easily build the product for getting full coverage. This foundation gives semi matte finish but doesn’t make you look dull it just brightens and gives natural glow. It covers the pores redness and most of the marks. It evens out my skin tone well. You can also use them under your eyes for concealing by just taping it. As I have a combination skin after few hrs I did notice that my T-zone was shiny. So if you want complete matte look you probably need to dust some loose powder. But if you like some dewy look this much shine wont bother you. I am not a fan of flat matte look so I loved this cream formula. It doesn’t clog my pores. It’s a great product to carry in your bag its so easy to get a touch up.

I am happy with the shade it goes well on my skin. I am really impressed with the formula its something we all need to have. Its like you can have your foundation on the go. There are many shades available for different skin tones so you can try them and find a perfect match for your skin.
OVERALL RECOMMENDED

NEW KIEHLS TURMERIC AND CRANBERRY RADIANCE MASQUE REVIEW

01:40:00

KIEHLS MASQUE with complimentary FACE WASH

Hello beauties,

Recently I have been tossing my skin care products and making some changes into my routine. Inspite of being such a damp humid weather I have started using Clarins Lotus Face Oil which is working amazing. So like every season I need my skin care products accordingly because your skin changes with every summer every winter and every rainy. So make sure you using right amount of moisturiser and right products for you skin. If it causes you more breakouts, oiliness or dullness or even small whitheads its time to make changes. Definitely I will be talking more about my skin care products but firstly I picked up this Newly launched Kiehls Turmeric and Cranberry Radiance Masque. Who doesn’t want a good clay masque in their routine. I have been really looking for a great masque which helps my skin give that extra boost of radiance. So here they have two masques one in orange jar and other one in green jar. The one in orange is for radiance it has turmeric and cranberry seed as the main ingredient. While the green one is for protecting your skin from pollution it has cilantro and orange as main ingredient.

So the energizing radiance masque is the one which will help you give that boost of radiance and getting back your skin glow. Turmeric is not only known for giving radiance to skin but also for its antibacterial properties. Now this masque comes of light yellow color with cranberry seeds. I really didn’t feel what was the use of cranberry seed here as its not a scrub and that granular seed how does it help. It’s a creamy masque so you may want to add some water or milk to make it thin paste and them apply. I like applying directly from the jar without adding anything to it. I feel the more thick the paste is it gives better result. Initially after application I felt little warmth in my skin. Nothing like burning or itching but there was just a sensation of warmth which made me feel that something is working on my skin. I kept for 15 mins and this warm sensation went away after few mins. I just washed of with water and here I got a very soft supple smooth skin. Also I noticed after washing face I didn’t felt much glow or brightening effect on my skin. But after 2 days I did feel my skin wash brighter glowy. And it had that energy. It really helps with fatigue and dull skin. I always like using scrub before the masque so my whiteheads and blackheads are completely removed. But just with the masque it doesn’t help clearing your whiteheads or black heads. It doesn’t cause any redness and irritation but if you have sensitive skin do a patch test on your side of neck. As this products are dermatologically tested you don’t have to worry. It doesn’t help in lightening any marks or blemishes and with acne skin it may sting little so be careful. May be after using complete jar I may get more satisfying results.

I got 28ml masque for 1350/-INR which makes it expensive. This may give you around 8 applications.

Recommended to all skin types. I won't say its totally worth it till I complete my jar. But some products really work well on some skin types. So this could give you more better results than mine. You can always go for smaller pack and try. It doesn’t dry out your skin or doesn’t reduce any oiliness but it definitely give you fresh and soft supple skin in just one use. OVERALL I am happy this masque does better job than many other clay masque. Looking forward to try their pollution defending masque too.
