Everyday makeup : Reverse smokey eyes (VIDEO TUTORIAL)

Hey everyone

I am back after quite a long time, I know

It was so hot last few days and I was also busy for sometime.

Now that I am free, I am completing my pending tasks :-/

Okay so I got a request to do an everyday makeup tutorial by one of my beautiful facebook friend Sakshi

She requested me for a look which she could carry off well everyday ,yet it should stand out among everyone

She wanted neither too bright nor too dull look.So I came up with this sexy reverse smokey eye look

Though in pictures its not as prominent as I expected it to be but in reality, trust me it really looks amazing

I used the color workshop primer here so that the eyeshadows stand out well;
 used lakme silk route eyeshadow quad, vov single matte black eyeshadow in this look;
lotus black waterproof mascara,avon mineral powder, mac blush,avon almond & milk lipbalm,
colorbar lipstick in creme cup and avon everlasting kajal.

So here is the final look >>>

area of the eyelid till the tearduct


Step 4: next apply a black eyeshadow(preferably matte
eyeshadow) on the outer V area and crease.


 Step 5: blend out the harsh edges of black eyeshadow
with a matte light brown eyeshadow to give a smokey
effect to the whole look. Then dust away the loose
 powder applied before on the under eye area


Step 6: finally finish off the look applying a black liquid
 liner close to upper lashline, kajal on the waterline &
Black mascara on the lashes

CLEAN & CLEAR skin balancing moisturizer : REVIEW

Hey everyone

Today I'm going to do a review on Clean&Clear skin balancing moisturizer by Johnson&Johnson Ltd, which was requested by one of the reader of my blog ~ Priya :)

To begin with, this is my favourite moisturizer till date because it is neither too oily nor too dry for my skin.

You must have noticed that during summers, after you wash your face with a facewash, your face feels a bit dry

In that case, this moisturizer is the best solution !

Yes, it not only moisturizes the skin, it also gives a mattifying effect and seals the moisture of the skin.

It is a perfect base,i.e, if you have dry or combination skin, apply this before you apply a foundation. You will notice that your foundation will glide on like a dream.Moreover,since it is an oil free lotion, oily skinned people can use this for all the seasons :)


But yes, it may not sufficiently hydrate dry skin during winters

And to add to that, it claims to prevent blemishes, but till now I didn't notice any changes on my skin.But yes, it never broke me out (which is the best thing about it)

But I am seriously quite impressed with the packaging. 

It has got a sturdy packaging with a tight cap.So even when the container is tilted, the product won't leak at all. The hole from where the product comes out is also comparatively small, hence there won't be product wastage.

The lotion is opaque white in color but doesn't give any whitish cast after applying it all over face.

The consistency is also perfect.Its neither too runny nor too thick and instantly blends and absorbs well into the skin, hence You will not get any sticky tacky feeling.

The smell is very mild and doesn't bother much 

These are priced at Rs 80 for net quantity 100ml.Shelf life~ 3years.

I got mine from healthkart. But these are available everywhere , even in the chemist shops :)




Take a close look at the ingredients ~~

Blended

So overall it's a good product that helps in hydrating skin instantly.You may carry this in your bag, incase when you feel that your skin feels a bit dry, it can bring back the moisture to those dry areas

But yes, it will not sufficiently fulfill your needs during winters.And also the biggest CON is it doesn't contain SPF =(

So, you all can decide well, whether this product is worth spending or not.I hope you all liked the review.

AVON everlasting kajal : review + swatch + pictures

Hello everyone

So today I am going to do a  review on Avon Everlasting Kajal in Black

It is really a 2in1 product.Ask me why? ~~it is because an eye smudger has also been provided with it which is of high quality; and doesnt break even after several applications.

It is a basic black kohl liner pencil with decent pigmentation which can be used on upper/lowerlashline as well as on the waterline.And also it has a good staying power of 5 to 6 hours.

To add to that, the smudger comes with a cap, hence it is hygienic. It helps to smudge the liner precisely without tugging or pulling

It claims to be a smudgeproof liner , which is 100% true! So you don't have to worry about getting any racoon eyes. Moreover you dont even have to worry about any touch-ups.

But it is not as smooth as my favourite kohl liner from Anabelle .But still I am happy with the price of this Avon everlasting kajal atleast. It costs Rs.229 and I got in offer for Rs.159 =)

It has a shelf life of 3years and it's Net quantity is 1.14g



Smudger on one end(with cap)

smudger (without cap)



applied on the upperlashline

My tip~~ You can use it as 1)simply as a liner or 2)smudge the liner softly with the smudger to get a soft smokey look or 3)you can even apply the liner on whole of your lid(upto crease) and smudge it with the smudger & set that with a black matte eyeshadow and blend out the harsh edges of it by applying a medium brown matte eyeshadow on the crease 

So overall I am in love with this product and highly recommend you all to get this as soon as possible

DEBORAH MILANO ombretto mono hi-tech eyeshadow #51 :Review + Pictures

Hey everyone

Today I am going to do a review on Deborah Milano ombretto mono hi-tech eyeshadow in shade# 51

It is a super iridescent beautiful silver-lilac shade which can be applied as dry & wet both

The packaging is superb !You can carry this anywhere and everywhere.

To add to that they have also provided a mini eyeshadow sponge applicator which fits the shape and size of the container, i.e, the stick part where we need to hold is also round in shape ! looks very cute indeed !

These eyeshadows are decently priced at Rs.295 and in online shopping sites you get these for Rs.250 !

It doesn't have much fallout, but the pan gets messy sometimes. The micro shimmers that are present in the eyeshadow(though not gritty) falls on the black case/border of the pan.

It has a shelf life of 3 years but no ingredient list is mentioned

One good thing about it is that the cover is transparent , hence you can easily select the colors without even opening the cap, but yes, there is no inbuilt mirror with it !

Overall it is a perfect eyeshadow for dailywear .Since the color is lilac, it will suit all skin tones.It can be used as a highlighter .

My tip ~ use it as a monolid color without adding any other shades.In this way your eyes will get a silvery lilac sheen and also add loads of mascara which altogether will make your eyes look bigger, because these kind of shades(viz, beige/champagne/peachy gold etc eyeshadows) helps to make the eyes look bigger and better ;)

Ihope you all liked this review.Dont forget to comment below to share your views about the product
