Healthkart and me!!!

Hello everyone!!!
I  hauled a bit again and this time was from a online shopping site HealthKart .com.
I would like to share my experience with you guys.
HealthKart .com is an online shopping site. It deals with health products ,medical equipment,makeup ,skin and hair care ad baby products as well.

What is health kart.com
 I had ordered a few products from them..and here's my experience /
I had ordered the following products,

1. Faces mineral blush in amber rose
2. Faced mineral lip stick in maple fudge
3. Deborah milano lip gloss in chocolate

Sorry I forgot to click pics of the parcel as I was in such a hurry to try the products...:P:P:P:
The order was placed on 4th October night and on the 5th i got a confirmation call .The parcel reached my doorstep on the 8th !!! This sure was super fast.The payment I opted for was  via Cash on delivery mode .
The packaging was done well though the outer box was slightly  misshapen.
However the products were taped and neatly wrapped in bubble wrap.There was no thermocol though,maybe with more fragile products,they would use that.

Whai I Liked About the SITE:

1.  A huge variety of medical  and non medical products.Great Home devices and baby products too!!
2. Easy to navigate the site.
3. Cash on delivery option available.Am a sucker for online shopping but at the same time am not comfortable divulging my details online :P:P
4. The service was very quick and prompt.
5. Free shipping * above 500 INR.
6. Good discounts.

What I wished For :

1. Some more Makeup brands.Since I am more into makeup I wish there was more makeup..greedy I know
2. The main page for a product does not show its out of stock.When you click on the product after a search and narrowing down on the product .It shows as out of stock!!!!so much of a disappointment then...Please correct this feature guys!!

Will I shop from them again : Yes I will... some more makeup  brands please
Have You shopped from Healthkart.com??
What did you experience??

Avon Foot works Pediabrasion Foot cream Review

hello girlies!! how are we all doing.Recently have been trying a lot of Avon products (and liking them quite a bit too!).Last month came across this product ,which is a boon for lazy people like me I think who have no time to sit propped up in the parlours and get pedicures done monthly !!

The Avon Foot Works Pedibrasion Foot Cream
What Is it?
It is a cream based scrub for the feet.It  is supposed to be used after a bath or soaking your feet in water for some time(basically getting the skin soft) and then after leaving the cream on for 60 seconds ...scrub it off!!
finally rinse with water for new soft feet!!!

What they say!
Pediabrasion uses the microdermabrasion technology that exfoliates and moisturises  feet.
The exfoliating powers of daimond gem dust blasts away  dead layers of skin to reveal new priceless skin in one easy step

•  Contains aluminium oxide to help exflouate dead cells.
• leaves feet eergised and feeling refreshed.
• improves overall skin appearance
• leaves skin looking healthier.
• Caluses are softened and less visible.

My Experience with the product
It comes in a tube with a screw on cap.The product is creamy with very fine particles and spreads very easily.
It does give a good clean up to the feet.
However I wish the particles were a little more coarse.,Keeping in mind the feet have very rough skin.and lot of  dead calloused skin,the very fine particles seem to fall a bit short.
I have used it 3 times as of now and have definitely noticed my feet cleaner with this.
Whether they soften feet as well,will be apparent only after longer use,I think.

Price 150 INR .. i got it for RS 119 on offer  for 50 ml.

What I liked about the product

• It comes in a tube form ..so very hygienic.I just wish the cap was a flip top type...since unscrewing the cap with wet hands ...errr...is clumsy.....
• It smells really nice.. Its a floral cum minty smell I think....
• It gives a good clean up to dirty feet and effectively removes dirt and dead skin.

What I did not like about the product:

• Its available only through Avon reps.
• The quantity is very small..and will run out soon.
• Its a bit expensive for the quantity available...I have used the VLCC kit and the entire kit cost me 300 INR which included the scrub,soak,cream and spray!

Overall  a nice ,easy, on the go mini  pedicure for the feet.Makes the feet smell and look clean.

Will I repurchase ?
IF on offer again yes ,,ALso will see the long term benefit in terms of skin softening,and callous removal etc.

MAC coppertone blush...Review and swatch

MAC !!!
okayyyyyy Ladies...I had hauled a lotta MAC somewhere last month..just b4 my birthday..and after contemplating and contemplating and thinking and swatching and boring people(sorry Ik and Rati)...i finally got this beauty.
MAC COPPERTONE MATTE BLUSH
What MAC says!
Ok it says nothing...or maybe that says it all!!
Price Rs 1000 INR

The Product
MAC has  5 types of blush finishes in powder :Matte , Frost, Satin, Sheertone ( which goes on sheer), and Sheertone shimmer (with shimmer).
Coppertone is a Matte finish blush.

About MAC coppertone...
This is a beautiful shade for all indian skin tones. Though it might look a bit  muddy on very fair /pale skin.
This is a beautiful shade for using as a blush as well as contouring.
Makes for a great work place blush:))).It is a brownish peachish kinda shade...not really coppery !!

The things I really like :

•  The texture..its smooth and blends like a dream...It gives a nice natural flush to my NC 42 skin..
• The pigmentation is good.
• The lasting power is around 4 hours maximum..by the end of which also it fades a bit on me ( thanks to humid mumbai weather and my slick  oily skin).
• It is beautiful for contouring ..I use it with my color bar  blush (peachy rose) as  well to add more depth and dimension to my rounded (read chubby ) cheeks!
• I think it is a pretty shade for all indian skin tones ,except very pale tones....
• Its MAC!!

What I dont really like

• The price ....But its Mac afterall.Colorbar blushes have more pigmentation than MAC blushes and I just have used AvON ..which is insanely pigmented..
• There is no mirror and no brush available .I can get the brush not being there  since to get a super blended effect the small brushes usually provided would be  useless,Okayyy...I get that ..But no mirror????That gets my twitch going

Overall ...an Okay blush with fair enough pigmentation and lasting power.

WILL I RE BUY??
not the same shade for sure...want to try some other shades..... MAC has such an amazing array of wonderfulcolors...May pick up some  other color when am not budget constrained....
Which is your Favorite MAC blush??
Please share...!!!

LOREAL ENDLESS LIP COLOR REAL RAISIN 540

Hello  ladies.
Hope you all are doing fine!!am good ,have been a bit irregular ..but am back on track..
Today I will be reviewing my favorite Loreal lip color .from the endless range which is a long lasting range -shade no 540 REAL RAISIN

What the site mentions!!:

• Breakthrough patented gentle-seal technological innovation
• Colour stays correct and at ease up to eight hrs
• Produced in Paris

Can a lip color very last 8 several hours with no torturing your lips? Now it can, in one particular best stick. Unlike traditional lengthy-sporting lipcolour that depart lips dry, countless at ease 8-hour lipcolour retains lips soft and supple with shade that stays true.Anti fade with great moisturising!!

About the Lip stick
It is a smooth creamy lip color which glides easily on my lips and stays put for 5 hours without eating . It is a transfer resistant lip color,though does not stand true to the claim of the 8 hour stay.It will fade away even;ly though and leaves a mild tint.
The shade is a beautiful warm winish coral which suits my NC 42 skin tone well.It would suit most skin tones

sorry for the poor pic!! my cam Out of service..making do with the mobile

moi

What I love about the lip color( am on my 2 nd tube now)

• It is creamy and glides on super smooth.
• The finish and coverage is pretty opaque and is extremely good for highly pigmented lips.
• It does not feather.
• Does not dry out my lips
• Does not cake.
• It lasts fairly well around 4.5 to 5 hours..without eating.
• It is a very pretty shade and will suit most skin tones.
• Smells like vanilla ( i think ...like all loreal lippies)

What I dont like about lipcolor

• since its creamy It bleeds a little ...have to use it with a lip liner .
• Its pretty expensive...Rs 680 now Rs 715 for a tube!(300 bucks more and can get a MAC lippie).

 WILL I BUY IT AGAIN...I want to,,,but just last week the SA at Lifestyle told me that they are OOS !!!! and I cannot get it anywhere..One of the SA s mentioned they are going to be relaunched!I hope they are soon
RATING: 4.8/5...-0.2 for the price!!
Have you ever used Endless lipcolor by Loreal ????

DKNY BE DELICIOUS GREEN APPLE REVIEW....

There are so  many things that make us happy.....somethings bring a smile to our face even when we think of them....The product that I will be reviewing today is  something like that....only the thought is enough to make me break in to  a smile:)...As I write this post this on a sunday evening,experiencing premature moday morning blues,,,,I am suddenly not so sullen anymore....and I have not even gone near the product as yet....

DKNY(Donna Karan New York) BE DELICIOUS GREEN APPLE EDP......

What The Site mentions:

The first DKNY perfume for women was Be Delicious, which is a fragrance appropriate for daytime wear.  The top notes are green with hints of violet leaf, apple, grapefruit, and magnolia.  The heart of the fragrance is made up of tuberose, lily of the valley, rose, and violet.  The scent finishes with hints of sandalwood, amber and musk.

 A fruity-floral fragrance that brings out the freshness, brightness and energy of its wearer, the DKNY Be Delicious perfume is perfect for that charming feminine lady who is bold and outgoing. The lively fragrance opens like a green apple both crisp and tart before mellowing into a scent that is so romantic and earthly. It is like a young virgin, so fresh and heavenly, that will make you eager to take a bite and yet unbearable to see her hurt.:P:P

My experience with the perfume...

It is a very MAKE ME HAPPPY kind of fragrance....for me....The smell is very very fresh,.....it instantly remnids me of green granny smith apples.Crisp,very crisp ,juicy with the right amount of tartness to them.Another whiff I get is a lilttle cucmbery and melony...like a musky melony melony:).Also after some time the fragrance settles down to a more sweet fruity smell. also a little bit musky.In my expereince I found it to be more fruity than floral....After lasting for a few hours it settles down to a whiff of musky smoothess....

It is available in 4 varieties of be delicious original(green),red delicious(floral red),fresh blossom(floral pink),delicious night(purple coloured bottle).Also they have varities like juiced and candy....YUMMM!!!

What I LOVED :

• It makes me happy....and by that  I really mean happy...it literally brings a smile to my face when I wear it..:)))
• Its a crisp,fresh,fragrance for daytime
• It can be worn very comfortably to work,for shopping a day out.,a luncheon,just about anything
• Its glamorous and the girl next door at the same time.
• Lasts fairly well around 6 - 8 hours on me..but lightens considerably by the end of this time..
• i got it for 2385INR  from fashion and you,where as  the shops sell it for around 4000 INR +
• It is good for people who hate strong in your face perfumes as well!

What I DID NOT LOVE:

• It does not last very long ,like maybe escada magnetism....
• It might not appeal to those who dont like fruity smells.

MY VERDICT

its a gorgeous day time perfume for every age....(makes me feel young :P)would definetely rebuy....

Have you all used this as yet...???

tell tell!!!:P

hey all

OH!! why did not thee meet me before???SATIN MATTE Lip Color by FACES

hey all

Today I will be reviewing..something that I did not know existed...I had heard and Read about FACES cosmetics ,which supposedly are from CANADA....however it was their eye pencils which have been blogged about the most.

I was just browsing through their other products...( after I bought a super creamy,long stay eye pencil in black..will review that soon as well)when I chanced upon these beauties..

FACES LIP COLOR IN SATIN MATTE:

FROM THE SITE:

Colored shades to enhance the lips. Infused with Vitamin E to protect and moisturize with each beautifying application. FACES’ lipsticks come in over 180 shades in matte, sheer, cream and shimmer finishes.

There is no other detail on the site about the type of lipstick Satin matte is..:(



the berry brown  (Left)and the cordovan(Right)





single swipe swatches......berry brown and cordovan



MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE PRODUCT

i purchased two shades from their range

• berry brown..which on me looks more berry than brown
• cordovan which is a mauvish brown shade..

The lip color comes in a plain black lipstick case which is nothing grand,but does give a decent look...

the lip color on application is extremely smooth and creamy,and later settles to  a semi matte finish.I loved the shades I have.They last well on me..around 4-5 hours .It fades evenly and does not settle into my fine lip lines..

What I loved::))

• The absolute creamy and smooth texture of the lipstick.also the fact that it settles down to give a semi mate effect
• It does not settle/accentuate my fine lines.
• It does not dry my lips..in fact it is very moisturising for my lips(which are mature and wrinkly:P)
• In fact there is something i noted with this lip color...It plumps up my puckerssss.....i have not seen it being mentioned on the site.....and neither did the SA mention it...but it does!!!!!
• It fades very evenly
• Lasts fairly long around 4-5 hours with non oily mild eating...( after a particularly oily meal :P...of course it vanished.
• It gives me such a good feeling that I do not mind reapplying it anywhere and everywhere..
• very reasonably priced..rs 299 for  4 gm...( i got it at 20% off at 239:)))))))))
• when it settles down ,it is partly non transferable....

What i did not like

• Not easily available
• the Faces counter also did not have all the shades mentioned on the site
• since its so creamy it tends to bleed and I have have have to use a lip liner with it.....

The shades I have

1. Berry brown...very pretty berry color>( i do not have a single reddish shade..and this looks so wineish/burgundyish berryish on me...It brightens my face even without any makeup.
2. Cordovan..which is a mauvish brown...is my MLBB shade very on the go kinda shade...will suit all skin tones.....

rating 4.5/5......-0.5 for the poor availability....

will i repurchase??

yes surely but in a different shade now:)

Have you tried them?????

lemme know!!!

The one i will be reviewing today is RICCI RICCI .

About the perfume

From the site

Ricci Ricci - Nina Ricci Perfume

The new mischievous fragrance by Nina Ricci

Glamourous and audacious, Ricci Ricci embodies a new urban heroine in the Parisian and sophisticated universe of Nina Ricci. Her power lies in her ribbon she plays with to colour and beautify the world with fantasy and poetry.

Ricci Ricci is a fresh and sensual floral built around the Beauty of the Night flower.
Full of contrasts, the fragrance is easy-to-wear, branded and extremely feminine. It is designed for an optimistic and self-confident woman.
Daring, the sparkling top notes of Rhubarb and Bergamot bring a modern freshness.

 The middle note is floral, glamourous and feminine. It is built around the Rose Centifolia and the Indian Tuberose, and is enhanced by the Beauty of the Night, a unique and mysterious flower that reveals Ricci Ricci’s personality. 

Sensual and elegant, the base note comes with warm, deep notes of Patchouli Fraction and Sandalwood.

the bow:)

My experience with the perfume...

I got it for Rs 2895 for 100 ml bottle(actual price is around 4000+ for this size)

The bottle

Its a beautiful dark wine purple  burgundy bottle with a shiny bow shaped lid over it...It looks very elegant and I fell I love with the bottle as soon as I saw it....

Then  a whiff I took and was I hooked :P

The fragrance is floral and very sensual....The first thing  I can smell is patchouli and and its amazing....I cannot make out other smells.but i love it..its a definetely a  night night perfume...is really sexy...and me loves it....

PROS

• the bottle is hot!!! and girly as well...
• The lasting power is around 6-8 hours,which is good!
• the fragrance is killer..and am sure you  will love it...

CONS

• none as of now..:) maybe the price is a bit too much for 4000 for 100 ml,though I got a good deal....:)

me myself and my lip color!!

Hello all ,

I came across this qoute and loved it..

"If I had to teach someone just one thing about lip color it would be this: Find a lipstick that looks good on your face when you are wearing absolutely no makeup." -- Bobbi Brown, "Beauty"

As you all know am a huge lipstick hoarder....I keep on hoarding lipsticks whenever possible..am also a foundatio hoarder ,but that is another post worthy....

A few days ago, I was  just sitting and staring at my lipstick collection...( i do that often...:P),I realised to my shock that most of the shades owned by me are berry /brown berry/mauve toned colors.What happens is whnever I buy a lip color (which is very often),I am scared to experiment.I play safe with these shades because they know they would look goood on me....

Ashamed to inform you I have no.Reds/Corals/oranges in my collection.

Whenever the SA shows me a red ,i wince and pass the shade.Ditto for the orange /coral shades.

So i thought about doing this post.What lip colors would suit you??what are your safe ones ?which are the ones to avoid....??

While picking the right shade is as easy as going a couple shades darker than your natural lip color, we can delve just a wee bit deeper in the science of shades and skin tone.

Women with fair skin, look great in lipstick shades such as nudes in a slightly apricot shade, pinks and light corals. Stay away from browns, which will appear meh!!

 

fair katie!

Those with a medium skin tone can go a bit darker. You'll look great in roses, mauves and berries. Skip the bright reds and consider a deep burgundy instead. ( i fall here)...

 

 

fair--medium skin tones

Deep plum, chocolate or red is fabulous with dark skin. 

beautiful dusky skin...

How to Pick the Right Shade of Red

Many women wrongly believe they can't wear red lipstick. The secret to choosing the right red lip color is in the undertones. Pink-skinned girls should opt for cherry red.medium skin tones can go for burgundy and wine... Those with olive skin can wear fire-engine red. Dark skin looks great with deep reds.

 I have now decided to hunt for my perfect red....burgundy according to this post....:)

letting go of your inhibitions is the key i think..for me at least...:)

What are your fav lip color shades??

Do you own reds /orages??

MY(I) HATE LOVE STORY maybelline colossal volume mascara waterproof

hello every one....am back after a long long time today......My lappy had crashed and then the Internet had to be reinstalled which already was giving problems earlier..so :P
but am back for good now..

All of us have read (soppy) Mills and boon stories ok...i admit i thot they were romantic  ones inititally,but after a  point realised they are all the same.
Girl meek..meets rugged boy..hate at first sight...then takraar then love then break up and then finally love.........<3 <3 <3



My review today is typically like a M$B kinda story.......with some modifications obviously......:)
The review is about one of the most talked about mascaras in the blogging world....

MAYBELLINE COLOSSAL VOLUME  MASCARA.I have been reading and reading blog raves and rants..about this thing....most of the reviews I have read are strongly positive ones.here is mine.....A luv story which like a typical M$B story started with disgust and hate.



Read on................
I first purchased this mascara after all the positive reviews around 3 months ago.I  was expecting a 7 fold  volume increase as the company claimed ,and ok the volume increase around 3 times (so much for the 7 time claim) was good but GOD the thing was so so difficult to remove...it just stuck,and took me several minutes to remove the sticky thing....i was using my eye makeup remover and it tugged so bad at my eyes...with no results....
I tried it a couple of times more and then gave up totally. completely disgusted with its stickiness..was using a borjouis one for a while...
one fine day,i could not locate my borjouis mascara.....and this bright yellow thing lying disowned  at the bottom of my makeup box,seemed to be calling me....I applied it hesitantly and  and left for the occasion..I had worn it to an outing and git so many compliments on how my eyes looked...one friend even asked me the name of the mascara I was using.....and then I fell in love again.........
Since then  have been using it every single day..And I use cotton with oil to wipe it..and it comes off easily.......and now my borjouis is being used sparingly......
see if I had known about the oiled cotton earlier ,I could have prevented a heartbreak.but then you guys would be missing such a bitter sweet love affair....no??

What I love about the mascara:)

• its a liquid formulation,not too thick or too runny.....
• There is a good amount of volume increase but not 7 times as the company claims....
• the length increase is also at least twice....at least in m y case...
• The wand is thick and coats the lashes well in one stroke.
• I have purchased the water proof variety and it stays for the whole day ,by this I do mean the whole day.
• does not irritate eyes.
• Does not flake or dry...
• Reasonable esp for your daily mascara fix...
• does not smudge .After application it dries quickly and does not spread even if you rub your eyes accidentally.

What I do not like about it

• The fact that it is a bit clingy....although that's a positive thing for any mascara to be long lasting,I still don't like the fact that It is so stubborn   :smug:
• The big wand may poke the eyes if not carefully used . the inner lashes esp to  reach are difficult.....:I
• Two coats may cause clumpiness which increases the time to remove it in a direct ratio...

 Will I repurchase..surely now!!! coz its really is a happy ending!!
