Beauty products Haul-2018

Hey you guys!!. In this blog, as you can already tell from the title, it is a haul blog, where I will share what all I bought for myself. Also I actually bought these things before 31st, so I didn’t really buy these things this year. The products that I am going to show here are wide ranging some are of everyday use, while some are for winters and some others that are new. I got most of these products from Nykaa and now let’s get into it.
1)     Nykaa Paint Stix- shade cool girl Nude
It will be the first time that I will be trying this lippie, and I really love nude shades so had to pick this one, I am currently testing it out and will shortly do a blog review of this product, till then you can see in the pictures down below for the swatch. Also I bought this from a sale on Nykaa so, the sale price is- 303Rs and the MRP is-340Rs.
 
2)     Lotus Herbals safe sun Intensive sunblock spray
It is an SPF-50. Although it is not the first sunscreen from lotus that I am trying, but this particular one I am trying for the first time for sure. Before this I had finished my favourite- UV Screen Matte gel normal to oily skin SPF 50. This one is my all-time favourite and no matter how many other sunscreens I try I keep coming back to this one, but this time I again decided to try a cream based one because in winters I’m oily but I still can survive this one. I am trying it out only, will do a blog post when I am sure about it.
This one also I got from the sale, so the sale price is-312Rs and MRP is 365Rs.
  
3)    Biotique Morning Nectar Moisturizer
This product is also my first try and I don’t think I will be able to use it in summers as I have a combination skin and any kind of moisturizer which does not say for oily skin, generally makes my whole face shine like a diamond basically.. So I avoid using them but as far as I’ve used this one, I feel it is on a lighter side from those kind of creams, so I am not absolutely sure as well. Let the summers arrive, I will update on it. And as you guessed, it has also been picked up from a sale, price-119Rs and MRP- 149Rs.


4) Biotique Bio-Papaya Visibly Ageless Scrub
I was using a banana scrub before this from khadi, and that was really good but I got a little bored of it so I decided to buy this one. So far I have only used it twice, and must say it does clean really well, skin feels really good after using it. Basically it has a job and knows how to do it. Sale price-78Rs MRP-110Rs.
 
    5)  Boroline Antiseptic Ayurvedic cream
 This one is a like a no brainer for winters and summers as well, but I majorly use it in winters. It is hands-down one of the best creams I have used thus far. I do not use it on my face but hands, feet etc, the areas that can get really dry in winters. This works the best. However lets break the Nykaa chain here, I bought it from my local store, and so no sale or discount but hey! It’s cheap and worth. MRP-34Rs.
   
6) Rimmel London-Lasting finish by kate, in the shade-28

This was given to me by one of my cousins and not bought by me. I don’t really know the actual price of it and since I am trying it for the first time, I can’t say much about it but the colour and swatch of it I have inserted below.
             
 7) L'oreal paris mat magique all in one transforming compact
      Well this one is my second purchase after finishing the first one, so you can understand how much I love it. This is my Holy grail product,and I mostly use it on a regular basis, especially in summers. My shade is-Honey nude and this one i did not buy on sale. Its MRP is-430Rs.
8) Maybelline lasting drama by eyestudio
It is a waterproof gel pencil in the shade lustrous sapphire. bought it for the first time and ohh my god, I got only good things to say about this baby. I just love the formula, the colour, the pigment, longeviti, everything. I am now thinking of buying all its shades. This was also not from sale and so the MRP is- 499



Done!!.. that’s about it you all. I know it is not a huge haul but since these are the products that I use and will be using in the near future, I thought I might share them with y’all as well. Hope you like my post.
Thanks a ton if you’ve read this far. Loads of love and have a nice day.

Ads pro matte gloss Only Rs.-120 lippie

MRP- Rs.-120/-
First and foremost, above is the link of the website from where I bought my lippie, if you want you can check it out as well and then come and read the review or vice versa๐Ÿ’‹๐Ÿ’‹.

To begin with, the first thing that comes to my mind is the god damn priceee!!!!..
I mean at the time when everything is touching the sky in terms of price, this one is the best thing that could happen at this point.
So before beginning the actual review, below here are a few pictures of the exact product that I have got.

Okay!!.. So as you can see, the shade that I've got is skin kiss 419, and I love this shade. It is like the perfect nude for my skin tone and from fair to medium skin it will go perfectly fine.

Its qualities:-

It is true to its name, i.e it says matt and hell yeahhh it is matt. It is not even little bit shiny but yeahh after applying this takes around 30 seconds to settle so in that period, it can look shiny but don't ya worry its not gonna stay like that for long.
Secondly, it is a long wear lippie.. it stayed on me for around 6 hours and by the end of the sixth hour, what I noticed was that it was a little light from the actual colour that it had in the morning. It surely had faded a bit, but did not smudge or like cracked just faded all over, i mean that is kinda good at the price point at which it comes.
Coming to the pigmented part, trust me, you won't be disappointed at all. This baby is very pigmented and I've used many like hyped about brands that cost much more than this but are not as pigmented so this is a smart buy.
Okay yeah one more thing, if you've seen the picture above, this product is a liquid lipstick kinda thingy. It is not in a bullet form and so when you apply, it glides easily and is creamy as well.

Not qualities-

I mean at the price at which it comes and with the kind of qualities it has, i really do ignore what I am going to write right now, but i think you reading this should know all the sides of this cube(not technically but yeahh๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜Œ). 
Firstly, it does take a little bit of time to dry completely matt around 30-40 seconds and till that time it feels sticky on the lips, which can be little bit annoying at times and especially when you're getting late.
Secondly it fades more when you eat. No, it does not transfer but it fades from the lips but the thing is I have a habit of eating without like caring about anything, so if you eat carefully, don't worry then, it won't budge.
Finally, since it is matt, it is also drying on the lips it you apply it directly. So, make sure before you apply this, apply a lip balm underneath. 

Overall, it is a great product and I have been using it got a month as well so, if I happen to finish it, I am definitely purchasing it again.
Below are some pictures of me wearing it-



And then I also thought of some snapchat๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ™ˆ

Okay below will be the link again if by chance you happened to read the whole post and then you wanna go and buy it.
So, this ends my blog here until the next one
Byeeeeeee.......๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’•

Maybelline New York Fashion Brow Cream Pencil - Grey REVIEW

Ohhh lord!!.. such a big title.. I am tired already๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜.
Another thing before starting, this product is on 15% off on Nykaa as on date 16/09/2017, so if you wanna check out, I've given the link below.๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡
http://www.nykaa.com/maybelline-new-york-fashion-brow-cream-pencil.html?ptype=product&id=71325&skuId=71327
One more thing, I won't be paid if you click this link so don't worry.
MRP =Rs.175
Discount price=Rs. 149


Claims by the company:-

To begin with the review, let's first talk about what the company claims. 




  • Creamy formulation brow pencil.
  • Super blend-able eye brow pencil.
  • 12 hr wear.
  • Exclusive heat-proof.
  • Long-wearing formula.
  • Available in 2 shades: grey for dark hair and brown for light hair.






  • This is an overview of its major claims.


  • What I think about it:-

  • This is definitely one of the most affordable and quality product brought out by Maybelline, and am really thankful for that because it fits perfectly for someone like me who is a college student and on a budget. 
  • So, to begin with the first claim, I'd say yes, it is creamy but not very creamy. It is the right amount of creamy needed for an eyebrow product.


  • Secondly, yes it is quite blend-able and very easy to use for a beginner.
  • Thirdly, it is quite a long wear. It stays for 7-8 hours easily, after which you might have to touch up, but considering the price, it is really good. Also after 7-8 hours you'd anyway touch up if you are going out.
  • Fourthly, coming to heat proof, it is. I am mostly travelling in my scooty, and so I do wear helmet but it is such a good formula that it stays put when I take off my helmet. I mean I wear it and I really don't worry about my eyebrows anymore.
  • Finally coming to the packaging, I also quite like it. It is very sturdy and compact and easy to travel with as well. Does not take much space and is durable.
  • Overall I quite like this product. Ohh and it also comes in a brown shade which is to be for lighter eyebrows. I have uploaded a picture of the swatch of the grey one if you'd want to check it out. 
  • I've also provided a link in the end as well.

  • So, this ends my review. Hope it was helpful. Until the next post
  • Byeeeeeeeeee๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’•
