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 31^st, 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.

Maybelline New York Fashion Brow Cream Pencil - Grey REVIEW

Ohhh lord!!.. such a big title.. I am tired already😜😝.
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.👇👇
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

Byeeeeeeeeee💖💕

Faces Magneteyes kajal Review

http://www.nykaa.com/faces-magneteyes-kajal-lasts-all-day-black.html?ptype=product&id=19750?&root=search&searchterm=faces%20kajal&type=product
So in my last post (i.e my Nykaa essentials haul ), I shared with you all the essentials that I bought🙈🙈 and after that, I have been trying those products some of which were new to me and so here's my review of one of that, which you now know by the title of it so i would just get started. This product is for Rs-175(you can get it on discount most of the times at nykaa).

First of all, lets just talk about the claims that the company makes,shall we!.👀😅.
The packaging in the front says that it lasts all day, that it is extreme black kohl and is enriched with vitamin E. Then it also claims to be water proof, smudge proof and dermatologically tested. This is written in the front, and at back it says the same things with 2 illustrations on how to use it in two different ways meaning that as a kohl and as an eyeliner😎. You can see both the pictures below(front and back)💃.

Okay!!... So after having given their claims I would now like to share what I feel about it.

First of all talking about its first claim that it lasts all day, I'd say it does last pretty long as a kajal, for about 7-8 hours on me after which it does not smudge or something but would just fade that too only a little (keeping in mind that I have oily lids and most kajals would make me either look like a panda, or would just disappear from my eyes like I didn't apply anything at all🙅) 

Secondly, talking about the colour. IT IS VERY BLACK. It is not blackest black but quite black in this price range. You guys too can have a look at it below-

Above is just one soft-handed swipe and below is 3-4 swipes with again quite light hands.

Then coming to waterproof and smudge proof, yes it is. If you just pour water, it wont do anything but if you apply pressure with your fingers it will start to come off. Also it doesn't smudge when it dries but if you want to, you can smudge it very easily when you've just applied it.

Finally coming to the part where it says that you can apply it both as a kohl and a eyeliner, I'd say it is better to use it as kohl more than an eyeliner if you're like me, in the sense that you keep touching your eyelids again and again by mistake, that's because it does not dry completely somehow on my eyelids and comes off on my hands as I touch it. However, I'd also like to believe that maybe that happens because of my oily lids but it does. 

So, if you are not like me in that case, then I'd say it will work for you for sure, because it does for my friends.

Ohh..Heyy!!.. I did use it, both as my eyeliner and kajal and I can show you guys how it looks.

First I used it as an eyeliner and the pictures are below-

Then I used it as kajal as well and the pictures are below-

Finally, I'd highly recommend this product. It is worth your money if you are on a budget like me.

I really hope my review was helpful and really thank you if you made it till the end.

I have also provided the link at the top as well as in the bottom in case you'd want to check it out.

My Nykaa only essentials haul🙈

So recently I placed an order at Nykaa just for the essentials that I use every single day, and since I am blogging now, I thought I might as well share it with you guys. This haul would be a realistic haul, for I am also on a budget as I am a student and get only a little pocket money(thought I should mention it😜).

I mainly went to shop for a kajal pencil and after a lot of contemplation and research I went ahead and decided for the one from Faces- called- the magneteyes kajal for Rs-175/-.  Here's my first purchase😎-

Then my second purchase is something that I use everyday and was running out it.. and nope it is neither a kajal nor a lipbalm but an eyebrow pencil. This product comes in my budget and is my second purchase because it is good (from the products that I can afford👀). It is the Maybelline New York Fashion Brow Cream pencil in GREY for Rs-150/-. Here, you guys also  have a look 😘-

Then my third and last purchase is what is a craze all over the Indian YouTube scenario and by now most of you must have guessed it, but even if you haven't, that's also absolutely okay because, we're only Humans Duh!!..😜😛. The product is THE FACE SHOP -The solution pore care face mask for Rs-150/-. And I am only excited to try this. Also I bought just one of them because I first wanted to try it and then maybe I'l buy more if they suit me. The picture is below-

Okay!!.. so my haul should be over but it is not because(with some excitement in my voice😄) Nykaa was kind enough to include free samples of 2 products. The first is- Livon Hair Serum sachet-

Finally the second and the last sample that they sent me is Lakme Absolute Perfect Radiance. Have a look below-

Okaayyyy!!!!......... So it is over you guyss😅. Thanks a ton if you stopped till the end.
Byeeeeeeeeeee until the next post💕

Rimmel London lipstick review for undressed

http://www.nykaa.com/rimmel-lasting-finish-lipstick.html?skuId=8650

So it has been 2 weeks or more since i have been using this lipstick from Rimmel London in the shade undressed. It retails for 275rs but i got it from Nykaa at a 10% discount if I remember correctly.
I belong to a fair skintone family and still i would say that the shade is quite light for me as well.
I personally am a sucker for nude lipsticks and so went ahead for this one. However i can only use this shade on top of a little darker shade and the effect of that is that it makes that darker shade also nude, that's how light it is. I would definitely not recommend this for dark skin tones for this will wash you out.

As far as the stay power is concerned, it stays on my lips for maximum 3 hours, if i don't eat anything that is, and if i eat, i will have to reapply it as soon as i finish eating. But for the price it is offered at, I believe it is okay.
Packaging is quite sturdy and not flimsy at all so that is good.
Overall my personal opinion is only that go for it only if you are very fair or you like a washed out face look, which also is absolutely fine. It depends on how you want to carry it. Finally, I do like the shade and am currently using it every single day.

I have uploaded some pictures below for you guys to see how it actually looks.

Links to check the lipstick out have been provided below and at the top, in case you are interested.
