Bridal Lipstick Of The Week: L'Oreal Star Collection in FIRE
November 20, 20150 Comments

The wedding season is here and we the folks at Bling Sparkle are super excited to start a marathon of wedding related Posts! :D

The weather in Bangalore has gone quite nasty these days with Non-stop rain showers and freezing temperature. My heart goes out to all those who are getting married in Winter. May you stay warm and have a freeze free ceremony. :D

There are many shades of orange, the best one I love is of this gorgeous lipstick by L'Oreal. This lipstick is from the Star collection of L'Oreal wherein each lipstick was named after a famous celebrity(who are brand Ambassadors for L'Oreal from different countries). 

This particular shade, FIRE was named after Fan Bing Bing, a gorgeous Chinese actress. 

One word For This Lipstick: Perfect.

Yes, it's simply perfect! It's that Bubbly shade every bride can adorn. This lipstick has amazing, smooth texture which seamlessly glides on my lips, giving them an opaque finish. It hides pigmentation perfectly. 


Another reason why it is perfectly Bridal is that its lasting power is DAMN good, and the BEST thing is that it does NOT dry up your lips in spite of lasting for so long. It's true to its name ~ Soft Matte.


The finish is a beautiful soft MATTE without any shimmers or such stuff which will ruin the look. It's a MUST HAVE in every Bride - to - be's booty. The best thing is, you can tone down your outfit a bit and wear it on a not-so-bridal-and-happening day too. For example, you can wear it on your Date night, Mehendi and even on a fun shopping outing with your best friend! :)


It looks SO gorgeous in me and feels SO light and weightless that I am head over heels in love with it! I always find myself ignoring all my other lipsticks and reaching out this often.

This shade will suit all skin type so it's a MUST HAVE - Go get yourself one if you are a Bride-to-be ASAP! :D
Shade: Fire
Texture: Soft Matte
Price: 999/- (Available in discounted rates on Flipkart I guess)

For the New age bride: 10 Reception outfits Under 50k
September 13, 20150 Comments
It is shocking how expensive designer bridal outfits are. The other day i stumbled upon a mint Tarun Tahliani Lehenga which was priced sky high at around 8 Lakhs and this lehenga was nowhere close to being bridal thanks to its colour. Who do these guys design for? Aliens?

How much should you spend on your wedding outfit? Thats a question everyone tries to ask themselves before heading shopping for their bridal outfits. Iam definitely against spending too much on a outfit you will end up wearing just once but then it is a special day and you are allowed to pamper yourself . If your reception is not a huge fat north indian wedding affair 50,000 INR sounds like a good Budget.
All brides want to look their traditional  best on their wedding day but when it comes to dressing up for the wedding Reception most brides want something contemporary with a touch of indian traditional . If you are a new age budget bride and cant seem to find he perfect outfit for your reception then dont worry we have it all sorted and present to you 10 Reception outfits all under 50 K .
 Most of these outfits are light weight and fun but perfect for a wedding Reception . The best part is all these outfits can be worn again to weddings of your family of friends with a little bit of  experimenting and mix and match.

Contact Lenses For Your 'THE' Day
September 05, 20150 Comments
review, shopping, Lenskart.com
I have been using contact lenses for about 6 years now and the first time to go lens shopping was on Lenskart.com ! Those who are looking forward for their first experience with lenses , I suggest you to get it done at a local optician nearby to your place. It is easier to shop for lenses online only when you know the power of each eye.
Shopping review
I got my eyes checked at a local optician’s store and later used the information provided by him to buy lenses on Lenskart. It wasn’t an easy process neither was it complicated to buy lenses from Lenskart. I faced an issue with my order twice and had to cancel it both the times and place an order on the phone Disappointed smile Other than that I am completely satisfied with their services.
Online optical shopping expereince
The site is well organized and I was able to find what I was looking for without any hassles , not to forget we get a lot of discounts and its economical to buy lenses online as I had to pay double the amount when buying offline.
Buy contact lenses best place
I heard a lot of negative reviews but went forward because it saved a lot of money and I hadn’t the time to visit my optician and place an order for a new set of lenses. I am happy  went forward with my order as I had no issues with the quality and was happy with their delivery and packaging.
Price: Reasonable. price is less compared to contact lenses old out offline.
Website: Organised, Efficient and authentic branded products are sold. I liked the option of filters and shortlist on the site.
Order Placement: Needs improvement. I was frustrated when my order got cancelled twice but their executive called up and placed my order for me via phone.
Products : Authentic and qualitative
Packaging: Excellent packaging
Delivery: My order was delivered within 10 days of time which is a little too long according to me. they could improve on their delivery time . I think it took them a little longer because I ordered a pair of toric power lenses.
Pros:
1. Has an option for all those power lenses which are high in power
2. Well organised website
3. Excellent packaging
4. Quality products delivered.
5. Economical
6. Unmatched discounts
7. Good customer service
8. Wonderful optical online store
9.Good for buying contact lenses
10. Provides option for reward points which can be redeemed later.
Cons:
1. Can’t expect a speedy delivery
2. Difficulty in placing an order. Even though the amount was charged and reflected in my bank account my order showed it was in process.
Final Views:
I would definitely shop again on Lenskart but this time I do hope my order is placed in one go and I don’t get calls stating my order was incomplete and they would be cancelling it. For all those who have already used lenses this site is a boon and a money saver!
