Blossom Kocchar Aroma Magic Under Eye Gel Review
June 18, 20150 Comments
Magic ~ That's the perfect word for this product!

Being a Blogger and a die-hard social media addict, I have to sit in front of my laptop screen for long hours. Plus, I am more of a night owl who stays awake late in the night, blogging or doing some other assignment. 

Top all this with the fact that I wear glasses, and you know HOW FREAKING tired my eyes get everyday! *crie*

The urge to soothe them occurs every 10 or so hours and I find myself reaching out to only this eye gel everytime though I have bought myself quite a lot of substitutes.

The first eye gel/cream I ever tried was the one from Lotus Herbals. Must say I liked it a lot. Yes, it did nothing to help me with my faint dark circles or even the drowsy eye bags or puffiness, but it did soothe my eyes and calm them temporarily. But obviously, my eyes demanded more and that's how I landed up on this amazing Aroma Magic eye gel from blossom Kocchar!
Rati from Makeupandbeauty.com is who introduced me to this wonderful gel. Actually, what she recommended was the eye cream from this same brand. She said it worked wonders on her mother's eyes. Following her recommendation, I hunted for that cream online and added it to my cart in Flipkart. While hunting that cream, I came across this gel and read somewhere that this gel does the same work as the cream. I am not too fond of creams, especially if I have to put them in my eye area as I have extremely sensitive eyes and it's quite irritating when the cream goes inside the eyes.

So what I did is, I bought a combo pack containing both that cream and this eye gel.. and My! My! I am so glad I did so!

I used the cream first and hated it instantly. It got straight into my eye by mistake and clouded the whole of it( how annoying) Than, with a disappointed expression, I tried this gel and was delighted!

Perfect is the word!
*It didn't get inside my eye create a havoc. it just stayed put wherever I applied/massaged it.
*It gave me this cooool minty feeling which cooled my eyes and comforted them instantly
*It kicked off my slight headache (oh yes!) and brightened my mood
*To put it simply, it put a smile on my face :)
I have been using this for 4-5 months regularly now and there's been a drastic change in my eye area. The dark circles have reduced a lot and my eyes are considerably healthy. Whenever I feel some uneasiness, I apply this gel and it evaporates instantly! *happy dance*

Now let's have a quick question and answer session!

Q. So, What makes it so special and a must buy?
A. The PRICE and the QUANTITY offered! The Lotus one is okay too but it got over in just 20 days!! Nothing can beat the quantity and price tag of this Blossom Kocchar Aroma Magic Eye gel!

Q. Does it do what it claims?
A. Yes. Yes. Yes. Actually, more than it claims. Well! Obviously you can't apply it for two days and hope for some miracle. All I can say is it is far better than its competitors which our insanely priced and I would choose this anyday over a cream worth 1000-6000 bucks!

Q. Will I buy it again?
A. I am buying a combo pack of three of these Flipkart in a few days! :D #yay

I don't write beauty reviews often so you know how much I loved this Blossom Kocchar Eye Gel to get my lazy self to writing!! :P

Always stay awesome and yes, wish you all a VERY happy Ramzan!! :D
Loads of haul posts coming up!

Plum Goodness Angel Eyes Kohl and Hello Aloe Caring Day Moisturizer Bundle Review
March 22, 20150 Comments
A good moisturizer is a must for every woman. It protects your skin and gives it the right treatment it deserves! I am a fan of organic products made up of at least 80% natural ingredients. Products made up of harsh chemicals have never worked for my skin and have left my skin with breakages and damage. Therefore, I am always on the look out for products made up of organic, 'sensitive-skin-friendly' ingredients.
Luckily, I happened to come across this amazing moisturizer, kajal and sharpener trio on Plum Goodness's website. The trio looked so pretty and promising that I knew I had to try them out!

I was impressed by the speedy delivery by this website. The package arrived all bubble wrapped and safe inside a well-packed box. My first impression on seeing its contents was "cool".

All of the three products turned out to be way more awesome and effective than I had expected them to be!

Plum Goodness Day Moisturizer:
To start with, this is my favourite product out of the trio. It simply works like magic for my sensitive skin which is prone to breakouts. It's a day moisturiser, but I find myself applying it sometimes before sleeping too. It has that cooling effect which is not present in other moisturisers in my wardrobe.

The texture is smooth and flowy. It's more like a body lotion with more moisturising features. The best part is it's 100% organic with Aloe extracts. That's what gives the cooling effect I guess.
All the ingredients and directions to use are mentioned on the outer box packaging and behind the actual product too. The packaging is travel-friendly thanks to the tight cap which acts as a closure. A little goes a long way! Bottom line, it does what it claims, very effectively at that! 

Cons:
None!

Coming to the kajal, I have more sensitive skin in my eye area. Only 5% of the best eye products in the market suit me. Even the best of kajals like the Eyeconic have caused irritation in my eyes so I have stopped using any kajal at all :/ 
I was sceptical about trying out this one but as it claims it's 100% organic, I went ahead and tried it out. 
They were three things I totally loved about this kajal:
1) It did not sting on my waterline!
2) Blackest of black colour on one swipe
3) Didn't give me Panda eyes!

Cons: 
None!

As shown in the swatch, you can see that how dark and blackest black the kajal is on only one swipe. I am in love with that sharpener! It's simply too CUTE! :D
Price: 795/-  (for the whole bundle)
Availability: These are an 'online-only' range of products by Plum Goodness.
Plus point: All products are free of harmful chemicals!

Bling Sparkle Rating:
Hello Aloe Caring Day Moisturizer: 5/5
Plum Goodness Angel Eyes Kohl: 4.5/5
Plum Goodness sharpener: 5/5

Overall, I am totally in love with this combo bundle! They are a pretty amazing set of organic cosmetics at a steal worthy price! If a product is good, you like it. If it's pricing is good, then you like it more. This is exactly what happened here. I totally love all these products which are paraben free and harmful chemicals free. They totally suit my sensitive skin and make sure it's pampered! I totally recommend this amazing brand to all you folks! You can buy their products from their website here.

Now for the good news, we love these products so much that we have decided to giveaway a similar hamper. Awesome right? :) Yes, you can win these awesome products for yourself soon. Stay connected!

Love,

Review: Jordana semi-permanent liquid eyeliner 04 Endless Black
November 06, 20140 Comments
No matter what season, Black eyeliners are always IN! Black is one color which speaks volumes and adds that much needed glamour to your face in seconds!
A winged black line on top of dusty-gold eye shadow is my all time favorite eye make up look. It never goes wrong!
I am an eyeliner girl in and out. I have tried black eyeliners from many brands available in India and while some impressed some didn't work on me. This time I wanted to try a brand which was not easily available in India and I am glad I made that move!

Long story short: I LOVE this eyeliner! It's waterproof, gives a glossy finish and simply sticks to its description of 'Semi permanent'! 
This black eyeliner from Jordana comes in a cute, sleek black bottle. The bottle is tiny to look at. The brush is sleek and thin, perfect for experimenting with different eye looks. This liner gives a glossy finish which screams 'ELEGANCE'. It's a perfect go party/bridal eyeliner which instantly brightens up my eyes.

The brush is so this and comfy that I easily work on my lower lash line(below waterline) too. The lasting power is too good. Doesn't come out unless you scrub it or remove with makeup remover. The best thing is it does not transfer/spread after drying preventing you from having panda eyes.

Pros:
*For 150 INR, it's a steal!
*Blackest Black
*Glossy finish
*Dries fast
*Sleek, fine brush for precision lining
*Texture is nice
*Doesn't cause irritation
*Lasts for ages
*Doesn't smudge/spread
*Comes out evenly like a plastic layer
*Pretty nice shades available to choose from

Cons:
The only con i can think of is the quantity! You get so used to it that you are disappointed when you find the liquid inside the tiny bottle is over so soon.
Price: 2.43$ or 150/- INR

Availability: Not easily available in stores but you can buy it online. I bought it from Amazon.com along with some more products(got free shipping).

Bling Sparkle Rating: 5/5 (Yup, no minus marks! :)

Will I buy it again?: For sure. Would like to experiment with the other colors too.
