Nivea Lip Butter In Raspberry Rose Review .
November 08, 20150 Comments

Nivea lip butter

I have tried a lot of lip balms that have butter in them but a lip balm exclusively made and feels like butter from Nivea was a must try and I bought this one 4 months back and ever since I have been using it daily and here’s the review!

Nivea

I bought this online on flipkart along with caramel which I’ll be reviewing later. This is my favorite flavour among the lip butters as it leaves a light pink tint on lips!

This cutie comes in a tin packaging and consists of shea butter and almond oil which are great for moisturizing lips. The best part of this lip butter is their smell, so sweet! Raspberry rose  smells a lot like light rose along with tinges of raspberry, not artificial at all. I am sure many of them will lobe this for its smell!

These are easily portable and travel friendly. Packaged in small round tin tubs they are easy to open and close. Very helpful during winters when lips are chapped the most. The texture is thick but light when applied on the lips.

Bleach on your own: Oxylife Bleach Review
June 23, 20150 Comments

It's almost July already, time isn’t flying but rocket speeding! I hardly attend wedding during this month because of Ramazan but hey one cannot miss a wedding where the bride is your best friend! My bestie who got engaged 9 months back was getting married and all preparations were in full swing. The bride , ie Dhanalakshmi (My BF) was going bonkers on getting rid of facial hair and every small black patches. And mind you, she was the most gorgeous bride I have put my eyes on in a very long long time. She looked radiant and beautiful! Later on when I asked her how many hours she had spent in the parlour to get rid of all that uneven skin toning and facial hair she surprised me with something affordable and best of best , something which I could do on my own. (I hate going to the parlour, hence I make sure I do almost everything on my own) It is she who recommended this product to me. She has sensitive skin and she was all praise about the new Oxylife bleach crème. So there was this video on YouTube which I watched and then decided to give this crème a try.

Bleaching is one thing I believe should be done on your own. Well it's because I had a very bad experience while getting it done in a reputed salon. I don’t have sensitive skin yet I have felt burning sensation when I used a few bleaching products in the past.

Product Features :
OxyLife bleach is the healthiest bleach making the rounds everywhere. It comes with a unique formula which forms a protective shield for almost all types of skin, giving a safe and easy bleaching experience. OxyLife Bleaching crème within a short period of time has become a highly recommended brand by leading beauty professionals and parlours.

OxyLife bleach makes sure the correct amount of active oxygen required for the face is circulated and makes dull, dark and lifeless face bright and glowing instantly! Its special oxygen technology infuses new life into dull and uneven skin, making sure the effect lasts for a longer period. OxyLife crème bleach comes with a unique formula that forms a protective shield for even the most sensitive skin and gives you a safe and healthy bleaching experience at your home and the best part you can do it on your own!

OxyLife bleach comes with a whole kit- white creme bleach, an activator powder and post bleach skin radiance serum. The Oxylife Bleach is ammonia free, which is great! It was time to #SayYesToOxygen


Brand Application Steps (Read more here) :
Step 1 - Wash face with plain water and pat dry.
Step 2 - Take crème bleach and powder activator in the ratio of 7:1.
Step 3 - Using the spatula, mix the activator and crème for a good 2 minutes till the powder activator dissolves completely.
Step 4 - Apply the mixture on the area to be bleached. Avoid application on eyebrows and around the eyes.
Step 5 - Allow it to remain for the recommended time (up to 10 minutes for darker skin tones, up to 15 minutes for wheatish skin tones and 15 minutes or more for fairer skin tones)
Step 6 - Wash off with cold water.
Step 7 - Apply the post-bleach skin radiance serum on the bleached area and see a visible radiance!

Procedure to Use:
- Firstly I make sure my skin is clean (Wash and pat dry) after which I secure all of my hair in a bun to avoid bleaching my hair.
- Then I take a small amount of bleach creme and pat it slowly on my neck and face area beginning with the upper lip.
- After a gap of 3-4 mins I apply the mixture of creme and a little amount of activator
- I generously apply the creme on my face and neck and leave it for 15 mins after which I wash it off with cold water. I don’t use a face wash after bleaching.
- Once I have removed the product, I applied the Glow serum on my face and neck  giving it an instant glow! I also noticed that the serum made my skin more supple. That’s it , you’re done bleaching! Simple isn't it ?

My skin is now at its best! The glowing effect managed to stay put for a week! The cream and the Glow serum worked wonders for me and by bringing a glow to my skin first followed by skin lightening.

I am highly indebted to my friend for having recommended this lovely product to me :D When I tried it out, I realized that not only did it work beautifully on my skin, but also brought about a healthy glow, without traumatizing my skin in any way. Have you tried bleaching at home? If not this is your golden chance to give it try.

Fuschia Arabian Jasmine Anti-ageing Night Cream Review and Swatch
May 03, 20150 Comments

I read a lot of beauty blogs and i have deep respect for bloggers who religiously put up empties post regularly. I can never do it because i seem to take ages (more like forever) to finish products or they just get expired and unfit for use . But miracle happened when i with the Loreal night cream (Review here) . I purchased this cream on a discount and this was expiring in 3 months so i decided to use only this religiously every night  and try to finish it before expiry. The result well i finished this cream in 2 months flat!
I had purchased the Loreal Night cream as an anti aging care and after this cream finished i decided to finally start with anti ageing regime and the Fuschia Arabian Jasmine Anti-ageing Night Cream  landed at my door step at an apt time. Now this Fuschia cream has replaced the loreal night cream and i have been using this cream for more than a month now and here i present to you my experience with it.


You cant avoid ageing but you can definitely delay it . Iam 25 and most skin experts say 25 is the right  time to start anti anti ageing regime and i have decided to start early and this is my first anti ageing cream.

Price: 675 for 50 gms
Shelf life: 30 months
Ingredients : Jasmine Oil, Olive Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Kokum Butter, Aloe Vera, Vitamin E and Biostine HP.
Packaged beautifully in a transparent tub with a screw cap the Fuschia Arabian Jasmine Anti-ageing Night Cream comes with 3 cute paper cards which has details like ingredients, how to use  and directions to use  printed on it. all the printed cards and tub is put in a cute chiffon bag which makes for a great gift . The packaging is different and adds to the natural organic feel but the  instructions could easily be lost this way . i wish the instruction labels were  punched and attched to the neck og the bottle so we wouldn't loose it that soon.
The the anti ageing cream is whitish cream in colour with thick consistency and tiny granules. Ithas subtle jasmine fragrance which  lingers on for a while and has a calming effect at night . The cream though thick gets easily absorbed into skin with light massaging and  leaves my face soft and supple without even a hint of greasy or stickiness.
The results are pretty instant and just after about 2 weeks of use my skin feels  bright and tighter . every morning i wake up to soft and hydrated  glowing skin and even my pigmentation  has improved. About the anti ageing thing i cant really comment much because i dont have any signs of ageing to start with. But overall this is a nice night cream which people of all ages can try.
The cream of course is a pricey affair at 675 INR but its is natural and  paraben free so I don't mind paying extra also for the results it provides the price is totally worth it. Also, I need just a little bit of cream to cover my entire face and after a months use half the tub still remains. So a tub will easily last you 2 months.
I do wish this came in a more hygienic packaging like a tube or a bottle with nozzle.

The Goods:
  • Subtle jasmine fragrance which lingers for a while
  • Makes skin soft , supple and hydrates
  • 100% Natural, SLS and Paraben free
  • Thick creamy texture which isnt greasy or sticky
  • cute packaging with small labels, chiffon bag and tub.
  • Handmade
  • Brightens skin and repairs cells
The Bads:
  • The tub packaging in unhygienic
  • Pricey (but it is natural and works great on my skin so justified )
  • Available only online
BlingSparkle Rating: ★★★★/5

Final Verdict: I am totally loving my skin these days all thanks to the Fuschia Arabian Jasmine Anti-ageing Night Cream. If you love natural and organic stuff this cream is your best night cream / anti ageing cream.
