Givenchy Le Rouge Lipstick – Magnolia Organza

Hey all lovely people!!! Today I am going to review Givenchy Le Rouge Lipstick in Magnolia Organza. Since warmer weather is here to stay for some more time, my regular lip stash is filled with bright shades. The colors range from pinks, reds, corals, oranges and even purples. But, there is something so tempting about shades with mixed tones that I get bored of plain one-dimensional colors, however pretty they are. Yes, I am a spoilt woman!! 😉 Givenchy Le Rouge Lipstick in Magnolia Organza is one such lipstick that has such beautiful mix of shades that you just can’t get over it.

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

Removing all the makeup and  clean your face off properly at the end of each day is very important.. Cleansing the skin each day will purify your pores and reduce the likelihood of waking up with bad acne in the morning. I was using makeup remover wipes until now along with MAC cleanse off Oil. After finishing MAC,  I wanted to try a different makeup remover.

Micellar water has become the latest launch in the arena of make-up removal – used by make-up artists. Micellar water promises to thoroughly cleanse the skin, even removing stubborn mascara, eye make-up, theater makeup, without drying the skin or irritating sensitive faces and eyes, thanks to the presence of ‘surfactant’ molecules rather than alcohol. The Holy Grail of micellar waters is Bioderma. Now, I haven’t used Bioderma. So, I can’t compare it with this. But I have used Simple Micellar water which works quite nice! In this review, I will be taking about my experiences using this pocket friendly Micellar Cleansing Water from Garnier. I got this from Warehouse NZ for 12.99 $NZD. Now, there are 2 variants of this. One with a green lid and other is this one. Green is perfect for oily skin.

Today I’ll be doing a review of one of their best sellers and one of my favorite cleansers– Angels on Bare Skin Cleanser.IMG_1793 (more…)

#Juicy Chemistry Choco Mint Lip Scrub

I love matte lipsticks a lot and the main problem I found with most of the matte finished lipsticks is that it make the lip area really very dry. Everybody hate chapped lips. We need to scrub the dead layers off our skin to maintain smooth and young-looking skin. The same applies to the lips. We must scrub exterior layer of our lips to make keep smooth and kissable lips. In today’s post I going to review the Choco Mint Lip Scrub from Juicy Chemistry.

hi dolls…let me start this review by asking a question…Do you girls really care about packaging when buying beauty products. hmmmmmm…Yeah, I know majority would say “NO”. For me; I do look at the packaging especially if its a gift set or a value pack. I would see if the packaging is also cute enough to be gifted to someone or is the basket/the case reusable…In today’s review I am going to show you girls a very pretty metallic box with 5 creamy eyeliner pencils. I received it as part of one of those Memeboxes. Sadly, Memebox stopped shipping outside of US.. :weep 🙁 Nevermind, I got some really dreamy products from my past memeboxes. (more…)
