Treats from Soap Square !!

Washing your face with the wrong kind of products can leave your face looking dull, wrinkled and tired. And this includes soap. Most of the soaps cannot be used on face because of the harsh chemicals present in them. While most soaps, that claim to be safe works perfectly well for the rest of your body, it might not suit your sensitive/acne prone skin type. Skin on your face is very delicate and can easily start looking damaged if proper products are not used. Last soap I remember using on my face was Clinique Soap which didn’t work for my face and I stopped using it halfway.

Two weeks back I received these handmade goodness from Soap Square. Soap Square is a organic and natural brand which make luxury handcrafted soaps.

Soap Square make the soaps with careful consideration for your skin’s needs using essential oils, glycerin and natural ingredients. These vegetarian soaps contain real fruit extracts and no parabens or petrochemicals were used in their production. You can choose from the wide variety of 100% herbal soaps to pamper your skin with!

In this post, I am reviewing 2 of the soaps I received – Peppermint with Aloe butter & French Lavender with Shea butter

Fake a night of your beauty sleep with Clinique Pep Start Eye Cream

Girls, I have dark circles under my eyes which are hereditary. The area underneath my eyes are more of bluish than dark. I cannot step out of my house without a good moisturiser as the area around my eyes always look very tired if I skip a moisturiser. Similarly, Concealing the area under my eyes is very important for me even if I skip the rest of the makeup.

I prefer a HD liquid concealer or a cream based concealer that is very long lasting. Often it tends to make my under eye area really really dry. I was in the hunt of a good hydrating eye cream that can be worn under my makeup. I was using Bobbi Brown Hydrating Eye cream prior to this and I loved it. When I finished it I was planning to get another tub of it. That was when Clinique sent me this newly launched Pep-Start Eye Cream.

Trilogy is one of my favorite brand and none of the products have ever failed on me.  I recently took up a new job role that requires a lot of travelling. In my busy life, I give equal importance to my CTM routine. Considering the amount of damage your skin is going through everyday, it’s very crucial to properly cleanse and nourish your skin with the right product for a healthy skin. After removing my makeup using my favorite cleansing balms/cleansing oils. I usually double cleanse and massage my damp face using my mirenesse pebblesonic cleanser / a face cleansing brush and a gentle face wash. I love the multi-tasking products that I can use for my skincare routine.

Trilogy offers a natural alternative with fruit enzymes to cleanse your face to reveal a more even, brighter complexion. After I emptied my tube of Balancing Gel Cleanser, I started using this Trilogy Age-Proof Active Enzyme Cleansing Cream.This doubles up as a cleanser and a face wash. IMG_8548 (more…)

Any makeupholic would be familiar with BB creams aka beauty balms or blemish balms. This multitasking cream originated first from Asia and is now available in every beauty store.

BB cream are skincare/makeup all rounder product the gives adequate hydration as that of moisturizer, coverage as that of a sheer foundation and, in some cases, the sun protection of a sunscreen.

How is it different from a tinted moisturizer?

The texture of BB cream is creamier than most tinted moisturizers and BB creams tend to provide more coverage than tinted moisturizers (still less than foundations).

In today’s post I am reviewing 2 BB creams from Oasis Beauty. I was sent two shades from the range, Monroe & Hepburn

–BB Cream Monroe is best suited to light/medium skin tones and offers full coverage with a matte finish
–BB Cream Hepburn is best suited to medium/dark skin tones and offers full coverage with a matte finish

Trilogy Certified Organic Rosehip Oil | Review

Ever wondered how is “Rosehip Oil” made?  Rosehip oil is derived from roses. Manufacturers press and extract the oil from wild rose bushes and then add the oil to skin care products or sell it by itself. The oil is a fabulous component of your skin care routine because it is full of beauty-boosting vitamin A, vitamin C and the essential fatty acids omega-3 and omega-6.

Rosehip oil has a number of  beauty benefits for the skin, hair and nails. Unlike natural shea oil or cocoa butter,  Rosehip oil tends to absorb quickly  on skin providing a mess-free application. If you add rosehip oil to your skin care routine, you can expect some miraculous results. Rosehip Oil skincare benefits include pigmentation reduction, improved compelxion, skin rejuvenation etc.

I first heard about “Rosehip Oil” from my friend Nishu of Lips N Berries blog. She rave so much about the benefits of rosehip oil and she have a gorgeous skin..touchwood…Thanks to the Trilogy Team and Bare PR to send me this miraculous product, Certified Organic Rosehip Oil.  4 weeks back from this date, my skin looked terrible with lot of breakouts. I honestly don’t know why my skin was in such a bad condition. That’s when trilogy came to rescue. I decided to use all trilogy products for my skincare. You can read my full skincare routine here
