So if you want a guide on how to make your eyes look super big, super dramatic and super sexy this is it, guys. Follow these really simple yet game-changing tricks to make your eye game perfect.

  #1 NEVER Line both your upper and lower lid with the same black eyeliner.

If you put eyeliner or kohl all around your eye it will make them look smaller. Choose between the two. Either go with an eyeliner or just with a kohl but never both.

  #4 You can use a white eyeliner or eye pencil and line your upper eyelid and also pull the line out like you would in the case of a winged eyeliner.

The only difference would be the wing of the eyeliner won’t be above your eyelid but between your two eyelids

  #5 White eyeliner or highlighter can be used to give your brow an instant lift and make your eyes dramatic.

Highlighting the arc of the brow with white eyeliner and then smudging it afterward defines your brows.

Follow the simple rule of different eyeliners for different lids and there you have it- perfection!

Coconut oil skincare miracle 3

Coconut Oil for Skin : If you want to look like a walking dream you have to trust me on this one, seriously ladies this is the best thing that could happen to your skin (after Aloe vera and Apple cider vinegar) and you can totally feel it for yourself! You will see how amazing your skin starts to look (at least mine did), after just a few days .So I decided to do this article on coconut oil and help all the ladies out there with this pro tip.

Coconut oil skincare miracle

Coconut is another one of nature’s gifts to help us maintain our beauty. Now what it really does is, it just fills in all the cracks and pores of your face and keeps everything really hydrated.

Excellent moisturizer which has antibacterial properties, and antifungal properties too. So if you have acne you can wave goodbye to those ugly BREAKOUTS.

It also replaces your dead skin with fresh new skin as it is rich in protein. So it not only keeps the acne at bay but also helps in reducing those scar marks by generating a new layer of skin.

It also contains vitamin E and what vitamin E does to your skin is no secret. It keeps you young as it has anti aging property (come on of course it’s going to keep you young, it is so full of goodness).

 Many people all over the internet claim to have benefited from it and I am one of them.

First of all, I would like to tell you what I really use coconut oil for- I use it for my double cleansing routine (if you don’t already know what that is you got to check out our article on it) . I rub it on my face and wipe it off after a minute with a damp cloth. Once I am done washing my face, I didn’t feel any sort of dryness or a lack of moisture as one usually does after a face wash.

Instead, I feel much hydrated and since I have normal skin I can totally skip the moisturizer step as my skin already feels way more moisturized without feeling sticky at all. LOVE IT!

 If you have oily skin doesn’t let this stop you from using this oil. Regardless of your skin type, it ’s going to suit you. It’s not necessary that you use it for your double cleansing routine too, though if you do you’ll be grateful (you can say thanks later) :P:P .

 It also makes a great makeup remover, uses it as a skin cream before you go off to bed, or as a scrub by adding some salts or sugar, use it as lip balm, for lightening dark circles ( check out our DIY Dark circle cream) .

To be honest I was sold the moment I knew it would lead to new generation of skin cells. If your skin keeps getting on a healthy new layer what could be greater than that, this stuff might actually be an elixir.

I got my bottle of coconut oil from south India as it’s the one place where you can get the best-unrefined coconut oil -fully natural and totally awesome. Invest in something like this and it won’t even cost you as much as your normal cleansing oil would!

Plus it has a whole lot of mind-boggling benefits, I mean it goes at least four-five layers deep within your skin. Can you imagine your cleansing oil doing that sort of a thing…no way!

I have noticed a big difference in my skin ever since I have started using this oil  ! Let me be honest, I don’t have the best skin in the world I’m pretty much struggling to get a wow glowing skin but my skin is far from any such thing. But ever since I have started using coconut oil, I think I might have a chance at it :P

This stuff is gorgeous guys, so start now and take care of your face-. It’s the only face you’ll want 10 years from now :)

DIY Orange Peel Scrub

Hey guys. As I promised, I am back with the homemade scrub series but this one is really different from the other scrubs. The ORANGE PEEL scrub is something which you can make once and store away for years!!! Yes you got it right… Years!Doesn’t matter how long you store it for its going to be like it was made yesterday. This particular scrub is really easy to make and is a dry scrub. Orange peel is great for your skin and is seen as an active ingredient in many scrubs available in the market which are too pricey. And here is the all natural alternative to it which is not only cheap but also super good as it’s made at home! You don’t even have to spend a rupee on this. All you got to do is eat those juicy oranges and keep the peels! Save ’em up guys!

Once you have a nice quantity, let it dry in the sun daily until the peels become hard as rocks and crack if pressed. The color should be an all dark brown color. Remember your peels should not be soft or easily squeezableThey should be dried till they are hard and there is no moisture left in the peels. Let them shrivel up and dry in the sun.

Once they are ready to dump them in the mixer and pulse till u get a nice powder. Pulse it according to the texture you would like your scrub to have. Just don’t make the product super fine. We need to create friction hence a rough texture would be great. Once done store it in an airtight container!

And you are done.

Whenever you want to use it just dump some into a small bowl (approx half a spoon) and soak it in a spoonful of milk. Apply this and scrub away all the impurities. Use it like you would use any of your regular scrubs. I absolutely love mine. It’s really inexpensive so you can always use it as a full body scrub too. Just mix it in your body wash or face wash and you are good to go. Use it for your elbows, knees, hands, or the whole body if you like. Just indulge in some inexpensive products and go all natural :)

silence meditation 3

How to Meditate?  : I cannot tell you the number of times and the number of people, who have advised me to start meditating. I have never been able to start this exercise! Is my mind quiet? Hell No! Do I need to quieten my mind and refocus my energies? You bet a million dollars I do. So what am I waiting for??  I really don’t have an answer to this. I have never been able to meditate..it has never been easy for me. Since I have not reaped the benefits of meditation personally, I have no driving force. I know there is a problem, symptoms are there…the solution is there…but I just cannot do anything !!

This is the discovery I have made. My very first baby step towards meditation.

It has worked for me..do this, if you are a beginner! It helped me :)

From our childhood, we are subject to various experiences good and bad. These experiences shape our outlook on life. The aim is to free your awareness. Free it from all conditioned responses, which are driven by the rules of the environment in which we have been brought up. Start by simply sitting in silence!

#The Exercise of Silence

That is all that I ask of you. Let’s begin a small exercise of unwinding ourselves and get rid of all ideas concerning meditation. Begin very simply and just sit down quietly and stay with the idea of silence.

This means we are not supposed to do anything!

And indeed there is nothing to do ! Contradict the traditional belief of meditation ,that we must do something to get into the state of meditation.

Do not watch your thoughts or concentrate on thoughts. If thoughts come let them come. Whether they will stay or go you should be nonchalant. Don’t bother about it.

If you feel alert become aware of the silence in your consciousness. But if you feel sleepy do not try to be awake and sit with your back to the wall to avoid falling- JUST DON’T TRY ANYTHING! And in this manner, all your thoughts will lose momentum and settle down. A certain hush on silence will pervade your being.

Let your mind be free of all turmoil. At the physical level, all the glands of the body will start secreting their hormones at an optimum level and hormones are the regulators of our health.All the neurosis of the mind will be brought to the surface from the unconscious mind.

 “IN SILENCE IS CREATION”

Meditation first connects you to yourself, this is the connection-that you need the most. Silence is the key to that door !

Clean and Clear Morning Energy Face Wash Purifying Apple 3

My Experience With Clean and Clear Morning Energy Face Wash Purifying Apple

Packaging: Comes in a nice cute little bottle with a flip top, different sizes are available for one to shop according to their requirements. It is very travel-friendly because of its “chotu” size and also because of the fact that it would not leak in either your purse or luggage. Very convenient to carry around.The bottle is transparent i.e. see through.

Texture and Consistency: Neither too thick nor too runny. It’s more like a gel with microbeads in it. The beads are soft and will easily mash when pressed against the skin, so it doesn’t exfoliate the skin. The beads are more like energizing beads for the skin.

Fragrance: It has a very refreshing fragrance of fresh Green Apples, ideal for a morning face wash as it has a pleasant smell that will help you feel fresh all day long, also the smell doesn’t linger for long.

Experience: I’ve had a very pleasant experience using this face wash because it works like an instant dose of refreshment for my skin.

It does an excellent job of removing the daily oil and dirt from the face without overly drying the skin. Also, it smells amazing and gives a good kick start to the morning. It also removes makeup from the face gently without making my skin dry and stretchy, but if your skin is dry you might want to follow up this face wash with a moisturizer. It’s a decent buy for a good everyday face wash.

Lakme Sun Expert Fairness + UV Lotion SPF 50 PA+++ 2

Lakme Sun Expert Fairness + UV Lotion SPF 50 PA+++ Review: What should one look for in a good sunscreen?? A good amount of SPF and that Lightweight feel! Lately, my schedule has forced me to shift from my regular Spf 30 to Spf 50 which is perfect if you are exposed to prolonged sun exposure. Thus began the quest for an affordable sunscreen and yet something that would feel Lightweight for everyday use. I came across Lakme Sun Expert Fairness + UV Lotion SPF 50 PA+++ which I grabbed at an online sale and since then it’s been a holy grail!

Price and Quantity

INR 580 for 100 ml

INR 280 for 50 ml

How To Use

Dot across the face and gently massage.

Ingredients

Zinc oxide, Ethyl Hexylmethoxy Cinnamate, Lemongrass & Cucumber Extracts

My Experience With Lakme Sun Expert Fairness + UV Lotion SPF 50 PA+++

Packaging- A very bright sunny yellow colored tube which instantly screams Sunscreeeeeen! I can spot it even if it is buried under a mini mountain of all other tubs and tubes :P

A flip top cover that shuts nicely and I can easily carry it around.

Texture and Consistency- The sunscreen comes in a stark white color which is not too dense and yet thick enough.

Fragrance- A very faint smell of talcum powder or slightly aqua smell is detected which lingers on for sometime after application and smells pleasant.

Experience- Now what do we want from a good everyday sunscreen? A high SPF (yes for me at least) and Lightweight formula! You just can’t manage things if you go about 9 to 5 with a blankety feeling on your skin- I have this strong urge to just wash my face and feel free. I was looking for a good budget friendly sunscreen with high SPF when this pretty baby came handy. The sunscreen has a matte finish on the application and no shine was detected once it was absorbed through the skin. The formula is what has forced me to finish up the entire tube, its super lightweight and absorbs real quick too. There is a slight white tinge left behind which fades in just a matter of 10-15 mins which is good enough for me. Due to its lightweight formula and Matte finish, it is ideal for summers and for layering makeup too, serves as a good base. I have normal skin and this feels slightly moisturizing to me too and sometimes I feel I can just go out with this and nothing to top it off no setting powder or anything because it mattifies the skin and makes the skin texture smooth. The high SPF makes it a complete winner when it comes to going out for long durations in the sun  ☀ and I’m sticking to this one till I find something that beats this ( though the competition is hard I’ll keep searching) :P

Little quantity is needed to dot the entire face and it spreads nicely without making your skin look like an oil factory :)

Patanjali Saundarya Multani Mitti Face Scrub

What is the one basic thing that you look for when you are on the lookout for a scrub? A scrub that actually SCRUBS! The basic thing which makes a scrub a scrub is the amount and type of grains it has for scrubbing the dead skin off. If the amount of the granules is less or they aren’t gritty enough we’ll the scrub isn’t just going to do the job! I have put the Patanjali Multani mitti scrub to the test and read on to know why it is a fail.

Patanjali Saundarya Multani Mitti Face Scrub

Price and Quantity

INR 75 for 50g

How To Use

Apply on wet face, massage gently in a circular motion all over the face and wash with water.

My Experience With Patanjali Multani Mitti Face Scrub

Packaging- The tube is a transparent one which makes it super easy to see how much quantity is left inside. The cover is a flip top one which is leak proof and the tube is sleek and small enough to carry around.

Texture and Consistency- The scrub has a soapy texture and is creamy. If observed carefully the scrub is a little sticky too.

Fragrance- This is ugh! The scrub smells like some cheap jasmine perfume that reeks with a sweetness that can give you a headache with one sniff!

Experience- The scrub was an attraction to me because in the first place it was a Multani mitti scrub and like all products that have mud, I was drawn to this one too but I was highly disappointed when I couldn’t detect any heavenly scent of fresh mud instead I was welcomed with a super sweet stench which I absolutely despised and gave me a headache !

This is the only reason I couldn’t use it frequently so I just gave up on this product.

The product is nowhere near to being called a scrub there are hardly any granules in the product. Very sparse distribution of beads hence the exfoliation or the gritty feel is absent. Unlike other scrubs that are creamy, this one produces a huge lather like some soapy facewash! The base of the scrub is a soap one and the more you massage your face with it the more lather it generates! I feel terrible saying this but it’s pretty much useless as a scrub.

But hey all is not lost the product does other things hence I don’t consider it a waste. It serves as a really nice facewash though. Generates the largest amount of lather, sucks out all the oil from your pores making your skin completely free of every ounce of oil and giving your face a shine free look for a few hours. I used it for a week straight despite the smell to check the performance and I would say it is excellent for anyone who has oily skin or has pimples due to the presence of clay. My skin felt smoother and softer with use and it wasn’t even drying on the skin but skin felt supremely clean after wash :)

Patanjali Saundarya Multani Mitti Face Scrub 3

Patanjali Saundarya Multani Mitti Face Scrub 4

Pros –

  1. As A Scrub (NONE)
  2. As A Facewash Many!
  3. Lathers Well
  4. Takes All The Oil Off
  5. Good Enough For Dissolving Makeup
  6. Skin Feels Softer And Smoother

Cons-

  1. Negligible Amount Of Granules
  2. Soap Base
  3. The Ugly Smell! Yuck! Terribly Sweeeet!

Would I Repurchase and Recommend ?

I would only recommend this to people who aren’t expecting it to work as a scrub but rather as a facewash. People who have oily skin and pimples can use this product for softer smoother and oil-free skin but DONT EXPECT IT TO SCRUB!

Rating- 1(as a scrub)

Otherwise a nice useable facewash.

The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam Acerola

The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam Acerola Review: K-beauty and skincare have taken the market by a storm and who aren’t going after them! Everything from facial cleanser to even makeup is lined up in a row and what has made it easier is that some of these Korean brands have been exclusively launched on Amazon and nykaa at affordable local rates which avoids all the hassle of ordering from sites that charge customs duty and what not.A cleanser is one of the most basic steps of our skincare routine and I was attracted to this pretty tube of The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam Acerola.

The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam Acerola

Basic Information About The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam Acerola

Price and Quantity

INR 300 for 170 ml

How To Use

Apply on wet face and massage with a circular motion. Rinse with lukewarm water.

For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep out of the reach of children. Do not use on irritated skin. Discontinue use if irritation and/or rash appear.

My Experience With The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam Acerola

Packaging- The tube is actually quite bulky and thick. It has a flip top cover which I feel doesn’t close very tightly. It easily opens, however, I’m not sure if it would stay shut when I travel. Also, the tube is too bulky to carry around in your purse or while traveling. It is cleanser which might spend its life sitting in your bathroom cabinet.

Texture and Consistency- The face wash comes in a thick creamy foam which doesn’t drip. The face wash is quite dense and looks white with a tinge of pink in it.

Fragrance- I love the beautiful fruity tangy fragrance of this facewash. Really refreshing.

Experience- I have since long craved facewashes that are foamy and produce huge lather. Until that happens a facewash doesn’t really give me that satisfaction. The facial foams from the entire face shop range are known for their lather and creamy base. The flip top cover was easy to open and all you need is a small blob of this face wash and I would suggest that you Wet your face before the facewash and start massaging with this cleansing foam. It generates a thick white creamy lather that feels smooth against your skin while massaging and engulfs your senses with its beautiful fragrance that feels so good early in the morning or after a tiring day.

The face wash has acerola as its key ingredient which is rich in vitamin c and is known for giving your a brightened look. Since the facewash lathers well it is very effective in taking off any heavy makeup too which is absolutely perfect. It just can’t take off glitter that well though.

Not only this it is very easy to wash off and two splashes of water and your skin is squeaky clean and it actually gives you an instant bright look. It is also effective in keeping my face oil free for a good few hours, without a stretchy feel.

The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam Acerola 3

Overall Performance of The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam Acerola

Pros –
  1. Amazing lather
  2. Sturdy tube
  3. Beautiful fragrance
  4. A little is required for one use
  5. One tube can last you months
  6. Removes oil without any stretchy feel
  7. Instant brightening effect
  8. Removes makeup effectively
  9. Easy to wash off too
Cons-
  1. None other than the size of the tube which is not travel-friendly. A smaller size would have been appreciated.
Would I Repurchase and Recommend?

Absolutely yes. This is a skin cleanser suitable for all skin types and I would advise everyone out there to use this once and feel how nice and bright it leaves your skin :) yes I would repurchase it too.

Sunsilk Hairfall Solution Shampoo 1

Sunsilk Hairfall Solution Shampoo: Now, who doesn’t face hair fall nowadays? Maybe there are some lucky ones out there but then the rest of us Humanly beings :P mostly suffer from hair fall and the idea of going bald or being a thin-haired person isn’t exactly something you would have on your wishlist. A shampoo somehow plays a very important role in making or making your hair. As for me, I am always on the lookout for more and more hair fall products so that I stumble on a stellar product someday and save mankind :P

Let’s see how the Sunsilk Hairfall Solution Shampoo went for me.

Sunsilk Hairfall Solution Shampoo 1

Price and Quantity

INR 110 for 180 ml INR 200 for 340 ml

How To Use
  1. Rinse your hair with water.
  2. Apply a coin-sized amount of shampoo. Lather. Wash using a rotating finger motion to nourish and cleanse pores.
  3. Rinse with running water till all shampoo is washed off.

My Experience With Sunsilk Hairfall Solution Shampoo

Packaging- The shampoo comes in a bottle which is rather slim and shapely. The top is a flip top one which is my personal favorite kind. You can always go for the second helpings easily in between the shower.

Texture and Consistency- The texture of the shampoo is rather runny and it looks really pretty being a pearlish colored liquid.

Sunsilk Hairfall Solution Shampoo 4

Fragrance- The fragrance factor is quite mild and is a lovely girly smell. Despite being mild it stays on after the wash for 2 days.

Experience- The shampoo doesn’t produce a lot of lather, it somehow provides just sufficient amount of lather but it’s not the kind that just makes a foam party in your hair. :P set adequate enough to clean. The shampoo can be rinsed out quite easily and I noticed how soft my hair felt after the first wash. I made my mom try this as well because people usually have hair fall problem when they are at this age and she and I have shared similar views on the shampoo.

The shampoo claims to be a hairball shampoo but it doesn’t really target hair fall from the root. I think it acts well on the breakage of hair that some of us face from the length of our hair but it controls hair fall only to a minimal extent which is would say is 20% of the total hair fall amount. The shampoo makes your hair considerably soft so its a lot easier to just comb through your hair and the lesser the tugging and pulling the lesser is the hair fall

Pros –
  1. Controls hair breakage
  2. Affordable
  3. Available in different sizes so travel-friendly
  4. Reduces hair fall up to 2 times
  5. Hair feels smoother
  6. Cleanses well
  7. Easy to wash off
Cons-
  1. Claims of reducing hair fall up to 10 times aren’t exactly true
  2. Doesn’t control hair fall from roots rather focuses on breakage.
Would I repurchase and recommend?

Well, I would recommend this for someone who is looking for a shampoo that makes your hair soft and reduces breakage. As for me, I would rather not go for seconds as I wasn’t exactly wowed!

Biotique Advanced Fairness Facewash

Biotique Advanced Fairness Face wash: I have been hoarding all the Biotique products that I can get a hold on and I am especially in love with all their face washes. The Biotique face wash range has around 6 face washes and I adore all the 5 that I have used. Not only this but also I keep recommending them to friends and family and they are equally delighted with their purchase. EASY on the pockets and BEAUTIFUL on the skin! So today I will be reviewing a face wash from their range the Biotique Advanced Fairness Face Wash.

Biotique Advanced Fairness Facewash

HOW TO USE

Gently massage over wet face & neck with fingertips, lather & rinse, morning and evening.

PRICE AND QUANTITY-
  1. Rs 55 for 50 ml
  2. Rs 100 for 100 ml
  3. Rs 135 for 150 ml

My Experience with the Biotique Bio White Advanced Fairness Face Wash

FRAGRANCE

The face wash has a mild plant smell that doesn’t smell like anything in particular. Once you go on lathering the face wash you will see that there is a faint leafy smell about it. Smells natural enough anyway!

TEXTURE

The face wash might look slightly pink in color but it is really like a transparent gel if you check the hand swatch. Quite bubbly too. The face wash is a bit too runny for me.

Biotique Advanced Fairness Facewash 4

PACKAGING

I love the big sturdy tube of this face wash. As you guys can see it has a flip top cover, the most common and yet sensible top found in face washes. This one closes shut quite nicely and I have carried it around quite a lot while traveling but never did it leak or spoil my bag.

EXPERIENCE

This face wash has a very runny texture and I actually need a decent amount to cover my full face and create some sort of lather. Now if I talk about the lathering part, it doesn’t create any lather at all, probably because its 100% soap free which is a good thing but then you shouldn’t expect it to create all that lovely foam for you. If you go ahead and take a nice quantity, it becomes all slippery and you might see a few bubbles forming here and there but that’s just about it.

Once you wash it off, you will feel that there is still some residue left behind. I keep washing it off and then I feel as if I want to wash some more (yes this is one of those face washes).  However, it leaves the skin absolutely cleansed and once you wipe off you won’t see any of it left behind.

Now if I talk about the results, well it did make my skin *BRIGHTER*! I wouldn’t really give it credit for making me fairer but yes it did impart a certain glow to the face making it look brighter. However, I do so wish it had a crème texture rather than a gel one. The best part of it is that it has a whole lot of natural stuff loaded in there and there is nothing synthetic about it.

I think this a great face wash for young teens and people in their early twenties who would like a perfect chemical free fairness face wash and this one is actually making you look a bit brighter.

I just wish the lather was better.
