Nykaa jhumki

My experience with Nykaa Jhumki

Packaging

Comes in a square transparent bottle packaging with a doe foot applicator (a spongy pointed applicator which helps you in applying gloss and lipsticks). Its twist up, black cap shuts tight and is quite sturdy.

Texture/Consistency

It’s a liquid lipstick, which is runny in texture. After a while it sets matte. The single dip of lip color is good enough for the entire lips.

Fragrance

Has sweet mild fragrance, most lipsticks have such artificial fragrances.

Ease of Application

I am not fond of doe foot applicators. But let me tell you these applicators are bendable and much easy to work with. Though, as a personal preference, nothing beats bullet lipsticks when it comes to ease.

Effectiveness

So as a liquid lipstick I will give full marks to it. It just sets matte and settles in fine lines. Stays for 3-4 hours and survives oily food. After 3-4 hours it starts fading in an even manner. Unlike few lipsticks which fade from corners or middle.

My Experience

The shade Jhumki is my MLBB (my lip but better). I am in love with this shade. It looks so natural. I have applied this shade with and without a balm. So with a balm, it didn’t transfer and without a balm, it did transfer a bit. In an emergency, you can wear it without a lip balm as well. It doesn’t feel stretchy or dry to an extent where it retrains lip movement (yeah many lip colors do that). ? I prefer wearing it with a balm because I feel a girls’ lips must never be dry.

Overall performance of Nykaa Jhumki

Pros
  1. Sets matte
  2. Doesn’t transfers
  3. Doesn’t makes lips condition worse
  4. Looks great on wheatish skin tone
  5. Has sweet fragrance
  6. Survives oily meals
  7. Has vibrant lip shades in the range
  8. Good packaging
Cons
  1. Settles in fine lines
Would I repurchase/recommend?

Yes, to both. If I will find a similar shade in  a creamy matte formula then I will switch to it. Especially recommended for daily/office wear.

Maybelline Eye + Lip Makeup Remover

Who is it for? Maybelline Eye + Lip Makeup Remover is for those who are looking for a strong makeup remover, which even removes waterproof makeup.

Price

115/- for 40 ml

Sensitivity Alert?

No

How To Use?
  1. Shake the bottle well
  2. Pour few drops on a cotton swab
  3. Wipe off the makeup with the soaked cotton
  4. Use more swabs if any pigmentation is left
  5. Wash it off with a face wash, and tone your skin later.

Maybelline Eye + Lip Makeup Remover

My experience with Maybelline Eye + Lip Makeup Remover

Packaging

It comes in a small transparent plastic bottle. Its size is comparatively small than any other makeup remover or micellar water. Its quite sturdy and easy to carry.

Texture/Consistency

It’s runny like water and easily glides on without any hassle. It has few droplets of oil as well which is blue in colour. Which settles on the top layer. So always shake before using it.

Fragrance

Has no fragrance.

Ease of Application

Well honestly, it’s my first makeup remover. And I am highly impressed with the way it turned out. It’s so easy and you don’t have put in any extra effort to get off the makeup.

Effectiveness

Just one or two swipes and you are done. So I must say it is highly effective even on strong formulas.

My Experience

I am completely drooling over this one. My life has become so much easier. What I love about it is, that it doesn’t dry up skin quick. Has no ill effect on the skin. Doesn’t clogs pores or gives breakout. Even waterproof strong formulas come off 80% in just one swipe. You will use another swab just to get off the remaining tits and bits of pigments. On applying it on the skin you feel slight warm sensation but that just lasts for seconds and is mild enough for most of you to not notice it.

Overall performance of Maybelline Eye + Lip Makeup Remover

Pros
  1. Gives no breakout
  2. Effective in getting off strong waterproof formulas
  3. Doesn’t dries out skin
  4. Easy to use
  5. Travel-friendly
Cons
  1. None
Would I repurchase/recommend?

Hell yes! Must pick for beginners.

Engage Drizzle Deo

Engage Drizzle Deo Review

by Prachi Singh

Who is it for? Engage Drizzle Deo is for those who are looking for a refreshing pocket-friendly deo. Which has both floral and musk tones to it?

Price

190/- for 165ml

Sensitivity Alert?

Yes, may cause irritation on sensitive skin.

How To Use?
  1. Pull the cap
  2. Press the pump dispenser
  3. And spray it on your clothes (don’t apply directly on your body alcohol may darken the area)

Engage Drizzle Deo

My experience with Engage Drizzle Deo

Packaging

Comes in a sturdy silver metal packaging with grey cap. It’s quite travel friendly. Cute graphics is printed on all over the body of the packaging.

Texture/Consistency

Contains no gas at all. And is colourless, if you apply it by keeping it too close to the fabric, then it leaves wet colourless stain which evaporates quick.

Fragrance

Fresh floral fragrance dominates the top notes. And a bit hint of musk on lower notes. It instantly gives a refreshing feel and boosts your mood. On a sunny day it is calming to wear. Such fragrance is loved by both sex. It has no sweet smell to it, so its apt for both men and women.

Ease of Application

No hassle at all. It’s quite easy-peezy.

Effectiveness

The fragrance doesn’t linger for long. Just after an hour of application, it starts fading away. After 3-4 hours it fades away completely.

My Experience

I don’t have a strong odor so I can swear by this one just by applying it once. But if you have a strong odor or you will go for some cardio activity then, pick a strong deo. On days when I need to travel, I keep a pocket perfume and don’t really rely on it. Its fragrance is moderate, not strong enough to give you a headache. I have a sensitive nose so can’t really cope with a strong fragrance. For some reason, my nose starts to itch, but not with this one. So since years now I am sticking by this one.

Overall performance of Engage Drizzle Deo

Pros
  1. Doesn’t cause headache
  2. Has a refreshing fragrance
  3. Has muskiness too.
  4. Easy to carry and use
  5. No gas
Cons
  1. Has alcohol
  2. Doesn’t stay for long
Would I repurchase/recommend?

Yes, but purchase only if you are looking for something moderate.

Wet N Wild Calling Your Buff Kohl Liner Pencil

Who is it for? Wet N Wild Calling Your Buff Kohl Liner Pencil Shade is for those who are looking for a natural looking alternative of white kajal to widen their eyes.

Price

135/-

Sensitivity Alert?

No

How To Use?

For eyelids:

Apply on your eyelids, from inner to the outer corner of your eyes.

For brows:

Enhance the look of your brows by filling in your brows first and then enhancing it with a nude kajal.

Wet N Wild Calling Your Buff Kohl Liner Pencil

My experience with Wet N Wild Calling Your Buff Kohl Liner Pencil

Packaging

Color-coded pencil packaging comes with a transparent cap. It has no sharpener, which is a drawback. It’s handy and easy to locate. As it’s color-coded, even if you have kept it in a messy way.

Texture/Consistency

It’s creamy and glides without tugging, though you need to apply 2-3 strokes.

Fragrance

Has weird artificial fragrance. Clearly, you can’t sniff it easily. It ain’t impactful.

Ease of Application

You can easily draw lines and work at your own ease.

Effectiveness

It instantly adds life to your eyes and gives an illusion of bigger, awakened and fresh eyes. I tried hiding a light spot with it. And it completely nailed it.

My Experience

I bet each one of you need it right now in your vanity! If not this one, then at least a better quality nude kajal. I didn’t realize what I was missing on until I tried this one. It delivers maximum pigments in just one swipe. Still, I apply 2-3 coats just out of habit or maybe to build up. It vouches to stay for 12 hrs. But stays only for 2-3 hours and then sort of budges and blends in with the skin. And I do have oily lids so maybe it stays little less on my lids. Smudging is not a problem with this particular shade, because it blends into the skin and looks even more natural. I haven’t tried other shades.

Lighter shades always gave me an impression of cheap quality! For some reasons. Even in the case of shadows the same theory works! But this one clearly outperformed the threshold of my perception. It is my best buy of the month! ❤️

Overall performance of Wet N Wild Calling Your Buff Kohl Liner Pencil

Pros
  1. Creamy texture
  2. Rich in pigments
  3. Delivers maximum pigments in just one swipe
  4. Doesn’t budges easily
  5. Super affordable
  6. Bright awakened look
  7. Instantly adds a freshness to your looks
  8. Multi-tasker
  9. Hides small spots too
  10. Stays for good 2-3 hours (yes, at this price to can’t ask for the universe)
  11. Waterproof
Cons
  1. None
Would I repurchase/recommend?

Hell yes, go get it now. You definitely need this right now! Don’t disappoint me by not purchasing it. Highly recommended for those with dark circles (time to not look like a drug addict bub)

Anatomicals Deep Cleaning Mud Mask

Who is it for? Anatomicals Deep Cleaning Mud Mask is for those who want an extremely deep cleaning mask, that strips off all the oil from your skin.

Price

135/- for 15ml

Sensitivity Alert?

Dries up your skin.

How To Use?
  1. Apply this mask on a clean face
  2. Let is stay until it dries
  3. Rinse off with cold water

Anatomicals Deep Cleaning Mud Mask

My experience with Anatomicals Deep Cleaning Mud Mask

Packaging

It’s a one-time sachet of peach color with ” Anatomicals farewell the scarlet pimplehell deep cleansing mud mask” printed on it. It has all the necessary info about the mask. I would say that anatomicals packaging is extremely appealing and handy.

Texture/Consistency

Has muddy texture, like most clay mask have. But it’s slightly darker in color. I remember my mom got clay mud from the river bank of Ganges, it’s much similar to this mask.

Fragrance

Has refreshing aqua, but artificial fragrance. Which slowly fades away. Doesn’t lingers at all after cleaning it.

Ease of Application

You can use a brush or fingers to spread this mask.

I use a brush, and spread it all over my face in thick layer.

Let it stay until it dries out.

Wash off with cold water.

Effectiveness

As a pimple mask, this is a major miss out. Though it deep cleanses your skin. So it is more of a precautionary thing than a cure. But you may construe it as a pimple cure mask, as it is touted as a farewell the pimplehell, so the pimple must there to give a farewell right? But that’s just my personal interpretation.

My Experience

Not a satisfactory experience, you won’t want a one time pack at more than 100 bucks and not get any results. If it is a one time or two-time pack then the result must be instant. Or should be made available in a different kind of packaging too. It gives a burning sensation on application, which fades away after 5 minutes. This mask dries up in 20 minutes approx. after cleaning your face. You will feel light, oil-free. Your skin will look matte and pores will reduce in appearance (But wait, won’t any other mud pack deliver that? I mean that is what mud packs are for! I can name a lot of them which come in a monthly tube and are reasonably priced). After the water dries up, your skin starts feeling stretchy. Which I hate. Not all mud masks do that. So I definitely am very unhappy with how this turned out.

Overall performance of Anatomicals Deep Cleaning Mud Mask

Pros
  1. Fragrance
  2. Tightens pores
Cons
  1. Not value for money
  2. Gives flaky skin
  3. Feels stretchy
  4. Doesn’t delivers its claims
  5. Does no good to pimples
Would I repurchase/recommend?

No, never! You can do without it.

Oily skin beauties here’s an advice. You don’t want a mask that strips off natural oils from your skin. Because that will only produce more oil. So don’t go for this pack, not even once in 6 months. Your skin deserves better.

Wet N Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Single Panther

Who is it for? Wet N Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Single Panther is for those who are looking for a jet black, matte eyeshadow single pallete.

Price

135/-

Sensitivity alert?

No

How to use
  1. Use this eye shadow to create smokey eye look;
  2. Apply this shade on the outer corner of your eyes; blend in with an eyeshadow blending brush;
  3. Go in from dark to light from outer to inner corners;
  4. You can also apply on the lower lash line. Instead of a kajal.

Wet N Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Single Panther

My experience with Wet N Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Single Panther

Packaging

It comes in a tiny black and transparent pallete. It’s neither too sturdy nor too flimsy. You won’t break the kit while traveling. It shuts absolutely tight. Also, the quantity of shadow is good.

Texture/consistency

It’s a powder eyeshadow which has finely milled powder. It’s not one of those dry, chalky powders. But is bit moist and has silky feel to it. Doesn’t not falls off much while applying.

Fragrance

Has no smell at all.

Ease of application

This builds up easily, there is no hassle at all. You can blend it easily with your fingers as well.

Effectiveness

It delivers a good amount of pigments in one swipe. Though, I will say the shade is buildable. I love this shade, jet blacks make me go weak on my knees.

My experience

I am crushing over this shadow. Though, I am not really a shadow person. It is more of an occasional thing for me. This shadow blends in quick don’t not settle in fine lines or exaggerate flakiness on the skin (But, it is always recommended to moisturize and prime your eyes before putting up shadow). I also use this instead of a kajal on the Lower lash line. It has a very impressive stay and doesn’t fades away or looks dull after application. Doesn’t even wash off on splashing water. So it is a bombshell in teensy packaging.

Overall performance of Wet N Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Single Panther

Pros
  1. Finely milled powder
  2. Doesn’t settle in fine lines
  3. Is not too powdery
  4. Doesn’t fall off a lot after applying
  5. No fragrance at all
  6. Delivers good pigmentation
  7. Stay is good
  8. Doesn’t budges easily
Cons
  1. Packaging could have been more sturdy
Would I recommend/repurchase?

Yes, in near future will love to more shades from the range. A great pick for beginners.

by Prachi Singh

Khadi Olive Oil

My experience with Khadi Olive Oil

Packaging

Comes in transparent packaging, much like typical khadi packaging. It does not travel friendly at all, as the product spills. It is Available in two sizes 100 ml and 210 ml variant.

Texture/Consistency

Olive oils which I have used before were of much thicker consistency. This one seems more fluid and light. It sinks easily into the skin and nourishes it deeply.

Fragrance

Has an extremely mild smell of olive, you really need to sniff closely to get a hint of smell. Generally, olive oils have a strong and unpleasant smell.

Ease of Application

The oil comes off from the bottle very easily, you don’t need to squeeze it. Just take the appropriate quantity and massage.

Effectiveness

It is a very effective hair oil. My hair has never felt so nourished, hair fall has also noticeably decreased.

Though, it may worsen your skin condition. Definitely, it is not recommended for oily or combination skin. As a body oil as well this clogs pores.

My Experience

I am loving the way my hair feels after I have strated using this oil. It feels slightly heavy but then, you can see the effect the next day when you shampoo. My hair has never felt so soft and smooth. Can’t really keep my fingers off my hair (not a good habit though).

I have tried using it in “n” number of ways on my skin. But it always was a huge disappointment. My pores clogged, I got acne the very next day. On legs as well I got breakouts.

Overall performance of Khadi Olive Oil

Pros
  1. Makes hair frizz free
  2. Adds shine to it
  3. Decreases hairfall
  4. Available in another size variant too
  5. Doesn’t smell tacky
Cons
  1. Gives icky feeling
  2. Clogs pores
  3. Feels heavy on scalp and face
  4. Not for combination and oily prone skin
  5. Not travel-friendly
Would I repurchase/recommend?

Yes, but only for oiling my hair.

Rating 5/5 as hair oil and negative points as a face and body oil.

Miss Claire Waterproof Eyebrow Pencil With Mascara Brush

Price

INR 125/-

Sensitivity Alert?

No, even though it has truckloads of chemicals.

How To Use?
  1. Brush your brows with the spoolie first;
  2. Fill in your eyebrow, starting from the middle of your brow;
  3. Slowly move forward, in small and upwards stroke;
  4. Now brush with the spoolie;
  5. Repeat the process;
  6. Make sure you go in the direction of hair growth.

My experience with Miss Claire Waterproof Eyebrow Pencil With Mascara Brush

Packaging

It Comes in a pencil stick form, which is secured by a cap on both ends. On one end it has a mascara brush and on the other, it has color pencil. There’s nothing extravagant about the packaging. It’s just a basic eyebrow pencil. And doesn’t comes with a sharper too!

Texture/Consistency

Its consistency is neither creamy nor powdery or chalky. This one has just the right texture for eyebrow pencils. Shade Dark brown 02 is perfect for Indian skin tone. It gives a natural finish, my brows don’t seem like its overdone.

Fragrance

Has a chemical fragrance.

Ease of Application

Full marks on application. Blend and fill in is the trick. I always prefer brow pencils, its much easy to work with.

Effectiveness

It Doesn’t fade or budges away after hours of application. It does make a difference in your brows, unlike some pencils which just doesn’t show up on the face. Those who have very fine brows may find it essentially helpful.

My Experience

So, I don’t just swear by this one, as my hair strands are fine and lighter in shade. Either I fill it with a powder or use a Mascara after shaping it. On days when I just wear this one, then I sort of feel that my brows doesn’t get that fuller look. My brow has gaps, so just the pencil is not enough. But it does shape brows well, so first I line my brows with it and then add the final touch with a brow powder. I loved working with the spoolie attached to it, (Always ensure you have brushed your brows before shaping it)

Overall performance of Miss Claire Waterproof Eyebrow Pencil With Mascara Brush

Pros
  1. Gives natural look
  2. Has right sort of consistency
  3. Doesn’t budges away
  4. Is a great pick for beginners
  5. Apt for Indian skin tone
  6. Handy Packaging
  7. Doesn’t comes with a sharper
  8. Comes with a good quality spoolie brush
Cons
  1. Thin brows will need something additional
Would I repurchase/recommend?

Yes to both. I Highly recommend this one to the beginners.

Blue Heaven Elegance Matte Lip Colour 03

Who is it for? Blue Heaven Elegance Matte Lip Colour 03 is for those who are looking for Red liquid, super matte, transfer proof lipstick.

Price

INR 104/- for 6 ml

Sensitivity Alert?

Dries out your lips.

How To Use?
  1. Line your lips precisely with the help of doe applicator.
  2. Glide the applicator on your upper lips from one end to another.
  3. Now fill in your lower lips.
  4. To avoid dryness, apply a lip balm beneath it.

Blue Heaven Elegance Matte Lip Colour 03

My experience with Blue Heaven Elegance Matte Lip Colour 03

Packaging

Comes in a transparent gloss like packaging, with a doe applicator. Can easily slip into your purse.

Texture/Consistency

Liquid lipstick, which sets matte in few seconds after application. Its light-weight and doesn’t really feel like you are wearing something.

Fragrance

Smells like acetone.

Ease of Application

Most of you would find the application easy, as it comes with a doe applicator. But I am a bullet lipstick or a brush person, I mess up otherwise.

Effectiveness

Doesn’t not budges or transfers at all. Unless you really try hard to rub in with your hands. So as a matte lipstick it is bang on!

My Experience

Now, I don’t personally recommend you to apply this without a lip balm, or if you have even slightest dryness or flakiness on your lips. But hey! If you have already prepared your lips in the day, and it’s soft and supple then you can flaunt your ultra matte lips.

If you wear it without a balm then there is zero transfer but with a balm, it does transfer a lot and sets a bit creamy. So make your choice ladies. You will get a maximum of pigments in one swipe. It sets opaque, covering all hyperpigmentation.

I wear this shade on special occasions or party, it’s not a daily wear shade. I love and absolutely love the shade 03. It’s bright and sexy. It comes in 11 more bright for Indian skin tone. This particular one Centres all the attention on your lips. And stays on for good 7 hours and survives oily food. Leaves pigments on removing, so make sure you are using a waterproof makeup remover only.

Overall performance of Blue Heaven Elegance Matte Lip Colour 03

Pros
  1. Sets matte
  2. No transfer
  3. No budging
  4. Feels light
  5. Bright shade
  6. Affordable
  7. Sturdy packaging
  8. You can easily travel with it
  9. Comes with a doe applicator
Cons.
  1. Settles in fine lines
  2. Lips feel stretchy (but most super matte lipstick will do even high priced ones).
  3. Smells like acetone (I checked for the ingredient list, but didn’t find it anywhere)
Would I repurchase/recommend?

I definitely can recommend but not really repurchasing it (I am not a liquid lipstick person). Though, I will insist you to wear a protective balm beneath it.

Khadi Green Apple Shampoo + Conditioner

Who is it for? Khadi Green Apple Shampoo + Conditioner is for those who have dry hair. And want a conditioning shampoo, which doesn’t strip off natural oil from hair. As a bonus, you can skip the conditioner as well.

Khadi Green Apple Shampoo + Conditioner

Price

INR 132/- for 210 ml

Sensitivity Alert?

No, it’s 100% herbal.

How To Use?
  1. Take appropriate amount of shampoo as per your hair length;
  2. Dilute it with water and gently massage the shampoo;
  3. Rinse it off thoroughly with water;
  4. Pat dry your hair;
  5. Apply serum when your hair is semi-dry.

My experience with Khadi Green Apple Shampoo + Conditioner

Packaging

It comes in a transparent bottle packaging with a flip-flop black cap. It shuts absolutely securely. And is travel-friendly.

Texture/Consistency

The runny, bright green gel which produces mild lather.

Fragrance

Has a refreshing smell of Green Apples. It really vitalizes your senses. I definitely love its smell. Though, it doesn’t linger for long.

Ease of Application

It’s quite easy-peezy, after a few washes you will know the exact quantity you would need. It rinses off quickly without giving any slippery feeling. Not much effort goes into it.

Effectiveness

You definitely don’t need an after conditioner. Though if you pre-oil your hair, it feels much better after washing. Bitterly, it didn’t help much with dandruff and premature greying. And both is my primary concern.

My Experience

Didn’t actually go well, almost done with half of the bottle. Still, doesn’t see a bit difference in dandruff. And honestly, I didn’t actually expect it to help with premature greying. And it increased my hair fall! Which makes me doubt that it has hidden SLS AND PARABEN! Though, I didn’t need conditioner after shampooing. Normal shampoos would dry my hair if I skipped conditioning or pre-oiling. Though with this one my hair was much more manageable. But not satisfactorily manageable (but that can differ as per hair quality as well). If you have thin strands then you can completely skip conditioning.

Overall performance of Khadi Green Apple Shampoo + Conditioner

Pros:
  1. Smells good
  2. You can skip conditioning
  3. Affordable
  4. A bottle will last you more than a month
  5. Travel-friendly
Cons:
  1. Hair fall increased
  2. Does no good to dandruff and premature greying
  3. May have harmful chemicals, which is not mentioned in the ingredients list.
Would I repurchase/recommend?

Nope, skip this one. You have enough options if you want to get a herbal or natural product. A penny spent for worse is worthless. It might make your hair feel softer but will hamper it in the long run.
