Perfect Home Remedy For Dry Skin !! (Get Winter Ready ;) ) 1

Perfect Home Remedy For Dry Skin

by Vani Saxena

Perfect Home Remedy For Dry Skin: Winters are coming and bringing the dryness along! Admit it; this is the thing we hate the most about winters. Yes!! The Dry scratchy skin. Dryness everywhere with those white itchy spots on the face. Ewwww!
“Got nowhere to hide”

No bbs or ccs work by this time. Only the thick cold creams are there for the rescue. But even they don’t stay for long!
How about finding a natural way of getting rid of the dry skin?
And yes, this home remedy is not just for the time duration of winters but if you already possess a dry texture you’d love to use this regularly.

Here you go…

Perfect Home Remedy For Dry Skin !! (Get Winter Ready ;) )

You’ll need:
  1. 3 tsp Honey
  2. 1 tsp Almond Oil
  3. 1 tsp Olive Oil

Mix both of the oils with the given amount of honey. Stir them nicely.
When you’re done, apply the mixture onto your face and neck. Massage it with light hands.
Let it stay for some time. Say, a half hour.
Wipe it off with damp cotton.

Perfect Home Remedy For Dry Skin !! (Get Winter Ready ;) ) 1

Remember you must not apply anything after this. It’s best if you apply this before going to sleep. So then there’s no requirement of applying anything more!
You can also store it in a jar or a bottle and use this as your daily moisturizer. But remember to wipe it off! ;)
Do this on a regular basis.

Perfect Home Remedy For Dry Skin !! (Get Winter Ready ;) ) 2

#Olive Oil

Olive oil caters several benefits to the skin. It’s always good to moisturize your skin and therefore Olive oil would make the deal better. Since it is rich in natural fatty acids, anti-oxidants, vitamins & minerals it nourishes, rejuvenates and guards the skin. Olive oil locks in the moisture for longer. It consists of good fats which help in getting rid of the free radicals and also heals the skin.

#Almond Oil

Almond Oil is rich in Vitamin E, monounsaturated fatty acids, proteins, potassium, and zinc, which explains why it is so good for our skin.
Almond oil is naturally endowed with the highly potent antioxidant vitamin. Regular application of the oil can protect your skin from oxidative stress and UV radiation damage, keeping it soft and supple.

#Honey

Honey is a humectant, which means it attracts and retains moisture. It’s also an anti-irritant, making it suitable for a number of sensitive skin issues. As it is Honey is made up of nectar, pollen and resins from the flowers which are loaded with the anti-aging and antibacterial properties and helps in getting rid of dryness and fines lines effectively.

L’Oreal Professional Paris Liss Unlimited Evening Primrose Oil Review

What is it and who is it for? L’Oreal Liss Unlimited Evening Primrose Oil is to solve this frizzy hair problem, use this serum to add a gloss and a shine to your frizzy and lifeless hair! Get your hands on this L’Oreal Professional Paris -Liss Unlimited (Evening Primrose Oil) hair serum and flaunt your tresses every day rather than getting disappointed with your natural hair.

L’Oreal Professional Paris Liss Unlimited Evening Primrose Oil Review

Price:

Rs 650 for 125 ml

How to Use:

I usually wash my hair two times a week. And whenever I do, I apply 2 squashes of the serum onto my hair especially on the tips where the “Split ends” reside. Note that your hair should be wet and damp so that your tresses can soak in every bit of the product. Wet hair makes it easier to spread the oil evenly.

My Experience with L’Oreal  Liss Unlimited Evening Primrose Oil

I have been using this product since 8 months and it’s still not finished yet. As you can see I have a good quantity of it left which can go on for another right months seriously.

Though I apply this on my hair only twice a week it leaves my hair glossy, smooth, shiny and bouncy until my next wash. You need not pump a handful of the product but just 2 small pumps would do great!

L’Oreal Professional Paris Liss Unlimited Evening Primrose Oil Review 4

Remember! Lesser the amount, greater are the results! Don’t apply too much of it. You don’t want your hair to be all clamped up together.

This serum works on almost all hair types. There’s a long old myth that says these professionally used serums can only work on that hair that have gone through smoothing and straightening. No! It not only improves the chemically undergone hair but also the normal and natural textured hair.

Positives 
  1. Gives a natural shine and a bounce to frizzy dull hair.
  2. Stays for 4-5 hours even in heavy traffic days.
  3. Makes your hair tangle free giving excellent results.
  4. Besides its wonderful uses and affects I like the fragrance of this Primrose Oil as well.
  5. It is light and makes hair manageable. It is less oily and non-greasy.
Negatives 
  1. Using too much of the Primrose Oil will make your tresses look oily and greasy.
  2. The pump which is the only convenient way of taking out the product if gets damaged can be a hectic and a troublesome job otherwise.
  3. It may seem costlier to some and they may not purchase it to avoid the tinge of the product’s high price.
  4. Don’t use too much or too frequently or else you’ll end up having sticky or damaged hair. (Depends on the texture of your hair.)
Overall Would I repurchase and recommend?

Honestly, I’d love to have this hair serum again! For me, it is a wonderful launch by L’Oreal which has given me a solution to my frizzy, dull, damaged hair problems. And I’d definitely recommend to all those girls who’re struggling with their hair!

Lakme Absolute Mattreal Skin Natural Mousse Review

Lakme Absolute Mattreal Skin Natural Mousse Review

by Vani Saxena

What is it and who is it for? Lakme Absolute Mattreal Skin Natural Mousse looks like whipped cream. By this, I mean it is very light with a very soft and a smooth texture. It blends easily onto the skin and makes it look perfectly toned. The silicones present in the mousse make it so lightweight and buttery soft. It has good coverage and conceals all the scars and marks. What I liked the most is that it is so soft and light on the skin that it is suitable for daily use as well.Lakme Absolute Mattreal Skin Natural Mousse Review 1

Price:

Rs 725 for 25gm

How to Use:

You just need to take a moderate amount of the mousse on your fingertips and dot it all over your face. Since it blends easily you need not rub it for so long. And there you go! For a perfect finished base look. Then you may continue adding on your foundation, compact, blush, concealer and what not!

My Experience with Lakme Absolute Mattreal Skin Natural Mousse

The product comes in a silver metallic hemispherical container and it’s the packaging which is more appealing and catchy to the eyes! You’ll surely be tempted to buy this one!

 When I went to the store, it was its round cute container in which it is sold and not it’s a utility which pleased me more! Well, no doubt the quality of the mousse is equivalent to its attractive package. I have the shade ‘Golden Light’ and it is soooo amazing and goes with my skin perfectly! It does justice to my oily skin. I everyday wear this for my college and it seems so natural and soft.

Lakme Absolute Mattreal Skin Natural Mousse Review 3

Before using this mousse foundation, I had the liquid foundation which seemed really artificial and could not blend properly leaving my face skin cakey and unnatural. But ever since I’ve got this foundation I love its results every now and then!

On my face, it stays for about 5 hours. Even though I apply enough amount of this product I still feel my skin breathing and not sulking!

Positives 
  1. Light weighed.
  2. Blends smoothly.
  3. Works great on oily to sensitive skin.
  4. Has a great fragrance which makes it even more preferable.
Negatives
  1. The “16 hours stay” claim is not true at all. In fact, it lasts for a maximum of 4-5 hours.
  2. 725 bucks not worth with such a less quantity!
Overall Would I repurchase and recommend?

This launch by Lakme gives a super-finish touch as it blends on the skin amazingly. It gives a natural look and conceals all the marks and scars! But don’t expect long-lasting power from this one.

Vaseline Healthy White Lightening Visible Fairness Lotion Review 3

Price:

Rs. 230 for 300 ml.

How to Use?

Apply on the necessary areas on your body on a regular basis to see the results.

My Experience with the Vaseline Healthy White Lightening Visible Fairness Lotion

This lotion is suitable for all the seasons. Not specifically designed to favor either of them. It’s neither too watery nor too thick.

It gives a pretty good shield to my skin and also acts as a sun block.
Also I like its smell which is soothing and fresh. I don’t feel my skin dry even a bit. But yes NO FAIRNESS. It nurtures my skin of course but the whitening factor isn’t true at all. It does repair the damaged skin cells to an extent though!

Vaseline Healthy White Lightening Visible Fairness Lotion Review 2

Positives 
  1. Provides UVA protection.
  2. Repairs the damaged skin.
  3. Makes the skin supple and healthy.
  4. Available Easily.
  5. Fair cost.
Negatives

Overall would I Repurchase and Recommend?

Yes. A very decent product it is!

How to Use?

After shampoo apply onto wet hair, let it on for 5 minutes and rinse thoroughly with water.

My Experience with Tresemme Smooth And Shine Conditioner

For me it’s a complete flop :/

I got this with a hope that my hair would become easy to manage and soft to some extent!
But my hair became even more frizzy and dry.
Totally disliked it. Nothing more to say.

As much as its packaging is nice and attractive, the worse is its utility!

Positives 
  1. Affordable
Negatives 
  1. Does not make the hair soft or smooth. Vague statements I’d rather say.
Overall would I Repurchase and Recommend?

No. Please don’t get this one. It is affordable but you cannot afford to spoil your hair!
I’ll love to substitute some other hair conditioner with this.

DIY Tomato Toner

Tomato Toner DIY: Hey guys, I’m back with another DIY. Last time I had discussed the Honey and Lemon mask for natural reduction of facial hair. Today I’m going to tell you as to how to get a clear and a spotless pore-free face. So keep reading! All of us feel disgusted on having those small ugly pores and pigmentation on our face! That pigmentation usually caused coz’ of sunburn, aging, and reactions to some or the other products we’ve used. Today I’ll make u aware about those bloody-red juicy fruits we all like to munch on. I’m talking here about tomatoes!! Yes, those cheeky red fruits which you like to have in your salad and in your dishes as well!

But do u know these tasty fruits can even help in making your skin clear and spotless like that you had “once upon a time”!

 

DIY Tomato Toner - Exfoliate and Brighten Skin at Home Naturally

Tomatoes are rich in Vitamin C which help in getting rid of pigmentation usually caused due to sunburns as they possess anti-aging properties.

It helps in tightening your skin since it acts as an astringent and help soothe your derm as it acts as a coolant too! It contains “lycopene” which is an antioxidant and offers many benefits for skincare.

Uncountable properties in just one small fruit!

By toning your face with tomato pulp can do great wonders to your skin. It may help in lightening your scars, dark circles and diminish your wrinkles too!

So this recipe is very simple yet an effective one. All you need is a tomato and a fresh lemon.

Here you go.

In a juicer, squeez a freshly washed tomato and extract the juice out of it. Then collect the juice in a jar or a bowl and refrigerate it for 5 to 10 minutes.

While your juice is getting cooled up, halve a lemon and squash it in another vessel for taking out the juice.

DIY Tomato Toner - Exfoliate and Brighten Skin at Home Naturally 3

Gradual and Natural Facial Hair Reduction 1

Natural Facial Hair Reduction

by Vani Saxena

Natural Facial Hair Reduction: It is believed that almost 5-10% women tend to have excessive facial hair, yet this issue is considered as a taboo. Thus, this makes women and girls feel distressed and embarrassed.

They become conscious about how they’ll look and spend too much of their time and money in parlors in getting plucking, threading, and waxing of their facial hair done. Not only these convenient looking treatments are time-consuming but are painful at the same time.

Abnormal facial hair growth can be caused by increased levels of testosterone and other androgens. This usually happens in women after they’ve crossed 30 or due to menopause and also coz of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. Hereditary factors may also be susceptible to unusual hair growth.

All of us hate those weekly appointments at the parlours for those small yet important facial hair treatments. So peeps do try this simple and painless home remedy for removing your facial hair. Why spending too much of your valueable time and hard-earned money in parlors when you can actually do this task while sitting at your home??

You just need to go to your kitchen and grab things from there and believe me after you read this, the so called “taboo” of removing the facial hair is surely goin’ to become a myth and you’ll find this task real easy.!

So here I’m discussing the Lemon juice and Honey mask. This is surely going to come up to your expectations. You’re nomore going to panic like when you do while getting your facial hair removed.

Gradual and Natural Facial Hair Reduction 2

Since lemon juice and honey have a sticky texture, they help out in getting rid of facial ingrown hair.

The Lemon juice works as a cleansing and an exfoliating agent while Honey helps in softening the hair due to its moisturizing properties.

It will also help in avoiding skin irritation and breakout. And because of its bleaching quality, lemon juice will also help lighten your facial skin and hair.

So here you go.

All You’ll need is a medium sized lemon and 4 tablespoons of Honey.

Gradual and Natural Facial Hair Reduction 4

PROCEDURE:

In a bowl squash the lemon and mix the lemon juice with the moderate amount of honey. Wait for another 2 to 5 minutes and let the mask be at rest.

Gradual and Natural Facial Hair Reduction 3

Before applying the mask make sure your face is cleansed thoroughly and no trace of water or soap or any cream is left behind. Though your face must be moist and clean all together.

Start applying the mask on your face, starting from your forehead and then your cheeks, under your nose, over your nose, the chin and all the necessary areas .Then leave it on for about 15 to 20 minutes. Women generally don’t like hair being on their upper lips as well as their chin.

When you’re done, gently remove the mask with a facial wipe soaked in lukewarm water. Do not rub it off harshly or else you’ll end up having irritation all over your face. Be gentle since it’s your face, not a stone.

Do this for at least two times a week for a minimum of two months and you’ll see the change gradually.

Be patient and be calm. You’ll slowly see the result coming out. It’s a home remedy and not magic. Naturally made things are not accompanied by any chemical and take time but when they’re done, the effects and results are surely satisfying.

I’m happy with mine!?

Its got no side effects and is completely skin friendly. I’ve used this for about a month and I’m happy with the results. Try this for sure and let me know if you’re contented.

Lakmé Face Magic Skin Tints Crème Review 4

Lakme Face Magic Skin Tints Creme Review

by Vani Saxena

Who is it for? Lakme Face Magic Skin Tints Creme is A foundation cream by Lakmé which gives an instant glow to the face. Also infused with sunscreens which protect the skin from the sun.

Lakmé Face Magic Skin Tints Crème Review

Price:

Rs. 350 for 27 grams.

How to Use:

Dab the product on to your face starting from the cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin.

Blend it evenly all over the face.

My Experience with Lakme Face Magic Skin Tints Creme

I got this foundation cream last week as I was searching for something that would not feel cakey on my face. The sales girl suggested me this Tints crème.

It’s a foundation cream meant for daily use. I don’t think I need something more after I apply this. It also works as a sunscreen. The only thing I don’t like is its strong smell.

I have the shade shell which goes perfectly well with my skin tone. It suits my dry skin and does not leave ugly patches behind. But I need to apply 2 coats of it since one is not enough.

Lakmé Face Magic Skin Tints Crème Review 5

Positives
  1. Light Weighed, goes well with my complexion.
  2. Blends smoothly and easily.
  3. Infused with sunscreen.
  4. Available in all the outlets.
Negatives 
  1. The price is not worth the quantity. Its a bit expensive if you compare it with the quantity.
  2. The shades are dull as compared to the shades of other Lakme products. (The shade shell which comes in Lakmé Liquid Foundation is somewhat different than the shade in this product)
  3. One coat of the foundation cream is not enough for giving a perfect shine to the face. You need to apply at least 2 of it.
  4. Strong fragrance.
Overall would I Repurchase and Recommend?

Honestly, I’ll not go for this product again.

It’s pricey.

Only if you’re sure about it then go on for spending your 350 bucks else don’t.
