Nivea Visage White Extra Cell Repair - Spotless Facial Foam

Sunday, July 31, 2011
Hey girls , what is under spot light today ??? its Nivea visage white extra cell repair spotless facial foam ... ( its a long name , right ?? )


Packaging : 
I got my facial foam from thailand , that is why everything is printed  in Thai language on it ( someone please translate it for me ...eww !! ).It comes in a white soft squeeze tube with flip open cap , which is tightly closed. The squeeze tube contains 150 g of product.

My Experience :
Nivea Visage White extra cell repair facial foam is creamy and thick. I am using this baby for 3 months now , and i am pretty much happy with its results. It does not make my skin white exactly , but it brightens up my complexion , which i love the most. Using regularly , it removes few acne scars that were present on my face earlier . I think it also helps me to prevent breakouts on my face .As a facial foam , it removes dirt , sebum , and makeup in no time without drying out my skin. My skin actually feels cleansed and refreshed. It has a mild scent which is pleasant too.
In short , it is a good everyday facial foam which makes your complexion brighter and removes dark spots too. Jumping towards Pros and Cons :

Pros :
  • Brightens complexion
  • removes dark spots
  • gives shine free look
  • prevents breakouts
  • mild scent
  • does not dries skin
  • affordable
Cons :
  • Not available in Pakistan yet.
  • Do not expect for any whitening miracle from this !!


Price & availability :

I got mine from Watson's store , thailand .. for i guess 200 bahts ( do not remember exact price so please do not quote me on that )

Do you like this review  ? Have you tried this facial foam ? what are your experiences with it ? please comment below and share with me ..

piCture pOlish blog fest : Tango

Sunday, July 24, 2011
Hello my sugar plums ,

i have given an opportunity by piCture pOlish to celebrate blog fest today. I am wearing piCture pOlish's Tango on my nails . It is peachy coral shade. It looks great on my nails and i think it will looks great on all complexions . I think it is a great shade to wear in all seasons. I am absolutely loving its creme finish , It goes opaque in just two coats .

see how smoothly it applies and the color is just gorgeous

 I did not apply any top coat on it . I felt that it does not need one as it applies smoothly .
its a peachy coral shade ... how beautiful
What i love most about this nail color that it lasts for more than 4 days on my nails without color fading and any tips off. That is a major plus for me !!

it goes opaque in just two coats.

The packaging of nail polish is great too. It comes in a rectangular shaped glass container . On front they have mentioned shade name , its tag line ( let your toes do the talking ) and on back side they have mentioned ingredients list. I like the fact that piCture pOlish has given a special tag line to all of their nail colors which makes every color special. The applicator is good too, and it helps in precise application of nail color.

You can buy this nail color here for  $9.90 . piCture pOlish ships worldwide. piCture pOlish is on Facebook too.

Do you own any  piCture pOlish nail color ? what do you think of these swatches and review . Kindly do leave a comment below.

Yours truly,

Review : Diana of London Super Long wear Eyeliner Pencil

Thursday, July 14, 2011
Hey girls , I told you earlier that i am addicted to eye liner pencils and kohl ... :) I am back again with yet another review of an eye liner which is called Diana of London Super long wear Eye liner pencil in blackest black. 


Brand information :
Diana of London is a Pakistani cosmetics brand which offers a wide range of good quality products at affordable prices. i am very impressed with their range of cosmetics. It is a brand which lies under Max care cosmetics. The same company which also owns Dazz matazz and DMGM cosmetics.
you can check their website here.






Product Information :


Diana of london claims that : 

Soft & Smooth Waterproof Eyeliner pencil which gives a finishing touch to your eye make-up all day long. Available in three shades : blackest black , blue . grey.

My thoughts :


This is my second purchase of this eyeliner pencil . I bought this for Rs. 360 Pkr. It glides on smoothly as an eyeliner and inside eye as a kohl pencil . I use it mostly as a kohl pencil because it has UV filters and vitamin E in it and it is ophthalmologically tested too. It provides intense black color. The product claims that it is water proof , but actually it is not . It smudges too ( if you use it as a kohl pencil ) , but i think it is okay because i live in the part of the world where weather is hot & humid mostly and my eye lids are oily too. Over all it is an average eye liner product.
Here is a swatch of this eye liner pencil , i used it on both upper and lower lash lines in this look :


Jumping towards pros and cons :

Pros :

  • color intensity
  • creamy texture
  • affordable price tag
  • easily available in Pakistan
  • ophthalmologically tested
  • contains UV filters and Vitamin E
Cons:

  • smudges when used as kohl pencil
  • not water proof
Price and Availability : 
Diana of london super long wear eye liner pencil is easily available across the nation at any leading cosmetics stores for Rs. 360 pkr ( I bought mine from Imtiaz Super store, Nazimabad )

My recommendation :


If you are looking for a basic eye liner pencil then it is for you , i would recommend Dazzmatazz Define n Design eye liner pencil instead of it ( same price tag but stays put on longer)

Which is your favorite eye liner pencil ?Share your thoughts with me :)

Review: Sigma F80 flat top kabuki & E25 blending brushes

Wednesday, July 13, 2011
Hey my sweeties  , By the grace of God and all your love and support i have got 140 followers on my blog . I want to thank you all for this :)

Today i am doing a review about my two favorite Sigma brushes. Sigma beauty is known for their quality yet affordable makeup brushes. Have a look on these beauties one by one :

Sigma F80 Flat top Synthetic Kabuki Brush:




Sigma beauty claims that :

This exclusive flat top synthetic kabuki was designed to deliver a flawless makeup application. The Sigma Makeup F80 is a buffer brush that can be used to blend powder or liquid products. The short and dense bristles make it easy to buff your liquid foundation. The long handle adds comfort to your makeup application. The synthetic fibers are ideal to be used with liquid products and can be easily cleaned. Made of Synthetic Sigmax HD filament.
My thoughts :

This baby has become an essential part of my make up routine. It blends any kind of foundation so well effortlessly. I am using it to apply my liquid foundations , cream stick foundations and even my bb cream. It blends every thing very neatly and gives an air brush effect. Its bristles are made of synthetic HD filaments which are very soft. It does not shed at all . I have washed it two times till now with a mild shampoo and dried it over night. 

As it is dense , that is why it needs a full night to dry completely.
Over all , it is a great product to work with. 

You can grab your Sigma Flat top kabuki brush here for 16 dollars. Sigma beauty ships worldwide.


Sigma  E25 Eyeshadow Blending Brush :






Sigma beauty claims that :
Oval-shaped brush with gently chiseled sides. Blends and softens the look of powder or cream shadows. Ideal to apply eye shadow primer, base eye shadow colors, and blend harsh lines.
My thoughts :
Sigma e25 is perfect to apply cream eyeshadows , eyeshadow primers, base shadows or blending harsh lines. Its bristles are very soft and dense , which makes it a perfect blending brush. It is very compact and fits easily in my palm. 




Its bristles are very soft and does not shed while cleaning process. I use a mild shampoo to wash it and leave it for over night.
You can purchase your sigma beauty e25 brush here for 9$.


Do you own any Sigma brushes ? What are your experiences with them ? Share  your thoughts with me by commenting below.


Take care,
yours truly,

Review: NYX Mega shine lip gloss

Tuesday, July 12, 2011
Hey girls , i hope you all are enjoying summer , today i am going to review Nyx mega shine lip gloss. It is in shade Baby Rose. I got this as a gift from a dear friend of mine.


Packaging :


Nyx Mega shine lip gloss comes in a rectangular tube with bent sponge tip applicator.On the back side list of ingredients and other product information is given.


 It contains 15ml of the product in a tube. It has a bow design embossed on top of the cap which looks really cute


NYX cosmetics claims that : 

Kiss me quick! Our signature Mega Shine Lip Gloss delivers shine, moisture and softness and envelops lips with glistening color. The finish is both creamy and steamy and ensures knockout glamour. A blend of mineral and lanolin oils helps protect the pout. Available in 64 almost sinful lip gloss shades.

My thoughts :


i own Nyx mega shine lip gloss in baby rose shade, which is a very sheer pink color which have fine shimmer of gold and pink in it. I usually wear it on its own to add some sparkle and shine to my lips , otherwise on top of any other lipstick to add glamour. It is non sticky and has a mild scent similar to candy or lollipop.The thing which i do not like about this lip gloss that you have to re apply it every hour, the staying power is not so good. I like its applicator alot . It is a bent sponge tip applicator which helps in precise application of lip gloss.


 Here is a swatch of Nyx mega shine lip gloss in baby rose on my lips :


Jumping towards pros and cons :

Pros :

  • Good applicator
  • mild scent 
  • non sticky
  • affordable price
  • decent packaging
Cons : 

  • does not last longer
  • have to re apply after one or two hours

Price & Availability :

I got this lip gloss as a gift but it is available internationally at any drugstore for 5.50 dollars. If you live in Pakistan , then you can buy this from International Makeup in Pakistan .

Do you own this lip gloss ? what do you think about it ? Share your thoughts and views with me ..

Christine Single color eyeshade: Review & EOTD

Friday, July 8, 2011
Hey girls this is a mini review of one of my favorite eyeshadow. I am in love with Khaki eye shades or eye pencils and christine eyeshadow is the most cheapest and affordable eyeshadow i have in Khaki shade.
Christine Cosmetics is a Pakistani brand and this is very popular among Pakistani girls because of their affordable range of products. I love their nail colors alot.


Christine eye shades are available in a variety of colors . I bought mine from Imtiaz Super Store for just 50 Rs. ( less than a Dollar ) . It has a velvet finish and looks great when applied wet.


I would not claim that it is the best eye shade . But it is worth the money you have paid for it. If you are looking for an affordable eyeshadow to just throw in your travel bag to carry around this is the one . It has a transparent plastic lid which is flip open. This is shade C-023

On the back the ingredients are mentioned. It is always good to know whats inside your product. 



I applied this eye shade in the following picture, I applied christine eyeshade wet. The color is not so long lasting but it can be increased if you apply it wet or on a good eyeshadow base.


Do you like this post ? Have you tried this Christine eyeshades ? Kindly do comment below and leave your opinion .

Yours truly,
