NOTD : Revlon Plum Seduction

Just have a look at the color,isn't it gorgeous...yumm...love it



What I liked :

-> The color. Its an absolutely beautiful color. Somewhere between purple and pink
-> The formula. Its so creamy and so easy to apply. 2 coats and you are done
-> The shine. Do you see how the color shines. The picture is in natural light and there is no top coat

What I didn't like :

-> The wearability. There was wear off very next day which was a downside considering how beautiful the color is.

NOTD : Ulta 3 Carrot Top

Carrot Top is a perfect color for hot summer days. Its a bright orange color nailpaint and inspite of its brightness, the color is very wearable. It was so lovely that each time I looked at my nails, I smiled.





What I Liked :

-> The color is real bright and happy
-> The formula. Its so easy to apply, 2 coats and its done
-> The shine. There is no top coat in the pics
-> The price. Who can complain at $2.50AUD

What I didn't like :

-> The wearability. But I think that can be fixed by having a top coat

NOTD: OPI Chicago Champagne Toast

One word, its a beautiful color especially for olive toned beauties out there.
Remember the nail color, Madhuri was wearing in Hum Aapke Hain Kaun, I always loved that color. I think this nailpaint is quite close to it. A beautiful brown with hint of pink and mauve in it







What I liked:

-> The color is absolutely fabulous
-> 2 coats and you are done

What I didn't like:

Nothing ....I love this Champagne

Green Smokey Look

I had tried this green smokey look sometime back. Unfortunately I forgot to make a note of the colors used. But, I am sure the green eyeshadow is MAC Humid as thats the only green I have in my stash.







P.S : Please excuse my eyebrows

Review : Lanolips 101

I have always been tormented with dry flaky lips all year round and its gets worse when its cold.I can't tell you how bad it is, I can't wear lipstick and it hurts.
So, in one of my trips to Priceline I picked up this little gem, "The Original Lanolips"



What I liked

-> The consistency. It thinner than vaseline and is easy to spread on lips
-> There is no smell or taste which is a big plus
-> There is no sensation of any sorts when applied
-> Use it overnight and it works magic

What I didn't like

-> It can't be worn under lipstick, so I have to mostly wear it overnight or when I have no lipcolor
-> It has to be applied using fingers as there is no slanted tips. This is real pain
when travelling and you want to reapply it

But,all in all, its a great product for people who are out there with dry lips.

Price : Approx $17.00 AUD ( I have had this for long so the price is an approximation)

NOTD : Chanel Rouge Fatal 487

Wishing all my readers and followers a very Happy New Year...may this year brings all joys and prosperity to you.

Now to the nail color which I had been sporting for over a week now and absolutely love it. The color, the texture, the shine and the wear...everything is awesome



The picture has been taken in natural light so there is no alteration of the color. Its the classic maroonish red with great shine. The picture is after almost 6 days of wearing. As you can see that there is slight wear at the tip but there is no chipping. ( I had used a top coat as well)

What I liked

-> Color, you just can't go wrong with it.
-> The brilliant shine it has
-> The formulation,not too thick but creamy.
-> 2 coats and the color was as in the bottle
-> No chipping even after 6 days

What I didn't like

-> But of course the price. At $39AUD its on the pricey side

So,let me know what you think of this color...and share any of your favourites

Trilogy Rose Hand Cream

Trilogy Rose Hand cream

I am a sucker for hand creams. I buy them quicker than what I can use. In one my recent trips to pharmacy I was wandering around when I tested Trilogy Rose Hand Cream. Although I didn’t buy it then but I very soon made another trip again to pick it up.





Texture: It’s nice and creamy. It almost melts in your hand when you start rubbing in.


Smell
: As the name suggests it smells like roses. Not too strong or too light. Its just sits right

What I like about it :
-> Its very hydrating
-> Its good value for money
-> Love the smell of roses
-> And hold your breath for this one…its not at all greasy. Seriously you can apply it and start typing right away. No greasy sticky feeling after that.

What I don’t like about it:
Nothing.

Would I buy it again: Absolutely. I will get it for my mother when I meet her next.
