  • WHAT BBB THINK ABOUT THIS:
  • The product comes in a small rectangle carton box with a really sugary sweet pakaging on the box. there is another box inside the first carton with the same packaging and it closes with a megnatic clasp.
  • it has a big mirror inside which is coverd by a small piece of paper containing few tips and tricks to create soft glowy makeup looks which is absolutely amazing as it would help people who are clueless about the right use of these products.

  • Highbeam is actually a Liquid pearlescent champagne highlighter which looks amazing and pretty natural on the skin.i love how it gives a natural glow to my skin without looking too glittery or chunky on the skin.


Benefit Cosmetics benetint lip and cheek tint

Benefit Cosmetics benetint lip and cheek tint

  • BeneTint is liquid lip and cheek tint which is cherry in colour and leaves a reddish tint on the skin and lips.it has a mild scent to it. make sure you moisturize your lips before you put this product as tints generally tends to dry out the lips.


Benefit Cosmetics sugarbomb uUltra Plush lip glass

Benefit Cosmetics sugarbomb uUltra Plush lip glass

  • Sugarbomb Ultra Plush lip gloss comes in a generic old school kind of soft plastic tube packging. it is beige-pink in colour and looks so natural on the lips.it feels so nourshing and makes my lips softer.
  • since its a gloss it doesnt give too much colour to the lips.

Benefit Cosmetics sugarbomb Rush Flush Blush

  • Sugarbomb Rush Flush Blush is a mix of four bronzy, peaches colours which has slight sheen to it.it has a tini tiny small blush brush to apply the blush on the cheeks.honestly i dont really use the brushes comes with the kits( and i say this always ) but this is a good one to just keep in your kit itself and use it on the go when you dont have any brush handy.


Benefit Cosmetics sugarbomb Rush Flush Blush

  • Overall its a really nice buy for those who want to look natural and dont want multiple numbers of products in their kits as this single kit can work on their lip and cheek as well.May be you can play a little with mascara and you are done! the only con i see here is the PRICE of the kit but that is the case with every premium brand.so if you are someone who  can splurge and wants to invest in some good makeup product,there you go girl this one is just for you!!

LA Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer- Pure Beige Review
I remember Watching @dressyourface using this particular product always for highlight and contour on every single bride and last week when i was browsing  Nykaa store i jumped for joy when i saw they have launched this brand in india.

To Know more About Dressyourface you can visit her Instagram Page HERE

Another reason was she said it works same as MAC Prolongwear concealer which i love!
Is it a dupe for The MAC Prolongwear Concealer?
Read on till end to know more about this product..

 What company Has to say:

LA Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer- Pure Beige Review



 Ingredients:



LA Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer- Pure Beige Review


 PRICE & SHADE: INR 535 & shade i bought was creamy beige.

With a crease-resistant, opaque coverage in a creamy yet lightweight texture, the L.A. Girl HD PRO Conceal has a long-wearing formula that camouflages darkness under the eyes, redness and skin imperfections.
  • It evens skin tone, covers dark circles and minimizes fine lines around the eyes.
  • This blendable and buildable formula provides the ultimate complete and natural-looking customizable coverage.
  • This must-have concealer includes a soft brush-tip for easy application.
  • Try blending a couple of shades together for the perfect match.
  • It is a cruelty and paraben free product.
  • It is suitable for all skin types.
  • Available in 24 shades including Green, yellow and orange corrector.

WHAT BBB SAYS:

This concealer comes in a transparent soft plastic tube with a soft brush applicator on top to dispense the product. as it has an applicator, its really very easy to apply product precisely onto the required area in order to conceal, correct, highlight and contour.

LA Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer- Pure Beige Review
The shade i have with me is Pure beige which has got pinkish orangish undertone to it and is perefct for concealing deep areas around the face for medium skintones. More deeper skintones can choose to go for more deeper tones availabe 
 If someone has crazy amount of darkness under the eyes or around the face can go for an orange corrector along with a concealer which matches to their skintone.
Also if someone wants to brightness up their skin can put a little bit of yellow corrector on top of their regular concealer.
honestly i dont think so the green corrector is of any use to us (indian skintones).
LA Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer- Pure Beige Review

The concealer has a thick liquid consistency and i just dab it with my MAC 217 brush untill it settles down into my skin and then i powder it off to seal it completely into my skin.
It feels really light onto skin and doesnt dry out my skin.It feels really comfortable on the skin as well.
LA Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer- Pure Beige swatch
 It sets to natural matte finish onto the skin and doesnt accentuate the lines under the eyes.It provide buildable coverage and you can build it to full coverage by adding more layers if you need to.
LA Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer- Pure Beige demo
It gives more Hd finish to the skin which looks amazing in photos as you can see the diffrence in the photograph above!

Products i have used to create this look :
MAC P+P MInfusion Serum Primer
LA Girl HD Concealer : pure beige
MAC Studio fix powder : NC30
MAC Kohl Power Pencil ; Feline
MAC Extended Play Mascara
Claire's Smokey eye brush to apply concealer & Real Technique's Blush brush to set the undereye.

I am in love with this product and highly recommend this product if you are on a budget.It is similar to MAC Prolongwear concealer in terms of finish and coverage.they have a range of colours to choose from which is amazing as everyone can find one shade for themselves.It is Crulty free and paraben free as well which means no animal was harmed during the process of making this product and is free from heavy chemicals.

IN COLOR COSMETICS Matte Me Ultra Smooth Matte Lip Cream-402 Review & Swaches- HOt OR NOT!!

While the whole Internet is Raving about the Dupes of the amazing matte liquid lipsticks, i just happened to realise that i too have one to share with you guys !!
IN COLOR COSMETICS Matte Me Ultra Smooth Matte Lip Cream-402 Review & Swaches

So i bought one for myself last year in september when i went to delhi for a small vacation.I got so excited by the looking at the price that i wanted to buy all of those but somehow managed not to spend only on lipsticks because Hey girl! You cant afford to miss an awesome trip to sarojini ,right?

PRICE: Around INR 200ish ( dont really remember the exact price)

 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
 Matte me in colour shade 402 (deep maroon shade)
Velvety touch  
Long lasting
Water proof
 Pure Matte
Suits every indian skin tone
 Smooth texture.
There was neither a proper description about the product on the packaging nor on the internet.


IN COLOR COSMETICS Matte Me Ultra Smooth Matte Lip Cream-402 Review 

INGREDIENTS:
DIMETHICONE,HYDROGENATED STYRENE ISOPRENE COPOLYMER,CERESIN,SILICA,DIOX TITANIUM IDE,RED,IRON OXIDE,YELLOW,IRON OXIDE,BHT,PROPYLPARABEN,D&C ORANGE NO.5/CI45370:2

WHAT BBB HAS TO SAY ABOUT THE RPODUCT:
The product comes in a transparent squarish container with a matte black lid which has an applicator to apply the product on lips.
the product inside is a deep pigmented liquid which gives you an opaque finish in one coat.you can obviously layer it on if you want to intensify the colour a bit more.



IN COLOR COSMETICS Matte Me Ultra Smooth Matte Lip Cream-402 Review 
the product is neither too thick nor too runny.it dries out matte after few seconds. the thicker you go on with rhe product the longer it takes to dry out.
Honestly i am so much in love with the deep maroon red colour it has got.
but the only drawback with lip colour is that it dries out my lips so bad that i cant really keep it on to my lips.



IN COLOR COSMETICS Matte Me Ultra Smooth Matte Lip Cream-402 Review 


One should definately put a lip conditioner or a balm on to the lips before applying it onto the lips. make sure you blot off the excess moisture of the balm in order to keep the lipstick matte otherwise the texture of the lipstick could get altered.
It is transfer proof to some extent as well and has a really nice wear time.
it can come off when you eat something oily so make sure you keep the lipstick with you to touch up in case you happen to eat something.



IN COLOR COSMETICS Matte Me Ultra Smooth Matte Lip Cream-402 Review 


Honestly for the price it is a really good deal and is a good alternative for those pricey matte liquid lipsticks.it is a good option for college going girls to start off with those fancy lip colours and are not going to hurt their pockets as well.

it has a variety of colours from pinks to nudes too dark to choose from!
But i am still not really happy with the fact that it does dry out my lips and i cant really wear it on my lips because it feels so stretchy and uncomfortable.

The product inside is white in colour having a thick cream consistency which glides onto the skin so smoothly leaving no oily residue onto the face.It doesn't really have a smell of its own but to me sometimes it smells like Malai( A white creamy substance driven from Milk)

  It contains Antioxidants which inhibits the oxidation of skin cells.I don't have sensitive skin so i cant really comment but it claims to work wonderfully on sensitive skin.But the friend of mine who recommended me that has sensitive skin and she seems to love it so much.
LA ROCHE-POSAY Soothing Protective Cream Review & Pictures


The Cream Is really very rich and feels quite luxurious on the face.it really helps in Making my skin feels much more softer than ever every time i put this on and Really completes my skin care regime.I use MAC Moisture Infusion Serum along with it before i put my makeup on and this combination works amazingly.
The only thing i miss in it is a little bit of SPF because it could save some time Every morning if it had that.

I love this cream a lot but as it is more suitable for extremely dry skin & super rich in texture i feel like i can still look for another alternative.
I feel like it is a bit pricey but really good for people who are really sensitive to skincare products or anything for that matter.

I could have been stick to this one only but as i want soemthing with SPF I might have to search for something which comes with SPF in it.
I Highly Recommend this to you all if you have dry and sensitive skin and have no issue putting a Separate sunscreen on top.

BBLUNT Climate Control Anti frizz Leave-In Cream Review,price In india,photos & How to Use

Hi All Again & Thanks a lot for your eternal support for my Blog and my Youtube channel Always! You Guys Means the world to me..
BBLUNT Climate Control Anti frizz Leave-In Cream Review,price In india,photos & How to Use 

I have always Struggled to tame down my hair and tried  managing the ruff ends  that i ended up chopping it off in Sept 2015 finally..
i never use too much hair products on my hair as i am facing hair fall nowadays and trust me the one & only effective way to stop hair fall is to look up into your diet and change it accordingly.
So just 2 weeks back when BBLUNT sent me this Anti Frizz leave In Cream In my mail, it got me too excited.I used It A couple of times those days and i decided to write a review about it today.

What The Company Has To say: 

This versatile cream ensures your hair looks great, however hot,dry or humid it gets out there. It enhances natural movement,smoothens and leaves you in charge, whatever the weather.

Ingredients


Hydrolyzed Keratin, Quinoa - the protein with 8 essential amino acids & Provitamin B5

Specially created for Indian hair. Protects from the environment and heat styling damage.

HOW TO USE


Works best on damp, towel dried hair. Take a small quantity into your palms. Apply evenly, focusing on mid-lengths & ends, keeping away from the scalp. Style as desired

Price: INR450 for 150g Product.

What BBB Has To Say:

The product Comes in a big Black plastic Bottle which is opaque so you cannot see through  the quantity of product left in the bottle.it has got a pump dispenser to dispense the product so it has scored a 10 in terms of hygiene.

However the size of the product is not appropriate to fit inside my bag as it is going to take a lot of space there so it isn't a travel friendly product for me. It has a twist lock which i have never used!

BBLUNT Climate Control Anti frizz Leave-In Cream Review,price In india,photos & How to Use 
The product inside has creamy white colour and has got a semi cream- gel like texture ( if something like that really exist :P )

BBLUNT Climate Control Anti frizz Leave-In Cream Review,price In india,photos & How to Use 


The product is light weight and non greasy and spreads really well on to the hair.
However I am not a fan of the strong smell it has but happy that it vanishes in some time.

I have used this product the same way as it was prescribed and mentioned on the bottle but didn't find any major difference to be very honest.i have  dry rough hair towards the end and it wasn't able to give me satisfying results.

BBLUNT Climate Control Anti frizz Leave-In Cream Review,price In india,photos & How to Use 


But Now I have Found a way in which it works best for me. so I am here just sharing a few easy steps to get the most out of this product!
Here are those Few easy Steps!
  • Wash Your Hair as usual.
  • Take two to three pumps of the product depending on your hair length basically and work your way down from the mid length till ends. I do apply a little bit on my flyways/baby hairs i have at crown of my head.
  • Blow Dry the hair on medium to high heat.( I just got myself one from Phillips and would be sharing my views soon.)
  • Finish it off with a shine spray! ( I am testing out the Tony & Guy Moisturising Shine Spray nowadays so i use that one to finish off the look)
That way it works so much better for me and i am now quite happy with the product.
it has a lot but easy steps involved so i don't mind doing it once or twice a week.
But using it alone just by itself doesn't fetch me the kind of results i expected so that is definitely a disappointment.

Overall I find this product a decent one which works for my normal to ruff hair just fine but i wouldn't mind looking out for some other alternatives which requires less work.
