NOVEMBER FAVORITES

Better late than never, whatcha girls say? Last time I was determined to post the November favorites by 30th!  Well its 14th today, my bad. But as you can see I have been going around a lot and people aren't the patient ones usually, hope you guys get my point.  There has to be a rant post coming up soon as there came times when i was seriously pissed at people's attitude. I mean seriously, they want an event report before the event itself happens, wierdos :-/

That being vented out, lets move to the little list of monthly favorites that I put up.  Usually people tell me why do I stick to just 5 or 6 products in a favorites post. Ummm its supposed to FAVORITES post, so basically I short list the things that worked best in the last month(s)  instead of putting up everything I used.  

So lets start shooting! 


1.CLEAN & CLEAR Essentials Moisturizer :

Whoever introduced me to this, I am forever indebted to you my angel!  I have pretty bad dry patched skin in winters that actually flakes off and stings when I put anything on it.  And major dilemma, if I moisturize it breaks out.  I have been using this moisturizer for a while now and trust me not even a single pimple showed its face.  The consistency is runny and not at all greasy.  It absorbs completely, leaving the skin soft and moisturized without greasiness.  Thumbs up to this baby! 

2.Maybelline Baby Lips Dr.Rescue - Coral Crave:

I have dry chapped lips throughout the year which make me look like a dehydration patient, so i need to keep lip balm at hand all the time.  Maybelline Baby Lips has been in my stash for a while but i lt was okay-ish, if you know what I mean. I saw this one on a facebook page and just added to my cart on a whim. But this one is super moisturizing, with added menthol that gives that tickling sensation that's absolutely soothing.  I apply it all day long and my lips have been behaving really well lately.  Highly recommended. 

3. The Balm Mary Lou Manizer :

This baby needs no introduction. This cult favorite made its way into my stash quite late but still i am glad I took a leap of faith and got it. Its heavily pigmented and a little goes long long loooong way, infact one dip goes for whole face!  If you are into the Strobing craze I say go for it!  Even if you like subtle highlighting, just keep a light hand and give it a go, just for once.  


4. L. A Girl Pro Conceal Concealer - Classic Ivory:


This one is undoubtedly a wonder in a tube!  Just press a little and dab around and voila!  All CONCEALED. I basically use this as my under eye brightener, rather than concealer but its subtle peach undertone hides my little bit of dark circles just perfectly while highlighting.  Just top off with some loose powder and enjoy a crease free under eye concealer! 

5. NYX Jumbo Pencil - Milk:

Just 3 words GO GET IT!  If you want your eye makeup to POP, i say don't even waste a nano second. This one makes the perfect eye base and helps showing true colors of your makeup. Plus its formula is just perfect that doesn't crease and keeps the makeup intact for longer periods.  Plus if you like white waterline, this has the soft tip that doesn't poke into the eye, plus the creamy formula makes its easy just to apply in one stroke. 

6. Masarrat Misbah Makeup Lip Varnish-Uptown Girl :


MM Makeup has been the talk of the town for a while now and there seems to be no stopping them for all the amazing stuff they brought to pakistani makeup industry.  The lip varnish made to my favorites list a bit late because of its really moisturizing formula. I have been into the matte lips bandwagon lately, lately but in winters, I like to switch between the formulas, and then lip varnish turns out to be my favorite.  With that yummy vanilla fragrance and rich moisturizing, I skip my lip balm before its use.  Even after wearing off, you can still feel that your lips have been left really moisturized. Get it for the winters at least!! 

I hope you guys like the post.  Do give them a try and let me know if they worked for you as well as they work for me. If you already have used any of the above do let me know even then too.

Stay blessed

April Favorites!!


Its been a while since I haven't blogged and it really feels like I have been missing something major in my life!  But getting back to the routine, I have some amazing posts for you guys all lined up! 
Today, as the tradition continues, I bring you the monthly favorites post. With no further delay lets jump to the products I have been loving lately particularly in the month of April!



1.Essence Get Big Lashes Volume Boost Mascara :


I got it as a gift and I am glad I got it!  I never gave much thought about  essence mascaras but after this I am definitely going to try more of them. The formula is not overly dry or wate

2.The Face shop Lovely me:ex Coral Cushion Blusher:

This little baby is in my stash for some time sitting there idle because its just too pretty to use. Finally I started using it and love the natural flush it gives to my cheeks.

3. Maybelline Fit Me Concealer (fair 15) :

If you have been following me over Instagram and Facebook, you would know that in every Makeup look, I use this concealer to brighten up my under eye area. Since I don't have dark circles, so I don't know exactly about the coverage but for brightening its just perfect.

4. Christine Cosmetics Compact Powder :


This compact is just perfect. It really sets my concealer and doesn't let it crease.  In summers  when I get pretty much oily skin, this baby lets me go oil controlled for 3-4 hours after which the t zone gets a bit oily. For me, it definitely is a Local Gem.ry its just the right consistency and doesn't clump even on layering.

5.. Garnier Gentle Soothing Face wash :


This has been my staple since a very very long time (about 3-4 years to be honest).  My skin is like super super sensitive, you put a product on it, it doesn't like it and boom it explodes with anger into many pimples.  Yup that's me. So I am better off with plain water. But still I need a face wash to get that extra oil off. After trying many, finally my skin settled for Garnier Soothing Face Wash. Its  amazing doesn't dry my skin and leaves it supple.



That's it for the month of April guys. I guess i haven't reviewed any of the above. A few of them are in pipeline. Would love to know if you want to see any review in particular.
Stay Blessed
