REVLON COLORSTAY WHIPPED CREME MAKEUP

I have been debating for past 2 years whether to buy this foundation or not.I simply love the liquid version of colorstay.But I was a bit hesitant first of all because of its whipped  mousse texture cuz I think its the heaviest form of foundation and secondly  the price.It is pretty expensive drugstore foundation.



330 True Beige
Quantity 0.8 Fl.Oz
liq.23.7ml
Price $17.46( at Walmart)


First when I apply this foundation,its not the best feeling or not the best look.But as soon as it sets your skin starts to look flawless.It feels not that heavy actually quite its quite light weight. It claims to be 24 hours makeup.I had it on for around 9 hours and it looked better by the end of the day.You don't need any setting powder.

Pros:-Long Lasting.
Doesn't need any setting powder.
Wide range of colors.
Light weight.
Talc free

Cons:-The packaging is not travel friendly.
It is pretty expensive for a drugstore brand.


Bare face with just moisturizer on.
No setting powder,No concealer.
after 9 hours.


I think I am in love with this foundation.And definitely I am gonna buy this again.It gives very nice dewy finish.I am so happy that finally I bought it.

L'OREAL VOLUMINOUS MISS MANGA MASCARA

I am obsessed with mascaras.I have to have all the drugstore mascaras esp Covergirl,Maybelline and L'oreal.So this is not really a new product,but its a new addition in my collection and this is the newest mascara from L'oreal.So first things first,I LOOOOVE THE PACKAGING of this mascara.I have it in colour 374 blackest black.It costs around $9-$10 at walmart or Target.So as you can see in the pictures that it has a very unique flexible wand .




So the formula is neither super wet nor dry,its very creamy.It claims to be  clump free,flake free smudge free.And yes I am using this mascara from past 3-4 weeks.It last whole (8-9 hrs) day without any flaking or smudging.
Without any mascara



With 1 coat on upper lash


with 2 coats on upper lash and one coat on lower lash


 3 coats on upper lash and 1 on lower lash.


3 coats on left eye and nothing on right eye


I really like this mascara esp.on my lower lashes,it lengthens the lashes and adds volume .It is very easy to build-up.The best part about it is it is super easy to take off.I soak my eyes in warm to cold water for 5-6 seconds ,repeat it a couple of times and it comes off right away.Another great mascara from L'oreal.

ESSENCE MINI LIPGLOSS SET

Your wallet is gonna love you for this purchase and your lips are gonna thank you for these tiny mini lip glosses.Essence is a great  affordable brand.I have only seen Essence products at shoppers Drug mart or you can order them online at ulta.com.The price range starts anywhere from 99 cents to $5.They basically have everything for eyes,face,lips and nails.


So I was so gravitated towards the packaging of these glosses that I had to buy them.The set that I have is called SAN FRANCISCO (glamorous tonight).The lipglosses don"t have any individual names.There are 3 mini lip glosses in there.a clear gloss,a light pink and the third one is a shimmery pinkish peach.







You can put these  glosses as is or on a matte lipstick or on any regular lipstick.They don't claim to be long lasting and they are not.They smell like bubblegum or candy, but its not super strong.After few minutes you won't smell anything.


Pros:-Very Affordable,Super cute packaging,Easy to carry.
Cons:-Ummm,
Price:-$4
Qty:-2ml each(2ml X 3)

Is This a sunscreen or moisturizer ?

         HAWAIIAN TROPIC SILK HYDRATION

Qty:-180ml                                  

PROS:- Lightweight,Fast absorbing,Non-greasy,waterproof.

WET N WILD MEGA LIPCOLORS



OMG,GIRLS I CANT TELL YOU HOW MUCH  I LOVE THESE LIPSTICKS.

I am a fan of wet n wild eye-shadows but these lipsticks are out of this world,esp. for the price.I have tried them on dry lips and they instantly hydrates lips.Packaging is pretty similar to Revlon Ultimate Suede but I prefer these ones over Revlon Ultimate Suede.They give a perfect semi-matte finish and leaves your lips super velvety.It remains on lips for good 4-5 hours.
The only con is that when you eat or drink somebody ,it transfers a lot.Other than I don't have any complains with these babies.
Price-$2.57 (at my local Walmart)
qty-.11oz.(3.3g)

905Dsmokin hot pink

968 pinkerbell
909D coral-ine



965 cherry picking

Thanks for stopping by will see you in the next blog.

How to get whiter teeth at home

               Get Whiter teeth at home.






Smiling is contagious.When someone is smiling they lighten up the place and make things happier.To look beautiful while smiling we need beautiful white teeth.Here are some ways by which you can make your teeth whiter without any side effects.




1) BANANA PEELS
  YUP ! You read it right.Banana peels are great source of teeth whitening.Rub the peel on your teeth for 3-5 minutes everyday and you will see the results.Banana peels have potassium & manganese,when we rub them on our teeth, our teeth are gonna absorb all this and this will help them stay white.
2) Strawberries
Strawberries are natural bleaching agent which makes them great teeth whiteners.Take a couple of strawberries,mash them well.Apply them on your teeth and rub for 2-3 minutes.If you want you can add a little amount of baking soda in it.Rinse well and brush your teeth later.The fibre found in strawberries act as a natural cleanser.Rubbing the strawberries helps removing bacteria from mouth and make teeth whiter.



3)Orange Peels
Rubbing orange peels on your teeth everyday helps in whitening the teeth.



4) Use straws
Drinking coffee ,tea,fruit juices and many other bevarages cause teeth staining.But instead of drinking them directly from cup or glass,use a straw.Straws will reduce teeth exposure to these staining bevarages.



5)Oral Care
Make sure to see your dentist regularly.Brush 2 or 3 times a day.Use a soft bristle toothbrush.Floss after every meal.Use a mouthwash twice day.Drink lots of water.Quit smoking.Avoid red wine.





DISCLAIMER: I am not a dentist.These ways have helped me in whitening my teeth over the years.What works for me might not work for anyone else or vice-versa.I wish it works for you guys too,ENJOY.
