Pohela Boishakh 2014 (Bangla NewYear 1421)

boishakh
14th April, 2014 was Pohela Boishakh, Bangla NewYear, 1421. A heart warming day for every Bangali around the world and I believe here in Bangladesh we celebrate the day in its fullest. It would be always less no matter how I try to describe the event. Main event and ‘Mongol Shova Jatra’ brought out from the Dhaka university area yet the whole country farewell to all previous woes and welcome the brand new year regardless of race and religion carrying the one identity that we are ‘Bangali’ with full of color. Red is our staple color for the day. Another amazing thing I must mention, we do the worlds largest street Alpona(motif) art(aprox 350,00sft) overnight on both side of Manik Mia Avenue, Dhaka on the new year eve which represents the folk culture of Bangladesh. I wish I could take a picture by myself to show you guys but bad luck, haven’t been there this time.

However, how I celebrated the day? Obviously it started with deshi food. I cooked shorisha Iish(Hilsha fish) curry, shutki(dry fish), pat shak(jute leaf) and there was also fried red chili and rice!

And then, roaming around in the street! I wore the saree husband gift me for the day. Saree has always been a scary thing for me but the day wouldn’t be perfect without saree and of-course Mr. Husband wanted me to wear saree..lol ! I kept my base makeup as light as possible and tied hair up to fight the hot climate. A big red tip(bindi) was there as a center of attraction which specially carried the traditional touch of my look.

***Here is a little surprise for you… a very short video tutorial !!!
While I was doing makeup for my blog I kind of accidentally shooting this video just to know how it feels. This is definitely a crap video because from shoot to crop everything was done by my phone. You might ask why I’m sharing such crap then? I thought, hey this is the fist video I’ve ever done and what is the internet for??…sharing of course 😛

ELF Eyelid Primer

ELF Eyelid Primer

ELF Eyelid Primer

ELF Eyelid Primer, it’s from ELF Cosmetics’s $1 range. An ultimate drugstore eye primer to have as well as a great dupe of UD primer potion. Yes, I have used both and couldn’t find much difference without the price tag.

It comes in a basic plastic packaging with sponge tip applicator. Consistency is creamy yet sets dry on lid. Has a bit of tint in it which helps to even out the color of eyelid. Sets pretty quickly so you have to work fast while blending. Create wonderful base for eye shadow, does helps to prevent shadows from creasing for long time. Only down side of this primer is it doesn’t help  to intensify light matte shadows.

ELF Eyelid Primer

I may be the last one who is reviewing this fantastic budget product but it has been love for last couple of years by my self. This tube doesn’t have much product in it, wont last long if you use regularly but for the price you cant really complain.  It is the best option if you want a substitute of your pricey UD primer.


Have you tried ELF Eyelid Primer?? How was your experience??

Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge

Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge

rt Miracle Spongert Miracle Sponge1


Today I’m here to blabbering about Real Techniques Miracle complexion sponge. Except the name ‘miracle’ its just a makeup blending sponge or a tool for your makeup application.

I have used and tried quite a lot of non brand,drugstore or cheap blending sponges which were mainly the dupe of original beauty blender but I was satisfied with none. Main problem with those were their stiffness. They were too stiff and hard to work with, also because of the stiffness they were hard to clean properly no matter what I use. I have been always in the search of a good and reasonably priced blending sponge.

[wp_ad_camp_3][/wp_ad_camp_3]

I was confused before buying Real Techniques Miracle Sponge, didn’t wanted to waste money anymore but badly needed a sponge. I prefer to use sponge or wadges in my under eye area to set concealer. Miracle sponge is already a raved product in market though i was hesitating to buy one. However, couple of weeks ago finally got my hand into this product.

The product costs $5-$6. Packaging is quite simple, I believe somehow there is a difference in printing in area based launch. My first impression was ok, the sponge looks cute in orange color, has a flat side unlike the other sponge. I was dyeing to use it to see the performance in work.

I dampen the sponge with water and it turned twice bigger in size like all other sponge but the different thing happened is it became so soft and smooth after soaking with water. This is the thing I was looking for in all other sponge. If you sponge is not soft enough then it doesn’t really help even application of foundation or to set it perfectly. I applied my foundation with the flat edge and it worked amazingly. With this sponge and its unique shape it is so easy to get into those narrow corners of face. I got totally impressed from the first use. Also works great as a powder application tool to set foundation.

[wp_ad_camp_4][/wp_ad_camp_4]

About cleaning the sponge, trust me it was way easy to clean this one because of its softness. I’m able to squeeze out and clean every bit of makeup residue from this sponge.

Overall, very happy with the outcome of Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge. A big thumbs up to Real Technique for such quality product in budget price. I’ll be stock up more soon.
I’ll say to everyone who is looking for a budget sponge, do not waste your money on other cheap blending sponge but get Real Techniques one.

3
***Using a minty color fill the center of lid.

4
***Define crease with a matte chocolate color also highlight the brow bone with a warm golden shadow.
Blend all colors nicely.

5
***Apply black khol/kajal in the water line. Using the same chocolate shadow you used before line you 2/3 of your lower lash line and blend kajal with that. Apply a soft pink shimmery pink shadow in the inner corner as shown in the picture.

s2
***Tend your brows, line your upper lash line. I did quite thick and winged liner here. You can do it according to your choice.

s3

A Mehendi Day Featuring Mehendi Shoily | Henna Design

I’m not a regular henna/mehendi user but who doesn’t love Mehendi??? Few days before the sweet lady owner Natasha of Mehendi Shoily sent me two cones of mehendi to try out. Natasha Makes these henna/mehendi cones by herself, she also provides henna application service through her page.

Henna Cone
This is how the henna cone looks like

There was a time when I use to be a mehendi fanatic. But these days market is full of artificial and chemical mehendi which occurs horrible skin peeling in my case so I have been avoiding mehendi can’t remember for how long. When Natasha sent me her product I was a bit confused whether I should use it or not, she convinced me by saying her product is made with 100% natural ingredient. She also said as her product is not artificial so it will not stain within an hour, the stain will take 24 hours to come in full form.


So, yes…. I get on to try them….

Henna DesignHenna Design


Washed off dry mehendi after 4 hours… and the stain was like this…..

Henna DesignHenna Design


24 Hour later…..

Henna DesignHenna Design

When I started using the mehendi I was amused by its smell, not alike the regular mehendi it has a strong smell of Labanga/Laung. It was also packed finely maintaining a sharp tip. Now it been three days I have mehendi on my hand. The stain of it developed deeper by now and still quite intact except some discoloration in my palm due to water uses. Haven’t noticed any skin peeling at all so far.

Overall, I’m totally satisfied with the mehendi stain as well as its quality.

By the way, I’m not so good at mehendi art though what you think of my design??

Healthy Shop Complex Intense Eye Contour Gel

Healthy Shop Complex Intense Eye Contour Gel


Healthy Shop Complex Intense anti-wrinkle Eye Contour Gel with white tea & grape seed extract.Available any good cosmetics shop in Bangladesh. Worth BDT 750/- for 25g.

Ingredient: White Tea Extract, VitisVinfera(grape) Seed Extract, Royal Jelly Extract, Centella Extract, Vitamin B, Propylene Glycol,Cetyl Alcohol and Ceteareth20, Stearyl Alcohol, Isopropyl Palmitate, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Fragrance.

Claims: Help to prevent dark circle, puffiness, fine lines and wrinkles also nourish. smooth and moisturize the skin around the eyes.

My Experience: Product comes in a glass like plastic jar packaging. It has very soft and refreshing scent in it. Almost watery jelly in consistency, in fact, it feels totally like water while applying. Absorb quickly into skin without leaving any trace of the product. If feels moisturizing for an hour or two after application, thereafter its hard to feel that a product was applied there just couple of hour before.

I personally do not like oil based formula for my under eye area. I started using this gel with big hope because at the beginning I liked its watery consistency and the way it soaked into skin. After using the gel for few days I noticed the product pretty much doing nothing in my under eye area. It wasn’t helping to moisture or nourish more than 2/3 hour, totally didn’t work on dark circle, fine lines or anything. So, it turned into a big disappointment for me. However, finished the jar yet got no visual benefit out of it.

Would I purchase it again? Certainly not!! Won’t even recommend to anyone.
