Review & swatch: Wet n Wild Megalast lip color DollHouse Pink(967)
Today is the third Wet n Wild lipstick review which was sent by the cosmetic shop LOOK for reviewing purpose. I already reviewed Wet n Wild lipstick Pinkerbell(968) and Purty Persimmon(970). I’m going to review ‘Doll house Pink’ today.Keep in mind that, my reviews are based on my honest opinion and I’m not paid or biased by anyone.
Let’s get started……….

About The Color:
Doll house Pink is  mentioned in the label as a rosy purple. In my eyes its slightly blue toned baby pink, an opaque dolly pink or somewhat lilac-pink. Color is way more bright when applied on lip. Pastel in texture.
Color swatches in different light are given below…

About the Product:
Packaging is simple and sturdy but i found it a bit problematic when closing the lid, somehow lipstick always get a poke from the lid. Smell nothing chemically. 
Texture of the lipstick is semi-matte. Color pigmentation is outstanding. 2 swipe is more than enough to get the opaque color. Leave stains even if you wipe off after 30 second which i always love.
I have quite similar views on this one like Pinkerbell i reviewed before. Doll house Pink has really nice glide on quality. Along with the vibrant color payoff.The color is quite transferable, it transfer with anything and everything even they transfers between both lip which occurs uneven color patch. Due to transferring this Mega-Last lipcolor doesn’t really last long. You certainly cannot eat or drink while you’ll be wearing this, otherwise your lipstick gonna be a mess. Even if you don’t eat or drink you’ll need to touch up your lip color in every 2.5/3 hour.
You can directly put it on your lip from the stick or you can use a lip brush for seamless application. I also didnt notice any color bleeding while i was wearing this without any lip liner.
Recommendation:
Dollhouse Pink is a very pretty color to have, yet because of its pastel texture and pop up appearance you might not like it as your daily wear. If you blot lipstick with tissue then you’ll get a nice subtle pink color which is perfect to wear any time.
Hope the review will help you.

Review & Swatch: Wet n Wild Mega Last Lip Color Purty Persimmon(970)
Hey there…
If you are reading me regularly then you already know that the cosmetic shop LOOK sent me three Wet n Wild lipstick for reviewing purpose. I already reviewed Wet n Wild lipstick Pinkerbell(968) in my last post(check it here…). I’m going to review 2nd one “Purty Persimmon“ today.
Keep in mind that, my reviews are based on my honest opinion and I’m not paid or biased by anyone.
Let’s get started……….

About The Color:
Purty Persimmon is also mentioned in the label as Reflect Orange. In my eyes its a bright orange toned red. Yes its not any orange, its a Red color but with warm orange tone in it. 
Color might vary in lip tone. I guess, anyone having fair complexion will find purty persimmon more vibrant and orangish! 
Color swatches in different light are given below…

About the Product:
Packaging is simple and sturdy but i found it a bit problematic when closing the lid, somehow lipstick always get a poke from the lid. Smell nothing chemically. 
Texture of the lipstick is semi-matte. Color pigmentation is outstanding. 2 swipe is more than enough to get the opaque color. Leave stains even if you wipe off after 30 second which i always love.
Now, I have quite different view on this one unlike Pinkerbell i reviewed before. Purty persimmon has really nice glide on quality. Along with the vibrant color payoff it gives such smooth finish without leaving any uneven color strike. Yeh, this one is also easily transferable yet does not create uneven patches on lip. Stays nice and smooth for around 4+ hour if you dont drink or eat. 
You can directly put it on your lip from the stick. I also didnt notice any color bleeding while i was wearing this without any lip liner.
Recommendation:
Its totally unnecessary to say, a bright and vibrant red lipstick doesn’t need any recommendation. Every girl need countless shades of red lipstick in their life… LOL ..I’m laughing, are you? …but you know how true I am!! We girls need blue toned, hot toned, cool toned, orange tone, pink toned, true toned… bla bla.. all toned RED Lipstick. And If you are looking for a perfect orange toned warm red then this is the perfect thing you should have.
I, myself like a warm red more than a cool red, I found it goes better with my yellow toned skin.
Overall, Purty persimmon pleased me with everything…. couldn’t find a single lack to complain about.. !! My bad.. ha ha!! A great budget friendly Orange-Red lipstick for Red lover.

Wet n Wild Mega Last Lip Color in shade Pinkerbell #968
Hey there!
Hope you all doing well.
A couple of days ago, I was sent three Wet’n’Wild Lipstick for reviewing purpose. Pinkerbell(#968) is one of them which I’m going to review today. Keep in mind that my reviews are completely based on my honest opinion and I’m not biased by anything or anyone.
I’ll be gradually posting review n swatches of other two.
So, on to the topic…
Wet n Wild Mega Last Lip Color, Pinkerbell.
 
About the Color:
Pinkerbell or Tendre Rose(as mentioned in the packaging) is slightly coral toned pink. The color tone is soft but quite loud and bright, way more vibrant when you put it on the lip. I absolutely Love the color.
Some color swatches are given below…

 

 

 

About the Product:
Packaging is simple and sturdy but I found it a bit problematic when closing the lid, somehow lipstick always gets a poke from the lid. Smell nothing chemically.
The texture of the lipstick is semi-matte. The pigmentation is outstanding. 2 swipe is more than enough to get the opaque color. Leave stains even if you wipe off after 30 seconds which I always love.
Nevertheless, I’m always skeptical when it’s about lipstick.

I found this lipstick by wet n wild beauty is extremely transferable, the color tends to transfer with anything and everything even they transfer between both lip which occurs uneven color patch. That’s because the color doesn’t sit on lip properly or maybe the formula is like so. However, I also found a solution for that, if I apply it with a lip brush and blot lightly with a tissue then extra floating color pigments comes off and it seems quite settle and even. After blotting that vibrant coral-pink color won’t be there anymore, yet you’ll see a nice soft pink.
Due to transferring this Mega-Last lip color doesn’t really last long. You certainly cannot eat or drink while you’ll be wearing this, otherwise, your lipstick gonna be a mess. Even if you don’t eat or drink you’ll need to touch up your lip color in every 2.5/3 hour.

[wp_ad_camp_3][/wp_ad_camp_3]

Recommendation:

Pinkerbell is totally a super-amplified pastel sort of color. This is undoubtedly not a color that you can wear while you going grocery shopping. It is something special and of course for your special event. A fairer skin toned girl will be able to carry Pinkerbell easily but if you have medium to dark tone then you gotta have the courage to wear this. But my words don’t mean this is a natural thing, absolutely anyone can wear this with a bit of caution.
Another thing is, do not forget to exfoliate and moisturize your lip well before wearing this lipstick to get a smooth finish.

Lastly, I’m loving this color… and If you are a lipstick fanatic then you should have it to.

MUA Undress Your Skin Illuminating Foundation | Review & Swatch
MUA Undress Your Skin foundation
Hello there… Hope you all are having a good time!
I guess you remember from my Facebook haul post that I purchased this MUA Undress Your Skin foundation quite a while now.
Yes, yes.. I’m late to post the review.
You all probably know by now that I’m a huge fan of MUA product. When they launched this foundation I felt like I have to try this out because I was in look for a good drugstore foundation for daily use. I was looking for something which will be light on the skin but will provide satisfying coverage and lasting power. The way MUA address this foundation I felt that this might be the one I’m looking for. So, I placed the order.
[wp_ad_camp_3][/wp_ad_camp_3]
Normally they are £5 but when I placed the it was on sale. Its comes in a rose- golden beige color soft squeeze plastic tube. The plastic tube is remarkably soft, some people might find it cheap looking, but I like the softness. The tube contains 35ml of product. Tube opener comes sealed with foil. You’ll need to peel off the foil to get the product out.
This foundation is fragrance free but i feel some kinda chemical like smell, which isnt really pleasant.They have only three shade to select from, Porcelain, beige, golden. I bought the shade beige first. When I got that in hand i was way to excited to try it out but bad luck, that shade was so wrong for me, way to white than my skin tone. So then I ordered the second one in shade golden. This time shade was pretty close to my skin tone and felt happy about that. Later on, i found another way to use both of shade, if i mix both shade together then it makes a another shade which is slightly brighter than my skin tone but wearable. By the way, both shades are in war under tone.

[wp_ad_camp_4][/wp_ad_camp_4]

MUA Undress Your Skin foundation

MUA claims about this foundation that it will provide medium to full coverage, will cover imperfections and blemishes whilst maintaining skin’s natural glow, as well as, its light diffusing particle will provide instant radiance. The product is suitable for all skin type as well.
In my experience, the foundation is a water based product which is always my first preference when I pick foundation for my combination skin. About coverage, I’ll say, It doesn’t provide medium to full coverage. It gives sheer to medium coverage which a bit more build-able but no way you can cross the medium level of coverage. It does cover up minor imperfections, but you’ll need concealer if you have dark spots or under eye circle. The texture is smooth, feel light on the skin, blend seamlessly and little goes a long way. It does give a radiant finish but after an hour or two I felt the radiant turned into shine probably because of  Humid weather and excess oil of skin. Apart from being oily, this foundation stays quite long if you blot oily areas in 2/3 hours. If you are wearing this at evening, it will work just fine. Another good thing is, this didn’t broke me out.
Overall, I’ll definitely say this is a good product according to the price. However, this didn’t work for me well as I expected. I would love if they had more shade variety. I strongly believe this a perfect foundation for those who have a fair complexion and living in a cold place.

Lakme CC Cream | A Quick & Easy Makeup Product for Oily Skin

Lakme CC Cream | A Quick & Easy Makeup Product for Oily Skin

The whole beauty world is flooding by BB, CC and DD creams these days. I wonder soon I’ll be craving for a ‘ZZ’ cream. Jokes apart, what is a CC cream? The word ‘CC’ stands for Color Correction or Complexion Care. This sort of product aims to give a better solution for uneven skin tone, an instant improvement on skin texture, fresh feeling as well as healthy glow. However, CC cream is nothing but an advanced stage of a BB cream.
Without talking further let me tell you about Lakme CC Cream that I’ve been kind of loving recently.

Packaging wise Lakme CC cream is quite nice than other drugstores one. Comes in a golden beige sleek tube with metallic silver lid cap. The hot pink paper cartoon surely caught my eyes. The tube itself is firm enough and travel-friendly as well. Tube contain 30ml of product and comes in two different shade, Beige, and Bronze. Smells almost nothing but like all other Lakme product.

Lakme CC CreamLakme CC Cream

As because Lakme CC cream is totally made for Indian/South Asian market, so their both shades are toned in yellow. The shade Beige is for a lighter skin tone and the shade Bronze is for the darker tone. They might seem a bit more yellow-ish for skin but somehow its blends amazingly into the skin and turns into a perfect color. I picked the Bronze shade for me and I’m fully impressed with the shade.

Coming to the texture, it gives a quite satisfying result. It is not thin like a BB cream but almost closed to a foundation, easily bendable and lightweight. Provides up to medium coverage with a smooth velvety matte finish. Covers up minor spots and blemishes but for a dark spot, you’ll need a concealer. Though it’s matte in texture but do adds radiant in the skin. Nicely works if you topped up with powder without being cakey. If you have oily skin then you might notice shine but after 3/4 hours, even in a humid weather, this fact definitely amused me. If you are prone to oxidization then you might face that (only if you directly exposed to the sun). Lakme CC Cream contains SPF 20 which is good but I would suggest you not to skip your daily sun care product. This SPF level is not enough to protect you from the harsh sun.yeah,

I have been using it for a month now and another good thing is it didn’t cause any breakout at all. Overall, this a decent product for your go-to makeup.

Wait… there is some negative part as well. If you have flawless skin then it’s a perfect product for you. Whereas, if you have dry and flaky patches on your skin then this CC cream is going embarrass you badly. I don’t know why but somehow this cream highly emphasizes all dry section of the skin. I don’t always have flaky skin issue but whenever I’m lazy to exfoliate my skin well I do notice some dry patches here and there. Honestly, I haven’t faced this sort of dry patch emphasizing issue with any product before. Even if I apply moisturizer prior to applying Lakme CC cream that doesn’t seem to work at all. Somehow it just gets into those dry patches. I wonder how it’s gonna work for dry skin!
Anyways, if you don’t have a dry patch issue then you can defiantly go for Lakme CC Cream. This is a great product for daily use if you need something more than a BB cream or tinted moisturizer.  In fact, the coverage it gives, you’ll eventually forget the need of your daily foundation.

Garnier BB Cream Miracle skin perfector

Garnier BB Cream Miracle skin perfector
Garnier BB Cream is probably its the most hyped product in Bangladesh from last 6 months, as well as, a most requested review. I apologize to all my reader that I took so long to review this product. Garnier BB cream miracle skin perfector is almost widely available in BD from last 6 months. They come in 2 size tube. 18g which costs around tk275/- and 40g costs around tk500/-
Garnier BB Cream
Garnier BB Cream claims to give fairer, glowing, even toned and smooth skin. It say’s that it will blur out any imperfection. Has got SPF 24 in it which is obviously nice to have a day cream.
The product smells okay to me and it has a nice and smooth texture. This is an Indian version which doesn’t offer any shade variety.
Keep in mind that like all other BB cream this is also nothing but a tinted moisturizer, it doesn’t do any miracle literally. Garnier BB cream has the lightest coverage or i can say almost no coverage. After applying skin feel a bit brighter and glowing and after powdering shine goes away but left some kind of natural smooth healthy glow.
Now to start the depth review i need to say some pre-history about Garnier BB cream.
I first got to know Garnier BB Cream back in 2011 in UK. That version of  Garnier BB  use to come in 2 shades, light and medium, I picked the shade medium that time. As far as i can remember from my previous experience it was in a bit thicker consistency, almost like a tinted foundation, coverage was same as now. The shade medium was a bit light for my skin tone but the more i use to rub and blend it into the skin the more it use to get darken n thicker, as a result the shade use to fit in my skin tone perfectly. Most impressive side for me was i didn’t get any oily feeling that time.
So, i fell in love with it.
Garnier BB cream Swatch
blended..
Later on, when i found it available on BD i got quite excited to try it out again, though was a bit confused aswell because of hot and humid weather of BD. Anyways, i bought the smaller tube first. It was in february,2013.. i guess… ! End of the winter…
The first reaction of re-using Garnier BB cream was impressive. I started loving that again. It did felt nicely moisturized but matte after applying, blend very smoothly, use to last long, worked with other face product amazingly. Within few days it became my favorite everyday product.
The small tube last about a month or more.. then i purchased my 2nd one.. the 40g tube. By this time summer has been started, it was highly hot and humid as usually. After using a week in summer I started realize that my BB cream is not performing good as it use to be in cold weather. My face started getting oily within 2 hour and also if i put makeup on then it was sliding horribly!
So, i had so stop using it for summer. I must mention, I have combination skin type. I didnt face any breakout caused by this product and also didnt face any oxidization issue.
Overall, my thought about Garnier BB Cream is, if you have combination to oily skin this is not the summer product for you but it is a great product to use in winter.
This is it for today.

At Home Skin Care routine

At Home Skin Care routine
Now Eid is gone… surely, we all went through lot of makeup during these whole holiday period. But wait, I hope after all these you haven’t forgot to take care of your skin.. 
have you?
I mean, yes, we did clean our face end of the day but you know what your skin was being pressurized and exhausted because of everyday makeup. So now when the holiday is over you should give your skin a good treat.

How…??? Lets discuss it in my ‘at home’ way..
Cleansing
Cleansing is arguably the most important part of your basic skincare routine. Proper cleansing helps you to get rid of old skin cells, dirt and dust, grime, make-up and bacteria, and keeps skin pores free of clogs and able to breathe freely. Cleansing also aids circulation and prepares the skin to receive topically applied nutrients and lipids.
Take few drops of oil such as baby oil or olive oil in a cotton pad or cleansing strips and wipe off your makeup. You can use cleansing milk if you want. Choose a cleanser that is appropriate for your skin type. Do not use soap on facial skin, it can be too harsh and drying and damage skin over time.
If you like herbal thing then go for milk, cream yogurt/ sour curd or honey. They are great as a cleanser.
Gently rub that to skin for a minute and Wash off with water. Always cleanse with warm water because cold water doesn’t dissolve and take away embedded dirt and grime as well as lukewarm water.
Exfoliate
Take your preferred facial scrub with your fingertips or a soft sponge or a facial brush if you have. Apply it using gentle circular massaging strokes and moving upward on the face and neck. Do not scrub too much, too much scrubbing will stretch skin and irritate it, especially the delicate skin around the eyes.
Ground almond, lentil, oats and potato paste works great as an herbal scrub.
Rinse with lots of water. Don’t forget to rinse off from the neck and hairline otherwise residue can clog pores. Use a mild exfoliating scrub with finger tips for daily use. If you using facial brush then use that once a week only.
Taking care of pores n texture
Take ice cube and rub through the face for a minute or two. This will help to minimize pores, redness and any inflammation happened during exfoliation.
Now take your face pace or mask and apply that, wait 15-20min then wash off. 
You can always go for herbal product such as Sandal wood, fuller’s earth, turmeric paste etc or any home made pack you prefer.
Do clean your face with a cleanser again after applying face pack otherwise residue can clog pores and cause breakout.
Toning and Moisturizing
Follow immediately with a water-based toner and a moisturizer appropriate for your skin type to seal in surface moisture.
An alcohol-based toner strips off natural oils; Gentle toners calm the skin and balance pH levels. Choose gentle, alcohol-free versions. Use astringent if you have oily skin.


*Usually i do this process at night before going bed. I believe, this way my skin gets proper time to rest and rejuvenate. I use my night cream instead of moisturizer. 
So, guys…. a clan and healthy face is the most beautiful face. Don’t be lazy to treat your skin well.
Hope this post will help you…. take care till the next post 🙂

How to do Blue Glam Eye Look for Eid-ul -FITR

How to do Blue Glam Eye Look for Eid-ul -FITR
Hey there…
Eid-ul-Fitr 2013 is here..
what color you wearing this Eid ???
My saree is a combination of blue and orange 🙂
So thought to do a tutorial featuring blue..
If i wear my saree at Eid night then I’ll surely do this look.
Its with gorgeous glitter and so glam, isnt it ??
If you wearing white or any blue this eye look will definitely go with your wardrobe.

Lets start the tutorial…
yes yes,, make a nice base for your eye first. I used Nyx Jumbo pencil in Milk here on the upper part because some light color will go there.. Other half i just left with foundation.
Apply a cream color in your brow bone and an orange color in upper crease as the picture shown.
Apply a bright blue in rest of the eye lid but leaving the crease a bit.
Apply violet in the crease….
Now, blend everything nicely.
Tight line your lower lash line with kajal and blend that with violet shadow you used previously in crease.
Yeh, its time for glitter… Apply your glitter base on the blue part only (i used LaSplash eye shadow base here) and then pat your blue glitter over that. Give it a minute to dry. Then dust any fall out..
Now, line your eyes with a liquid eye liner and put on generous amount of mascara… you are done 🙂
Here’s my finished look….
Product I’ve used here:
*Nyx Jumbo Pencil in Milk
*BH cool matte palate for cream orange n violate shade
*10tk pan eyeshadow for blue
*LA Splash eye shadow base/sealer
*Non brand glitter(10/15tk)
*Ioni liquid liner in black
*Loreal feather lash mascara in black
*Ioni matte lipstick in shade Natural
Note:
*You can use clear lip gloss, eye-lash adhesive as a glitter base or you can certainly use if you have the original glitter base thing.
*Apply powder underneath your eye before applying glitter. This will help you to remove glitter fall out later on.
*If you wondering about the base, I did heavy base makeup with pancake here. I also posted a tutorial earlier on How To Do Makeup With Pancake. Do give that a check if you’re just thinking to start with pancake, panstick and all those stuff.
So, did you liked the look??
Are you gonna try it??

Do not forget to show me if you gonna wear it in this Eid, ok ???

Warm wishes for you all… Have a happy Eid

Eid Mubarak

…Take Care…
