The body shop sweet pea body butter review !!

Do you love body butters? yes...i do...they are my best friends in these cold days.Today i came up with a review of body butter from The body shop.Its really some thing different from regular body butters from The body shop.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

This twin pot contains two types of moisture: a light cream for where skin needs less hydration and a rich cream for drier areas like elbows and knees. It has a sweet, floral scent.

• Provides 24-hour hydration
• Leaves skin feeling soft all over
• Sweet, floral scent

Price : £13 for 200 ml tub.

My thoughts : 

Basically,i like the concept of two types of cream in a single tub.it has a sweet floral scent ...and its pink !! it absorbs very well into the skin and keeps skin moisturised for long time .i bought it in a sale for 5 pounds!! its a steal !!

What else i can say?yaa.... but its a bit pricey if u get in full price.but The body shop UK always provides some discounts..do visit their website Here for offers going on !!

Review :RIMMEL LONDON COLOUR MOUSSE 8 HR 012 MOCHA !!

Friends Post by Tejinder kaur :

What product Claim?

Rimmel Colour Mousse Eye Shadow delivers glistening high impact colour for up to 8 hours.

My Thoughts:

I am here today with another cream eye shadow - Mocha from Rimmel London – a very pretty chocolate brown shade with copper undertones. Highly recommended for Indian beauties and would suit all skin tones. 

It is very sparkly and beautiful colour which is best for evening parties or night out. Cream eye shadows are a quick way of injecting shimmer into a basic make-up look, and have a good consistency which makes them really easy to blend quickly with your finger or eye shadow brush.

 I prefer my finger to spread evenly on lids. It is multifunctional - can wear on its own or as a base for your powered eye shadows. Pigmentation is superb. It doesn’t dry quickly thereby giving enough time to spread evenly on lids. Gives a semi-matte finish and lasts for 8 hours as claimed without creasing or fading. 

Packaging: 

 It comes in a pretty solid glass jar which is transparent with screw-off lid. It is very light-weight, small and sturdy; will fit easily in the bag while travelling. From the transparent part you can easily view the colour and on black lid it has a label that matches the colour of product to easily identify if you have few of them. 

The Big Label also has product name and number and below the transparent part there is white sticker shows the quantity. There is an additional small pressed lid when you open the product which makes it safe from leak. 

Staying Power: 

Must say staying power is superb as per claim (8 hours without creasing or tugging). 

swatches :

Texture: 

It is very creamy and buttery in texture. Pigmentation is nice as a single swipe builds up the colour on the lids. It is very soft and smooth and glides smoothly on the eyes. For oily lids it starts slight creasing after 4 or 5 hours of wear as there were some noticeable fading and patchiness.

 I would recommend using powder/primer before applying this cream based eye shadow to hold the colour in place on the eyelid. It looks sparkly but metallic sheen is very soft and subtle making it quite wearable and would work beautifully for Indian skin tones. It goes perfectly with both Indian and western attires.


Price: £3.99

Availability: Amazon UK/eBay

Quantity: 5ml

Pros:

• Cream eye shadow that stays longer without creasing or fading
• Easy to apply with a small flat brush, and then blend it in with finger 
• Doesn’t dry out the delicate skin on the eyelids
• Superb pigmentation
• Affordable for the quality and quantity
• Sturdy and chic packaging
• Can be used on its own as long wearing eye shadow or as base/primer for other eye shadows
• Does not fall out because of creamy texture
• Wearable shade for summer or spring
• Would flatter Indian Skin tones

Cons: 

• Need to apply primer or translucent powder before using on oily lids
• Jar is made up of glass so be careful while handling

EOTD created Smokey Look with black and this one.

Overall Rating:  4/5

Final Verdict: 

It is a brilliant, affordable, long lasting product and love the way it glides onto my eyelids. Would suit all skin tones and perfect for spring or summer. It gives a metallic sheen to the eyes which is very subtle n soft and makes your eyes look very gorgeous and stunning. It looks really pretty on its own all over the lid or create Smokey look as well. It is good value for money and very easy to put on as small amount is enough to blend out nicely. You should have at least one in your vanity.

Collection Cream Puff Lip Cream in Fairy Cake - Review !!

I love matte lip sticks !! when i saw these in boots while back there was an  3 for 2 offer goin on in collection 2000,i picked one to try..and i got 2 eye liners along with this. i reviewed the felt tip eye liner ,if u r interested you can check the review Here

collection 2000 is a budget friendly brand like MUA in UK,i heard lot of good reviews about collection concealers too..their concealers r in my wishlist now ..:)

Lets go to the details of this !!




Price : £2.99 for 5ml.

What it claims :

 Velvety soft, matte-finish lip cream.

- Enriched with a ultra moisturising, vitamin-rich formula, the creamy colour hugs lips to give your pout the perfect powdery finish.

It is Available in four shades - Cotton Candy, Fairy Cake, Powder Puff and Angel Delight

My Views :

As it is described ...it is soft,matte lip cream with good pigmentation.its a bright pinky coral shade.one or swipes enough to get the desired pout.it has nice vanilla smell...i love that !! it comes with a wand which makes the application easy.

i have extremely dry lips,so a lip balm is must for me before applying any lipstick.coming to this lip cream.as it's formula is like a cream it tends to settle dry patches while application.i just sets with my finger.it has average
 staying power around 2-3 hours on me .

and here is the swatch

Over all,its a matte lip cream with a sweet vanilla scent,good for the price i must say!!

Have you ever tried these lip creams?

Review : Auravedic Skin polish Sandal Turmeric !!

i love using Natural products which are chemical free !! i am very scary to use scrubs on my face as i have extremely sensitive skin.some times i just mix honey and sugar and scrub smoothly on my face  and rinse that.that is the only scrub i use most of the the times.when Auravedic kindly sent me this product to try i am excited for this..because it is 100% natural and paraben free.

Price : 180 INR for 50 gms

Shelf life: 2 yrs

Packaging: Plastic jar with screw lid

My experience :

I have combination and sensitive skin.how i use this product is ,i wet my face with water and gently scrub ,let it stay for few mins on my face after that rinse off.i am using this since 2 months ,once in a week...i can say   it softens and brightens my skin.i dont have any major acne.,i have some skin pigmentation on my face and neck.it works good. but don't expect the results instantly.it gives good results in long term use !!

Happy weekend everyone !!

Stay healthy and beautiful !!!
