Transition to Fall Makeup with Luxola & FOTD

As the summer is ready to melt into falls, everything we use from skincare to makeup needs a transition for coming season.
The upcoming season decidedly promises to bring on darker mood. Trading in lush textures of makeup products is my call. Be it the thick moisturizers that would restore the scaly dryness of my skin in single usage or swapping powders with creams that may spring up dry patches; I am getting ready to gradually glide up my complete look without sacrificing the glow :)

For this Transition to Fall Makeup Look, I have taken time to stockpile some exclusive products from Makeup section of Luxola that I had been eyeing upon since ages and feeling on cloud nine now to lay my hands on them :)

Before I experiment on myself with my amateur hands, a glance at the products will enthrall you for sure..and will also make it obvious why am I feeling proud owning some best of cosmetics ;)

A starter kit exclusively packed for basic makeup essentials including Signature Lipstick in Raspberry, Incredible Lash Mascara and Whitening Base SPF 35 is a not-to-miss combo pack. The Whitening Base is meant for offering summer skin damage with flawless coverage and refining skin texture before applying any makeup. Incredible Lash Mascara creates beautiful fluttering lashes and intensify your look.
Luscious Discovery Kit including Lipstick, Mascara, Whitening Base


Brow & Eye Liner Pencil is my versatile tool to show up the brows neatly kempt, precisely filled and a bit bushy as the demand of trendy October..On the usual days, it can always be used as an eye liner pencil too.
Color Icon Brow & Eye Liner Pencil from Wet n Wild
A smudge-proof, water-resistant liquid eyeliner that ensures error-free application when you line your eyes inside n outside is the quicker way to get that ultra magical blink of eye.
H2O Proof Felt Tip Liquid Eyeliner from Wet n Wild
Here is one of the most hyped product from Sleek Makeup range i.e. the slim palette of i-Divine Eye Primer which is generously loaded with a dozen of shades to satiate your lust for excellent makeup looks every time either by single application or by giving a layered effect mixing up with other shadows.
i-Divine Eye Primer from Sleek Makeup
An all-skin-appropriate lip palette is the one I adored that can perfectly create natural to bold appearances and allows me to switch from day to night looks effortlessly. Making your lips fall appropriate can be done by deepening the lipcolor, simply blotting it up for giving matte look and playing with two or more colors to invent a shade that goes with your skin tone.

Hope my Luxola beauty haul successfully gripped your attention and here is how I applied these products to create two fall-appropriate looks ...

Ethitar Coaltar Soap Review

Hello All

I am reviewing Ethihar Coal Tar Soap from Ethicare Remedies which is an antiseptic soap for the treatment of skin diseases.
Price: Rs. 59
Weight: 70 gms
Shelf Life: 2 yrs
Key Ingredients:
Coaltar, Soap Noodles, Salicylic Acid.
Packaging:
The soap is packed in a transparent polythene which is kept in a black cardboard box.
The Ethihar Coaltar soap is a chocolate brown color soap bar. It has the soap name engraved on it. This soap is basically a medicinal skin care product made to cure skin issues like psoriasis and eczema. These skin problems may resemble some sort of allergies and may target a person in any age and the skin shows rash-like condition with irritation.
This soap is enriched with adequate moisturizers because the affected skin needs to retain lubrication for timely healing.
Salicylic Acid used in the soap is one of the most effective treatment for these skin issues by helping to soften and remove psoriasis scales.
Coaltar is again a ready remedy to reduce the inflammation, itching on affected skin and it also improves appearance of skin. 
Soap Noodles is a source of deep moisture as they are usually made of vegetable oils and are an essential base for making the required composition blend for soap.
The soap is not scented very strong because it is recommended to use fragrance free bathing products for people who suffer from these skin diseases.  
This soap is designed to help heal the affected skin area. So it is not meant to be used like our usual bathing bar on daily basis, but should be used by a person who is dealing with skin issues at the time of requirement. It is strongly cautioned to stop using this soap bar as and when acne or eczema symptoms start to subside and do not use until symptoms reappear.
Overall it is premium yet affordable product that helps to treat the skin problems mentioned above.

P.S. This product is not tested on myself, but I have stated the actual experience of a family member.

Rakhi Bhai Behan Ka Tyohaar

I may not say it always, but whenever I say I mean it ...
"The memories may fade with passing time, but the bond we share will only grow stronger.." 

Writing for #selfiewithsibling contest by Jabong.com made me say above lines again to my bro.

The loving occasion of Raksha Bandhan is actually the best time to reminisce fondly those wonderful moments I have spent with my siblings. Because despite being many many years younger to me, he is the one who holds my lowered spirits in bad times. When I have a reason to smile and celebrate, I message him first of all and he is readily available to make it more meaningful.

But yes, we are no exception and can't end up without hate moments too. He is pissed off so easily when I comment something 'not likable' on his social accounts and he grumbles for having an 'interfering' elder sister.... He finds it irritating when I advise him not to be an impulsive buyer and make choices within specific budget.... He thinks I am old-fashioned if I'm offended seeing him clicked with female classmates...He puts a full-stop on our conversation saying "Not Again", when I wish to motivate him to give more time to studies and work harder... He gives me furious looks if I am spying on his phone...Gosh!! should I write all this here!! I know he won't spare me today after he reads this post but I actually wanna see his reaction ;) {Hope God is there to save me :P }

Even when life has led us along different paths now, we are always close looking out for each other (thanks to some awesome phone apps too) ... He really has the virtuosity to beautify my life. He laughs at my funny selfies, edits them making me look fairer and then asks me for a "Thank You" that I never say ;) He keeps me updated with latest technology hacks and makes sure the path I am travelling on as a blogger is smooth n guided. I know deep in my heart who will come to my rescue when no one offers me a helping hand. 
Though I don't need an occasion to show my gratefulness to him but every moment of my life is a blessing to have a 'monster' around me who possesses a clear heart. Even if I searched the world over, there cannot be a better brother than him. And Raksha Bandhan is the day when we deserve clicking #selfiewithsibling and capturing one more such moment of happiness :)
I wish my bro all the happiness and loads of success through every side in his life!!

IHA Honey Moisturizing Dry Skin Bathing Bar Review

Hi Everyone

Here's again a treat for those who can't resist trying natural handmade soaps like me. I have been using many skin care products from the brand IHA and find them all drool worthy. Just like I'm in love with all of them, it’s hard not to buzz about this one too. I would review their Honey Moisturizing Dry Skin Bathing Bar today.
About the Product:
IHA Honey Dry Skin Bathing Bar is a rich creamy Body Wash that cleanses, moisturizes and soothes dry, itchy, sensitive and irritated skin. Its natural actives, moisturizers and emollients like honey, milk, mango and kokum butter provide natural moisture balance to your skin and you emerge from your bath feeling soft well-moisturized and delicately scented with the sweet aroma of Honey and Orange.

Complete Ingredients List:
Each gram contains Madhu (Honey) 50mg., Neem Oil (Azadirachta Indica) 50mg., Grihatkumari Leaf Extract (Aloe Vera) 50mg., Karanja Oil (Pongamia Pinata) 50mg., Mango Butter (Mangifera Indica) 20mg., Kokum Butter (Garcinia Indica) 20mg., Condensed Milk (Cow’s Milk) 20Mg., Orange Peel (Citrus Reticulata) 2.5mg., Glycerol 30mg., Fragrance.
Price: Rs 140 
Weight: 125 gms
Shelf Life: 3 yrs
Packaging:
The soap bar comes in cardboard carton with every possible detail on how to use it, what has gone into its formulation, price n quantity etc. The soap bar itself is neatly wrapped in clear sheet and has a label stuck on it with the brand logo and name of variant written along.
My Experience:
Most of us know that honey is used in preparation of many skin care products and it does wonders to retain moisture in the skin. Many of you might be looking for a honey based soap during winter season when the harsh cold weather takes a toll on your skin, but I am the one with such dry skin that I need to be very selective for products that may lock in moisture in my skin. Highly impressed with IHA range of products, I picked this soap with great expectation. 
The soap is brown in color with some darker swirls on brown within the soap bar which looks amazingly attractive. I could not actually relate the fragrance to honey and orange exactly, but its a sober blend of other ingredients too. A faint smell remains on skin for some time and then fades away. The soap bar is quite a good portion, so I don't mind cutting it into two halves and saving one piece for later use.
The soap is creamy as you hold it in your hand as well as when you rub it on your wet skin. It doesn't melt excessively, so one bar would last quite long. It lathers much more if you use loofah for rubbing it on skin. The skin feels soft and nourished post bath. I find it too mild to be used for my child also. Since the soap is enriched with various emollients like kokum butter, mango butter, cow's milk etc., I dared to use it on my face also. But I didn't rubbed the soap bar directly on facial skin, rather rubbed it between my palms, quickly applied on face and rinsed it without leaving it on my face for longer. I didn't experience any side effects, breakouts etc.
The soap bar is pH balanced so it doesn't disturb the natural moisture balance of the skin.
Though at times I need to follow up applying a moisturizer to cure dryness of my skin, so I prefer using the Skin Dew Moisturizer from the same brand which has been reviewed here. 

Pros: 

  • Deeply moisturizes the skin.
  • Doesn't cause itching or stretchy feel.
  • Suited for dry to normal skin as well as sensitive skin.
  • Doesn't melt easily.
  • Smells nice.
  • Excellent ingredients including Kokum butter, mango butter, cow's milk
  • No animal testing.
  • Decent Price.
  • Easy online availability.


Cons:
None.

To sum it up, IHA Honey Moisturizing Dry Skin Bathing Bar is not an expensive buy, but much more than a superfood to come up with skin smoothening results. Including it in your daily bath routine with make your skin feel free from impurities with gentle cleaning.
