The Story Behind:

I am a Dove a girl. I had been using Dove products much before I started experimenting with all other fancy brands and luxurious cosmetics. I was first introduced to Dove by my mom, when I was a teenager. Back then, there was no concept of body washes, bath gels, shower gels, body butters, cream baths and body lotions that we have now. The original Dove soap was the only soap that was gentle enough for my sensitive skin.

Dove stood me in good stead. Despite having a dry skin, I was often called as the girl with the ‘marble skin’ during my college days. Thanks to the ¼ moisturizing cream in this bathing bar, it used to leave my skin wonderfully soft, white, and smooth. Moving to Mumbai, however, I moved my loyalties.

The road to a beautiful skin doesn’t have to be difficult. But if you are recently back from a trip to the beach, flawless skin may seem like a distant dream. Although, catching waves at the beach means a lot of fun, it also means a great deal of tanning and irritating sun burns.

Tan is sexy, no doubt. I loved the glorious bronze look of my arms, legs, face and neck after I returned home from a lovely holiday in Thailand. But the penetrating sun rays also soak in the moisture from your skin, making it dry and frail. Within a week your beautiful bronze look is turned into ugly darkening and uneven skin tone.

Sorry, for taking so long in posting my next review. I was away for a long holiday in Thailand and was in no mood to let anything tamper with those sweet and sassy memories of the trip. So be it my love for reading and blogging, I was ready to sacrifice all to linger on to the luxuriating feeling of holiday and happiness! The beauty of holiday in Thailand is that it offers both adventure and relaxation in one bag.

Besides enjoying adventure sports, having fun at the beach, and reveling to the glory of a happening night-life, one of the things you must experience in Thailand is the magnificent relaxation of a Thai Body Massage. For years, I had only heard about those sublime Thai massages that not only instill in you a feeling of total relaxation but also make you aware of the sensuality and uniqueness of your own body.

With love in the air, winter is expected to be still around the corner. One of my favorite winter pass time is to cuddle in the quilt with some interesting book, freshly baked cookies, and beat the chill with copious mugs of hot creamy coffee. While, I love everything about winters – food, festivals, bonfires and coffee dates, my hair actually dread this cold weather. Frosty winds take all the moisture and luster off my hair.

I have normal to dry hair that become excessively dry and limp with the onset of winter season. And this time, I also started losing several of my precious strands to the harsh effects of the weather. Looking for ways to keep my hair shining and healthy during the winter season, I found this interesting write up: “6 Must Read Tips for Healthy Winter Hair” on a Home Shopping Network Site written by their beauty expert, Ann Colville Somma.

I know you all must be waiting for the final verdict on Godrej expert rich creme hair color, I reviewed here last month on behalf of my mother in law. Its been exactly a month she colored her hair, hence perfect time to pass final verdict on the product. So here I go:

Mom-in-law’s Hair Color History:

My mother-in-law uses hair color mainly to cover her grey patches. Its been more than 15 years, she has been coloring her hair mostly at home and sometimes in saloons (for some special occasion). All she wants is to create a natural look with a product that is convenient to use at home and lasts long.

The Story Behind:

When I first saw the advertisement for Godrej Expert Rich Creme Hair Color on TV, I could instantly identify with the situation to the one at home. The only difference is unlike Parizad (Mom in TV commercial) who was hesitant about coloring her hair, my mother-in-law who had always used traditional hair color was hesitant about the new creme hair colors in the market. Her biggest concern was the high price tag that comes with these creme hair colors.

Well, this is not just her concern but a concern of majority of Indian women. It was only when she suffered from a really bad scalp allergy from the ammonia in a hair color, I managed to convince her about the benefits of using a crème based hair color over chemical-laden traditional hair colors and got Garnier Color Naturals for her.
