Do you ever get on a kick where you can’t stop listening to a song? Well, I’m feeling the same kick with my new Le Petit Marseillais body wash in Cherry Blossom scent. It’s hands down the best extra gentle formula I’ve ever used and I just can’t help raving about this product!

Why? Continue reading

This review was shamefully overdue! In the sense, I have had this DIY Carbon Coco teeth whitening kit with activated charcoal for a while but I just couldn’t get to use it. I know as much silly as it sounds but the truth is, after my wisdom teeth came in, my teeth started shifting.

My front teeth are uneven and few of them are a bit chipped and jagged and as a consequence I feel self-conscious about my smile sometimes! I know they don’t look that bad, but it’s a personal issue I have with my teeth – I hate giving them any TLC or attention. So I was kind of avoiding all the trouble!

But this is where the story goes interesting for me and probably amusing for you! Continue reading

Without a doubt, Clarins Beauty Flash Balm is one of the most coveted and talked about beauty products in the beauty world. The product that is specially formulated to cover and lift dull, tired skin is a cult classic from the brand. Living up to its claims and hype, Clarins beauty flash balm is one such beauty product that has clearly stood the test of time with an ever growing fan following.

You won’t believe, but it’s true – the balm that costs a whopping $48 for a 50 ml tube, sold on an average of one tube every seven minutes during the first half of last year alone! I first got to know about this product years ago in one of Lisa Elridge’s recommendations. But I happened to get my hands on this product only now – thanks to hubby, who picked it up from one of his trips to Paris. Continue reading

I’m a fiery fan of Vitamin C, especially topical vitamin C serum for my face and neck. I’ve gone through more bottles of vitamin C serum than glasses of orange juice over the years that I can count. No doubt, it’s one of the most recommended products you’ll find in my skincare arsenal. It works for all skin types and all skin conditions.

And at the beginning of this month, I have a new addition to these recommendations: Vya Naturals Vitamin C Serum – a 100% parabens and sulphate free serum containing 20% vitamin C to reduce uneven skin tone, dark spots and hyperpigmentation. Interested? Read full review to know more about the product. Continue reading

As a passionate skincare junkie, I have toyed with multiple face creams. I have spent years alternating between an intense moisturizer, a brightening treatment, and a retinol cream. But I’d never been able to treat my myriad skin concerns with just one product.

Until recently, when I tried this Eladi hydrating Ayurvedic face cream from Kama Ayurveda and it completely changed the game for me. This super nourishing Ayurvedic face cream does it all – from deep hydration to plumping fine lines to brightening dull complexion – I wake up feeling soothed and radiant! Continue reading

I always thought myself to be a generous soul – kind enough to lend you a tenner, buy you some chocolates, let you have all my ice-cream, and even give you my best dating dress! But fast forward, a few years into beauty blogging and I’ve turned into a possessive she-wolf!

No, no, don’t get me wrong – you can still borrow my books, wear all my party dresses, gulp down my last drink or take away stuff from my kitchen but don’t you ever, ever come between me and my treasured beauty products! Seriously, nothing annoys me more than someone digging their dirty fingers into my precious creams. Continue reading

Sometimes, all those hair loss lotions and potions just don’t cut it, which is when you need to take a serious look into your diet. Without a healthy diet, hair can become dull, thin and start falling. In fact, poor nutrition, including vitamin deficiencies, is a major factor of hair loss.

So, if you feel your hair loss is due to poor diet, the best form of treatment is to begin improving your diet and adding the necessary vitamins and minerals. Biotin, amino acids, essential fatty acids, iron, zinc, sulfur, vitamins A, C & E etc. are regarded as the some of the best nutrients for healthy hair.

So instead of relying on hair loss shampoos, lotions, potions and expensive salon treatments, all you need to do to reverse your hair loss is adding vitamin rich foods to your diet or using a good quality hair supplement. Continue reading

You may or may not be planning to visit South Korea this year, but you might be wanting to include Korean products in your skincare routine. As for me, I’m still on that Korean skincare and beauty kick after using Innisfree and The Face Shop products.

So carrying on with my Korean beauty obsession, here’s review of a new skincare serum I’m currently using from an innovative Korean cosmetic skincare brand – iUNIK. I was approached by the brand a few months back asking if I would like to try any of their products.

There was no obligation for review but since I truly loved their products and already using this Propolis Vitamin Synergy serum diligently in my skincare routine, I genuinely wanted to share my feedback about this new brand and their products with you guys. Continue reading
