The moment I made the transition from a sole beauty enthusiast to a complete wellness junkie was the moment I discovered luxury Ayurveda!

I was first introduced to the concept with the much pricey Forest Essentials brand some three to four years back. The sheer scope, variety, efficiency, and inherent goodness of the products hooked me to the wholesome experience.

Fast forward to now, I’m happy to announce that Luxury Ayurveda has come out with another promising yet not so pricey brand – Blue Nectar. Continue reading

I always love the idea of makeup with skincare powers and for that matter BB creams have been around for years. My love affair with Blemish balms or BB creams as they are so called started, when Maybelline launched the very first BB cream in India – Maybelline Clear Glow Bright Benefit Cream in 2012.

There’s no turning back since then and while I keep experimenting with different makeup products and BB creams; there’s something about Maybelline clear glow bright benefit cream that I keep turning back to it, time and again. Want to know the reason why? Well, read full review to discover. Continue reading

Where are my beauty addict girls, at?

Any guesses?

Yes, at Aplava.com – the new shopping website for beauty lovers and online shoppers.

I recently spent some hands-on time exploring the novel website and found the experience truly gratifying. If you still haven’t checked out the website, here’s a sneak-peak into the latest online beauty products store and my online shopping experience from them. Continue reading

Online shopping after a stressful week is one of my favorite ways to unwind. I’d relax on my bed, grab a cup of coffee and cruise through my favorite shopping website (read Jabong) looking for any affordable fashion find I can get myself as a budget weekend treat.

Sure, I do love visiting the mall and local fashion boutiques for big brands and custom-made Indian ethnic kurtis, but some of my favorite summer fashion kurtis don’t reside at big stores or boutiques. And if they do, the prices aren’t lucrative. Continue reading

I’m a huge fan of skincare products, especially sunscreen and Vitamin C! Because I feel, if your skin is naturally polished, you need less of makeup and less time in getting ready. So I think it’s actually owning and working to maintain the quality of your skin to look beautiful and flawless without much effort.

And for that matter, a daily dose of vitamin C is essential to prevent and protect any damage or imperfection – and in the process take your skin to that next level of ‘wow’ factor, where you receive compliments like “Wow..you’ve got wonderful skin”!

So while, I’m always on the look-out for new Vitamin C products, last month I got a chance to try Super C Vitamin Strong Serum from IQ Natural Skincare. Learning, it contains 20% L- ascorbic acid along with vitamin E and Ferulic acid, I knew at once, this is the one – even if it crushes my bank! Continue reading

Deciding on your bridal dress can be tricky. You want to pick something that’s catchy but you don’t want to risk the chance that you’ll look back in ten years and wonder what in the world you were thinking!

Quite frankly, with plentitude of options and multitude of designers out there in the market – all vying for attention with their swoon-worthy wedding dresses, I can’t blame the brides for turning into bridezillas, when selecting their bridal dress. Continue reading

It’s no secret that I’m a beauty blogger who is also a mom.

Again it’s no secret, your world changes upside down once you become a mom.

When I quit my day job to be a full time blogger, I believed the morning struggle to get ready to work is going to end. But what I didn’t anticipate as a mom at the time was that the daily struggle is not going to end but just going to change! Continue reading

Being aware of my craze for shopping and desire to have a baby girl, all my well-meaning friends and family members started advising me against buying too many baby clothes and outfits, the moment my baby daughter was born.

And it made sense also. After all, no matter how beautiful a baby dress you buy, it’s finally going to end up in shit and spit on it! Then clothes and toys are something that you already receive as gifts from friends and relatives.

So with all good intentions to save money and be a wise mom, I started surfing the net for baby essentials like diapers, wipes, and bibs – stuff that you usually don’t receive as gifts. But spotting, there was a sale going on at The Little Shopper, I just couldn’t control the urge. Continue reading
