Quick review- The Body Shop Facial Brush with lid and Exfoliating bath gloves !

Hello lovelies !
A quick post on two exfoliating equipment thats been with me for quite some time now.
The first one is The Body Shop's facial brush with lid .

A very tiny , compact brush that is accompanied with a lid. Promises to help scrub away all those dead cells when used alone or in conjunction with a face scrub. Initially I was quite in awe of this tiny thing and much happy with its affordable price tag of Aed 15 only , but gradually it started to feel more rough on the skin and I felt it was a bit too abrasive as well less effective on my blackheads. Though I look reach for it  less nowadays , I do think its extremely handy for travel.


The other one is The Body Shop Exfoliating glove .
Now this is such a cutie. It fits snug into your hand and is very useful in the shower to scrub yourself away . Does not require much technique and is pretty much hassle-free. It was not until recently that I also discovered how amazing it is on blackheads. I scrub my nose gently with a bit of face scrub on with this glove and I really feel extremely clean afterwards ! I use it in the shower almost every other day and cleaning it is very easy as well.I find it much more convenient and useful than a loofah . Totally recommend this !

Do comment below if you have either come across these or any other exfoliating accessories that were useful !
Until next time

Dandruff woes- How to treat persistent and stubborn dandruff.

Hello my lovelies!

Nothing more embarrassing and frustrating than a flaky scalp and white flakes all over your hair and shoulders .They seem to be a part of every household , especially us poor mortals living in the middle east . Before we get on to talking in depth on dandruff, there are a few things we need to sort first . ( This post is going to long , so grab your cuppa before you begin !)

Do u really have dandruff or is it just dry flaky scalp ?
Test 1

 Place a dark coloured cloth / paper/ mat on the floor and comb your hair downwards , flipping your hair upside down -If what you see are small and dry white flakes-you mostly have dry scalp and maybe residue buildup with products you may be using for your hair
-If what you get are large,slightly greasy flakes -you most likely have dandruff.

Test 2

Apply some body lotion over areas of itching scalp overnight and wash off the next day with regular shampoo , remember to condition. If dry scalp was the culprit, you will find a lot of relief in what you just did. That will also help rule out if there is dandruff in real or no .

Test 3
Look out for scaling around the eyebrows and eyelashes , sides of the nose , behind the ears or even the "v" of the neck and beard for men. Scaling and dry patches over these areas along with itchy , flaky scalp is most likely seborrhoea/dandruff .

Ok ! So now we know what we have . What next ?

If dry scalp is your issue -

-Brush regularly twice a day with a mixed bristle brush-a  brush with two different bristles will help distribute scalp oils throughout while exfoliating dry flakes at the same time .
-Use two- three drops of peppermint oil or tea tree oil in your regular shampoo .
-Limit use of  artificial hair products or direct heat.

Now, if you are convinced what you suffer from is indeed dandruff, then what you would need is a comprehensive , holistic approach involving medicated as well as non medicated treatments.

My picks under available medicated options-

1-Antifungal agents -fungus being a common cause of dandruff,treatment with a good antifungal usually puts the issue at bay.
Eg-Nizoral
2-Coal tar-The most effective yet the most difficult to use with extremely dry hair as a common complaint. This particular one has coal tar but not the offensive side effects.
Eg- Neutrogena T-Gel Anti dandruff shampoo
3-Selenium sulfide- Works in ways similar to the coal tar sans the odour or aesthetic issues.
Eg-Selsun Blue

My picks under non-medicated treatments available:-

1-Zinc pyrithione- Both antibacterial and antifungal efficiency    Eg-Head and Shoulders Anti Dandruff Shampoo

         The Body Shop Ginger Anti-dandruff Shampoo
         Matrix Biolage Scalp Therapie Anti-Dandruff Shampoo

          LUSH Soak and Float solid shampoo

Why do people give up half way before seeing any results?

• Strong odour of the shampoos
• Extreme dryness of hair as an aftermath
• No immediate results.

Now, how do we come around this ?

An anti-dandruff shampoo must NEVER be used as a regular shampoo all over the hair. It is a spot medication. The issue is only with the scalp and the rest of hair need not be covered. The ideal way to use a medicated anti dandruff shampoo (Selsun , Nizoral , Coal tar etc ) is 

• -Apply a bit on a cotton pad and rub that in to the scalp
• -Keep that on for five mins 
• -Wash rest of the hair with your regular shampoo
• -Alternate a medicated shampoo with a non medicated one through the week-use the medicated one only once or twice a week and rest of the days the non one.
• -Alternate one medicated shampoo with another within two weeks to prevent resistance.

Another killer ingredient when used in right proportions that bring about good changes is Apple cider vinegar (ACV) .   1/3 ACV and 2/3 water in a spray bottle and sprayed all over scalp fifteen minutes before a hair wash at least once a week , literally keeps dandruff away for days and the scalp squeaky clean. 

Once in a while,for severe resistant dandruff , a short course of a dermatologist prescribed topical corticosteroid helps in arresting the inflammation but make sure this step is taken only AFTER consulting a dermatologist .

Sometimes , what may seem as a very persistent dandruff may actually be a more troublesome condition called Scalp psoriasis. If you find your dandruff not receding within 2-3 months of the above mentioned protocol, you might want to consult a dermatologist and enquire what your condition actually is.

Dandruff is a persistent condition and requires you to be patient in its approach. If one treatment modality does not work , try another. Every individual has individual responses to dandruff treatment. With time , you will work out a formula that suits you  best. Feel free to always ask your dermatologist for further options . 

Whew ! That was long ! Do you ail from dandruff ? What have you used and has it helped/ not helped you ? Do comment below!

Until next time ,

Rimmel London Brow This Way kit -Reviews and comparisons !

Hello my lovelies !

It was not until about 3-4 years that I really started enjoying trying out various products but only about a year or so since I realised how such a seemingly trivial thing like eyebrows can frame a face so well !

I had always only known of an eyebrow pencil that came with a tiny brush on one end as the major eyebrow grooming kit . Later on , as part of extensive reading , I got to know of higher end brands that do wonderful stuff for brows , but I didn't think spending $$$ for an eyebrow kit would be very smart and was on the lookout for more affordable brands to come out with their versions.

Now there r two kinds of brows in the world. One that is sparse and have gaps , the other that is bushy and needs taming .

For people with bushy , thick brows a brow mascara really helps in keeping those tiny hairs in place through the day .

I don't pluck, tweeze or trim my eyebrows . They have a lot of gaps in between and I also carry a trophy of a stitch mark from childhood on one of them. It was a year ago that I laid my hands on the Rimmel London Brow This Way Kit in the shade dark brown.

The kit comes with two compartments- A dark brown compact powder and a dark brown wax. Two brushes included-a slanted lining brush and a mascara spoolie.

I apply the brown shadow first lining my brows and leaving the first initial bit , so it doesn't look too made up and then take the same brush for the wax and go thru the brows again . I brush the brows with the mascara wand to keep the brown on fleek and in shape . I really love how this  ups my brow game without making it look too artificial that a pencil would or too sticky that a brow mascara gel would .

I bought mine when there was sale at Centrepoint, so I got mine for about Dhs 30 about a year ago and there is still a ton of product left to last me forever .

Ive seen a lot of other affordable brands come out with brow products as well as high end ones like Bobbi brown or Anastasia Beverly hills . For me this worked at such an economical price and it fits the bill perfectly.

Shades available -002 (mid brown )
                             003 (dark brown ) - (suits us dark                                                                                haired women )

Availability:-

• Middle east - Carrefour, Boots,                                                                         Centrepoint,Max
• For readers in the Uk- Buy here !
• For readers in the US -Buy here !

Would I recommend you to try this ?
YES !

Is there a brow product that you use ? How do you like it ?

P.s There is also a Rimmel brow this way gel mascara ...Don't get that !!

Until next time ,

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen SPF 45: Review and comparisons !

Hello lovelies !

For most parts of the world, summer has passed and cooler climates have peeped in and with that , the very few of us who did (or try to ) use  a sunscreen sparingly ,have thrown them into the farthest nooks of our closets. Sun damage is all year through and the effects extend beyond just tanning.

Sunlight that hits us contain UVAs and UVBs.The damage they cause is different . 

UVAs:-                                                    UVBs

Remain throughout the year.       Mostly strong during summer
Penetrate glass and windows       Does not penetrate
Cause wrinkles and thick skin     Causes tanning
Even penetrates a cloudy day      Does not penetrate

Thus,a sunscreen becomes imperative to be used throughout the year and a must to have a broad spectrum coverage .The single most common reason a large number of people avoid sunscreens is because of the white greasy cast a typical sunscreen leaves us with.




For me , a sunscreen must be

• Affordable
• Have broad spectrum coverage 
• Have a transparent and dry finish 
• Absorb immediately
• Does not make me look greasy
• Have a decent SPF

Ive struck luck with the Neutrogena ultra sheer broad spectrum sunscreen . It ticks all what is required and provides the most sheer, matte finish for a sunscreen I have ever used. Use it alone or under your moisturiser/makeup and be at peace . They come in various SPF strengths and in reality , an SPF of 30 and 45 is not going to make the worlds difference,so either would suffice.

What is SPF?  SPF = Sun Protection Factor.  The SPF number tells you how long you can stay in the sun without burning from UVB rays.   Example:  SPF 15.  If you normally start to burn at 15 minutes, SPF 15 lets you stay in the sun ~15x longer (3.5 hours) without burning.  )

Middle east- All hypermarkets - Dhs 58
                      Boots pharmacy -  Dhs 62

So, slap on some sunscreen and enjoy the weather while it lasts !

Until next time,

Q and A regarding sun protection and damage reversal !

What is an apt SPF for toddlers/children?
SPF 30-50 

Are spray-on sunscreens recommended for children ?
It is better to avoid.Although these products may contain protection from sunburn—they may also be damaging for infants and young children to breathe in these chemicals.

Is sunscreen only effective/ needed in the summers ?
The American Academy of Dermatology recommends that you use a sunblock every day all year round.  Clouds, glass windows, and surfaces such as sand, pavement, sidewalks, water, snow and ice will also reflect UV radiation.  (i.e., these types of surfaces DO NOT BLOCK UV radiation.)

What do I look for in a sunscreen ?
Choose BROAD SPECTRUM products which offer protection against both UVA and UVB rays.  Make sure your sunscreen contains at least one of these ingredients: Zinc, Titanium dioxide, Avobenzene,  or Mexoryl SX.

Any particular time of the day I should be extra careful ?
Avoid 10 AM-3 PM sun exposure times.

What foods are rich in phytochemicals that help in reversing skin damage?
Prunes, raisins, red grapes, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, plums, cherries, kiwi fruit, citrus fruits, red and orange peppers, tomatoes, kale, spinach, brussel sprouts, alfalfa sprouts, broccoli florets, onions, eggplant,  avocados, carrots,  pumpkin seeds.

Mac Strobe cream- Review, ways to wear it and a possible dupe !

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Hello my lovelies !

I am a sucker for healthy, glowing, dewy skin ....now if your not born with it, you must definitely fake it !! For me, a healthy looking , moderately unitoned skin, with a few imperfections seeping thru is an ideal every day look. That and some mascara, some eyeliner and I'm good to go !

So..what is this strobe cream ?

"Strobing" literally means to highlight. Ive seen various liquid highlighters from across common brands like Revlon and higher end ones like Benefit. Most highlighting creams will just help illuminate ...most of the times making it look very obvious .Thats where the strobe cream is different .It is THE most subtle yet effective highlight I've laid my hands on.No glitters.No shine.Not evident at all.But at the same time, provides that "fresh" and "Awake" look. And it doesn't stop there.Its filled with botanical antioxidants and is an excellent moisturiser for tired, dull skin .

 MAC's claims :

"The ultimate quick fix for the skin. Super-powered with potent botanicals; de-snoozes, de-stresses, moistens, freshens and boosts the look of dull, flat or tired-looking skin with a fully loaded vitamin zap and a mega dose of green tea. Brightens and clarifies with iridescent particles and antioxidants. Enhances the effects of light on all skin and in all lighting conditions from sunlight to spotlight."

My take on the product:

It is an absolute win -win product. It does exactly what it claims.For me , its my moisturiser,my primer, my dose of antioxidants ,my instant pick-me-up all in one.

Ways to use :
-A tiny drop mixed in with moisturiser  (dry skin)
-A  little amount spotted all over face in place of moisturiser (normal skin)
-A tiny bit mixed in with foundations or BB creams 

-After BB cream / foundations , a tiny spot applied over                                                       the cheek bones 

Is there a dupe ?

For me a product is a dupe only when it:-

-Performs exactly the same for a fraction of the price of the original product.

-Last as long

-Must also be substantially cheaper.

"L'Oreal Magic lumi base  pure light primer" is an excellent dupe-when what you want out of the product is primarily only the highlighting benefit. It is more opaque , more greasy and has tiny bit shimmers-but will perform well if only used as a highlighter under cheekbones or mixed with foundations.

 What it will not do is:-
-Perform as a moisturiser  so cannot be worm alone

• -More opaque and on the  pearly side so darker  skin tones will not find it  too compatible
• -As you can see,the  strobe cream is more  pinkier and less opaque.

I'd suggest everyone to try the strobe cream at your nearest MAC stores...wear it alone...walk outside in the sun...see how it feels.You are sure to love how it looks and feels on you !

Price of the Mac Strobe cream- 140 Dhs / Rs.1950 for 50 ml
Price of the L'Oreal primer- 90 Dhs for 20 ml.

Until next time

Different types of eyeliners and how to differentiate !

How a kohl liner is different from a normal eyeliner pencil:

A kohl liner is intended to be softer, smoother, smudgier and ideally meant for the lower water line . 
 Ideal for soft,smudged,sultry smokey eyes

An eyeliner pencil if not specified to be kohl is waxier, harsher and less prone to smudging.
Ideal for upper lash lines or lower when you want a clean ,crisp look.

       
   When to use a gel eyeliner:

A gel eyeliner is more precise , more sharp , more glossy black and long wearing without smudges.Ideal for winged looks or while attempting a feline flick. Best method to ensure a smooth application is to first line the eyes with a pencil and then trace above with a gel eyeliner. Differs from liquid eyeliners in being extremely quick drying, leaving no scope for errors.
Ideal for classy, smooth ,sharp lines for the upper lash line or an intensely long wearing line on the lower.

    A liquid eyeliner and its uses:

A liquid eyeliner is very forgiving .You make a mistake and its extremely easy to wipe off with a moisturised cotton tip. It gives you a very precise line but is neither long wearing nor prone to smudging and a  smudged liquid eyeliner is extremely unpolished .Totally unsuitable for the lower lash line.
Ideal for those with adept hands in applying eyeliners on the upper lash line.

A twist up or one that requires sharpening ?

That's a tricky question...but on a wide note, 

A twist up pencil is :-          A wooden pencil is :- -Convenient                         -Inconvenient
-Less maintenance                -More maintenance
-Gets blunt too soon             -Can be sharpened                                             to a point.
                   
It really depends on where you intend to use your pencil!!

Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the blackest of them all ?!-Top eyeliner pencils

Hello my lovelies !

A much awaited and a much requested post this! The one question I've been repeatedly asked regarding makeup has always been.." What's a good eyeliner that's black ,affordable and doesn't smudge ?"

A quick eyeliner and a lip gloss sums up the makeup routine of an enormous amount of busy women.So, it becomes imperative to search and find that one eyeliner pencil that one can find nirvana in.

Eyeliners are of many types and consistencies and a trip to the beauty store will only confuse you further. Let us take a look and break down the various types available and what they are best used for .

    
 Types of eyeliners: (broadly speaking )

• Eyeliner pencils and Kohls
• Gel eyeliners in a pot or pen form 
• Liquid eyeliner

For further description on each type , read this

My picks on good decent, performing products under each category

Kohl pencils- For a smudged , sultry smokey eye

• Prestige Long wearing smokey eye pencil 
• Rimmel Scandaleyes waterproof kajal 
• MAC Eye kohl in smolder
• Bourjois Smokey effect pencil 
• Maxfactor Kohl pencil
• Revlon Photoready kajal eye pencil 

Eyeliner pencils - For the upper and lower lash line when smudging is not desired

• NYX Glide on, stay on , turn on eye pencil 
• Prestige Ultra precision slim eyeliner

Gel liners-

• L'Oreal Super liner 24H waterproof gel eyeliner 
• Maybelline Eye studio lasting gel eyeliner

• L'Oreal Super liner (Black)
• Prestige Blackest black intense liquid eyeliner pen
• Diana of London super fine intense black eyeliner pen
• Rimmel Exaggerate liquid eyeliner 

The next question is...What are some names in this huge whirlwind market of eyeliners ! The following are my picks in each category and an added advantage of all of them being extremely affordable (sans MAC ) in no particular order.As you can see, all of these pencils have received much love from me and a pick from any of these will not disappoint .

Now for some swatches !! The following are some of my favourite kohl pencils and the colour payoff they provide in one and multiple swatches. 

  

                        

No eyeliner for me is considered good enough if it doesn't stand the test of water.So here, I have smudged my eyeliners vigorously ,washed them under water and then soap.The last pic is what remains after a good wash with my cleanser.And that, my lovelies is what you want.You want an eyeliner that stays put ,endures mechanical rubbing but washes off with cleansing and does not give u panda eyes ! 

I'm sure you'll find an eyeliner that suits your pocket and your needs from this not-so-exhaustive list :) Do let me know if you have a personal favourite !

Until next time,

xoxo.

Battle of BB creams !! - Who emerges a winner ?

Hello all you lovelies !!

So , as was promised in the inception of my blog, I will only review products or give my opinion on them after a detailed period of use and in all possible circumstances !Each of the below mentioned product has been loved and put to use for a good 3 months .

Being the beauty hoarder that I am, I have in varying times , got myself BB creams to find my Holy grail product....And have I ? Read on to find out ..


BB creams in literal mean "Beauty Balms" .What they are in real is just a tinted moisturiser basically with some add on goodie products for skincare . For an average day , it should provide a neat base without looking too cake-y or made up.

 BB creams in general make the following claims and lets see which one really lives up to every expectation.

-Minimise the appearance of pores
-Evens out skin tone
-Controls shine all day
-Smoothen out skin tone
-Prevent blemishes
-Gives all day coverage
-Oil free formula if specified.

Yeah. That is quite a handful of claims but realistically speaking a good light to medium coverage with some minimising effect on pores , an overall uniform skin tone and an ability to keep the oils at bay is what I would look for in my ideal BB cream.Without much ado , lets get to the review.

1- Garnier BB cream Miracle Skin Perfector for combination to oily skin in the shade "Medium".

This one was released as a sequel to the the original Garnier BB cream that was such a rage .Since I belong to the world of combination to oily skin , I went for this in order to try out.

Applied one stroke on the left
blended well on the right 

It minimises pores and conceals imperfections , does give the skin a naturally smooth ,flawless finish and also blends in with skin tone.So whats missing ??  It does not keep the skin matte or oil free , unfortunately and thats the whole purpose of this product. If one needs additional mattifying powders to keep oil at bay , thats not making our lives easier , is it? For those of you living in cooler climates, and does not mind the occasional powdering ,this is indeed a good product for it lives to almost all of its claims.

My rating-3.75 /5




2-Rimmel BB cream Matte 9-in-1 Skin Perfecting Super Makeup in the shade "Medium".

Applied one stroke on the left
blended well on the right 

One of the first cosmetic brands to release a good coverage BB cream in the Middle east. A very affordable price tag, and a heavy name of "9 in 1" to accompany it. Since it being a cosmetic brand originally, the coverage you get is amazing.Skin tone is unified and pores get smaller in appearance .Oil control is not too bad.The only personal issue I had with this product was the shade .Medium turned out to be dark and light was too light.If I were to mix the two , probably I would get an appropriate shade but thats just so troublesome !

My rating -4/5










3-MAC Studio Moisture Tint with Spf 15 in the shade "Medium dark".

Applied one stroke on the left
blended well on the right 

Now I do have a soft spot for MAC. Lets not hide that.I had a huge baggage of expectation while i purchased this product.The shade matched well.And i honestly didn't think of anything that could go wrong with it then. To my dismay though ! The product in itself was quite thick and felt like a light weight foundation on its own.it applied quite well but through the day , I noticed how oxidised it got on me! I surely looked darker and more orange and thats not something I would have wanted out of this  :( Well,I could make it work with some effort and a bit more additional powders but then it completely beats the purpose right ?

My rating-3/5









4-Ponds Age Miracle BB+ Anti ageing BB  cream in the shade "Beige".

Applied one stroke on the left
blended well on the right 

This happened to be the most affordable product among the three and with that my expectations were also very reasonable.Ponds releases BB creams in two formulations. A pink tube with whitening effects and a red one with anti ageing. I opted for the red one. I slapped this one with my clean bare fingers andI instantly loved how it merged on my skin ! This product for me , is a God send and the shades they have is a big relief from the usual "fair-medium-dark". Obviously all the skin tones in the world cannot be grouped in three such trivial markings .The shade beige is a perfect colour for my NC 42 skin. You also get a whopping 30 Spf which means no need to slap on a separate sunscreen !
All in all , I am in love :)

My rating-4/5

Top pick mascaras that stay true to their claims !

Hello lovelies !


In our quest for the perfectly curled ,super long and well defined black lashes , we often get caught in the loop , trying almost everything our tiny hands can reach...I am a self claimed beauty hoarder and trust me, I have tried almost everything that is out there in the market ..These products are not new in my vanity and thats exactly why I have full faith while commenting on them. These have been loved for atleast 2-3 months each...so lets get to the review !

In no particular order..

1.Prestige Cosmetics Total Intensity Beyond lashes Dramatic precision Mascara

And it all lies in the wand my dears.....Do u see the beauty of this little thing here ? The pine-tree shaped wand ensures the tip of the mascara gets to the innermost eyelashes while the big broad outer end makes sure takes care of the end lashes....the result? Well curved ,equally distributed Mascara at its blackest black.....I love this one !

Highlight feature- Special cone shaped wand for uniform access


2. Maybelline Falsies Volume Express Mascara:-

This doesn't really need an intro....but for those of us who were under a very huge rock for quite sometime....this is the very famous "Falsies" mascara from Maybelline.  Again....its all in the wand...As is quite visible...this beauty comes double edged....A short straight side and a concave rounder side...The spoon side is to be used first..followed by the flat side...and you will really get what they claim ....lashes that look almost as though they were false ones! I love love love  this one for evenings !


Highlight feature-Double edged wand for both length and volume


3.Rimmel Glam'eyes Day 2 Night Mascara :-

If using the double edged wand of the Maybelline is too much of a hassle for you, Rimmel comes with the perfect solution giving us two brush ends in one mascara !! Of all the drugstore or affordable makeup that does this kind of mascaras now, I have found Rimmel excelled in both quality and application. The two wands are separate and helps in easy transition between day time and evening looks. A must try !


Highlight feature- Two wands in one for an easy transition from day to night.



P.S For all my readers based in the GCC ,all of these are available at Lifestyle, Centrepoint !

Are you an ardent user of Mascara ? What are your favourite brands ? Do comment below, I would love to know !!
