My Take On This Product:

Recently I discovered two Faces Canada counters my place, :) While checking their Glam on range, I came across the Glam on Duo eye shadow duos.I didn't much like the combination and pigmentation of the shadows but the duo  'Amber' caught my attention.'Amber' duo has one of the most pretty warm pink shadow which looks flattering on Indian skin tones.The other shade in it is a nice gorgeous peachy copper shade.Both the shades are very much suitable for wedding functions.One can wear both the shades together or even alone as 'Eye shadow Wash'.Basically I use the pink one on my lid and the copper one at the crease.One can even use the copper shade on lid and use a brown eye shadow at the crease, looks really nice that way.At last my search for a warm pink eye shadow for my skin tone came to an end. :)

Faces Glam on Eyeshadow has been recently launched by Faces Canada as a part of their 'Silk Luxury Makeup range'.These eye shadow duos come in rectangular greyish steel box with 'faces'  engraved on the cover.This comes with a mirror lodged inside of the cover and a dual ended eye shadow applicator is also provided with it.The cover closes properly, I find the packaging very classy and travel friendly! I am really impressed with the packaging of all products from their 'Glam on' range.

These duos are moderately pigmented and are quite buildable.I really loved the silky texture and the luminous effect these shadows give.Shadows are quite easy to blend and can be used without an eye primer too.But without a primer these shadows creased on my eyes within 4 hours, so I never skip an eye primer when I am using these.After using a base these shades pop out nicely and look more distinct and gorgeous.

Considering the quality and quantity, I feel these shadows are a bit overpriced but still you can go for one of these duos.Frankly saying except 'Amber' and 'Forest mauve', other duos did not look that interesting to me, I felt all shadows were mostly dull shades which wont suit my skin tone at all.I wont go for 'Forest Mauve' as I have got several shadows similar to those khaki green and blackened purple shades.

Pros Of The Product:

-These Glam on eye shadow duo comes in classy greyish steel packaging which is sturdy and travel friendly.

-5 duos are available in this range.

-Quantity provided is pretty good.

-The texture of the shadows is silky in touch, they blend nicely leaving no harsh lines.

-Dual ended eye shadow applicator is provided which is of good quality

-Available easily at several online shopping sites and stores.

-I quite liked the combination of all the duos.

-Though shadows are moderately pigmented but these are quite buildable.

-These shadows have natural luminous effect.

-Amber Duo has pretty warm pink shade and a copper shadow with peach tones,both the shades look flattering on Indian skin tones.

-Thanks to god,they have launched a new website in India recently.Check their new site HERE

Cons Of The Product:

-Except forest mauve and Amber duo, I felt other shadows were quite chalky and dull.

-Considering the quality, I feel these are bit overpriced.

-Contains Parabens.

-Staying power without a primer is only 3-4 hours maximum.

-They are not at all crease proof as Faces claim these to be, in summers they creased so much! :(

-Eye shadow base is a must beneath these shadows to increase its staying power and intensity.

Will I repurchase it? Yes, I may repurchase this particular duo 'Amber' for the beautiful pink shadow it has.I wont buy any other duo in this range though.

My Overall Recommendation:

Faces Glam on Duo eye shadows come in 5 different combination in steel grey classy travel friendly packaging.Shadows are moderately pigmented but quite buildable.Using an eye shadow base beneath these is absolutely must.Staying power of the shadows is not that great and it creases without a base within 3-4 hours.Checkout the duo' Amber' if you are in search for a pretty wearable warm pink eye shadow.

Vedic Line Neem & Brahmi Disinfecting Face Wash

Hello Friends!
Today I am going to review Vedic Line Neem & Brahmi Disinfecting Face Wash which I got during winters.Lets see how it got well with my skin type.
 
What the Company Says?
Disinfecting face wash for Pigmentation, Acne, Open pores & Oily skin.

Details

Thick & lovely face wash, cleanses deep down dirt without stripping natural oil from the face. Neem & Brahmi very popular Ayurvedic herbs, Refresh skin & have deodorant anti-fungal effects. Fragrance of Tea Tree & Camphor opens up channels, relaxes mind and makes breathing comfortable.

Price:Rs 60 for 50 ml and Rs 110 for 120 ml.

My Take On This product:
I got this product during the month of January when it was chilling cold at my place.I was not sure whether to try a neem face wash during those time as neem face washes usually removes all oiliness from face leaving squeaky clean feeling and in my case makes my skin very dry.But this face wash was absolutely different.It has very soothing herbal fragrance and very runny in consistency.I needed more quantity to clean my face each time and found my skin brightened clean and yet hydrated.It feels slippery on face while cleansing though.I don't mind the slippery feeling actually.

This face cleanser comes in a flattened transparent tube.The cleanser looks lime green in bottle but is almost transparent in real. It has flip on cap that closes with a click.But however I don't feel it closes properly and thus not very travel friendly.

However when I am using it during summers, I am really disappointed with it.After a tiring day whenever I use it, it does not remove the greasiness and dirt properly.I need to use really lots of quantity still do not get that squeaky clean feeling.I cant confirm whether it prevents acne or not but I am sure oily skin beauties wont like it much.Overall its an average face wash which would suit dry skin girls more.Yes its hard to believe that a neem face wash will suit a dry skin girl but not someone with oily skin. :p

Pros Of The Product:
-Contains Brahmi and neem which are used for disinfecting or detoxifying skin.
-It has deodorant and anti fungal properties.
-It contains tea tree and camphor which opens up pores.
-Available in both 50 ml and 120 ml variants.
-Its available at reasonable price.
-Can be purchased online from several shopping sites.
-Never ever dries up my face.
-Removes dirt in a most subtle manner without affecting oil water balance.
-Soothing herbal fragrance. 


Cons Of The Product:
-Not suitable for removing oil and grime.
-Does not properly clean my face during summers.
-Does not remove makeup either.
-Cant confirm if it prevents acne or not.
-Not available at shops.
-Feels slippery during cleansing.
-Contains SLES.
-Does not foam properly despite containing SLES.
-Its not a fully herbal face wash.

Rating:

Effectiveness:2.75 out of 5

Availability:3.25 out of 5

Quality vs price: 3.75 out of 5

Quantity:4 out of 5

Overall rating: 3.5 out of 5

Will I repurchase it? No, I don't think so. 

My Overall Recommendation: Its a mild neem cleanser which does not lather much.Its a good buy during winters but during summers it does not remove oil and grime properly.It contains SLES so not a herbal face wash entirely.However it never makes my skin dry or removes essential oils.Thus i think its an average face wash good for normal to dry skin people and those who do not mind slippery feeling while cleansing.

Hello Sweeties!

Recently I checked the L'Oreal Paris Infallible range at a cosmetic store.Their range of eye shadows caught my attention and I ended up buying one of the shades.There are some nine shades, out of those I got the shade 'Endless Chocolat' 12 for me.I really wanted to get three more shades (Burning Black, Eternal Black, All Night Blue) but the store had kept only testers, no fresh piece were available, the SA wanted to me to get the testers. :(

What The Company Says?

Infallible Eyeshadows contain ultra concentrated colour pigments, for an intense colour finish. Additional binders (oils) coat and magnify the colour pigments revealing beautiful shimmer and maximized colour. The colour adheres to the eyelid as durably and comfortably as a second skin and lasts for up to 24hrs.

With a formulation that lies between the comfort of a cream and the ease of application of a powder, infallible eyeshadow melts gently from the fingertips to the eye lid on application. The result is a luxurious, velvety texture.

Expert Advice:

Can I blend the different shades together?
Infallible Eyeshadows have been designed to blend different colours together, if desired, to create a variety of looks from the classic smokey eye to shimmering gold and silver.

Is the formula easy to remove?
Yes, Infallible Eyeshadow is waterproof, yet it is easily removed with a classic eye make-up remover.

Velvety Sensual Texture:
With a formulation that lies between the comfort of a cream and the ease of application of a powder, Infallible eyeshadow contains an exceptionally high proportion of binders (oils) for the softest, most velvety eyeshadow. The eyeshadow melts gently from the fingertips to the eyelid on application. The result is a rich and satiny look.

Price: Rs 450 for 3.5 Grams

My Take On This Product:

I recently checked out the Infallible range launched by L'Oreal paris in India.I quite liked the feel of their foundation, the shade 'Radiant Sand' matched my skin tone bought then I thought to buy it later as I have to finish my 5 existing number of foundations :p After checking their foundations, the infallible range of eye shadows caught my attention.There were some 8 shades in all and these shadows claim to be smudge resistant, water proof  with a staying power of 24 hours.I got the shade 'Endless Chocolat' for me.I wanted to get three more shades too but fresh ones were not there, so I left the store and thought to wait for this range to arrive at online shopping sites.

These eye shadows come in square transparent jars with a screw on lid and a plastic separator to avoid damage.I really loved their packaging, its cool, sturdy,  travel friendly and one can see the shade through the transparent jar.There are some 8  shadows launched in India :

-Forever Pink- Its a light pink shade with shimmers

-Hourless Biege- Beige shade with shimmers

-Purple Obsession- Very pretty light purple shade

-All Night Blue- Its a Royal Blue shade, very similar to Inglot Pearl 428

-Burning Black- Its a Blackened Violet shade. This one is similar to Inglot Pearl 426 but bit more blackened.

-Permanent Kaki- Its a khaki green shade, similar to Faces Canada pigment in 'Forest Green'

-Endless Chocolat- Its true brown shade with fine Golden Shimmers. Inglot Pearl 409 is similar to it.

-Flashback Silver- Silver shade with shimmers

-Eternal Black- Black shadow with loads of silver shimmers

The shade 'Endless Chocolat' is a pure Brown shade with very very fine golden shimmers which impart a warm sheen to eyes.These shadows are in pressed form and their texture seems to be something in between cream and powder,almost buttery soft.If you have used Chambor single touch Blush then you will understand what I want to say.You need to softly swipe across its surface to get enough pigmentation and product for your entire lid.One gets 3.5 grams and 450 bucks which I find reasonable considering its quality and pricing policy of L'Oreal Paris.

This shadow blends seamlessly within seconds like a dream.I have fallen in love with this shadow friends, I soooo want to get this in other shades soon.This shade can be applied alone as light wash on the lids or with some other shades too.It has very very fine golden shimmers, though I don't much like shimmery shadows but this one is different.It has absolutely zero fall out and can be used during day time too as shimmers are ultra fine and impart a pearlescent sheen.

One thing I noticed was this shade is intensely pigmented and adheres to my lid well, I can skip an eye shadow base easily.Without a primer its stayed on my eyes for 7 hours plus with no creasing, after that I removed it so I think its staying power is much more that.The quantity is huge and one requires very less amount so its going to last for a long time.So guys if you like brown shadows then definitely check out this shade! I do highly recommend this entire range of shadows to all of you.Myself, going to get 3-4 other shades in this range very soon.

Pros Of The Product:
