Quick Bourjois Service! Review!

Hi lovelies!

Okay, so everytime I actually feel like changing my nail paint, its either too late at night or its lunch time! And these nail paints take like forever to dry!
 So sometimes I really wish like I could change that, but the Fact is, I cant!
And to top the drying time, all that pain of removing your polish, finding cotton, discovering that your acetone was over, spoiling your perfectly painted nail to remove another nail's paint just adds up to my boredom!
Result, I don't change my nail paint for days together!  But recently (I think Fairy Godmother listed to me) and I saw this beauty on my cousin's dressing table- Bourjois Magic Nail Polish Remover. Bliss.
Next thing I do, go search for it in India (She got it from Paris)

PRODUCT: Bourjois Majic Nail Polish Remover

Price in India: INR 800

What is it? : It is an acetone free nail paint remover. No cotton needed! It comes in a small tub with sponge where you dip your finger, twist it, and you are done!The one I have is Red fruit and Vanilla and it smells like bliss.






MY EXPERIENCE: I love,LOVE nail paints! So the entire concept of this product is absolutely super.Bourjois claims 1 second removal per nail which is pretty much true( except Glitter)
The main avantage is that it is acetone free and has Almond oil! You can actually feel the oil on your fingers when you are done twisting( Which is not a bad thing, it's very mild,yet effective!) I love the mild fragrance that it leaves behind as well! The only con is the price! It's quite heavy on the pocket, but you save on cotton and acetone for quite sometime!(SA at the  counter claims it will last a year or more!Let's see!) Another worthy mention is that it does remove glitter nail paint quite nicely!( less effort than otherwise)

What I like:
1. Effectively removes nail paint
2. Acetone free.
3.Amazing fragrance.
4.Almond oil is nourishing
5. Amazing Concept! Saves a lot of time!

What I don't like:
1. Very pricey.
2.Glitter particles tend to adhere to the sponge while removal ing glitter!

Overall: 4.5/5 Go ahead, buy it!

P.S: I had been away from the blog for quite a while and now I will make up for it by some amazing offers for the lovelies who follow the blog! Stay tuned!:)

I Love Nail Paints!Review#4

Hi everyone!

So today I am reviewing one of my favourite polishes in my stash! Its called ZOYA in the shade RENEE.

Few weeks back I had reviewed MY ENVY BOX (see review here:http://stylesaysit.blogspot.com/2014/04/now-unveiling-my-envy-box-april-2014.html) and because I had taken a one month subscription,  I had earned points! Each point is equivalent to one rupee! ( That is soo cool!:D) So I used those points to purchase a new nail paint ( Ofcourse, because I love polishes! :P)

PRODUCT I AM REVIEWING : ZOYA RENEE

PURCHASED FROM: www.myenvybox.com

COST IN INDIA: INR 450

SHADE DESCRIPTION: BRIGHT NEON PINK WITH UNDERTONES OF RED. NEON IS NOT OVERPOWERING.

ENJOY SOME PICTURES:











WITH FLASH

MY EXPERIENCE:  I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THIS SHADE! TO START OF WITH, LET ME TELL YOU ALL THAT IT IS NOT AS STRIKINGLY NEON AS IT LOOKS IN THE IMAGES! IT IS A LITTLE MORE TOWARDS THE PINK SHADE! OKAY, SO  IT LOOKS DIFFERENT ON DIFFERENT SKIN TONES! ON FAIR SKIN TONES, IT SHOWES UP MORE BRIGHTLY! I HAVE WHEATISH SKIN, BUT THIS SHADE DOES NOT WASH OUT MY SKIN TONE  INFACT IT MAKES IT LOOK BETTER! THE DRYING IS SUPER SUPER FAST( ONE OF THE FASTEST RATHER) AND APPLICATION IS NOT STREAKY. THE WEAR TIME IS WHAT I ADORE! IT LASTS FOR ALMOST 6-7 DAYS WITHOUT CHIPPING MUCH.

PROS:
1. BEAUTIFUL SHADE.
2. DRIES FAST.
3.LONG LASTING MATTE FINISH.

CONS:
1.LOOKS DIFFERENT ON DIFFERENT SKIN TONES! CAN WASH OUT DARKER SKIN TONES.
2.PRICEY

DUPE OF THIS SHADE: COLORBAR PINK LADY IS A SIMILAR SHADE, BUT NOT ANYWHERE CLOSE IN THE QUALITY!

RECOMMENDED? TOTALLY!

RATING: 4.5/5

Love Long Hair! Review#3

Hi everyone!

We all want long and beautiful hair, dont we? But do we hate spending hundreds of rupees everytime we go for a trim? Yayyy! Now here is a solution!

We all love flaunting our long and flowy hair in the summers, dont we?( come on, we love showing our hairbands! :P) but this time,

TRESemmé Split Remedy

actually made me have closer inspection of my hair! Ahh, I did have split ends! Worried as I was, I dint really run to the parlour for a haircut!  Instead I decided to give the newly launched Tresemme
 Split Remedy a chance!
                                           
WHAT ARE SPLIT ENDS? In very simple words split end means a tip of a person's hair which has split from dryness or ill-treatment.

COMPANY CLAIMS:
The TRESemmé Split Remedy™ Shampoo & Conditioner system gently cleanses and moisturizes so hair is healthy-looking and manageable, all while reducing split ends up to 80% after just three uses*. This unique system, with our innovative Reconstructing Complex™, binds split ends—and with continued use, this system fixes damage as it occurs. This hair care for split ends leaves strands looking salon fresh: soft, smooth and easy to style.

MY HAIR TYPE: Long, black, straight at the top, a little wavy towards the ends.

MY EXPERIENCE: Lets start with the fact that well, I had no clue that I actually had split ends! However, when the brand send me these samples for a review, I did really have a close look at my hair, and THERE! I did have split ends! I have used it for almost 5 washes! In the first two washes, my hair did feel a little dry. However,patience paid! After around 4 washes, my hair felt very straight, smooth and my hair ends were really manageable! The shampoo is pearly white with tiny sparkles( which DO NOT cause any allergy, atleast on me!) and the conditioner is thick, white. They smell rather divine! I wish I could make you guys smell it through the blog!( Well yes, I adore the smell that much!) The cap has "PRESS" written on it and is easy to deal with, causing minimum wastage!( SEE IMAGE)
I advice that all you women out there to have a closer look at your hair, for split ends! If you do, dont hesitate to give it a try!
AT INR 80 FOR 90 ML, ITS A RATHER GOOD BUY(WELL CHEAPER THAN A TRIM ISNT IT?)!

HERE ARE SOME IMAGES:
                                                                                         










PROS:
1. DIVINE SMELL.
2. STURDY PACKAGING.
3. SMOOTHER HAIR( AFTER A FEW WASHES)
4. REDUCES SPLIT ENDS!( GIVE IT TIME THOUGH!)
5.GREAT PRICE!


CONS:
1. CAN LEAK WHILE TRAVELLING!
2. HAIR FEELS LITTLE DRY IN FIRST TWO WASHES.

RATING: 4/5

WILL I REPURCHASE IT?: WELL , YES! ESPECIALLY WHEN I SEE INCREASED NUMBER OF SPLIT ENDS AFTER A RECENT HAIRCUT!

P.S: THE SAMPLES HAVE BEEN SENT BY THE BRAND FOR TESTING. HOWEVER ALL REVIEWS ARE HONEST AND GENUINE.

Turquoise love! Review#2


Hello Fashionistas!

I was super duper excited about Maybelline's new launch this summer! Another addition to the Colossal range!Yes, I am talking about none other than THE COLOSSAL KOHL TURQUOISE!

MAYBELLINE CLAIMS:

First of its kind in India with 2 in 1 benefits of a Kohl and Eyeliner

  • Go all out with glamorous eyes in the most exciting Colossal Kohl – Turquoise which LINES like a Kohl and DEFINES like a liner. Turquoise kohl is a refreshing twist on the conventional black kohl and a must have fashion and beauty accessory.
  • Here’s why you’ll love it:
  • · Provides 12 Hours of smudge-free turquoise intensity

  • · Color doesn’t smudge or fade

  • · Enriched with nourishing ingredients and Vitamin E to soothe the eye

  • · Features a unique tip that glides smoothly for even application

  • · 100% suitable for your eyes
  • PRICE: INR .249/-
So, I bought one for myself( FINALLY!) and here are some pictures!

















MY EXPERIENCE: Okay, so this liner( is how I use it, I have still not tried it on my lower lash line!) is a beautiful turquoise coloured  stick with undertones of green! What I really love about this is that it is a beautiful metallic blue and does not really contain chunky glitter particles! It looks beautifully metallic on the eyes and is great and bright for summers! It is quite pocket friendly( Though I wonder why it is INR 100 HIGHER THAN THE BLACK COLOSSAL!) I am a big, BIG fan of eyeliners, and this colour just adds up to my collection of personal favourites! HOWEVER, it is not as smooth as LAKME EYECONIC RANGE KAJALS and despite this, is quite easily breakable! Otherthan these two, it has an amazinggg colour payoff, and lasts pretty long!( umm ....not  12 hours though as it claims!)
What I really like about this is is PACKAGING! Its beautifuuly refreshing with lovely metallic letters and writing, infact its the best packaging till date of any kajal I have used!
Also Maybelline now attaches a silver holograph with NO.1 MAKEUP BRAND written on it( look closely in the picture above!) and I love it because its difficult to replicate and one can be quite sure that it is authentic!

SO TO SUM IT UP,

PROS:

1. AMAZINGGG PACKAGING!
2. GREAT TURQUOISE COLOUR!
3. QUITE POCKET FRIENDLY!
4.GOOD COLOUR PAYOFF!
5.SUITABLE FOR ALL SKIN TONES!

CONS:
1. NOT VERY SMOOTH
2. EASILY BREAKABLE!
3.NOT RECOMMENDED FOR VERY SMALL EYES!( IT MAKES THEM LOOK EVEN SMALLER!)

RATING: 4/5

CHEAT SHEET: IT IS A DUPE OF THE NEWLY LAUNCHED L'OREAL SUPER LINER GELMATIC IN TURQUOISE! 
YOU CANNOT MAKEOUT THE DIFFERENCE UNTIL YOU READ THE PRICE!( L'OREAL IS INR 425, WHAT?, SO MAYBELLINE WINS IN TERMS OF PRICE!)
