  • NOTD – White, Red, Black and Diamonds

    As you might have already noticed, I have gone a little nail paint crazy at the moment.  My last ‘manicure’ lasted three days without chipping and today I just decided to do something new again. This time it is White base (Organic Farm from Daiso), Glam Nails top coat by The Face Shop and Crystal Base and…

  • Oriflame Silk Beauty White Glow Body Wash – Review

    I was introduced to Oriflame by a friend in my PG house. I ordered a few products through her, usually perfumes and deodorants, for over a year before becoming a consultant myself. I have been a little lazy with my consultant things now but till I came to South Korea, I was quite active there.…

  • Chanel Stylo Yeux Waterproof Long lasting eyeliner 10 Ebene – Review

    Chanel is my favorite luxury brand, with Dior coming a close second. And I have no idea when and why it happened but that’s just how it is. I usually go for affordable stuff but for sometimes I wish I could try more luxury products and not because they are necessarily good but just to…

  • Nature Republic Botanical Eco Crayon Lip Rouge #8 Modern Beige REVIEW

    I am not a huge fan of Beige lipsticks on me but I still thought having a good nude lipstick will not hurt so when I saw this shade at Nature Republic, I decided to try it. It swatched a beige with pink undertones which I guessed would look good on me. It also looked…

  • NOTD – Pink and Golden nails

    NOTD – Nail Paints From The Face Shop This week I went ahead and bought 4 new nail paints from The Face Shop in a 2+2 offer. They are glittery top coats that glam up my nails instantly. Today I wore my Organic Farm ‘Shine Plus Nail’ in coral-y  pink shade #52 as base (also…

  • NOTD – Organic Farm Pastel Pink

    I repainted my nails today with a very spring-ey nail color from Organic Farm. I came across Organic Farm nail paints in Korea. The nail paints are really inexpensive, 1000 Korean Won for one nail paint which is less than one American Dollar (~ 50INR). Daiso stocks Organic Farm nail paints and there is a…

  • Clio Professional Gelpresso Pencil Gel Liners – Swatches and Review

    Clio Professional Gelpresso Pencil Liner – Swatches and Review A new outlet of Olive Young, a cosmetics store in South Korea, opened close to my home recently. I have browsed the store for hours three times already, maybe four. Of course I bought a few things that I will be sharing one of them in…

  • Smashbox Eyeshadow Trio – Multi Flash Swatches and Review

    I was introduced to Smashbox in 2010 in Sweden. I loved the selection instantly but due to my tendency to try things from different brands, I could not try too much of stuff from Smashbox. I have tried their lip glosses and eye shadows and I am pleased with the products I have bought. One of the…

  • Oriflame Nourishing Hand Cream for Dry Hands – Review

    Just a quick post about my go-to hand cream – the Nourishing Hand Cream for Dry Hands by Oriflame. This is one of the most sold (oldest) items of Oriflame I think. I had ordered this for a lot of my friends and no one has ever complained; most repurchase! This and Tender care lip balm…

  • The Body Shop Bamboo Detangling Comb – Review

    I have wavy hair and so it gets tangled easily even in a ponytail. I like my hair to look smooth and manageable and so I comb my hair many times during the day. I have read a lot about the pros and cons of frequent combing of hair; on one hand, it helps distribute…
