Skinfood Rose Essence Soft Cream Blusher in No.4

Im not a kind of person who has a truck load of makeup and doesnt know which one to choose. Well im the kind of person who Owns maybe around 5 Blushes and keeps using 1 of them every single time until loop loop i get bored. So what kind of person i am? You tell me. LOL! 

So this is the blush i have Been using for the past couple of weeks and im totally loving it. LOVING IT! Its so beautiful. The color and the texture is absolutely gorgeous. Smells like roses - Not the annoying kind but the more Calming. . lovely .. romantic kind.

Its like a peach / coral / whatever colour - well i dont know. It looks peach to me. Its so pretty and would look lovely on all skin tones i guess. Its a really creamy soft formula that blends really well and looks natural on your skin. The colour comes on pretty light so you can build up if you want a more bolder flush of colour.

So that is the colour. Isnt it gorgeous?! Well the only downside is that if you have really really dry skin you got to moisturize really well before you put it on so you can get a good finish. Other than that i am totally loving it and using it all the time. And i will do so until i find another new favourite colour. 

So ..

I LOVE IT! Hahaha ..

Soap And Glory The Righteous Body Butter Lotion

I got just about 1 day left to pack for Sri Lanka and i needed a bottle of lotion. Obviously it was not a time to experiment with exotic brands and obviously i got no time to waste - i walked into Boots hoping for a BUY 2 GET 1 FREE OFFER. Yes the offer was going on so i grabbed a bottle of this lotion so fast i almost didnt check out what it was. Almost - then i spent 5 minutes at the cash register trying to read the ingredients. Its a terrible habit and im trying to get rid of it. I am. 

For someone like me - who wanted to try pretty much every single product from this brand .. it really was easy to just pick this up hoping i would love it. And yes i did love it. I do and im so glad i did. Well its such a huge bottle of lotion - i would hate to just waste it.

Scent:

Smells light and fruity. Not like a fruit salad but its girly and really lovely. Not a scent that would turn heads around but definitely something that will make you smile while you moisturize. Well thats the whole point - isnt it?

Texture and Moisturization:

Its light and comfortable. No oil or grease. Moisturizes so well. VERY WELL. Its awesome. If you have very very dry skin like mine - you will not believe that a lotion that feels so light actually works so well. Its amazing.

The Good Stuff:

Smells lovely

Not pricey

A huge pump bottle that locks up well 

(IT SURVIVED A FLIGHT AS WELL)

Moisturizes the driest of dry skin during summer

The Not So Good Stuff:

Might not be sufficient during harsh winter 

So ..

You know i loved this and im so happy. This will be one lotion that i will use and use and finish it off. And recommend it to everyone i love without any shame. LOL. I mean i will recommend it.

Skinfood Tomato Jelly Lip Tint - Orange Tomato

If you are someone like me and always shy away from loud lip colors - a tint is your best friend. 

That is now a gorgeous orange shade. A very pretty color for summer time. Thats about 2 swatches.  It is quite orange in my opinion and will definitely look really pretty on your lips regardless of how it is pigmented. Definitely looks different on different people depending on your natural lip color. So the more lighter your lips are - the more orange it looks!

Thats the stain that stays on after the swatch is wiped. 

Instead of telling you long stories - let me just go right into the important stuff.

The Good Stuff:

The tomato extracts and rose water keeps lips looking healthy and soft. 

Not drying at all

Feels cools and really light

Colours quite well 

Tint stays on for atleast 2-3 hours

Can be used as a blush for a very natural subtle colour

The NOT SO GOOD Stuff:

The taste is like - WHAT THE HELL? Weird

So ..

A really cute colour for summer. If you are someone who is bold enough to experiment with ORANGE do give it a try. My only concern would be its taste - seriously i was shocked by its weirdness .. i did check out other reviews but noone really talked about it. Is it just me? I dont know but i think they need to add some sweetness to it or atleast keep it tasteless.

Bath & Body Works French Lavender & Honey Eau De Parfum

For those who know me would have already guessed one thing - I AM EXCITED! Too reasons - Bath & Body Works has opened at Villagio Mall (awhile back actually) and THE BIG SALE IS GOING ON NOW! Yes! How awesome is that?! OKAY NOW WAIT - please stay dont run off to the mall now, read first ladies! Yes thank you LOL.

Most of you are well aware of this brand obviously - reviews are all over the internet. Everybody has bottles of their fragrances stocked up high all the time! My mom has a couple actually but this is the first time i visited the store. Strange i know. And for my friends who asked me reviews on them, i will be writing more reviews definitely now that i have been to their store and loved their range .. its absolutely awesome .. loads to choose from! You knew that already right. 

I met this lovely lady from BBW a week ago - and she asked me the most obvious question 'whats your favourite scent from our range?' Honestly even after using bottles of their body mists during my college days i didnt recall a single name LOL i just remember calling them 'oh that sweet scent! OMG THAT FRUITY PINK ONE! and that chiffon shimmer thingy 'seriously i felt like a fool for not remembering (they were my way before blogging days and i really did not have to remember names duh!) so i shook my head and said i dont remember - and now when i think of it i wonder if it made me look alot sillier and obviously how can a beauty blogger not remember a name? I wish i wasnt so clumsy sometimes. Then again i think i really loved the Chiffon Shimmer Thingy ~ so now ladies whats that scent called? Let me know.

So what i got here is: FRENCH LAVENDER & HONEY. Sounds pretty exotic and mysterious. This is a new fragrance which is still not available at the stores! Yahoo! Im in early haha. Its their Ramadan Release so i got to try it earlier. Thank you BBW.

My Thoughts:

I always understand my scents in a strange way. My brain works like that so you might agree or might not - fragrances are a personal preference keeping that in mind .. lets explore! When i saw the word 'Lavender' i was thinking more like calm, subtle, boring, sleepy kinda fragrance you know. But then the word 'Honey' meant something else really .. its more sweet, heavy and interesting. So how did they both get together? Once sprayed on - this fragrance comes out really sweet, girly and so pleasant. Its light but not too light, strong but not overpowering. Girly but not in piggytails. See - my brain thinks like that. The scent of lavender is really so subtle and the sweetness of honey takes over. I love that! Its a day scent for me for im really not looking into something too relaxing to make me want to sleep. Lavender is relaxing isnt it.

So ..

A really beautiful sweet scent for summer - stays on for a couple of hours. Nothing too heavy for your nose but definitely something that will keep you smelling lovely during a hot summer day! It has a hint of melon which really gives you a slight summer kick!  

This fragrance will be in store real soon so do check it out and let me know what you think. I love it! And am using it already. Its my new purse spray!

[CLOSET IDEAS] Kiss Me Its Summertime!

Summer Time and its an excuse for dressing up in all colors right?! But ofcourse i have put to rest the pastels and trying to add browns with reds and blues and all that. Well i am trying something different. Hope you like it. And ofcourse its a very college day type style dont you think? Ofcourse i have left college years ago (GOD i feel so old!) But this would be something i would find comfortable for an afternoon with the girls? A walk in the park? A nice walk at Villagio? Well ofcourse a stroll along Villagio would need an abaya on top but you get what i mean .. its a girly summer day outfit.

Scarfs are a staple in my closet i need them every single day - instead of going for a simple one these lace scarfs are kinda chic - can be worn Throughout the year in all seasons. Definite must HAVE.

Those satchels arent really my thing - these are really useful and comfortable to carry books - well diapers, wet wipes and baby stuff for me. Doesnt Looks stylish and make me feel like a walking baby shop. If you are a mom you would .. know what i mean LOL.

This would be the highlight of this outfit! Its a pair of absolutely gorgeous shoes with kisses all over! Who said flats cant be stylish?! Right?

This little fellow would need a full review but just to let you know - these are so cute, tiny, they smell so fresh and AWESOME! Anti bacterial hand gels but they dont make you want to throw up lol! They are so fresh its a shame not to have one in your bag! Seriously try them ladies! They are on sale right now - YES THATS RIGHT! BATH AND BODY WORKS HAS THEIR SALE GOING ON! So run there asap! Stock on your favorites and try something new. They got some great deals going on.

Anyways this will be the end of my Closet Ideas. Hope you liked it! Please do let me know how you make your summer more fun and how you survive in this heat.

May Empties! Oh yeah!

I was NOT lost if you ever wondered - i was just trying to get a few things done and i got busy. I know we always say That but really - i got some new things going on with my life and kinda got held up! Anyways its time to empty the beautiful EMPTIES BIN so here we are.

SOAP & GLORY FACE SOAP AND CLARITY:

[Read Full Review HERE ]  Despite the amazingly interesting list of ingredients like 'Super Fruit Complex YUZU' and being paraben free and all that stuff Usually That Excites me - this product just did not do anything great. It dried out my skin like crazy and refused to get any better. Summer or Winter it was the same. Will not repurchase again. QR 45 - Boots, Landmark.

SEBAMED HAND + NAIL BALM:

Thanks to Mr. Husband who picked this up for me saying 'it looked like something you will like' Yes i would definitely, infact i loved it! Its amazing. Smells fresh and really lovely. It is so light BUT it works like a dream . Dried up hands or little wrinkle lines on your Fingertips clear up pretty well with continuous usage. It Doesnt workTel like  in 5 mins but trust me - give it a little time and you will see. Its amazing and its so cheap for QR 15. Try it! Its as good as my most favorite cream ever - Cifalfate Avene Anti-bacterial Repair Cream. 

NIVEA CREME SOFT HANDWASH:

Smells really pleasant but it Did not keep my hands away from getting dry. Nothing special - just like regular hand soap with a pleasant scent. QR 15 - Al Meera.

NIVEA DAILY ESSENTIALS REFRESHING MOISTURE MASK [NORMAL SKIN]:

[Read Full Review HERE]  What can i say - it was the worst face mask i have ever used. QR 5.75-Ansar Gallery.

THE BODY SHOP NUTRIGANICS DROPS OF YOUTH:

[Read Full Review Here]  Definitely one of my favorite face Serums! Makes my skin feel fresh and healthy! Paraben and silicone free! It really does Smoothen skin and Moisturizes really well without feeling heavy! Enjoyed it totally and will recommend it too!

THE BODY SHOP HEMP INTENSIVE HAND BUTTER:
[Read Full Reviews Here]  There are times when you feel as though non of your regular hand creams Seem to give you enough moisture - Especially During winter .. your hands go crazy yeah? So That is the time to try this hand butter for some serious business. I used it and loved it! Can be a little too strong a scent for some noses so please sniff it before buying. QR 60 - The Body Shop, Landmark.

GREEN APPLE LIP BALM FROM H & M:
[Read Full Review Here] Looking back at my review for this product i just had to laugh. I really thought QR 29 was too pricey for a little tin of lip balm REALLY? Well yeah figures - i was new to Qatar and therefore the naiveness. But when i think of it now - i think its pretty okay especially since its cute and looked really colourful in my handbag for months until my little boy decided its time to do something useful with it and totally scooped up the whole tin of lip balm and moisturised himself head to toe. For a minute i was horrified but then i had to smile - for one he gave me an extra empty for the month of May LOL and finally i finished a lip balm even if it was cheating! LOL! Anyways it was a cute addition to my handbag not that it did anything much to my lips. I am a little sad its over but i guess it really is time to let him go.


So those were my empties for May! I didnt really use too many products like i usually do. Strange! But then again i havent been trying out anything new for the past few weeks so i will be doing That hopefully for the next few months! Thank you for reading and thank you girls for asking me why i was away! I appreciate the love :-) Im back now.
