Summer LOVE ♥ ♥ ♥



Nelly got me gone, gone, gone, gone,
boy you know me you got me gone
boy you know me got me . . 



If you haven't listened this song yet,,and are roasted in this oh so awesome heat then please play it. Blast it in your car when you drive. I assure you you won't be bothered about traffic/heat/stupid drivers ;
All you will get is being transported into another world.. Now trust me. pretty please ;)


Done? 

Nope?

:\ Take my advise. Play it :)


Okay drama finish. Here is what I am loving this summer. 

1. Side Braids and Colorful Earrings 

I don't like messy side braids. I find them funny and not relaxed.
I am growing my hair these past months,,,reached till waist,,I need more ! Its either braids or buns for me in summer. Every other thing makes me mad. Hair open.. how much I wanna leave them open, the weather plays a spoil spot. Can happen if someone keeps rotating a hand fan around me every second I am out in the sun ;) ;)



These earrings I have  bought from FabIndia. I don't visit this store often, but this was the only Interesting shop at the airport. There was some time to my flight, I was strolling aimlessly analyzing people and their behavior (my fav past time) ,,got bored,,entered Fab India. These earrings was the lone attractive thing in the store.
   

2. You gotta be protected by sun rays all the time.

I am soooo new to Sunscreens. I buy them for my maa but I never used them myself.
I never got tanned. Come 2012 and it's happening ( no not apocalypse) ..I have tanned arms which don't match my face,,
So, I tried Lotus and VLCC (It's Bad) but nothing worked for me,
Finally I am contented with Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sun Block with SPF 50 . It works for my
arms and neck and legs(m a skirt person) , it Doesn't work for my face. It makes it red. Not allergic to it.

3. I need fruity scented hair in Summers

For this demand of mine I use Herbal Essence color me shiny shampoo and another Hair mist.
Love this!! Cute packaging,,makes my hair shiny and smell amazing.
This is for colored hair though :)


4. I am soooo picky with Facewash

It was always Himalaya Neem facewash for me. I got bored and drifted towards other brands.
Now this Lacto Calamine face wash comes free with the Lacto Calamine lotion.
I buy the purple classic version but I hate the purple facewash that's free with it.
So, I have to smilingly ask the Shopkeeper to please gimme the green facewash.
Now he remembers this routine of mine exchanging free gifts. :D
It works superb. Very light. Very moisturizing. Smells summery to me. yeyy
Detail review sometime in future.    
I feel I need to tell you my Lacto Calamine story.

5. I am a shower person and I love my shower gels and crems

Lux Magic Spell smells amazing. The fragrance lingers on for few hours. I love it. No. I LUB IT ;)
Easy to remove also unlike pears gentle body wash. 

6. I like squeaky clean face in summer      

I remove all my makeup with Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish Hot Cloth cleanser.
Have praised it enough here

7. I like fragrant eye pads

I can't get any. So I put some gulab jal in a small bowl then I add chilled water + some ice (I like super chilled stuff ) , then I put my cute heart embossed cotton pads in the bowl. I keep it refrigerated for 10 mins and then I take the cotton eye pads and place them on my eyes. My day dreaming goes along while my eyes are getting chilled ;)

Don't know why but my phone got clicked with all this so it's among my favs too (silliness personified)

The cute lil chubby purple colored baby elephant you see here just came to pose and say Hi!! to all everyone. 
:D        


8. My eyes need some love

I am a voracious reader. So,,along with the chilly exercise I do for my eyes ( as written above) I need to give some extra love for the under eye skin.
Garnier Under eye roller (non-tinted) comes here to my rescue.
The roller ball is soothing :) I like it. 
How I find the tinted roller ? Read Here

9. I love roses
   
A rose is something really special to me,, I will dedicate a post on my love for rose someday.
So, just picked these rose stud earrings from Accessorize.
These lil babies didn't photograph well. These are in actual ~ neon pink :)


10. I love my face wipes

These are Kara refreshing face wipes with Aloevera and mint oil. Total Love ! 
I have the pink one also,,can't find it now ! 

11. I love my perfumes

I am a perfume girl :) I never get tired of them, take care of them like lil babies (as if they are high maintenance ;) hehhe)
I buy small bottles at times so that I can keep them in my bag when I am on the go..
This one is by Victoria's Secret ~ Dream Angels Wish ~ Anything with Angel and I am sold ! Reason ! This is what my love calls me :)
Oh ,, it smells amazing !! Floral+Fruity = Happy Angel ^-^ ;)

That's all for now ! I am off to sleep ! Fever + Sour throat = Disturbed Angel :\

Bbyeeeeee

Thanks

Angel ;) 

p.s. wonder what the collage thing is in the background??..well that's my inspiration box. Will show you all properly what I am talking about.

Garnier Anti Dark Circle Tinted Eye Roll On ~ My review, pics and swatches

Garnier Anti Dark Circle Tinted Eye Roll On ~ My review, pics and swatches

Disaapoited with all the concealers I own, I though of looking into my dressing drawer to see if I still have the Garnier Tinted Eye roll on with me, I had thought that I have thrown it months back but nooo It was still there,,sitting in a corner, overshadowed by the makeup remover pads,, sad looking, dejected,,and drowned in self pity ,,still it was there,,
The sun shine on it, the makeup remover pads were no more hiding this little baby and then it came in my hands, sad but hopeful!! LOL , okay cut the story here..

I took out the roll on and started using it wherever I needed some concealing. I am one of those who doesnt like looking like a porcelain doll, for me the less coverage is always welcome.
So, this fit the bill completely. I used it  under my eyes and I loved the effect, my dark circles were no more prominent and it was covering up the redness around my nose quite well.. So, all in all it is a winner for me..

The reason why I had not used this for so long was the fact that the time when I bought this one, my dark circles were horrible, nothing was able to hide them, so a thing like this roll on did zilch that time.

Now, thanks to this and this , my dark circles are 80% gone now.
(lol,,this line reminds me of some teleshopping advertisement :p )

See the before and after pics..

This much of coverage works for me completely :)

The cooling effect is there and it can be easily blended with fingers. Consistency is quite liquidy.
You can also see the mess that gets accumulated around the metal ball .

I maybe buying NYX concealer in a jar , lets see, right now this roll on is doing well for me.

My take on Lakme Absolute Concealer stick , here
Recommendation :  Yes please, if you have faint looking dark circles :)

Thanks
