Globus End Of Season Sale ~ MUST check out !

Can anything be more fun than shopping in summers ! Okay I am not talking about shopping in bylanes of a market in scorching heat..neither am I talking about shopping in malls ( for this also you have to dress up and move out in the heat) I am talking about enjoying the End Of Season Sale Sitting on your couch inside your room. 
Okay End of season sale is not a new concept But!! end of season sale over the Online store definitely is :)

One such sale that I have come across and have Actually found few good options is from the Brand Globus.
Now Globus is a fashion store and needless to say it is quite famous with youngsters because of having ~ In trend and reasonable priced clothing ~ I love their collection of kurtas honestly speaking. Fun and bright.

For someone like me who is stuck in 45 days long exam period ~ Online sales are God send (If only God gave me some discount coupons too!! nevermind.. :\ )

Okay back to topic ~

Since I am a regular at Globus , I really have a lot to say about it. Last month I shopped quite a few things from Globus when I was in Mumbai. I am a kind of person who loves stores which looks welcoming and attractive and Globus really fits the bill here. It retails for every age group, is quite affordable and can be your one stop shop for a wardrobe makeover. 

Globus is giving customers opportunity to shop in the end of season sale through their e-store.
I have gone through the sale items and following are my picks from the lot. 












For full range of products/brands you must visit the Store :)

QVS ~ FLAT TOP POWDER BRUSH ~ it contours, it highlights and it blends too

QVS ~ FLAT TOP POWDER BRUSH ~ it contours, it highlights and it blends ;)
Have you ever come across a brush that looks good, feels awesomely soft and contour-highlight-blend all at the same time,, !! well I didn't untill I came across this lil chubby baby in the New U store ,, m so glad I picked it  up  over that ugly looking costly xyz brush.

I imagine this brush in a small little princess's hand applying a baby pink blush to the apples of her cheeks ^-^ (only if it was pink!! or purple in my case ;)


Let me tell you something honestly , I was never a face powder person, hated the look it gave , cakey and absolutely fake. I love having my skin look like it is originally albeit a bit polished but not something that it actually isn't. So you see powder was a no-no for me,,This was till super-powers came into me and I thought of using powder with this chubby lil thing. I was surprised and what a sweet little surprise it was, there was no cakey feeling, nothing as in fake feeling, no accentuation of dry patches..Do I need any more reason to love it?
I know I lived under the rock not knowing what's the true benefit of having a compact powder on top of any foundation/TM ~ :-\

What the product states ~

QVS Flat Top Powder Brush ~

~ Contour, Blend and Highlight
~ Flat top brush head for color definition
~ Ideal for powder and Mineral makeup

QVS ~ FLAT TOP POWDER BRUSH ~ it contours, it highlights and it blends ;)

QVS ~ FLAT TOP POWDER BRUSH ~ it contours, it highlights and it blends ;)

~ I have used it as a powder brush, a blush brush, a brush to highlight, blend, for a light sweep on a single overall lid colour and for liquid foundation (didn't go well with this one).
~ The brush is short-short like very short but it works superbly, the bristles are super soft, I have washed it three time till now and not even a single bristle fell out or the brush lost its shape.
~ The handle is thick and of good quality and gives a nice grip/hold. There are few brushes which gives a streaky finish on your face but this one does not.
~ It can even pick up baked blushes, so one more brownie to it.
~ It didn't do anything when I tried to use it to apply liquid foundation .
~ works amazing as a highlighter brush.

QVS ~ FLAT TOP POWDER BRUSH ~ it contours, it highlights and it blends ;)


For loose powder ~ Tap off the excess and then I use a dabbing motion ~ works fine for me.
For highlighter and blush ~ one light sweep across the desired area ; also to and fro motion.
For eyeshadow application (yes I manage to use this for eye shadow too) ~ one light sweep, specially with light shimmery shades - my current <3

QVS ~ FLAT TOP POWDER BRUSH ~ it contours, it highlights and it blends ;)


I honestly can not find a single flaw in this brush , a purple version of it would have been fantastic ;)

Price ~ 355 INR

Recommendation ~ If you are afraid of loose powder application ~ BUY this ,, well just buy this Its too good.

Thanks

A small little Haul :)

Hey all :)

Missed my little chit chats with all of you :)
I did little shopping few days back, I know I haven't done any blogging in days but that was because I was not fiddling out as in what other things can be done at this space ; a little has been formulated but then still a long way to go :)
So many things are going on in my life at the moment, at times it makes me wonder how I am managing it but then I have realized its all due to surrounding myself with positive and happy thoughts. Also another thing is to tackling one issue at a time and not do so many things at a time ;) as if I am buttercup frm The Power Puff Girls ;)

Some of these things will be reviewed in coming days :) Beauty Blogosphere has helped me so much , I shop wisely now!! ( Also the fact that so many of you write such honest reviews that it has helped me with the little skin issues I was facing).




Thanks

Something you will like for sure ~ Purplle.com ~ Website Review

Its a good year for beauty enthusiasts in India. With so many websites coming and making our shopping so fun!! Clickety click! Punch in details and wait for maximum 5 days ~ Voila!! You have your goodies delivered at your place. Fun no!!
Its like letting a kid run away with a shopping cart inside a shopping store :D
So, a few days back I came through this website Purplle.com , first thing that caught my attention? well it was the name itself..Purplle.. ;) I <3 Purple the same way some girls like Pink :)


Purplle.com Is relatively a new e-commerce website having its base set up in Mumbai.
Its new but it has strong potential. With luxury brands being at its core, its a boon for those who do not have an easy peasy access to such .


For fragrance lovers ~ You gotta visit this website soon, Its celebrating its Scentuality week , Ahmazinnn discounts on all kinds of brands for this week. I am myself eyeing for a goodie ;)

For Beauty lovers ~ Many many things , regular n not so regular brands with nice discounts.

I had placed my order on 23rd , late evening and received it today. Due to a teeny tiny glitch it got delayed for a day else It would have reached me in 3 days flat!! well now also it has reached me in 5 days :) so good job I must say.


I ordered Revlon eyeshadow palete ~ Rich Temptation ~ INR 695.

I love their Idea of celebrating a different thing each week ~ Like It was men's grooming stuff last week and Scentuality this week,,, let us see whats in surprise for us in the coming weeks.

I would love if they introduce more Makeup related brands in the coming time :) It would be like a cherry on the cake then.





My Recommendation : Yes please !! Especially do check it out before this week ends, awesome discounts on  Scents going on.

Website link : Purplle.com
Will be reviewing the palette in detail soon, else it is superb!! Just the way I like my makeup to be ;)

Thanks

Namita

I was given a discount coupon to shop for review purpose :) My opinions still remains intact.
p.s. 


I love their customer care service :) Very professional yet super friendly, specially mentioned for Ridhi Sharma :)

Best Buy January ~ Revlon Photo Ready Foundation ~ and a free gift :)

I shopped quite allot in January and at the end of it I felt like crap !! I bought things that I am going to use seldom and the worst part of it being that they were pricey. Now I am on hold on shopping for makeup and m concentrating more on accessories. (yes !! I need them.. I swear !! )

But then,  all I have been doing since a good 6-8 months was finding a good foundation for parties and likes.
Since I am going to attend a very special party in a couple of days all I wanted was a good foundation :) . I wanted to see my skin looking good but yes not too much of coverage,, in a full coverage foundation I don't find me looking like me ;) ,, so this is what I bought.. Revlon Photo ready foundation .

Best Buy January ~ Revlon Photo Ready Foundation ~ and a free gift~~~ :)

Along with it I bought a colorburst lipstick too,, its price has increased : \

So I was at the counter and the lady said ma'am the price of the lipstick has increased and I was like acha !! , but since it is not much of a price rise so I bought it, it's a different story how I have managed  to pick similar shade again.(I now have 3 similar looking shades and I am not much happy with it). :p

Best Buy January ~ Revlon Photo Ready Foundation ~ and a free gift~~~ :)


But yes, I got something free too.. Its a pretty floral pouch by Revlon :) :)
I don't knw what sort of offer it came with, but I got it with these two products I got.

It has one huge zipped compartment, a Velcro flap compartment and a open pocket on the back side.
I like the pattern it has,,and yes purple is my favorite color since I was like 2 or something.. :D
quality is nice and the best part is that its too roomy !! good for girls like us ;)

I will review the foundation in some time, maybe 2-3 weeks or so,,so far m loving it :) I don't look too much dolled up wearing this and also I can blend it with my fingers easily.

So, what was your best buy in January :) :)
take good care of yourself everyone :) <3

Thanks
