Kylie Cosmetics Kyshadow Bronze Palette Dupe in India?? Kiss Beauty Eyeshadow?

I bought this dupe palette a while ago. Kylie Cosmetics is probably one of the popular makeup to dupe. Kylie Cosmetics products are duped so much that sometimes the dupe has better packaging than the original Kylie Cosmetics packaging!

Lotus Herbals Ecostay Butter Matte Lip Color in Rosetta - Review, Swatches

I bought a lot of makeup recently and have so many reviews lined up. But I have no time left to blog here. Instead of writing half-hearted posts regularly, I think writing a well put post once a week is much better.

I have always loved Lotus Herbals as a brand be it their sunscreen or my Holy Grail kajal. I bought this lipstick purely for review purpose but I am surprised by how much I love it.

5 Beauty Uses of Grapeseed Oil

Why is Grapeseed Oil good for you?

Oils, in general, are known to clog pores when applied on the face but Grapeseed oil is one such oil which doesn't clog your pores.

Grapeseed Oil also contains essential fatty acids like stearic and linoleic acid which are proven to minimize scars and wrinkles.

It is used as a carrier oil because of its lightweight property. It also has anti-bacterial and astringent property to it.

Swatches : Lakme 9 to 5 Weightless Matte Mousse Lip and Cheek Color (Rose Touch, Plum Feather, Burgundy Lush and Fuchsia Suede)

All Good Scent Sample Perfume Trial Box Review | Miss Diva Range and more

It is safe to say that I am obsessed with perfumes now. I have been trying out so many perfumes in the past few months, so that I can find a perfume which resonates with me.

This range has 3 variants in Miss Diva Showstopper, Miss Diva Fashionista and Miss Diva Covergirl.

The other perfume which I bought are Love and Joy, Tender, Radiant, Chic, Jasmine and Rose.

Miss Claire Soft Matte Lip Cream Lip Swatches in shades Nudes(04,57,58,60), Oranges (36,40), Pinks(30,38,47,48) Where to buy Online in India

Hie all,

Miss Claire Soft Matte Lip Cream in shades Nudes(04,57,58,60), Oranges (36,40), Pinks(30,38,47,48) Where to buy Online in India

Today's post is going to be a lengthy one with lots of lip swatches, so be warned :D I bought 7 shades from the New Miss Claire Soft Matte Lip Cream range and I think I have enough of these now. I have previously reviewed and swatched 3 shades and now with these ones I have 10 in all!! I didn't plan on buying these many but there were a lot of nude shades available so I couldn't resist! I bought these from 1st Beauty, Ghatkopar and they have increased the price from Rupees 160 to 175 now. It is still less than what you get online with these available at double the prices there. So if possible, try to find these at beauty stores rather than buying online. Swatch post starts out fun, but by the end of it my lips are dying and am exhausted by swatching and removing so many shades. So I hope you girlies like this post and the efforts I put in. Let's get starteddddd

Hey all!

Garnier Pure Active Neem + Tulsi High Foaming Face Wash | Review , Price Online , Where to buy 

I have in the past experienced acne breakout on my face  due to certain products. Hence I am very careful while selecting a face wash for me. Having sensitive acne prone skin, I can't just randomly pick any face wash and hope that it works for me. I have been using Garnier products for years now and I regret the times when I switched to different face washes. The pure active salicylic one and the lemon one from Garnier always worked for me. So check out how this one worked for me.

On My Nails : Sugar Tic Tac Toe, Maybelline, Color Dose, Street Wear Nail Polish

Hey, all!

I will do these nails posts to sort of document and keep all my nail pics at one place. I put a lot of pics on my Instagram: @beautygrinblog, so I thought why not post them here in one post. I will either do them once a month or every two months. So do let me know about my nail looks and what you think of this Nails Series.

1.Simple Dotted Nail Art: I created this look with simple dot design. It turned out really well. However, I learned that nail art looks much cleaner and better if you use new nail polish for it otherwise it doesn't give the desired effect. I mostly used Maybelline Color Show Nail Polish with a few local ones.
