Quantity : 210 ml / 7.11 fl oz

Shelf-life : 36 months

Ingredients :
                                     

My Experience :

Packaging:
  • The body moisturizer comes in a transparent plastic bottle that has a black cap
  • The lid of the bottle is a flip-open lid that has a nozzle 
  • Nozzle-size is appropriate for the product to get dispensed
  • You need to squeeze the bottle really hard to get the product out
  • I like the packaging,it's very sturdy & travel-friendly
  • All the ingredients are clearly mentioned on the packaging
  • The shelf-life,directions etc are mentioned as well on the packaging...nice!
                                     
Formula & Texture :
  • The product looks like a baby-pink-coloured cream in the bottle,but,in reality it looks more of a white-coloured cream with pink hues...no issues
  • The product is made up of all herbal-ingredients which is really cool
  • This moisturizer is made up of awesome ingredients like shea butter , kokum butter, beeswax,aloevera extract,olive oil,jojoba oil,rose extract,honey and the list goes on.These elements are meant to keep the skin smooth and moisturized

Fragrance:
Yes, the product has a strong rosy-fragrance(roses) and it smells divine.I love the scent of this moisturizer.The scent lingers for some time and then fades away as the time passes.

Effective?
Yes
  • My skin type is normal to dry.The moisturizer instantly moisturizes the skin
  • The moisturizer gets absorbed into the skin easily
  • But,I would suggest to use less amount of the product at first and if required then re-apply...less is more you see
  • If we squeeze-out a lot of product at a time then we need to rub it very nicely to get that absorbed(seamlessly) into the skin 
  • Post product-application,there is no cast left by the product which is really nice

  • Also,this product is made up of all the good ingredients that are required to keep the dry skin moisturized and healthy...awesome:)
  • The effect of the product stays for long and skin feels moisturized throughout the day
Overall,I like the Khadi Natural's Herbal Moisturizer in the Rose & Honey variant.

Con:

  • Just a little greasy as per my liking.
  • The scent of the body-moisturizer might be over-whelming to people with very sensitive nose
  • The bottle needs to be squeezed-out really hard to get the product

Will I re-purchase?
  • Yes,because it moisturizes my skin well & it's paraben-free.
  • I recommend this to people with dry/very dry skin and also,to all those who are looking for a budget-friendly and paraben-free body-moisturizer...do give it a try

It’s your go-to lipstick. From Pure Nude to Pink Lyric to Chic Red Round Lipstick is available in a jaw-dropping variety of shades.

There are 88 shades in this collection and I picked two shades called Chloe Chloe & Chaos.
                                               
       

Price : AED 42 / INR 475

My Experience:

Shades :
  • Chloe Chloe : It's an iridescent  pink shade with  blue/purple undertones(Fuschia or Rani pink).This shade has finely milled shimmers in it.I love this shade a lot.It has a satin finish and looks gorgeous.Suitable for all skin tones.But,not really suitable for daily-wear purposes.
  • Chaos : It's a classic  bright red lipstick with blue undertones.It is creamy in nature but, has more of a velvet matte of a finish rather than a satin one.I love this shade and is very much wearable and not over the top!
Swatches:

                               

Packaging:
  • The packaging is cool.Lipsticks in the Extra Creamy Round collection come in a black  plastic tube
  • The tube is sturdy & travel-friendly
  • The details such as product ingredients,shade number , name and shelf-life are mentioned on the tube
  • The packaging is sleek and can be carried out anywhere easily
  • Also,there is a colour-coded transparent band at the bottom part of the lipsticks in this collection
  • This band matches the shade of the lipstick that the tube contains.For eg. if Chloe is the lipstick then the band at the bottom is of red colour!
  • This really helps in checking out the shades,in case you have more than one lipstick from this range just like me :)                                              
             

Formula & Texture:
  • The lipsticks in the Extra Creamy Round lipstickcollection have a satin finish
  • Creamy texture
  • Strangely, the bright fuschia pink one(Chloe Chloe) has a satin-finish with loads of sheen and finely milled shimmers
  • On the other hand the red on(Chaos) has a very velvet matte kind of a finish with less sheen and no shimmer at all
  • The texture is really smooth
  • Highly pigmented and opaque in one single swipe
  • Keeps lips moisturized
  • Really good quality lipsticks...I must say :)
  • Doesn't tug to the lips and glides on smoothly
  • Experienced no feathering,flaking or bleeding!
  • Doesn't sit into fine lip-lines
  • Doesn't enhance any dry patches on the lips(but,please exfoliate your lips in advance)
  • Re-application of these lipsticks is not an issue.These lipsticks still glide-on smoothly.
                               
         

Fragrance:
Mild-floral fragrance.It's not overwhelming or bothersome.

Longevity:
  • Lasts for a really long time,about 6 hours on my lips...love it.It totally depends on how careful we are while taking meals
  • It easily survives heavy meals
  • Looses sheen as the time passes and turns into kind of a matte-finish
  • It fades away evenly leaving a slight stain behind
Con:
Transfers a lot initially and not smudge-proof

Will I re-purchase?

Yes,definitely.
  • My favorite is Chloe Chloe.It has my heart.I love this shade.
  • Also,the red one called Chaos is a very nice red lipstick.Looks really good on the lips.Not gaudy!
  • I love the formula of the lipsticks that I have
  • The shade range of the NYX Extra Creamy Round Lipsticks is awesome as well.
  • There is a huge variety of shades in the Extra Creamy Round lipsticks  collection.I recommend this lipstick collection to those who are looking for really affordable and good quality creamy lipsticks.Go get it!

Fragrance:

  • The deodorant body spray has a very strong floral(rosy) fragrance
  • Very refreshing
  • Spritz this and land into the heaven of fresh flowers...roses...divine
  • Really cool and feminine
  • Keeps bad body odour at bay...really:)

Longevity:

  • The deodorant's effect lasted on my skin throughout the day.It's awesome.
  • I usually spray the deodorant only once on moist skin(under-arms) and by the end of the day I noticed that it's effect was still there.I use this product daily.
  • This deodorant did not leave a white cast that many other deodorants leave on the skin...(wow)
Effective?
  • Yes,this deodorant works as claimed by the company
  • Experienced no white cast or any sort of skin irritation
  • The effect stays throughout the day!

Con:

  • Not alcohol-free
  • Might sting or make the underarms soar(people with very sensitive-skin)
Will I re-purchase?
No, generally I try not to use alcohol-based deodorants.
But, I recommend it to people who want to check out a good floral-scented deodorant body spray.
Don't forget that this product contains ALCOHOL.Know your skin type.If you do have a very sensitive skin then skip this product.

Review : Huda Beauty Liquid Matte Lipsticks,Minis |The Brown Edition

Hi Everyone!

Today I am going to review HUDA Beauty's Liquid Matte Lipsticks,Mini Brown Edition.

About Huda Beauty:
Huda Beauty is a successful YouTuber and a huge beauty influencer based out in Dubai,UAE.
http://hudabeauty.com/huda-kattan/

Product-Information:

Four crave-worthy minis gathered in a gorgeous monochromatic collection specifically curated to fit your latest obsession! Use each shade solo, or play with a combination to create a layered style of your own. The Brown Edition includes: 

- Trendsetter, a stylish brown nude (1.9ml)
- Flirt, a cheeky brown (1.9ml)
- Spice Girl, an iconic 90s brownish mauve (1.9ml)
- Vixen, a poisonous deep brown (1.9ml) 

The Liquid Matte tried and true comfort-wear formula from top beauty expert, Huda Kattan, is infused with antioxidants and an exclusive complex to help maintain the lips' hydration. The lightweight formula glides on a thin coat of color that intensifies as it sets to a matte, transfer-free finish with amazing staying power. You might even forget you're wearing anything on your lips at all! 

Color appearance may vary based on skin tone once set.

My Experience:

Shades:
  • Trendsetter- It's a perfect nude shade with orange undertones.Will suit all the skin tones

  • Spice Girl- Mauvy-nude that is a tad bit more brown when compared to Flirt.Suitable for all skin tones
  • Vixen- It's a very deep brown shade that will suit deep-skin tones well apart from fair and medium-skin tones!
