PEEL OFF MASK: i use this peel of mask only on my nose.. it is an okay product... this one is the freeman feeling beautiful peel off mask in pomegranate.. it does not do anything mind blowing but it does something maybe. FREEMAN CLAY MASK: i use this clay mask on the rest of my face,i use the freeman feeling beautiful clay mask in mint and lemon.. i first wash my using water only.. then i use a flat foundation brush to apply it evenly onto my skin.. i wait for 10 mins max and then i wash it off with some water... it makes my face soft and a clean.

fair and lovely fairness cream.

Image
i have heard about fair and lovely alot.. since i was a child till now.. because its always been there on the tv.. but tbh i never trusted this brand and did not want to try anything from this brand.. this june my sister gave this thing to me, it was less than half used. Now let me tell u... i m not bashing this brand or just stopping anyone from using it but i am just expressing my experience. Not hating on this brand. now this thing literally does not say it anywhere that its for a specific skin type so i assume its for all skin types.. i used it as a basic moisturizer. I have oily/problematic skin. so i have to make sure i use non comedogenic products. now i used this for a few nights just before going to bed. nothing ever leaves marks on my face even the worst acne i have had didnt leave any scars on my face.. i basically broke out cause of this product on my chin, cheek bones and a lil bit on my forehead.. now these areas on my face are for highlight and not for acne.. those we...

ROMANTIC COLOR GLOW KIT IN THAT GLOW.

Image
I am all over highlighting and glow on my cheekbones.. i found this glowkit while roaming in the market i thought it was the anastasia one..but when i saw it, it was not, it was for cheap price and the waulity of the two highlighters were amazing.. none of the shades matches the ones in the original glow kit but who cares? PACKAGING: The packaging looks just like the original one but i appreciate that they actually printed the name of their own brand and is not called 'anastasia' lol.. i really like the quality of the packaging it came with a flap similar to the actual packaging but i got rid of it recently. SHADES: coming to the actual shades.. it says that all of them are highlighters but no they are not. The top two are highlighters, true highlighters not shimmery not chunky.. The bottom two are powders...the formula of the powders is crap tho.. they are very much chalky and powders.. and makes a big mess. SWATCHES: sorry for the crappy picture. shade...

GENNY LIPSTICKS REVIEW..

Image
Matt lipsticks are always drying but they look gorgeous on the lips.. i am all about supporting brands and products from my country... i m always on hunt to buy locally available products.. PACKAGING: I love the color of the packaging because duh! its purple and the tube is golden.. but i hate that the packaging is flimsy, it doesnt close well and is not travel friendly howeever i  have fixed mine. SHADE: I have two shades of these lipsticks.. i like them both and both are very much wearable, the brown looks extremely dark but its the most beautiful dark shade.. SWATCH: 57 brown desire: very similar to rusty raisin from christine, a dark brown with red undertones.. 87 sand:  i love this one too, its like and everyday sort of shade..and is a nice pink. DO I RECOMMEND? Yes, i do recommend these if u dont mind matt lipsticks and a lil bit of flimsy packaging. PRICE: 120-150pkr

ROMANTIC COLOR MATT COLOR BEAUTY LIPGLOSS

Image
i have never worn red lipstick in my entire 16 years lived life :P.. This is also a liquid lipstick or matt color gloss...which i havent worn and am not even planning to.. PACKAGING: The packaging is a true copy of the loreal ones...except the top or lid of the tube is color coded with the actual color of the lipgloss.. SHADE: it is a raspberry sort of shade.. or u can say a red with alot of pink undertones..not flattering on me.. and the formula is too hell thick it is very difficult to apply it evenly and it smells sickly sweet like bubble gum.. SWATCH: DO I RECOMMEND? No, i dont recommend it... it is very thick and not the best one available in the market..  it dries very slowly and u will end up with red face once u r done applying it because it is too messy. PRICE: 200pkr.

ponds acne clear multi action facial foam + scrub

Image
ponds is the brand that i have heard of since my childhood, i have used alot of products from ponds and i have had a good experience with this brand.i usually get bored of products very easily, and if they last for ages then it really irritates me.. i have used the carbon facewash which was too good that one lasted me for 6 months can u believe haha! i had my eyes on this one since soo long and i purchased it once i finished my clean and clear cleanser.. now coming to the product, it says it works as a facial foam and a scrub which is great! i usually dont like harsh scrubs on my face but this one is too mild for my liking.. i really wanted to love this because it looks too promising.....  it definitely works as a facial foam but i dont think that it cleans my face completely.... now coming to the actual point.. this product contains salicylic acid so u dont really need much of it because it will make ur acne worse.. now i have oily problematic skin.. but my skin got alot bet...

sweet touch lipstick shade 766 matt

Image
After hearing a heck ton about sweet touch cosmetics, even though not liking their mascara and foundation i decided to giver their lipsticks a try.. i still want to try their eyeshadows too but i think this is a company that doesnt work for me... packaging: the packaging is quite nice.. because purple is my favourite color.. with a lil bit of silver detailing,, as u can see that the writing has started to come off which drives me crazy,, and its only been a while since i have purchase this.. anywhoo.. the packaging is quite well,, not flimsy and is travel friendly.. SHADE: The shade is a pale, pink but doesnt wash u out.. which is great.. it is a nice everyday color but it is a pink and i wont call it a nude. SWATCH: MY VERDICT: seriously guys, i dont see anything much in these lipsticks these are very drying on my lips and i know its a matt lipsticks... i have other matts in my collection but none of them are as drying as this one.. i m not saying i hate these,, i d...

christine princess lipsticks review!

Image
The first lipstick i ever bought was from christine, i didnt know much about makeup at that time but lipstick was my obsession since childhood, i have four lipsticks from this brand but sad to say, they arent available here anymore, the matt ones... i do see the galaxy lipsticks in the market but not these ones... i do wish they bring them back! packaging: i forgot to take a picture of the outer packaging but is black,,tbh i really dont like the packaging much, it breaks soo easily, all four of my lipsticks have cracked packaging, it doesnt close very well and hence making it not travel friendly. SHADES/SWATCHES: i have swatched only three because i have two of the same shades.. that one is called rusty raisin and it was my go to lipstick.. it is the first shade.. i used to mix it with the last one.. rusty raisin (151):  the first shade is called rusty raisin, it is a very beautiful brick red shade.. pearly ciate (116): a pink shade, not flattering on my lip because i...

essence matt touch blush (20 berry me up)

Image
summer is all about being comfortable no one wants a gorgeous dress in which u r sweating no one wants a full on caked up face.. its all about being minimal and going for the things that make u feel comfortable.. with that being said i will also say that it is too hard for us makeup lovers to ignore wearing makeup if not u, thats how i feel about myself.. a lil hint of lipstick on thee lips, blush on the cheeks and waterproof mascara (in my case) on the eyes and voilah! u are good to go.. i decluttered all of my blushes that i had recently because they were not going with my taste these days,while i was thereshopping in the market i saw these... these are soo beautiful they had a satin formula and the matt one.. those ones were good too.. but i prefer matts alot more.. each formula comes in three shade ( i guess) all the other ones were out of stock that is why i had to go with this. PACKAGING: packaging is ofcourse the same as that all of the essence powders have... however, th...

essence strobing highlighter

Image
everyone has or wants to have a product from essence cosmetics in their collection.. i am not a big fan of their mascaras or single eyeshadows the shimmery ones.. i wanted to try some of their powder products and as this on is new in the market so i wanted to get my hands on this one.. as usual lets start off with the packaging.. packaging: the thing i like about essence's compacts is that they are so big that they will last u for ages.. this one come with 9grams of product which is great... i like how it has this super cute sticker 'i m new' haha! then, it has the same packaging as the other products from this brand.. clear lid and easy to see the product inside.. product: this product has a heck ton of shimmer. i dont like shimmery looks and i didnt like this in the beginning but now i love it.. it gives me a subtle natural look which is not too harsh, not over the top... it looks natural if u use the right amount of product.. the shade is called 'let it glow...

beauty uk posh masquerade palette..

Image
it is too hard to find a good palette in the market here.. and even though the ones which are available are not the best.. this is the first thing that i have tried from beauty uk.. packaging: the packaging is ok.. i dont like it much.. i dont like white packaging because it gets dirty soo easily.. inside it has a strip of mirror which is too good because i hate it when compacts and palettes do not come with mirrors. SHADES: It has 10 shades which i dont mind because the pan size is actually quite good. now coming to the shadows. it has some two matts and 8 shimmery shadows. some of them lack pigmentation and is not even swatchable. ROW 1: shade 1: a pink shimmery shadow which is beautiful! (shimmery) shade 2: which is not even showing in the pic because it is not pigmented enough. it is a shimmery off white. (shimmery) shade 3: a nice light grey with an undertone of olive.(shimmery) shade 4: a silvery white. (shimmery) shade 5: now this is the worst s...

becute waterproof long lasting lipstick

Image
everyone is in search of a budget friendly, and a beautiful liquid lipstick.. well let me tell u know i have found one.. there is a thing with locally sold makeup brands some of their products are over the top best! and some of them are duds. this one is definitely a hit for me.. so lets see how beautiful and gorgeous this product is. this is how it looks like^ packaging: it has that traditional hard plastic see through/clear tube and the top of the packaging is a mint color which i m not a big fan of.. now let me tell u the best part. The writing on the top of this tube does not rub off yayyy! shade: This one is in the shade 923, i think that they should come up with some names for their lipshades.  now this is an extremely dark shade.. ignore the other swatch lol. i only wear this when i am going to a wedding or if there is a special ocassion. which i actually am sad because i should have bought a color which i can wear on a day to day basis but i am definitely go...

Image
Lipsticks are my weakness.. i love them.. if i am going out and i just want to put on one thing on my face that would be a lip product.. i have collected a few of these glamorous face lipsticks now.. i was crazy over matt lipsticks but i feel like something comfortable in your collection is a necessary which u can just put on very easily and dont worry about it budging and everything. these are the shades that i have.. i have four of them and i love all of them.. i havent worn these a whole lot but i have definitely tested these. packaging: This is what the packaging looks like it is quite chubby,heavy and is magnetic.. i love the packaging. the only thing is that the bottom of the bullet scratches like crazy as u can see in this pic.. this is a brand new lipstick and it happened to almost all of them SWATCHES: They swatch gorgeously. 1.  The first one is in shade 28, a very nice peachy or light coral shade. 2. it is in the shade 38 and is a brown nude shade. ...

KISS BEAUTY HIGHLIGHTER PRO PALETTE.

Image
i was shopping for my self in may and wanted to buy some good stuff for my birthday. i was just roaming around the market and then i saw this palette. i just wanted to swatch and then i bought it. this is how it looks like.. it has the kylie design on the front which is quite funny.. but kiss beauty is a brand that makes copies or dupes of highend makeup. Packaging: The packaging is quite nice black from the back clear from the front which i like as it is easy to see the product inside. kylie design on the front and the product itself has the same designs. the packaging reminds me of the mac quads. :P Shades: It has four shades of highlighters, Swatches: the swatches definitely look very pretty.. now let me tell u these are definitely not the best highlighters of the world but they are definitely worth the money.. Formula: these are very soft not creamy and these are good if u want a blinding highlight.. now let me tell u these are very metallic and a bit chunky so u have ...

GLAMOROUS FACE USA LONG LASTING LIQUID LIPSTICKS.

Image
liquid lipsticks are still in the fashion zone and we all love them.. finding a good liquid lip in the local market is definitely a task because all of them are extremely drying.. this one is not the best one in my collection i dont call these my fav because these are extremely drying and not my cup of tea but the shades are right up my alley! lets have a look of the product. Packaging: i really love how simple the packaging is.. the packaging is definitely see through and the tube is made of hard plastic, it ofcourse comes with a doe foot applicatior which is quite chubby and not that precise.. Shades: i have the shades 17 and 18 coincidently.. thats what the shades look like swatched on my arm.. SHADE 17: This shade is soo beautiful it is an orange based nude or maybe an orange peachy nude.. it is soo flattering on me but the only issue is with the formula... but i like this shade so much that i can bear the dryness of this product because of the shade. SHADE 18: The s...

Essence all about nudes eyeshadow palette.

Image
hello there! i am trying to continue with blogging here...i will make sure i post a complete indepth review here once in a while.. today im gonna be reviewing the essence all about nudes eyeshadow palette it was on my wishlist for such a long time and i finally got my hands on it now. lets take a look of the palette.. so this is how the palette looks like from the outside.. packaging: The palette looks quite simple it is a transparent plastic case.. it is nothing fancy but i like how simple it is.. it is very easy to see as its see through and the packaging is quite sturdy shades: now lets talk about the shade a lil... this is a very my kind of palette because all the shades in here are what i actually use.. The top of shadows is actually sprayed with a layer of shimmer and the mattes are sprayed with a layer of satin powder i guess hahah :P the shadows are extremely soft which makes it not travel friendly because they can crumble quite easily due to their soft texture.

St.ives apricot scrub

Image
A good scrubbing and exfoliating is very necessary for a good clear and healthy skin. The st.ives scrubs are one of the most raved about scrubs around the world. Sadly, in pakistan u dont actually know if u r buying the real products or the fake ones. This one is however not the original one but it is made in thailand. The texture is creamy and it has some small granules. This one however, i dont recommend for the face. It could be a good body scrub. But the scrubbing particles are too harsh to be used on the face. It does not show any bad reactions on my face but the texture in not pleasant on the face. I dont recommend this one and i m not gonna be repurchasing it. Price:350pkr.

Be cute hello flawless face powder.

Image
I just got into contouring but i still dont like it to be too much instense. I just like a shadow on my cheek bones. I got this becute powder for contouring a while back. This is a pefect shade for me. But this is a dud product. First of all everything rubs off from the top of the packaging. However the quality of the packaging is very good and it is very compact. Now the formula of the product is not nice at all. It is very chalky.. And the product might go very very soon because just when u touch the brush with it just kicks off a heck lot powder. I m gonna try to find a similar shade in christine because christine's compact powder is very good. Shade: the shade is called bronze Price: it retailed for 220pkr.

Sweet face color stay long lasting and non transferable lip glosses

Image
Hello girls. Today i have got my review on some liquid lipsticks.. I got one of them just the other day.. And the first one i got back in may 2016... Whenever i am going to a wedding or having a long day out liquid lipsticks are what i opt for. These are one of the cheapest and best quality liquid lipsticks available in the local makeup shops. Packaging: It is a normal sized lip tube.. And the wand is very nice and precise for easy application. The stopper inside is quite big so there is no way of wasting any product! Formula: At first, i thought that these are very drying but then i tried some more liquid lip products from other brands and i couldnt even open my mouth then. Lol. These are very pigmented and i like putting them on with a brush. Shade. 17 This is the first shade that i got. And it is a very beautiful coral pink shade. I always always always wear this. I wear these lippies with different lip liners underneath and it gives me a very very beautiful shade and some nic...
