<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Now that we know what Primers are and what they do, its time to find one that's good for you. Primers can be a bit expensive so finding one that suits you and the one that would help you target certain specific problems is the only way its going to be worth the money that you spend on it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<b><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">What type of Primers to buy?</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Since they are going to be on your skin for long hours sometimes, it is always good to look for Primers that have some skin care benefits. It is obviously an added expense so its best to look for one that suits your skin and can be worn in place of a moisturiser. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><u><br /></u></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><u><b>All purpose ones</b></u></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Ive put a collage of some of the popular all purpose Primers available in India. These are the ones that suit everyone and make for good general use.. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Are you thinking "Primers.. now what on earth are they? until recently no one knew about them n now everyone seems to be talking about them!" If that is what is going on in your mind, worry not! Just read this post and you will know all that you need to about Primers, what they do, what is the difference between a primer and a moisturiser and whether or not you need one!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>What is a Primer?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Primer is a sort of cream or lotion that 'primes' or gets the skin ready for makeup. There are primers available for you face (to be used under foundation), for your eyes (to be used under eye-shadow) and for the lips (underneath lipstick)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">What do they do?</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">They prepare the skin for makeup by hydrating it and making the surface even to improve the coverage of makeup and to increase the staying power of makeup. They form an ideal base coat beneath foundations or eye shadows helping them spread more evenly. Some primers have defined purposes and target specific areas like open pores and help reduce them visibly, cover fine lines, while the others could be used specifically for reducing redness, dullness or for illuminating lifeless skin. Some primers have a mattifying effect on your skin that is excellent for women with oily skin. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>What is the difference between a moisturizer and a primer?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Moisturisers are what we have always used under makeup for ages.. But now that we have primers formulated to do specific tasks (like covering pores etc) we use them especially as they are more effective in increasing the longevity of makeup. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I know a lot of people who use moisturizers and then a primer on top before applying makeup. Now that is something I would recommend only if you have extremely dry skin. For everyone else, I suggest that using a primer alone is good enough as sometimes putting on a moisturizer and then a primer and then makeup on top can become a bit too much especially in the summers and if you have oily skin..</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">When to use a Primer?</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Is it a must all the time? No. It isn't a must that you use a Primer all the time beneath makeup. It can be really helpful to use primers on days that you need your makeup to stay on for long and if you have certain things that you want to correct in your skin. On regular days it is fine to just use a moisturiser under makeup. It is great to know what needs to be corrected on your skin and then getting a primer that resolves that issue. That would make it easier for you to decide whether to buy an all purpose primer or one that focuses on a specific function like refining fine lines, absorbing oil, illuminating skin or even reducing pores. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hope this post helps you in solving some Primer mysteries that you might have had in your mind. Read my post </span><a href="http://rougealert.blogspot.in/2013/04/primer-101-find-perfect-primer.html" target="_blank">Primer 101: Find the Perfect Primer</a> <span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">that will help you buy the perfect Primer for yourself!</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FKj0792dh9g/UXcIPq9hsrI/AAAAAAAACZo/FH_hrklm7ms/s1600/beauty_mistakes_eqd8t-600x480.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><img border="0" height="318" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FKj0792dh9g/UXcIPq9hsrI/AAAAAAAACZo/FH_hrklm7ms/s400/beauty_mistakes_eqd8t-600x480.jpg" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">We all have some of these terrible habits that we're not proud of.. these habits have been a part of our beauty rituals for ages and some of these we are even aware of and are outright destructive but never really give up.. Lets take a minute to review some of the most common ones, <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">because maybe, just maybe, there's a chance that kicking these bad beauty habits will make us more beautiful in the long run :)</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>1. Skipping Sunscreen</b> in winters or when its not too sunny outside or when we're in such a hurry! All the smart girls know by now that even when its not too sunny, the UVA rays of the sun that penetrate through the clouds, cause our skin to age. So promise never to step out of he house until you have covered all your exposed skin with a trusted sun screen!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>2. Biting lips </b>consciously or unconsciously because your lips are always chapped and split. Regularly licking or biting lips can make them even drier than they originally are. good way to break this vicious cycle is to keep your lips hydrated. (I personally do this a lot!) and feel that applying plain Vaseline to my lips before sleeping at night really helps. I wake up with smooth lips. Also, I never leave the house without a lip balm.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>3. Not removing makeup before going to bed is a bad bad thing to do! </b>Please clean your face and remove any traces of makeup before sleeping no matter how tired you are. Makeup along with dirt and oil, clogs pores and sends your skin into an over production of 'sebum' (not a good thing this is), giving you unpleasant surprises filled with zits the next morning. I understand how hard it can be on some days so if going to wash your face is looking impossible, just keep some wipes by your bedside table to remove that daily grime and wake up to a clean and fresh face!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>4. Using moisturizer only when skin feels dry </b>is wrong. They not only hydrate your skin but replenish lost moisture and help your skin face harsh whether. So no matter what skin type you have, find yourself one that suits you!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>5. Ignoring your neck</b> is not fair, especially as the skin on your neck is more delicate than your face and can start sagging or develop fine lines if neglected! So while applying makeup, creams or face mask, don't forget the neck. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>6. Plucking grey hair </b>is hard not to do (ask me!) specially when you have the one of two shiny silver strands right above your forehead! The truth is that they are going to grow right back only short and stubby and even more noticeable :(</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>7. Holding on to makeup forever </b>is something that I have seen many people do. I understand that it would hurt a lot to throw out that super expensive cream or mascara that has been<b> </b>in your kitty forever but skin infections or conjunctivitis is not worth it! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>IMP NOTE: Shelf life of various makeup items</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Lipsticks, glosses and lip liners - up to 2 years</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Mascara - ideally 90 days + or - one month</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Eye shadows and eye liners - 4-5 years</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Creams and cleansers - 1 year</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Foundations and concealers - 1 year</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>8. Excessive exfoliation </b>can lead to oversensitive skin and even broken capillaries (ouch!). Always use gentle exfoliators to wash away dead skin and to give your face that beautiful glow.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>9. Picking on pimples or popping zits</b> is something we all know is not right! One moment of relief that popping them gives you can lead to a huge red spot on your face and develop craters on your skin that might last forever!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>10. Using acetone</b> instead of nail paint removers is really harmful for the nails. I have noticed how some salons use it sneakily during a pani-pedi. Nail polish removers sold by most cosmetic companies are a lot milder than acetone available at drug stores that can lead the surface of your nails to become yellow and rough. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So there! Ive given us all something to think about and hopefully we will break some of these habits and come out sashaying all swan like! (hahah)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">Hi,
beautiful ladies, this is my 1<sup>st</sup> review ever on any website and I
have no idea as to why didn’t I review any products before. I have always had
struggle with daily face cream, kept trying one after another but never got
satisfied. I wasted so much money and products in finding the ideal one until
one day I found this wonder product at such a reasonable price... I was at Fab
India to buy my hair products, I specially like avocado hair conditioner and
then I saw this sitting prettily at the glass shelf. I checked the ingredients
and immediately bought it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Silk protein nourishing cream comes in a white and maroon jar and is quite
handy and lightweight. This cream is white in color. It has a nice, mild floral
fragrance to it. A small amount of product is required for the entire face. I
carry this cream daily to office as its very light and easy to carry. It
doesn’t make my skin oily or greasy, nor does it break me out. It only makes my
skin better by adding suppleness to the skin. Formulated with Sunflower oil,
Olive oil, vitamin E and Sericin - a silk protein, this cream is ideal for
nourishing dry, dull, lifeless skin. Regular application leaves the skin soft
and smooth. Ideal for summers and winters but of course it doesn’t fight the
blemishes and acne marks on your skin but combats dryness.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My combination - oily skin (combination in winters and oily in summers) does not like facials :( </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Every time ive got one, I've had pimples the very next day! And believe me there is not even a single type that I havnt tried that was recommended by the salon people.. all those Kasmara, Oxy, fruit, herbal, kaya and what not have been a complete waste of time and money for me. Even the most sensitive ones have done more damage than good :'(. I could go on venting about this topic but I'd rather get on to what works for me instead. Its simple and home made and the best part is that it works! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ingredients:-</div>
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li style="text-align: justify;">Besan (Gram flour. It has skin lightening properties that gently remove the tan and is great for skin that is prone to acne) - 2 spoons </li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Haldi (Turmeric. It is a herbal antiseptic and combined with besan gives a glow) - 1 pinch</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Juice of 1 lemon (Lemon is a natural antioxidant and a bleaching agent and lightens the dark spots)</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Grated orange peel (It is a high source of Vitamin C and maintains the natural balance of skin oils. It absorbs excess oil and keeps the skin tight)</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Curd - 1 spoon (Curd has soothing properties that help ease any skin irritation by cooling the skin)</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Honey - 1 spoon (It contains Vitamins B & C and keeps the skin supple, hydrated and elastic. Regular use protects the skin against dryness and wrinkles)</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mix all these ingredients together and you have a gentle scrub and mask that you can use as frequently as possible. The quantity of the mask that comes out of all these put together is good enough to last a whole week. So I just put it in a bowl, cover it with cling film and store it in the fridge after using.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For girls who have extremely oily skin should put only have a tea spoon of honey. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Expect a slightly thick consistency which you can lighten by adding a bit of rose water if you like. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apply this pack all over your face and neck and leave it on for 20 mins. Wash it off once its dry and follow it with a moisturiser. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Every single time I use this, I feel like my skin has become softer, clearer and it glows! As if Ive just got a facial done! I love this pack and on regular use (2-3 times a week), I feel like my the dark spots on my face left behind by ungodly pimples have become lighter.. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I love the subtle glow on my skin that I get after using this mask and I would recommend this to everyone. Just try and you will be hooked to it just like me! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I'm not a daily user of foundations but when I do use them, I have different needs on different days. Sometimes I want the coverage to be sheer and other times, I want a more solid one depending upon the occasion and if I would be wearing it in the day or evening. After tons of research, testing and trying two foundations make it to my list of favourites! They are Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua and MAC Mactchmaster. Lets look at each of these and see what makes them my top 2!<br />
<br />
<b>Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua - Ultra Light Skin Perfecting Makeup: Price Rs 2600 for 30ml</b><br />
<b>Available at Chanel Store, Imperial Hotel, New Delhi </b>(This unfortunately is the only store Chanel has in entire Delhi NCR :( but I hear that one more is opening soon in Select City Walk. Chennai too got a new Chanel Store recently. Check <a href="http://www.chanel.com/fashion/storelocator/8-1" target="_blank">HERE</a> Chanel store locator for all the cities in India)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-f11FGvir2nA/UWak5vyD2DI/AAAAAAAACXM/WglOZE7WEwM/s1600/DSC03930.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-f11FGvir2nA/UWak5vyD2DI/AAAAAAAACXM/WglOZE7WEwM/s400/DSC03930.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
I picked shade 40 Beige as it went really well with my skin. As the name suggests it actually is an 'Ultra light skin perfecting' makeup. The consistency is light and smooth and just disappears into the skin, making it look like your own skin but better! It has a sheer coverage so its excellent for the day time and leaves me with a fresh dewy finish on my skin. It comes with SPF 15 and photographs really well. This is why I absolutely love this foundation. The only negative is the price but believe me a little bit of product goes a long way so a bottle would last you 8-12 months! Its ideal for girls who have mostly normal, even skins with little to cover as it doesnt provide much coverage.<br />
<br />
<b>MAC Matchmaster Foundation: Price Rs 2300 for 35 ml</b><br />
Available at all MAC stores across India (Check <a href="http://www.maccosmetics.in/?q=website_admin/events/&menu=965" target="_blank">HERE</a> for Store Locations)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NQ0riXDu6bo/UWaozvJFRyI/AAAAAAAACXc/ojrVJXmkJCU/s1600/DSC03927.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="267" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NQ0riXDu6bo/UWaozvJFRyI/AAAAAAAACXc/ojrVJXmkJCU/s400/DSC03927.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
I'm a shade 4 in MAC Match master. Now this is semi matt finish foundation with medium coverage which is biuldable. I use it mostly while going out in the evenings. This too blends very well with the skin without looking cakey or ashy. Its perfect for girls with combination to oily skins as it reduces shine and remains fresh for a very long time. Again its a bit expensive but will last really long. The benefits clearly outweigh the negatives. I would always recommend investing in a good foundation as it can really make or break your entire look.<br />
Below are some swatches from both the foundations. Hope you found this useful!<br />

Im sorry the pics with the foundations blended havent come out so well (trust me I tried hard) but they blend really well with the skin so with both the foundations your skin just looks better :)<br />

<ol>
<li>Foundations are supposed to even
out the skin on your face and neck and not be used as a mask to completely
change your skin colour or texture. After applying foundation, if you still
feel that there are blemishes you need to cover, use a concealer!</li>
<li>Please and I say pretty please
don’t aim to change the colour if your skin with foundation. </li>
<li>Cover most of the exposed area of
your body with foundation and not just face and neck. If you’re wearing a
backless dress or a strapless top, then just try and rub a little on those
areas otherwise those areas can look very different.</li>
<li>Always look for the foundation
colour in daylight</li>
<li>Formulation is as important as
colour! A foundation that looks great on your best friend might not do the
trick with you.</li>
<li>Be a smart shopper. I know how sometimes
the SAs at stores here can really push a product. But be sure before you buy
something n don’t be afraid to ask questions and ask to try out a foundation on
yourself before buying it. Remember, you are the customer with the cash!</li>
<li>Take care of your skin.
Foundation will only even it out, however for that flawless skin, you must take
care of it.</li>
<li>Apply a little bit of foundation at
a time even if you want full coverage. Applying in layers helps you understand
how much of it you want and this way the foundation lasts longer!</li>
<li>There is no set rule about this
but I normally use concealer after applying foundation only on areas that need
a bit of extra concealing. This helps me in applying just the right amount of
product and not overloading my face with them.</li>
<li>Again no set rule about this –
even though foundation can be applied with fingers, a brush or sponge, I prefer
using a brush and recommend the same to all, especially the ones using medium
to full coverage foundations. Sponges for me are a no no! They tend to absorb a
lot of product and I feel are just an added expense as when you use one you have
to just throw it away. (You cant possibly keep washing and reusing these.)
Brushes help with an even application that isn’t too messy. Tinted
moisturizers, BB Creams or very light coverage foundations can be applied with
fingers alone.</li>
</ol>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">Foundation is one of those make up products that has
created quite some confusion amongst us. Just like a lot of girls I know, it is
something I don’t use everyday but most women I come across are confused about
various aspects of foundations. Whether or not to use it, the type of
foundation to use, what are the good brands in the market are just some of the
mysteries that have been eluding us for a while. The common concern among all
is that no one wants to look too made-up, cakey or obvious after using
foundations and so most of the women get them wrong or just simply avoid them.
In this post I’m going to try and demystify some of these theories and hope
that it will answer some of the key questions that we have so that finally we
can to a happy agreement about foundations and make the right decisions! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">Who needs
foundation?<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">I feel most of the women in their late 20’s require
foundation be it light of full coverage. Even if we have good skin, as we age
our skin’s ability to look even or radiant reduces. Depending upon the state of
our skin, some women might require it every day but mostly we require them on
important days when we might get photographed or need to look our best! On a daily
basis though I for e.g. just use a tinted moisturizer but on important days I
feel I need something that will even out my skin texture and bring about a
clean face on which I can apply the rest of my make up.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">How to choose the
right foundation?<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">Formulation and
texture</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;"> - As
important as it is to match the shade of foundation with your skin, you MUST
match it with the type of skin you have. There are different types of
foundations in the market for this exact reason: liquid, powder and cream, matt
or dewy finish. So the formulation and the texture of the foundation are the 1<sup>st</sup>
thing that you must choose according to your skin type. Good news is that
whether you have normal, combination, dry or oily skin, there is a foundation
for everyone! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<u><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">Combination and Oily Skin</span></u><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;"> – Compact powders or Matt
foundations like Lancome Tient Idole, Clinique Anti Blemish Solutions Liquid
Makeup, Makeup Forever Mat Velvet Foundation, Revlon Colorstay Foundation, MAC
Mineralized Skin Finish Natural<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<u><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">Dry Skin</span></u><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;"> – Dewey finish foundations like Chanel Vitalumiere,
Lancome Tient Miracle, Mac Face and Body <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">Type of coverage</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;"> - The second thing to consider is
the type of coverage you need. Light, medium or full depending upon how much
you want to cover on your face. I cannot stress enough on the importance of the
above two points. I know its important to get the right shade but believe me
getting the above two points is equally or even more important. Keeping these
points in mind will help you in getting a foundation that not only blends very
well in your skin but also stays on for the longest time! Remember these points
and your foundation will never look cakey, too shiny or too obvious!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<u><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">Light coverage</span></u><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;"> – Mac Face and Body, Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua, Lancome Tient
Miracle<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<u><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">Medium to full coverage</span></u><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;"> – Mac Matchmaster, <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;">The shade</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 10.0pt;"> –Once you have figured out the
type of foundation and coverage you need you are ready to go shopping! Keep a
small compact mirror in your bag when you go foundation shopping. It will be
extremely helpful in getting the right shade. I feel its best way to pick the
right shade is to go to a store and ask them to apply it on half of your face.
Give it about 5 minutes to set and step out of the store in natural daylight. Now
check your face in the compact mirror outside and see if it really matches.
Natural light is the best light to check your makeup in and even if you like a
shade indoors, outside, you will really know if it is right for you. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I dont know what my life would be with eye liner.. I mean seriously what will I ever do without some definition or detailing. Just like so many other girls I know, for me too, eyeliners along with kajals are absolute everyday essentials.. I prefer not to ever step out of the house without having them on. I have tried and tested so many over time but the ones reviewed here were my latest buys and read on below to know how they fare! </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I have been using eye liners for a very long time now so personally prefer the ones with brush applicators but dont mind using the felt tip ones either as long as the tips are precise and they have a long staying power. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Chambor</b> is a clear winner for me! A deep dark black eyeliner that stays solid hour after hour and lasts the whole day and half the night! Its perfect even for the summer months and wont come off despite any heat, humidity or tears! The only way you can get it off is with a proper makeup remover. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Lakme Insta Liner and Black Impact</b> have always been and probably will remain my back up. They do the job but need retouching often, especially during the summers. I like the length of the the brush that comes with Lakme Black Impact. They both take forever to dry which is not something I love.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Colorbar</b> is good but I just dont like its felt tip applicator. Its not precise enough for me and thats the only reason why I wouldnt buy it again.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">There is nothing super about <b>Loreal Super Liner</b>. The color isnt good enough and the felt tip applicator isnt very steady which make it difficult to use. It comes off easily and the price at which it comes, it has been one of the most disappointing eye liners ever. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hope this helps in the search of the perfect basic black liquid eyeliner!</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Highlighters are one of my favourite makeup products ever! Dont care if I have lipsticks, or blushes, or foundation but highlighters are things I just cant live without.. I have all sorts of them, cream, liquid, powder from various brands. I had read a lot about MAC Prep + Prime Highlighters and went ahead and bought myself one!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>MAC says: </b><span style="text-align: left;">A
pen-style highlighter that efficiently brings a soft sheer wash of colour to
the skin. With its precision application, adds radiance just where you want it.
Goes on smoothly for cushion-soft wear. Use over makeup for highlights,
touch-ups or under makeup to brighten and prime. </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Theese highlighters come in three colors: Bright Forecast, Radiant Rose and Light Boost</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">After having tried all three, I felt Bright Forecast went well with my skin tone. It's not too yellow and not too pink. Light boost and Radiant Rose are too light and probably best for extremely fair people. These highlighters are slightly different from your regular ones in two ways:</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">1 - They contain no shimmer particles</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">2 - They can be used in the under eye area to lighten or as they say 'awaken' it</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The pen style shape makes it very easy to apply them. Just one sweep across the under eye and cheek bone area is enough to bring in the brightening effect. They make the skin look smoother and clearer and hence more alight without being shiny or glittery. That makes them perfect for the day time. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I normally use a very little amount under the eye as I have dark circles and the use there makes the area more obvious I feel. So I would reccomend the same to all the girls with dark circles - just use it on the cheek bones, brow area or the bridge of your nose. The consistensy is light and slightly creamy which is why the product glides on the skin easily and blends well. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Consistensy - very light and smooth and blends very well</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The shade is perfect for most Indian faces</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Contains no shimmer particles</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Excellent for use in the day time without making it look very obvious</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Can be used either under or on top of make up (I usually use it on top just one areas that need highlighting)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Very light and handy </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The pen style dispenser makes it easy to use</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Expensive (like all things MAC, but then a little product goes a long way so it would last you a good few months)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Colorbar True Gloss Lip Gloss Range</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Now I have to give it to Colorbar for they have come up with a great over all range of lip gloss shades with their True Gloss Lip Gloss collection. I love the shine of a lip gloss but for anything in the evening Ive gone back to my trusted lipsticks for they really stay for a long time and usually a normal lip gloss can never match the color intensity of lipsticks.. But we get a best of both the worlds with Colorbar True Gloss! They are a lipstick and a lip gloss rolled into one! The full range has 10 shades and below are my favourites:-</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Nectar Orange</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Coral Craving</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Radiant Pink </span></li>
</ul>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">As you can tell, Nector Orange is similar to Coral Craving. In fact I would call Nector Orange the brighter and more intense cousin of Coral Craving. Both Look fabulous!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The pop of color that they bring to your face makes it look very fresh and summary! Normally in the day time when I wear them and I feel that they're a bit too bright, I just dab them a bit with a tissue and they look perfect! </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The best part is that they stay on for a very long time..like about 8-9 hours easily, without causing any patchy dryness. A must buy for everyone who likes bright colors and would love to bring a bit </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Im wearing Coral Craving in the pic below.. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Love the shades and their color intensity</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Very good staying power</span><br />

Summers can give a real hard time to the skin and specially to makeup in the day time. Im talking about that sweaty, oily, uneasy feel you get when you've got make up on and you're out and about in the sun. Here are a few tips to let your skin breathe easy and to look good in the summer sun!<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Keep your skin hydraded with a good moisturizer with SPF</li>
<li>Instead of foundations, try a tinted moisturizer or a BB cream. They are great for the day time as they provide a light veil of protection from the sun and cover any uneven spots on the face. (I personally like the Garnier BB cream)</li>
<li>Go with nude gloss on your lips or just a lip balm. (i love the Nivea fruity shine ones. They feel good on the lips and the light tint of color in them makes it perfect for the day!)</li>
<li>Try blushes in peachy shades to bring out a splash or brightness in your face</li>
<li>Keep your hair tamed and tied in a stylish updo or a girly side braid</li>
<li>And last but not the least.. Smile! Coz what Audrey Hepburn said is true "Happy girls are the pretties girls! :)</li>
</ul>

Liquid Review<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-n0z9n_OOudk/UV8YGou_ZFI/AAAAAAAACP8/tMcQ6iKGaeQ/s1600/M7YN.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-n0z9n_OOudk/UV8YGou_ZFI/AAAAAAAACP8/tMcQ6iKGaeQ/s320/M7YN.jpg" width="168" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.0pt;">I bought
MAC Strobe Liquid a while ago as a part of my quest for finding the perfect
highlighters for the face. The SA told me that they have the same product in
cream form as well but since since I have a combination to oily skin, the
liquid one would be best for me. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.0pt;">MAC Clains
– Blending soft focus diffusers with iridescent pigments, this ultra-fluid
strobe formula produces a soft radiant light on the skin, reducing the
appearance of skin imperfections by providing a natural looking glow. Spreads
on smoothly and absorbs quickly leaving the skin looking healthier and more
radiant. It is a lighter weight addition to the popular strobe cream.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.0pt;">Directions</span></b><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.0pt;"> – Use a pea size amount either
mixed with the foundation. You can also apply it only on areas of your face that
you want to highlight. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.0pt;"><br />
<b>My experience</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.0pt;">The stobe
liquid is a non oily product that I have used in the following ways:-<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<ul style="margin-top: 0cm;" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.0pt;">Mixed with the foundation and
applied all over the face<o:p></o:p></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.0pt;">On certain areas of your face,
on top of foundation<o:p></o:p></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.0pt;">Without foundation, to just
highlight certain areas<o:p></o:p></span></li>
</ul>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.0pt;">The is a
subtle silvery white colour and it is one of the few highlighters that have
come across that have NO visible shimmer particles. Now that is something I
love because I hate to see tiny specs of shimmer on the face making it look
unnaturally shiny. (Shimmer is sometimes great in the evenings but in the day
it can look a bit too much). I wanted a highlighter that just blends with my
skin creating an illusion of a glowing, beautiful and healthy looking skin and
the Strobe Liquid does that extremely well! The texture is smooth and just
glides on the skin and settles making it look absolutely beautiful. I am so
happy with it! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.0pt;">I use it
with or without foundation on days that my skin needs an instant uplift. Mixing
it with foundation and applying it all over the face, I feel is not such a good
idea as it tends to even highlight the areas that you don’t want too much focus
on (e.g. Under the eyes etc.) So I use it on my cheek bones, bridge of my nose
and on the area right on top of my lips and it does the job! Using it on
certain areas after applying the foundation is also okay but you need to put it
before the foundation sets and blend the two together for an even finish. A
great product if you love the ‘no makeup’ look and can be used daily!</span></div>

MAC’s new collection reflects this state of mind and style. It starts with
dramatic eyes and lips pumped with vivid colour to project power while cheeks
are softly chiseled with natural tones. And nailing it for overall
presentation, MAC’s high-gloss high lacquer.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

I tried FE for the first time at the behest of my ex-flatmate who had
brought home this scrub in a tiny jar and I was hooked on to it the minute she
took the lid off and I put on a little bit on my face. It smells like being
around roses with a subtle whiff of apricots and a gentle kiss of honey! And oh
how I absolutely loved the feel of this scrub on my face! I would bathe in it
if it wasn’t so expensive! </div>

The consistency of the FE Hand Pounded Organic Fruit scrub is slightly
thick yet gentle on the skin. Normally over time and especially during the
winter months, as it does get a little thicker, I add a bit of rose water to
get the right consistency. Most of the scrubs make my combination skin very
stretchy in places but this one is perfect. Though it should be used simply
like a scrub, I normally take a small amount and spread it all over my face and
leave it on for five minutes. I then just scrub it off with upward strokes and
the result is skin that feels nourished and clean, polished with a subtle glow!
(I think FE really means it when it says that a particular product will add
glow to your skin.)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
I feel girls with normal to dry skins can also try this but may not
leave it on their skin as I do. </div>

<b>Dislike:-<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
It is a bit expensive like most other FE products. Although a jar does
last me about two months and for the results it gives, I would say it’s
absolutely worth it!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<b>Rating – 4.5/5<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<b>Price – Rs. 1175 <o:p></o:p></b><br />
<b>Available at - <a href="http://www.forestessentialsindia.com/">www.forestessentialsindia.com</a> and at Forest Essentials stores across the country</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<b>Recommendation</b> – A great
scrub for people who love all things organic and aren’t too keen on lapping
their skin up with products loaded with chemicals. I would recommend it
specially for working women who at times need that instant glow as it really
lifts up a tired and dull skin. For me it’s the third time I’ve bought it and
has really become the ultimate food for my skin!</div>
