The Balm Hot Mama blush review and swatches

January 27, 2015 Maya 8 Comments

Hi girls,Today I am reviewing one of my favorite blush by The Balm, Hot mama blush and eye shadow.
The product says “This pinky-peach  hue adds a splash of color to your cheeks and a hint of shimmer to your lids, while illuminating your finest features.”
My thoughts: 
The packaging of Hot Mama blush is so cute, it comes with a same cover as of the blush. I must say this such a nice product by The Balm and I am a die hard fan of this blush, its a peachy gold kind of color which is really pretty, and it has gold shimmer added in it, so it kind of glows on apples of the cheeks and gives a healthy shine to cheeks.The Balm Hot Mama blush is such a nice big sized blush, with a mirror, great value for money and it says it can be used as eye shadow and I applied it on eyes and it looks pretty good though I prefer it as a blush more.The longevity is also great,You apply it and you don't need to reapply before 6/7 hours. I have been using it insanely on every occasion I need to wear blush.I am so in love with this and cant find any fault with it.
Price and availability:
The hot mama blush is priced at 20$ and is available on all facebook pages selling International cosmetics in Pakistan.




 Thanks for reading ciao!

Wet n Wild

wet n wild pinkerbell lipstick review

January 22, 2015 Maya 9 Comments

Hi dolls,
Today I am writing about wet n wild lipstick shade in Pinkerbell.I think these mega last lipsticks are their most selling item, I love the shade range and these lippies sell like hot cakes on facebook pages in pakistan because we do not have wet n wild available in Pakistan.
First of all, the packaging looks kinda cute n simple but when I removed the plasic,I realized it has horrible packaging, its too fragile n it can break so so easily.
The lipstick itself is fantastic, you can apply it easily, its a semi-matte lipstick & its really smooth, stays on lips for almost 3.5/4 hours which is great.This pinkerbell shade is a pretty barbie pink kind of color and I like it a lot. I love these lipsticks so much and the only downside is the fragile packaging.Its a fantastic budget product for makeup lovers.I wish I can try more colors , infact many colors soon.I bought it for 450 rupees from makeup Therapy.It is charged around 450 to 550 rupees on different pages.I believe its priced at 2$ in US.



Thanks for reading ciao!

Makeup revolution London

Makeup revolution Amazing lipstick in dazzle review

January 19, 2015 Maya 4 Comments

Hey ladies,Today I have a small review on Makeup revolution London's Amazing lipstick in Dazzle. Makeup revolution has taken over the cosmetic industry rapidly,offering quality products at affordable prices, actually unbelievable prices.
MAKEUP REVOLUTION offers a huge range of lipsticks from nudes to pinks & corals to reds.
I chose this bright pink color from their lipstick range about a month ago and I find myself wearing it very often, its such a striking shade of pink which suits warm tone and enhances it.

This lipstick has very nice black packaging with a little lipstick in the transparent pot attached below the lipstick,I think its a great way to judge the color before opening it and you can use the lipstick as well.The good thing is that the cap holds in place firmly ,trust me I have come across terribly packaged lipsticks which make a mess in the bag.This lipstick has a really smooth buttery formula which glides smoothly on lips, softens the lips and staying power for me is 2 to 3 hours.I did not notice any unpleasant fragrance or taste in this lipstick which is great. Its a total thumbs up from me and I am going to try more colors from this range.


 I bought it from makeup therapy  for 275 rupees or makeup revolution is available online on just4girls.pk.
Thanks for reading ,ciao!

Sarah jessica parker lovely

Lovely Sarah Jessica Parker for women review

January 18, 2015 Maya 0 Comments

Hi dolls,
Today i am talking about Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker.I love her as Carrie Bradshaw and I had to pick up that lovely pink bottle sooner or later.
Lovely was introduced in the market in 2005.Lovely is a soft, powdery, discrete and very intimate fragrance, announced as 'silky white amber'. It possesses an elegance characteristic of classic fragrances. And yet the fragrance is quite modern and very charming.It opens with soft citruses (nectarine and bergamot) and woody (rosewood) notes, with a touch of lavender, which is very discrete and not at all sharp. The fragrance develops further with notes of apple martini, white daffodil and orchid. The base unites white amber, cedar, woody notes and white musk according to fragrance incyclopedia.
The opening of Lovely by SJP is quite floral, but never too sweet, it then dries down to a musky/woody smell which I adore for daily wear. The fresh spicy notes are lovely and spicy is more“fresh spicy.” I feel Lovely is a chic fragrance. It is simple with depth and longevity. SJP's Lovely is inoffensive, yet sophisticatedly feminine. It is a very popular fragrance because its really close to Narciso Rodriguez which is insanely popular and comes with a hefty price tag. Personally I think its an adorable soft skin scent but the lavender note is not my favorite, for me it ruins the perfume because I am not a fan of lavender at all. First there is this sharp lavender note,then it becomes more floral and has a heady musky quality that constantly surprises. I think this one is a classic, up there with the very best. I love the bottle of Lovely by SJP which is so lovely just like its name, longevity is also great,about 10 hours for me.The dry down stage is my favorite.I think Sarah wanted to make something really different,it is very different indeed from the celebrity mishmash of fruity cocktails, it has class and simplicity and it stands aloof from a million other celebrity fragrances.I think Lovely by SJP IS not for everybody, it reacts to one's body chemistry and changes its character which one can either love or hate. I think lOVELY Sarah Jessica Parker smells like silk ,at least to my nose.
Lovely is easily available in 100 ml packing throughout Pakistan on perfume counters and stores or I found the best price for it here for 2,999 rupees.Thanks for reading,ciao!

bad gal lash,

Benefit cosmetics Tan About Town review

January 16, 2015 Maya 0 Comments

Hello dolls, I was away for a while and its good to be back and writing a new post.
Today I am reviewing tan about town mini set by benefit.This set contains a mini bad gal lash mascara, a mini hoola bronzer and some kind a gorgeous foundation sample.





bronzer swatch






foundation blended
I think its a great offering by benefit to try their products before buying the full size.The bad gal mascara is really light & I didn't notice any flaking about it though its not waterproof.I think its a decent product.
The hoola bronzer is a popular bronzer and I like the color which is kind a universal color for a bronzer. Hoola bronzer has totally matte finish and blends well, staying power is about 4 hours, its velvety smooth in texture but the sample container is made of really cheap plastic ,still I am loving this bronzer, definitely need a full sized hoola.
The foundation did not get my fancy at first, it looked gel like & creamy but when applied on skin, it becomes really matte and staying power is great plus its very light. Some kind a gorgeous foundation in medium has a pale tone and it blends well with my complexion.Though it is for tanning effect, it is very close to my skin color and I quite like it.Sadly it got wasted during travelling and I got a little amount after cleaning its pan.
I really like this adorable set which costs 9 pounds, gonna try more.thanks for reading,ciao!
