If you have sensitive skin that tends to break out often or gets moody every time there is a change in the weather, you should give these 3 face washes are try! Each one of these is very gentle yet very effective on the skin! I thought these would only work on my winter combination skin but its spring now and they still work pretty great for my normal-oily/acne prone skin!

1. Vichy Purete Thermale Purifying Foaming Water Cleanser 

The water transforms to foam when pumped out, cleans the skin well without drying it and makes it soft and radiant. It is suitable for all skin types though I would prefer something stronger for the summers when my skin is terribly oily. But for the rest of the year, this one works excellently for me!

Rating : 4.5/5  Price : Rs 490 for 50 ml

2. Forest Essentials Kashmiri Saffron and Neem Delicate facial Cleanser

It is a gel based gentle cleanser with the most exotic, luxurious delicate scent. It lathers mildly, cleanses well and leaves the skin soft, smooth andglowing. It doesn’t dry out the skin and will work for most skin types except super-oily/acne prone skin which needs something stronger and medicated. My combination winter skin loves it! Highly recommended

From weekly favorites to monthly favorites, I’m now down to just Current favorites for this week. I had hoped to do a November Favorites post but I didn’t particularly love a lot of products in November and the ones I liked were the same ones I’d been using in October. But recently I’ve been trying some new and amazing makeup and skin care and here are my Top 10 ~

Current Top 10 Beauty Favorites!

1. Ben Nye Cream Blush Wheel (Rs 1050)

This is such an amazing blush palette! The blush has gorgeous shades especially for someone with my coloring. I absolutely LOVE the coral and warm pink shade in this, yet to try out the orange and red. I’m holding off the full review till I can do FOTDs with all the 6 shades(reviews with no FOTDs make  no sense to me)!

2. NYX Round lipstick Heredes ($4.00)

I got this one after reading its a dupe for MAC Mocha. Nudes don’t always work very well for me but this one is a stunning shade! Its a very understated coral – not too bright, not too dusty and has a sort of pale creamy look without actually being pale. I love this shade! I’ve worn it HERE.

3. Shiseido Perfect Refining Foundation (sample)

I have been on a lookout for a dewy foundation for the winters (for pictures more specifically) and the SA gave me this sample with another purchase. Its a beautiful foundation – gives the look of absolutely gorgeous skin with its slight dewiness and excellent coverage. I’m so picking up the full bottle on my next trip to the Shiseido counter! I’ve worn it HERE.

4. Colorbar Nail Lacquer Flirt (Rs 350)

Not the best formula to be honest (poor wear time) but I really like the shade. Nude nail paints always look classy and chic and this one is great with its peachy tone without being too brown.

Hey everyone!

Today I’m doing the eye makeup tutorial for the look I created inspired by the Forest Essentials commercial. The look is an intense black smokey eye with a bit of bronze. The look isn’t difficult to create, it uses only 3 eye shadows and very few steps. The only issue here to is to control the black so that it doesn’t get too messy!

Hope you like the tutorial, don’t forget to leave your comments below!
