Palmer's Olive oil Formula with vitamin E spray


Frizz is a big problem when living in hot and humid climate such as ours.Hair needs a lot of moisture and conditioning in order for it to look even remotely presentable (at least mine does). I got "Palmer's Olive oil conditioning spray" in the hopes of finding something that would do the job without weighing the hair down.

Vaseline Sheer Infusion Body Lotion


Vaseline is a brand that is very readily available in Karachi (as well as the rest of Pakistan). Vaseline petroleum jelly is a house hold necessity in my opinion.The brand has quite an extensive body lotion range as well.Every time i go to the mall i see a new one.This one i got a few weeks back to combat the dryness of the weather.

Artdeco Soft Eyeliner in 10 Black

A good kohl liner is a necessary part of anyone's make up arsenal , whether its summer or winter. I have tried a bunch of eyeliners over the years , from various brands but there is always something to gripe about. This time around i was in a hurry and wanted something without the added wait that comes with pre ordering stuff through facebook or asking a friend to get it for me from abroad.So i went on just4girls.pk and had a look.They are stocking some really nice products and its always fun to browse around.But i had to decide on something that was good , affordable and available for instant delivery.So after alot of research i decided on "Artdeco Soft Eyeliner in Black".

Hair buns.....How to?

Making a hair bun is an easy and elegant way of getting out of the usual hair style rut that one gets into with the same hair style daily.Also it is the best solution to a bad hair day.You can make one simply by twisting your hair and wounding it around in a doughnut shape and securing with hair pins.The issue with going this route is that if you have long / heavy hair , the hair style wont hold for too long.So here are two ways that help me keep my hair bun in mint condition the whole day :-)

MUA Makeup Academy Mosaic Bronzer "natural Glow"

Believe it or not but this is the first bronzer i have owned  .Previously i either did not contour or used a blush or an eye shade to get the job done.But since i have seen a lot of fellow bloggers doing such a great job with contouring, i thought i should take it a bit more seriously  ;-)

Clean and Clear Fruit Essentials Facial Cleanser

Facial cleansers are a dime a dozen in the market these days.Hardly anyone i know uses soap to wash their face.Clean and Clear has been the go to brand when it comes to my family , in terms of cleansers.I usually buy myself the original one and i am pretty satisfied with it so i have not tried anything new in a while.Why mess with a good thing ....Right? But i have read a few reviews from fellow bloggers on these cleansers by Clean & Clear and the pink color looked so tempting on the shelf while browsing the cosmetics floor at Naheed , that i couldn't stop myself from buying it;)

Glysolid Glycerine Body cream

I had been on the look out for a good body cream for the last few months or so.And tried multiple products. Each time i went to my local cosmetic counter , the owner kept trying to get me to buy this product.So finally, after trying a bunch of creams and body butters (with no great success i might add) , i bought this.I have been using it for the last two months and here is what i think :-)

Outfit of the day

Karachi's weather is doing its "thing" again ;) Running from hot to cold to hot .I guess this time of the year is hardest on the fashion industry as they have no idea what to pitch to the clients.Shawls , tights........... Oh wait! people are sweating buckets outside.The latest lawn collection .....but the weather just turned cold enough to warrant wearing a sweater (lolz).This outfit today, in my opinion can be worn with relative ease in this time of uncertainty for our fair city's weather :)

Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream

I am a big fan of tinted moisturizers and bb creams.The idea of not having to wear a full coverage foundation on a daily basis is really appealing to me.I just feel that for people who don't want to wear a full face of makeup every day , bb creams are a God send.
