Pink is the name of the game :-)

Summer is the time for new beginnings , of balmy weather and soft hues.Karachi (the love of my life) sort of over compensates for the weather every year and sometimes "balmy" gets down right unpleasant.Not many colors can pull of cool and calm , when the weather is anything but.Unless its a shade of pink.Here we share a few pinks from our humble collection , which we are totally in love with :-)

L'Oreal Color Riche Lipstick in "845 TAWNY"

My favorite make up look is always a dark eye and nude lips so i am always on the look out for good nude lipsticks.L'oreal and Revlon are my go to brands when it comes to nude colors.The "color Riche " line by L'oreal is really great.Not only are the lipsticks affordable,creamy,soft but they also bear well with the weather in Karachi,travel and general abuses of regular usage
I recently purchased this color.Its called "Tawny", no.845At first glance it appears to be a brownish nude color but when you swatch it, the color is much less pigmented and is sort of a light pinkish brown.Either way i really like to wear it on a daily basis.It doesn't wash out my lips (which can happen with some nude colors). It can also be worn over or under other colors for a more pigmented look.
If you are going to buy this from a Mall ,L'oreal counter or another such place than you might have to pay 600 to 800 Rs (just a guess,as i haven't confirmed).I got this from a local cosmetic counter,the shop owner had about 10-12 colors and was selling them for 450/piece.I got it for Rs 400.

NYX JUMBO EYE PENCIL in 604 "MILK"


This is one of those products that is a "must have" in any make up kit.I have been trying to get my hands on this since the first time i read about jumbo eye pencils.Even though these only cost about 4.50$ a piece on the nyx website and many other online sites have them on sale, they still cost anywhere from 600 - 800 Rs if you buy them in Pakistan.My reasoning behind getting this particular color was that i wanted to get the most versatile one of the lot.These pencils are available in a multitude of colors but in my mind the ones that everyone should own are "milk" and "black bean.
