St.Ives Skin Renewing body lotion & Giveaway winner announcment!!!

In Karachi we are sort of one dimensional in terms of weather most of the year.Its hot and humid with some breaks for a few rainy days here & there.So when it is the time for the esteemed two , three months of winter (our skin is not really sure of what to do about it). I hate dry , flaky , powdery skin in all circumstances, yet that is exactly what happens as soon as there is even the slightest nip in the air.

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.

NOTD Color studio pro nail polish in "electrique"

I have found my favorite blue for this season :) Thanks to color studio professionals.Its bright ,its shimmery and its all you need to brighten up your manicure.I got this from the color studio kiosk @ Dolmen Mall Tariq Road.They have added some beautiful new colors to their collection since the last time i was there.I paid Rs 250 for this.Worth every penny in my opinion.The polish is just the right consistency ,the brush is not bad either.But as this is a bright color i would warn you not to use it without a base coat or there is a good chance that you'll end up with yellow nails.
The girl at the counter told me that they are having a promotion that if you buy 3 nail polishes than you'll get a lip gloss for free.And the lip glosses from color studio cost around Rs 300+ (if i am  not mistaken). I am not sure if this offer is exclusive to Dolmen Mall Tariq Road or applicable every where.So if anyone is interested :)

We are back

Hello everyone :)
We are back. FINALLY!! Sorry for the long delay. But with ramzan, Eid and my brother's wedding, time sort of got away from us. So lots to talk about:)
We have been trying lots of new stuff and cant wait to share all of the experiences we've had in the last two months or so.
Where to begin...
Quetta is always lots of fun.Home town , relatives ,old friends.What's not to like?But i must say , Ramzan in Quetta is a dull afair.The markets close early in Ramzan (have you heard of a bigger atrocity).No chand raat fun like Karachi (as our village is too far from the city and the law n order situation is sort of precarious right now).But Eid was great. Got to meet a lot of family members we hadn't seen in a year.Hung out with cousins.(Talked make up & clothes all night)

                                       Lots of flowers in our garden this year from all the rain fall.
