WET N WILD SILKY FINISH LIPSTICK REVIEW


Hello Everyone!
Today, I am reviewing a lovely product from Wet N Wild. This is a brand which is not available in India. My aunt lives in U.S.A and she sent me this lipstick but don't worry! if you want to buy these lipsticks you can order it online as there are many international online business websites which sell beauty products from brands which are not available in India. So coming to my review the shade which I got is 522A RED WINE. This is a lovely shade in wine color which really suits me.
Wet N Wild Lipstick 522A Red Wine

Price :- $1

Packaging :- Packaging is quite simple. It is a light silver colored twist-up tube with a transparent screw cap. I personally don't like the packaging but at this price? I would not complain. 

Product Description :- Enriched with conditioning ingredients of vitamin A & E and Aloevera for moist-looking lips.

Shades Available :- There are 22 shades in this range.

Likes :-
- Very affordable 
- Pigmentation is amazing, one swipe is enough
- Variety of shades available
- Easy to apply
- Staying power is nice according to the price
- Can be carried around easily
- No shimmer
- Contains vitamin A & E and Aloevera

Dislikes :-
- Not available in India
- Not enough moisturizing
- Contains parabens
- Packaging is very mediocre



                                                        OVERALL VERDICT
This product is very affordable and has very nice smooth texture. It was a little bit drying for me as I have dry lips so it is important for me to apply lip balm before applying lipsticks. I really liked the pigmentation as in one swipe it gives very fine coverage to lips and it stays for 2-3 hours easily and doesn't settles into fine lines. It is a really nice product in $1.But what I don't like that it's packaging is very mediocre and it gets transferred on the cap very easily so I have to be really careful while handling the stick. Otherwise it is a lovely product from Wet N Wild.

RECOMMENDATION :- Yes, I will definitely recommend it.

Will I repurchase it? :- Yes, I really want to try other shades from this range.

RATING :- 4.8/5

So, this was my review on lipstick from Wet N Wild Silky Finish Range , for more upcoming reviews STAY CONNECTED.

HOW TO CURE CUTS NATURALLY


Hello Everyone!
Today I am posting about how to naturally cure cuts. Cuts are one thing which we usually face in our day to day life, I don't even remember how many cuts I have got while cutting things or chopping vegetables and it really stings when a very sharp knife slits your finger or hand resulting into bleeding and stinging and you are not even able to stop it immediately but listen my friends you can stop it immediately by applying some things which are easily available in your home and kitchen. So here are some natural cures for healing cuts :-
                   
                       

i) Honey :- Honey has been used for since 5000 years for it's healing and anti-bacterial properties. Whenever you have a cut just put honey straight on it. Honey is also really useful in burns, ulcers etc. Don't doubt about it because honey is also widely used in many types of medicinal creams for curing wounds.


ii) Turmeric :- Turmeric is widely known for it's anti-sceptic and healing properties and in Ayurveda it is being used since ages and have cured many types of diseases both internally and externally. Whenever I am in kitchen and I keep getting cuts so turmeric is a really useful thing for me because instantly within minutes absorbs all the sensation and stinging and also stops bleeding immediately.
                                                               
                                                            

iii) Garlic :- It may confuse you but yes my friends garlic is really useful in curing minor cuts and whenever you have a small cut or so just crack a garlic and pur it's juice on the affected are but remember one thing apply it on minor cuts.

                                    

iv) Aloe-vera :- Aloe-vera is also a really popular plant worldwide for it's healing and medicinal properties.
It is really effective in curing cuts, wounds and burns. Just open up the leaf of an aloe-vera plant and scoop out the transparent gel from the leaf and apply it on the effective part it instantly gives relief on the affected part. It also helps in moisturizing the skin and heals the cut faster.


v) Alum :- Alum (phitkiri) is also useful for stopping blood coming out from cuts. In earlier times when men used to shave they use alum for stopping the blood if the had any cut due to razor and it has anti-bacterial properties too. Whenever you have a cut just rub a piece of alum on it and bleeding will stop immediately.

SOME IMPORTANT TIPS :-
- Whenever you have a cut immediately wash the cut with clean water as it will stop foreign bodies from entering your blood vessels.
- Avoid touching or doing anything to the cut as it will irritate the skin and may cause in more pain.
- Be sure to keep the cut clean, covered and moisturized as moisturizing will not lead to itching so that you will not have ugly scars on the particular area.
- If cuts are very large and bleeding doesn't stops please consult a doctor as soon as possible.

GATSBY SUPER HARD SET & KEEP HAIR SPRAY REVIEW


Hello everyone!
Today I am going to review a hair spray from Gatsby. Gatsby is a company of hair sprays,gels and hair creams it has hair products for both men and women.I was looking for a good hair spray so that when styling my hair I could set my curls although I use streax hairspray but it was not available at that time and my eyes fell on this and I thought to give it a try. It comes in three variants :- Normal Hold, Super hold and Extreme Hold, I purchased the Super Hold one ,so here isit's review:-


Gatsby Super Hard Hair Spray
Price :- Rs. 140 for 250 ml

What the company claims:- Strong setting power for a firm style.
- Fine mist evenly coats hair for a stylish and long lasting hairstyle.
- Without visible residue.
- With shine effect.
- Non sticky.
- Helps to rotect hair from UV rays.
- Natural and refreshing citrus scent.


How to use :- Shake the can well before use. Hold the can upright & spray at a distance of 15 to 25 cm from hair. Do not brush or comb once the hair is set or dried.

Ingredients :- SD ALCOHOL, 40-B, BUTANE, PROPANE, AMP-ACRYLATES COPOLYMER, FRAGRANCE(PARFUM), PPG-34, STEARAMIDOETHYL DIETHYLAMINE.

Gatsby Super Hard Hair Spray

Packaging :- I quite liked the packaging ,it is a silver colored spray bottle with a black screw cap and let me tell you people one thing that the bottle is really crack resistant and the spray is also very nice as it takes out the adequate amount of liquid anyways the main thing which I don't liked about it's packaging is that it is not a transparent bottle as you can't see how much product is left inside otherwise I have no complaints with the packaging.

Likes:-
- Very affordable and cheap compared to other hair sprays
- Gives super hard hold
- Has a nice citrusy fragrance which doesn't irritates my nose :P
- Gives a nice shine to hair 
- Doesn't leaves any kind of residue on hair.

Dislikes:-
- Contains parabens
- It does not coats evenly each and every strand of hair
- Really coarse in texture it makes hair really rough.

                                                          OVERALL VERDICT
It is a nice product from Gatsby as it does it's job nicely in holding my curls but hey! if after spraying it on my hair my hair becomes so hard that I have to wash my hair to comb properly and one plus point of this spray is that it is unisex as anyone can apply it on for setting the hair. It has a nice fragrance it also gives shine to the hair but it only coats the outer layer of hair and does not coat each and every strand.

RECOMMENDATION:- Yes, I will totally recommend it to you people to give it a try as it is a nice product from Gatsby.

WILL I REPURCHASE IT ? No, because I want to try other hair sprays from Matrix and Tresemme so I am not going to purchase it again. And one more reason is that it does not coats my hair evenly.

RATING :- 3/5.

Fairness tips for oily skin :-
- Wash as much you can wash your face during day use salted water for washing the face as the salt in the water will absorb the oil in the skin and will make it fair too.
- Egg white mask is really good for oily skin, it is a good fairness mask for oily skin it tightens the pores too and you will see a nice glow on your face. Egg white mask is really beneficial in treating fine lines and wrinkles.
- Add fresh cream into gram flour (besan) with a pinch of turmeric and see the results it significantly increases one's complexion.
- Mix equal amounts of lemon and cucumber juices keep it for 20-25 minutes and wash it off do it regularly.
- Mix honey and lemon juice and apply it on face let it sit for 15 minutes and then wash it off you will see the difference immediately but if it starts drying out your skin much than discontinue using it.
- One more remedy is to apply Fuller's earth( multani mitti) it significantly reduces the oil content of skin and makes it fair and it is reliable because in India it is used by women as a fairness agent since ages and if your skin get very dried by using it just mix a little bit of milk or cream in it your skin will not get dried much but will also look fair and glowing.


Fairness tips for dry skin :-
- Apply a mixture of honey and cucumber juice keep it for 15-20 minutes and then wash it off.
- Cut a few cubes of papaya and grind it into a paste and than apply it on your face it is the best natural mask ever. Papaya reduces the signs of aging , eliminates dead skin cells and adds glow to skin while making it fair.
- Mix curd,grated cucumber,honey and milk powder and apply it on face fo 15 minutes it naturally makes you skin fair and is all in one natural facial too. 
- Mix some turmeric in fresh cream or milk and use curcuma aromatica ( kasturi manjal) which is also known as raw turmeric it doesn't makes your skin yellow and increases skin fairness naturally reduces black spots and acne.
- Apply grated raw potato mask on your skin it significantly reduces tan.


Fairness tips for sensitive skin:_
- Milk is a really good alternative for people with sensitive skin just apply raw milk on your face and then let it sit for 10 minutes or till it is dried.

Some important tips:- 

- Drink lots of water, it helps in removing toxins fom body
- Always remove your makeup before going to sleep no matter how much tired you are because of makeup on the skin is not able to repair itsel.
- Always apply good quality of sunblock before stepping out of home as it will protect you again harmful rays of sun but remember apply sunblock instead of sunscreen as sunblock protects you from UVA and UVB rays and getting tan while sunscreen only protects you from UVa and UVB rays leaving a hint of tan on your face.
- Don't be stressed, stress leads to increased aging process leading to fine lines and wrinkles so stay away from stress and be happy. :)

NATURAL REMEDIES FOR TREATING ACNE


Many natural things are really effective in treating acne and I myself suffered from it alot in my adolescence  I moved towards chemical creams but it didn't helped me much. SO I started using natural home remedies for my acne problem and now I have a really clear skin.So here are some natural remedies for treating acne :-


i) Lemon juice :- If you have oily Skin Lemon juice can do wonders for you as it is a natural astringent but dry skin people should be away from this as it it will make their skin more dry. Lemon juice is a natural remedy for removing excess oil from face and will help in reducing acne.
                                                                         


ii) Green Tea :- It is extremely effective in healing and reducing acne. Green tea naturally detoxifies the body and emoves impurities from it drinking it and applying ice cubes of it is really effective in treating acne as well as increasing metabolism rate.

                                                 
 iii) Neem (Margosa) :- Neem is extremely effective in treating acne as it totally decreases the size of pimple eventually leading to a very clear skin it also helps in treating chicken pox marks I use Himalaya Neem Pack you can use any other brand too and dry skin people should not use neem as it will make their skin more dry.

iv) Remove excess oil, dirt and free radicals from your skin :- People with acne should exfoliate their skin weekly so that skin remains clean and free of whiteheads and blackheads but emember don't over exfoliate your face otherwise it will lead to more acne just gently clean it with a gentle and mild cleanse and after that apply gentle scrub and then neem pack it will really help you in getting glowing skin.

v) Baking Soda :- Baking soda is commonly found in many toothpastes, creams as it has cleansing properties. Mix equal parts of baking soda and water to form a paste. Apply the paste on acne individually. Not over the entire face.
- Leave the baking soda paste on you face for about 10 minutes or until dry.
- Wash face with cold water as it close the pores.
- repeat two times a day if you feel a little bit irritation or so or your skin becomes too oily discontinue using it.

OLAY NATURAL WHITE 3 IN 1 FAIRNESS SERUM


Hello Everyone!

Today I am going to review olay natural white 3in1 fairness serum. I have used other variants of olay natural white and have quite liked it except the greasiness because I have oily skin. this one is the latest variant of the olay natural white series as they claim that it contains natural ingredients but I don't know because there is no mention of ingredients neither on their outer cardboard pack no on their serum tube. When I saw these on the shelf of the store I thought to give it a buy.I purchase the smallest pack available as I just wanted to give it a try so here it is :-
Olay Natural White 3in1 Fairness Serum
Olay Natural White 3in1 Fairness Serum

What The Company Claims :-


                                               What olay claims about 3in1 natural serum

Price :- Rs. 49 fo 20g (there were bigger sizes too)

Likes :-
- It is very affordable
- Non-greasy, it doesn't makes the face look oily
-Consistency is thick so it can be applied in winters too but depends on the dryness of skin
-It blends very easily and gets absorbed quickly.
-No fuss in applying it
-If used for a long time regularly it slightly increases brightness of the skin.
-contains ingredients like saffron,turmeric and rose.

Dislikes-
-Total ingredients are not mentioned on the pack as always
-It will not make your skin fairer it is only going to make your skin bright and nothing else
-can be bit drying for dry skin people
Olay Natural White 3in1 Fairness serum
-UV protection is mentioned but no SPF content is mentioned
-Didn't liked it's smell, it has a smell like shampoos which is really irritating for me
                                               
Consistency Is Thick
After applying Olay Natural White 3in1 Fairness Serum

                                                        OVERALL VERDICT
At a very generous price they have a great product though I didn't liked it's smell but I can't say that  everyone will dislike it as my mother found it's smell quite pleasant so I can't be sure about everyone regarding the smell.the company claims that it is a fairness serum but it is more like a thick cream anyways it is definitely one of the cheapest and relating to it's price is a good product of Olay and the tube is super handy and you can put it anywhere. It is thick in consistency but when applied on face it glides very smoothly and gets totally absorbed. So from the view of price this is a wonderful product and everyone must give it a try.
