Oriflame The One Colour Unlimited Lipstick Review And Swatches

$

Happy New Year my beauties! I received some seasons greetings from Oriflame sometime back and I absolutely love the little gift they sent across. The One unlimited lipsticks from Oriflame have bowled me over completely. Here's my review of these lipsticks and some reasons as to why you should own more than one colour from The One range in your makeup box :)



The One colour unlimited lipsticks are butter lip sticks that not only stain the lips with rich colour but will moisturize it at the same time. It is a light weight texture lipstick with a blend of oils.

#1 Violet Extreme: My go to winter shade. Compliments the Indian skin tone to the T.



#2 Pink Unlimited: I love this pink colour on my skin. Compliments any outfit at any time



#3 Absolute Blush: This is a gorgeous shade for a lighter skin tone more than a medium tone. 



#4 Mocha Intensity: For earthy tone loves and rustic shade hoarders, this may just be the right shade.



What Works: With a super sleek packaging, these lipsticks are perfect for daily use. These lipsticks will keep your lips moisturized for long hours even in this chilling cold weather. I don't find my lips getting dried at all. Infact, I feel it hydrates the lip with a hint of a colour, rich colour in this case. As far as staying power is concerned, even after few cups of coffee consumption, I didn't need to re-touch the lips! As soon as you apply the lipstick it feels really buttery on the lips and then after sometime it gives you a perfect look of a matte lipstick. (The creaminess remains intact though). You have to apply at least two coats to get rich colour. The pricing is nicely done too and I absolutely think that these lipsticks are worth the investment. There are a total of 8 shades to choose from. I haven't used Orilflame lipsticks in the past but with The One range, they have earned a loyalist in me! 

What Doesn't Work: The lipstick covers don't have shade names mentioned on it thus making it a little task top open the cover and look up on the shade. Also a colour code is absent that makes it little tough to imagine the true shade colour.

5 Benefits of Facial Oils For Indian Skin You Need To Know

Facial oils are aimed to repair the facial skin and despite of so many benefits they have, women are always apprehensive to apply these oils. What may sound and feel like an 'oil' may actually be good for your oily skin, or an acne prone skin! In fact if you have dry skin and find that your moisturizer may not be doing the job for you, then mixing a little plant oil may just be the thing your skin needs. 

Clarins Face Oil
If you are new to the concept of facial oils, then these points may help you to solve your confusions-

1. Even though you apply moisturizer daily, you need to boost your skin with facial oils so that your skin gets hydrated for longest. 
2. Facial oils are incredibly effective at treating a wide range of skin conditions like hyper pigmentation, acne and stretch marks as well. 
3. For oily skin, it helps regulate your natural oil production as it is packed with antioxidants, which are also considered very allergy-resistant.
4. Oils are absorbed quickly, and soften the appearance of fine lines
5. Facial oils are great for skin layering and leads to perfect skin-repairing if applied regularly. 

The Bottom Line: Think of face oils as supporting players rather than the centerpiece of a skin-care routine. You need to add this to your skin care regime to achieve the above listed benefits! So there isn't one best way to apply a face oil on daily basis. You can use these with any serum, or moisturizers. However, avoid sing these with your sunscreen as it can dilute the SPF's effectiveness.

On days when I want to stick to a classic outfit, I wrap a Cashmere stole. But hey, it just doesn't end there. A classic winter look has cashmere & leather subtly seeded together. While I chose to wear a black leggings and denim shirt with a boyfriend blazer, I complimented the look with tan colored, leather shoes. Sometimes an accessory, a winning accessory is needed to get you looking your best every day! I adore Hidesign bags that keep its focus on a classic contemporary look. Hidesign as a brand caters to the savvy and sophisticated urban professionals and all of their bags can be teamed up with the basics. I love how all the bags are crafted using the finest leathers, many of which are purely vegetable-tanned using natural seeds and barks. Each bag aids individuality and did I tell you what a great investment it is?! This season, create your own limited edition look with Hidesign bags and don't forget to add some heirloom cashmere to your ensemble.

Kama Ayurveda Hand Lotion, Hand Cleanser & Lip Balm Review

I have always been pro home beauty treatments but being an alpha woman I am always running against time but hey, that still doesn't mean that I will settle for anything mediocre for my skin care. I am absolutely loving the new brand that I am trying these days, Kama Ayurveda. Read my review to know why you should own products from Kama in your beauty box.




Kama Ayurveda rose jasmine hand lotion is the best way to pamper your hands with those easily available, natural and inexpensive kitchen options. I have been using the hand lotion for about a week now, and I am loving how it is improving my skin's texture. Formulated with aloe vera juice, tea tree, rosemary and basil oil this lotion hydrates the skin. And yes, thanks to jasmine & rose, my hands smell beautifully! 
Price: INR 895

Kama Ayurveda rose jasmine hand cleanser is a rich lathering cleanser. It is blended with oils of rose and jasmine and is good for frequent hand wash. Because it's a cleanser, it lathers well and creates enough foam. It leaves my skin soft and has a mild floral fragrance! The reason why I prefer it to all the other hand cleansers is because it's organic, has soothing, anti-bacterial properties and is packed in a beautiful bottle! :)
Price: INR 895

Kama Ayurveda Vanilla Lip Balm, before I share my review here, I have to admit that Vanilla is my favorite flavour. I love this super rich moisturizing lip balm which is made from organic bees wax. It also contains cocoa butter that provides you with enough nourishment! I use it before applying any lipstick, and I love how soft and hydrated it keeps my lips all through the day! A winter must have :)
Price: INR 395

Highlights: Two things that have bowled me over are the ingredients of each product and it's packaging! Kama offers 100% natural treatments and use plant based ingredients with no artificial colors or artificial fragrance. That's also the reason why I am ready to shell to additional money for lotions and cleansers. And packaging, well it is so right that it instills the feeling of luxe ayurveda, a perfect option for gifting ;) 

I can't wait to try and review more products from Kama Ayurveda already! Have you guys used any products from their range? Do share your experience in the comment box below.

Essence of Beauty + GIVEAWAY

Do you feel you have imperfections and flaws? Good. That means you've accepted yourself for who you are in your life! As #GuiltybytesTurns3 I have second post from the series that I have been meaning to do since forever. As I complete 3 years of blogging, I have been able to redefine the true meaning of beauty that I can't wait to share in today's post :)



We are young and we keep changing our minds and even sometimes our hearts about "beauty" and it's parameters. I was never a makeup hoarder, being an Army kid, I have been brought up like boys (you know all Army parents have an obsession of making their kids so-not-delicate), It was in my blogging journey that I discovered makeup & beauty products, the art of makeup and fascinating over lots of MAKEUP. While Initially I tried to hide acne marks and look "more" pretty according to my self made beauty standards, three years down the line, I know that it is important to always be yourself no matter what because you don't want people to remember you for something you're not! I realized that mistakes makes you who you are...you learn and grow with each choice you make! Everything is worth it and we have got to say how we feel - always. I now know that beauty is about being you, and being okay with it. Use makeup to feel extra confident and not just confident. 

I'm not a perfect girl, my hair won't stay straight always and sometimes I am really clumsy and yes I too lack all that, well, perfectness. But then, I take a step back and remember how amazing my life truly is, and just maybe - I like being imperfect. So here's my take on beauty- In a world of comparison and conformity, I want to make my own statement. I want to share all of my vulnerabilities, tears, doubts, and insecurities; but at the end let others experience the real me! 

As I continue with the blogoversary party, I want one of you to win this amazing hamper worth Rs. 5000, from The Body Shop India, which by the way is my favorite skincare brand. This beautiful hamper contains products from their intensely moisturizing Wild Argan Oil Range!

The precious Argan nuts are sourced from the remote Atlas Mountains of Morocco. They are hand-picked, hand-cracked and slowly pressed for the purest, most radiant Community Fair Trade Argan oil. To win this hamper, you need to share what does beauty mean to you? Share your answer with the hashtag #GuiltyBytesTurns3 in the comment box below & the best answer will win this hamper :)


Contest will end on 16th Feb 2015
