MAC Huggable Lipcolour in Out for Passion review

MAC recently launched the Huggable Lipcolor range. I was on a vacation when this collection was launched and so did not have much choice to pick up shades, but fortunately, I found a beautiful shade which was still not sold out. This collection was released in India on the 12^th February.

MAC Says –

A new high-shine formula featuring an array of creamy emollients, providing a lasting, glossy finish that leaves lips smooth and sculpted. A unique gel base allows each shade to smooth effortlessly onto the skin, with a feather-light finish giving immediate moisture, lasting up to six hours.

There were 12 shades that were released as a part of this collection –

Commotion: Deep cool plum cream

Red Necessity: Deep warm wine cream

What A Feeling!: Mid-tone cool pink cream

Feeling Amourous?: Mid-tone fuchsia cream

Love Beam: Mid-tone warm pink cream

Out For Passion: Soft warm rose cream

Touche: Light beige cream

Fresh & Frisky: Soft neutral peach cream

Cherry Glaze: Orange red cream

Fashion Force: Cool coral cream

Rich Maroon: Mid-tone chestnut cream

Price – Rs. 1800

I bought the shade ‘Out For Passion’, which is a nice muted rose shade. It’s a very every day, hassle free color. Something that you can wear with any look and any occasion. The pigment is sheer and doesn’t build up a lot. The good thing is that it wear-off really well. It leaves a slight stain behind which looks really natural.

The formula is very similar to Revlon Lip butters, but a little better. It is really easy to apply and doesn’t feel sticky. It’s really moisturizing. I really like this for an everyday wear, especially for work, when I’m sitting in air conditioning the entire day and my skin and lips start to feel dry and dehydrated.

MAC claims this formula lasts for “up to 6 hours.” I felt that it did not last for more than 3-4 hrs without eating. I have to reapply every time I eat or drink something.

The packaging is really chic! It comes in a steel grey metal tube.

Overall, I know that I will get a lot of use out of this bullet and if it is relaunched I will pick up as many colors as I can J. I would give it a 4.5/5.

Kerastase Elixir Ultime Oleo Complexe Review

I’m someone who gets drawn towards good hair products, especially once who help with frizzy hair. I have really frizzy hair, sometimes it appears more like wild dry bush on my head and so I have to do a lot to make it a little manageable and decent. I’m sure there are other girls who would feel that hair also have mood swings, mine has major mood swings. Sometimes I don’t have to do anything and other days I have to use a combination of products. My recent discovery that has done wonders to my hair is an oil, an oil that I use after wash, the ‘Kerastase Elixir Ultime Oleo Complexe’.

The elixir brings shine, nourishment and deep conditioning to the hair while smoothing the hair fiber, resulting in incredible shine. The multi-use elixir also helps restore strength to the hair and protects it from external aggressors.

Diwali Celebration at work!!

Diwali generally comes with a lot of celebrations and one common thing that happens across all organizations is ethnic day. All the girls specially come in their festive best. You can see sarees from all regions and will know exactly what is in fashion.

This time I wore a Coimbatore silk saree. I bought this during our trip to Coimbatore. Coimbatore is known from their textiles, especially weaves. The weavers in the city of Coimbatore are known for their fabulous and fantastic dyeing and weaving capabilities.

 

I wore a black, grey, red and gold combination saree. I know there are a lot of colors but the way all these colors have come together it makes the saree look really elegant and unique.

I paired it with a string of black pearls. If you are living at Hyderabad you will have best of pearls

I would like to wish all of you a very Happy and a Prosperous Diwali!!
