lakme absolute gel stylish


They say either your mind is totally dead at this hour of the day or you are as fresh as you could be ... well  talking of me im as fresh and as blank as i could be i am still trying to wonder what am i looking at. 
Enough of tv .. movies ... reading (not in a mood too) . I cant still call as a day of for me ..
Ummmm   well i call my self- fenced by boredom. Its no one but me im bored of. 

So I found a way to overcome the bored “me” by writing by blog today after I ages  , and every time when I write my blog I so want to be regular with it but I guess my laziness wins over it.

 Shuffling between the channels i just happen to see that add of Kareena Kapoor with the nail paint advertisement  - lakme absolute gel stylish, (speaking of which doesn't the  whole set up  of the adv remind you  of the se gossip girl series : Blair Waldorf's  sleep over parties with the dress up maid dorota   .. isnnt it so .. the whole set up like that )



Coming back to the nail polish- lakme absolute gel stylish (Rs.400/15 ml)
I happen to pick it up as soon as I saw the advertisement on tv. The nail polish bottle and the colours were just so tempting.

The look is lustrous , the brush is remarkable - easy to apply, over all packaging is good , well talking about the price a bit higher , and yes If you are aiming for a quick dry then you for sure are at wrong place. baiscally you have to make sure you have nothing coming your way for atleast about 20 mind unless you don’t mind any prints with your nail polish  :P

FEET : Don't ignore me :(


From Bellies to sandals, Shoes to Slippers, from Socks to Bare feet, From Snow to Sun.. Its summer time.Your happy feet become the unhappy ones and this is the time when your feet need the extreme care. During winters feet are covered with socks and are in its dirt-free zone where one is not really fretful about the how their feet looks. When summer`s arrive and your feet is exposed to heat, dirt, dust is when one needs to be very careful about their feet.


I still remember krack cream add( Shakal se Rani ...aur pairon se.....naukrani )which talked about the cracked heels and how unpleasant your feet look if not taken care of and if not being moisturized. Almost every women complains about their feet feels if not embarrassed bt not to great about them.
Well I’m just going to discuss on how we can make them look neat and presentable in a five mins.


Here are some of the tips to for happy healthy and smiling feet.   
                                                 
BODY SHOP - NO MORE ROUGH STUFF PUMICE  
  • Use a soft pumic stone. Do not use a hard pumic stone ,  it adds in the cracks rather than     healing it. A soft foot scrub to be used. Body shop pumic stone is very soft and does not cause any rash to the skin.
                                
BODY SHOP - PEPPERMINT SOOTHING FOOT SCRUB
  • Scrub your feet atleast once a week A lil scrub will help to take away the dirt and dead skin.
          Intensely exfoliating volcanic rock granules help to slough away rough patches of hardened skin, to leave feet femininely soft, smooth and freshly fragrant. Perfectly prepared for those strappy summer sandals.    
  •  Pat feet dry before slipping into shoes.
  • Apply foot cream /lotion few mins before wearing shoes and also  avoid applying it between the toes to avoid any fungal infection.
                                 
                 BODY SHOP - HEMP FOOT PROTECTOR
  • This heavy-duty foot cream works wonders on very dry skin. It soothes and rehydrates skin and conditions nails Massage a small amount into feet as often as required. For intensive action, apply at bedtime: slip on a pair of Moisturizing Socks and leave to work overnight  Helps to restore skin’s moisture barrier and conditions nails as well. 
  • Cut and file nails regularly. Do not cut them too short.
  •  Apply nail polish when going out. This will make your feet look pretty and neat.
  •  Lets our nail breathe . Do not always wear nail paint .

  • If you are aiming for the retro look the nude shades are a big no no. Shades like Blood Red or Dark Burgundy or a Hot Pink would just
  • Eye liner softly swept out in an Arch 
  • I can't think of the retro look without the Big shades.
  • Paint your nails with dark colors
  • The look has to be loud but no bling ... but if u want to you can add a lil bling u can add to it while adding some accessories to it.

monsoon time .... :) :) :)




Talking about monsoons , most of us enjoy the rains .. and would not mind getting lil wet in rain. Atleast i have  always  loved the idea of rain ... and don't mind some rain drops falling on my face ,  but for sure keeping in mind what i am wearing  (the make up i mean ) :P 

Due to humidity /chip chip , makeup is best avoided these days.  Here are some Do`s n Don`t s for the rainy season
Do`s and Dont

CTM 
Must use toner in this monsoon . helps in the humid weather. I would recommend clinique whole CTM set for the same . you can pick up as per your skin tone 


Wear Sunscreen  
Do not get deceived by the clouds as the sun can wreak havoc even in between the rains. One should use sunscreen even on cloudy days to prevent allergies caused by ultraviolet

Use powder foundation 
One should avoid using foundation. If it is not avoidable, make sure it is water proof. Otherwise, use a talcum powder.

Eye liners
Liquid eye liners and mascaras should be avoided as they may smudge if you get wet and enter your eyes. Instead use a pencil liner or waterproof mascara. 


Manicure /Pedicure 
One should also avoid manicure and pedicure that involves pushing cuticles inside as they are an easy access to bacteria during monsoons.

Lipstick 
Avoid using glossy shades, Use neutral/ Matt shades .
MAC AB0 Matte chili  is very apt for the monsoon, makes your your face looks bright.

gup-shup .. all night long


Its saturday night  .. hot outside ... What are your plans ... Party all night long  or dinning out ... or a Romantic Date  ;) or an in-house party  .....  i am sure we all have plans ... but at times i quite like the idea of PAJAMA PARTY too ...  in my form i will classify this in the category of party only ....the endless gup shup .. the clock tics 4 am, and you still haven't finished your part .... All of us do that when we are home for a PAJAMA PARTY... read on..


The pic so much reminds of the fun. Going back to the old days where late nights was out of question (it was like as if you had asked to go to a different planet)  and when you are sulking sitting home finally u are told " you can call friends over" ..... that would bring smile to your face ... i loved that time .... I'm sure you did too ... 

Its so much fun when we all sit together and talk all the nonsense in the world .. that what I define as NONSENSE now was of course the most fruitful conversation for us at that time, btw, hehe :D.  of course It made sense to us  .. when we all would  sit and talk about the so called  "affairs" of our friends/ foes around ... and talking about  lil flings or crush`s that we had.  One friend in the corner would be busy talking on phone with her "BF" and of course she is forced to keep the phone  ... You would  make crank calls  .. its so much fun talking on phone with a fake identity (talking at the times of landline ) ... suddenly someone  beside  you will call  out your name  n u r caught .... In todays scenario i would say its the Fb time (there was once orkut time n now its fb or twitter time .. its like classifying as BC or AC) ,checking profiles , pics etc etc  and ofcourse we would have some funny characters in our friend list who are just fun to look at but there are no real friends of yours . isn't it so.  its always a never ending night 
  
Its been a long night and  I'm hungry ... the question would be who would go to the kitchen and fetch something . Each one of us  would have our own reasons to say no ...  one would be scared of dark the other one will certainly deny saying i cant even cook  Maggie .... or something or the other .. and then finally all of us would go together ... walking in the house quietly as if you are a  thief  ... Finally, after so much of struggle, u have something to fill your belly.  
looking outside the window, the morning rays... the birds chirping... and before u know it, its morning time...phew... finally, time to hit the bed :) 

That's one of my pajama party , wat's urs??  c'mon, share with me ur PAJAMA PARTY :))

the party has just begun ...







TGIF !!!  ... and its party time :))  Its the weekend and that party you were looking forward to is on... and u r ready for it, or are u???  Never ending wardrobe has nothing exciting to fit in ….  N just when you are in the market shopping for the weekend party…  clothes ticked .. footwear's decided ... accessories on the list .. and u finally take a sigh .. yes shopping is complete.. but hang-on!  Is your vanity kit complete? …. "of course" you would say, "i have all i need .. lipstick .. kohl .. cream`s ...  blush, etc." .. but, darling, have you actually decided on what are you wearing today ... I mean, the make up ..  


in the summer heat, when you don't want to wear something very loud, but yet have that pretty look, here's something that i feel u must have to give a subtle, yet seductive look to the eyes 

The  Mac base to the eye is a must to enhance the makeup. The make up does not merge and won't fade away until mid night or early morning (u would stay at the party that long .. won't you   )



INGLOT AMC pigment eyeshadow 73 from  ..  Take a lil bit on the brush and  pat in on the middle of the eye spreading it towards the  outer corner of the eye...  you can use more quantity if you want to give lil more purple effect to the eye ...  
 INGLOT (eye shadow 391)  take a black eye shadow spread it towards  the corner of the eye.  spread it neatly on the edge in a > shape
Use a light golded eye shadow from MAC  and apply it under the eyebrow.
Super Liner Luminizer From Loreal. Create a line as thick or as delicate as you wish. 
VOLUME MILLIONS LASHES MASCARA from lorea  as the name says it does not just volumize, millionize your lashes.  


Go girl hit the floor. 
coming up saturday night fever ... :):):)
