My Fall picks : Lipsticks.

Hello Girlies,

Fall is here and fall is all about vampy purple shades and nudes. I picked up my fall favorite lipsticks. I hope you like them. 
1. Rimmel apocalips in the shade stellar. 
I love the finish of this liquid lipstick. It is very glossy and long lasting. 





2. Rimmel Kate moss in the shade 20. 
It is a pink shade with purple undertones. Love it. 




3. Chambor lipstick in the shade Rouge Plump (747). 
It is a gorgeous purple shade with blue undertones. My favourite lipstick after ruby woo. The texture is very moisturizing and smooth in application. The only problem with this is staying power. 






4:  Loreal color riche lipstick in Cassis passion. 
I like this one amongst the rest mentioned here. |It is a berry shade and I applied it here very lightly. 







 5. Loreal Lip carasse in the shade eve. 
|I love this as a lip gloss over all my dark lipsticks through out the fall. It is plum burgundy shade and is very light.







These are my go to lip shades this season. I hope you like them.

My Navratri Look.

Hello Girlies,
Happu Dushera. This Navratri has been amazing and this is what my makeup looked like on Dushera. I went with basic gold eyes with a winged eyeliner and red lips. I love red for festivals and here is step by step tutorial. I hope you will like it.

Step 1:

Moisturizing the eye area using a moisturizer. I am using L'Oreal Hydrafresh because it sets almost matte and has gel consistency.



Step 2: 

Filled my eyebrows using a coastal scents eyeshadow in Timeless taupe with an angular brush from the same brand.



Step 3:

For correcting my under eyes I used Pixi concealer in Brightening peach under the eye area.



Step 4:
I used a concealer from Derma color of kryolan isn the shade D5.




Step 5:

Applied Maybelline color tattoo in Bold Gold using an Elf eyeshadow brush all over the lid leaving last 1/4th of the lid. Since the color tattoo was dry i used a drop of inglot Duraline. 




Step 6:

I used the gold from the desert rose pallete of Lakme over the color tattoo. I contoured my eyes using the darkest bronze shade from the same pallete and used it in the outer corner of my eye for some definition.



Step 7: 
Using a gel eyeliner from L'Oreal I did my eyeliner and winged it out. I used a fine liner brush from real techniques for this.




Step 8:
I used a Lakme eyeliner pencil for my lower lash line. I went a little crazy and added a few dots under my winged liner using Lakme absolute shine line.






Step 9: 
I used maybelline falsies mascara for my lashes.




 Step 10: 
I used my favourite Mac ruby woo to complete the look.





Here is a quick Before After.

INGLOT Blush refill no :27 review

Hello Everyone,
If there is anyone out there who don't know about the brand INGLOT then you are definitely missing out on something. As I come from hyderabad there is no Inglot store out here and most of us don't know about the brand. I came across the brand some time back while surfing and was amazed to see the positive reviews it got. I felt the prices are not too low and are almost equal to MAC. Inglot have their new range called as freedom system where you can buy refill pans which are super affordable. You cannot buy refills directly from the store unless you have a palette of their own but they are available online at Majorbrands.com. Most of the bloggers who don't have a palette make notes of shades they want from the store and buy them online. Inglot doesn't have names it has numbers.


My take on the product:
I recently brought few eye shadows and a blush refills from the site and I must say I love the blush. 
The packaging is sleek and is in a rectangular form. 
The blush seems like a satin finish one but when applied it is matte. I prefer matte blushes to shimmer ones so I completely adore it. 
The color suits almost every Indian skin tone. It instantly warms up the shade when applied. 
The texture smooth, soft and velvety but with minimal fall out. 
I love the color pay off. The blush is extremely pigmented and a tiny amount is enough to add that pink flush to your cheeks. It stays on for a quite a bit of time. 
Over all I think this is one of the best blushes available in the market. If you are a blush lover like me then this is a must try.

Price : 350/-
Quantity : 6 grams. (says 7 grams on the site)
Buy it : Here 

Pictures: 






Pros:
Highly pigmented
Texture is very soft
Minimal fallout
Affordable
Super Blendable
Not tested on animals.

Cons:
Availability
A palette is required. 

Final words:
Refills are affordable but they are a pain to store.Make your own magnetic palette like I did or go for the trusty Z-palette. You can store other eye shadows and blush refills like that of MAC or any other brands. You can also depot bulky packaging and use them to reduce the space. I pretty much liked the refill as I already prepared a magnetic palette. The color is extremely suitable for Indian skin tones so if you are having a tough time choosing a blush for yourself blindly opt for this. 

Rating : 4.5/5
