5 Tips for Applying Makeup on the DrySkin

1. Moisturizing your skin everyday & also before applying makeup is the Key. Makeup artists recommend makeup primer too which adds a protective barrier while eliminating dry patches and allowing the makeup to stay put nicely. 

2.Use Creamy foundations and concealers work best for dry skin. Examples like Makeupforever high-definition foundations that is super light on the face, provide maximum coverage to give you a flawless, natural-looking complexion. Powdery makeup will cake up on your dry skin and draw attention to lines, creases and wrinkles.  Be sure to use a brush rather than your fingertips to apply concealer, then foundation. For lighter coverage, glide the brush lightly over your face, using downward strokes. For more coverage, press the brush slightly onto your skin as you cover your face.

3. Always Finish with the loose powder. There are many varieties of sheer, translucent finishing powders and some are hydrating and added benefit for dry skin.

4. Use creamy eyeshadow, blush & liquid eyeliner, because eye pencils or powders can easily flake and make fine lines or wrinkles stand out.

5. Choose the right lip formula.

 If your lips get dry easily, avoid matte lipstick as they  will cause more dryness. Stick to lip gloss or sheer lipstick.

Rimmel Provocalips 16 Hour Kiss Proof Lip Colours in "Play With Fire": Review/Swatches

Hello lovelies

Recently I have been getting so many compliment from my friends on the new Rimmel Provocalips in colour "Play with fire" & twice even in the mall ladies came up to me to ask the brand/name of lipstick :) So therefore I decided this is the right time to Review this amazing product

Lets start!!!

It is two step system, you’re instructed to firstly apply colour and wait for few second then apply topcoat to lock the colour. It is available in 8 shades. I got one colour from the range " Play With Fire'' its lovely Hot Red colour.

The applicator holds  too much product, so wipe it off before you apply it.

The formula is amazing, lightweight, super glossy & very pigmented. The best part is it last for 16 hours & it is kiss proof, food proof & transfer proof :)
Small downside is you need nice oil based cleanser to remove the colour. 

Hope you enjoyed this post!!! 

Let me know what you think of Rimmel provocalips & which is your favourite colour???

BOURJOIS ROUGE EDITION VELVET "HAPPY NUDE YEAR" : Review/Swatch

When I first saw Bourjois rouge edition velvet lipsticks with my sister, I just fell in love with it. I just love the idea of a liquid lipstick with a matte finish. One week back my sister bought me the shade"Happy Nude Year" its such a beautiful  pink/nude color

They go on like a gloss with a wand applicator.I find that this gives me so much more control over the product and how it applies!!! The texture is just perfect,creamy formula that glides on so easily.The staying power is amazing too. 

I think many people will love Happy Nude Year as it's so wearable and will suit every complexion.

Overall, this is my everyday lipstick now & I love it :)

Rimmel WonderFull Mascara

Hello lovelies

It's me asma taking over the blog for today post :)
I have never used any Rimmel mascara before but what drew me most to this Wonder'full mascara is that it is made with Argan oil!!! Yes you heard me right :) so I thought to give it try to nourish & condition my lashes.

Packaging is so cute it comes in bronze tube. The brush is really nice also as it's a rubbery one with a lot of bristles. It is definitely flexible & the wand is not stiff at all.This mascara lifts, separates & volumises nicely without causing any clumsiness. The finish of mascara is quite light & it is super black in colour. I am using it when ever I am going out & it didnt smudge once.

Overall I  am so happy with this masacara.Hope this review was helpful :)

Available at all Rimmel counters in lifestyle stores across UAE

OUR 6 Favourite Perfumes of 2014

We have always been obsessed with perfume's & today we will be Sharing our Top 6 Perfumes that we loved in 2014 but definitely writing about it is not easy because it's so tricky to describe something that you cant see or touch but only you can smell!!

Let's start...

1. Giorgio Armani Si : Packaging is very simple and elegant, featuring clear glass and a black cap. The bottle is quite heavy and feels very expensive. The scent itself is very unique and once you smell it, you will  always remember it. It's contrast between fresh citrus & woody musky in short,I would describe it as a unique & elegant scent. It's very long lasting,so its best used as an evening perfume or for special occasions.This is our third bottle.

2. Givenchy PLAY for her: This is our first Givenchy perfume.We bought it together after smelling it & we both love it so much plus we always get complement on this scent. It's more floral smell with bit of woodiness definitely perfect for day time because its light smell perfume with amazing lasting power.

3.Calvin klein Euphoria : Our mom got this for us few months back & we loved it because it has heavier floral/sweet smell definitely not overpowering that ends up giving you headache. Good for both day & night time.

4.Gucci Guilty intense : This is Uzma favourite perfume I do like it but it doesnt last long on me maybe because of my body chemistry, it has floral smell.Love the bottle design.

5 Rasasi Romance : OMG....yesss that was my reaction when my bestie wore this perfume I was amazed with the smell.The smell made me so happy seriously. I wanted to buy it but then we already that so many perfume but Few months back my friend gifted me this I was so happy. My sister & mom loved it too.It is deep floral/woody fragrance, very feminine & very natural.My only complain is that its lasting power is not that great.

6.Paco Rabanne Lady Million perfume : First of all we love the gold diamond shape bottle. After hearing so much good about this perfume we gave it try & now we like it too. It has woody floral smell with hint of sweetness. We get compliment on this always. This is our 3 or 4 bottle :)

Hope you guys like Our Favourite!! please let us know if you have any question or suggestion on any perfume that you think we should try...

Murad Environmental Shield

Hello lovelies

Happy new year to all :)

Today we will be sharing our thoughts on "Murad Skincare products"

so,Lets get started!!

Essential-C cleanser : Product detail ( Antioxidant Vitamins A, C and E neutralize free radicals and other environmental aggressors while Phospholipids bind moisture to the skin. Essential-C Cleanser establishes a well-hydrated foundation for application of a treatment product)

Our thoughts:

We both have sensitive skin so therefor we always hesitate on switching our skincare products but we are glad that we got to try this amazing cleanser.Our skin has never been so clean & radiant plus it smell amazing, We are using it every morning. It deep cleanse the skin making it soft,smooth & hydrated. It helps in removing makeup also plus we didn't even breakout once, definitely give it try.

Advanced Active Radiance Serum : Product detail ( Faster-acting formula with double the brighteners boosts radiance and reverses visible signs of environmental damage. Preserve clarity and defend against future damage for lasting youthful radiance)

Our thoughts:

Best serum ever!!!We use it after the Essential-C cleanser. It feels light & smooth on the skin plus it is helping in clearing  my pimple spot (I am so happy, luckily uzma doesn't have any pigmentation or pimples marks)making my skin-tone more clear & radiant. 

Overall We are really happy that we got to tried Murad Product...It has made our skintone more even & clear....Our only concern is that it's bit expensive!! 
I hope this review was helpful.
