Garnier BB Cream Miracle Skin Perfector with Spf 24: Review,Price and Swatches

9.4.16 9 Comments
Yaa yaa I know..everybody ... I mean everyyyyyyyyyybody has used and reviewed this BB cream,it was just me who was hibernating blissfully.
The reason being...I didn't buy it when it was launched because the moment I thought of another BB Cream,the ones sitting in my stash gave me a cold stare. 
Heading straight to my experience regarding the Garnier BB Cream---> here we go!!!


Product Info given on the tube:

 Ingredients:

Price/Quantity: INR 199/40gm


My Take:

It comes in a skin coloured,squeezy kinds plastic tube with a white cap. It has a long nozzle that helps controlling the amount you want to squeeze out. All the basic info is on the tube itself. Its Easy to use and good to travel along!
Garnier BB Cream gives a sheer coverage on me,though I have heard people talking about its sheer to medium coverage.  It adds a sheen to the skin and brightens up the face..only when compared to a bare face. 
Its good for college goers and even otherwise if you are blessed with a good skin itself. It is pretty hydrating so even if you have a dry skin,you don't really need anything beneath it or you could go all shinny around the town! 
 I DID EXPECT a bit more coverage given the fact that I have used other BB Creams and the homemade one. Else I might add quarter of a drop of my foundation to it to make it work for me as a BB Cream and not just a moisturizer!
Comes in just one shade :/

Does Inveda Whitening and Depigmentation Cream actually fights out depigmentation? Review

23.6.15 10 Comments
They say good skin is the best makeup..And I for one never realized its importance when I was blessed with a spotless skin..It was only after the kids and the slight pigmentation on my face that I thought something needs to be done.
This thought introduced me to Inveda's Whitening and De Pigmentation Cream.

Company Claims,Price,Quantity and Directions to Apply

My Take:
First things first..it has a beaaauuutiful packaging. The chocolate and gold packaging looks too yummy. I smell Moroccan inspiration on the lid. Jar packaging though isn't a hit with everyone,I didn't mind much since its just me who is using it so hygine is takien care of.


The texture of the cream is buttery smooth and its very light weight. I love how it gets absorbed in my skin within seconds and actually hydrates it.
The next good thing is that it smells Aaaahhhmmmaaazing! I can really not make out the notes but a sniff of it does remind me of musk and jasmine. Its really spa like refreshing!

 Now lets come to the real job that it was expected to perform and for that I had to hit the bottom...FAST Forward to now!
I was really blessed with an almost spotless skin but post my son's birth I stated noticing pigmentation patches on my skin. I was told they were due to the hormonal changes and that they would go off soon.. They didn't :(
This made me try a bunch of products from gels to creams to oils and the hunt is still on.. This hunt made me land here. Used it diligently only to be happy just with its moisturizing effect and nice fragrance. Infact I find it very good as a night cream rather than depigmentation cream. I woke up with a hydrated calm skin every morning as if there has been a rain shower on a dry earth.

Crux of the Matter:
Inveda Whitening and Depigmentation Cream is one of the most smooth,soft,refreshing and hydrating cream that has reached my skin but it didn't work to diminish my pigmentation.

Avon Care Fairness Cream: Review and Swatches

9.1.13 5 Comments
My search for that perfect everyday cream made me try many a products that markets are flooded with. Some broke me out,others left a white cast,were drying/powdery and there were those who went awfully wrong with the camera :/

Recently only I my Avon rep recommended me this Avon Care Fairness Cream claiming it is one of the best sellers. Now that its on offer for the past two months..I didn't think twice..and Thank God I didn't!
Company Claims:
  • Provides instant fairness
  • Contains antioxidants to protect skin against dust

Price/Quantity: INR 100/- /50gms (most of the time on offer.I got mine for 75/-)

 Ingredients:

Packaging:
Avon Care Fairness Cream comes in a cute looking white-pink plastic tube with a twist open blue cap. Nothing fancy just cute and practical.

My Experience:

Now before I narrate my experience,let me stress that I wasn't hunting for a "fairness" cream,I have medium to fair complexion (though I love love love duskier beauties..Chitrangda Singh to name one) All I wanted was a budget daily cream which would brighten and freshen my face up and an even skin tone would surely be a thumbs up. My Avon rep suggested me this,stating its one of her regularly in-demand product. Rs.75/- for an experiment wasn't burning a hole..so gave it a try and Whoaaa..
Its baby pink in colour,has a lovely floral smell which is pretty noticeable (might even prove to be too strong for sensitive noses) but I like it..its floral and its fresh!
It brightens up the face and has a moisturising effect as well. Doesn't break me out and no white cast effect.

My Likes:
1. Freshens and brightens my face.
2. I like the floral fresh fragrance (remember its not mild)
3. Travel friendly packaging.
4. Does not break me out.
5. Does not dry me out.
6. Does not leave a white cast (until you apply loads of it)
7. A pea-size is more than enough for the whole face
8. Has a moisturising effect.
9. Gives a glowy-dewy finish.
10. Super-Affordable.

My Dislikes:
1. The smell can be strong for some!
2. Has Parabens.
3. Doesn't provide much coverage (its not tinted you see)

Last Word:
My holy grail everyday cream!

Repurchase:
YUP..for sure!

Over All Rating: 4.8/5
