My Shopping Experience with IndiaCircus.com: Website Review

4.5.14 3 Comments
With the scorching heat on the head,the entertainment options get limited to just visiting malls and going for movies,but what about those fun shopping visits every now and then? With the mercury rising those visits have to be limited and timed properly. After all a bad tan is the last thing we want...no?
To the rescue comes online shopping and what could be more wonderful than getting your choice of bright,springy and ethnic collection for yourself and for the home all under the same roof...errr....on the same website!!!!
India Circus is the answer!!

About IndiaCircus.com:
The People Behind:
Categories:
Indiacircus.com has a plethora of products belonging to different categories that would make you hard to resist from buying.
Let's take a look:

While I talk about just the above mentioned categories,there are lots other that might interest you..take a peek into the website to know more!
Even after surfing the site for hours,I had a real tough time to make up what I want,everything looked way too tempting. But I finally settled for these:
It took 6 days for the products to reach me. They were safely packed and the quality is good too. Their site seemed quite user friendly and the pop of colour here and there really perks up the shopper's mood.
The best part is they have huge discounts running all the time and also have a category of Mega Sales under which you can find stuff of your choice at a much lesser price.
All in all I found it a great site with oh-so-interesting categories and products!


P.S. Gift Voucher provided,but the review remains honest.

Jabong.com: Website Review

5.12.13 2 Comments
We love shopping...and there's no therapy like retail therapy...Period!!!
And we use all the ways and mediums to get what we want,whether its offline shopping or online. Online shopping website brings me to one of the leading website in the web market today...yeah..its Jabong.com
I recently got a chance to shop from Jabong.com and here are my reviews based on my experience:

About Jabong.com:
Here is what I got to know about them from the wikipedia .
Click on the link to know more.

.Lets take a look at what all Jabong.com has to offer:
The payment options available on Jabong.com are:-
  • Cash On Delivery
  • Credit card
  • Debit card
  • Net Banking
Do go through Jabong's Returns and Cancellation Policy while shopping with them.
My Experience:
My Jabong experience has been really good. I received my parcel within 24 hrs of making the payment. The package came with a FRAGILE sticker and the stuff was carefully bubble-wrapped. What really impressed me was the sticker on the package that says products can be checked before accepting...now who does that?
I bought Colorbar Creme Touch Lippy and a Maybelline colour show nail paint.
The overall experience was pretty good,would really appreciate if they send the stuff in a small box,rather than just bubble wrapping.
Huge variety,great range and awesome offers...I look forward to shop with them again!!!

Pro 120 Full Colour Eyeshadow Palette Part 1: Details,My Take and EOTD

11.10.13 20 Comments
Well in my last post I showed you the 120 palette that I use for my eye looks along with their swatches. As promised this post is about its details. 
To start off..this palette is a dupe of Coastal Scents 120 Palette One and bh Cosmetics 120 Colour Palette 1st Edition.
You can check how similar they are in the image below:


Before heading ahead..lets take a look at its swatches: 


 
 

   
 

Company Claim:
Features:
  • Brand new in retail package
  • Wonderful 120 full color palettes eyeshadow sets perfer for party makeup/casual makeup/wedding makeup, etc.
  • Very pigmented and vibrant,palettes includes matte and shimmer eye shadows, easy to match your look!
  • Rich and leading-the-trend colors, includes 6 new and innovative colors -"mix-and-match" palettes!
  • With 2 layer easy-to-carry design,palettes are divided into 2 layers, more convenient to use!
  • High quality ingredients with silky shine color, can last for all day long!
  • No dye and will not form a annoying eyeshadow mark!
  • Glossy color and norish ingredients together to care eyeskin around!
  • Perfect for both professional Salon or Home use!
  • Feel light and soft,easily create clear and brilliant eye makeup finish.
  • Portable and convenient to use.
  • Case Size: 22.7cm x 15cm x 1.7cm 


Price: $12.39 (I got it for $9.96,paid less than Rs.600 then)

Packaging:
Pro 120 Full Colour Palette comes in a sturdy black case and looks like a mini laptop. It click locks to ensure the safety of the product inside It contains of two trays with 6o eye shadows each. The trays are not attached and can be taken out easily. Both the trays have a thick plastic sheet sheet cut out over them so the the product doesn't get scratched or broken. Over all the packaging is neat and quite good for the price.


Pigmentation:
Oh yeah....you can make that out from the swatches most of the shades are super-duper pigmented. So much so that you really need to have a light hand while applying these as they are very capable of making one look like a clown if used with a heavy hand. Having said that,the palette also has few eyeshadows of veluxe finish which are comparatively very less pigmented..but like I said MOST of the shades are super pigmented.
Tip: Don't forget to tap the brush downward so as to remove the excess amount.

Finish:
Its a huge palette with various eyeshadow finishes ranging from matte,frost,satin to luster.. But I notice more mattes!

My Take:
I got this Pro 120 Full Colour Palette from Buyincoins.com around 6months back,the reason being my wish to plunge in the pools of eye looks and I'm happy I did since it caters to most of my needs. It has multitude shades from all the colours. Different shadows are different in terms of finishes,pigmentation and fall out for eg. the shimmery black eyeshadow (third form right in the first row) is one of the most beautiful shade and it is super pigmented but it suffers from major fall out! Also the shadows are not waterproof,they spread and smudge easily with just a splash of water.
And this is what I came up with using this palette!!!

My Likes:
  • Its has a huge variety of colours.
  • You get different finshes (matte/satin/luster) all in one palette.
  • Nice packaging.
  • Super affordable.
  • The trays come out..easy for application!
  • Easy to carry a palette than different singles.
  • Colours are very saturated.
  • Blending them isn't an issue.
My Dislikes:
  • Some eyeshadows have fall out issues.
  • Some appear different in pan but are similar on application.
  • Not waterproof.
  • 5 of the eyeshadows came broken,I fixed them :(
  • You can get coastal scents or bh cosmetics palette which just a little higher in price when on sale.
Last Word:
Despite the cons mentioned above,its an amazing palette to start off with.I'm looking forward to do various eye looks with this baby!

Repurchase:
I won't finish this anytime soon!

Over All Rating: 4/5
Wait for my next post to see the swatches of another 60 eyeshadows from the second tray :)

P.S. The swatches above are on bare skin without primer.

Garnier Skin Naturals Anti-Dark circle Eye Roll-on in Light: Review and Swatch

19.5.13 11 Comments
Everyone has few stuffs in their kitty which could easily contest for "Products I regret buying" Award..and in my case this one would be a sure-shot winner :P
Online shopping isn't always an all-smiles experience..this is one hell of an example of it.
Read on WHY:
Company Claims:
Dark circles not only make you look tired but also darken your eye contour. Garnier introduces Light Anti Dark Circles 2-in-1 Tinted Eye Roll-on, the 1st refreshing roll-on with dual anti dark circles action

Instant covering action: Concentrated in mineral pigments, it covers dark circles in a flash. Giving you soft, natural looking finish for long lasting wear.

Anti dark circle hydrating care: Enriched with caffeine and pure lemon essence, known for its brightening properties, it combines a hydrating formula and the draining effect of a massage to effectively reduce dark circles and reveal a radiant and fresh look.

Available for 2 skin tones

1. Light
2. Medium

Directions To Use:
Apply Garnier Anti Dark Circles Eye Roll-on to the eye contour area in light circular massaging movements. The liquid will be applied automatically via the roller ball. If necessary, use your fingertips to spread evenly.
Recommended usage: Twice a day, in the morning and in the evening.

Proven efficacy:
    • Dark circles are perfectly covered and appear reduced.
    • Eye contour is refreshed and brighter.
Price Vs. Quantity: INR 199/- / 15ml (I got this for INR 179/-)

Ingredients: (From an online shopping website)
Pure Lemon Essence & Vitamin C to clarify & smoothen skin.
Long Dan extract to help slow down skin darkening.
Glycerin to moisturise and comfort the skin.



Packaging:
Garnier Skin Naturals Anti-Dark circle Eye Roll-on definitely scores high in the packaging. It comes in a skin-colour pen-like tube with a metal roller-tip. Though the tip gets messy but nothing comes out to make it non-travel friendly.

Shades Available:
Garnier Skin Naturals Anti-Dark circle Eye Roll-on comes in only two shades:
1. Light ( the one I have)
2. Medium
Here lies the problem...I don't know what went in my head that I bought the shade Light,when people around with a similar NC35 skin tone are finding even Shade Medium,light on them :/
Light is too light on me :(

Texture:
This is another issue..It is kinda liquidy in consistency,even then spreading it evenly isn't a cake-walk. I have to be really swift in setting it and once its set it leaves a whitish powdery effect.. Don't like it :/
Its kind of drying :(

My Take:
It definitely conceals the dark circles but the shade Light is too light on me. Post application too,it isn't creamy. It settles to a powdery finish which looks pretty ashy. Spreading it is a big pain. I have to keep the under eye area well moisturised before using the Garnier Skin Naturals Anti-Dark circle Eye Roll-on which makes spreading evenly possible. Due to its runny consistency, there's no way you can use a concealer brush with this. Fingers have to dab-dab!!
I don't think this product is capable of covering severe dark circles as it is not a full-coverage concealer.

My Likes:
1. Good Packaging
2. Affordable.
3. Gives medium coverage.
4. Just a little amount will work.
5. Good to conceal if you don't have very prominent dark circles.

My Dislikes:
1. Only two shades available and even medium is very light for Indian skin tones.
2. Consistency is too runny.
3. Isn't moisturising at all..infact its quite drying!
4. Leaves behind a powdery/ashy effect.
5. Its not a full-coverage concealer.
6. False claims of hydrating care.
7. Another false claim of reducing dark circles.

Last Word:
I bought this as a medium-coverage-everyday-concealer but have encountered several problems in using it everyday. I need very little amount since it is such a light shade,but blending little amount of it is another issue!

Repurchase:
Definitely no..I prefer my Colorbar Instant cover up stick over this!

Over All Rating: 2.5/5

My Shopping Experience at Myntra.com

Its no-brainer that online shopping has proven to be a boon to people with scarcity of time, inaccessibility to shopping destinations and to top it all nonavailability of your favourite stuff at the shopping joints. I know swatching your favourite shades of lipsticks,eyeliners,foundations and what not is a great fun in itself but who would deny the luxury of sitting in your own cozy place,scrolling through the online shopping site pages and getting to know that one particular product you broke your heels searching for and then got to know it was OOS is right infront of you,readily available to be taken away and that too at a discount :D

My Take:

Being a beauty blogger, I was personally interested in their Cosmetics section. Thus I ordered a Revlon Just Bitten kissable Lip Balm Stain in Adore,Maybelline Collossal Mascara and a Colorbar concealer stick in Caramel Treat. I placed the order on 22nd Apr'13 around 4pm and the package was at my doorstep on 24th Apr'13. I mean I don't remember any shopping site that delivered my products in less than 48hrs. Super awesome delivery..I'm impressed!!
After placing an order I received and order confirmation mail and sms and most surprisingly (pleasantly though) along with the order delivery,came a Returns Document which was to be filled and sent to Myntra in case the customer is not satisfied with his/her purchase...
