I officially promoted my shopping buddy to soul sister!!!😘😋 My sweet friend did quite a bit of shopping for me during the sale season and few weeks ago, I received the huge bag sent from her😍. So I have to make a list of things I want from Europe and here it is with the reasons why they made it to the list. French pharmacy : Obviously, the first thing that I browsed for is french pharmacy🤓. Bioderma - micellar water : This cult favorite needs no introduction - they are used by many makeup artists and enjoy a huge following in the make-up world. I already bought a 250 ml bottle, so only asked for the minis and of different variants other than my regular sensibo. However, she got 500ml bottles of sensibo on sale and picked one for me too (that's why she is the best shopping buddy😁). Caudalie beauty elixir and vinosource : when I picked few products from Caudalie in Paris, I didn't know about that brand😮. But when I was making the list, their vinosource products a...

Shopping at The body shop online store

As I mentioned in my earlier post , here is the lists of products I got from The Body Shop online site. 1. Strawberry body polish: I used a smaller size one in London and liked it a lot. It got the nice strawberry scent - normally I am not a big fan of fruity fragrances, but this got such a soft smell, not only it did not bother me, I kind of liked it too. After going through my latest scrub from Dirty Works, I did not get another one for quite a while, even thinking of going for a DIY. Then I came across this site and it was in 50% discount ie., 312.5 INR (Additional discount reduced the price further to 265) - the best offer I got so far on this scrub is not less than 500 INR. Then again the shipping price is 200 INR unless the total price is 2500 INR. No love lost there as I was already prepared for no body scrub, but I started browsing the site and that's just the beginning. 2. Peppermint foot scrub: Between hair and face, rest of the body kind of takes back seat and, when...

January empties

Most of the products, I finished last month, are cleaning accessories and there are few skin care and a makeup product too. So, here's the list of them with mini reviews. 1. Ysl touche eclat: this could be termed as the star product of the list - not just for the quality but also because I like it when I finish up a makeup product 😁. I came across wonderful reviews of this product and I was quite intrigued even before buying it, but I never really planned on purchasing it. I picked it when I had to choose 3 products on 3 for 2 offer in Paris Marionnaud. Initially, I was only using it on extra dressy days and eventually it became regular - how else am I supposed to finish it within its shelf life of 6 months😓 (not that I did)? This was my first highlighter and, even though I dont have any frame of reference, I could tell its quite good. It looks especially well in photos and gives a light concealing effect too. I got a clinique high-lighter in sample size which I will not ope...
