Makeup kit for beginners under 5000 PKR

Hi everyone and welcome back to the blog so today I am here to help out those girls who have just started their college or maybe starting and have no clue about makeup (quality products) and are also on a budget

So I have arranged the mentions that are suitable for all skin types because when you are starting off you actually are not super sure about your skin type

And also all these products are used and repurchasd by me so many times so don't worry all the products are tried and tested

So let's get started

Garnier BB cream
795 PKR

If we have to wear makeup most of the days in the week why not keep it light and let our skin breath as well
For that I will go for a light BB cream instead of a foundation and I will lightly apply it on to the face and even if it's not covering completely please remember it is letting your skin breath and this Garnier BB cream is the best out there as it has Vitamin C as well as blemish controlling ingredients in here but make sure you get the oil free one it works best on all skin type

Rimmel Stay Matte powder
825 PKR

So I use to be super scared by the word "Matte" but once I tried it I haven't been able to put it down as it it the most airbrushed flawless powder which doesn't feel heavy or cakey at all and it prevents the oil and sweat coming on the face
My favorite way is to use it with a big fluffy brush and 1 thing is I never forget my eyelids which most people tend to

Makeup Revolution contour kit in C01 fair
650 PKR

This palette has all the 3 items you need to put on the face to give the color back to it

Bronzer
The cool and warm tones are perfectly mixed in this bronzer makes it super wearable on an everyday basis
Now this is the first thing in the trio I hit pan on

Blush
The pink coral color mixed with the golden hue makes it a perfect glowy blush  which makes you look like you are having a good day

Highlight
This highlight is the perfect shade to begin with not too golden not too peach and not too pink perfect for ones starting out
However you can make it sutle or intense according to your liking

Essence make me brow in 02 dark
495 PKR

Now this is a tinted mascara gel for your brows because it has the power of keeping your brows intact all day long plus the tint makes it easier for you as you just have to run it through your brows  without worrying of filling the brows in

Maybelline collosal kajal
350 PKR

If you are a kajal person you need this in your life it stays put and looks beautiful however you can use it as an eyeliner because it will be tough to start with other liner forms or you can just use it on the upper lashline giving it the appearance of Fuller lashes

Maybelline great lash
499 PKR

Now I'm sure everyone is familiar with this mascara as this is the mascara which get sold every 4 seconds and as you can see the years this has been awarded I don't think we need to know anything else to be sure

This is the best mascara for every day use you can keep it super natural as well as super volumizing and lengthning and let me tell you 1 bottle can last you a pretty long time

Essence Matt Matt Matt lipstick
420 PKR

This range of lipstick as a whole is amazing as it is Matte but unlike other Matte lipsticks this applies smoothly and it is creamy enough to make you feel comfortable also not to mention it is Long lasting unless you eat something extremely oily

Our total now is 4024 PKR

I almost skipped 1000 for you to maybe include a concealer or have variety of lip products

DISCLAIMER : I have taken all the pictures from the web just to follow a certain theme but you can see on my Instagram that I have featured the products in numerous pictures

Until next time
Stay gorgeous

"Foundation Routine" for Dry Skin

Hi everyone I hope you guys are well
And I know I'm posting after ages because of my study and stuff but let's start again

So if you guys know me you would know that I suffer from extreme dry skin problems and obviously it is even harder to do your foundation/base with such skin problems but now i do have a routine which can make your skin look beautiful personally and in pictures as well So let's get started

Please note that I will only be discussing the foundation portion but if you guys want to know what primers I use or what skin care steps I take please feel free to ask

My Foundation Routine:

First things first I like to take my Makeup Revolution Strobe cream then I mix equal amount of Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in the strobe cream and dot it on my face
now I would like to mention here that I know that if you have textured or pigmented skin then you would have to mix more foundation as you go

Once I'm done with the mixing and applying I like to take either REAL TECHNIQUES buffing brush or SIGMA F80 flat top kabuki or BEAUTIFY BY AMNA Foundation brush depends on which one is clean that day but honestly I love them all but still if I would have to choose then hands down I will be choosing the SIGMA one

Just before buffing my foundation I like to spray my brush with some of Makeup Revolution Pro Fix Illuminating Spray to further make my foundation look more illuminating and natural at the same time and then I buff my foundation away then just after that I like to set the face with my Essence Cosmetics Strobing Highlight powder which is a satin finish powder and will not cakey at all

Trust me my foundation does look beautiful and I have received a fair share of compliments because of this trick which I have been using since 7 8 months on every special occasion

So if you have dry skin please do try this and let me know your thoughts

UNTIL NEXT TIME:
STAY GOURGEOUS

My go to nail options for the Fall/Winter

Hi everyone welcome back and I hope you guys are all well

As you guys know that I haven't posted anything this week that is just because my WiFi was not working but now I'm posting finally
So today I'm going to share my 4 go to fall/winter nail color/ the colors I mostly reach in winters, So let's get into it and some tips and tricks regarding nail polishes

Number 1 Genny "315"
This is a darker red color kind of an Ox red which is super fall appropriate because it just gives an amazing fall vibe instead of the bright red color (this polish is a little bit dry so in the picture its not looking that pretty)

Number 2 Essence "52 Amazed by you"

So it's a darker mauvy purple which is a definite must have for the fall because as you guys know mauve and burgundy colors are so on trend every fall and because this polish is a gel formula it is super easy to apply

Number 3 Golden Rose "137" We all know how much everyone loves a black nail polish but this one is not just an ordinary black but It"s a black with some finely milled grey silver glitter in it which just gives it super pretty affect and to be honest this is my favorite color in all of the colors I'm mentioning and it's coming from a girl who doesn't like to wear black color

Number 4 Maybelline color show "150 Mauve kiss"
Just as the name suggest it is a very pretty mauve color but it is a muted mauve mixed with some brown tones and it is perfect for those days when you don't really want dark nails or don't feel like going full glam with the nails this is the PERFECT color

Tips and tricks
Now on to some tips and tricks on how to apply the polish:-

1~ First thing thing is when you will be opening your nail polish/color you need to make sure that there is no Fan or AC on this will make sure that your nail polish bottle will last you longer and doesn't dry out plus it will also make the application process smooth

2~ Instead of applying your color placing your nails on the opposite side of your face you need to place your nails inwards to your face if I make any sense LOL The other way I can tell you guys is the way i bend my fingers in all the pictures do that it will make it super easy

3~ try to give your nails some time like use a buffer before applying the nail polish it will look super pretty

4~ If you want a perfect smooth nail color you want to make sure that you apply at least 2 coats but after applying 1 THIN coat try to wait for about 5 minutes to make it completely dry then apply the other coat this will help to apply smoothly and with a more opaque color rather then applying the 2nd coat before the first coat is dry and mess up the whole nail

5~ For long lasting results which will last you a week try to apply a top coat after the 2 layers

So that's it for today's blog I hope you guys enjoyed as much as I did writing it for you guys

Now my nails need some rest because they are dying after facing so many nail colors just in 1 day

Until Next time

STAY GORGEOUS!!!

Fall/winter lipsticks option (mauve, berry and plum) inspired

Hi beautiful ladies welcome back to my channel

So if you guys are following me on Instagram then you will already know that this blog is coming. As we all know fall is coming and its all about that dark lip trend not only the reds but also some intense mauves and plums which I enjoy a lot so I have decided to show you guys some options which you can totally rock starting from the lip liner to the liquid lipsticks in today's post I'm trying to cover each and every lip category for you guys so I hope you will find at least 1 for yourself

Let's get started

Lip liners

Essence long lasting lip liner (10 berry on my mind)

It is a very wearable color for the people who In case don't like to go full on glam but still wants something to make their lips fall appropriate this lip liner is perfect for them. This color has a mauve undertone with more pink to it

Femina Long lasting lip liner (F-411 Cherry Red)

With this lip liner I will completely disagree with the name because this one has a perfect blend of maroon and plum which is so perfect for fall. you can flaunt this lip liner all on it's own or else you can wear it underneath or on top of a lipstick as well. it is so perfect yet so affordable. Now I myself have wore this lip liner when I wanted to do DEEPIKA PADUKONE 2014 Iifa inspired look for a function in my family with 2 other lipsticks on top

Essence Lip liner (Satin Mauve) 

So I know this liner has been discontinued by Essence but still I got my hands on it in September after searching so much and If you guys can still buy it then I'll definitely say that It is worth buying, So as the the name suggest satin mauve yeah it is. This is perfect for those who want hint of nude with mauve as their everyday lip color

LIP BALM

Maybelline Baby Lips (Pink Shock)

I wanted to include a lip balm in the options for those of you who are just starting makeup or for those who don't like the dark lip trend or going out full glam, The maybelline baby lips is a perfect option for you Now I know it is pink but still it has a fun purple element going on. so it has 2 benefits the lip protection + lip color

Lipsticks in a pencil form

Rivaj UK lipstick pencil (024 Brown sugar)

This color is very muted tone of mauve. it is like hidden mauve in a very cool tone brown which makes it wearable but a little bit glam at the same time

Essence Glossy stick (Brilliant burgundy)

So this shade is a glossy finish for those who don't or can't wear matte lipsticks in general this stuff has plum undertones which makes it super fall appropriate

Lipsticks in bullet form
Clinique lipstick (A Different Grape)

Now this lipstick is super creamy/easy to apply and the color is very wearable for fall time during some simple outdoor lunches this will look perfect. It is a perfect blend of brown and plum in one which is a rare shade

Rimmel moisture RENEW lipstick (380 Dark Night Waterl-oops)

As you guys can see the Berry tone lipstick is perfect when you want to go a little bit xtra glam without having to worry about the dryness because this is super moisturizing and it does go on super smoothly just in 1 swipe

Essence lipstick (Barely there)

This lipstick is a perfect dark nude with the mauve under tone so this will be perfect on the normal days or for those people who doesn't like the dark lip

Flormar Lipstick (525)

This lipstick for me discribes the perfect plum color which is super moisturizing non drying and literally this can stay put for 8 hours at least which for a moisturizing lipstick is insane

Lip Gloss

Essence XXXL Long lasting lip gloss (Berry cream 10)

This is a lip gloss with a velvet matte finish for those who don't like to wear liquid lipstick but still want a matte affect. It doesn't dry down so you can still feel the lip cream instead of feeling the dry lips

Liquid Lipsticks

Beauty Uk Lip MATTER (07 Mauve your body)

As the name says mauve I myself feel like it is the best pure mauve color here and it dries down complete matte plus doesn't make your lips dry

Color pop (lumeire 2)

Now i will be honest with you guys that I was planning to do this whole fall lipstick inspiration from a month but actually was waiting for this color, Now this color is a mixture of plum and mauve plus so much of cool tone but still it is very drying 

So now that's pretty much it. I hope you guys found it helpful because honestly this was too tough
Comment down below and tell me which one is your type and

Until Next time
STAY HAPPY AND FALL READY!!!

Monthly favorites "September"

Hi beautiful ladies Welcome back to my blog

So we are officially in the month of October which means it's time to talk about some monthly favorites. Now I didn't actually  posted any monthly favorites in the past but now I have decided I will try and do these every single month because they are so fun to watch/read so I have decided I'll also be taking part in them
Let's get started

  L'oreal Paris Triple active Fresh Hydra Gel

Girl if you have Dry and sensitive skin at the same time then this is your day time best now and it is a hydra gel which is a big bonus in my books. Now I have normal to dry skin in summer but in winters it's super drying so I love their normal skin one but I was like let's try the dry one and let me tell you this is amazing

MAYBELLINE baby lips Color

This is something I'm constantly using from 2 months now in the day time and I have gone through 1 already It has a slight fragrance which I don't mind at all and it also have SPF 20 which is an essential for the time plus it stays on for about 4 to 5 hours which is awesome . The fact that I love it so much is that this stuff is my perfect MLBB color

MAKEUP REVOLUTION LONDON "Ultra Strobe Cream"

So I was waiting for this stuff eagerly to come in Pakistan so I finally got it in mid of June and since then this stuff is the PARTNER IN GLOW for me. It gives you such a beautiful glow or a glow within
Now I first apply my primer then the strobe cream and then my foundation and it look so effortless and flawless at the same time

ESSENCE 2 in 1 eyeshadow and eyeliner

So ever since I got this eye shadow stick I'm pretty much using this color be itself or with other colors this is a must for me and I believe If you guys are following me for a while now you would have known my bronze obsession. I did post a review on it which you can check here

BEAUTY UK Matte bronzer 02 Dark

Now I don't use this as a bronzer because it has the perfect cool tone for my skin as a contour if you have a darker complexion then me I'm sure it will look beautiful as a bronzer shade so I contour with it and girl I'm obsessed  it's not cakey or powdery but it's super bendable plus build able and very long lasting at the same time

J. Khumar perfume

This is my 2nd bottle and I love it so much that I cannot go over it. Now if you have heard about this perfume before then I know what you must be thinking that she is a girl then why she use a men's fragrance it's actually because I prefer musky perfumes more then the fruity sweet ones but this is not over the top musky I don't know why but this stuff always remind me of spring I know it's not flowery or anything but this is at the same time so refreshing And another thing is that it is super long lasting

SONGS
A random favorite I want to throw here are some songs. You guys don't actually know how hardcore fan I'm of SELENA GOMEZ and her songs but this in particular  I was listening so much to "The heart wants what it want" and "Same Old Love" and I was loving Buleya by Ae dil hai mushkil

                                                    (Picture by Google)
Last but not the least

Earrings

Now I got these earrings from a shop in Sahiwal. They are super light weight and easy to wear and at the same time stylish and classy at the same time I'm using it for even glam looks and they pair up with everything gorgeously

So that pretty much it I hope find it helpful I seriously really enjoy writing about all my favorites and now I will see you guys in my next blog and If you want a full in depth review on any of these things don't forget to comment down below or to ask me on Instagram

Till then
STAY BEAUTIFUL!!!
