January Monthly favourites 2019

Assalamualaikum and welcome everyone I hope you are doing well

So today we have our monthly favourites now keep in mind that I will not be doing this every month but only the months I feel like

So let's get started

RIMMEL MATCH PERFECTION CONCEALER

Just as the name suggest this concealer is really perfection I really love the light coverage effects and also that it makes your under eyes look airbrushed from my dryyyy skin it really helps brightning and it doesn't sink into creases but if you are a full coverage concealer kind of a girl then you might not like this product so definitely keep that in mind but for me as I said this is perfect

RIMMEL LIPSTICK IN 700 TREND SETTER

 

Ok so this was an impulse purchase which I was watching a what's in my bag of a youtuber named Rachel Lee and I love her so I was watching her what's in my bag and I saw that she has this lipstick in her hand bag and I was just going to get some groceries that day then I just got this lipstick and I am so in love with this
It is a comfort matte formula it doesn't dry out your lips it doesn't feel heavy or anything and the best part is it is a bullet lipstick but it doesn't transfer so bad like most bullet lipsticks do so I love it and it is always in my handbag and I have been constantly using it in the month of January like every two three times in a week

STEEL COSMETICS BLUSH

This is a brand which I have never heard of I just went to a drug store and I really wanted some light peach colour but then I saw this and I was like I need to get this it is so light it doesn't make you look like oh my god you have so much blush on or anything it really looks natural it looks like you are actually flushing the color and this is super pigmented you if you want you can definitely increase the pigment but I really like keeping it light in beautiful and ever since I have got my hands on this I haven't stopped using it

MAKEUP REVOLUTION HIGHLIGHTER STICK "HYPNOTIC"

So this is the cream highlighter which I think I never have shown you guys but I have been using it for more than 6 months and I am in love I really like this cream highlight I really like how you can keep it subtle you can build it up if you want now I know personally that I am kind of a girl that like barely there kinda makeup but if you want that glow like the beaming one every single day you can actually achieve it with this highlight and only this I am seriously in love I most of the times don't even put a powder highlight on top of it because it is so beautiful itself  looks like meshed into your skin and I am seriously obsessed

ZARA RED VANILLA PERFUME

This is the perfume that I got a small size of in December because if I like it I would go and purchase the bigger size when this will be finished but I seriously love it this is my everyday fragrance it always stays in my handbag I really like the notes I really like the  suble vanilla added to it it's not extremely fruity it's not extremely sweet it's in the middle of a little musky and a slight girly just how I like my fragrance to be it is super long lasting as well and I have got so many compliments after wearing this on every day or on a night out

LUSCIOUS SMOOTHIE CLEAN

I have got this clean smoothie makeup remover on 1st of January and ever since I have got my hands on it I haven't touched the regular chemical remover and honestly the procedure is super super easy you just have to put it under the water and you can just massage it to your face to remove your makeup even waterproof makeup and you can afterwards wash it with an antibacterial hand wash now I have felt a difference in my skin  I have felt that I am not getting as much acne as I used to before when I was using the normal micellar water or wipes and I think I am never going back to them this is a little exfoliating it is super super super soft I love the colour I love how it works and removes every single particle of your makeup easily and lastly one thing added to it is you can use it up to 1000 times which means more than 2 years which is crazy it is extremely pocket friendly with this you just have to get it once and then you have to forget about anything for more than 2 years and it doesn't take any space and it is chemical free so that's why it is beneficial for your skin as well so I think if you are going to buy any product after reading this favorites blog I think you should definitely pick this one and ditch the chemical makeup remover

HAMDARD SAAFI

This stuff is a definite life saver I know it is extremely bitter but is worth it it cleanse blood in your body system which doesn't make you break out as often if you are suffering from acne and plus it does gives you a glowing skin now I seriously found so much difference after incorporating this into my life and I would definitely suggest if you are suffering from acne because I know how negative it can be because there's so many people commenting on your skin and you are also feeling so bad because you always think that's why this is happening to me and so on just trust me and just have it and you are definitely going to feel a lot of difference

DIY TONER

So around the month of February last year or I believe it's a last year in January I started having extreme acne on my face and which got worst in June July and even till November it was not calming down and I got so many pimples I've never had so many pimples in my whole entire life but now I was suffering from it I was suffering from acne and suffering from depression because there's so many people who say so many hard things who might even not know what you are going through but they feel the need to comment on it they feel the need to ask you the questions like why you have acne how come you have any when did you get this and how are you supposed to have acne and things like that which are really some ridiculous questions needless to say and I have faced all of it I was really really depressed I was really not in my zone it was hard for me to go out without makeup or even if I have to go out without makeup I could see the eyes of different people judging me which was definitely really uncomfortable then in December and January I started getting better with my skin I got extremely better with the help of the Saafi and with the help of this toner because saafi prevents from having pimples and this toner prevents me for having Scars for longer I definitely Highly erge you guys to try this diy toner out if you want a acne free skin a better confident skin or even if you want a glowing skin because it is definitely really important so I have a tutorial of this toner on my blog on my Instagram stories but if you want me to do it here officially on the blog definitely DM me and definitely let me know so I can help because I know having acne or having any type of insecurity is definitely not a good thing and I have been there
Now I am definitely not saying that it will work its magic in like a day or two it will definitely take time I am definitely getting better I have got 80% of my acne prevented and I am looking at my face and definitely seeing that how my scars have lighten up right now so definitely keep that in mind that patientce is the key

LO'REAL KERATIN SMOOTH OIL REPLACEMENT

I have been religiously using this after my shampoo instead of a conditional and it is a great hack to save you a lot of time it does make your hair super manageable less frizzy and also I think shiny as well so I really like it how it saves me a lot of time and it is something that you can use even if you don't have your hair damped and it is a multipurpose products that's why I love it

HEXAGON EARRINGS FROM LIMELIGHT

These earrings are a great thing to make your outfit a little more dressy and are very lightweight I really like this shape this style the Bling I love everything about these I got this as a gift on my birthday last year in December so if I have to go on somewhat not so casual but casual something like a Sunday brunch or a tea party you can call it I really like wearing this and I definitely can see that is a different take on a hoop earrings and I can make good use out of them because they are not heavy at all

ANKLET

So I have been really thinking about getting a anklet from a long time but I never got it ever just because I think that it is something different it is something that is not expected from a girl to wear but I always really wanted it and ever since I got it I haven't kept it down I have been wearing it every single day I love the colour I love how it is not Golden not silver not completely black it is the gunmetal type of a colour which I really like and I think it is edgy i think I got this on 6th 7th January and I haven't taken it off since then I have been really enjoying it I think it is giving me a sense that I am a little bit rebellious and I am also liberal which is a funny thing to say but I definitely think of it as that and I am really happy that I got this and I got it in this colour and I love wearing it

So that's all you guys I will really hope you enjoy it that I kept every single thing in this favorites I really hope that you also enjoyed how I kept it extremely real and how I told you guys my real story and I wanted to this year keep myself extremely real on social media not perfect but real I wanted my pictures to say about me about how how good or how bad I am but just to say the reality of what I do what I have and I really hope that I could convey something positive for this blog and for suggestions please please please do let me know if you want to see anything or everything I will try to do more and more blog but I can't promise anything because in the field of fashion designing you get extremely busy but I will definitely 100% try my best to stay positive stay connected and stay real

Until next time

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

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!!!
