L.A. Girl Pro BB Cream Review & Swatches

BB Creams have been big on the Beauty Scene for a while. The concept of BB cream is great since they are promoted as an all-in-one facial cosmetic product to replace serum, moisturizer, primer, foundation and sunblock. Who wouldn’t want skin care and some coverage in one product. When they initially launched in India I tried out the BB creams from Keihl’s and Maybelline but was not impressed. Fast forward to now and I am happy to say  L.A Girl is changing my perspective.

That Incredible Retraction !

Good makeup needs good tools! To design a  good tool one needs extensive insight into the target audience and the ultimate result expected. Here is where Samantha and Nicola Chapman come in, they are professional makeup artists and Real Techniques (RT) is their brainchild. In my opinion RT is one of the most reliable and economical brand that makes good quality makeup brushes and importantly, it is available in India.

Today I am reviewing the Real Techniques: Retractable Kabuki Brush. For the longest time I had been looking for a good multi purpose brush and after watching so many videos raving about this one I ordered it from Amazon.  I have been using this for close to a year.

Bioderma Sensibio H2O – Lazy Girl’s Makeup Remover!

In my teen years when I was discovering makeup, (by that I mean secretly trying on stuff seen on Mom’s dressing table) loads of time was spent at the sink scrubbing and rubbing stuff off using soap & water. The reddened eyes were a clear giveaway that I had been into mom’s stuff. Gradually I realized there are easier and more efficient ways to remove makeup.

How it all started !

A year ago, Ankita from Corallista.com invited her readers to write a guest post. I have been following her blog since ages and was thrilled to hear this news ! I burnt midnight oil and wrote a piece but was plagued by self doubt and almost didn’t send it ! I was beyond the moon when she replied saying she liked my writing style. Its amazing how a few kind words from the folks you look up-to can motivate you! Now a year later, here I am setting up my own blog !
