Experts Pick: Summer Shimmer Cubes

Summer's approaching fast and I was going through my stuff to find out the best product I've had over the years. The top eye make up in my collection is the Bronze Shimmer cubes from The Body Shop not just because of its glittery appeal but its ability to add glamor and flatter anyone with any skin-tone. From a summer look, parties to sexy night outs, it is highly versatile. Talk about the cute cube box it comes in with four cute blocks of earthy, complimentary, shimmering colour. It can be applied directly but the brushes from Body Shop do the best job.

The sparkles are just perfect delivering the right amount of shimmer and colour for mixing n' matching together or with other shades apart from this palette. I am going to do a tutorial soon to give your ideas on how you can be creative with these. The best part is that they go with just about anything! 


The Shades: 

01- Honeycomb (perfect golden shade ever)

02- Dark Chocolate (deep brown)

03- Marshmallow (lightest pinkly beige)

04- Choco chip ( most flattering taupe) 

It's a must have for this year to create most of my looks so go ahead and tell me what you think of them. Of course they are available in other shades too but this one makes its way to the top.

Beat the Holiday Bulge Smartly

Holiday dinners and parties can be indulging with all the attractive tables and scrumptious meals which are packed with calories and high satiety values.  It would be highly impractical to stare at the food and not devour those tempting desserts. Trust me, starving yourself can make you eat more and the plan to not eat and wearing tighter clothes doesn’t help at all. Instead of those old tricks you will have to adopt a few practical and healthy ways to deal with the holiday bulge.

 You will be able to eat what you want and enjoy those parties without sacrificing your weight loss goals in four simple ways.   

Look:1 Red Hot Ruffles

This is a simple look with the sexy take on theneutral trend. I have been falling in love with ruffles and wanted tone down the red top with the soft toned black pieces. It would have looked somewhat tedious if it was paired with red top matching red hot heels or a neutral top matching the neutral heels. I can't wait to rock this look.  This look would be great for a date night to a girl’s night out.  The neutral pumps and the fresh water pearls bracelet balances the whole look effortlessly without exaggerating the whole neutral trend. 

Would YOU rock this look? 

Affordability with ALDO

Aldo has always been loyal to me and I've never been able to live

 without Aldo’s accessories for a long time...

  

   ...but stuff has been expensive limiting my purchases so far...

   ...until recently when I came across some really affordable handbags collection and the cute clutches. My recent fall obsession list is filled with items that are affordable and one of the main focus is statement items.

   Just take a look at these handbags...

...aren’t they classy yet statement worthy?

#1 And the Winner is...

   It's somewhat late to announce the winner  but I hadn't forgotten that I had to as per my previous post. I was on a totally topsy-turvy vacation cum trip back home. Celebrated my first anniversary last week and I am back for good; after all there's no place like home. I don't want to make this post long, just want to say I 'm back and....

... the winner is

Editor's Pick ALDO Comfort Crazy

  No girl can ever have enough of sandals. From flats, platforms to high heels, ALDO's collection this year hasn't failed nary an expectation. I love the way they introduced a Colleen, a product development member in the video which improves the customer and manufacturer relationship directly.

How looking good affects your love life

 Looking your best everyday is every woman’s initiative. Many spend hours of time in front of the mirror to get their hair and makeup done. But how does it really affect your love life?      

According to recent studies, men lust after certain type of women. Anthropologist Helen Fisher said, “Men pursue women who exhibit signs of fertility. A glowing complexion, a healthy flush, shiny hair, and large, defined eyes are signs of youth and fecundity.” But that sounds insane right?

Hey ya'll,

     I've been tweeting past week on how I will be giving out my new hot products list this season. Yes Ladies and gentlemen too, brand names not just a list of products!  So you'll be rocking this season hottest looks and skin before spring ends. The products included in my list are self-tested and on many of my clients to check how it looks on different skin types and complexions. Mostly the products are about instant boost of self-confidence and something you'll love the rest of your life. These are well suited for men and women and my clients have been demanding of that "IT" product to combat basic lack of self confidence. Trust me, some top brands high results claiming products didn't quite work so well as these. I simply love and use them myself! You will be extremely satisfied for the change of products for spring.

            To win the list, just
