[EOTD] using Coastal Scents 26 Shadow Blush Combo Palette

I have had this Coastal Scents 26 Shadow Blush Combo palette for a while now.But for some reason it wasn't getting much love from me , so i decided to do a quick look using only 2 eyeshadow from the palette. 




lid - Used the gold from the top row, third from the left, also used same shade on the lower lashline and blended with the black pencil liner .
crease - Cranberry shade from the third row , third from the right
Contour - Matt black from the Sleek I-Divine palette Strom

I finished the look with some falsies and my favorite gel eyeliner from maybelline ,Lasting drama gel eyeliner in black.












I really liked how it turned out , very autumn-ish :)

*ignore the eyelash glue peeking through in some photos


Do you like coastal scents palettes ? Do yo like the look i created ?  Do you like the EOTD posts?

Golden Rose Perfect Shine Lipstick #219 - My Favorite Nude Lipstick

Golden Rose Perfect Shine Lipstick #219 



What it is:

This lipstick is easily applicable with a soft and velvety texture and moisturizes your lips with its content of Vitamin A & E. That new series is available in many colors, from pink to red, beige to orange... Their matte or pearly effect will definitely keep your lips shiny all day long

I bought this lipstick almost a month ago and i instantly fell in love with the shade, texture and pigmentation. Its the perfect Peachy nude shade which glides on lips.  Its really moisturizing , and have a sheen /glossy finish, so you don't a gloss over it. It has the same texture like Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick minus the smell and somehow like luscious lipsticks but better formula and price. It does have some taste , which i dont like , but it was the only con.

Vasanti Micronized Silky Blush in Swiss Alps - Review Photos & Swatches

Swiss Alps - I want to go see the Swiss Alps right now , well of course i cant go right now as i have like million other reviews to do , and like i am going to Lahore in few days to meet my nephew and sister who are coming from London so Yes ! Swiss Alps - I want to go see the Swiss Alps some day soon :) But meanwhile i can enjoy Vasanti Micronized Silky Blush - Swiss Alps .



Beautiful washes of ultra-fine colour for the cheeks. Soft, subtle shades enhance and add a radiant glow.

Price - $15

Shades :
Comes in 6 beautiful shades to complement any skin tones
  • Andes
  • Himalaya 
  • Sayan
  • Rockies
  • Everst
  • and Swiss alps 

Vasanti Micronized Silky Blush in Swiss Alps is  perfect Plum shade with accents of golden shimmer. It not only gives the beautiful flush to the cheeks but also subtly
highlights them.
Swiss Alps roses up my cheeks with the pretty plum-ish pink hue and gives them a gold shimmer. he shimmer is very finely milled and turns into a beautiful gold highlight on cheeks.
It such a gorgeous, sophisticated blush with very faint gold shimmers, which makes it great not only for colder days but the shimmer in it will works well for summery glow. The shimmer gives a glow rather then a glittery effect.



When i looked at the gold shimmer, I knew it will not annoy me a bit, because they are very light and fine and after awhile they seem to disappear. . I use it on the apples of my cheek for the pop of color and sometimes i use it under my cheekbone for more defined look. The application is smooth and easy. Vasanti Micronized Silky Blush in Swiss Alps is a pigmented blush , you dont need to layer it up. 

The below swatches are only two swipes of the blush, you can see the subtle golden sheen.




The packaging is fantastic. It looks classy and sleek  . It feels classy . It comes in a sturdy silver shiny compact with a mirror. The blush size is smaller than i expected and the pan is also bit difficult to work with if you use a big blush brush.


Overall a beautiful flattering plum that will suit any skin tone , i will highly recommend this to medium to dark skin tones.The blush is so smooth and finely milled .

Available in select Shoppers Drug Mart & Rexall Pharma Plus locations, online at www.amazon.com , www.amazon.co.uk & www.vasanticosmetics.com   .

The Nature's Co -Irish Moss Sugar Body Scrub [Review]

Sugar scrubs in general are gentler than salt scrubs and by the act of scrubbing in a circular motion does increase circulation. Exfoliating can make your skin feel luxurious.


What it is :

 
For dry Skin To get beautiful, glowing skin, all you have to do is scrub. Irish Moss Sugar Body Scrub contains Brown Sugar which is a natural exfoliant and is also rich in Irish Moss extract that has emollient, soothing & nourishing properties. In the shower or bath, spread the scrub over your entire body. Rub into skin to exfoliate and then rinse well. It will leave you feeling smooth all over and the refreshing fragrance of Irish Moss will linger on. Recommended usage -1 to 2 times a week.



I got this almost 2-3 weeks ago and i have been using it atleast once a week. I wish i could use it 2-3 times a week because of the way it smells so clean and refreshing. Amazing. 
You would be shocked to know that i was one of those people who usually didnt exfoliate their bodies couple of years ago. But now i know the benefits of exfoliating face and body. anyways back to the review , The Nature's Co -Irish Moss Sugar Body Scrub  comes in a huge 200ml jar. It will last you for a while.  The sugar crystals are pale green and as chunky as normal sugar can be. The sugar is soaked in oil .The scrub is super easy to use and works effectively to remove dulling dead skin cells.



This scrub has a pleasant, refreshing , and incredible scent,It totally wakes you up. Its a sugar scrub so the texture is gritty . Its thick consistency which makes it easy to work with.I usually scoop some into my palm,then spread it and rub in circular motions all over on my body, and then rinse.I always, always moisturize after scrubbing . The sugar crystals can be coarse so make sure to exfoliate gently. My skin was left feeling absolutely soft and smooth after using this scrub, the combination of oils and sugar is perfect .

Over all The Nature's Co -Irish Moss Sugar  Body Scrub is worth picking up you like refreshing , pleasant smell, soft skin and will set you back Indian rs 1295/- , which is a tad pricey but you are getting a huge tub. If you have  sensitive skin or just likes something that’s gentle I would not recommend this to you.
