Another Bourjois Haul =)
Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation #53
So Delicate Lip Cream ~ Rose Poudre 51 (Rs.575)
I already had 3 of these and I love them so much. When I swatched Rose Poudre at the store, I couldn't believe I chose Rose Veloute (which looks a little dull on me) over it the first time.

Bourjois Mineral Matte Mousse Foundation Review + Face Swatch
Love it!!! It blends like a dream and lasts all day without caking and my face didn't get oily even after hours and hours. It is a matte finish but my skin doesn't feel dry at all.
It has medium coverage. It covers blemishes but not completely, it just blurs them in a way. The mousse texture feels so fluffy that even if you pile this on it won't look like you did, because it's so light and easy to blend. Amazing!
I think this will suit dry skin as well, because as I said before, it's not drying. My skin type is Combination/Dry (according to Clinique) and I do tend to get dry patches here and there, so I would recommend it to dry-skinned people.
I like it much much better than my MUFE HD Foundation

Cooling Sunscreen ~ Lotus Herbals Anti-tan Cooling Sunscreen SPF 30
What it is:
Safe Sun Absolute anti-tan gel is a medium intensity cooling sunscreen gel especially formulated for oily & combination skin. It especially protects against the long wavelength UVA rays that are the primary cause of skin darkening and tanning. It has the soothing goodness of Calendula and Vanilla extracts.
UVA: PA++

Indian Skin tones
The first thing you should know is that skin tones are divided into 3 categories: Cool, Neutral and Warm.
Cool-- Veins on underside of wrist are more blue, look better in silver jewelry, look great in white and cool colors.
Neutral-- Veins are neither totally green nor blue, look good in both silver and gold jewelry, and both warm and cool colors.
Warm-- Veins are green, look good in gold jewelry, look great in cream color.
Now, here's my classification of Indian skin tones, fully knowing I might totally miss the bull's eye.
