It's called 'Honeydew Melon', if I Google searched correctly.
Now I'm wishing for a velour tracksuit set in this exact colour. I might have to call H&M.
*M A N I F E S T I N G*
W For Woman, the Indian wear brand,have launched their own nail polish & cosmetics line in select stores. I picked up these 2 nail polishes for Diwali.
Green is named, Breeze
Silver glitter is named, Dazzle
Their nail polish manufacturer is the same as Colorbar's, btw. I'd say the quality is almost the same too.
Got this flat lay to a C- (satisfactory minus) after 45 clicks & just when the camera battery was running out, by the way.
If you see what's bothering me about the arrangement now that I'm viewing it on a bigger screen, then you've also concluded that it's a murder, not a suicide. Wait, don't ask me to elaborate on that yet. I'm doing my own CBI investigation based on the countless & rather contradicting "Breaking News" on my Instagram explore.
I suddenly came up with this post, even though I have a number of long overdue ones in my drafts:
Life's been more exciting than any vacation I've ever been on.
Not necessarily good or perfect, and I fall down a lot, but when I'm up & my antennas aren't disrupted (and I dress up a bit), it's something else.
Hot & intense, unpredictable & 'Romance Novel-esque' ;)
(This is gonna prick some people..... *ahem*)
It's true what they say, life really does begin in your late 30's, because that's when you know, without a shadow of a doubt, who you really are & who/what you WANT.
These days, my soul screams for the things it craves at 3:55 am.
Either that, or Ziizayne has kicked me in his sleep again.
As some of you know, my birthday happened too soon again, and I am officially 38 years old now.
I know I'm 3 weeks late with my mandatory birthday post & it's been sitting idly in my drafts since.
So, for all of you waiting to see a Birthday Haul....
Aside from my entire outfit here, I collected some things before my birthday:
Colorbar launched 1001 new nail polishes recently & I'm going C-R-A-Z-Y!
I'm having trouble picking shades, even though the New U stores I went to didn't stock all 1001 shades.
With Keratin & Almond Oil, and the formula is paraben-free.
I picked up 2 shades one time, then I went back to get more...but then I didn't have enough time to pick carefully. So I managed to pick only 3 more.
Sister's Secret #607 - Lilac
Pretty Face #822 ~ Rose pink
Lemonade # 1080 ~ Lemon yellow
Invisible #835 ~ Cool Nude
Salt & Pepper #1302Arteffects ~ Baby blue with navy flecks
I'd already worn Sister's Secret and Salt & Pepper, and they're both great! The consistency is just right, nice brush, streak-free application & they don't chip easily either.
I wanna be in a room with ALL 1001 shades, and pick 20 more! =D
Price: Rs.199
(THANK YOU, Colorbar! For keeping it under 200 bucks.)
Maybelline Fit Me Loose Finishing Powder Light/Medium ~ Used it only once & I like it. But I think I should have gotten the lighter shade. I might & then mix them.
Price: Rs.695
Maybelline Master Chrome Molten Rose Gold ~ Love it!
Price: Rs.550
Maybelline Color Sensational Shaping Lip Liner 105 Nude Whisper ~ For the price, I'm digging it! Definitely getting more shades.
Price: Rs.350
Revlon Summer Florals Nail Enamel 564 Zinnia (Yellow)
Revlon Summer Florals Nail Enamel 567 Morning Glory (Blue)
Revlon Summer Florals Nail Enamel 505 Enchanted ~ FREE with the 2
Price: Rs.225, each.
Forever New Sutton Diamante & Filigree 3 Piece Rose Gold Necklace Set.
Price: Rs.1400 Rs.840 on Black Friday SALE.
So, Rs.280 each isn't bad, no? =D

Trying this thing where I write short & quick caption-like posts just like on myInstagram, before I have to do something else... and then nothing! - for everyone asking me to blog regularly here again.
Don't you just hate it when your nail polish starts to chip off only at the tips after, like, a day? For me, it happens more often, because I use that stainless steel scrubber to wash some dishes & the kitchen sink - so that means my right hand nails go first, pfft!
Applying hard-to-remove glitter nail polish at the tips has solved that problem....
I always get weird looks from the counter people at Lifestyle when I'm buying makeup. I don't know why. Maybe I appear too eager, maybe I walk from counter to counter a bit too crazily - sometimes back & forth to "compare", maybe I look too flustered, maybe I take too long to decide which shade I want, maybe I move to another counter while they are bent over those bottom cabinets looking for a product I asked for (they come back up & hey, where'd she go?!) maybe I ask "New launch? New Launch?" like a vendor in a train - "Bhel puri? Bhel puri?"
Okay, okay, I'll control myself next time. Before I set foot in the beauty floor, I'll coach myself first:
"Be cool. Breathe. Neutral facial expression. Walk graciously. Duchess Of Cambridge....."
First counter - Maybelline!
The Magnum Barbie Mascara ~ This is similar to The Falsies Mascar, but with a slightly more slender brush & the formula is more packed with fibres. First Impression: Could clump & smudge easily, but if you can handle that like a meticulous woman, false lash kind of volume & length!
Price: Rs.399
Color Sensational 3D Eyeshadow Palette in Rose Quartz Pink ~ A little palette of 5 eyeshadows, in which there is a top coat shimmer eyeshadow. Available in 4 shades.
Price:Rs.575
Color Show Big Apple Reds Nail Paints ~ A collection of 4 red shades. I picked up R2 Big Apple Red.
Price: Rs.145
Fit Me Concealer in #20 Sand ~ This is a repurchase. I'd got the first one in the same shade from UK, and they are both the same.
Price: Rs.500
Color Show 3D Eyeshadow Palette in Rose Quartz Pink
Hi, Everyone! Happy happy New Year to each and everyone of you! Hugs & kisses xx <3 p="">
So late, I know, but I was rarely home these last few weeks. My brother and his family were staying over, and we were always out and about.
I am so very happy 2015 is gone, because it was the worst year of my life. I went through some things that weren't good for me, and I had somehow lost myself. Okay, enough of that. Closed book.
This year feels different already. Another chance to start over, and live the life I want to live.
But it started off with a weird, life-threatening, surreal incident.....
