Gossip Girl Inspired Holiday Look

In Gossip Girl 'Rhodes To Perdition', everybody was sporting glitter liners- from Charlie to Lily to Cece, and I absolutely loved the looks! They all looked so bling & fabulous. 

Favorite line from the episode:

"No one can touch me anymore. I'm a Rhodes now." ~ Charlie.

Glitter liners are THE hottest things this season, ladies! Grab yourself some- preferably in gold & bronze shades. I don't have any other glitter eyeliner except for a yellow one- Nyx Candy Glitter Eyeliner in Hot Yellow (which is actually a freebie, but see how it's there for me just when I need it the most? :)) , so it'll have to do. How I wish I had the other bronzy shade French Silk

Sigma Precision Brushes & Round Top Kabuki: Photos

I hauled some brushes from Sigma  this month- Precision Brushes & Round Top Kabuki. I'm in love with the soft synthetic HD Fibers, which they are made of. I wish I had a pillow made of them....oooh....!

• Precision Tapered P86

• Precision Round P82

• Precision Flat P80

These Precision Brushes are so cute! I got all of them except the Precision Angled P84. I want to use these with my concealers, precise contouring, buffing small areas/corners & to apply some powder products too.

Christmas Shopping At Forever New + OOTD

The first one is a dress I've been drooling over since it was launched with the Age of Innocence Collection (Limited Edition). It was packed in a pink box tied with white organza ribbon. It's special.

Let's open it.....

Madeleine One Shoulder Bow Dress Peach Love, Rs.8800 ~ Damn this is overpriced! It costs double in India, btw. BUT I tried it on ad almost cried. I want to be buried in it! So obviously I had to buy it and give up some other stuff on my Christmas wishlist.

Pond's Age Miracle Advanced Resurfacing Microdermabrasion Kit ~ WOW!

Are you ready to see the results? Doesn't matter coz I'm going to show anyway. I couldn't wait! I consider this post a priority because it could change somebody's life. 

About Pond's Age Miracle Advanced Resurfacing  Microdermabrasion Kit:

Microdermabrasion is one of the most effective professional anti-ageing skin care treatments, commonly recommended by dermatologists and salon professionals which gently re-surfaces or ‘polishes’ the surface of the skin. Pond’s Institute has launched the first at-home Microdermabrasion Treatment. It helps to minimize the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and age spots. With special micro crystals for effective skin resurfacing, it results to renewed and brightened skin. The kit contains 3 things:

• Polishing Cream is a unique softening cream blended with real micro crystals that expertly resurfaces and refines skin to extra smoothness and brightness.

• Post-Treatment Glow Enhancer is enriched with vitamins and skin optical enhancers that give the skin the right post treatment nourishment- leaving it supple and radiant.

• Sponge applicator is specially designed to expertly spread the cream with micro crystals across the skin’s surface, effectively allowing polishing cream to remove the uppermost layer of dead skin. The holder is designed to fit the palm comfortably.

Inglot Eye Brushes: 10S & 80 HP Review

I'm am currently ob-sessssed with makeup brushes. I keep wanting MORE! There's always a type of brush I think I need. There's even a type I want that is not in the market yet. 

So I got these 2 Inglot brushes a couple months back and it's time I share my thoughts on them.
