Airbrush Makeup & Hairstyles By Lakmé Studio + Backstage Photos Day-3 Lakmé Fashion Week

I really liked the looks on Day 3 Lakmé Fashion Week. Soft smokey peach eyes, peachy lips, sleek hair-wrapped-around ponytails, and straight shiny locks. The airbrush makeup looked fantastic! See for yourself....

The result. So flawless, right?

Lakmé Studio Gave Me Model Hair & Tuxedo Nails

On Day-3 of Lakmé Fashion Week, I got to try out Lakmé Studio's 'Ultimate Blow Dry'. It was amazing, especially since I hardly spend time on styling my hair most times. Take a look at the transformation......

Weird but cute, no?

Lakmé Studio At Lakmé Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2012 Day-1 Photos & My OOTD


My first day at Lakmé Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2012 felt so surreal. It was so busy! I went at around 4 PM, and left at 7 PM. My feet hurt & I couldn't feel them anymore coz I stuffed my shoes so tightly, so my heels wont slip out when I walk, that the blood didn't flow to my toes =D. But it was a good 1st experience, I met some wonderful people & clicked a lot of photos!

Lakmé Studio at Talent Box, is filled with chicas getting free make-overs by the team. They do everything
beauty related:
  • Makeup
  • Airbrush Make-up
  • Nail Art
  • Hair Styling ~ Anything without water: Blowdry, Ironing, Curling, etc.

I'm Lakmé Studio's Official Blogger at Lakmé Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2012


I will be the Official Blogger for Lakmé Studio/Salon at the Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2012 Talent Box, from 2nd - 6th March, 2012, at Grand Hyatt Mumbai.

I feel so honored & treasure this baby (blog) a bit more now. Lakmé Studio is sponsoring everything- my plane tickets & hotel. I'll be staying at Grand Hyatt, where LFW is held. Yippee...I'm so happy that I just have to take a lift down & not have to deal with cab drivers everyday.

I'm excited to see what goes on at LFW,  looking forward to finally meet the kind people whom I've been interacting with for a long long time via emails, and  make-up & beauty enthusiast in me is thrilled to see all the fab looks that'll be created by Lakmé Studio Experts.

During that time, I'll be blogging from there & share what's happening & photos with you guys everyday.

But right now, "Official Blogger" is going M-A-D!
  • I have to make up my mind which final 5 'Fashion Week Appropriate' outfits to pack. More difficult when I'll have to dress up out of a suitcase.
  • I don't have the shoes I want to wear. You know no store sells my size. I have to make do with old blahs & uncomfortables.Steve Madden, Aldo, Charles & Keith aren't empathetic shoe brands, I tell you.
  • I'm trying my best to fully cure my flu NOW (steam inhalations, Vit-C, pills....green tea, ugh)
  • My skin is in bad condition- 4 scarry pimples on cheek & chin. Of course they had to appear when they aren't supposed to, no? =\
  • Aaah!

But I have to, can't wait to, be there!

I'll be meeting people I've never met before, so please wish me luck! I don't want to be a nervous wreck....or trip in my uncomfortable shoes =D

Any of you attending LFW, btw? Maybe we'll meet? :)

Maybelline Clear Glow BB Cream & Clear Glow Compact Powder Review

Have you seen how Maybelline India advertised the Clear Glow BB Cream?
"The answer to WTF"
First time I saw it, I thought it means something else. You know what. Of course, it didn't make any sense.
But they actually mean "Women Take Forever". The answer to women take forever.
I think it's pretty clever. 
About Maybelline BB Cream: 
They decided to call it  Bright Benefit cream, instead of Blemish Balm. Claims to provide 8 benefits: 
  • Instantly brightens : Brightens skin to one tone lighter.
  • Protects with SPF 21/ PA+++ : Has a smooth, light & non-greasy texture.
  • Evens tone : Hides imperfections & corrects uneven skin tone.
  • Hydrates : Moisturises all day(8 hours).
  • Conceals : Perfectly conceals flaws, blemishes & redness.
  • Smoothes : Instantly makes skin softer & smoother.
  • Mattifies : Controls shine all day.
  • Freshens : Resists sweat & sebum for 5 hours.
Available in 3 shades: Nude, Radiance, Natural.

Sunsilk Keratinology Products From MedplusBeauty.Com


This is kind of a review of MedPlus Beauty, an online beauty store. I ordered Sunsilk Keratinology Sun Kissed Colour Therapy Shampoo & Sun Kissed Colour Therapy Conditioner. I saw them at my supermarket last week & was so so tempted, but I decided to check online first- coz maybe I would get them cheaper. And yes, I was right.
They both cost Rs.200 each, but MedPlus offers a 15% discount on Sunsilk Keratinology, so Rs.170 bucks each. You save 60 bucks (woohoo.... lol).

Ordered on: 23rd Feb '12
Received on: 27th Feb '12

[To tell you the truth, I almost cancelled my order because I didn't get a shipment confirmation email, and I thought they would take too long to deliver. I emailed to cancel, but they said I would receive them today, which I did.]

In the end, I'm happy with my first shopping experience with MedPlus Beauty.

The products were packed in a big box with some thermocol, and both were wrapped in bubble wrap.
