Bows Bows Everywhere....
....Happy Happy me! :)
Bows are so IN these days. They are everywhere! In all shapes & sizes. I get an adrenaline rush every time I see so much bows. Ya, I might actually do my piling laundry later today.
- Gloves ~ With the winter approaching, I can't help but want some (read: all) of these cute gloves. In the pic, Blugirl (saw these in Grazia Magazine and I fell in lurrrve instantly), other 3 are Accessorize.

He Fancies The Samsung Galaxy TAB 750
This is my entry for Samsung's "It's Time To TAB" Contest hosted by IndiBlogger . Samsung is generously giving away 20 Tablets to 20 winners of this contest.
I have no idea how I'm going to do this! I mean, I have never entered a contest like this before, but I have to do it- one way or another. Why? This is definitely going to sound cheesy, but I'm doing it for love. ["Ah, love." ~ Ross Gellar.] I want to win it for my hubby, because his birthday is coming up. The man is a gadget freak, so I can think of no better gift than this newly launched Samsung Galaxy TAB 750.

Arabic Look
This is a look I created for my 1 month LOTD Challenge (3 looks per week). It would look fabulous on a night out. Shimmer all the way to the brow bone. It looks so gorgeous & glam under yellow light. I'd do this makeup if I were wearing a black & silver Indian saree.

Urban Decay Naked Palette Review, Swatches & EOTDs
I can't believe it took me so long to post this! It's been more than a month since I got this palette (previous post here). I just realized it now! Gosh, how fast does time fly these days??!! I apologize for the delay- to those of you who were waiting for this post.

August Favorites ~ Makeup, Skincare, Haircare Etc
The votes were in, and most of you like Monthly Favorites blog posts. High Five! I like them too! :)
I just wrote August in the title, when in fact I've been using some of these products long before August.

- Spring It! Hair Removing Spring Thing ~ I can't live without this anymore! I use it mainly to remove hair from my upper lip, which I have to do often coz I click a lot of lip photos over here. On camera, even a leetle bit of hair look offensive (shown here). Basically, you hold both ends down into a U-shape, roll the spring on your skin, and straighten it to pull out the hair. Quick & painless- once you get used to it :))
- Clearasil Acne Clearing Scrub ~ This makes my face feel really smooth. The scrub isn't so big and abrasive, so it wouldn't hurt a ripe pimple. I leave it on as a mask too sometimes. However, it doesn't prevent pimples, coz I have a pimple right now when I'd just used it 2-3 days ago. But in it's defense, I'm getting pimples on and off lately.
- Herbal essences None Of Your Frizziness Serum ~ With anti-humidity technology, it says. I love that it smells like mangoes. Slice, to be precise. It does help tame the frizziness I get right after washing.
- Etude House Missing U Hand Cream 'Panda Story'~ I LOVE this panda so much! I should have bought all of them! This one smells peachy and it does not make my hand feel slippery. I'm so afraid to use it coz I don't want it to be finished! (also shown here). Must collect more next time!
- Olay 7-in-1 Total Effects Anti-Ageing Eye Cream ~ I'm liking this a lot. It has tiny gold flecks in it, which are unnoticeable when applied. It's not very greasy/oily. The outer corners of my eyes used to be dry-ish and this has moisturized them to normalcy. Fine lines have also noticeably reduced. You can mix this with your concealer, and you've got yourself a YSL Touche Eclat dupe...ish, I think =D
- MAC Quite Cute Mineralize Blush Giggly ~ Favorite pink blush of the moment (swatches here). It looks so good especially at night under yellow light. I think it could be my favorite pink blush of all time.
- Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Foundation #53 ~ This is almost exactly like the original Healthy Mix Foundation, except it is thinner (more liquid-ey) and less oily. It is easier to blend than the original too. Yes, I do like it better than the original. It smells so fruity & fresh, I could eat it. Coverage- Light to Medium.
Depotting Colorbar Single Eyeshadow
Many months ago, I was depotting my MAC eyeshadows, and didn't stop there. I picked up the only Colorbar eyeshadow I have, and decided to evict it as well. Single eyeshadows disturb me- mentally.
It had a mirror attached to it, which made the process seem next to impossible, but I was to curious to find out the outcome.
Eyeshadow shade ~ Proudly Purple (swatch & review here)
This is what it looked like before. The mirror is attached to the bottom of the eyeshadow

Sleek Saturday LOTD
I know Saturday is gone here, but I'm on UK time specially for this post. I was invited by the lovely Liloo to join her in her Sleek Saturday Series. The main purpose of the series is to encourage the use of Sleek i-divine palettes- mainly the colors you don't use enough. I thought it's a fantastic idea! I hardly use the only Sleek palette I have- Paraguaya Palette, so I was more than happy to participate.
I created a very simple look....

Anniversary, Forever New Dress & Bow Shoes
Do you have a really nice girlie dress or top you cannot wear because it's too revealing? For me, it's this dress. It's the most feminine dress I have & I'm in love with the creme de menthe color, but it is very low in the front + it's made like a corset, so it pushes up the twins up too much, like 'Woah!' If you want to go from A to C, this is the type of neckline you should look for.
I wore it on our 4th wedding anniversary, 2 days back. We were staying in, so I wore it for the first time since I bought it- maybe 2 years ago! =\
I don't want the moral police to come get me, so I thought of clever ways to cover what's inappropriate ;)
