Maybelline Express finish 40S Turquoise Green!!!


Get your claws out for the Maybelline Express finish 40S Turquoise Green!!!  




The Finish 40 nail colors promises to go from wet to dry in 40 seconds as well as giving advanced wear without chipping for days. I can definitely agree with both of these promises. The nail varnish had an amazing consistency and, although opaque in just one coat, I applied two and they did dry just as quickly as they promise. 


The streak-free and super-smooth finish maked me fall for the nail enamel collection. The nail paint dries to a creamy glossy finish with slight sheen. I’ve been wearing this polish for 3 days now and the color is still remaining vibrant as when first applied and there has been no chipping. 



The large fluffy brush spreads over the nails painting them evenly in a single swipe. The brush is big enough to cover the nail bed effectively.

Maybelline Express Finish Nail Enamel Turquoise Green is one of the best metallic finishes and a gorgeous peacocky greenish blue nail color I have ever worn. Definitely a must have shade, Highly recommended!

Splurge of the Day: JOYA, Âmes Sœurs Solid Perfume


                             JOYA

Âmes Sœurs Solid Perfume


Joya  outfit
It is a genuine solid slab of waxy perfume that you can finger up like lip balm and apply to your pulse points. This is made from jojoba oil and carnauba wax hand-mixed with undiluted perfume oil that effuses “orange blossom wrapped in incense, smoke and musk.” That scent profile sounds a tic manlier than “perfume,” but this is indeed for a deserving lady.

What you might enjoy is the craft behind the container: a fine porcelain slip cast made by Sarah Cihat has been glazed and painted with 22-karat gold. The brass lids are cut and hammered by metal smith Michael Miller, with each made a custom fit to the porcelain hulls, which are unique in shape with each firing. More gold on the lid (24-karat). Only fifteen of these are available: five at Henri Bendel on Fifth Avenue in N.Y.C., five online and five more come fall.
Get your hand on one if you must!

Luscious Signature Lipstick: Review


Well, this is my first Luscious lipstick after moving to Lahore and I am quite happy with my purchase. I wanted a mid-tone red/orange for the upcoming summer. The SA over the counter there insisted that I should check the Luscious Signature Lipstick

She showed me a few shades out of the 16. I slightly liked this 
particular shade 
 CINNAMON 02 
and was thinking whether I should buy it or not. The SA I guess read my mind and told me that this is their bestseller shade. 
Well, that is something that rarely affects my purchase decisions, but the shade was actually very pretty and I ended up buying it.






CINNAMON 02 
is a gorgeous, soft 
ROSE WITH GOLD SPECKS
. If you check the swatch, you will see that it carries slight orange/coral in it.









The formula is wonderfully creamy and the lipstick glides/applies easily. These are quite pigmented and give almost full coverage in 1-2 swipes. These do give a little shine to the lips since they are creamy but there is no shimmer at all. The staying power is good, as it stays on me for 3-4 hours. It lightens after food and drinks, so I need to reapply.
The packaging is not very impressive, very simple. The plain, black casing reminds me of yester-years lipsticks my mom used to have. The packaging should definitely be re-done for such a wonderful lipstick.


I guess the USP of this range from Luscious is the large number of shades available in it, suiting all age groups and skin tones and of course the creamy formula. It's also price friendly at Rs.675. Available at all leading cosmetics stores.



Overall, I like this lipstick a lot and I would suggest that you should get at least one of these.

I adore J'adore


One thing I am ubber expert on are perfumes! Whether the brand will leave stain, be on for 12 hrs I know...almost.

My utmost favorite J'adore (pronounced Za-DORH) This is a special edition pack I got from Geneva. One bottle is perfume, the other one is perfume oil with glitter.




J'Adore has a rare quality it's very girly and inject a womanly touch at the same time. 

This is definitely a more floral-based scent, and I find it quite strong and obvious as a perfume but I mean this in the best possible way.  The eau de parfum's tenacity is indeed phenomenal and it manages to radiate even from the blotter for a while. Give yourself a spritz in the morning and I assure you it will be still on in the evening as well. I once sprayed it on my jacket and  almost 3 weeks later when I picked it out again I could still smell it.


The bottle echoes figure 8 but I feel it incorporates sophistication as well. I love love the extra puffer perfume bottle you get. Pose with it and feel great any day keke
 

This perfume is definitely for a women who knows what she wants. If you want to feel confident then try this on. It's feminine scent is bound to attract compliments.
