Sunscreen

During summers we need to take care of our skin a little more than usual.One of the most essential product for summers has to be a sunscreen.

Sunscreen protects our skin from

• the harmful UV radiations that are emitted from the sun. 
• It helps in slowing down the process of ageing and wrinkle development.

Thermal Spring Water

Apart from applying sunscreen it is necessary to carry Thermal Spring Water or even Rose water. Just when you feel your face a little dry and irritating just spray some rose water or the thermal water onto your face and it instantly refreshes your face.

Make-up Remover

For the people who apply makeup it is necessary that you take off entire makeup with any non drying remover. One of the best makeup remover we all can use is the Baby Oil (make sure to use a little as it can make your face oily).
Baby oil helps in removing the makeup and also doesn't dry your skin.

And one of the most important thing to do in summers is to have a lot of water so that

• it prevents dehydration. 
• It also helps in giving your skin a little glow.

Those are all the summer essentials we need to have a happy summer.
Hope you liked it.

TRADITIONAL INDIAN SAREE

Hello lovelies,
Today I'd be sharing with you one of my favorite outfit and that's the SARI.
Sari is a piece of clothing that is six inches long. At times it gets a little difficult to handle, but it's the best to flaunt the curves.
So here's the look. I hope you enjoy.

I've worn it to my college for the TRADITIONAL DAY we had. Now every year my college celebrates Pongal (An Indian festival) and that day the entire college comes all dressed in our traditional outfits. And here's what I wore.

I chose an Orange and Navy blue saree. I wanted a very simple saree with no heavy work and this saree was so simple and easy to carry.

The saree had no work it was really a simple plain saree with a hint of border. The material is georgette. And the best part of this material is it literally hugs your body and gives that perfect shape and figure. (Just saying).

Keeping the outfit simple, I've worn some matching orange and blue bangles with a hint of gold glitter,

As the sari was simple I went with little mirror work on the blouse. The blouse was a standout to the entire outfit and made it look effortless.

That's all that I've done. Lastly the footwear I wore he Gold Heels and my day was more beautiful than ever.

DECEMBER FAVORTIES-2016

Hello lovelies,
It is that time of the month again where I share with with you all my favorites form the month of December 2016.
We can stay in touch.All the links are down below. Make sure to check me out there.

December 2016 has been a pretty busy month I had a lot of parties to attend and not forgetting Christmas and New year parties. Those were bang on. So here are all of my favorites.

Favorite Shower Gel Of December

The shower gel from NYKAA (French Lavender) is such an amazing shower gel. It has an amazing scent that lingers all day long and it is very mild and doesn't act harsh on my body. And it is on a little thicker side so you need really need a lot to waste. The best of shower gel I've tried so far.

Favorite Moisturizer Of December

During the winter season my skin tends to get more on the drier side and the Body Milk by NIVEA is absolutely amazing to moisturize my body and give that extra nourishment my body needs during this winters. This moisturizer has the typical NIVEA scent to it and it locks in the moisture for the whole day.

Favorite Face Cream Of December

The cold season sort of makes my skin a lot flaky and dry and my face also tends to get a lot more dry and lifeless. In order to moisturize my skin during December  I started using the HIMALAYA HERBALS Fairness Cream. This cream has saffron extracts which helps in moisturizing as well as reducing the under eye circles.
This cream so far has shown some really amazing results.

Favorite Mascara Of December

Party season it was and all I wanted was long voluminous lashes. I personally don't like using the black mascara because  I can't keep my hands off my face and I definitely would smudge my mascara all over my face so the CLEAR MASCARA by COVER GIRL has been a savoir to my life. This mascara instantly lengthens my lashes and a bonus it is clear so no smudging problems.

Favorite Lipstick Of December

I'm a person who loves bold red lips and throughout the month of December I was just using the ELLE 18 Color pop lipsticks in ROSY BLUSH. It is a very bright red and gives the exact amount of transfer that pops your look. Absolutely loved this lipstick

Travel Favorites Of December

Throughout the month of December  I did a little bit of travelling and also vlogging the travel. If you've not seen my travel vlog, it is down below check it out and let me know how you liked it.

Just to make vlogging a lot more easy I was using a GORILLA POD i bought from Amazon. It works really well.

Those are all my favorites for the month of December.

I hope you liked it. Make sure to check out the video to know more of my Favorites.

SKINCARE RESOLUTIONS FOR 2017

Hello Lovelies,
I hope you had an amazing start for the year of 2017.As 2017 already started and we have come back to the same square of taking some New Year's resolutions.

Yes, Of course it's resolution time.But, this time I've also taken some SKINCARE RESOLUTIONS just to make me skin feel more beautiful than it is.

We can keep in touch.

Here are a list of SKINCARE RESOLUTIONS I have started using in my daily routine.

FACE WASH

The first thing I do early in the morning (after brushing my teeth though ;) ) is to cleanse my face. Having a good face wash helps not only in cleansing the face, but also helps in giving that fresh feels in the morning.
The face wash I've been using and the one that marks it's place in my daily routine is the LOTUS HERBALS TeaTree FaceWash. This face wash is absolutely amazing and does wonders.Also I've written a complete blog post about this product and I'd leave a link down below.Make sure to check it out for more information.

Know more All about the LOTUS HERBALS FACEWASH

SHOWER GEL

Once the face cleansing is done,it's time for some body cleansing. I personally prefer using shower gel rather than soaps. But for people who use soaps one thing that needs to be checked is that the soap must be acting very mild on the skin rather than harsh.
Shower gels act very mild with a minimum amount of exfoliation that is required for the body and hence I prefer using shower gel. And the shower gel I've been using is the one from NIVEA and also the one from NYKAA both these shower gels have a very mild exfoliation and don't irritate the skin.

MOISTURIZER

Now that I'm done having my bath, the next thing I do is to moisturize my body with some rich body milk(for winters I make sure my moisturizer has richness). The NOURISHING BODY MILK FROM NIVEA is amazing for the winter seasons and also if you have dry skin then this Body Milk is a must to try. It moisturizes the skin very well and locks it for the entire day.

And once I'm done with moisturizing I just get ready and go about my day.

MAKEUP REMOVAL

Pretty much it is at the end of the day. And for removing my makeup I prefer using a Cleansing Milk rather than a Makeup Remover. I feel that Cleansing Milk also provide a little moisturizing feel to the skin with removing the makeup. The HIMALAYA HERBALS Cleansing Milk is so far the best.

Now for the face wash it is pretty much the same face wash I use in the morning. The one from LOTUS HERBALS.

TONING

Toning is a step I have to keep reminding myself to use. But eventually I've started feeling my skin a little more smoother. And the toner I use is the VOTRE REFINING TONER.

NIGHT CREAM

After toning the next and the last thing I do to my skin is to moisturize it well. And for the night cream I use the HIMALAYA HERBALS Revitalizing Night Cream. Also about this cream  I can rave all day and all night. This cream is the best as a night cream.

You can see more of it. Here in the video down below.

And that's all for the Skincare resolutions I've taking in 2017. I hope it helped in some way or the other. Also let me know what skincare resolutions did you take?
