Summer Blushing!

Summer is all about fresh and natural makeup. I personally feel that the blush is one product which is highly undervalued in the makeup routine. A blush not only adds colour to our faces, it is also a great product to make the face look more defined and sculpted if applied properly.

The Summer Edit

Summer is upon us in its full glory making us and our makeup routines completely miserable. I have been trying to avoid makeup because it tends to become a hot mess as soon as you step outside but there are days where it is absolutely impossible to avoid it. On those days, there are some products which have shone and have managed to withstand the heat. Hence, I decided to compile a blogpost on those products for you all. Here goes.

Monthly Favourites - October & November

Can't believe its December already. This year literally flew by and now we are progressing into 2017. Been quite a ride I must say but let's leave that for another blogpost. December is one of my favourite months because the cooler weather means that the makeup stays intact. Plus, the winter palette is more glam than the Spring/Summer palettes. And not to forget, it is the season of weddings, festivities and family get-togethers which means that I can dress up to my heart's content! Lets move onto my favourites for the past 2 months.

10 Beauty Products worth the Splurge!

There are some products which despite the price tag are worth every penny. So I decided to do a round-up of all the products which in my opinion are worth the splurge.

Monthly Favourites - August & September

Can't believe its October already! The way the months are flying by is a little overwhelming, if not scary at the same time. But I'm looking forward to the Fall and Winter season because the summers here in Pakistan have been long and tough. Anywho, rounded up a list of my most used products from the past few months. These products have also been my most used at all the countless weddings I have attended in the past few weeks.

Favourite Highlighters

I confess that I have become a highlighter junkie! I really can't help myself when I see a new highlighter because I need then to get the 100-watt glow which I absolutely love. Many people have asked me time and time again about my favourite highlighter so I decided to write on my top 3 highlighters without which I cannot live!

January and February Favourites!

Hello! So its time for my monthly favourites which I post every 2 months because I think it takes me time to switch around products. Anyways, here they are!

Top 15 of 2015!

2015 was the year of makeup for me! I splurged and bought more things than I could ever use. But at the same time I did part with some of my unused makeup and things which I had grown out of. Of course there are somethings which I used (and maybe loved) more than others and here's my top 15 picks from the year 2015!

MAC Pro Longwear Concealer in NW 20 - Review

Battling dark circles and having a brighter under eye has become my makeup goal and while I should be concentrating on fixing this problem by eating better and sleeping like a normal person, I'd rather use the weapons of makeup to try and fix this. Ever since I discovered the power of a concealer, there is rarely a day that I go without it and I have quite a variety of concealers in my collection from high-end to drugstore. After reading rave reviews on the MAC Pro Longwear Concealer, I decided that I needed to get my hands on this asap. I landed at Al Fatah at Lahore only to discover that they did not have NC 20 available. But of course the makeup craving got the better of me and 10 minutes later I walked out with NW 25.

MAC Retro Matte Lipsticks - Review

I have always stopped myself from jumping on the MAC bandwagon in fear that I will get addicted. And needless to say, my fears were justified because I ended up buying not one, but two MAC lipsticks within a week. I was searching for MAC lipstick shades for my sister, whose birthday was coming up and when I saw All Fired Up, I couldn't help but go crazy. It was such a beautiful and wearable shade and I planned to get my hands on it as soon as possible. And with that, All Fired up entered my life. But that was not the stop for me and on my next trip to Al-Fatah, I ended up buying Relentlessly Red after which I became broke, else I am pretty sure I would have bought another lipstick and as I write this review, the craving for another Mac Lipstick is kicking in and I am contemplating getting Taupe or Kinda Sexy. Ufff, there is no stopping me! *hits head in wall* I think before I start googling more shades, I should move onto the review.

June Favourites!

Hello hello! Its been a while since I last posted a favourites post; and frankly speaking, I just felt like doing a favourites post. Haha. Anyways, with the summer in full form, there are certain things I absolutely cannot live without. Here goes my summer/June favourites.

MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle - Review

No makeup lover's highlighter collection is complete without MAC's Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle. I had been waiting patiently to add this to my collection and my birthday seemed to be the perfect opportunity to splurge on this. Read on to find out what makes this product a cult favourite.

Birthday Haul!

As a makeup addict, its not like I don't haul all year round, but a birthday is something special so I gave into my urge to splurge and bought a lot of what had been on wishlist. Although my birthday was in mid-January, all the stuff finally arrived now after patiently waiting for like forever. I think I will now be going on a ban for now. Here's my treat for the year!
