MeNow Eyebrow Pencil

This is my latest discovery, MeNow Eyebrow Pencil. It costs just Rs. 10 (May be ranges from Rs. 10 to Rs. 50). Still, really affordable and inexpensive. There was only choice of black shade for me, so I purchased black shade as no other shades were available at the time I went to the store. So, let’s discuss about packaging, pigmentation, available shades, pros and cons about this Eyebrow Pencil.

Packaging

It is purple pencil, where M.n is printed in white, below that menow is printed in white, below that Perfect Eyebrow Pencil and at last Waterproof and LongLasting has been printed in white. It has black color at the ending of the pencil depicting black shade of eyebrow pencil and the shade number written on that ending part. There are shade numbers and no shade names which are mentioned like 001, 002, 003, etc. The cap of the pencil is also purple in color with a little comb which helps to shape our eyebrows.

Pigmentation

It is highly pigmented pencil. One swipe is enough.

Shades

There are various shades available like brown, black, etc. But there are shade numbers mentioned on the pencil as said above like 001, 002, 003, etc. As much as I know there are 4-5 shades available. 

Price

Rs. 10 for 1.3 grams

Pros

1.       It is affordable and inexpensive

2.       It has a comb which is really helpful in shaping our eyebrows

3.       It is really very pigmented

4.       It is travel friendly

5.       There are different shades as mentioned above

Cons

1.       We have to sharpen the pencil

2.       Availability is a major issue, as we can’t get them at all the places and not all shades are available

Would I recommend them to others and will I repurchase them?

Yes, if you can grab them somewhere please do try them as they are for just Rs. 10 or may be ranging from Rs. 10 to Rs. 50 depending on different locations. They are worth using. I will repurchase it again for sure because they are amazing and really pigmented.

Concealing and Baking

Introduction to concealing and baking:

Today I am going to tell about concealing and baking. Concealing is mainly used to cover our dark circles, dark spots and pigmentation. Baking is used for reducing the greasiness or oiliness of our makeup.

Method/Procedure of concealing and baking:

Concealer is used under our eyes, on our eyelids, wherever we have dark spots and pigmented areas. Baking is mainly applying loose powder on our face on concealed areas, so, that concealed areas are secured and our makeup doesn’t move. So, basically in baking we need to apply loose powder and wait for 2 minutes, so, that all our oil is absorbed and then remove the excess powder with makeup brush.

Products used for concealing and baking:

I use Mac select cover up concealer for concealing my dark circles, dark spots and pigmented areas. For baking, I use lakme rose powder, as it gives instant glow to my skin, which I love the most. Both these products are amazing. Mac concealer is obviously a high end brand, but the products are worth, so I use this product. And, ever since I have started using it, I have never tried any other product. Lakme rose powder is a very affordable product. So, you don’t need to think twice while buying it.

Price

Mac select cover up concealer is for Rs. 1300

Lakme rose powder is for Rs. 120

Best moisturizer for oily and acne prone face

So, I really wanted to share this thing with you guys. There is a gel known as Sebamed face gel which is best for oily and acne prone skin because even if we have oily and acne prone face our face needs some moisturizer.

Packaging

It comes in a white box Sebamed face gel is written on the box. If we open the box there is a tube in white and name is written in the same way as it is written on box.

Color and consistency

It is in gel form, so, it doesn’t have any color. It has thick consistency. It’s very light weight moisturizer.

Usage

I apply it all over my face in night and go to sleep. When I wake up I wash my face with water. It has done a very good job for my face since I have started using it. It has made my face soft, smooth and plumy. I just love the way it has worked for me.

Price

Rs. 500

New FabIndia Lip butter- Dew Kiwi

If you read my blogs regularly then I had a blog post about FabIndia Lip Butter plum passion which I had used for an entire year approx and I was at the end of finishing it. As I mentioned that I will be repurchasing it again, so here it is again FabIndia Lip Butter but in new variant as I wanted to try out something different, so I purchased Dew Kiwi variant. Good news is that the packaging has changed which is more attractive and vibrant.

Packaging

It comes in cardboard and plastic sheet of packaging. So, we have to remove our Lip butter tub or jar from the outer package. All information is provided on this outer packaging like manufacturing date, expiry date, price and ingredients. After we remove the outer package we get a tub or jar of Lip Butter. The cap is in golden color on which the name FabIndia is mentioned in golden color and Lip Butter Dew Kiwi is mentioned in black color. It has a separator in white inside after which we get our product, so we have to remove the separator and take the product. The Lip Butter comes in transparent jar which is really very sturdy.

Color, consistency and texture

It is green in color, but it doesn’t leave green cast on lips which is really good and consistency of this Lip Butter is thick. Texture of this Lip Butter is really soft and moisturizing.

This is how it looks when applied.

This is how it looks when its blended.

Price

Rs. 150 for 5 gms

Pros

1.       It has eye catching packaging better than earlier packaging

2.       It moisturizes lips making them softer and smoother

3.       It is green in color but after we apply it on our lips, it doesn’t leave any green cast

4.       It is affordable and pocket friendly

5.       Fragrance is really mesmerizing

6.       It is travel friendly as it is really a very tiny jar, smaller than the earlier one.

7.       As it is an FabIndia Product it is against animal testing

Cons

1.       Main problem is that we have to put our hands in the jar and apply it on our lips (Similar to earlier packaging but still covering this point)

2.       The earlier tub or jar was 10 grams which lasted me for 1 year approx but now FabIndia has reduced the quantity to 5 grams (It will last me for less than 6 months I guess) which is really bad and sad, didn’t expect this much reduction of product, I mean it is half the quantity from earlier one

      Would I recommend this product to others and will I repurchase it again?

       

      Yes, I definitely recommend it to others as it is a very good product and budget friendly. Yes, I will repurchase it again or may be try another variant (I love trying different variants). Only one variant is left from FabIndia that is Vanilla one which I might try next time.
