Review: Bourjois Paris CITY RADIANCE foundation.

Hello , all! Today, i'll be reviewing the newly released ‘CITY RADIANCE' foundation from Bourjois Paris. Now, this foundation is one of it's kind due to the innovative concept underlying the formula! This foundation protects the facial skin against pollutants by forming an anti-pollution screen on the face which blocks and prevents dirt and germs from settling on the facial skin. Next , it's got SPF 30 and radiance -boosting pigments which have a overall brightening effect on the skin. I loooove this product considering it's a skin protecting foundation, something i haven't come across yet. The formula is matte , yet not drying. I applied this foundation and stepped out in Jeddah's humid weather all day , and the foundation still din't get oily , even in the T-zone area. It has a yellow undertone, and tends to even out the complexion evenly without cakying out! It has a fairly good coverage , and i required a dainty amoun...

Review: BOURJOIS PARIS BLUSHER.

Howdy , beauties! Today , i am going to be featuring, and sharing my thoughts on Bourjois Paris blusher in the shade ‘74 ROSE AMBRÉ' Okay. I'll begin by admitting to the fact that blushers (both cream and powder) are my frenzy! I believe , if not anything , by only wearing a subtle amount of blusher , you can instantly achieve a healthy flushed out complexion! So , yes , i am unapologetically obsessed with good blushers,especially when it comes from one of my favourite drugstore brand, i.e Bourjois Paris! So , let's begin with the actual review! The  blusher has a warm peachy shade with a rose undertone. The pigmentation is quite intense , yet very much on the natural side , and not very loud. It has a very well formulated , satin and smooth texture , and blends super easily into the skin! It has an almost talc like smell , and a decent staying power. Now, this is so far, the most complimenting blusher for my skin tone! It gives an exceptiona...

Review: GARNIER'S BB Cream.

Hey , girls! Today, i'll be sharing my thoughts about Garnier's BB cream in the shade Light/ Claire. Now , i have been wanting to purchase this bb cream ever since it's release , so it's definitely going to be a very exciting product review! Let's begin by telling you what this BB cream claims to do. So this BB cream claims to - •Hydrate •Covers •Evens •Illuminates , and •Protects with SPF 15 Now , let's see if it lived up to my expectations! The shade that i got is called ‘Light/ Claire', but , it's a very natural looking warmer light shade , and it blends seamlessly with my skin tone.Love this attribute , since my complexion looks naturally even toned. Next , the coverage of this BB cream is very light and sheer. I expected it to have a stronger coverage , but it turned out to be very light , almost like a tinted moisturizer. It doesn't cover the blemishes or spots , so you may have to resort to using your concealer. B...

Review : L'ORÉAL Paris Elvive Styling Hair Cream.

Helu, lovely readers! So, i recently  got into styling my hair using the ceramic hair straightner. Yes , recently , because i've always been ultra protective and skeptical about my hair, and thought styling my hair using heat would further aggravate my fine and damaged locks. Anyhow , i still got myself a sleek ceramic heat hair straighter in the recent past. So , naturally , i was inclined towards finding myself a good styling hair cream that'd not just assist hair styling , but also protect my hair from the damaging heat. Recently , i got to try  L'oreal Paris's range of styling hair creams. The three creams that i tried are individually (L-R)  meant for •Nourishing and protecting • Repairing and Protecting • Anti hair -fall protect purposes. And, that pretty much sums up almost all of everyday to pre/ post styling hair care needs. I always had this assumption that styling does makes your hair dry and frizzy , and consequently , my hair strands did be...

Review : Bourjois Paris Brow Design mascaras.

Hello , lovlies! Assalamalaikum. Today, i'll be reviewing the Bourjois Paris Brow Design mascaras that i got to try recently. Let's begin with an intro about what Brow mascaras essentially do! So , basically , brow mascaras are supposed to tame unruly and bushy eyebrows , fix them and hold them in place all day long! And, this mascara duo did all the above mentioned functions very well. The clear mascara in the shade ‘01' is a clear and transparent  brow mascara , that can be used to tame , shape and define your eyebrows effortlessly! I love this one particularly as it has a super light texture , it isn't oily, runny or greasy , runs and applies super smoothly on the brow hair , and really shapes the brow hair beautifully. The mascara wand is aooropriate for detailed application, and easily get into every brow hair. The next shade in number ‘03' is a brow mascara with a an almost light brown tint. Although , this mascara shade turned out to...
