I have been meaning to do this for a while now, wanting to post my empties every month. Last month I realized that I need to utilize products from my existing stash before cluttering further as I have run out of space. So here are a few products which I finished in the month of November 2020.
1. Khaadi pure intentions purifying coffee souffle scrub
I have already reviewed this product here. I really liked this scrub in terms or performance and quality.
2. Mana Beauty Clarity Cream
I have been using this cream as body cream and loved its fragrance. It smells strongly of rose extracts and if you are allergic to fragrant products or prefer odorless products then I suggest you skip buying it. Otherwise, its a really good body cream for moderate weather providing necessary hydration.
3. Essence honey care hand cream
Hand creams are a must have product in my beauty regimen. I use them a lot on daily basis. Thanks to COVID and excessive use of hand sanitizers, resulting in super dry hands. The Winters haven't also been any easy right from the start. This hand cream by essence turned out to be a gem. Bought on a whim from just4girls.pk and turned out to be s great choice.
4. Soap and Glory hand cream
I have had hard luck with this particular product by Soap and Glory. I have tried three of these hand creams and all turned out to be foul smelling, cream and water separated like a foul curd. I forcefully used this one assuming that probably this is how this product is. Every time before usage, I used to shake the tube well to combine the separated water and cream mixture and then apply on my hands. No doubt it was a great hand cream minus the foul smell and a dud formula.
5. Gillette satin care sensitive skin shave gel
I have been having a hard time shaving my body lately as I have totally given up on waxing for 3 years now. Thanks to my laser technician who suggested using shaving gels for smooth shaving. Since then Gillette shaving gel has become a life saver. Its an affordable product ranging around Rs. 650 that's lasted me around 5 to 6 full body shaves.
6. Vintage cosmetics Smokey eye pencil
I received this pencil in my Boxycharm subscription box and it instantly became my favorite. It has minimum fall out and is super pigmented. I believe its by an indie makeup brand and not a main stream one but performance wise it is above many commercial brands.
I hope you liked my post. I have decided to do my empties post on a monthly basis to keep track of products that I have to use and dispose off before they go bad or expire. Its also one of my ways to control excessive, unnecessary purchasing. Lets see how much progress I make with this new project. Stay healthy and beautiful. xoxo!!!
Hello Beautiful!
Hand care - an essential part of skin care regimen. Every day our hands are exposed to innumerable objects and materials that strip away the natural moisture of the skin leaving our hands dry and lifeless; dish wash bar for one, detergent another. As women we can not avoid coming in contact with these elements which urges the need to take care of our hands all the more. I bought Garnier intensive 7 days smoothing hand cream on impulse as the tube looked appealing. How did it perform? Read my review to find out...

Hi Beauties!
I did not feel like blogging and yet I wanted to do a post. So I came up with the idea of posting about my weekend beauty rituals routine. I am so getting my laziness fits these days. Anyhow being a working woman (there is supposed to be a term "working girl", working woman sounds so grown up and aged), weekend is the best time to catch up with myself and that includes grooming myself to look presentable enough (meaning plucking eye brows and threading my upper lips to look sane). So here are a few things I used yesterday.
| Skin+i hand spa ritual, Skin+i foot spa ritual, Me Col facial mask in grapes, Dr. Snow plateau salvia-root brightening eye mask, Pantene oil replacement |
Hi Beauties!
Today's post is different as I am going to review a product that is very unique and first of its kind. Some weeks back I was presented with the opportunity to try out a new sort of mani and padi (no, it is not a fish padi). Here is my take on the product. Read further to find out what I am fussing about...

Hi Beauties!
Winters
are in full swing and these winters have been really harsh on our skins. The
winter winds are making the skin real dry and chappy. No matter how much we
cover ourselves but hands and face is something that usually exposed to the
harsh climate. In this post I bring you a product for hand care which is very
effective and pocket friendly.

Hi Beauties!
Like I always insist upon hand care here I am with another hand care item by Oriflame. For the last three months the Oriflame promotional flyer had been carrying around this product on a considerable discount. Though I already had their hand and nail cream which I have been using religiously and it has ended too, I thought of purchasing this hyacinth scented hand and nail cream for a try as it was pretty reasonable on discount.
Oriflame hyacinth scented hand and nail cream comes in a 50 ml soft squeeze tube. Its small in size and can easily be placed in handbag for any time use.
Yes I know my tube has turned yellow *blush*. Its because of two reasons, firstly this was already the last piece available and secondly this has been brutually treated by other things lying in my handbag :p hence the yellowness, a visible proof of mistreatment :p
My Experience:

The cream has a moderate density which means it requires a small amount on hands. It is not runny or thick but is between the two.
My Experience:
Coming to my experience of this cream I would like to mention that before this I have been using Oriflame's Nourishing hand cream for dry hands regularly for quite a few months. You can check out my review on it here. I have experienced the nourishing hand cream changing its smell into not a good one plus it did not last long. So I was not fond of it anymore. On the other hand Hyacinth cream is a better moisturizer as compared to nourishing hand cream and also lasts longer and smells ten times better. It instantly softens the hands and makes them smell real good. On an average a person touches his/her face 3000 times per day. Can you imagine taking your hand to your face and it smelling like shit? No? Then hyacinth is the right cream if you are into soft, smooth and nice smelling hands. Although this cream is cheaper than the nourishing hand cream yet I find it way better. This cream actually over runs my previous review of nourishing hand cream. I would rate hyacinth cream 3.7/5 and would recommend you girls to give it a try. I purchased this cream from Oriflame's Head office located in Garden Town Lahore for Rs. 158 and its totally worth the price. Hope you liked my review. Drop in your comments as I love to read them. Stay healthy and beautiful. Take care!
Hi Beauties!
As much as our focus is on our faces I think double should be the focus on our hands. Since its the hands that do all the jobs be it a dirty job.... hands should be taken care of more often. With all the dust and pollution around hands require a regular care routine. Therefore, I gave Oriflame's renewing hand scrub a try.
Oriflame renewing hand scrub comes in a light coral soft sqeezy tube and the content is 75 ml. Its a small tube which makes it travel friendly and can be easily carried around in the purse.
This is how the scrub looks like. Its beige in color like some sort of foundation base and has small scrub granules.
My Experience:
I would label this scrub as an everyday use scrub. The granules are really fine and they are not at all harsh on the skin. One does not even feel that its a scrub. By saying that the granules are smooth and soft I an not intending that it does not work as a scrub, it really does its job well and scrubs off all the dirt and grime on the hands. I have used it thrice and I have seen instant results. My hands feel soft, neat and clean. Another best thing about this scrub is that it lathers. It is not like other scrubs which are just cream like. I am big on lather and usually prefer face washes and other skin care products which lather because lather reduces friction while massaging and does not cause any bruising or redness afterwards. The scrub is really easy to use. Take some amount of scrub and massage it well on your hands, focus around the nail area and finger joints. Massage for like 5 to 7 minutes and rinse hands with water. Bingo! hello to clean and smooth hands.
You can buy this hand scrub from Oriflame consultants on Facebook. I purchased mine from Oriflame office in Lahore Garden Town. I would recommend using this scrub twice or thrice a week. Its really gentle on the skin and would not harm it. I would rate this product 3.7/5 and would recommend you people giving it a try as well. Hope you liked my review. Drop in your comments and let me know I love to read your feedback. Stay healthy and beautiful. Take care!
Hi Beauties!
I am back with another haul post and I know how much fun it is to read about hauls. Its such a wonderful feeling to see new products or see someone buying the products you already are using. I was looking at Oriflame promotions for like a month now and was planning what to buy, finally I made my trip to Oriflame office. I went once before like two weeks back, but there I came to know they have relocated to a new location. It took me some searching to find out their new location but it was worth the wait. Lets not keep you waiting anymore, here is what I got myself.
Hi Beauties!
Its a nail tip cutter which gives a square shape to the nails.
Square nails have been in vogue for quite sometime now. Some naturally have a square shape and do not require much hard work to shape their nails. On the other hand there are people like me who have round shaped nails and no matter how hard they try they fail to achieve a perfect square look. I have tried million times before and always ended up ruining my nails till this miraculous product arrived.
Its a nail tip cutter which gives a square shape to the nails.
It looks just like pliers and works in the same way as well. It has a plastic body with a matte finish and is very smooth with good finishing. Its available in different colors like orange, pink, lilac, mustard and black. I liked the one in black. The head which does all the magic is in the picture below:
All you need to do is put your nail in the curvy hollow part right in the middle and squeeze the handles. Voila! there you have your perfect square shaped nail. Its so easy to use and is so convenient. I am so glad I made this purchase. The only thing which I observed one needs to be cautious about is the placement of the nail. It should not be right next to your skin, I am sure you do not intend to get a squared skin :p and secondly the nail should be placed in such a manner that its exactly in the middle of the curvy hollow so that you do not get a nail shape slanting more towards left or either right.
So above is the result I got in my first attempt. I know it isn't perfect but isn't bad either. With a little practice I'll be a pro in no time.
And here is the final look:
I am thoroughly satisfied with this product. It does the job and does what it claims. I ordered it online on M & S Nail Art's Facebook page. Here is the link to her page. Check out her page she has got fabulous stuff for nail art and a wide variety of nail accessories and that too at very reasonable and affordable prices. This nail tip cutter cost me Rs. 350. You can transfer the amount via a bank transfer or easy paisa. The day I made the transfer, it arrived the very next day within 24 hours. Currently there is a promotion going on her page, till New year there are no delivery charges. Avail this offer and enjoy your shopping with no extra delivery charges.
Hope you liked my review. Share in your views with me. Stay healthy and beautiful. Take care!

Hi Beauties!
So I had been requested quite alot of times to do reviews on Oriflame products I had purchased, so finally I'm going to do my first Oriflame review. My skin is really really dry sort and in winters it wants me to take butter and lotion baths so you can imagine how much I need to keep my skin hydrated. Winters are just around the corner and with the beginning of cool breezes my skin starts getting dry especially my hands. Whenever I wash my hands I need to apply a lotion or a cream but I don't like oily creams like astral. I had been reading a lot about Oriflame products on different blogs plus there was so many publicity being done about oriflame so I thought about giving the hand cream a try.
There is a complete range of hand care products by Oriflame. For starters I got myself the nourishing hand cream for dry hands. Its a matte plastic tube with 100ml contents of the cream.
