Hello Beautiful!

I am generally a lazy person and maintaining routines has never been easy for me. I don't know if I should attribute it to bad habits, disorganization or just a personally trait but this is how I generally am. However, in year 2019, this is one area where I am working on improving myself. Being organized! Thats the goal. So point being, I am also lazy when it comes to taking care of myself. It wasn't so a few years back but I guess most of my time is now occupied by surfing the social media for no reason which leaves me with no time to accomplish anything else. 

With the influx of matte liquid lipsticks in the market, the need of a good lip exfoliator has also increased. There are definitely some stubborn lipsticks that really require an exfoliator to take off the residual. Lush lip scrub is gold in a pot when we speak about lip exfoliation. Here is my take on the product. 

Winters bring us dry fruit, warm, trendy clothes to wear along with fog and non sunny days. Besides all these beautiful things there are a few other things that come along with Winter, like, dry and chapped lips. Due to less water in take or as a weather effect, lips go dry and give a patchy, cracked appearance. This Winter I have a great product to treat dry and cracked lips. Read my review to find out more about this product. 

With the month of July came out the new promotions by Oriflame. They now have these quarterly promotions which stay for like 3 months. Though I personally preffered their monthly promotions like they were used to last year but I think this year they had a change in their promotional policies. Oh well, July has got some new Oriflame products launching in Pakistan. New is their Studio Artist range which has foundation, pressed powder and lipsticks. I got myself a few picks which I'm gonna share with you all.

1. Oriflame Perfume Fire for Rs. 792

2. Oriflame pencil sharpner for Rs. 143

3. Silk anti perspirant 24h roll on deodarant for Rs. 279

4. Optifresh whitening toothpaste for Rs. 238

5. Lip spa therapy for Rs. 439

6. Wonder color lipstick in Beige wonder for Rs. 552

7. Studio Artist lipstick in Hot pink for Rs. 398

8. Gloss bosster in sugar glaze for Rs. 552 (I forgot to put in the picture above, a solo picture of it is at the end)

Another thing about winter season is it brings along dry and chapped lips. No matter how much water you drink or lick your lips they get dry after a while. So what to do when this happens? We all go for lip moisturizing products that keep our lips hydrated. I also have used several lip products before as I tend to have dry skin and my lips get really dry in winters. But none of them worked as great as this one.

Yes, it is born lippy lip balm by The Body Shop. I already have other lip balms that I keep on using from time to time but once I went to Pot Pourri and saw this baby there and thought of giving it a try. I had asked its price from different shops, some quoted it for Rs. 800 and some Rs. 700. To be honest spending Rs. 700 for this small lip balm pot did not appeal me. At Pot Pourri I was told this pot worth Rs. 450. I instantly bought it. Here I would like to make one thing clear, this is 100% original body shop lip balm not fake or any A grade copy. The packing, the product, the fragrance I checked everything and it is 100% genuine. This is being sold at the same price on another cosmetic shop I often visit which is Channel in Liberty Markets. So I am sure it is real. The reason for it being this cheap is, unlike the original body shop, these small cosmetic shops do not have to bear the marketing expenses, sale girls' salaries and direct import costs. Plus the brands place their counters on different stores which means additional expenses so no doubt they have higher prices.

It comes in a small transparent sort of plastic pot which makes it travel friendly. You can pop it into your purse and use it whenever you want. Born lippy lip balms are available in different fragrances. Mine is in passionberry which smells almost like rasberry lip balmsand is a beautiful mauve color. It has 10ml of product and weighs approximately 9 grams.

I have swatched it on my finger. Since it is not clearly visible so I have encircled the area in red where I have it swatched. It is pretty much colorless when applied on lips and gives a wonderful fragrance. I feel like eating it when I apply it on my lips.

How much joy is felt when we recieve that red or yellow box at our door step? How the heart flutters to open up that courier box..... I felt the same joy and heart fluttering when I got another yellow box from Just4girls.pk. Here is what was in the box

YES! I love Luscious Lips balms. I so wanted to have them since the moment I saw them on Just4girls.pk's website but unfortunately I was broke at that time and later they got out of stock. But few days back they came back in stock and I instantly placed and order for them. They arrived within 3 or 4 days at my door step.

These lip alms are also available separately but since they were out of stock and I did not want to miss them out this time so I ordered the whole set. The set includes lip balms in:

The outer cover slides away and the lip balms are placed in a cardboard tray. They are glued at the bottom and come out with a little pressure.

I have started using the strawberry and milkshake one. Lets see how it turns out. Before this I was using The body shop's born lippy in raspberry. So I am comparing the results of this to born lippy one. Review will follow shortly.

This set is priced at Rs. 990 on Just4girls.pk's website. I paid Rs. 250 delivery charges for Lahore so in total they cost me Rs. 1240. You can check out their website by clicking on this link here. Hope you liked my new buy. Stay healthy and beautiful. Take care!

I got this Rivaj fan brush from Hyperstar shopping mall. There is a Flormar and other affilated brands cosmetic store in Hyperstar.
