Nivea lip butter - Caramel cream review

Hello beautiful gals :)

Today I am gonna be reviewing Nivea lip butter in Caramel cream. I was waiting for the lip butters from Nivea to come to India soon, so , when I saw this lip butter at Health & Glow I was soooooooooooooo thrilled ...I took a long long looooong time to decide to pick up the Caramel Cream lip butter or the Raspberry one. I finalized on Caramel cream coz I hav a lip balm in Raspberry from The Body Shop and Caramel would be some thing new in my lip product collection.

Without wasting much time lets talk about the product.

First things first . What I love about this product is it smells so heavenly delicious I am not gonna lie you've gotta try to believe me. It smells of all things yummyliciously edible .I feel like licking it ,the fragrance is the best ,I close my eyes as I take in the fragrance and I am automatically reminded of cookies and puddings. Its Caramel and it makes me fall in love with it even more. As I am writing this review I am stopping by just to sniff it up a lil bit and I just want more and more of it, this smells that deliciously crazy.

Take a lil bit of this product and its like you are spreading your finger on a butter. It is that buttery soft :* :* :) :)

Ingredients

It even contains Shea Butter and Almond Oil which do a great job to pamper and hydrate your lips. I am a total lip product junkie and I love pampering my lips. You can wear this Lip Butter alone or on top of your fav lipstick. The lip balm has a subtle shine not the glossy shine though.

Net Quantity; 16.7g / 19 ml
Mrp; Rs 189/-

Pros:-

* I love the tin packaging , small and convenient [ it ll fit in comfortably in your jean pocket or yo small clutch ]

* Smells heavenly delicious [ soooo good that you would wanna lick it up ]

* Contains some real good ingredients to moisturize and protect your lips.

* Long lasting moisturizing effect.

Cons:-

* No SPF , a lil bit SPF would be a bonus to this fab product.

I tried this and love it... Its my current obsession now.

Gals u've gotta go get your self one of the lip butters from Nivea .Let me know if any one of you have tried the Raspberry one.

Beauty tricks when you slept less and wanna look fresh

Hello beautiful girls

Dint get your 7 hours beauty sleep last night ? and now you look dull and feel bad ??? Yea I know that feeling girls...We have all been through times where we scored our self maybe just 5 hours of sleep or in some cases even less .[For me itz during exam time or when I catch up with frenz , I end up going to bed really late and wake up feelin DYYYYYYIIIIIIUUUUUMMMMM I LOOK SO TIRED AND ZOMBIE LIKE ]

Take a deep breath and relax as I show you some simple tricks

1. Fake a healthy glow

    After you wash your face spray on some rose water , pat dry and apply a BB cream of your choice.
    Rose water +BB cream = Healthy fresh glow.

     My pick;
*Rose Water - Dabur Gulabari rose touch face freshner
*BB Cream-    Garnier BB cream

2. Reduce puffiness

Pack ice cube in a cloth and place on your eyes to reduce redness and puffiness .Cold tea bags also do the same trick .No ice cubes or tea bags ??? CHHHHHHIIIIIILLLLL ...take 2 stainless steel spoons and keep in freezer for 10 mins , then place it on your eyes ,this does the trick too.

3. Draw attention away from your eyes [ ROCK YO LIPS GAL ]

Focus on your lips . Use a bright lip color than usual , could be glossy lips in pinks or lipsticks in Coral/ Pink/Red . BUT NOT BROWN ; Browns just wont work out .

My pick;

*Streetwear lipgloss - Shade name STRAWBERRY

*Bourjois lip gloss - Shade name ROSE YUMMY

*Maybelline lipstick -Shade name FRUIT PUNCH

*Loreal lipstick -Shade name DEEP RASPBERRY from color riche

4. Swipe kajal /eyeliner

Use your fav smudge free eye pencil to line and darken up your water line.

My pick;

*Maybelline Colossal kajal

I hope you find this post useful ..Love you all.

My fav shade of pink

Hello pretty galz.....

Today I am going to be reviewing a lipstick I keep re-purchasing , a lipstick you will always find in my bag [ even though I am wearing a different shade on my lips , I still like to keep this in my bag ]

Maybelline colorsensational Hooked on pink

Before I was a total lipgloss person ..I was never into lipsticks , this is the first lipstick I tried and I love it and ever since then I am Hooked on pink ; literally guyzz!!! and the shade name is perfect , it is what it says ....

Shade name : Hooked on pink

Shade no: 065

MRP: 375/-

Itz a beautiful shade of pink . The lipstick is moisturizing it does not dry out your lips. It is long lasting and feels very comfortable on your lips . With this lipstick I just wear it alone sans the lipbalm. YES , IT IS THAT MOISTURIZING , unlike the Superstay lipsticks also from Maybelline which completely left my lips feeling dry and begging for some moisturizing effect.

You can build up the color to make it dark or light ...I just dot and dab it on instead of swiping and gliding . I like to keep the shade a lil close to natural.

Let me know which is your favorite lip color or the lipstick you keep re purchasing.
