Ryaal Black Mess to clear your mess!

Hi Girls, 
This time its been really long since i have posted; its been weeks struggling or should i say 'juggling' between job, family, health, my passion and my learning. its obviously not easy when you are forced to prioritize and just thrive on those, leaving your passion behind. All these days i have been wandering that how others are coping up with such struggles with the fact that everyone has one or the other troubles in their life still, they are able to make it.

May be they are able to push themselves to a little more extent, probably more than i do.
But I am back...with a promise with myself that I would prioritize but with No compromise. 

And this time its with an amazing product i have been using since past few months. if You are always in combat with your ugly acne and marks left behind & you hardly have time to go for full fledged facials/treatments...I have got something for you. 




I am a mess myself but promise to leave your skin mess free

Anti Acne Gel: Tvakh Vs Biotique

The most annoying thing for a skin freak like me....Acne. 
I guess this is probably a never ending search where I may not be able to find a complete cure to my deadly cystic acne and these adult acne ...is a pain.
But what i have observed so far is that natural, organic and chemical free treatments works..although a gradual process which takes its own time but it does. 
With the new organic natural brands blooming in India, have got ample of chances to try. 
So today its not just a brand but a specific concern- yes its Acne. This word ' Acne ' & 'Gel' grabs my attention everytime i am looking for my skincare stuff. 
So in a shopping frenzy, I got to grab two of such products but from different brands- 
1. Biotique Bio Chlorophyll oil free anti acne gel (199 for 50 gms)
2. Tvakh Magnolia and Chaulmogra oil free anti acne gel(585 for 30 gms)

Aura Vedic Kumkumadi Oil Review
Aura Vedic Kumkumadi Oil for Face & Body
Facial is probably one of the most popular skin treatments in Beauty Salons and has become an integral part of beauty Regime. Although I have not been to Facials frequently, reason being I was not sure if this would treat or aggravate my skin problems. Their Sooo enormously creamy massages and heavy scrubs were actually led me withdrew everytime. 
But recently while I was introduced to Oils and Aroma Therapy with Essential Oils, I found that Facial Oils are one of the best ways not only to clean but rejuvenate the skin. Initially I was only sticking to my DIY Face Oils for Cleansing and Massage. But recently gave a try to one of my most trusted Ayurvedic Brands- AURA VEDIC
I have been using their Oils, masks, gels etc but was dying to try their Kumkumadi Oil. So here is my review of Aura Vedic Kumkumadi Oil. 
Price- 250 INR for 100ml.

Nicka K Microfine Artliner: Review and Swatches

I had just entered my office and a friend asked- what happened, Is everything OK? 
Yup- I said, But Why are you asking this??
You are looking so dull and sad, probably not feeling well?
No, I am all Ok and then I rushed to Washroom to see whats wrong with my face.
I realised that it was my eyes, my bare eyes without liner and kajal ....... 
Immediately I lined up my eyes and came out. Instantly the friend told that we are not in habit of seeing your bare eyes. We love your colour kholed eyes and the way you play with colours.

Ayush from Hindustan Lever; Haul and mini Reviews

Hi All, 
its the weekend and I'm back on my blogger desk...whats up today???
its a little about one of my recent hauls. Its from one of the recently launched personal care range from HLL. Its Ayush!! Although AYUSH in India refers to Ministry of Indian Medicine and Homeopathy which recently adopted this name; created in March 1995 and renamed as Department of Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha and Homoeopathy (AYUSH) in November 2003. But Why I wanted to try this- reasons....
firstly its the first AYURVEDIC range from the brand
secondly wanted to check out if its truly Ayurvedic and Organic too???
Also every product has been claimed to have some reliable age old ayurvedic ingredient like turmeric, saffron, Rock salt, Ghee etc and they have made sure to associate each product with one of the known ayurvedic formulations like Nalpamaradi Oil, Kumkumadi oil, Arimedas Oil etc
So HLL also adopted this name to give an ethnic or Indian origin to the brand. so lets see what all i could grab and whats my view about them.

Most Inexpensive Charcoal Mask ...for acne prone and oily skin!

Most Inexpensive Charcoal Face Mask

Lately i had been reading so much about Charcoal and its skin care benefits. 
Charcoal has the capacity to pull out all types of bacteria, poisons, chemicals, dirt and other micro-particles to the surface of skin, This helps the skin get rid of all the toxins and to achieve a flawless complexion and fight acne. Charcoal is not absorbed by the body, but it can be used to treat some poisonous bites and disinfect some wounds. Activated charcoal powder is proven to adsorb thousands of times its own mass in harmful substances, which makes it a popular ingredient in facial masks.

While I was searching for some good charcoal, came across thousands of brands and options online. But then I was looking something handy and easily available. I could recollect my aunt using charcoal as tooth powder. So my hunt for Charcoal started with my local provision store. All what i could easily find this-

Khandige Bhrangamalakadi Organic Hair oil Review

All ready with your favourite dress and makeup but just a moment...Hairs???

dont know how to manage those thining frizzy hairs????sigh!!!
I had those voluminous curly tressess long enough to envy my friends and Me?..Never ever thought that they are so precious. Till i started loosing them and now trying to recall all home remedies and therapies and what not to STOP that scary hairfall. 
I wont say that home remedies and Treatments do not work but the most important thing is 
What you eat and what is your routine? Along with what all you do to nourish your scalp and hairs???
So here lie the answer- a balanced diet, Lots of fluid intake and also a little pampering!
My pampering sessions are on weekends when i try my DIY hair Oils, Hair Masks, Hair Serums and so on. 
But lately when Khandige people contacted me to try their hair oil- Bhrangamalakadi hair oil, I was more than happy as I was already too impressed with their Kumkumadi Face oil and which has become one of my staples in skin care.
Lets see, its been a month I am using Khandige Bhrangamalakadi organic hair oil and so here is my view about the oil.

Skin Care Haul- The Body Shop, Farsali- First Impressions

Hi Girls, 

Past few weeks has really been hectic as i was too occupied travelling but then my favourite escape to the boredom and monotony was (and would always be) online shopping. 
Was excited to see year end sale offers  & discounts so some of the picks were like...lures and while others were new and some were on my wishlist.
Lets see some of them which i have in my bucket..

Skin Care Haul- The Body Shop Products

1. The Body Shop Haul- This was like the one most awaited one. flat 50% off sale on The Body SHop site!!!. There were real good products on offer and it was difficult to choose few but then after a lot of random thoughts i picked- 

a. The Body Shop Oils of Life Intensely Revitalising Sleeping Cream (INR 2495 for 80ml)
I bought this as i was looking for a good Night cream which addresses my Acne prone skin and aging concerns. i was all done with my Kama Ayurveda Night Cream and it worked amazingly well on my skin so that i had too high expectations for others to match. But then Oils of Life was a good deal at flat 50% off although I was eyeing Tea Tree Anti Imperfection mask along with The Charcoal Mask but then its better not to be greedy...hehehe.
My first Impressions- Nice gel cream with pleasant aroma; is so calming and soothing for face. Have used it for 5-10 days and always woke up with plumped, hydrated and glowing skin. No side effects so far.

The Nalpamaradi Thailam for your skin- Kairali Ayurvedic

Kairali Nalpamaradi Thailam Review

Hi Girls, 
The more I am delving in organic and natural ways of SKin care, more I go close to Oils.  I have oils for every kind of skin care need, be it for face- anti aging, acne or for body, nails and obviously for hairs too. 
You can say, my day starts with oils and ends with it and still my hunger to try oils and concoctions is still not satiated. 
If you remember how i raved about Eladi Tailam and have been using this since quite long. Firstly it was with Auravedic and Kairali Ayurvedics
This would be my third purchase from Kairali after Facial oil. While repurchasing the Eladi oil from Kairali, came across Nalpamaradi Thailam which is again considered to be one of the most effective formula to combat skin infections and also for brightening and glowing properties. So there was a bottle in my hand ! 

Price- INR 130 for 200ml of oil.
Can be purchased online here from company website and also available on 1mg.com too.

A special medicated oil prepared exclusively for skin care. The base oil used is Coconut oil, which by nature has several properties to protect and pamper skin. Itching, burning sensation, redness of skin, infections which causes irritations on the skin surface etc are cured with appropriate use of Nalpamaradi Thailam. Apart from being special oil for skin diseases, this particular Thailam serves the purpose of a preventive measure against skin anomalies, if used regularly. Nalpamaradi Thailam is effective against pitha dominated lesions that affect the skin and is also widely used among children.
