Choose Right Sleeping Position during Pregnancy..

During pregnancy one of the main concern is getting a proper and comfortable sleeping position. We normally love the back or stomach sleeping postion and it is really comfortable too. But during pregnancy we can't sleep in those positions, it might be harmful for the baby inside the womb. To be very honest, I am still struggling to get a proper sleep during night (I am on my third trimester currently ). And I know it is not gonna possible in any way now. But we can take few precautions to make the sleep pattern comfortable and that's the topic of today.

Choose Right Sleeping Position during Pregnancy..

Types of sleeping patterns and it's bad and good effect on body during pregnancy :

* Sleep on your back - It is advisable by the doctor to not sleep on your back during the time period of pregnancy . When we sleep on our back ,it puts pressure on the growing uterus which compress the main artery and other blood vessels. Because of this the blood and nutrition supply to the baby will not be sufficient. Along with that you might face indigestion issue, constipation, low blood pressure, laziness, etc. So do avoid sleeping on your back during pregnancy.

* Sleep on stomach - I love sleeping on my stomach down but unfortunately we can't sleep like this during pregnancy. It is very clear that, when you are sleeping on your stomach, it will put pressure on the baby directly which is not good at all.

* Sleep on left / right side - Sleeping on sides is the safest way of sleeping during pregnancy. Moreover sleeping on left is more beneficial for the baby and the body than sleeping on right side. It allows maximum blood flows to the placenta and nutrition to the baby. It doesn't put pressure on the kidney. You also don't face any kind of swelling on feet, ankle, etc.

To get a comfortable sleep, the only way is to put pillows to support your back, under your belly, under your feet. Using loads of pillows make your body comfortable . You can use special kind of pillows which are meant only for pregnant women . Sometimes we sleep and not able to carry the same sleeping pattern whole night. In case you find yourself sleeping on your back, then no need to feel guilty , just change your sleeping pattern and sleep again.

Note : These are the information which I am sharing on my own experience and also according to my gynecologist's advice. Do refer your gynecologist before adopting anything to get a smooth pregnancy...

Hope you found this post helpful . See you in the next post with another exciting topic.. Till then stay beautiful.

Parchayee Episode 4 'Wilson's Bridge'

Snigdha's Passion March 02, 2019 Entertainment , Movie/TV series review 30 Comments

Ghost series or movies are so much fun to watch, at least for me. I love the curiosity and the whole feeling of 'what is going to happen next' that you get while watching any ghost related content, be it a series or movies. Of late, I got hooked to this new horror web series, Parchayee on ZEE5. If you are not aware as to what Parchayee is then let me tell you that Parchayee is a ghost series which airs on ZEE5 currently. The ghost stories featured in the show are penned down by Ruskin Bond. My love for the concept of ghost and spirits have pushed me to watch Parchayee right away.

The first 3 episodes (The Ghost in the garden, The wind on the haunted hill and The overcoat) were live and ready for me to watch when I visited ZEE5. Each episode had different a storyline which will make you get more into the web series. Just when I was done watching all the three episodes, I was hit by the ZEE5 app notification. Yup, Parchayee episode 4 got premiered on ZEE5 on February 26th, and without any second thoughts, I straight jump into it. So, here is my review of the latest Parchayee Episode 4.

Before I get started with how I felt about the episode, Let me shed some light on the storyline. The narrative revolves around 5 friends who travel to this small village (a hill-station kind area) in Uttarakhand for holidays but little did they know that the place is haunted by a girl. Legend has it that
150 years ago there was a British army officer named Wilson who had visited this village and fell in love with a pahadi girl named Gulabi. Few days after their wedding, Gulabi killed her husband Wilson and jumped into the river from the same Wilson's bridge. This leaves the entire village in shock. From that day on people started seeing her parchhayee (shadow). Some people have also seen her ghost in that village, inside that house where she used to stay with Wilson. What made Gulabi do all that? is a mystery that these friends try to solve.

Believe me, I have tried my best not to reveal any spoilers here, you need to watch this terrific ghost story to know what is going to happen next. I have to give it to the director for making the entire episode an intriguing one. He made sure that the episode is infused with some thrilling elements, giving everything that a horror fan can ask for. Even the cast and crew have done more than a commendable job. I, personally, liked the way Chandan Roy Sanyal is portraying his character and along with Priyanka Bose. In fact, every actor and actress has tried to portray their role so beautifully that you would be able to connect to the characters even more.

But for me, the most important aspect is the music. I mean, a horror or a thriller series can never become an immersive one without good BGM. That is what will send the shivers down your spine. And Parchayee episode 4 got some good music that makes the watch a memorable one. With good production value and storyline better than most movies, Parchayee once again gave me a perfect horror experience.

There we go! The star cast, the location, the story, the direction, the editing, everything is just so amazing to create that excitement of 'what is going to be next' in our mind. I might even give it some extra point for showing the north side of our country so beautifully. Ruskin Bond's all ghost stories are always full of excitement and entertainment. You shouldn't miss out to watch the episode. It gets a thumbs up from my end and would definitely recommend to anyone who has anything to do for the
weekend.

Plum Chamomile & White Tea Calming Anti-oxidant Toner Review

Snigdha's Passion February 26, 2019 Beauty , Plum 23 Comments

Heya girls.. How are you all ? After a long time (I guess) I am doing any skincare product review. That's because I am very particular about my skincare products and don't change them very frequently. If any skincare product suits my skin type, then I do continue using that for a really longer time till I get bored of that.

Plum Chamomile & White Tea Calming Anti-oxidant Toner Review

So recently I have started loving Plum goodness skincare products so much and already using a few. Will review those one by one. . Plum products have natural ingredients and all vegan which attracts me more towards the brand. Well, today I am going to write my opinion on Plum Chamomile & White Tea Calming Anti-oxidant Toner which I am using since more than two months now.

Little about the product :

What I love about this :

Alcohol free toner ,very gentle on skin for everyday use.
Has vitamin B3 which maintain skin tone
Enrich with soothing and calming plant ingredients like chamomile, green tea, rooibos leaf, white tea and olive leaf extracts .
White tea, olive leaf and ginkgo biloba has antioxidant properties which helps skin to fight against free radicals.
Soothes and calms down skin by giving an instant cooling effect.
Paraben-free, phthalate free, SLS free
Convenient packaging
Pricing is good
A little goes a long way

Price - Rs 390/- for 200ml.

Shelf life - 2years from mfg.

Availability - Available on Nykaa.

Ingredients -

My experience -

I have bought this in the first week of December and continuously using after that. It has been almost 3months now and I haven't faced any kind of skin irritation or issues with this toner. This toner is for normal to combination skin type. In winter my skin becomes normal to dry type but this toner went really well with my slightly dry skin type. It is all vegan and has awesome plant based ingredients which gives a nice soothing and calming effect to my skin.

I do apply it after my shower / after washing my face with cleanser and it gives a nice cooling effect instantly which fades away after few seconds only. It has very nice herbal kind fragrance which is so mild. It also relax my skin after any sun exposer .

It is mentioned by the brand that you have to shake the bottle before use and splash on face and let it be absorbed automatically and you don't need to rub it or massage. I apply in the same way and loving it. The toner is almost like water as you can see in the below picture.

The bottle is very convenient to carry and to use too. It has a tic-toc cap which makes it leak-proof while traveling. You have to press from inside and it will open from the other side, isn't it cool ? All the information regarding the product is on the bottle itself.

The toner is really effective on my skin. It might not suit very dry skin type. It minimizes the size of the pores with regular uses. I don't have any skin concerns like acne, pigmentation, etc., hence can't comment on those.

Rating - 4.7/5

Final words - I will definitely recommend this to normal-combination skin type people. It is another great product from Plum.. I must say it is a worth purchase and I will repurchase this for sure...

Hope you found this review helpful, do share your thought in comments below.. See you in the next post with another exciting topic, till then stay beautiful..

Things to remember while Shopping Online..

Snigdha's Passion February 25, 2019 Tips n Tricks , 28 Comments

Due to the hectic and busy lifestyle of these days most of us prefer to shop online . Also now every small small things are available online even you can buy vegetables, milk and all your daily needs online. This makes our life easy but sometimes people fall in scam or fraud. As we know everything has its good side and bad side ,so better to prepare yourself according to the situation and take major precautions.. There are few things to remember while shopping online to avoid any kind of issues. Let's talk about it in detail. .

Things to remember while Shopping Online..

1 - Go with trusted sites :

On the safe note, always go with trusted sites for shopping. Else you can check the new site's review first, and then try with small purchases initially. There are new shopping sites which shows attractive offers all the time to attract the customers but in real they are fraud. So be aware of that.

2 - Compare price :

When you are buying any product from any site, never forget to compare the price of the same product on other sites to avail a great price. There are also sites which helps you to see price of the same product on different sites on one page . So please keep that in mind. Specially if you are buying gadgets, electronics item or any high priced product, this will be really helpful for you..

3 - Read product description thoroughly :

Before buying any product online it is good to read the product description thoroughly to avoid any kind of last minute confusion. Every product available online has their product description, specification, usage section below and it is better to check that while adding to cart.

4 - Read reviews :

Like we read product description, it is also equally important to read the reviews too. Reviews with products pictures are more helpful in choosing right product. Always check that before buying anything. If you are buying anything from any international website, then checking reviews, ratings, pictures are more required because most of the time we do fall under scam through international sites only.

5 - Check Seller's rating :

There are sites where you will get same products from different sellers. In that case , you need to check seller's details and reviews too to check their professionalism.

6 - Check shipping cost of any kind of hidden cost :

Some products has additional shipping charges included and also some has hidden charges which appear at the time of payment, so better to check that beforehand.

7 - Check return policy :

Not every product is returnable or exchangeable. So it's good to check out that beforehand . Always read the terms and conditions properly to avoid any kind of hassle during our after shopping.

8 - Choose sites where your card details are secured :

For online shopping we need to add our card details there for easy payment. So always choose secure payment method . Otherwise you can go with COD option. But not every site has COD option, do keep that in mind.

After being a mom, I hardly get time to go outside for shopping specially, hence I normally prefer online shopping these days. So these are the points I do keep in my mind before shopping online and trust me these helps me a lot to save my money and time.

Hope you found this post helpful for you. See you in the next post with another exciting topic, till then stay beautiful.

Happy shopping ..😄

Xoxo..

Easy Exercises to do during Pregnancy ...

Snigdha's Passion February 23, 2019 Maternity , Parenting 13 Comments

Doing exercises, yoga during pregnancy is very important to keep your body and the baby inside healthy . I have already shared the benefits of doing exercise in the previous post (read HERE). So in today's post I am going to talk about few simple and easy exercises which you can do during pregnancy.

[ Note : Here I want to clear that, I am not an expert nor a doctor.. I am currently on my third trimester of second pregnancy and I am writing this as per my own experience with my first pregnancy and as per my gynecologist's advice. You can consult your gynecologist before doing any kind of activity during pregnancy to avoid any risk. ]

Easy Exercises to do during Pregnancy ...

You should avoid doing exercises during pregnancy if you have any complications like bleeding, Diabetis, heart issue, asthma, etc.

So let's move towards the topic and find below few simple exercises which can make your pregnancy journey smoother and healthier.

1 : Walking - Walking is the one of the best exercise during pregnancy. You can do this through out your all trimesters . But it is good to start walking around 6months onwards of pregnancy. Always wear comfortable shoes and choose a plain surface to walk. Don't walk till you become breathless. If possible take a small break in between and relax a bit. Carrying a water bottle is must. 20-25minutes walk in one session is sufficient .

2 : Swimming - Swimming is another great way to exercise. Walking in water is effortless and effective for body. But for that you need an expert to guide. If you are comfortable in swimming before conceiving then it is not difficult for you do this. Before swimming, do make sure you have your meal at least one hour before .

3 : Prenatal Yoga - Doing meditation, breathing yoga, butterfly yoga is really beneficial during last trimester. Meditation bring calmness in mind which helps you feel fresh and calm through out the day. For breathing yoga you need to hold your breath for smaller span of time (around 1min. or so) and leave that. You can also do Anulombilom. This will help to hold breath during delivery. In the same way butterfly yoga helps to relax the muscles around lower abdomen area and is beneficial to get a comfortable delivery. Another thing is, you can stretch your legs and hands by sitting on the floor. This will relax your muscles and make you feel free .

4 - Low Impact Aerobics - This kind aerobics doesn't include jumping, fast running, high kicking, etc. In this kind one foot always touches the ground. There are special aerobics institutions for pregnant women. For these kind of aerobics, you will need an expert's supervision. Low impact aerobics is very much necessary during pregnancy and it relax the muscles around pelvic area..

5 : Squatting and Pelvic tilt exercises - These exercises prepare your body for labor . Squatting helps to open up pelvic during labor easily. Pelvic tilt exercise relax the lower abdominal muscles and reduce back pain.. You can do those exercises at per your convinent at any time of the day .

For squatting, you can start this when you are in your >36 weeks, that's what my gynac told me. Take 5 mins. throughout the day and do this several times.. This will also help the baby to come downward easily which helps you for a normal delivery.

For pelvic tilt, you can do that after entering your third trimester as per my gynac. For this you can sleep on the bed (obviously a flat surface )or any comfortable place and put your legs on the wall and try to move the foot upward direction like you are walking on the wall. Hope that's making sense to you. I am not so good in explaining things.. You can do this after taking your meals or anytime of the day. .

Before going for any kind of exercise or yoga, you need to remember that not to exhaust the body. You need to know your limit to stop . It is so important to drink sufficient amount of water to keep body hydrated through out the day and eat healthy and nutritious to get a healthy baby.

Happy Pregnancy ..❤

Hope you found this post helpful. See you with more #PregnancyGuide posts very soon. Till then stay happy and healthy..

How Important is doing Exercise During Pregnancy..!!

Snigdha's Passion February 20, 2019 Maternity , Parenting 23 Comments

Doing exercises regularly is good for body but it is more beneficial when you are pregnant. Doctors usually advice to do exercises during the whole pregnancy journey to get a normal and easy delivery. But in some cases we do hesitate to do exercise in the fear of getting misscarriages or any complications, etc. .

How Important is doing Exercise During Pregnancy..!!

Eating healthy , relaxing properly is important during pregnancy but along with that doing simple exercises regularly is equally important. If you are a fit person before conceiving, then it is more necessary to continue that even during the 9 months of time. Exercise or yoga during pregnancy keep our body and mind in peace and we feel more energetic than before. . Here I have listed down few benefits of doing exercise during pregnancy..

1 - Boost energy and make you feel active :

During pregnancy we often feel tired and non-enrgetic, but if you are doing exercise regularly for a certain period of time, then you will feel more active than before and it also helps to strengthen the cardiovascular system and keep your mind in happy stage all day long.

2 - Gives good sleep :

During pregnancy another issue happens which is sleeping discomfort. But with regular exercise and yoga you will get a nice sleep too. The muscles will relax and becomes flexible with regular exercise which tends to sleep you well. In the same way if you sleep well, then your mind will be in peace which is very much necessary during pregnancy to avoid the mood swings

3 - Helps to get a natural and easy delivery :

Doctors usually advice to start doing exercise after the first trimester. Initially you need to start with smaller sessions and then you can increase the session gradually with passing time. Here we are not exercising to loose weight but to stay active and fit. Regular exercise will make the lower abdomen muscles flexible and relax which will make the delivery period shorter and easier. This is something I have experienced on my own during my first pregnancy to be very honest. Regular exercise also decrease the fear of any last minute complications during pregnancy.

4 - Makes easy to get back in shape :

During pregnancy weight gain is very normal but if you are doing exercises regularly through out the 9months, then it will be easier for you to get back in shape after delivery.

5 - Along with all these, regular exercise helps to relax the muscles of body, reduce backache and body ache , constipation, stress, etc.

Walking is the best exercise as per doctors or health advisers during pregnancy. Along with that there are certain exercises and prenatal yogasanas which helps you and your body through out the 9 months of pregnancy.

Also one thing to remember that, never do exercise till you feel exhausted or never go breathless too ,this might cause serious issues in pregnancy. Do make sure to know your limit and have high calorie food in between to get a happy and healthy pregnancy. 😊

Will share few must do exercises and yogasanas according to the trimesters of pregnancy in the next post ,so stay tuned...

*I am not an expert or doctor . I have shared this as per my own experience.. It is always good to take your doctor or health adviser's permission before doing anything during pregnancy.

Plan Your Finances with Mason Finance

Snigdha's Passion February 14, 2019 Finance , Insurance Policy 28 Comments

* Sponsored Post

Life is very much unpredictable and we have no control over it . Hence the wisest decision is to protect future by planning your finances in proper way. People normally buy life insurance policies to secure their future and their family's future. But are you sure that you are planning your finance in a right way or not ? Ask this question to yourself and you will gonna blank i am sure.

Planning Your Finances with Mason Finance

well. leave that.. just imagine ,when you will become financially weak and not able to cover the monthly premiums ,then.. This case happens mostly after age 60-65 when a person take retirement from his/her job. That time there is an option to sell your policies and to get a surrender value of your life insurance policy. Are you finding all these terms difficult to understand ? Let me clear everything for you..

There are several reasons to sell the policy in the middle . Like i said earlier ,if one is unable to pay the premiums , then can sell their policy. Again if someone has a need of urgent money and has no cash near by ,then that person can sell his/her policy . Another reason is , if you have no one in immediate relatives or closed ones who can claim your policy after your death ,then you can sell your policy to get the cash surrender value to full-fill your needs.

These are all the reasons to sell your insurance policy ,then you must be wondering on, what is cash surrender value. So let's talk about that.

Cash surrender value of life insurance policy is the amount of cash that you can withdraw if you surrender your policy to your insurance company and allow it to lapse . When you surrender your policy ,you will no need to pay the further premiums. The cash value you are getting after surrendering will vary according to variety of factors. When you pay any type of cash value life insurance policy such as universal life policy or whole life policy , some of the money of your premium goes to the death benefit protection of your policy. Some money goes under different costs of your policy. And the rest amount is deposited into the cash value of the account. You will get more cash value if your policy is more older. Such as if your policy is 30 years old ,then you will get much more higher cash value that your 5years old policy.

If you are worrying about the taxation of your cash surrender value , then no need to worry ,because most of the time the cash surrender value comes under tax free . Isn't it great ?

Well, there are so many companies and agencies which can help you to plan your finances, to sell your policies and to get your cash surrender value ,etc. But you never know who are fraud or not and their charges also very high. In this case Mason Finance comes into limelight .

With Mason finance you can get a clear view of your estimation within minutes. Everything is so transparent there and you will get all detailed information regarding your settlement and cash value without much effort. Hence you can consider Mason finance if you are interested in planning your finance or selling your policies,etc..

Maxel Professional Electric Body Trimmer Review (Video Inside )

Snigdha's Passion February 12, 2019 Body trimmer , Gromming and personal care 20 Comments

Hello pretty ladies.. how are you all doing ? Just tell me one thing very honestly that , do you love waxing or epilating during winter specially ? I don't like to do at all . I prefer either shaving or trimming my body. It's too cold and i just can't bear the pain any more.. In fact by the time i came to know that i am pregnant , I stopped waxing and epilating my skin as i believe that if i will hurt then my baby will feel the pain too. I don't know if it is true or not but that's completely my thinking.. Another reason is I don't get time to visit salon these days because of my naughty toddler at home . Hence I prefer trimming my skin at the end..

Maxel Professional Electric Body Trimmer Review (Video Inside )

My last trimmer has broken ,so I bought another one from amazon . I had also un-boxing and reviewed that in my insta story and some of you asked me review this on blog.. So let's start to know more about this Maxel Professional Electric Body Trimmer..

Price - Rs1499/- but I got it on discounted price at Rs379/- from amazon.

Available on Amazon, Flipkart , Snapdeal

My Experience with Maxel Professional Electric Trimmer

I always like to trim my body and very much afraid of waxing and epilating the skin. Those are really painful for me . Few months ago my previous trimmer was broken and then i searched for a good body trimmer online. There are so much options in body trimmer available and their price is also on higher side. Then i found this Maxel professional electric trimmer on amazon . I like the the trimmer's look and it was electric operated which attracts me more. The price was very affordable as compared to the other trimmer i had selected. Though the reviews were not that much great, I decided to try this out. I ordered it and after receiving it I am using this trimmer very frequently and it is working perfectly fine for me.

The trimmer comes in a cardboard box . You will get a manual card, a cleaning brush and a cable to charge along with the trimmer inside the package . The trimmer is made up of plastic and tiny and very handy to hold while applying . There is two blade heads on both the sides of the trimmer head which helps to cut the hair as close as possible from skin. There is also a plastic cap which helps to store the trimmer safe and the blades away from dust. It carries power for 4-5 sessions easily which is really great. It is completely painless as we know ,in trimming the blade doesn't touch the skin but remove the hair very closely. You definitely not get the waxing like finish on skin but as a trimmer it does its work beautifully.

I will definitely recommend this to everyone who is looking for a good body trimmer. It is affordable and of good quality and performance is well.

Here I am penning down and I hope you found this post helpful. See you in the next post, till then stay beautiful.

Nelf USA Colossal Eyeliner Blue Sapphire Review and Swatches

Snigdha's Passion February 06, 2019 Coloured Eyeliners , eyeliner 24 Comments

Hi guys,

Today I am going to share my experience with Nelf USA colossal eyeliner in shade 'Blue Sapphire ' . I got this inside one of my fab bags last year and have not used it till now. Few days ago while decultering my makeup stash, I found this one and started using . So here is my experience with this eyeliner cum kajal pencil.

Nelf USA Colossal Eyeliner Blue Sapphire Review and Swatches

Price - Rs150/- for 1.1gms.
Shelf life - 3 years from mfg.

Availability - Not easily available.. Got it inside fab bag ,so do check out fabbag's website.

Packaging -

The Nelf USA colossal eyeliner comes in a regular pencil form. Initially when I got it, I thought it is a retractable pencil but it's not actually . You have to sharpen it every time which i don't like to do. Another thing is the tip is quite bend kind in mine . i don't know if mine is a defective one or these are like this only. There is no sharpener with this liner which is again a down point. There is an outer cardboard box which has all the info regarding the product.

Shade , Texture , Pigmentation & Staying Ability :

The shade Blue Sapphire is a very pretty vibrant teal green shade . It has very fine shimmers in it which is not harsh on skin yet looking little shiny. I love the colour . The texture is so creamy and soft . It glides on eyelids like butter and doesn't tag or pull. As it is so soft ,you need to be careful while applying otherwise it will break . It gives so smooth and precise application.

The colour is decently pigmented . It looks more vibrant on hand swatch but not look that much brighter on eyelids. Because of the creamy texture ,it doesn't stay more time on eyes. Means if you have oily eyelids then the staying time is less as compared to dry eye lids. It is not waterproof or smudge proof but also not remove away easily .

Pros..-

1- Beautiful bright teal green shade
2- Creamy ,soft texture
3- Glides smoothly on eyelids
4- Decently pigmented
5- Affordable

Cons..-

1- Not available easily
2- Have to sharpen each time
3- No sharpener provided along with
4- Not waterproof or smudge-proof .

Rating - 2/5

Final Verdict - I like the shade but not the packaging . And also we can have better options at this price from other brands too. I won't recommend anyone to try out this range ..

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream 'Cannes' Review & Swatches

Snigdha's Passion February 02, 2019 Lips , Lipstick 29 Comments

Hi girls, hope you are doing good. I am super excited today because ,after a really long gap I am going to review a lip product. As you all know I am a lipstick addict person . I do buy lipsticks, lip creams, lip liners very often but these days I have controled the shopaholic inside me and stopped buying things randomly. Well, during the New Year sale I guess I bought few makeup stuffs from nykaa and other websites.

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream 'Cannes' Review & Swatches

So that time I got this NYX soft matte lip cream in shade Cannes and along with this I got another lipstick from NYX of same price as free.. Isn't it cool ? I love NYX soft matte lip cream range. I have already three shades from this range, hence I was quite sure about the quality and grab this nudish shade this time.. Do read below to find out whether it was a smart purchase by me or not .

Price - Rs600/-

Available on Nykaa.com

Packaging -

The NYX soft matte lip cream has the regular liquid lipstick packaging. As these are colour coded hence easy to choose the shade. The cap is matte velvety black colour which makes it look classy. The applicator is the regular one but applies perfectly in lips. Few information is on the tube itself. The shade name is written at the bottom of lip cream.

Shade & Texture -

The shade Cannes is a really pretty nudish pink shade with warm undertones. It is a regular wear kind shade, not very overwhelming which I like the most. You can carry to work without any hesitation. On the tube itself looks more brown-ish kind but in real it has pink tone in it. I love how natural it looks on my lips. It has very sweet vanilla fragrance which I like .

Like the name said ,it has creamy texture and mousse consistency. It feels like butter on lips. It glides very smoothly on lips without tugging or pulling. It settles into a powdery matte finish look. This is really light weight on lips and doesn't feel dry either. But if you have dry lips like mine, I would suggest to prep your lips before hand to get that fuller plumy lips and also lipstick stays longer in moisturised lips.

Pigmentation & Staying Ability -

The shade is quite pigmented. You need two swipes to bring the full opacity. After settle down it stays for around 6-7 hours without any heavy meals in between. The shade is not fully transfer-proof but stay intact for longer time.

Overall I love this shade. I can wear it all day long and these days I am wearing it non-stop. Very pretty nude shade I have came across so far.. Do get one for yourself without any hesitation.

Rating - 4.7/5 😊

Hope you found this review helpful. See you in the next post with another exciting topic. Till then stay beautiful ..

Xoxo.. 😄

This is a beautiful burgundy colour Maxi dress with lace and patch work on the upper half. The material is polyester . I love such flowy gowns these days.

It is priced around 21$ which is quite affordable and per the quality and design.

2. Surplice Plain Maxi Dress :

I love such solid pattern maxi dresses as these look simple yet classy. Black is my colour, hence I choose this one. I love the finishing and fall of this dress. One thing I want to mention here that, you will get everything tiny detail on the site only with pictures and you can know the quality of the material from the pictures only. There are three colours available but I choose black colour as this is looking more feminine. This is priced for 23$.

3. Summer Vintage V-Neck Floral Printed Skater Dress :

This is a very pretty floral skater dress in navy blue colour. I love the print over it . It will look so beautiful I am sure and giving a nice summer feeling. The neck is v neck and the material seems thick and of good quality. . This is for around 20$.

4. Summer V-Neck Floral Printed Chiffon Maxi Dress :

This is a perfect dress for summer, isn't it? Floral chiffon dresses are my fav during summer specially an these feel so light weight on skin. The print is so beautiful and I love the design at the neck .. There are also 4 colours available but I choose the yellow one as I love bright vibrant colours for summer.

5. Crew Neck Fashion Printed Shift Dress :

After selecting so many long maxi dresses ,finally choose one short dress too. This the crew neck printed shift dress . The print and the flowy-ness is perfect for summer wear. I will get it for my vacations specially.. This is of good quality and comfortable..

That's all in my wishlist and I have ordered two from these already. . Currently there are some sales also going on which can give you a discount on your selected product. So don't miss out the chance and put an order right now.. And tell me which one you like the most from my wishlist..?
