NOTW Week 53

 




Hey all, I hopped onto the cookie crumble train really late. I was under the impression that these were only available in pastels and you know how I feel about non-colours. Today I'm wearing this gorgeous turquoise green cookie crumble polish from Kalobio. 

I love this polish. It goes on opaque in a single coat & lasts at least 5 days straight without chipping. It has a standard flat round brush. No complaints. 



For some reason there is no mention of any shade number or name anywhere by the brand (must be one heck of a job to take inventory!) A single 11 ml bottle retails for INR 135 but I bought a set of 6 for INR 500 from Meesho

March 2022 Empties

 Empty number 2 - 8 for 2022

Today Body Milk (500 ml) 

Bought this a long time back from Germany. It's extremely rich & I can only use it here in winters. Glad to have finally used it up. Great product, might just pick it up if I come across it again. 

Good Vibes Lip Balm in Pina Colada

INR 99 for 

I bought this after incessant "Good Vibes Jai Jai" from sundry beauty bloggers & influences. While the products of this brand are decent, they definitely don't come under the Must Buy category for me. Pass, I've used better. 



Beloved Bliss Intense Skin Cream in Jasmine and Cocoa

50 gm

This was insanely low priced & I picked it up just to see how it performs. Just a regular cold cream, nothing fancy. I HATE the smell though - IMHO jasmine just does not pair well with every other scent & both Jasmine as well as Cocoa should be left well alone instead of assaulting the senses of consumers. Never repurchasing again.

Dexe Lip balm

I really like this one. I have used pretty much every variant & they all are good. I haven't been able to find this one anywhere. Still have 2 more of these.

Kotakkal Keshyam Hair Oil

I converted into a hair oil lover some years back when it helped a nasty hair situation I was going through. I love this one. All natural ingredients and from the house of Kotakkal. I couldn't have asked for more. Will happily repurchase.

Patanjali Saundarya Multani Mitti Face Scrub

I love the scent of this but the scrub particles are super abrasive. Not something I would want to use on my facial skin. It also behaves like a foaming face wash and gives me squeaky clean, dry, taut skin.... & I have oily skin. I can only imagine how it must be on dry skin. I finished using this up by using as a shower gel. Are you kidding me, no repurchase ever.

Luster Argan & Honey Face Wash 

I bought a set of 10 of these face washed on a crazy deal on amazon. I was curious to see how such a cheap SLS free  product would perform. Not well. Extremely drying & it foams like crazy. Finished it up by using as a shower gel. 

Cheers.
