Top 5 under 100

 Not something I post about usually but who doesn't like a good deal? 

Insight Eyeshadow Base Primer 

INR 99 for 7 gm

I always used concealer as a base from the beginning of time. Remember the mad craze for Painterly Paint Pot from MAC? Been there, done that. I only picked this up on a whim (because it was so affordable) & because I could feel the side eye from Robert Welsh. 

The texture is exactly like L'Oréal Base Magique Primer and this one makes my eye makeup last longer. Even with oily lids & hot weather. Winner! 

Insight Multi-Use Loose Eyeshadow #05 Gemstone 

INR 125 for 7 gm

OK, this one goes slightly over the 100 mark but its always on sale around 99 bucks. This one's amazing. You can use it as eyeshadow or liner. Some of the other paler shades can even be used as highlighter. How is this brand doing it? 

Beromt Super Stay Matte Mini in Sexy Secretary

INR 150 for 1.6 ml (available on their website for INR 99)

When they say mini, they truly mean mini. But I'm not complaining. As someone who has never finished a lipstick, ever; this feels like I can actually finish using it up. The formula is ultra matte but it doesn't feel drying on the lips & it's insanely pigmented. For some reason the brand describes this colour as peach nude while it's a brown based red IRL. 

P. S : You will be saving on shipping if you buy from their website. The base price seems to be lower as well. 

Beromt Holo Chunky Nail Polish Topper

INR 50 for 1.5 ml  (available for INR 30 on their website) 

I love toppers of any kind & these offer something new. It comes with colour shifting chunky holo glitter in translucent polish. I love how the glitter lies flat on nails despite it's size. The quantity could have been more (seriously 1.5 ml reads like eye makeup quantity) but it's good for the price. 

NY Bae Erasin' Nail Lacquer Remover Pads

INR 99 for 30 pads (please pick up on BOGO) 

Wow, oh wow. I have used nail polish remover pads in the past with terrible results. This one is amazing though. Not only does it remove nail polish in a jiffy it also leaves your nail & nail bed area super moisturised. This was a total life saver on a recent trip. 

What are your go to affordable products? 

First order from Smytten

 Hey all, today I'm sharing a few products I ordered from smytten. For someone who has just finished a whole year of No Buy and transitioning into Low Buy, this was ideal for me. I'm not looking to buy full sized products anytime soon (heck I have barely made a dent in my mountain of products even after a whole year of not buying anything).

When you sign up on Smytten you get 6 credit points which you can use to get various products. You only have to pay for shipping (which is INR 200 + GST). Since it was my first order GST was waived off and I only paid INR 200 for these 6 products. Also after your order is delivered 200 points will be added as cashback points which can be redeemed with further orders. I also received a small pink pouch as free gift with my order.
