I have a mini set from Huda Beauty and a couple of full-sized lipsticks too and I do like them. They are not my favorite liquid lipsticks but they are really good. The staying power of the lipsticks is amazing and they are not too drying. The only con can be the expensive price of the lipstick

I bought 3 shades from the MAC Liptensity collection as soon as they were launched in India. This formula from MAC has amazingly high pigmentation and staying power. They are not the easiest to glide on the lips and might take some effort in the application, but once applied they stay for long hours. These lipsticks are priced at Rs 2050 in India

This is a high pigmentation lipstick from MAC. I have used almost all the formulas from MAC and all of them including the Mineralize Rich Lipstick is amazing. I have the shade Be fabulous from the collection and I love the shade on me. Like all the other MAC Lipsticks, these ones are pricey too, but they are amazing quality and works really well.

Wet N Wild Photofocus Natural Finish Setting Spray is one of the products that I bought from the brand as it was affordable. Yes, the price range of the product is good, but I personally am not a fan of this setting spray. Wet N Wild setting spray somehow manages to play with my foundation making it kind of patchy in some areas. I do not recommend this product.

This is another setting spray that I am not a fan of. LA girl setting spray is priced at Rs 850 which is not exactly too affordable and it does not even perform well for me. The brand is good but this setting spray makes my makeup look not so good. I am not a fan of this product and I would not recommend it.

Apart from my Urban Decay setting spray, this is the one setting spray that I love. Though this does not perform as good but it is comparatively affordable and does help in extending the staying power of the foundation. This is a good setting spray if you are not looking for a matte finish in your makeup. It gives a dewy healthy glow to the skin.

MAC Retro Matte Lipsticks are one of the mattest lip formulas available with MAC. I have the shade Relentellesly Red from the collection which is a pretty pink-red.

Like all the MAC Lipsticks this one too is an expensive lipstick but is good for someone who is looking for a lighter color payoff and lota of moisturization. I personally am not a fan of this formula as this does not stay long on my lips and I hate to reapply lipstick after every couple of hours.

MAC Huggable Lipcolour is some of the newest formulae from MAC and I haven't tried it for long enough to actually love it.

The shade Creme cup is the only MAC lipstick I have in the creme sheen formula. This formula is very lightweight and moisturizing.

Morange is a bright orange-colored lipstick from MAC's Amplified range. The amplified range differs from the other MAC lipstick in the intensity and the color pay off. They are super pigmented lipsticks and stay for super-super long. I am a fan of orange colors and Morange is pure love for me.

I have been using Bobbi Brown shimmer bricks for more than 3 years now and I love the product to the core. It is my go-to blush/highlighter whenever I have a special occasion to attend. As it is very sparkly and shiny I do not use it on a daily basis and hence I still haven't hit pan on it. It is a multipurpose product and can be used on cheeks as well as eyes.

MAC Matte Lipsticks are high pigmented lipsticks that have a long staying power. These lipsticks stay easily for 6-7 hours. They might not be the best option for dry lips, but with a lip balm, they do work well. I have a couple of shades from MAC Matte Lipsticks and the one I use the most is Diva.

Anything from MAC cosmetics is a win-win and this MAC Satin Lipstick is no exception. These lipsticks are decently pigmented.

I am not a fan of Fair & Lovely products, not just due to the fact that they promote the concept of the fair being beautiful but also because their products never worked well for me. This BB Cream from the brand is no different. I did not like the way this bb cream made my skin look. It accentuated my pores and made me look patchy. The product might be affordable but there are several products available in the market which are far better than this.

I am a makeup collector and there is almost nothing that I am able to completely finish until I really really love it. MAC Mineralize skin finish is one such product.

I received this BB cream in my Fab Bag a couple of years ago and I absolutely did not like it. It somehow irritates my skin and makes it feel greasy.

And it is affordable too!

NYX is one of my favourite brands as far as the makeup industry is concerned. NYX Professional Makeup Blotting Powder is something that I always carry with me in my purse. I do not use it to set my makeup but use it several times a day to blot away excess oil from my t-zone. As it does not have a color, it does not make up my makeup look cakey.

Lakme Rose Powder is one of the products that I used when I just started with makeup. I am not a fan of Lakme products but as this was the most affordable product available in the market back then, I had a couple of backups of this. The product is a loose powder and does work decently well in setting the makeup, but apart from that, I do not recommend the product for anything. Its bulky packaging makes it not suitable to travel with.

The waxing kit is said to comprise of strips that are sufficient for both hands and legs but unfortunately, the strips available in the pack are not sufficient enough.

Veet wax strips are a must-have for any emergency situations. This is not a permanent solution especially because they do not give long-lasting results and also do not work well for shorter hair. I personally prefer normal waxing above these wax strips, but these are good for the days when you want a smooth hand and have no time to go to a salon.

Philips Brt382/15 Bikini Trimmer is again a handy product for bikini hair removal. It helps in cleaning off the bikini area without the pain of waxing. Though it does work decently well it does not give a perfect finish. The smallest of hair still remains even after several attempts. Though I do recommend this product, care must be taken while using it as the bikini area is sensitive and a slight mistake can severely hurt.

I have been using Veet Hair Removal Cream since I started removing my body hair. Though I have sensitive skin I like to use the normal skin variant as this is the one that suits me better.

Being a makeup reviewer, I have tried and tested a lot of foundations and this by far is the best full coverage foundation I have ever tried. It is a product that can cover even tattoos.

Also, it is on the pricier side and thus good for special occasions only!

The Body Shop body butter is my absolute favorite. I usually have multiple variants of these body butter at the same time and I go through them pretty often.

I am not a fan of Lakme products but as these lip crayons were in the affordable range I bought the full collection. After trying all the shades from the collection, I can say that the formula and consistency of all the shades are the same. The formula feels light on the lips but I somehow am not very impressed with the product. The shade range is also very average and the staying power is not very good too. The product is good for college going girls and for someone who has just started doing makeup, but not for somehow who does not like to reply.

I had the shade patina from Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick collection. I am not too sure whether it is the shade or the formula of the lipstick. I absolutely hate the lipstick on me. Firstly the shade does not suit me at all, it washes me out. Also, the formula did not work well for me. The lipstick settled in all the fine lines of my lips and accentuated every flaw. I have tried the lipstick with the lip balm as well as without the lip balm and neither of the ways have worked for me. I did not like the product and hence cannot recommend it.

The LA Girl Pro Coverage HD foundation is a close dupe for Makeup Forever HD foundation, the former being way cheaper than the later one. The foundation has a lightweight formula and stays intact for a long period of time. The foundation comes at a price tag of Rs 1250, which is not exactly super cheap, but being an HD foundation, the price tag is completely justified. Though the foundation can work well on its own too, I would recommend using a face primer underneath to make the foundation stay even longer. It is an amazing product for parties and also works well with flash photography.

Colourpop super shock eyeshadows are some of my favorite eyeshadow formulae. The shadows are available in a huge number of color options and are super affordable too. The eyeshadows are easy to blend and work well with the majority of other eyeshadow formulas. unfortunately, the eyeshadows are not so easily available in the Indian market, but they can either be ordered from colourpop's official website (they ship to India) or can also be bought from many Instagram sellers.

Lakme launched 15 shades of these lipsticks initially and I bought all the 15 for review purpose. I am not a fan of Lakme Lipsticks, but these lipsticks are comparatively better than many other lip products from Lakme. Consistency of the product varies from shade to shade, some of the lighter shade products being better than the darker ones. These lipsticks have a decent stay power and are decently affordable too

MAKE UP FOR EVER Ultra HD Invisible Cover Foundation has been in my makeup wishlist since the brand was not even launched in India. Now, after using the product for more than 2 years, I can proudly say that I am in love with the product. It is one of the best HD foundations available in the market. It has a long staying power and looks good in Flash photography. The foundation is on the pricier side and thus might not be the best option for everyone. But if you can afford a 4000 bucks foundation, then this is a must-have!
Lightweight
Does not cause dryness
Gives a healthy glow
Long lasting power
Expensive
Perfect for flash photography
I love trying new face washes and pears have always been in my love list. I am currently using this Oil Clear Glow Face wash from pears and am loving it. The best part of this face wash is that it works well even with my sensitive skin and can even work with Clarisonic device. The formula is light on the skin and does not dry skin. The only negative about this product is that it does not lather too well.
