Celebrity Makeup look #3 - Aishwarya Rai

I always love traditional makeup and outfit. They give us an innocent look which one can rarely get from modern or western outfits. You will often see me in traditional looks. This picture of bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai really attracted me and I was compelled to select it for my celebrity look post.




The makeup on her face here is very pretty and making her look innocent & fresh. So now you want to know that if I do this makeup with some limited makeup stuff which I have, what cosmetics I’ll use for this look. So take a look:

Face-

For the face I’ll choose my Chambor liquid foundation to apply all over my face but before that I’ll not forget to apply a good moisturizer under it. I have 4 foundations at present but Chambor’s shade is the exact one like this look. Then concealer..and Revlon Colorstay will be the best for me. A light touch of my Naturactor pressed powder will give the final finish to my face.

Eyes-

For my eyes, I’ll prime my eyes with Chambor stick foundation then apply a peach shade from Dare to Dream palette from Oriflame on the inner corner of my lids. Then I’ll apply some shimmer brown shadow from Chambor trio on the outer corner of lids. On the middle part of my lids, I’ll apply light gold shadow from Oriflame palette &the same shade will be on my brow bone and then I’ll blend them softly.

I’ll define my eyes with Mac gel eyeliner and wear my Revlon eyelashes and give them shape with Maybeline Colossal mascara. I’ll apply black kohl from Revlon in my waterline and comb my brow to give a final touch.

Cheeks-

First of all I’ll use Mac Sur blush on my cheeks and then highlight them with Mac Trace Me Gold blush and blend them well.

Lips-

Here I’ll make an outline of my lips with the lip liner from Colobar then apply two lipsticks’ mixture to get the right shade of Aishwarya’s lips. First a very light touch of the lipstick from Chambor Ultimate Matte long lasting and then a nude shade lipstick from MUFE #24 and I’M DONE!!

That was the way to get this makeup look of Aishwarya Rai…what about you? Have you got any suggestions for this look. I’ll really want to know so please don’t hesitate to give your precious advise for this look!!

Oriflame beauty lip balm- Review and pics

Hi ladies,

Today’s post is just a short review on Oriflame Beauty lip balm.

Many of my friends are Oriflame representatives and like using it’s products. Similarly one of my friends once gave me this lip balm around 4-5 months back. Although I don’t suffer from dry lips problems much but still thought of trying this out.

What it claims-

Give your lips smooth, rich, glossy care which soothes and nourishes whenever you need it. Helps protect against the effects of the urban environment with Aloe and vitamins A & E.

My Experience-

I’ve been using Lotus and Himalaya lip balms and liked them very much. But after using this I must say that even this one has impressed me quite a lot. It totally lives up to its claim and is very moisturizing. Does not dry up my lips in winters.

Pros-

Very moisturizing and hydrating.

Love the packaging and i must say that it is even hygienic than the potted ones where you have to apply it with your finger.

Handy and can be carried anywhere.

Gives a nice sheen to my lips after applying.

It also smells good.

Decently priced- Rs 179 but you can get it on a discount many times especially in winters.

Cons-

Does not last too long usually 2-3 hours but as it is easy to apply it that’s no big problem.

Rating-4.25/5

Will I repurchase it-

Yeah, it’s very good for me during winters. :D

Will I recommend it-

Yes I would surely tell you guys to try it out if you have dry or patched lips problems.

So this was my experience with this lip balm. Have you tried this? Which other lip balms do you use?

Hope this review helps :D Have a great day!!

xoxo Rakhshanda
