Product of the Week #2


My skin went bonkers this week. It just dried up like a Sahara. The tops of my cheekbones and the center of my forehead could be used as a sandpaper and the skin is ridiculously flaky there. The only moisturising enough foundation/BB I own is Holika Holika Peach Girl BB cream and it works like a treat on such skin. As much as it was to heavy for usage in the Summer, it's great for Winter months. It doesn't emphasise any dryness, but it creates a smooth canvas to work on. I use a heavy moisturiser underneath, usually one of my oils that I use for my night routine. The coverage is pretty flawless, but it doesn't scream I'm wearing a heavy foundation. It does leave your skin tacky for quite a while, though. The lasting power is very good, it lasts all day on my skin. Original review here.

Thanks for reading!

New Luscious Whitening Base for Oily/Combination Skin ~ Review

Image
A year or two ago when i got the Luscious Whitening Base, i looked at it and wished it came in a bigger tube..Im Happy that Luscious Cosmetics released it in a bigger better tube :) Lets see how this one performs! Whats they Say? Save Your Skin!  Sun damage has become a big part of our lives due to pollution and the environment. No matter what your age is, you are at risk of sun damage (dark patches and uneven skin tone) every time you step out without a good sun block. Here to the rescue is Luscious Whitening Base SPF 35. All in One:  • Oil-free Moisturiser  • High performance Sun Protection  • Makeup Primer The benefits: The list is endless. With continued use, you will see a visibly clearer and fairer complexion, as well as smoother skin texture. ShyCheeeks Experience Im really happy they actually changed the tube, the previous one was a little hard to squeeze and was for 'All Skin Types' Now this comes for Oily/Combination and for Dry Skin I like the concept...

How to stop Nail polish chipping off

Image
Hey there my Sweet Readers! Today's Question was to recommend a good base coat to protect nails, my follower Sidrah.N did try a few but they ended up chipping the nail polish in a day..Her nail polish never lasted long...She has used Sweet Touch and Medora. And she would like to know if there is a top coat that can help keep nail polishes lasting longer?  What i Do  for nails; i really don't use any base coat because i don't apply dark nail polishes, dark nail polishes are more likely to stain your nails..so what i do is just buffer my nails before applying nail color. and make sure i don't put on heavy coats of nail polish..if i apply heavy coats it surely chips off the next day :(  What do you use to make your nail polish last longer? Share your experience, we would love to hear it..and it surely would be helpful to us all! If you want to ask any question, feel free to ask ShyCheeeks..hope i'll be of some help! Will be waiting for your comments/ questions/ opinio...

I get questions from my sweet readers about Beauty and Fashion related stuff..And i thought why not sharing with you guys, so you can also be of some help :) I'll share with you the most frequently asked question today! 'Suggest any good Makeup Brushes available in Pakistan' I would say, try getting your hands on Kryolan Brushes..they use Sable Bristles, which are very soft and perfect for personal and professional makeup application..and i've heard professional salon people call Kryolan brushes comparable to MAC Brushes..I know a kryolan shop in Karachi, i can tell you the address if anyones interested. If you dont want to spend too much on makeup brushes, but you cant compromise the quality, then another option is to go for Luscious Brush Set, they use synthetic bristles for their brushes..i have reviewed it  here  :) What do you guys use and would recommend or ...
