EOTD and My First Make-over party :D

Heyy Lovelies how was your weekend? Mine was great and I troubled my hubby a lot. hehhe. This is actually a long delayed post as this event happened more than a week ago but I was a bit tied up and a little lazy so doing this now

I wasnt aware of this concept called  a make-over party or rather a get-together. This was when I went to my zumba session Liz who is my favourite trainer and my only friend in the tower *sob sob*  mentioned about a small event for the ladies which comprised of a mini massage, a make-up session and yummy snacks with music and stuff. I saw this as an opportunity to meet people even though frankly me and hubby dear didnt think it’ll be much of a make-over.

So on the day I showered and showed up at the venue.. and it was beautifully decorated with rose petals and lovely colors and candles.

Then we kinda had a meet and greet where I met many beautiful ladies and we all had a lot of fun and some yummy snacks.

Then we had a very mini kinda neck massage which I dont think is worth mentioning that much.

Well, then we went to my favourite part the make-over

This was actually a launch pad for a new range of cosmetics launched recently called as “MERIXY COSMETICS” Its actually a new-york based cosmetics range which is recently launched and they have their show-room very close to where I stay. you can find the complete range here: http://www.merixy.com

And the lovely ladies who handle the business in miami:

At first I observed a few ladies get their make-up done as I wanted to clear my doubts about the range and also to learn a few steps.

And then we began my make up session :d

The final look:

And since we didnt plan much that day I asked her to do my other eye in a different color just for experiment

and the FOTD

And then we just posed for the cam

I really had a great time at the event and definitely loved the look.

About MERIXY COSMETICS: they seem to be a fine range of products as all the products that were used on me suited me well and also blended well with my complexion. They also have moisturizers and toners which are selling fast  A special mention to their CONCEALERS which did a great job of hiding all the blemishes and dark circles and a lot of ladies bought those. Also their Eye shadows and pigments are very vibrant and have great staying power. After I came home I cooked an entire meal and after more than 4 hours it did not crease.  only when I accidentally rubbed my eye a little mixing happened. So i am looking forward to purchase a few products myself..

Hope you liked my li’l fun outing.. HAve fun gals..

Love,

Bee

ADIDAS MENS Y3 TRAINERS – review

The first one we took was:   Y3 MENS SALA BLACK TRAINERS.

The second pair was:  Y3 MENS RED BLACK TRAINERS

And the third pair was:  Y3 HONJA MENS CLASSIC WHITE TRAINERS

The Product description said: - Canvas and pig skin lining

- Poron« performance sockliner under pig skin lining for comfort

- EVA midsole with adidas adiPRENE« technology for premium cushioning and shock absorption
- Durable rubber outsole with Yohji Yamamoto face design

Our experience: They are soft, flexible and perfect for work-outs and sports too. Also they seem very durable.  Total thumbs up from my guy.

The upper fabric is Original leather and the soles are rubber which makes it a perfect combination of toughness and stability. The shoes dont slip even on moist surfaces and has a great grip which makes it perfect for playing sports as well as a gym work-out(Specially for lifting those weights

You can also shop from their site here: ADIDAS Y3 TRAINERS.   We have ordered a few women’s trainers as well and the shopping was a pleasurable experience.

Hope you like my experiences and happy shawpping ppl..

REVIEW: AVEENO POSITIVELY RADIANT DAILY MOISTURIZER WITH SPF15

Heyy my beauties… first of all Happy weekend and Happy Valentine’s Day in Advance  hope you all have planned grt things for the day. Too bad its coming on a monday :((  Anyway, when I landed here in US, I was introduced to the Aveeno product family by my hubby dear. Till then I had no idea and just like all the skin care jars and bottles I thought them to be looking nice sitting on almost all the possible shelves in drugstores. Later when Fall started making the skin dry and messy I picked up the aveeno body lotion and trust me guys: I was hooked!!! I was so in love with the product. I’m on the second bottle right now . Also the winters were making my face all dry and crumbly with a lot of redness. I was panicky coz not only it looked wierd, it stung too

At that time I was using my Neutrogena face moisturizer which was good in the summers but I needed a little bit more- a moisturizer which is deep enough to moisturize in winters but light enough as to not break me out. got the point???

So while I was waiting in the billing line once I happened to come across this product: AVEENO POSITIVELY RADIANT DAILY MOISTURIZER WITH SPF15. My heart wanted to get it right then but I was more cautious as in the past ive picked up some real blahhh stuff impulsively heheheh.

So, I came home I did a little bit of R-n-D and considering the Aveeno reputation I just picked it up. I picked up a  twin pack for about 14$. The Aveeno range is pretty famous here and every year wins a lot of beauty awards.

The Site claims: With clinically proven Total Soy Complex and natural light diffusers, this daily moisturizer evens out skin tone and texture and immediately reflects light to bring out skin’s natural radiance. Its fast-absorbing formula leaves skin soft and smooth and is clinically proven to improve skin tone and texture in as little as 4 weeks. Gentle enough for sensitive skin and daily use, this moisturizer is also oil-free, hypoallergenic, noncomedogenic, and contains SPF 15 UVA/UVB sunscreen.

My take on the product: I have been using this moisturizer for over 2 weeks now and I am very happy with it. It took care of all the winter problems, the redness was gone and my face didnt hurt when I smiled(which happens to me in winters. hehee) Also since I am a bit regular with my CTM routine these days I am not breaking out as well. And on top of that it has SPF 15 UVA/UVB blockage. Awesome right?

This is what it looks like:

And after lightly blending into my skin it looks like:

Also: it gives a great glow when I mix it with my foundations. I had used a particular cream before and it used to sting when mixed with foundations. This one absolutely does not sting and blends beautifully making a great tinted moisturizer.

PROS:

- Moisturizes well but is oil free

- Hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic (means it does not clog pores. yayyy for oily-combo gals like me.)

- Gets absorbed quickly so you dont have to rub a lot.

- Leaves skin smooth and takes care of skin irritations.

CONS:

- Really cant think of any but I didnt find any Skin texture difference as the product claims. but no complaints as it is keeping my skin smooth and no redness.

WILL I RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE? : Definitely. everyone from Dry to oily skin people can use this with no issues. I am  a sensitive skinned oily-combo myself so even I have to think a lot before getting a skincare prod. thank God this worked

So Sweeties I hope you liked the review and Do leave ur feedback and comments. It will be highly appreciated. Have a great weekend ahead.

Love,

Bee.
