Nivea UV Protect Body Lotion(product review)


be beautiful with punam

I like moisturizers which are not thick & absorb into skin quickly … esp. in summers I don’t want that too creamy feel all day long ,I simply want a lotion that hydrates without giving that over creamy cast and then I got this lotion from Nivea that is my parents favorite brand when it comes to need of moisture. This moisturizer also claims to provide UV protection. Let’s find out how it goes??

Today I am sharing my experience with Chambor Forever Blue Eyeliner.
be beautiful with punam

I got it from Chambor counter at Big Life C21 Mall & I didn't check this pencil at that time
as they gave the sealed one & when I came back home I thought of trying it & initially I was not
able to roll it & once when eyerliner came out ,it dint go back coz of mechanism error &
it really got messy& whole liner came out.I think there was some problem in the batch of liner i got or
probably i dint get the good one any ways.

Lakme Clean Up Nourishing Glow Face Wash(product review)

be beautiful with punam



It’s been a longtime since I have tried any new face wash... and
after trying Lakme brightening capsules I have actually developed a trust on
Lakme’s skin care products just like there make up products.

This time I am trying a product from there new range -Lakme Clean Up Nourishing Glow Range that have 3 amazing products to pamper our skin: Face wash, Scrub & Mask. I am sharing my experience with:
Lakme Clean up Nourishing Glow Face Wash.

be beautiful with punam


Price: 80 Inr for 50 gm

My Experience:

I just loved the strawberry colored tube packaging. This comes with flip flop cap that
clicks lock easily & tightly. This mechanism makes it travel friendly and
 one has to press the tube to take out required amount so no wastage of product.

The face wash is lovely strawberry colored which itself makes me want to use it.
It has thick gel like consistency with tiny & soft granules.
But I don’t find granules to do anything for my black/white heads.

be beautiful with punam


The fragrance is just like any fruit jelly, bit strong but not irritating at
all rather it gives cooling sensation in these hot summers.

It foams well with this little quantity.

It cleanse my skin  well without making it over dry or stretched but
it doesn’t give that super clean feel which is a downside for me as I have oily skin and
I prefer a face wash that cleanses my skin deeply .But I think it will be nice for
combination to mild oily skinned beauties.

I have very oily skin & in summers my skin produces more oil...
but this face wash controls my oil for more than 4 hours... which is a sufficient time

I am using it from last 15 days & It never broke me out ...i think
It does provide mild anti acne action...which is a plus point.

Good:

  • Travel friendly coz of sturdy packaging
  • Nice strawberry colored gel with soft granules that looks attractive.
  • Lathers sufficiently.
  • Gives decent cleansing without drying out skin.
  • Doesn’t leaves any residue behind
  • Refreshing fragrance
  • Last longer as little quantity is enough for whole face & neck.
  • Affordable.


Not so good:

• Doesn’t give deep cleansing for very oily skin
• Granules are of no help even for my mild white heads.

Over all I liked it for giving the refreshing feel & it’s great for combination /mildly oily skin.

Maybelline Vivid & Smooth Eye Liner Pencil In Shade Violet Pearl(product review)

be beautiful with punam



Once again I am with the review of a great budget brand that also provides good quality...
i.e. Maybelline.
Today I am sharing my experience with Maybelline Vivid & Smooth Eye Liner Pencils which
I bought long back... but I never reviewed it... I am too lazy

Price: 200 Inr

Available in 12 pretty shades & all of them are bright & attractive.I am using shade Violet Pearl.

be beautiful with punam

My experience:

It comes with the black body & a transparent cap which makes locating shade easily.
The tail is also of the same shade as the shade inside.

It glides easily coz of its really creamy, soft & smooth texture , which is friendly for delicate skin
of lids but its bit difficult to create sharp look & also it breaks too often while sharpening & applying.


be beautiful with punam

Because of its creamy texture it shows cracks on skin while trying to build pigmentation.

Settles down quickly & its smudge proof, water proof for at least 5 hrs on my oily lids but
later it starts fading.

Its finish is metallic, which makes it great to use alone as liner as well as the base for eye make up .
The shade violet pearl is really unique & noticeable.

Here is how it look on my eyes:

Conclusion:
I have always liked Maybelline make up products... and I too like this different shade Violet Pearl.
I would have loved it a bit more if it didn't break so often & could have better texture...
but I like it for staying so long on my oily lids & that too with reasonable price.

Late Nights Causing Acne On Forehead(My Experience)

Image Source: Google Images

After resolving my cystic acne issues with proper diet & skin care... 
I was bit relaxed & happy to see my skin getting better than before...
but from last few days I have been noticing little acne on my forehead and 
was wondering why I have acne on forehead only… when I am maintaining the same care regime.

Then I came to know that my late nights are causing this acne specifically on my forehead.
Image Source:Google Images


Out break on forehead can be due to toxin build up. That toxin build up can be due to 
improper sleep routine. For e.g. I sleep around 2-3 am & wake up after 11 am. 
This is the worst time to sleep coz this is the time when lever doesn’t dispels toxin... 
our lever dispels toxins between 11 pm to 3 am..Hahaa I am totally opposite of this.

Sleep deprivation is one of the main reasons of acne on forehead.

Lack of proper sleep & stress imbalances hormones & that leads to toxins in lever & 
in turn leads to acne esp. on forehead. 

There can be other causes as well for forehead acne like: diet, dandruff, oil on scalp, 
hormonal imbalance, and genetic reasons. 

But in my case it is due to improper sleep & schedule. 
I never thought this can also be a reason for acne but I guess it plays a major role.

What are experience with acne ? I would love to know your comments & experiences.

Keep Smiling & be beautiful with punam:)

be beautiful with punam



I have oily skin and since winters have gone... my skin is producing more oil...
So last month I picked this affordable compact powder from Street Wear... which is is famous for
giving quality products in cheap price.

be beautiful with punam


Price: 195 INR for 10 g

Shades available :Natural Matte, Blush Matte, Powder Honey.(I am using Blush Matte).

My Experience:

It comes in a simple but nice purple colored packaging.

be beautiful with punam


The compact, mirror & puff house in the same compartment.
The quality of the puff is ok & it feels smooth but it’s not easy to clean.

Puff picks up the right amount of product for application.

The notch opens & clicks easily with the subtle press; this makes it travel friendly & easy to use.

Its texture is smooth but not very soft.

It blends in to skin easily & doesn't settle in to fine lines. Doesn't give heavy or cakey look.

It does give nice matte finish to my oily skin.

Gives medium coverage. Since it’s a light coverage product most people will
find there shade match with in these two three shades available.

Controls oil but not for more than 3 hours on my Revlon & Lakme foundation &
when worn alone its capacity decreases to 2 hours in these summers.

Here is how it looks on my Eyes:
Before:

After:



Conclusion: Street Wear is known as a budget brand & with this price I think
this products is nice .I liked the way it blends in to skin without giving cakey & dry look.
The only point is its capacity of controlling oil on my oily skin is a little less which
I feel should have been better.

Have you tried this compact from Street Wear? Then Do share your experience with me .
