Favourite Five + mini reviews

“Favourite Five” are the top 5 beauty products from the ones I currently use. I have also included mini reviews under each to let you know how well they work

The Body Shop Indian Night Jasmine Eau De Toilette

This is probably my first proper fragrance after I moved beyond deodorants. Almost 3 years later, this still remains one of my favourite perfumes. I usually hate the smell of Jasmine in perfumes( it reminds me of strong headache inducing attars). This is nothing like that. A very mild, flowery blend of Jasmine, Sandalwood, Violet leaf and Orange blossom. The body mist is also available which is cheaper.

Price – 1695 INR for 50 ml. You can buy it here.

Soap & Glory A Great Kisser Lip Moisture Balm in Vanilla

I must admit I bought this solely because of the packaging. I simply adore Soap & Glory’s packaging. Don’t you too? 😀 This balm has got slight sparkles and is almost like a gloss rather than a balm. It’s slightly sticky and gives a slight orange color on lips. It does a good job of protecting dry lips and the vanilla smell is simply delicious 😀

Price – 6$. You can buy it here.

Lady Speed Stick Shower Fresh Invisible Dry Antiperspirant Deodorant

I always prefer spray deodorants to stick and roll ons but as always, i am constantly changing my beauty products just for the sake of changing 😛 I saw this on flipkart and purchased it immediately. It smells fine on the stick but i find it a little weird on the skin. Nothing really shower fresh about it. And definitely doesn’t give 24 hour protection. But it does an Ok job for a deo stick. *goes back to sprays*

Price – 298 INR. You can buy it here.

Rimmel Professional Eyebrow Pencil

There’s a tie between the Body Shop Indian Night Jasmine Eau De Toilette and Rimmel Professional Eyebrow Pencil for my top favourite product. I simply adore this pencil. I wasn’t into eyebrow filling up until a few months back. After googling about cream,gel and powder based eyebrow fillers, I decided a pencil is good for a start and bought this one. And now I am thinking how I managed without one all along! It is not creamy, and so doesn’t break or give any artificial heavy pigmentation (you don’t want your eyebrows to look like tattoos). It does a perfect job of filling gaps in a neat way. The built in brush can be used to comb your brows.

Price – 4$. You can buy it here.

Natio Ageless Gentle Cleansing Milk

This is a milky, herbal smelling cleansing milk which removes makeup quite well. I prefer biphasic(water+oil) makeup removers to creamy lotions and so this one didn’t make me too happy. The ingredient list is pretty good though – Rosehip, Sweet Almond and Sesame.

Price – 1010 INR for 125 ml(mine is a 30 ml travel tube). You can buy it here.
