Anew 360 white Timeless Cream

Hello, This is long due post. I am using this cream for quite some time. First pack of Anew 360 white Timeless Cream was send to me by PR and I just feel in love with this product, so I bought another one from Flipkart.com

Company claims

Fight 6 whitening problems and 6 aging signs in one go, transform into fair and youthful skin. ANEW 360 WHITE TIMELESS CREAM is formulated with patented whitening and anti-ageing technologies. This moisturizing yet lightweight cream nourishes skin throughout day and night. In 4 weeks, skin gets dramatically fairer and whiter with an up to 5 years younger look.

Packaging

Its heavy glass jar with beautiful white and purple color and golden lid. Its not very travel friendly however I carry it all time in my bag and haven't face any issue of breakage. 

I am not into skin whitening however I was in need of good day and night cream post pregnancy. Since I am so lazy to get into routine of  using different creams (day and night) so this seems an easy one to use. Texture is super light, non greasy and get absorb in no time. It makes my skin look fresh, plum and I could instantly feels like my skin become extra soft. with winters around it does keep my skin hydrated. Pea sixe cream is enough to cover entire face and neck. It will suit those with oily and dry skin. Thankfully I have not experience any breakout.

i am using this for 3 months now, day and night and I am liking the effect. I am not sure about fairness part but it does have positive result on my skin and I could say that my skin looks little healthy.

Price wise its little expensive but I don't mind spending few extra rupees if it make me glow :) Rs 1399 for 30 gms. On flipkart its for rs 1359

Shopping AliExpress

I was never interested in buying clothes online however during pregnancy and post delivery I spend lot of time checking out products and things online. And when you are shoppoholic you could not resist buying. 

I was looking for animal print dress for Sayen (such prints are my weekness) and I found one on AliExpress. It has huge collection of clothes, shoes, accessories, bags, decor and what not. I liked collection for men, women and kids. 

Since it was my first purchase so as a trial I bought only one outfit for Sayen. 

It's simple to create an account, make payment. You will get notification from vendor about dispatch of product. Also you can keep track of your purchase as they provide you with tracking no. They have many products for which there are no shipping charges. And those who have shopping charges are also quite reasonable.

It took around 45+ days before my order was delivered. I was little less hopeful that I would receive it. They provide 60 days guarantee and incase you don't receive product you could open an issue with the vendor. Which I really like.

Product received was exactly what was mentioned and shown in pictures. Only issue was size I find it little small. May be my girl is taller than average babies that's why.

Dress was super cute and it comes along with headband and matching shoes. Which fits her perfectly.

It cost me 22.82USD for dress, shoes and headband. I would like to try and shop other things too. 

What I like

Huge collection

Easy navigation

Easy payment 

Free shipping on many products

Decent quality

What I don't like

Delivery time is long

In my case product size was not as I expected

Ps- this is my personal opinion, this is not a sponsored post.

Kiehl's SkinCare Haul

I am in shopping spear these days. Staying at moms place means eat, sleep(thanks to Sayen I hardly get that) and shop. 

With Sayen growing so fast and hectic lifestyle, I am neglecting my skin a lot and need some attention. Most effected area is my under eye area. I am sleep deprived and dark circles are growing. 

So I needed something to control these dark circles, I called Kiehl's and ask for on line consultation. They suggested  Line-Reducing Eye Brughtening Concentrate 15ml @ Rs 2500

Also I ordered a product from bae, Rare Earth Pore Minimizing Lotion 75ml @ Rs 2140. This was again suggested by consultant. Bae feels that this pore on checks are getting larger, so I thought of getting something for him too. (Such a sweet wife I am, evil grin I am gonna charge entire bill to him).

Also got few sample products to try.

They delivers products on same day within 4 hrs of placing order. I am really impressed with customer service and super fast delivery.

When I received products it was a little disappointment for me as products where manufactured in 2013 and 2014 with expiry in May 2016. I called them to check and asked for fresh stock to which they confirmed that latest stock available with them is this only and they will expire in 2016. So, I am not sure when you buy such expensive products with manufacturing date 2013 how to react.

Maybelline colossal pen liner

I am neglecting my blog, thanks to Instagram for this. I am finding it more easy to use

I recently bought Maybelline Colossal pen liner. I was impressed by hyper sharp so I had high expectation from Colossal too. Plus I really like Colossal bais liner on black, my regular liner

Packaging is decent, easy to Cary and use. Tip is long and very fine. You can draw a very thin line precisely with it. Just layered it when wants a thick liner. Very good for cat eye liners or winged liner

Color is jet black with glossy finish. stays for 5-6 hrs without fading or flaking. Looks beautiful on eyes. 

Now the down part is that it's not water proof. It runs in sec when in comes in contact with water. Surely not to be used on waterline. Not for those who have watery eyes or sweaty/oily lids. 

Overall I would not like to buy it again and will not recommend, hyper sharp is far better than this.

Priced Rs 340 available at all stores and online Nykaa

Statement neckpiece from RosabelleTreasures

I am these days in love with big chunky statement necklace. Though I hardly find occasion to flaunt them but who cards atleast I can collect few. 

It was my besties sons first birthday and I find an excuse to wear my very first RosabelleTreasures trance necklace (Instagram @rosabelletreasures) 

I pairs it with my new Biba long dress from indigo collection. It's beautiful boho kind of maxi and perfect for summers. 

Necklace is bit heavy when I initially wore it, finish is excellent, long adjustable chain. I got lots of compliment for it too. 

Planning to invest in few more pieces. Do you like such jewellery??

Date with husband @ London Cafe

Once baby arrives there is hardly time left for couples. Our baby is now 5 Month old and getting naughty day by day. 

Last week we went on lunch date after months. We went to London Cafe in Noida

We loved the place, food, service. It's a newly open Resturant which serves continental, tandoori and Indian 

Ambiance and decor was like we are sitting in our drawing room. Comfortable sofas with center table and big paintings on wall. 

Beautiful stairs

We were given wet towels to clean our hands, personally I dnt find it very hygienic and would prefer wet tissues. 

We tried Nachos with salsa, paneer Zafrani tikka, Veg. Biryani and Lenon ice tea. I loved Nachoes they were outstanding. They have baked beans and tomatoes with salsa dip served hot. 

Paneer Zafrani was yummy, perfectly grilled, flavours of spices were magical. 

Dahi le kebabs were offered to us for tasting which just melt in mouth

We were almost full after trying earlier too times but Biryani was yet to arrive. It came in cute colored pot, served with curd, salad and pappad. Biryani looked spicy however to our surprise it was not at all spicy.

Ice tea was chilled and refreshing

Overall it's a very god place to hand around with friends and family. I would love to visit that place again.

Only issue or complaint we had was there were few flies, which cleaning staff was trying to take care off bit you don't expect flies in fine dinning Resturants. 

PS this is not a sponsored post, this is my personal experience

Gerard Cosmetics lipsticks

Hello,

Recently I bought two lipsticks from Gerard Cosmetics. It's a US brand and make cruelty free makeup. 

I loved golden shinning packaging which looks so luxurious

smell like cryon,texture is creamy and glides with ease. Decent staying power of 3-4 hrs. Need to exfoliate lips before use

Shades that I picked are Rodeo Drive and Tequila Sunrise

Rodeo Drive is more suitable for Indian skin, and little glossy similar to cream sheen range of MAC and a possible dupe for cream in your coffee. 

Tequila Sunrise is pale peacy orange and matte little drying will suit fair skin girls more but I like it when applied over a lip balm. Close dupe of MAC Ravishing

They have free shipping and many products are available at pretty good discounts. I got two lipsticks for $20 however they would cost $38. Check my Instagram account @dresnmakeup
