The YSL foundation is no ordinary product, it comes from the house of YSL, a company well known for its innovative products.

What works for it is that it’s the first time any foundation formula has been launched in a brush form!

Application is a breeze, the foundation is sheer and very easy to blend.

Once blended, it skilfully covers up your dark circles and blemishes imparting a velvety smooth and flawless, non made up look. Despite being light, it lasts phenomenally long without fading or rubbing off on the clothes. Even if you have a dry skin, the perfect touch foundation provides an excellent coverage making your skin look supple and radiant all day. It comes in amazing 15 shades so that you can get the perfect foundation for your skin tone.

The foundation is great for covering your late night sins as it erases fatigue and adds freshness in a few strokes. If you like liquid foundations without the messy sponges, then radiant foundation with its unique brush formula is the one for you.

    • Cover Girl Triple Lipstick, Sunscreen SPF 15, Variety of Colors

    Monday
    Oct 20,2008

    covergirl-tiple-lipstick.jpegWith new make up products being launched in the market on a daily basis, the make up companies adopt gimmicks and market strategies to make their creations noticeable amongst the sea of similar looking products. Since most lipsticks are being advertised as wonder products containing everything healthy, can the Cover Girl be far behind?

    The triple lipstick does not offer anything new by way of its ingredients, it is a moisture rich lipstick laden with vitamins, sunscreen protection and offers a plethora of colours to choose from, thus justifying its ‘triple’ aspect! Definitely Cover Girls Lipsticks have an edge when it comes to the choice of colours, their range is pretty vast and are made for all skin tones. Save for that, there is nothing unique about this product.

    Having said that, the lipstick does glide on smoothly like a lip gloss and feels like silk on the lips. It is mildly fragrant but the smell is faint and pleasant. The good thing about the product is that it does not bleed at all and keeps the lips hydrated. However, it is not a long wearing product, though the colour stain stays on even after meals, the gloss disappears within an hour of its application! You need to reapply the lipstick every couple of hours to keep the colours fresh and shiny.

    The product is safe as it is Hypoallergenic and Dermatologist tested and works well even on sensitive skins. As the product is reasonably priced and comes in an array of colours, it certainly gives the departmental store brands a run for their money. Since the lipstick offers high sun protection it is great for a day time wear and for sunny beach days.

    • Maybelline XXL Volume + Length Microfiber Mascara | Up to 6x the Volume, Clump Free & Smudge Free

    Tuesday
    Oct 14,2008

    Maybelline XXL Volume + Length Microfiber MascaraIf you like natural looking eyelashes without a hint of drama then this mascara does the job perfectly. Inexpensively priced, the product is extremely affordable and since it offers a two in one deal is definitely worth a try. The fist thing that draws your attention is the numbering on the tube, and the fact that both the ends are in different colours.

    It is obviously a no-brainer that one is a primer and the other the top coat of the mascara. Since there are two brushes in a standard size tube, they are obviously short and for those of you who like long stemmed mascara brushes this may seem a bit of a disappointment. However once you get used to it, application isn’t a problem at all.

    The white primer is kind of creamy and glides on easily onto the lashes. Since it dries instantly you can put on the top coat immediately. The minute you apply the top coat you will see well defined and extremely long lashes that you never knew existed! The mascara covers the primer well, does not clump or flake and is extremely long lasting. The only thing this mascara does not do is fatten your eyelashes, they stay stubbornly skinny like a weight conscious teenager!

    Though the mascara stays on all day, if you want to reapply it, it does clump a bit. The trick is to take the whole thing off and the reapply it. Taking off the mascara is as easy as applying it, you don’t have to scrub your eyes to get it off. The product is available in three shades, very black, soft black and brown and comes in water proof and regular formula so that you can choose the one according to your requirement. Though this mascara will never win an award as a glam product, it still is a nice product for daily wear and worth a buy.

    • Skin Ceuticals C E Ferulic Combination Antioxidant Treatment

    Saturday
    Oct 4,2008

    skin-ceuticals-c-e-ferulic-combination-antioxidant-treatment.jpgIf you have tried all sorts of sun screen products and yet found the results disappointing, then here is the mother of all sunscreens, the C E Ferulic, which claims to be 8 times more effective against sun damage and environmental ageing. The product’s fame to claim lies in its ability to fight skin cancer, hyper pigmentation and redness of the skin. The CE Ferulic is fortified with vitamin C, Ferulic acid and vitamin E, all three combine to combat against aging and form a shield on the skin to prevent further damage.

    Sounds like a heaven sent gift doesn’t it, apply it and voila, you look ten years younger! Well if only we were that lucky. CE Ferulic is a great anti oxidant and a fabulous sunscreen, but it isn’t the fountain of youth. It does improve the skin texture and helps build up the collagen but it certainly won’t make your mom look like your sister! It’s a good skin care product that works well even on sensitive skins but is priced a bit high. However, since only 2-3 drops are required for covering the whole face and neck, the price may work out in the long run.
