Hey beauties,

Hope you are doing great. Its been long since I have posted any OOTD (outfit of the day) or makeup look on the blog. I do it often on my Instagram account now. Eid is the perfect occasion to share an outfit blog post. Therefore today, I decided to share my Eid-ul-Fitr 2017 makeup look and outfit with you all. Although I have already shared my Eid makeup look on Instagram yet I wanted to share the outfit and other details here altogether in one post. So let's get to the post to see my look for Eid-ul-Fitr 2017...

Eid-ul-Fitr 2017 Look & Outfit

Eid-ul-Fitr 2017 Outfit

Since this year, Eid came in June, which is the hottest month of the year, therefore I decided to keep my outfit simple. I opted for this chic ready-to-wear Kurti by Origins. Origins has surely become one of my favorite brands for ready-to wear clothing. This blue and white, front open shirt with orange embroidery seemed perfect for summer Eid. It has long bell sleeves. The material of shirt was good like always and stitching was perfect too. I see myself wearing this shirt quite a lot with different pants/trousers as I love its design.

I paired the Kurti with white embroidered Khaadi tights. Now I know this year is all about gharara pants and loose trousers. However in such warm weather, I wanted to wear something comfortable therefore, these tights were what I decided to pair my loose shirt with. For shoes, I always prefer flats over heels for such occasions. So I wore really pretty blue flats by Stylo.

Eid-ul-Fitr 2017 Look

As for Makeup, it was a real challenge to look fresh all day long in such warm and humid weather. I decided to go for simple eyes, glowy cheeks and bright lips for this Eid.

Eid-ul-Fitr 2017 Makeup Favorites

Few products that really helped me look gorgeous all day long on Eid-ul-Fitr 2017 are Makeup Revolution Ultra Pro Glow Palette, Makeup Revolution Pro Fix Illuminating Spray, Masarrat Misbah Makeup Silk Foundation and Masarrat Misbah Makeup Lip Varnish. Here is my makeup look for Eid-ul-Fitr 2017.

Eid is all about colors, mehndi, accessories, getting ready and having fun with friends and family. In Pakistan, Eid is considered a festival for women & children. All the ladies do something extra to look beautiful on Eid days. That is why, Unilever Pakistan launched a new YouTube Channel, "Meri Eid Ki Look" to help all the ladies look beautiful this Eid.

In the videos featured for Eid, we saw three “must-have” products for every girl:

The three looks were brilliantly crafted for those who have lots of chores on Eid. The step by step tutorials, made the looks more easier and fun. Even, I learned many tricks from the videos and was finally able to finalize my Eid look.

The perky and cute Anoushay Ashraf did a magnificent job describing each look. I loved her cute expressions and the way she explained each look and made it look fun and easy. My personal favorite look was neutral eyes with bright lips for Eid Day 1.

Now this is surely my kinda look. Loved it 😍 #MeriEidKiLook https://t.co/6sRdn2Bbn2

Hey beauties,

Hope your week is off to a great start. Last month I got some amazing products from Sigma Beauty Nightlife by Camila Coelho Collection. The Nightlife by Camila Coelho collection is surely one of the most beautiful collections by Sigma Beauty. No more talking, let's just get to the post to have a detailed look at few of the products from the collection that I am reviewing today...

Sigma Beauty Nightlife Brush Set

Nightlife Brush Set:
Starting with Sigma Beauty Nightlife Brush Set. The Nightlife brush set consists of 5 best-selling Sigma Beauty brushes. It contains both eye and face brushes that are essential for any makeup look. The three eye brushes in the set are essential for perfect application and blending of eye makeup. The two face brushes are versatile and can be used to apply blusher, highlighter and also for contouring. The set contains Sigma F35 and F40 which are Must-Haves in my opinion. The most captivating thing about these brushes is their glittery handles. I can say, this is by far the most gorgeous brush set in my collection. Quality of the brushes is great like always. The bristles are soft and I didn't experience any shedding so far. The handles of brushes are pretty yet sturdy. Overall, the brush set isn't just gorgeous but contains some of the best brushes by Sigma Beauty and I love it.

All the shades are super pigmented and have buttery soft texture. They are really easy to blend and have great staying power. I experienced minor fall out with few matte shades in the palette but that was nothing too bothersome. This is a very versatile palette and I totally love the variety of shades in this palette. Yet another heart-winning eye shadow palette by Sigma Beauty.

Sigma Beauty In Fine Feather Lip Liner and Dance 'Til Dawn Lipstick

Sigma Beauty Dance 'Til Dawn Lipstick

Sigma Beauty In Fine Feather Lip Liner

In Fine Feather Lip Liner and Dance 'Til Dawn Lipstick:
The collection also consists of one Lip liner (In Fine Feather) and one Lipstick (Dance 'Til Dawn). The lipstick and liner are Camila Coelho signature shades. Dance 'Til Dawn lipstick is a light pink lipstick. It looks almost nude pink on my lips. The texture of lipstick is very creamy and its color payoff is amazing. Staying power of the lipstick however is just 3-4 hours because of its creamy finish and texture. In Fine Feather lip liner is a very gorgeous rosy pink matte lip liner. Its texture is creamy. It can be used to outline lips or can be worn alone, all over the lips. The shade can be worn with many pink lipsticks and is perfect for all skin tones.

At the end, here is a soft glam look that I have created using these products from Sigma Beauty Nightlife by Camila Coelho Collection. In this look I have used Nightlife eye shadow palette on my eyes, In Fine Feather Liner on my lips and Nightlife brush set for application and blending. For those glowy cheeks, I have used Sigma Beauty Shimmer Cream in Brilliant.
All in all, I love Sigma Beauty Nightlife by Camila Coelho Collection. From packaging to color selection and products performance, I love everything about it. All the products are worth the price and worth trying. The Nightlife eye shadow palette and brush set have surely become my favorite and I see myself using these a lot this year. I will be surely featuring these in different makeup looks that I will be sharing on my Instagram.

Hey everyone,

Hope you all are doing great. Few weeks ago, I got the chance to try these much hyped "Mousse Shimmers" from Facebook based online store Reasonablez.com. Many of you girls requested me to review these shimmers soon. I have been testing these regularly and here I am with my review on these Studio Line Mousse Eye Shimmers. So no more talking, let's just get to the review to see what I have to say about these mousse shimmers from Reasonablez.com...

Studio Line Mousse Shimmers

Studio Line Mousse Shimmers come in a black cardboard outer box with small pots of mousse shimmers inside. These are basically mousse eye shimmers to be used on eyes. However these are versatile and can be used on eyes, lips, face or body.

Studio Line Mousse Shimmers box contains 12 pots of mousse shimmers in different shades. I was expecting them all to be shimmery but was surprised to see 4 matte shades in the box. There are 6 shimmery, 2 metallic, 1 complete matte and 3 matte with shimmer shades in the box. The shades included in the box are really gorgeous and create perfect combination for different looks.The pigmentation of all the shades is ah-mazing. I am really amazed to see how pigmented they are. The texture of these mousse shimmers is really creamy and easy to work with. You can easily apply it with fingers or brush on your eyes. These shimmers don't create any mess/fallout like other glitters or shimmers and thus are great for beginners. All the shades have nice satin like finish which looks gorgeous. I love how easy these are to use.

The staying power of these shimmers is pretty nice too. These stay on my eyes almost all day long. Many shades are a bit hard to remove at the end of the day. However these transfer easily and tend to crease a bit like all mousse eye products if used without a good base or primer. Therefore, I recommend you to use these over powder shadows or with a good primer to avoid creasing. I am glad that these mousse shimmers didn't irritate my sensitive eyes which is a plus for me.

At the end, here is a quick 5 minutes eye makeup look I created using these mousse shimmers. I didn't use any brushes for this look and applied shimmers with my fingers to create this quick look.

Eye Look Created Using Studio Line Mousse Shimmers

Overall, I think these Studio Line Mousse Shimmers are really good for the price. They are great for beginners to who want to add glam to their looks without the hassle of using glitters and loose shimmers. These are super-pigmented, really easy to use and versatile. These do tend to crease a bit and those with oily lids might experience average staying power and more creasing with these. However you can deal with these cons by using a good base and primer beneath. For the price, these shimmers are really good and I surely recommend you to try these.


The Goods:

• Great pigmentation
• Variety of shades
• Creamy formula
• Easy to apply and use
• Do not cause any fall out
• Good staying power
• Versatile
• Affordable

The Bads:

• Tend to crease a bit
• Transfer easily

Price & Availability: Studio Line Mousse Shimmer Pack is available online at Facebook page Reasonablez.com for Rs 850/- only.




Overall Rating: 4.3/5...!!!

Hey beauties,

Hope you are doing great. I tried and collected many eye shadow palettes from different brands last year. Sigma Beauty Brilliant & Spellbinding Palette is surely my favorite eye shadow palette from 2015. After that, I got the chance to try the Warm Neutrals Palette by Sigma Beauty that am reviewing today. This has surely become one of my most used eye shadow palettes. So let's get to the review and see what I have to say about Sigma Beauty Warm Neutrals Eye Shadow Palette.

Sigma Beauty Warm Neutrals Eye Shadow Palette

Sigma Beauty Warm Neutrals Palette comes in the signature Sigma black hard cardboard packaging with a magnet that keeps the lid tightly closed. It also has a white cardboard outer box. Once you open the palette, you can see the Sigma text engraved on each shade. The palette also comes with a big mirror inside. The names of the shades are written on back of packaging. Overall, I find the packaging of this palette very sleek and I like it.

As the name already explains, the palette contains 12 gorgeous neutral eye shadows. It consists of matte, semi-matte and shimmery shades. Most of the shades in this palette are warm-toned. All the shades in this palette are highly pigmented and have buttery smooth texture. The matte shades are also very soft and are not at all chalky. However, unlike the brilliant and spellbinding palette, I did experience some fall-out with few shades during application. However, the fall-out was not bothersome. The staying power of the shades in this palette is really great. Almost all the shades stay on my eyes till the end of the day even without using any primer.

Top Row: Oyster Sand, Sugar Milk, Mild Mannered, Dove

Middle Row: Fawn, Cinnamon, Russet, Balanced

Bottom Row: Cozy, Innocent, Optimistic, Warm Stone

All in all, I really like this Sigma Warm Neutrals Eye Shadow Palette. It has such gorgeous and unique combination of colors that are perfect to create subtle day time or even night time looks. The pigmentation of the colors is great and the soft, buttery texture of the eye shadows makes them really easier to blend. At the end, here is a quick day time look I created using eye shadows from this palette.

EOTD- Using Sigma Beauty Warm Neutrals Eye Shadow Palette

The Goods:

Hey beauties,

Hope you enjoyed Eid-ul-Fitr to the fullest and had fun getting ready, meeting relatives and doing much more. Eid is the perfect occasion to go bright with colors and bold with makeup. Its all about spreading happiness, peace, love and sharing joys with our loved ones. Talking about colors of Eid, this Eid I opted for a simple yet colorful lawn suit by Bonanza Satrangi with some traditional accessories. I showed a glimpse of my Eid look on my social accounts and many of you requested me to show you the full makeup look. So here I am, sharing my Eid makeup look and outfit with you all.

Eid ul Fitr Outfit and Makeup Look

Lawn Suit by Bonanza Satrangi

Dress: Bonanza Satrangi
Earrings: Stylo Shoes

Since its summer and the weather is quite hot in Pakistan, therefore I wore a lawn suit by Bonanza Satrangi, nothing too fancy. This was an un-stitched four piece lawn suit with embroidery patch and shafoon dupatta and I got it stitched myself. I couldn't take a full proper picture of the dress because of shortage of time as I wanted to capture clearer pictures of my makeup look to share with you all. The front of the suit was beige and off white whereas the back was red and orange. I matched the bangles and other accessories with the dress to add more bling to my look.

As for makeup, I decided to go for a subtle eye makeup look using light peach and gold shades from Sigma Beauty Brilliant & Spellbinding Palette. I paired the look with matte red lip color. Used a peachy orange blush and to highlight my face, I combined Mary-Lou Manizer with the bronze shade from Makeup Revolution Radiance Palette. I will be sharing the name and details of the products used for the look at the end.

Hey beauties,

Hope your week is off to a great start. Today I shall be reviewing another makeup palette that I recently tried by Makeup Revolution I Heart Makeup. I had been wanting to try this palette since I saw it online but it was not available in Pakistan. Thanks to Facebook page "Beauty World" for making these I Heart Makeup Go Palettes available in Pakistan for us. There are four palettes available in this range and the one that I got is the Go Palette! So let's get to the review and see what I have to say about this cute little palette.

Makeup Revolution I Heart Makeup Go Palette

Makeup Revolution I Heart Makeup Go Palette Back Side & Ingredients

Makeup Revolution I Heart Makeup Go Palette comes in a cute round black plastic packaging with transparent lid. The packaging is not so sturdy and feels a bit cheap but I find it really cute. Inside the palette there are 9 sections/pans. There are six eye shadows, one blusher, one bronzer and one highlighter. The eye shadow pans are small yet not so small. The blushers sections are on top and there is a big highlighter in the middle of the palette.

Makeup Revolution Go Palette contains five gorgeous neutral shades and one dark blackish burgundy shade. All the eye shadows included in this palette are fairly pigmented. The color pay off of these eye shadows is not as great as other Makeup Revolution palettes that I have tried but it is still good enough. Out of the six eye shadows, three are shimmery and two are satin finish. The only matte eye shadow in this palette is the light ivory shade at extreme right. All the shades have soft texture and they apply and blend with ease. They last pretty longer (almost till end of the day) without any primer and do not crease. I experienced minimum or no fallout with these eye shadows during application. However, the soft texture of few shades such as the light silverish pink shade and the dark blackish burgundy shade can causes some fall out inside the pan. Nothing too bothersome though. Here are the swatches of all the six gorgeous eye shadows included in this palette.

Makeup Revolution I Heart Makeup Go Palette Eye Shadow Swatches

Now talking about the blush, bronzer and highlighter inside this palette. This palette contains a cool-toned bubble gum pink matte blush. It is a really lovely pink shade and looks so natural. The bronzing shade however is too light for contouring and I rather use it as a blush. It is a lovely nude brown matte shade. Both the blushes are fairly pigmented and have soft texture. They blend easily and have good staying power. The highlighter included in the palette is silverish pink. It is finely milled and is not too shimmery. It adds a subtle glow to the face and I use it to highlight my brow bone too.

Makeup Revolution I Heart Makeup Go Palette Blush, Bronzer and Highlighter Swatches

At the end here is an eye makeup look I created using eye shadows from this palette. For this look I have used the pearly pink eye shadow (second from right side) in the inner corner of eye. The satin pink taupe shade (third shade from right) on my lid. I have blended the darkest shade in my crease and outer-v and have used the highlighter from this palette on brow bone.

Eye Look Created Using Makeup Revolution Go Palette

All in all, this is a decent affordable palette by Makeup Revolution. Despite some minor cons, I think this palette is really good and I like it. It is an all-in-one palette that contains gorgeous neutral eye shadows, blushers and a highlighter. The quality of the eye shadows and blushes is not as great as other Makeup Revolution palettes but it is still good enough for the price. This palette is perfect for traveling or carrying in bag. It is also great for makeup beginners who don't want to invest in expensive palettes. This palette has a nice combination of essential eye and cheeks colors that every girl needs to have and I definitely recommend you to try this out.


The Goods:

• An all-in-one eyes and cheek palette
• Contains 6 gorgeous eye shadows with different finishes
• Contains gorgeous neutral matte blushes
• Contains a good-sized gorgeous highlighter
• All the shades have soft and blendable texture
• Good pigmentation
• Decent staying power
• Good for grab-and-go
• Cute packaging
• Affordable

The Bads:

• The brown blush/contouring shade is not very pigmented
• Few eye shadows can cause fallout in the pan
• Availability in Pakistan

Price & Availability:  Makeup Revolution I Heart Makeup Go Palettes are available at Facebook page Beauty World for PKR 890/- each. Also available online at Just4girls.pk and Daraz.pk.
For international readers, the palette is available at Makeup Revolution Website for £6.49. Currently for £2.99 only (sale price).
