Bella Voste - Overview ( Part 3 - Eye/Brow Liner)


Yes people, we are on a Bella Voste ride. In our March 2018, GlamEgo box we had the option of choosing between a brow liner, eye - liquid liner/gel liner and mascara. Lulu picked the gel eye liner (Black) and I picked the brow-liner (Brunette Brown).

Note to the readers: Products rated by Lulu are the ones she got in her Box/Bag ergo products rated by me are the ones I got in my Box, as this is a co-written review.

Here’s our review of both the products:

Brow Liner
Shade:Brunette Brown


I finally tried the Brow-Liner and even though I had wanted a ‘brow’ product I didn’t know what good it would do me. I don’t particularly have scanty eyebrows and I don’t get my eyebrows done very thin. They are decently thick but I like them thicker. Hence I took the pencil and went about gently filling the ends (towards the nose bridge) and outlined my eyebrows so the shape didn’t get distorted. Since this pencil comes with a spooly the colour blends in well with my brows and they looked ‘fuller’. It doesn’t make one look scary. (Imagine all the girls you’ve ever seen lining their eyebrows with a kajal/kohl  pencil.) The brows look naturally thick and yep, they did make me look a wee bit different.

Gel Eye liner
Shade:Velvet Black 01


The product claims to be waterproof, lasting up to 8 hours, extremely soft and gliding like a liquid liner, even colour pay off and easy to blend post application.
This is the first time I’ve used a gel eye-liner and I LOVE this product. (I have always been using liquid liner on my upper lids). The gel eye-liner does glide on ever so smoothly and looks like liquid liner when applied. One may blend it immediately after application before it dries out (Haven’t tried blending it).  But once set, the colour doesn’t budge. The colour is jet-black with a good colour pay-off.  This product is all that it says it is!
Even the bit about it being waterproof! Even after using a wet-wipe, eye-make up remover and a face wash, I was still left looking like a Panda and this would be the only con if I had to point one out.


Lasting Power: Till you wash it off!
Rating by Lulu: 4.8/5
Price: INR 399

Bella Voste offers a decent range of colours for the gel eye liner - sky blue, metal grey, metal brown and black but offers just one shade in their brow liner range, which is the one we have reviewed above.

Google Pixel XL - Review

Image
I had been meaning to change my phone for over a year and it was then that this phone had caught my eye – The Google Pixel XL. I had read so much about it. Found that a lot of people that I am surrounded by had no intentions of getting it. Here is the thing, my sole reason for investing in a gadget has to do with the following: ·         Its price should be within a certain range i.e it should not burn a hole in my wallet. ·         It should at least be guaranteed that the product will be receiving software support for a minimum of 3 years. ·         It should have excellent user interface to make life easy and be a tool for communication as well as relaxation. ·         It should have a good camera. ·         Its accessories must be easily available in the market. It’s with the help of this list that I short listed my “This the phone I’d like to own” list ·         Google Pixel XL (128GB) – INR 56,229 ·         One Plus 5T (128 GB) – INR 37,795 ·         Moto Z2 Play (64GB)   - INR 2

Hey Little Girl... Part I

The little girl aped her elder brother. To her, he was the coolest dude that existed. She was the kid in school who was spoken to because she was so and so’s sister. As a kid she was extremely naïve. Her brother was the quizzer, the topper, the teacher’s pet, the social guy and everybody liked him. She on the other hand was the brat, the swimmer, a teacher’s nightmare, anti social and didn’t want to be liked by anyone. They were polar opposites of each other. Her brother - the witty charmer and She, the *shrugs shoulders* and very impolitely leaving conversation kind of person. Perhaps… the younger version of her envied the ease with which her brother was able to make friends and be at the core of everything that was happening in school. The fact that they were so different and studied in the same school eventually led to teachers constantly comparing them. It wasn’t anything she couldn’t handle. But imagine a little girl always being chastised and all sermons ending with, “why

The Journey

Last weekend was amazing. It began by me traveling solo from Mysore to Madras. I plonked my bags at my best friend's place. Her roomie, she and I headed to Mahabalipuram where we saw the famed sculptures carved out of single boulders. The carvings are pretty intricate and the sight is very pretty but the highlight of the visit was a monkey. While we were leaving the place we saw a troop of monkeys and one of them immediately took a fancy to my friend’s roomie. Now this girl is scared of almost every animal. It became very obvious to her that the monkey was eying the bottle in her hand. She threw it at the monkey. The monkey picked it opened the bottle and gulped the juice and looked so pleased! It was a sight. It does not seem hilarious in print but it was incredibly funny. But before going to Mahablipuram we stopped at the Crocodile Park where I learnt to hold a baby crocodile and also a python. I actually felt the crocodile gulp when I was holding it. The place
