H&M RANDOM FALL HAUL!


Hello Fashionistas! Today i bring to you my H&M 'Fall Haul', which to be honest was really random & spur of the moment, def not entirely 'fall' appropriate but Dubai is a HOT place so fall-attire here entails a coat/blazer and some leggings, for me atleast. Not complaining though as i love layering! It was an impulsive shopping spree. H&M does that to you, its one of those fail-safe brands for me wherein whenever i go, i always come out with a big shopping bag full of stuff i clearly do not 'need'! So enough with all the jibber-jabber lets get on with the review..

THE PRECIOUS DROP MULTIPURPOSE OIL! REVIEW*


Another MULTI-PURPOSE oil which works. This one is an all organic luxury oil called KACTUS by ThePreciousDrop. Its a luxury oil that helps combat and stall various anti ageing processes (reduces pores, marks, dark circles, increases elasticity, improves skin texture, is anti-inflammatory, targets skin sagging & stretch marks & evens the skin tone & texture etc). I used it daily for almost 4 weeks or more with 2 drops every use, (its recommended atleast 2-3 drops on the face for every use) added it to my night routine before sleeping as i personally feel thats the only time our body gets to work & heals itself. Read on for my thoughts and a full review.

MINI MAC HAUL'15!





I posted an Instagram post sometime back with a MAC haul and some of you wanted me to show what i got, so here it. This was such a impulsive buy and i am so glad, the MAC counters out here are always out of stock and that bums me out but this relatively new counter in Galleries Lafayette in Dubai mall is so beautifully stocked! Found a lipliner i was hunting down and bought a lipstick as well.

SEPHORA MINERAL COMPACT FOUNDATION REVIEW+SWATCHES.




I love Sephora..they have an amazing selection of brands on their counters, but what most of us often forget or neglect is their own brand products which are pretty darn awesome! I am also one of you and i often ignore the products from SEPHORA BRAND. But thankfully on a recent trip to India i had the opportunity to try some products which i had not seen in Dubai, so i went ahead and bought this mineral foundation powder.
