What the Company claims: Leave your mark with bold, rich, vibrant colours. Hardwearing and chip-resistant with individual finishes from matt to high gloss. Apply two coats for intensity and use with Illamasqua Nail Base Coat and Illamasqua Nail Top Coat for the perfect finish. Talk with your hands and make a statement.
Tips For application, try the 3 line technique: First wipe off the brush at the bottleneck of the nail varnish bottle; the brush must be covered evenly with product and must not drip. The first line of nail varnish is applied in the middle of the nail, from the cuticle to the nail top, in a long, soft line. The second line goes on one side of the nail and the third line on the other side. This guarantees even distribution of the shade. Additional layers may be applied to suit coverage desired.

What the Company claims: If the eyes are the windows of the soul, our new Masquara in Raven (midnight black) reveals a heart of darkness with a new formula that lengthens, defines and dramatises lashes to extremes.
The happy union of our unique brush design and new smudge proof formula ensures lashes can last the whole night through.
Tips Apply our new Masquara using the specially designed brush provided. Start the application from the bottom of the lashes moving upwards and outwards. Re-apply for a bolder look. For a dramatic effect, swirl the brush in the palm of your hand, pick up the product with an eye-brow brush and apply on the lashes starting from the bottom of the lashes sweeping upwards.
It has the sleek long packaging and has 10 ml product which would last quite long. The brush is huge and perfect for lengthening effect as claimed. The formula is nice..not too thick..and so it does not clumps lashes too. It gives those long fluttery dark lashes which I guess most of us love..dont we..
Curled lashes..before mascara
After Mascara- one coat
See the lengthening
Pros:
1. Huge brush..perfect for length. 2. Not too thick or gooey types. 3. Does not clump lashes much. 4. Even one coat gives enough length. 5. Jet black. 6. Its not waterproof but it still does not smudge in humidity..thats like damn nice. 7. Comes off easily with any normal cleanser. 8. Enough qty.
Cons:
1. This would not give you volume, if you prefer that. 2. Expensive for a mascara. 3. Available only at Illamasqua store or from their online shop.
Overall I loved the fluttering long dark lashes it gives…and its ease of use.

Modern Smoky (Soft Grey, Dark Grey, Black)
Modern Smoky
T-B: Soft Grey, Dark Grey, Black
The quality of these eye shadows is pretty nice..they are very pigmented and do not crease even without a primer and stay for a decent amount of time. But these are very very soft and one needs to handle them well..or they would just crumble.
One had already crumbled before reaching me :/ The soft grey is totally broken and it has spread around on other shadows too..even after cleaning I am not able to get the exact color of the other shadows.
They come in a nice compact which has a mirror and a sponge tip applicator..one side big and the other side smaller. Its quiet handy to carry..and they have a pretty butterfly design on each of their eye shadows.
Pros:
1. Silky smooth texture.
2. They are quite pigmented.
3. Stay on long without creasing.
4. They adhere to the skin and using them is quite easy.
5. Packaging is nice and easy to carry around.
6. Single eye shadow is quite economical at Rs.130/- and it contains 2.5 g of product which would last quite long and the quality is worth the price.
7. Some shades are matte and some satiny..but these are not too shimmery and can be worn anywhere.
Cons:
1. These are quite delicate and one needs to be careful in using them..or else they would just crumble away.
2. One weird thing is the pricing. Individual shadows are priced at 130 and three together with the compact at 995. The cost for three shadows would be 390 and if the rest of the price is for the compact, I would suggest getting the individual ones.
3. Availability is an issue though..you can only get them online.
Overall I quite liked the quality of these eye shadows and I do recommend trying the individual ones. I would do EOTDs soon 🙂

About the Luminous Pressed Powder
What the Company claims: Natural minerals combine to make this powder reflective and refractive, adding a soft luminous glow to your complexion. Use as the finishing touch after foundation or tinted moisturiser, or alone for soft natural colour. Beautifully presented in our classic aluminium compact.
Powders appear darker in the pan than on the complexion so choose a shade darker than you would normally wear.
To use: wear alone or over foundation or tinted moisturiser. Apply a light covering over face with Living Nature face brush. Use powder puff applicator for touch ups when required.
For all skin types.
Ingredients INCI:
Talc (CI 77718), Mica (CI 77019), Squalane, Titanium dioxide (CI 77891), Zea mays (corn) starch, Zinc stearate, Olea europea (olive) fruit oil, Hydrated silica, Iron oxides (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499), Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) seed oil**, Sorbic acid, Tocopherol acetate (vitamin E), Glycerin soja (soybean) oil **Certified organic
MRP: US$ 37.00 / 14g
Shades Available: Light,Medium and Deep
I have the Medium shade of this luminous pressed powder. It comes in a Black aluminium case with mirror and sponge applicator and is refillable..Now if I have to end this review in two words I would say it is THE BEST. Period.
I read reviews when I had not tried it, where people said its better and they prefer it over their MAC MSFN..I was like ya then it should be something. It evens out the skin tone, gives light to medium coverage and gives that perfect luminous glow to the skin. It does not make the face look cakey at all or give that too matte effect.
See the little shimmer..but looks fab on the face
MAC MSFN also has fine shimmer particles that give that glow. MAC is priced at Rs. 1350/- for 10g of product and this is a little more expensive but then it has 14g of product and is also made of better and natural ingredients. It never broke me out. I did read reviews of MAC MSF on makeupalley and many of them said it broke them out..probably coz of the tons of ingredients it had.
Pros:
1. Awesome packaging..love that black case with a huge wide mirror and the design on the powder. 2. Gives light to medium coverage and evens out the skin. 3. It does give that luminous glow to the face true to its claim. 4. Has natural organic ingredients..now I would love natural ingredients in cosmetics. 5. Does not test on animals and recyclable packaging for all products. 6. Works equally well for touch ups with the sponge. 7. Perfect to carry..you would not need a separate mirror when carrying this as its quite wide. 8. Even though it has very fine shimmer it does not show up on the face and gives a pretty nice glow. 9. 14g is going to last real long. 10. It never broke me out.
Cons:
1. Sponge becomes quite dirty and cleaning that would be difficult. 2. Not available easily. Though you can buy it online here..they have a standard shipping of 10.00 US$ for how much ever products you buy. So if you buy only one product that would be a little expensive. 3. A little expensive but this is totally worth it. 4. Only 3 shades to choose from.
Overall I am in love with this !! Which you people must have guessed by now :p

Sure Women Natural Minerals Pure Anti Perspirant Roll On
Sure was a UK bases brand and Unilever brought it to India. Its been launched around a year back and Asin is the brand Ambassador for it.
An amazing 12 million women in the UK alone, use Sure every day – making it the UK’s favourite deodorant. In fact, it was recently voted the most trusted deodorant in the UK*
*Source: Reader’s Digest Most Trusted Brands Survey 2009
A revolutionary deodorant range that works in sync with your body’s needs. The result? Intelligent microcapsules that release more protection when you need it most and less when you don’t.
SureWomen is available in 250ml & 150ml Aerosol, 50ml Roll On and 50ml Stick and also includes;
Sure Natural Minerals Sure Crystal Sure Maximum Protection
What the Company claims: Sure Natural Minerals – 48hr protection that allows skin to breathe
Combines natural extracts and a natural mineral with expert anti-perspirant technology to help keep skin feeling fresh, soft and dry while giving you 48hr protection. 0% alcohol
MRP: Rs.115/- (This one is the UK manufactured) or 1.75£ for 50ml and 3.50£ for 100ml
In India, the Sure anti-perspirant range consists of three variants – Passion and Free spirit for women and Sport Defense for Men. All these variants are available as roll-ons and in aerosol cans and are priced at Rs 65 for 40 ml and Rs 40 for 25 ml.
I am not sure of the Indian ones as I have not tried those. I had bought this from Alfa in Mumbai which stocks all imported stuff.
I do not use this everyday but yes when I have to spend too much time out in hot humid climate. This one matches half the claim they make but not all. It would not keep you completely dry if you are a person who sweats a lot in humidity..I do ! But it surely keeps you smelling good and fresh. It looks transparent and watery and has a fresh aqua kind of fragrance.
Pros:
1. I liked the fact that it keeps you smelling fresh all day long. 2. Economically priced. 3. The ones manufactured in India are easily available but I am not sure if they are eqaully good. 4. 0% alcohol. 5. Easy to carry around. 6. Dries fast..you need not wait for it to dry.
Cons:
1. I am a bit skeptical about using roll ons and so I do not use it everyday. 2. Well the 48 hour claim is a little high and who is going to check that either ways ! 3. The ones available in India Passion and Free Spirit are different from this one..I do not know how effective or good those are.
Overall I quite liked them..they did work for me.

BB cream, also known as Blemish Balm, Blemish Base or Beblesh Balm, is a cosmetic item sold mainly in East and Southeast Asia.
Originally formulated in Germany by Dr. med. Christine Schrammek,it was initially used by dermatologists to help laser surgery patients protect, soothe and refine highly sensitive skin while providing light coverage for post-laser scars, acne and other blemishes.
BB creams come in a variety of different formulations and qualities. Some are said to have skin whitening or brightening properties. Others are anti-acne, some are anti-wrinkle, some are intended to even out skin tone, and yet others to lighten blemish scars. BB creams are sometimes used like a primer under foundation, and if tinted may even replace foundation and some newer ones will have functions of primer, foundation, moisturizer, sun block, pore minimization and skin refining together which can save time and money in make-up.
Brands on the market aside others include BRTC – Bio Remedies Therapeutic Cosmetic, Dr. Jart, Lioele, Skin Food, The Face Shop, Missha and SKIN79.
In recent years BB cream has gained a huge following for its skin-regenerating functions and is now also widely used in Asia to provide natural-looking skin coverage. The fact that BB cream is often named the “the secret of Korean actresses” gained it huge exposure in Asian markets.
So basically its a skincare/healing product combined with makeup..and so it works as a great everyday base.
Coming to the Konad BB Cream..
What the Company claims: Special Features :
Quick & Easy way to express natural beauty.
Iloje Flobu BB Cream covers the skin imperfections while create youthful natural beauty shine through all day. Experience the freshness when applying this product to your skin without unexpected removing makeup, and therefore, conceal all of your skin troubles using unique color system ingredients without thick pancake makeup.
– Iloje Flobu BB Cream will not only substitute regular facial-foundation but also moisturize your skin while you applied on your skin to protect and help your skin care.
– Film-forming agent which is very active ingredient in Iloje Flobu BB Cream provides long-lasting concealment of your skin imperfections.
– Iloge Flobu BB Cream acts like a shield on your skin, protecting it from harmful sources in the environment. The result is supple, more clear and youthful complexion.
MRP: Rs.950/- for 50g
It comes in a normal tube packaging and the consistency is medium..almost the same as a tinted moisturiser..but you need very little quantity of this comparatively as its spreads along and covers more area..if you get it..but the problem with this is, you need to blend and blend coz of the whitish/greyish cast it gives..like most BB creams..as they also contain sunscreen properties i.e Titanium Dioxide and few other Ingredients.
See the little whitish cast..but also the dewiness
Pros:
1. Works great in evening out the skin tone. 2. Gives a nice dewy finish. 3. Combines hydration,sunscreen and foundation..so using only this would be enough for people who do not need much coverage. 4. Its cheaper than most other BB creams out there…when shipped to India. 5. Tube packaging is easy to use. 6. You need just a little..as less is more with this…so it lasts quiet long.
Cons:
1. You need to blend and blend to lessen the whitish cast. 2. Only one shade available..it would not suit tan/olive skin tones and the whitish cast might make them look ghastly..there should be more shades in this. 3. Its not travel friendly..once I carried it along..and the product oozed out in the cap even with slightest pressure. 4. Availability might be an issue. 5. Oily skinned girls might need to set it with powder..especially on the T zone coz of its dewiness.
Overall I quite liked it..and is a good everyday base which helps even out skin tone and gives a dewy finish.
You can buy Konad makeup, Konad nail art and other stuff from nailsandbeauty.in. It offers free shipping and cash on delivery in India…and if you are a nail art lover, you would love this for sure !!

“We have formulated a unique, high performance beauty must-have that delivers great results on all skin types. Sheer Skin Tint is our first step into effortless, easy to wear colour. It’s a skin thing!” Liz Earle, Co-Founder
Our new Sheer Skin Tint is the natural bridge from skincare through to colour. It is rich and creamy like a foundation, yet so lightweight it glides effortlessly onto the skin, blending easily to enhance natural skin tones. We believe in exceeding our customers’ expectations, so just like our award-winning Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser, Sheer Skin Tint delivers dependable, visible results for all skin types.
Designed for use all year round, our unique, high performance formulation leaves skin looking dewy, even and radiant, with the perfect level of coverage for every woman to achieve naturally beautiful skin. With mineral UV protection SPF15, Sheer Skin Tint is also enriched with our own carefully selected blend of botanicals: natural source vitamin E, avocado and borage, to work in harmony with our Liz Earle Naturally Active Skincare range.
First time, right shade
To support our ‘Progress not Perfection’ environmental values and our ‘Reduce, Re-use, Recycle’ campaign, when customers order Sheer Skin Tint by mail, we are providing samples of all three shades with each first purchase. This is to help customers ensure they select the right shade, first time – before they open their full size product, which will also help us avoid unnecessary landfill of good unused product.
Liz Earle Sheer Skin Tint will be available from September 8th 2011.
£21.00/40ml in 3 shades;
Bare (for light skin tones)
Beige (for medium skin tones)
Beach (for medium to dark skin tones)
The Colour Story
Our journey in search of great skin began in 1995 with one simple goal; to create simple, fuss-free, high performance skincare that could be depended on every day, whatever your age or skin type. With that aim in mind we created our multi award-winning Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser, which 16 years on, has changed the way women around the world in over 90 countries now cleanse their skin.
Today each and every one of our products continue to be made with the same level of care and devotion. Now we’re combining our heritage with the expertise of a specially chosen team of make up professionals, to create our much requested colour range.
Over the last 16 years our customers have been asking us to create a make up range that gives the same great results as our skincare. As a trusted beauty specialist, Liz has over 20 years of personal experience working with leading international make up artists for TV and photo shoots. Co-founders Liz and Kim also share a personal passion for natural-looking make up at home and work, all of which helps us to really understand what women want from their make up. This has ensured that our exciting next step is everything a woman would want and need: make up that really performs, works in harmony with and delivers the same dependable results as their Liz Earle Naturally Active Skincare and looks natural, enhancing rather than masking their skin.
Our island home is the inspiration for the packaging design. Our own unique ‘marine’ colour and shimmering pearl finish reflect the way the warm summer sunshine gently filters down through the glistening, inky depths of The Solent. Our new logo design reflects our evolution into Liz Earle Colour.
How to use:
Apply to forehead, nose, cheeks and chin. Blend in with your fingertips. We recommend that you leave around 10 minutes for your moisturiser to sink in before applying our Sheer Skin Tint. A little really goes a long way. For a lightweight look and feel apply a very small amount. Sheer Skin Tint is buildable, so if you want more coverage apply another thin layer, rather than applying more at once.
Liz Earle Sheer Skin Tint currently caters for light skin tones to medium-dark Caucasian skin tones; it will also be suitable for some Asian skin tones. As we develop the range further we will develop a wider range of shades for more ethnic skin tones.
