Kara Nail Polish Remover Wipes Review

Hi guys,

Today I am reviewing these life changing nail polish remover wipes from Kara! I remember the first time ever I came across wipes, I was elated! It’s a pain to sit with cotton balls and acetone/nail paint remover and work on each nail, also that takes forever!

Most of the nail paint removers come in glass bottles and you need to carry cotton balls also, if you want to remove your nail paint on the go or while travelling. Most inconvenient thing ever!

Enter nail polish remover wipes! And your life is sorted, I have tried numerous about 3-4 different brands and absolutely love the idea.

I have been testing these new nail polish remover wipes from Kara and here are my thoughts..

What the Company claims: The pack contains 30 wipes and every wipe is effective in cleansing up to 10 nails!

The wipe contains an Acetone free formulation for effective removal of nail polish, even of the darkest shade. These wipes are made from poly-viscose fibre and contain natural olive oil extracts that prevents drying of nail and skin surrounding nails. Also enriched with skin nourishing vitamin E, it helps in keeping your nails nourished and moisturized at all times. All wipes come with a delightful fruity fragrance, which comes out pleasantly post usage.

This on-the-move pack has been designed for convenience of use anytime anywhere. It can be easily slipped in your bag, used in flights, classrooms, and boardrooms anywhere anytime. All our wipes are dermatologically tested, are Acetone free, Toluene free and Paraben free.

Thus from now on if you’re worrying about chipped nails, all you need is a wipe. A new shade is now just a wipe away and say hello to your nail’s new BFF cause you can wipe off, paint on wherever you are. All with Kara Nail Polish Remover Wipes.

About Kara:  Kara is a quality product brought to you by Future Consumer Enterprise Limited. Kara wipes are manufactured at our conversion plant at Kharach. This plant is FDA approved and the manufacturing process is carried out under stringent conditions to ensure user safety and hygiene. Each Kara wipe is made from Viscose fibres, a 100% natural bio-degradable fibre.

MRP: Rs.100/- for one pack of 30 wipes

Availability: Currently on 20% discount on Nykaa.com HERE and offline available at Big Bazaar, Health & Glow, Star Bazaar, Hypercity, Beauty stores, etc.

Variants:

  • Rose
  • Lemon
  • Orange
  • Strawberry

I had about 2-3 packs of nail polish remover wipes and I haven’t been able to find them at my place, post shifting. You won’t believe but I haven’t painted my nails often since the time I lost those :/ It’s a pain to remove nail paints with a normal nail paint remover once you have tried these wipes. Also if I use acetone free nail paint remover, it takes me literally ages to remove paint from one single nail! I get so tired by the end of it, that I have stopped doing my nails on my own unless I go for a professional manicure-pedicure.

And thanks to Kara, my life is sorted again! I am so glad Kara has come up with nail polish remover wipes and that too in four different variants.

Each variant smells really good and the smell stays on your nails for some time. My favourites are rose and lemon. It comes in a round box and the box is very tiny and handy, it is almost the size of your fingers, as you can see in the image here.

Each wipe is super thin and made with poly-viscose fibre. You can feel how thin the wipe is, it is almost see through. Having tried 2-3 different brands, I have to admit this is the thinnest wipe I have used and the material feels superior quality in touch and feel.

One wipe is enough to remove paint from all 10 fingers at a time. It is so easy and convenient to use, I did not have to go over my nails twice, even with a dark nail paint. As you can see here, I just tried to lift one pad and it already took some nail paint off from the finger.

I love the ease of use! And the fact that it is Acetone free, Toluene free and Paraben free. The olive oil and Vitamin E leave the nails super moisturized. Normal nail paint removers leave my nails so dry that I have to immediately apply some oil or hand cream.

Also these are the most economical ones in the market considering the price and quality. These are more travel friendly too, I would say keep one in your bag all the time. You never know when your nail paint might chip and bare nails are better than chipped nail paint!

At Rs.100 for 30 pads, it comes to Rs.3.33 for one pad which is enough to remove nail paint from all fingers. Even if you change your nail paint every week, this will last you months.

I am highly impressed and definitely recommend the Kara Nail Polish Remover wipes! Stock up on these at the current Nykaa sale for just Rs.80!

Faces Sparkle Dust Stackable Glitter Review, Swatches, Ways to Use

Faces Sparkle Dust Stackable Glitter Review, Swatches, Ways to Use

Hi guys, If you remember Faces Cosmetics had stack of pigment eyeshadows, they had a different name earlier, they have relaunched it with a new name and they are called Stackables now, since you can stack 4-5 shades one upon the other.

These come in 4 different families of colors, Wild i.e. more greens and blues, Zeebra i.e monochromes grey, white, black, Whish i.e. loads of bright colors and finally Glitter which are all glitter pigments and mostly metallic.

I am reviewing the Glitter one today.

What the Company claims: This concentrated shimmer is especially handy when you want shimmery, sultry eyes or to create unforgettable drama. Available in stacks of inspired color themes to help you create the most unique and stunning look.

MRP: Rs. 899/- (Available for INR 764 on Nykaa but currently OOS)

While the rest stackables have 5 shades and are priced at 799, the Glitter one has 6 shades and priced at 899.

I love how they are perfectly stacked one upon the other and you cannot misplace any shade as all have to be together since the base of one pigment jar is the cap of the other. Which also means you cannot carry them individually :/ I would have loved if they came with additional separate 4 caps to carry them individually too.

I absolutely love each and every shade in this Glitter Stackable, there are numerous options you can do with this.

Silver- True cool toned silver

Gold – Warm bronzy gold

White – My favourite, pure white with blue green duochrome effect.

Sky Blue – True Sky Blue mixed with a bit of silver

Plum – Aubergine Plum with gold

Deep Navy Blue – Deep Navy Blue with silver

What I love most about these is that the glitter is very finely milled and not at all chunky, it’s not like thick glitter much visible to eye and you cannot feel this. This feels soft and almost like a powder, even though it’s a glitter.

L-R: Navy Blue, Plum, Sky Blue, Silver, Gold, White

Numerous ways in which you can use these pigments:

1. As an eyeshadow obviously. You can dampen your brush with a makeup setting spray, take the pigment and apply directly on the lid.

2. Use glitter glue/Duraline and make an eyeliner with it, you can make 6 different colored eyeliners.

3. Mix with clear nail paint to get colored glitter nail paint. I would suggest taking some in an empty nail paint bottle or some base as you don’t want to mix the complete nail paint with single glitter option when you can try multiple options every time 🙂

4. Make only one figure glittery like the ring finger, I love doing this and as you can see I have done that above.

5. Try glitter french manicure by applying clear top coat on the tips and dipping them in glitter.

6. You can also use the white glitter one as highlighter, the matte sparkle dust in pinks/plums as blushes.

7. Use the white to highlight cupid’s bow too and mattify your pink/purple lipsticks by just dabbing some matte pigment on top. It will also make the colors look vivid and makes the lipsticks stay longer. A makeup artist tried that once on me during a shoot and the lipstick stayed much longer and I loved how vibrant and matte it looked.

There are endless possibilities with pigments and glitters in makeup. Experiment and have fun, my most favourite ways of using are definitely as eyeliner and single nail with glitter.

I would definitely recommend getting the Faces Stackables, the color option is something that depends on your personality and kind of makeup you look. If you are more into basic smokey, go for Zeebra. If you love colors, go for Whish while the Glitter one definitely has multiple uses and can work for everyone. Also I would suggest buying it from Nykaa only when it is on discount, coz  INR 764 is a great deal.

What about you? Do you like playing with pigments?

Live Your Now (LYN) come in a square shaped bottle with black cap. It has different collections like Reds,Greens,Corals bifurcated on the basis of colors and also Glitters,Sugar Rush,Sheers on the basis of finish and texture.

The formula is France based and it is indeed nice. 2 coats are all you need for a perfect,opaque coverage and it gives a super,smooth finish. Pigmentation wise its quite bright and the glossy finish and coverage is perfect.

It goes on smooth without any streaks and the best part is, it stays for a good 9-10 days with just a bit of chipping at the tips. Really impressed by the staying power and the color and finish does not get dull too. It has even survived 2 weeks with just a bit of chipping and the finish gets a bit dull later on. But no nail enamel has stayed that long on me!

It comes in 100 shades with all possible finishes and different textures. I am really keen on trying out the Glitters and Sugar Rush next.

I have tried the shades ‘No Morning Blues‘ and ‘Didya Vinka At Me’ untill now. All the 100 shades have such fun,quirky names 😀 No Morning Blues was a part of the February My Envy Box.

No Morning Blues is a creamy bright pastel blue

Didya Vinka At Me is a super creamy bright deep raspberry pink. Lot of people asked me about this shade :p

I absolutely love the finish and quality. Though its slightly higher priced, but the quantity of 12ml is good and also the quality is fab, maybe we can have a smaller size at a lesser price. I like that idea in nail enamels of having a lesser quantity so that we can use it completely and also have more colors.

Its available online on My Envy Box,Purplle and Nykaa. I hope it is more easily available soon both online and offline.

I highly recommend trying these, you can thank me later 🙂

Ok, so if you follow me on my facebook, twitter or Instagram, you would know how I and my fellow blogger friend Dollie from Indian Shringar selected this shade Blazing Blue to be a part of Color Show Bright Sparks range. Similarly there were few other bloggers who selected these 7 shades.

After the Maybelline Glitter Mania launch, we did this secret activity to select the shades for this new Bright Sparks range which was supposed to be the festive cum autumn/winter range.

I like the fact that a brand includes us bloggers to be a part of their collections and launches in some or the other way. Feels good to be a part of this launch.

I got this shade which we selected along with these 5-6 pics (shown above) from the event which were clicked while we were selecting the shades.

Coming to this shade 706 Blazing Blue, its a bright ink blue which instantly brightens your hands and make your hands look pretty.

The texture, brush, etc is all exactly like the Maybelline Color Show range. I would say the only issue is, it started chipping from the tips in 1-2 days but not too much.

Overall, I love the brush and the smoothness, the price and the shades. Pretty pigmented and in 2 coats, you are sorted.

Rating: 4.25/5

I so want to try the Burnished Gold, Firewood Brown and Spark of Steel! They sound amazing.

Also, I would be giving away 10 of these Blazing Blue to 10 of you!! So, stay tuned for the contest and the hashtag #BlazeOfPassion.

At just Rs.125, this range is very accessible!

MRP: Rs.125/- for 6ml (Buy on Flipkart HERE)

Shades Available: 8

  • 601 All That Glitters (Gold)
  • 602 Dazzling Dive (Silver)
  • 603 Starry Nights (Black)
  • 604 Red Carpet
  • 605 Matinee Mauve
  • 606 Paparazzi Purple
  • 607 Pink Champagne
  • 608 Bling on the Blue

So, to start with, I am loving the names..so fun and quirky..these come in a small cute bottle same as the Color Show Nail Paints.

We got to try one shade at the event itself..and I picked and applied 607 Pink Champagne..its on my nails from the last Friday..today being the 6th day. And so I though lets review these before I change onto some other shade (Was so tempted to :p)

I had applied 2 coats of the shade and I got full opaque coverage with the 2 coats..it feels matte and gritty coz of the liquid sand technology..but I personally loved this finish.

The color did not dull out or fade..but on your right hand nails, if you cook or eat or something, the finish gets slightly different after 2-3 days..I am quite impressed by the staying power of these..it did not chip at all..and only after 4-5 days, I saw the color go off from the tips but not too visible or obvious. I am loving the staying power.

Also, as with all glitter nail polishes, I thought it would be a pain to remove these..but surprisingly and thankfully, it was not much of an issue and they came off pretty smoothly than expected.

Today I have swatches of Pink Champagne and the rest on each finger which I just changed after writing the review for a better description.

601 All That Glitters (Gold)- Dull Gold with silver shimmer

602 Dazzling Dive (Silver)- Bright Silver with silver shimmer..my fellow nail blogger Dhara Singh of The Happi Therapy found it to be an exact dupe of OPI Liquid Sand in It’s Frosty Outside.

603 Starry Nights (Black)- Deep Black with silver shimmer

604 Red Carpet- True Red with pink and silver shimmer (Good shade for bridal wear)

605 Matinee Mauve- Deep Pink Mauve with silver and pink shimmer

606 Paparazzi Purple- Bluish Purple with silver and blue shimmer

607 Pink Champagne- Champagne Pink with silver shimmer

608 Bling on the Blue- Sky Blue with silver shimmer

My favorites are the Pink Champagne, Silver and Gold. Would do an NOTD with Red and Silver soon..Red would make a nice wedding season shade.

Ok..so an announcement here..I am running a small contest on my twitter and Instagram in association with Maybelline where you guys need to send me your nailfies (Ya like selfies,nailfies :p) That is, your nail art or any nail of the day pictures using the Maybelline Color Show or the Color Show Glitter Mania range (or any Maybelline nail paint).

I loved the gold embossing and the packaging..this as claimed are indeed, super pigmented ! I was surprised by the pigmentation the first time I applied it..


I generally have to build up nail colors..even the darker ones..as to minimum 2-3 coats..this was :swoosh: in one coat..super duper bright..no second coat drama !

Its super glossy and no need of a top coat too. The brush is easy to use..

Only issue being it started chipping from the tips the second day..and then all over after 3-4 days..I wished it stayed longer..and also takes time to dry..but nonetheless, the pigmentation is just amazing..


I have applied Hollywood Red here..even Pink Drama is bright and pigmented..



Hollywood Red is a true bright bold red.


Pink Drama is a deep raspberry pink..just love this shade !

Tea Rose is a neutral rosy pink..one of those nude pinks..good for formal wear.

Would do an NOTD with a lighter shade like Tea Rose too..

I highly highly recommend Hollywood Red for brides-to-be ! And the Pink Drama too..one of my HG now..This is one must have nail enamel !

230 Bonsai is a grass green shade with gold shimmer..

Something which I have never tried till date..quite a different shade..and it looked so fab ! I even received compliments for the shade 😀
 
I lovee the shade Passionate Pink, Blue Slate, French Roast, Sequin, Vintage Rose..I think I love all the shades ! Such unique, interesting and fab shades..but they have released 30 shades in the US and only 16 here..I am disappointed 🙁 I hope they have some good shades for us here too..
 
Highly Recommended !

Faces Neon Matte Nail Enamel Fire Stick Review, NOTD
 
By now, all of you must be knowing about these super gorgeous bright neon matte nail enamels launched by Faces.
 
I have reviewed 75 Ibiza HERE and 76 Bubblepop HERE
 
MRP: Rs.229/- for 9ml
                                      
They come in normal Faces Nail Enamels packaging..the brush is awesome..no streaking or spreading out..dries quickly..and it stays and stays !
 
This shade is wrongly named as Bubblepop..as you can see Bubblepop is a bubblegum pink and Ibiza is a bright coral..
 
This shade is brighter then Ibiza..a mix of orangey coral and pink..I was thinking it might not be as bright as Fire Stick..but then there are no other shades left out of the 5 neon shades launched..
 
Goes opaque in 2-3 coats and stays for a long time..more than a week.
 
The brush is super easy to use and gives a nice, smooth streak free finish. It dries super quick..no hassles of waiting..its TOLUENE & DBP, Camphor and Formaldéhyde free. 

Perfect quality and good enough quantity..justified price..I have all 3 brights..Ibiza, Bubblepop and this..
 

Highly recommended !
