10 Hottest Neon Eye Makeup Looks

Eyes are a statement of their own. If you are a girl who parties late night, goes to clubs and raves, I'm sure you want to step up your makeup game. Who wants to see the patent smoky eyes every night? The pictures come at the same even though you clicked them at different occasions. Do you want to take up challenges? Indulge in the super glorious Neon makeup looks which will shine the spotlight directly on you while you make your own fashion statement.
Check out these top 10 coolest Neon eye styles and make your parties fun filled and pictures awesome like never before!

Go for the Low!
Sick of your basic eye shadow looks because whatever you do, they appear identical? Fret not. Simply follow the 'Low'. Paint your upper lids in a nude shade and bring out the focus on your eyes instead. Simply apply a neon eye shadow on your lower lash line and witness the charisma within a jiffy!

Single Strike Brightness
If you are not a makeup junkie and find it hard to apply eyeshades proportionately, here is an easy style for you.
Be the talk of the town with a single strike across the eye lids.
Choose your favorite neon eyeliner color from Inglot, Italia or Elf.

The Round Affair
It is the ultimate look when it comes to neon colors. Check out the precision!
The makeup artist has done an excellent job by mimicking cat eye makeup in the neon fashion with zero eyeliner. The eyes look fabulous, perfect for a neon party!
Tip: Wear matching earrings.

Cotton Candy Inspired
Have you ever eaten cotton candy? Do you remember how fluffy and tasty it is? If it reminds you of your childhood, get inspired and allow your eyes to glow all night long with the amazing two- shade eye makeup technique.
Simply purchase a neon glowing eyeshade palette, preferably from Urban Decay (Electric Palette). The trick here is to let your imagination flow. There is no rule of the application here. Mimic this style by applying the shades above and below your eyes, covering them as a whole up to the brows, like panda eyes!

The Blue Sky
Isn't this just out of this world? The perfect arch shaped design looks fantabulous when paired with a hint of yellow on the tear ducts.
While eyeshades will give you a softer look, if you want a look as intense as this picture, go for neon eyeliner pencils.
Tip: Apply a white primer on the eye lids before the neon shades for a brighter outcome.

The Rainbow Shimmer
This dolled up look is not for amateurs. It requires patience and serious skills. Maybe hire a makeup artist for this one?!
With a blend of illuminating eye shades, glittery gel liners, neon eyeliners and false lashes, this mesmerizing style is out of the ordinary.
Pair this with a hot pink glossy lipstick and flaunt it on the party with friends. Don’t forget to click some snaps!

Poison Potion
Ooh! We love the deadly appeal. Doesn’t it make the eyes look mysterious?
This style can be worn for parties, birthdays or even for dinner. If you have the matching outfit, what's stopping you from trying it out?
Grab your eye shades and eyeliner pencils, apply and blend away! Maybe ditch the lip color! Just saying’.

The Hymn
Stepping away from the norm can bring out the innovation for sure. Observe how she reverses the shades by applying the darker on the inside instead of the outer eyes. It looks really cool!
While blue gives her eyes more attention; purple, green and yellow will also appear really different and noticeable.
I'm going to try this one for sure!

Neon Smokey Attraction
Who says you can't mix up two different techniques? Let your creative juices flow and craft a spectacular design of your own.
Witness how the artist played around with neon purple and basic black. Maintaining the balance of both the colors, the eyes have become the focus of the overall get up. That’s the way to go!

Animal Inspired
So ladies! If you want to get into the groove and create something extra ordinary, here's a starting point for you. Perfect for a costume party, this bright neon peacock-leopard look is truly out-of-the-box.
While it will make your eyes larger and grander, you really can't carry this look for a daytime get together! This look is for the gal's who are sporty and creative!

This is it for now! While some neon eye makeup techniques might be too dramatic, some of them are really eye catching. Forget the simple applications and create your perfect neon eyes now!

Top 6 weapons to fight oily skin


http://images.agoramedia.com/everydayhealth/gcms/Best-ingredients-for-oily-skin-01-pg-full.jpg

You go through an elaborate makeup ritual in morning before leaving for work only to discover that your face resembles the look of a disco ball! Because that’s how much oily your face gets! Dealing with oily skin can be a nightmare and with a super oily skin that gets shiny just after minutes of washing face is all the more tougher. But with so many new launches in the makeup market, the ordeal of managing oily skin has definitely gotten easier. Some experiments are still required on your part to find out which products work best on your skin but with genuine reviews floating on beauty product reviews websites, you need not go and buy every product claiming to take away excess shine from face. Here are 10 popular weapons which you must have to fight oily skin:
  1. Gentle cleanser
  • Yes! You read it right! Do not use harsh cleansers that strip away all the moisturize content from your skin, making it scream for hydration. It will only make your oily face oilier. Instead go for a cleanser that removes dirt and oil effectively but in a gentle manner. There are many natural cleansers available online today which you can buy and benefit from. Among the high end brands, Forest essentials and among the lower end brands, Dove makes good choices to buy. Indulge in these Nykaa coupons available on CashKaro.com to enjoy irresistible discounts as well as the advantage of cash back.

  1. Water based moisturizer
  • Do you have a combination skin type or a skin that gets dry and oily at the same time? Do moisturizers either leave your skin looking oily or craving for moisture? If yes, you need water based moisturizer in your life. Water based moisturizers provide sufficient moisturization on oily skin without making it sticky. It’s because they have a light texture and blend in within seconds. This property also makes them great for application before makeup since they don’t take forever to dry. Clean n Clear skin balancing moisturizer is a great budget friendly option provided that salicyclic acid (one of its ingredients) suit you. Get one at discounted prices using Limeroad coupons present on CashKaro.com and bask in the glory of your increasing savings!

  1. Skin primer
  • Most of the people who have an oily skin get two accomplices for free with it! Large open pores and redness! You must have found yourself in embarrassing situations where you went out completely without makeup and suffered from a red face. A skin primer will rescue you out of this problem greatly! There are many types of skin primers in market but for oily skin, go for mattifying skin primers that have a green shade. Green colors cancels red thereby masking your redness. A mattifying primer will decrease the look of your pores and will create a smooth base for foundation to glide on like butter on your skin. You can also wear primer alone topped with compact to combat excess shine. There are specific pore reducing primers too like the famous Benefit Pore-less which work wonders to lessen the appearance of large pores. Since most of the primers in market are loaded with silicone's, it is essential that you check that the ingredient suits your oily skin and doesn’t give your breakouts. L'Oreal Paris Base Magique Primer makes a wonderful option for keeping makeup fresh for longer on oily skin.

  1. Compact
  • Among the simple ways of controlling shine using makeup is a compact. When choosing a compact for an oily skin type, it is essential that you look for words like non-comedogenic and hypo allergic, which are unlikely to cause any bad reaction on your sensitive skin. Don’t be in the misconception that using a compact regularly will cause pimples on your face. Only when you won’t remove it completely at the end of the day, it will pose problems for you. Go for compacts that have a medium coverage to cover your scars decently and choose one shade lighter as after an hour or so, it gets mixed with the oily glands on your face leaving you with a dull complexion. So always go for one shade lighter if you have an oily skin. Colorbar Radiant UV fairness compact power and Lakme nine to five flawless compact powder are quite effective at keeping shine at bay for some good hours.

  1. Setting spray
  • So you have a dance party to attend next week and you are worried how the dance will ruin your makeup and you will end up with smudged eyes and running foundation. Besides investing your money in transfer-proof foundation and eye makeup, it is vital that you use a setting spray which seals all the makeup on your face letting you dance to your heart’s content. A setting spray is a light spray that is sprayed from a distance and helps deflect surface shine by helping makeup stay on for long. A setting spray becomes even more important if you delight in doing full coverage makeup for yourself. Use a setting spray before you head out for your next event and do not worry about your makeup smearing even in long humid hours. There are tons of options available in the market but some of the best ones for you to choose from are NYX Matte setting spray, Urban Decay De-slick oil control setting spray and MUFE mist and fix.

  1. Oil blotting sheets
  • Touch-ups need to be done properly to restore the properties of makeup. When after some hours, you touch-up your face using compact powder on an already oily face; it yields no benefits. Firstly, it is unhygienic to put your compact puff on oily skin and then keeping it back in the case. Secondly, you are putting powder on an oily base. Use oil blotting sheets first to take away oil from your face and then touch-up with compact or loose powder, whatever you use. Good oil blotting sheets will soak up the oil from your face effectively. The Sephors India oil blotting papers not just take away shine but they also do a mini touch-up for you since they are powdered sheets. How great is that! Unfortunately, they are not available online and you will have to visit Sephora exclusively to get them. Other options available are from Oriflame and Beauty formulas.

Hope these products help you control your oily skin! Feel free to add your favourite products which help you fight shine on your face.

#ComeCloser To Radiant Skin

Hey Junkies,

If you follow me on my too many social media platforms you will already know that I am a hardcore makeup junkie, but over that I am very bigger beauty and skin care freak. I love to take care of my skin when I find myself good spare time and I noticed that when you take care of it, it takes care of you.

 Skin care is the most neglected routine among Indians as most of are blessed with gorgeous skin and hair. But having something great already does not mean we do not have to take care of it. In fact, it means that we need to take a little extra care of it. So cutting down to the chase I have some great tips for the for skin care which are using only natural products. When we hear natural we become all ears! Yes, I am sharing only some great natural skin care tips which are very beneficial to the skin and take no time at all to achieve Radiant beautiful skin which can last forever.

Tip # 1
Drinking Water
I know you probably think this is boring / uuurrggg c'mon, we have all heard that too often BUT! We do not practice this enough. I have personally noticed the big difference it had done to my skin after I had started to drink 2 liters of water every single day. My skin appeared dewy and livelier. But this can be achieved only if you stick to it.

Tip # 2
Eliminate puffy eyes 
No need of the expensive night creams and serums or gentle and extremely heavy on wallet massaging machines. Just keep a metal spoon in the freezer for about 10 minutes and later hold the it under your eyes/ on the problem. POOF! gone.. no puffy eyes anymore. This is a great tips to seem wide awake when you have not had good sleep.

Tip # 3
Steam up
No need to go to a salon and instead boil some water in a bowl about 1-2 liters and take your face extremely close to the water wherein the steam gets in your face and then you are able to feel the heat. Cover your head with a towel to condense the heat. Take in the steam for about 15-20 mins and do not forget to breath! After the steam pat dry your face. This method should be practiced at least once every week to open up your pore and let them breathe after. This also helps in blood circulation and help fade away scars and avoids acne.

Tip # 4
Ayurvedic products
Ayurveda has various benefits over cosmetic facial cleansing regimes. An Ayurveda facial care regime improves the texture and health of skin as opposed to a harmful cosmetic one. Its Ayurveda formula combined with the microbicide properties of turmeric prevents oily skin, fights pimples and clears blackheads. VICCO Turmeric Cream over the years has been known for the best anti chemical and only natural products do check them out in the link below.

Fair and Lovely BB cream Challenge: Date Day Look

Hey Pretty Ladies,

Could  there be anything worse than falling sick on a date day..OMG! I wish never. However, I do have a good fix to cover up that tired face and give an instant makeup like finish.

I fell sick with viral flu last night and so I asked myself why not do a makeup look which is date day appropriate which works exceptionally well when you are down with a flu.

If you have read my detailed review on this product  Here you may already how much I really like how the BB looks on me (wheatish completion). And so I decided to make this look more BB cream oriented.

My sick face.
PS: please ignore the Tiara I just felt like wearing it.





As you notice there is instant bright appearance. I like how it can be used in our everyday routine. 

Soon after the BB cream application I set it with some translucent powder. Followed by a rose gold shimmer eye shadow to brigthen my sick lookin eyes. Rose gold is also most suitable for Indian skin tones. I then defined my eyes with some Kohl. Please put some mascara on if you would like. But I just did not feel like it. Add some rosey blush powder on to the apples of your cheeks whilst doing the fishy face. Lastly wear you favourite pink lipstick. You can go for a louder lip colour but I wanted to stick to a minimalistic look. Here are the final look pictures.


Lastly to finish off this look put on a cute outfit suitable for the day also considering summer, don't forget that fruity perfume. Here is an outfit idea I would definitely recommend if you are a girl who loves the colour pink and above all who someone who seeks comfort in style.

Hope you like this post and get inspired.

Fair and Lovely BB cream Meet and Product Review

I was so excited when I was invited to be a part of the FAIR AND LOVELY BB cream launch. I am all in when I hear an all girls meet! It is always a pleasure to meet girls who share the same interests which is Beauty and that's not the only reason I wanted to be a part of this event.

Every since I have stepped into my teens my friends introduced to to my first skin care product i.e. the Fair and Lovely cream. However, I used this product solely because of its awesome moisturizing properties. Also, it was very affordable and did not hurt my piggy bank much. And when I was called for this event, I hear Fair and Lovely---Oh! Yes, please count me in! Oh please! Did I need any more reason to be a part of this lovely event? NOT!

BB creams are now one of the most-''MUST HAVE'' product in your beauty trunk. There are many BB creams in the market so why choose Fair and Lovely BB cream was exactly my question too? And soon as the event began it all began to unfold why this is the best BB cream and why one must own this product. I will list the product details in a while. Let me take you through the event and give you a peak into the fun filled afternoon.

We all gathered at the event which happened at the Novotel Hotel at Juhu on 17th May. It was a pleasant Sunday morning when we all kicked in with a cup of hot coffee to wake us up and get ready for the fun filled day ahead. We were made to pick chits and asked to keep them handy for some lovely activities which would happen in the day. I did meet a few known faces and we gossiped our time to the beginning of the Schedule.


Our lovely lady Freishia was the MC for the day that passed our time and did make it a memorable too. She was beginning the afternoon with a Glass of Sangria, a sweet cocktail with finely chopped fruits and wine. Oh! What a good start. Later we were asked to open our coats and see what's in it. I had a picture of an animated Chanel no. 5 perfume. Someone in the room would have the chit too, and so we were made to sit in pairs and get to know any 3 wacky facts of the opposite person. My partner had been the already so Fair and Lovely Jhilmil Saha. She did disclose some bizarre facts about here, which were freaky and awesome at the same time. She also shared some great trick to use Milk as a cleanser after returning home after a long day outside. Later each pair came up front and shared the facts to all ladies. It was quite fun to hear some. Later we broke into some more games and fun activity where we were asked to form groups and prepare a dance routine. Yes, quite crazy! There was a fun photo booth where we got our instant pictures taken with some fun props lying around. We also had very cute photo taken with all the pretty bloggers together.


I met and got to know many pretty ladies that day. Apart from all the fun filled activities and amazing prizes we were in for a surprise at the end of the afternoon for which I was dying to know. We all enjoyed the yummy lunch, which rightly served at the time we needed some charge for more fun activities ahead of us.

After lunch we split into groups and played against each other to win group prizes. We played Games such as Name- place- animal- thing, but with a twist it had to be Shod, Bags, Perfume and other bags like what's in your bags etc. We did win one and also were a really competitive team. We won almost all the game and bagged all the prizes. OK! No.. That was a lie. However, all team co-incidentally one at least once and got a lovely box of chocolates. My most Favorite game was the passing the Tiara, where Freishia read a rhyme where the lucky ones got to wear it and pass it to another. It was quiet fun.

Oh! After a long day of fun, gossip and games. It was time for the Big surprise. They Hosted a pageant for us! YAY! I was so excited. Through the day they were speculating us and they gave us all a title each. I was titled Miss Best Hair. Oh! What a proud moment it was. I would like to thank My Mother.. Ok, I need to stop... But let me tell you, it was a crazy date with the lovely ladies from the Fair and Lovely team. I loved how they took care of us through the day and mad it fun event.


Coming back to the product. Yes, why must you try this? I know there a tonne of BB creams in the market already but the first point to get you sold over this product is its pricing. Fairly affordable to one and all who need a cheap beautiful makeup like finish. It has a matte and feels non oily unlike the many BB creams in the market. It also has SPF 15 PA++ which is definitely a YAY! And lastly suits most skin tones for our Indian skin and gives an instant fair look.

Product Review





blended
Ever product does have its pros and cons and here are listing few.
PRO'S
- smells pleasant
- packaging is travel friendly
- available in 3 weight contents
- light texture
- instant fairness
- fades marks
- matte finish

CON'S
- low coverage
- not suitable for darker skin tones
- not good for dry skin

Pricing
40gms- Rs 169/-
18gms- Rs 79/-
9gms- Rs 49/-

Feels fairly light on the skin and I would definitely recommend this product to use at least once and judge it yourself. However, this is not the product for dusky skin tones as it would make it look like fake and not believable at all. It does get a little dry on the skin so make sure to exfoliate well and have some moisturizer on before applying. I love the effects it has on my wheatish skin and it is my favorite BB cream for now.

Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition- Happy Hair Challenge

Hey Pretty Pies,

Yes, I am one of those girls who get compliments on her hair too often! (I know you hate me), but  for a fact my hair is not as perfect as they seem to be.

MY CURRENT HAIR STORY- *try not to cry!*
-Dry hair/Undernourished causes lack of shine 
-Hair fall due to weak roots
-Split ends due to hair color
-Dandruff
Oh! My life is a drama!
SEPT 2014
If you read my post on my Ombre hair transformation (HERE) and later how I chopped off my hair (HERE) due to the damage caused by the hair dyes used on my hair, I later realized trimming your hair is not the solution to it, Good hair products and a daily/weekly hair ritual are the most important to avoid problems.

GARNIER FRUCTIS has come up with its latest hair productions which sound like a good solution to my hair problems. So I gladly accept the #HAPPYHAIRCHALLENGE. My current hair condition really needs a miracle and my only hope for this to be a challenge accomplished. I really want happy hair.

WHAT IS THE HAPPY HAIR CHALLENGE?
Garnier India has challenged bloggers all over the country to use their latest Triple Nutrition shampoo and conditioner and review them over a month. 
PSST: I will be 100% honest with my review.

WHAT THE PRODUCTS PROMISE?
SHAMPOO

WHAT IS IN THE PRODUCT?
Almond Oil, Lemon Peel Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Apple Fruit Extract, Sugarcane Extract, Olive Oil, Water, Coconut Oil, Glycerin.

MY OPTION AFTER 1 USE
I love the how both the shampoo and conditioner smells! It's a mild fragrance with a hint of floral and more citrus fruit like. The shampoo is average runny white translucent consistency like any other shampoo and lathers quite well. The Conditioner is a smooth texture almost opaque which makes your hair smell pleasant and feel both soft and smooth. Love the packaging reminds me of the summer sun and mangoes! The bottle can be easily opened, though I find it difficult to differentiate between the shampoo and conditioner.

I WILL BE BACK SOON..
I usually wash my hair twice a week, I oil massage my scalp/hair twice a month. I am going to test this product with my usual hair routine for the next 25 days. Really hoping to get that ALIA BHATT like silky, shiny locks as in the ad banner below!

 

I will be posting a micro post after 13 days on the INSTA and FB, so be sure to follow me there.
