Forever New A/W 14 Collection // Plus a New Store in Kolkata

Sep 23, 2014


Forever New opened their third store at Kolkata and no points for guessing, it opened at Quest Mall. The complete A/W 14 collection is up for sale there. There are some beautiful dresses in solid colors, nice knits and chic bags. The jewelry collection is also very nice and I was smitten by the watches. I was surprised to know that the watches were in the RS 1600 to 2200 range which is quite affordable.

La Roche Posay Effaclar Astringent VS Vichy Normaderm Purifying Pore Tightening Lotion

Sep 20, 2014

La Roche Posay Effaclar Astringent Lotion Micro Exfoliante VS Vichy Normaderm Purifying Pore Tightening lotion

Usually, whenever I buy any toner or astringent they either sting too much to use comfortably or  too gentle to make any impact on my skin because which I do not use them (Last month, a big bottle of Kiehl's Ultra Facial Toner got expired and more than half of the product is still left).  

Lucky, Vichy Normaderm Purifying Pore Tightening Lotion and La Roche Posay Effaclar Astringent Lotion worked for my skin are my most loved toners. I really wanted to do this post from the first day I discovered Vichy but I wanted to use it for a month before saying anything. 

So, here it is...after finishing a bottle of La Roche Posay Effaclar Astringent Lotion and a month's use of Vichy Normaderm Purifying Pore Tightening Lotion.

KAMA Ayurveda Opens First Store in Kolkata

Sep 18, 2014


I had a 'Tune-Mari-Entrieyan-Dil-Mein-Baje-Gantiya' moment today.

Kama Ayurveda - one of the brands in India which is organic, pure and based on real Ayurveda and yet affordable compared to the quality is now in my city - Kolkata. So far, they only have stores in Delhi and they do sell online. I have always wanted to try products from the brand and now my wish has come true.

I simply cannot keep calm.
