SLS FREE Shampoo Bar - SAnd for Soapaholics Make Merry Review || Perfect for Travel

May 28, 2015

 SAnd for Soapaholics Make Merry SLS Free Solid Shampoo Review

While travelling, have your shampoo ever spilled on your cloths?

A little bit squeezed out and destroyed that cute top that you planned to wear on the beach? 

I always worry about these things while travelling. Hence, I carry liquids (shower gels, shampoos, etc) in tiny bottles. But, it can be tiring at times. While there are trial sizes for shower gels and bath products, there are hardly any for shampoos. There are shampoo sachets in market but none for SLS free shampoos. Then, I discovered this SLS free solid shampoo – SAnd for Soapaholics Make Merry.

I am not travelling without this anymore!

First Dabble with Forest Essentials That Led to HUGE HAUL

May 27, 2015

Forest Essentials Haul

Forest Essentials opened their new store in Kolkata last month. They invited me to visit the store but I could not as I am keeping real busy these days. I mean, I am not even blogging or posting on Instagram! Anyhow, I managed to visit the store last week just to check it out. Frankly speaking, I had my doubts about the brand. The products are priced high, they deny to give samples and the ingredients list is not complete. All that changed when I went to the Kolkata store. I found that the 
  • price is quite justified for the ingredients list
  • most products have a travel size option
  • the SA provided me samples of products that I wanted to try like the Soundarya Serum and others
  • the ingredients list is complete. I didn't see Base QS for anything that interested me
[EDIT - I realised later that though they removed Base QS, most ingredients now say 'Key Ingredients' instead of Íngredients. So, they are still hiding from us!]

All in all, I was so delighted with what I got from my first visit that I re-visited the shop and did a major haul. Most for my wedding trousseau (the lame excuse that I am using these days for my shopaholic tendencies! LOL).

All Good Scents Tender EDT Review

When I first sniffed this All Good Scents Tender, I thought that I found the possible dupe of one of my favorite designer perfume. When I compared the notes of this with my favorite designer perfume, then I could see that it was almost the same!
