If you have skin with acnes or blemishes, you must have heard of Tea Tree. While there are products which have Tea Tree but the concentration have to be high enough to make an impact. So, why not use pure Tea Tree essential oil? Because for most, it is not easy to take essential oil and mix it with a carrier oil in the perfect ratio to get the best result. So, The Body Shop did it for us in The Body Shop Tea Tree Anti-Imperfection Daily Solution.
What is an Anti-Imperfection Daily Solution? A pre-serum with organic Tea Tree Oil from Kenya in the right concentration which gentle enough for everyday use. It also contains other potent ingredients like Castor Oil, Salicylic Acid, Alfalfa Extract, and Aloe Vera.
A few days back, one of my colleagues wore this matte black nail polish to the office, and I could not stop staring. When was the time I wore black nail polish? Has it been years? Oh wait, it was in March when I borrowed it from a friend because I had to wear something on my nails and she only had black. But, isn’t black too Gothic for office? So, how is this looking so fresh? And then, I realized it was MATTE.
The matte nail polish craze has come and went away seasons ago, and black nail polish craze is a story from another age. Then, how is this pleasing me to no limits?
I cannot answer all that, but I had to try it and so, I placed my online of Colorbar Blackness (along with more matte nail paints and nail polishes which are yet to reach my place)

Himalaya Herbals Tan Removal Orange Peel Off Mask |
During my teens, I first saw the ad of a peel-off mask on TV. It was a revolutionary thought for me. The fact that one can pull off all the impurities from the skin and have a mask with contours of your face was mind boggling for me. Even now in my late 20s, I am equally intrigued to try new peel off masks. Unfortunately, there is just a handful of them in India. Bored of the available choices, once I tried to make a peel-off mask at home using gelatin - not one of the proud moments of my life. So, I was had to try the Himalaya Orange Peel Off Mask. A peel-off mask with orange and honey? I will be a fool to skip it.
Price: Rs 130 for 100g

Pantene asked us to try the new Pantene for hair fall control. In my life, work is stressful, and I survive on hotel food so, you know my situation. Hairfall happens all the time. I can see hair on my pillows when I wake up. I can see it in my washroom when I take a bath and even in my room as I just roam around. This gave me several embarrassing moments. Hair fall is not sexy. So, I said yes to the #14DaysChallenge
Origins is a reputed brand in skincare which is highly praised for its face masks. I never had access to them in India so, when I spot them at the Kuala Lumpur Airport, I had to pick them up. I tried them on my face there, and it felt good. I wanted to buy all of them. But, because of the price, I had to step back. I even called my friend, Rini, (who have used Origins masks) to know if they were worth it.
Her answer: “No.”
But, being a skincare addict I could not say no. After a lot of considerations and thoughts (I spend most of my time at the airport there. Shopped the rest in a matter of minutes), I picked this trio pack.
For thin, loose skin, there is really one method that significantly tightens the skin best - laser skin tightening. This procedure not only tightens, it also noticeably reduces wrinkles. You've heard of aesthetic lasers, but do you understand what is involved in the process?
How does a laser tighten skin?
By using a specific wavelength of light, a skin tightening laser can focus it's energy on an area to contract the skin to tighten it. That light-based energy also heats the deeper layer of skin to stimulate both elastin and collagen production to fill in thin skin pockets. This method is not considered surgical, though it does use a medical quality laser device.
While you may find cosmetic lasers for sale, know that they are only available for use by certified trained technicians and medical personal and not intended for the common consumer to use. They are safe in the hands of those who are trained to know what settings to use and what to avoid to keep from harming patients.

The Body Shop Pinita Colada Shower Gel, Scrub, and Body Butter Review |
The Body Shop is always able to keep me on a hook with their new collection. If Virgin Mojito wasn't interesting enough, then they have another cocktail for you - Pinita Colada. From the first day, I saw the update on their page; I started to wait for the India launch. I had to grab them, bring them home, and give my love to them :P

Last year, I got to try my first epilator. I was scared to start using it but thanks to all the people who encouraged me to do the same. It is was a basic model from Philips, and you can read the view of a beginner here – Things No One Told You About Epilators.
This year, I got to try a new swanky version of Philips Epilator BRE630/00.
If you have read the earlier post in which I discussed few points while buying a new epilator. This one rounds up all the features in itself.
