Boots Pharmacy Strawberry and Yougurt Intensive Hair Treatment Review

Hello Everyone,


Fall is here and it brings frizz hair and the horrors of hair fall. Today I'm going to talk about this amazing "Strawberry & Yogurt Intensive Hair treatment" by Boots pharmacy, which locks frizz, hair fall and make hair super soft and smooth. Scroll down to read my experience about it.


My Experience:

My Hair are thick, frizzy and wavy and its quiet difficult for me to manage them but when I saw this product at EBCO store I thought to try it out. After applying this product on my hair I must say I'm in love with it. The rich & creamy formula of this makes my hair super soft and silky with less frizz. I apply this hair treatment after every shampoo and leave it for 5 minutes and than rinse it with water, and guess what I see my hair were super smooth with less frizz yayyyy... :D

Well If your hair are frizzy, thick and rough like mine than try this product out I promise you wont regret.

It has a sweet strawberries and yogurt scent in it which every girl definitely love. It is great for humid weather like we have in Karachi and a best option for fall time because I don't want my hair look like broom :P

The 600ml bottle come with a very reasonable price tag. The only down side of this hair treatment is its packaging, I think it would be easier if it comes in a squeeze tube packaging or in a pump. 



 
Application:
After shampoo take a generous amount of this hair treatment and apply this on your hairs and after 5 minutes rinse it with water.



Thumbs Up:
  • Makes hair soft and silky
  • Less frizz
  • Economical
  • less hair fall
  • Rich formula

Thumbs Down:
  • Don't like its packaging


Quantity:
600ml

My Rating:
4.5/5


Texture:
Rich and creamy


Price:
PKr590


Availability:
Karachi: Ebco & Park Towers
International: Boots Pharmacy


Would I Repurchase It?

Makeup Revolution Salavation Velvet Lip Lacquer's Review+Swatches

Hello Everyone,

Today I'm going to review the most raved product now a days, the "Makeup Revolution's Salvation Velvet Lip Lacquers".  There are many mix reviews about these so lets try to see if its worth the hype or not ? It comes in a hard sleek acyclic lip gloss tube which looks very cute and classy.



My Experience:
These gorgeous lacquers comes in a huge color range and I had a chance to get three of them so for that I selected "what I believe", Keep Flying for you" and last but not the least "keep crying for you".

These Velvet lacquers are super opaque and pigmented. They are velvet lacquers so they have matte finish in it. These are not glossy or transparent like the other lacquers are, these are really vibrant and pigmented and when you apply it takes 45 seconds to dry so don't close your lips until it dries completely. It comes with a doe- foot wand which makes application easy. It lasts for  2 to 3 hours. But after few hours it started fading from the middle of my lips and it dries out like bubblegum. When I want to remove it looks like I'm removing dried bubble gum particles from my lips, which is understandable because these are velvet lacquers :(

It doesn't mean that the weirdness turns me down, I'm going to keep these beautiful lacquers in my life. They look super sexy on me and I can wear these on any occasion including daily use.

I'm really loving its pigmentation and how it looks on me :D



Application:
Apply an even coat on your lips and make sure you don't close your lips until it completely dries otherwise it will spread.


Swatches:



Thumbs Up:
  • Love its chic packaging
  • Economical
  • Pigmented
  • Lasts for 2 to 3 hours


Thumbs Down:
  • Dries out like a bubble gum
  • After few hours it starts fading from the middle

Quantity:
2ml e

Texture:

Hello Everyone,

Today I'm reviewing Bh cosmetics 2nd Edition 120 eyeshadow colors palette . It was in my wish list since 2012 but I didn't find this palette in Qatar and Finlay after 2 years I got it from www.beautyarena.pk.

This fits all occasions, and it can help you wear very subtle everyday makeup or a party makeup. These shadows lasts long and doesn't feel powdery at all which is a plus point. If you love to play with colors than you are going to love this palette as well.





Application:
If you want to make your eyeshadow lasts longer than put a lil amount of primer first on your lids before application.


Swatches:

                                                              These swatches are without any primer
