My Wish List -Putting it out there in the universe

For the past couple of weeks I have been fortunate enough to see quite a few beauty and beauty related products that I will evenutally get or have already received. I thought it would be great to do a top 10 list of beauty products I would love to own.

What do u give someone who has everything?

Something to keep it all in

I recently went to The Beauty Bar in Lokhandwala and fell in love with this beauty. I did a detailed blog post about my experience at their Doll Me up Class
This vanity is called the Leggy Vain Pro Makeup Station with Legs goes for approx 16,500/-


On average women and MUA tend to use 20% of shadows from any particular pallete and not surprisingly the colours used the most are your natural warm colours along with highlighters. I love this product because all the colours are very pigmented, have great staying power and all the colours are ones id wanna use and they also have additional colors to create unique smokey eyes.. I definitely want this product.

The Urban Decay Naked Palette is for about 4500/- and you can get it at The Beauty Bar.


Since im overweight and my heart shaped face is round due to the poundage, i have started contouring my face. However this product is perfect for contouring for most skin tones and I defintiely will go out and pick it up

The MAC Blunt Blush is for about 1150/- at the MAC store.

The one eyeshadow palette that is modern and classic at the same time.

Makeup Forever Flash Palette cost around 5000/-  I love the yellow and the pink next to it. It applies like grease paint, very pigmented.


What is an artist without his tools?
I own quite a few mac brushes and hope to own all these very very soon

Mac professional makeup brushes start at around 2000/- 
You do have cheaper brands with decent brushes, however with MAC the brushes are long lasting and very high quality bristles which ultimately shows in you makeup finish.


No matter how well you can apply your makeup, the best tool anyone can have is good skin. This next skin care product is one i cant to incorporate into my weekly skin routine.

A good Dermabrasion kit can cost anywhere between 5000 to 1000 rupees. However salon treatments are pretty expensive so buying a kit makes sense in the long run.


If you have this combo  5 set of 4, youre literally set for life. It has all the colours you could ever imagine and all the textures possible in an eyeshadow. They are pigmented and last very long especially if you apply an eye primer. I would love to own

Coastal Scents Set of 4 Palettes for $69.95 on their website. Thats around 3700 rs. I think they are worth every penny.
The palettes are
1 Ultra Shimmer Palette ($19.95)
1 Metal Mania Palette ($24.95)
1 Warm Palette ($24.95)
1 88 Original Palette ($18.95)


This next product makes any woman feel lush and youthful and seductive. And you only have to clip them on.

Specifically the ones from luxyhair.com. They have amazing quality and for 160gms its a $140 with free shipping. I think its a deal and plan to get them at the end of the year.


I want to graduate to using this next beauty product to achieve the flawless look

The ones im told are the best airbrush make kits come from Dinair. And they have an amazing range of different colors.

And last but not least the ultimate in beauty for any person...their SMILE!

The Crest 3D White Strips apparently work wonders. And gives you professional quality whitening. However it is a bit costly. Its about $500 in the US. Pretty freaking expensive.
I hope you like this list and please comment below with the products you desire.

XOXO

This is my wish list and no brand has sponsored this post. This is purely what I wish to write about.

Girl meets Miami! Megha Grover en route to Miami

It took me quite a while to sit down and write this post. Not cause I was lazy or didnt know what I wanted to say. But because I was immersed in the preparation in a milestone for my best friend.
Now that the preparation is over and the euphoric feeling has given me goose bumps I now feel its a perfect time to write this post.

I remember in 2008 sitting at my desk with my best friend Namrata behind me and another BFF Ian sitting by my side. We were all intensely looking at our computer screens and typing profusely in unison.
The 1/4 of our little world walked in, looking confused and all typing stopped. I know nowthat, that conversation changed our lives for the better. We said echoing each others thoughts " Don't think about it too much, now that you have realised your dreams and worked hard towards it, quit! We are there to support you." We said that scared ourselves wondering if this was the right advice. It was! She ofcourse spoke to other people and the passion in her eyes made everyone say the same thing. Go after your dreams.

Megha Grover our BFF is on her way to take part in The International Miami Beach Fashion Week. The only woman designer to do so in history. It may have taken some time, it definitely took a lot of hardwork, stress and sweat on Megha's part but she has taken herself to such heights and I can't wait for her to get the success she deserves.

Megha's clothing line for the Miami Beach Fashion Week is amazing. I dont say this because she is my best friend, however i remember thinking when I saw the garments during her catalog photoshoot OH MY GOD! she is soooo talented. I will share the pictures of the clothing line once her shwocase in Miami is over. Which is on the 22nd of March, at the South Beach convention Center at 21:30 Miami time.

I dont want to get into what all she has had to go through to get where she is and how much harder she might have to work to get where she wants to be. I want to savor her success. I want to constantly recall the shrieks of joy i heard when she got her visa.

I write here on behalf of all the people who love her. To tell her we're behind you. We love you! And you have always made us proud. And now its tiem for the rest of the world to know what we already did.
