10 Wearable fall/winter trends from Fashion Week 2015

With fall arriving, I share some of the wearable fall trends from the ramp.

1. Car wash pleats

For those who are new to this particular term. Car wash skirts/dresses are the skirts/dresses with multi slits that look like the scrubber found inside the car wash. It might not sound flattering but looks chic and tease at the same time. 

It was settled to be THE trend this fall when designers like Oscar de la Renta, Christian Dior, Tommy Hilfiger and Angelo Marani presented their take on the ramp. It can be easily dressed up or down with the choice of pairing.

How to get rid of those evil acne scars?

Hello gorgeous,

We all have experienced it and keep on experiencing it. No matter how hard we try to avoid it but it always pop out from nowhere. Acne is something that we all face. And what is more painful than the acne? The acne marks. It goes and it leaves its marks behind. 

I was having that bad phase when my face was breaking out like anything. I treated the break outs but then I had to fight with the marks. Acne marks can make any face look dull and unhealthy. Here are few ways how I fought with them. I had to get rid of them ASAP hence I tried my best to fight. I cannot give credit to one product or remedy because I tried them together as a team. Though it took me almost two weeks but I did conquer. So let’s get started with the warriors.

1.  Lemon juice: 

Lemon juice is known for its bleaching properties and it is a natural skin brightener. I used it in the evening after cleansing my face. I used to squeeze some fresh lemon

Premium skin cottage bath+scrub body bath in kiwi gold essence review

Hello Beautiful people,

I am one of those who believe in exfoliating not just the face but body too. I do it regularly without any fail and I can tell you that it does make a difference. What else you want when you get cleansing and scrubbing in one bottle.  Today’s review is dedicated to such a product.

The product that I am going to review today is a body bath + scrub named ‘Premium skin cottage bath + scrub body bath in kiwi gold essence’. The product also comes in other flavours and different sizes.

I came across this product when I was strolling along the aisles in health and glow (which I usually do as it just soothes my mind and soul when I look around at what all we have to pamper ourselves. Lucky we all!).

Let’s get started with the details now.

Price: INR 379 for 400ml. I got it from Health and Glow in Bangalore but you can also buy it online and in fact at a cheaper price after discount (you just have to be online at the right place (right site in this case) at the right time ;))

Ingredients: Aqua, sodium laureth sulphate, acrylates copolymer, cocamidopropyl  betaine (CAPB), glycerin, polyquaternium-39, coco-glucoside, glyceryl oleate, prunus armeniaca (apricot) seed powder, parfum, sodium chloride, sodium hydroxide, hydrogenated jojoba oil, actinidia chinensis (kiwi) fruit extract, benzophenone-4, tocopheryl acetate, methylchloroisothiazolinone, methylisothiazolinone, CI 19140, CI 42090.

Product description:  ‘Skin cottage body bath + scrub’ with natural apricot kernel and jojoba beads cleanses and helps remove dead skin cells. Formulated with fruit extract and scented with kiwi gold fragrance moisturises to keep skin smooth, leaving a feeling of refreshing sensation.

Packaging: The product comes in a transparent bottle with a maroon cap which is very easy to use in shower.

Texture:  It has the texture and consistency of a shower gel with granules of apricot and jojoba beads to exfoliate.

Shelf life: 3 years.

Direction to apply: We all know how to use a body wash or scrub but still it says ‘pour onto palm or wet towel/sponge, and apply onto body. Wash and rinse off.’

My experience:

I use this bath + scrub on alternate days to cleanse and scrub my body but I am sure it can be used daily as it is not at all harsh but yet doesn’t compromise with the exfoliation.
