FOTD & Swatch: MAC Nehru eye shadow

I've had MAC Nehru eye shadow for a couple of weeks and it's been a staple for me :) That's saying a lot since I'm quite particular when it comes to eye shadows.

MAC Nehru eye shadow in the pot

This is a matte finish and although it looks like a regular black matte shadow, there is a blue-gray tinge to it that I love. If you love a smokey eye, I highly recommend checking out this shade

You can definitely build up the depth of colour with this one or use it lightly

Here is a quick swatch of the colour (one swipe)

Bollywood Actresses Without Make-Up

Bollywood actresses are known for their beauty and style. They are glorified in displays demi-goddesses who are blessed with essential beauty.But it is now time for a reality check, because actresses do not really seem like the perfect Dream Girls when they stripped off his makeup. Let's take a look at how various actors look without their usual dose of makeup.

Katrina Kaif

Katrina Kaif does not look very different without makeup. She is naturally blessed woman in the form of beauty and thus can easily survive without makeup. She looks gorgeous in its most basic and natural avatar.

Deepika Padukone

Sans makeup, Deepika looks like any other face in the crowd. There is a considerable grooming as Deepika manages to look amazing as she always seems to be.

Rani Mukherjee

Yes! The person you see in the picture is actually Rani Mukherjee. And she certainly looks awful without her makeup on. Our advice to her would be not to leave the house without makeup or she may end up losing the few films that she had in her hand.

Sonam

Bollywood's number one fashionista is not very attractive to look at the makeup when she comes out. In this picture, Sonam far from glam diva she is always.

Kareena Kapoor

Kareena Kapoor also looks incredibly beautiful, even without any trace of makeup. Assuming it due to her genes and a healthy lifestyle, who always makes sure she looks radiant and glowing.

Kajol

Kajol has always shocked us with his sense of style in the past, and she does the same thing by coming forward without proper care. No matter what the occasion, there can be no excuse for turning up to look like this in public.

Priyanka Chopra

The glamorous Piggy Chops is similar to that bad without makeup so she looks good with it. She seems like a completely different person from the beautiful star, as we all know.

Rakhi Sawant

Not that we consider Rakhi a Bollywood star, but the difference in her appearance with and without makeup is so surprising that we could not resist including her in the list. The transformation in her appearance, we have only one thing to say, miracles happen!

Review: Favourite lashes of all time Ardell 107

I've tried quite a number of lashes from MAC, Ardell, Elise and Mod lashes in the past year that I have been whole-heartedly addicted to them.Ardell, Elise & Mod really measure up in quality - they're not as good as MAC quality (you can feel it in the hair, the band, the movement of the lash if that makes sense) but it comes close for the price considering MAC lashes are three times the price of

That piece of....I mean, updated review of Eyecurl II

Remember this?! The Eyecurl II heated lash curler and how I was raving about it less than a month ago? I used it no more than 10-15 times and it has already died on meAt first I thought the battery had to be replaced since the red indicator light was soooo faint. After replacing the battery, the heat indicator turned from white to red which indicates it's heated and ready for use. Well, it wasn't

Review: Eyecurl II Heated Eyelash Curler

UPDATE: This model is such crap! It has completely died out on me within 10-15 uses.  So just beware! When it is working, it works well.....maybe I got a bad one off the assembly line but I'm hesitant to buy the same one againMy very cool cousin Sue Ann gave me my first heated eyelash curler when I visited her in Malaysia last month.The cap is missing from the package btw  Sue Ann said the

Review: MAC Blitz & Glitz Fluidline vs. Smashbox Jet Set Waterproof Eye Liner

Ever since I bought my 1st Smashbox Jet Set Waterproof Eye Liner, I was converted to cream eye liners.That was 4-5 years ago, before I bought any MAC products or heard of makeupalley. So I was sold on cream eye liner because it was the longest lasting type of eyeliner I've ever used, it was very pigmented & the smudge-able line I could create just looked better than the harsh line of my liquid

Review: DUO lash glue

For some products I really just don't understand the hype - like DUO lash glue which I purchased at MAC I bought it based on the recommendations of many makeup artists and youtube gurus.I'm down to the last 1/3 of the tube and I'll be on the hunt for another brand of lash glue.I find the consistency of the glue to sometimes be a bit too watery for my liking. I've resorted to gently shaking

MAC Morning After Nail Polish + Blue & White porcelain inspired konad manicure

When MAC's Alice + Olivia collection came out I picked up their Morning After Nail polish.This post is way over delayed since the links don't even work properly LOLThe nail polish is not much to look at alone (two coats with Poshe top coat to finish)BUT, it works really well as a Konad stamping colour.My manicure makes me think of blue and white porcelain. So that's what I'm calling it.This is

A bit of Hello Kitty & a F21 dress

When I was in Grove City, Pennsylvania early April I went into a store called Fuzziwig's Candy Factory. A small selection of Hello Kitty items were at the store window and I got a few things :) I got a clear water bottle. I like how the cap is attached to the bottle so I don't have to worry about dropping the cap when I uncap the bottle. And I got three key caps. You attach them onto the top

Gift from Jasmin & Friday Night Clubbing

My girlfriend Jasmin went to Thailand for a month back in March-April.It was so nice of her to think of me - she ended up buying me a handbagIf you're wondering, yes it is an imitation Gucci bag.

White eye liner to combat under eye circles

Do you use white liner on your waterline to brighten your eyes?I've tried that but it makes my eyes look smaller. I must be in the minority :\ Well here's another use for your white liner....I got this tip from my sister's August 2009 Shape issue. Draw little "x's" on the bags of your eyes. Then dot some concealer on top. Blend! Voila - a brighter eye :) I thought this might be helpful for you
