It's Pallavi here! Even though winter has just arrived, my dry skin has began to take a toll on me. I am always in search of rich creams that will take care of my dryness woes. Rich winter creams are extremely sticky and end up making you look like an oil field. So, I mostly opt for winter creams for night time and for day time I just stick to light but moisturizing face creams.

Hello Chicsters!

A good lip care routine is necessary not only in winter but even during the rest of the year. I make it a point that my night care regime definitely consists of some lip moisturizer everyday along with lip scrubs once or twice a week. Recently, I came across an online store called SkinCafe that offers some of the finest quality, organic handcrafted lip care products and being an organic beauty products lover I was extremely glad to have come across this brand.

Recently, I stumbled upon a fashion and beauty centric site known as Dresslink about which I knew I had to share with you lovelies.

Gone are those days when women would check out one brand to suffice their beauty needs. In fact, it has been one remarkable journey to witness the Indian beauty market revolution. Several beauty products have been launched and there are still many new products paving their way into the Indian beauty market. However there’s also a major concern i.e. the shooting prices. Drugstore brands are tempting us by launching new releases every now and then but needless to say, they also put a major dent in our pocket. In this post, I am going to share those very products with you which have worked extremely well for me.

So today's post is yet again for all my tech-savvy Chicsters who love to look fashionable by having technology on their side. How do you know if your smartphone is smart enough? Camera? Processor? Well for me a smartphone isn't smart enough until it has stunning looks that you can flaunt around town and one such beauty is the LeEco Le 1s - a 2nd generation smartphone that is sleek, stylish and yet is budget friendly.

Within the last few month's LeEco formerly known as LeTV has become a rising sensation all over India.

Excluding India, LeEco has gained popularity worldwide with them introducing 4 new smartphones:  Le Max, Le Max Pro, Le 1s and Le 1 Pro at Mobile World Congress. LeEco has also won the Most Innovative Company Award at MWC 2016 by Alphr.com Impressive right? Keep reading for more information...

I have been going through a tough time with my skin the past few months because of which I wasn't feeling so confident about myself. Even the acne treatment creams that I was using had started to dry my skin out, it was then that I resorted to the all natural Ayurveda products. Time and again Kama Ayurveda products have turned out to be winners for me and I was positive that they would help me out this time as well. One such product that not only helped me control breakouts but also helped me reduce my acne scars was the Kama Ayurveda Nimrah anti acne face pack.

Sephora is Finally Here! After being loved by beauty obsessors in Delhi and Pune, Sephora finally launched a store in Mumbai on the 30th of January  (Palladium Mall, High Street Pheonix). I was uber excited to visit the store and went on the same day it launched (bad idea I know!). Honestly, I am not even exaggerating when I say that I literally had to wait for 2 hours in queue before I could get in. The excitement of checking out the first Sephora store and waiting in the queue gave me a déjà vu of my first Boxing day sale.

So you remember my last The Body Shop post featuring Virgin Mojito Body Butter where I had promised you that there will be some more reviews coming your way soon so here I am. Today I will be reviewing for you one of the best cleansing balms I have tested so far. I had heard a lot about this product and couldn't wait to try it when The Body Shop finally launched this product in India. Also, I was glad that I would have to spend way less than if I would have gone for the Clinique cleansing balm or the Emma Hardie one. Even though I did not need a makeup cleanser I went ahead and got it as a backup. It wasn't until recently that I started using it and boy am I super happy with this product. Keep reading on to know what is it about this product that has got me all head over heels for it...
