My experience with the product-
. The lipstick is soft, smooth and creamy, it glides on very easily.
Despite its matte finish, it feels moisturizing and softening on the lips .It is a very natural finish, neither too matte, nor too creamy.
Rose Quartz is pretty berry pink shade. It adds glow to the face.

Pros-
Soft and cremy texture , easy to apply.
Nice pigmentation
Reasonable.
Good staying power.
Would suit most Indian skin tones.
Easily available both online and offline
Attractive packaging.

Cons-
The mild fruity smell, but that goes off after a while.

Do I recommend this product?
Oh yes definitely, especially in winters when you want a instant glow on your face !Also this would suit most Indian skin tones.

Rating- 5/5

Outfit: Blazer and Scarf


They say you live your life your once ,then why not enjoy joy every moment of it ! If their is any phase of life that I want to relive then that would be childhood, those were the best days of my life !! I never had to worry  about anything , mom took care of everything :) Taking swings was the best childhood memory , I still remember waiting for the clock to tick 5pm and I go out meet my buddies and take swings. Till today when I  see swings I look around and grab a chance to relive my old days.Today I met a old friend and we met for lunch , grabbed chole bhature , the ideal punjabi punch if you ask me ...heheheheee.... Their are certain dishes which I can have at any hour , one of them is this !

Post lunch we decided to take a walk at the park and when I saw the swings I just could not resist !!

Outfit: Horse print dress with blazer

I generally love teaming my dresses my dresses with blazers and stockings in winters. I think this is the best way to utilize the dresses in winters ! In a city like Delhi we experience extreme climates...It going to get very cold here in Delhi soon , so before that happens I grabbed the opportunity to wear my dress with blazer.
Also its the first time I did complete smoky eyes , I think its the makeup that inspired me to wear this dress.
