What the company claims :-

Info Card

Likes :-

- Moisturizing enough

- Makes complexion bright and luminous

- Lightens the blemishes and acne and burn marks

- Smell is very mild

- Less than  pea-sized amount is needed for whole face

- Has SPF-15

Dislikes :-

- Very expensive

- Not enough moisturizing for dry skin

                                                           OVERALL VERDICT

It is an amazing product from phytomer. I applied this cream on my chicken pox marks, as you all know that chicken pox marks are so stubborn that they say for years but this cream actually made my pox marks relatively light and for applying it on the affected area for 10 days my marks were absolutely gone and it also lightened my burn mark which was on my wrist. I have oily to combination skin so I didn't had any problem with the moisturizing factor but it can be drying for people with dry skin so they must apply a moisturizer before this for adequate moisturization. Less than  pea-sized amount is needed for applying it on whole face which is just so wonderful as you don't have to apply a lot of cream on your face which is a good part of it. It also has SPF-15 as written on the ingo card and on tube but I can't say exactly that how much it is going to protect you from sunrays can't be sure about it because I haven't steppe outside without a good quality sunblock so can't tell about it's sun protecting factor.

Anyways, a really very nice and lovely product from Phytomer.

RECOMMENDATION : Yes, i will recommend it to everyone.

Will I repurchase it again? :- UndoubtedlyYes, I would love to purchase it again and a bigger size cream tub :P

RATING : 5/5

6 NATURAL BEAUTY TIPS WHILE TRAVELLING

Hello Everyone!
Today, I am posting about BEAUTY TIPS WHILE TRAVELLING. As, we all know that we always try to put at least things with us . The compromise starts with our own things. The thing which we leave first is the make-up kit. So, what should we do to retain our beauty while travelling ? Given below are the valuable tips through which we can retain our beauty.

i) Tissue Paper :- Tissue papers are easily available in any hotel. You can use tissue paper to remove your make-up or if you are travelling with your baby than you can use baby wipes for removing all the dirt or any kind of make-up from your face. This will reduce the space of cleanser and you can have clean and beautiful skin anywhere.

ii) Tomato Ketchup :- For instantly glowing skin, just mix 1 glass of warm water with 4 tsp of tomato ketchup and wash you face with it. Your face will instantly have a glowing appearance.

iii) Coco Powder :- While travelling, if you have got a pouch or a sachet of coco powder than don't leave it, collect extra sachets of coco and milk powder and mix it with sugar and water to make an outstanding face pack. And this face pack is be loaded with anti-oxidants and it returns your natural moisture of face making it soft,supple and smooth.

iv) Ice :- For increasing the beauty of your eyes, you can use ice which is easily available in any hotel. Just crush a little bit of ice and put it into a handkerchief and fold it and than put it on your eyes and keep it for 1 minute each alternatively and do it for 5 minutes. Apply vaseline or eye cream on your eyes.

v) Banana :- Banana is a multi-functional fruit which can be used for many things like conditioning hair or as a face mask and one more benefit of this fruit is that it is available everywhere. You can apply mashed banan on your face and hair for 15 minutes. Don't let it sit for more than 15 minutes because it can be sticky and you might have problem to remove it so just apply it for 15 minutes and wash it with warm water. Your face and hair will regain it's lost beauty.

vi) Vaseline :- If you have to tick by whole night in train, flight or bus travelling than before going to sleep apply a hand full of vaseline or a good quality moisturizer on your face by doing this your face will be 10 times more glowing in the morning and you will look extremely beautiful.

RECIPE OF PUNJABI SAMOSA

Hello everyone!
today, I am posting the recipe of Punjabi Samosa which is an Indian dish. Samosa is available everywhere in India but each and every state has it's own unique taste. These Punjabi Samosas are little bit tangy in taste due to the dry mango powder ( aamchur) , but if you want it salty and don,t want it to be tangy than you can exclude the dry mango powder.

SAMOSAS

prep. time :- 15 minutes

cooking time :- 30 minutes

Servings :- makes 12-13 samosas

Ingredients :-

FOR COVERING

1 cup refined flour (maida)

1/2 tsp carom seeds (ajwain)

Salt to taste

2 tsp refined oil

FOR STUFFING

4-5 boiled medium potatoes

1/2 cup boiled green peas

1 tsp refined oil or mustard oil

1 tsp cumin seeds

1 inch piece chopped ginger

3-4 chopped green chillies

1 tsp red chilli powder

1 tsp dry mango powder (aamchur)

1 tsp garam masala

salt to taste

2 tsp fresh coriander leaves chopped

3 tsp chopped carrots ( optional )

2 tsp fried peanuts (optional)

Preparation :-

Mix refined flour, salt,oil and carom seeds together and mix it well, and than add water ( a little at a time) and make a stiff dough, cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.

Dough

For the filling :- 

i) Mash all the potatoes and keep it aside

ii) Heat oil in a kadhai and put chopped ginger, cumin seeds and stir for 1 to 2 minutes ,than add green chillies, red chilli powder, garam masala, and dry mango powder and stir for a minute or two. 

iii) Than add green peas into it and chopped carrots stir it for 2 minutes and than add the mashed potatoes and mix it well , after adding potatoes add fried peanuts and freshly chopped coriander leaves and put it off from the heat and keep it aside.

Filling

Method :-

i) Divide the dough into equal sized balls and keep aside.

ii) Take a ball (keep the other balls covered with damp cloth to prevent drying) and roll it out very thinly in an oval or round shape.Do not bother that it has to be perfect or so just roll it and cut into half.

iii) Keep a small bowl of water for sticking. Wet the straight side lightly with water and fold it as shown below. The straight side should overlap forming a cone shape.

                                       

iv) now we have got the cone ,( picture is below),now add 2 tsp of the filling in the cone.

v) Now wet the circumference of the cone with water lightly for sticking.

vi) Stick together and fold it. Press it and shape gently, now you get beautiful triangular shaped samosa with filling inside.Repeat the same process for the rest of the dough.

vii) Now heat sufficient oil in a kadhai or pan for deep frying. To check the oil, drop a small piece of dough into the oil, if it rises to the surface immediately than the oil is hot enough for dry frying.

viii) Now you must reduce the flame to medium and maintain the same oil temperature throughout frying. Drop 2-3 samosas into the oil gently and fry both sides until golden brown.

ix) Serve hot and crisp samosa with ketchup or green chutney.

Today, I am reviewing the shade Cranberry from Elle 18 color burst lipsticks. As we all know that elle 18 has launched their new range of cosmetics. So , I have purchased a kajal , eyeliner and a lipstick from their new range, reviews of kajal and eyeliner are coming soon.

What the company claims  :-

Add sensational color to your lips with elle 18 color burst lip tint. Erupting with intense shine, this lip color lets you blow your style statement to the extreme.

- Value for money 

- Gives a deep tint in one swipe

- Love this shade

- Stays for a 1 to 2 hours

- Ingredient list is not mentioned

                                                 OVERALL VERDICT

This is a nice product from elle 18 and one thing which I love about it is it's smell. It smells lovely and you can also see the cocoa butter in the middle which moisturizes your lips as cocoa butter is a natural moisturizer. I really like this shade as it has a kind of pinkish and semi metallic tone. I can't say that it's color is as same as the cranberry fruit but when you wear it, it gives a very nice pinkish coverage to the lips which I likes and it looks very natural too and it is so so affordable!b like it comes in just Rs. 100 for 4.3 ml . I mean like Rs. 100 for 4.3 ml lipstick from such brand definitely deserves a buy. 

The things which I really didn't liked were that it stays only for 1 to 2 hours or 2 to 3 hours hardly but according to the price it's fine. It feels a little bit heavy on the lips too you will have a feeling that you are wearing something on lips and ingredient list is also not mentioned which is a little bit scary for me because I am using a product without knowing it's ingredients. Anyways, according to the price it is a very nice product.

RECOMMENDATION :- Yes, this lipstick is worth a buy.

Will I repurchase it again? :- Maybe Yes, because I would like to try other shades from this range.

RATING :- 3.5/5

So, this was my review on Elle 18 color burst lipstick , for more upcoming reviews, STAY CONNECTED.
