Finally bought Alpha H Liquid Gold

"Greater the obstacle greater the glory in overcoming it"

Hello my shinning stars

I am so excited to write this post. I have been watching videos after videos, reading blogs after blogs and reviews after reviews for more than 4 months now. And finally I did it I bought the LIQUID GOLD. Yay to me. I have been confused whether to buy it or not. I have seen many beauty gurus rave about this product and I wanted to try it. 

So what is Alpha H Liquid gold, its a  skin resurfacing treatment which uses low pH to diminish wrinkles, pigmentation and sun damage. It has glycolic acid which acts as a overnight facial which helps in brightening and revitalizes the skin. That mean dead skin layer is removed paving way to new layer of skin cells which gives a brighter skin and less wrinkles. 

Alpha H brand is an Australian brand (Amen to that) which have their own line of skincare using the glycolic acid. They have a set of skin care routine and is quite popular. 

The ingredients in the product:

Glycolic acid which exfoliates and brightens

Licorice extract helps to soothe and brighten dark spot and pigmentation.

Silk protein improves skin clarity and radiance.

How to use:

I use only few drops of liquid gold on cotton pad or ball and then apply it all over the face avoiding eye area. I even apply the left over onto my neck. It says only to use alternate days and not apply any cream over that. I use my eye cream because I dont apply the liquid gold near my eyes and I have very dry skin. 

 At first I had a little tingle sensation like when you apply lemon juice on the face. Don't worry its bearable and it diminishes after a while. You have to see the look in your face the next morning. My face glows and I stare into the mirror reaping my overnight facial results. My hubby did not see any changes no surprises there :) I am kidding. He compliments me all the time. Back to topic I have been using it for a month now. I am in love with it. My scars are getting lighter and my face is getting brighter. I can see dramatic change in my skin its feels so soft and glows from  inside. Will recommend this product to everyone who has pigmentation, acne scars and sun damaged skin. Should try it. 

I bought it from Absoluteskin website there are many online portals to buy it. I found that absolute skin website had the best offer. This product is a bit expensive. The liquid gold comes in 100ml and 200 ml.I bought 2 bottles of 100ml Liquid gold for 47AUD which was on sale. I made a profit by buying 2 bottles for the price of one. Will be doing a review with photos to compare the changes. 

Cheers

DIY LIP CREAM

“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”                                                                                 - Henry Stanley Haskin

Hi lovelies

Hope you all are doing great. This post is going to be DIY project on making your own lip cream. I know that everyone has something in their makeup collection which you don't use or looks bad on you or was a impulse buy. If you think you cannot rock that lip stick or lip gloss its time to make your own color by just following simple steps. Just go through your collection and get the lip products you don't like or use. 

Lets get started

Things needed

Lipstick (unused ones, colors you don't like or colors you don't wear)

Vaseline

candle

Spoon

lighter

mixing stick or fork

Method:

1. Empty the lip gloss or lipstick in the spoon.
2. Light the candle and place the spoon on the flame.
3. Just mix different colors to make your own custom made color by adding different colors little by little.
4. Add Vaseline to make it creamy and helps in mixing colors.
5. Just swatch the mixture to see the final color add different colors till you get the desired color.
6.  Once you reach the color just pour it back into the empty container or emptied lip gloss tube.
7. Just leave the tube for cooling and wait till it sets.
8. Now your own custom made color lip cream is finished.

I had BYS lip gloss in color its a bling thing which was too pale for my skintone. I could not pair it any other lipstick. So I used it and added my Maybelline Lipstick in mauve along with lip pigment which I have mentioned in my previous post. Check it out.

I got a perfect color which suits me and I am loving it. I did another lip cream with maybelline lip stick and lip gloss in nude. It came out as pinkish gloss which lasts longer like a lip cream.

                                   

Original BYS lip gloss. 

Lip cream after mixing the lip products I used the same tube for usage. Below are the swatch on hand and lip.

 

Maybelline lip gloss with pink matte lip stick. 

Hope you all enjoyed and will make use of this to use your lip products. Dont waste the products and the money.

Cheers

Clinique all about eyes cream review - good or bad

" Everything has beauty but not everyone sees it"

                                                          -Confucius

Hello my lovelies

If you have read my previous posts you would have known that I was using Clinique all about eyes rich eye cream. I started developing wrinkles under and corners of my eyes and dark circle. I started using it by May and I told I will do a review on it. Hence the review.

About the cream it is just like butter and is so moisturizing. I apply it in morning and night. My skin feels soft and hydrated in the morning. The cream have reduced my darkness around my eyes and reduced puffiness. The wrinkles were deep before but now its getting better. I still have wrinkles around my eyes but not deep. I still have fine lines in the corner of my eyes no improvement in that. 

It has been keeping my under eye area moisturized. I know everyone loves this but it did not do wonders for me. For the price 58AUD I thought it should do more things than just moisturizing. I am just disappointed with the results. I have half of the bottle left. So I am going to finish it and then will post the update about the results. 

                      

The top pic was taken on June and the bottom one in August. As you can see just a fine reduction the depth of the wrinkles and darkness around the eye has reduced. I took pics to compare. Frankly till now I wasn't amazed with the results. Lets see if any changes occur.

Its time for ebay haul

       " A person who follows a crowd will never be followed by a crowd"

Hello my stars

How was your weekend? Hope you all had a blast. I spent all my weekend taking rest and relaxing myself.

This post is a ebay haul. I have ordered it last June and I received it last week. All the item were free shipping so it takes a long tome to reach me. I mostly buy products such as jewels, household items or good deal products from ebay. I have never bought a handbag from ebay. I have been wanting to buy this particular  bag and I have done quite a lot of research on it. I checked youtube videos for handbag hauls and read blog post. So finally I made my mind to buy one bag and see how it works out. I was having one bag in my mind and while browsing through the ebay I came across the product which had the auction  I bid and I won the handbag for 7AUD with free shipping.

Korean Handbag large

This hand bag was made of PU leather and had nice quality cloth inside the bag. The size of the bag is large and can accommodate lot of stuff. There are 2 small pouches where you can put your mobile or cards there. There is also a small zipper compartment for important stuff. The bag comes with a attached coin purse. I love this feature because I used to put my keys in the bag and will be struggling to get my keys out when I need them in urgent. Now I am using this coin purse to keep my keys. So when I need them I can just reach the attached coin purse and grab the keys. 

Statement necklaces

I bought 2 necklaces from ebay as well. These pieces are so inexpensive and looks great. The necklace are not too big and its of good quality. I was looking for a green color necklace just to give a pop of color to my dress. Its the trend now to accessories with colors and give a  pop of color to make other basic colors work. When you feel that you are not in the mood for dressing up just wear a statement neck piece and it will give you a dressed up look. This is a nice trick to make your old clothes look good because the attention goes to the necklace. I will put different looks using these great pieces in my coming posts. The price of these 3AUD each with free shipping. 

Take care

Cheers:)

Shades of Pink my favoriates

"Beware of little expenses because a small hole can sink the ship"

Greetings from down under

Hope you all are doing good.I was just arranging my makeup area I found that all my lipstick are pink shaded. I don't have any other range. Either I have pink base in everything. I also had same colors with a small difference in their color. Whenever I wear new lipstick I would ask my husband how does it look? He did not find any difference in the shade and will tell its the usual color you wear all the time. I would be so pissed and thought humm boys!!. But when I came to know while cleaning I had very similar colors of lipstick. 

               

All the lipstick are my favorite ones and I love wearing them. Since I don't like doing experiments with new color and wanted to be in my comfort zone. Now I am going to try other colors. So below are my pink shades of lipstick which will be perfect for Indian skin tone or tan skin tone.

Maybelline color sensational lipstick 

Essence lipstick 

Lakme lipstick 

 Lacura mineral lipstick

                                       

Cheers
