Loving all the products. Didn’t try the body butter as yet but tested it in the The Body Shop store.Smelled really nice and lasted long.Even the soft effect of the body butter stayed till i washed my hands after

coming home.So loving it too. A big thanks to you and all my IMBB friends. :)

Now I am feeling such a fool that I have been talking to you through IMBB almost every single day for so long and never bothered to ask for your number. Infact HD has been for long and I took her number from MAC Queen. Need to learn networking skills from her.Feeling such a dumbo. :rotfl: :silly: :silly:

Hehehee Nids..you are so happy :-D Your small haul looks nice..I think the TBS Shea body butter is very good especially for dry skins and in winter.

Awesome haul.. I get more confidence while buying things that have been reviewed here. I’ve not regretted a single product that I’ve purchased based on IMBB’s reco..

Nids, wat is your say on the lakme eye artist?i mean is it long lasting?am desperately looking out for a liquid liner which is long lasting with a felt tip.

Reply

Nids August 9, 2010 at 7:00 pm

its really gud.. i tooo tried it for the 1st time.. always relied on liquid eyeliners..or pencil ones
but the ‘eye artist’ is really cool.. :-)
is nt messy at all in application coz dries quickly.. compared to the liquid ones..
n stays for long(mine easily 4 hrs) without fading.. then i washed my face..
it can b used easily to apply a thick or thin liner depending on ur choice.. i did a thick one on my eyes after quite a long time using the eye artist othrwise wid liquid ones , i prefer a thin lash line coz sumtimes i end up getting all messy.. :-|
if u r using a felt tip for the 1st time then u may find the tip a lil hard coz v r used to liquid brushes.. bt after 1/2 tries, u’ll luv it.. :-))

Very sensible haul…. Nids…

I have never been able to wear Mauve and Plums… Make me look washed out… Review the Maybelline Satin one no….

Reply

Nids August 9, 2010 at 7:12 pm

hi mrunmayee.. the satin plum is a maroon shade actually.. quite pigmented..just 2 coats give the shade which is on my hand.. its actually 220/-(i got it on 15% disc)
i luv wearing maroons n reds.. esp on sum parties.. goes well wid my sarees n suits..wear it wid a gloss n the luk is too coool… ;-)
this one is quite creamy.. its brittle too..as lipper is quite soft in feel..but lasts long till u dont eat it off alongwith the food… :-P
u r getting married soon, if i m rght then u may b planning to buy sum reds n maroons sarees or dress materials.. get such a shade,if nt in maybelline then whtever brand u prefer..suits all complexions… :-)
