Hi y’all! I recently bought some stuff for my sister to gift her on Christmas. She stays in a hostel so this is going to be a surprise for her. Obviously I cannot stuff a stocking, so I’m sending her a care-package:)
After having patiently researched on IMBB I bought the following.
Christmas Stuffers for my sister from Maybelline and TBS
The Body Shop Bath Gloves
I bought The Body Shop Bath Gloves in pink. She is going on a trip soon so thought she could use some exfoliation after a long day. Plus, she is in Mumbai so with the pollution, humidity and everything, this is a must-have. You can read the detailed review HERE
Price: INR 245
The Body Shop Strawberry soap
This smells so heavenly even when it is in the packaging!
Price: INR 145
Maybelline Expert Wear Blush in Berry Sorbet
A light pink blush. Read the review here.
Price: INR 209
Maybelline Watershine Pure Lipstick in P22
These do not have names. I bought two of these lipsticks in P22 and B22. Read the reviews here.
Price: INR 230
Maybelline Lip Smooth Color & Care Balm in Mandarin
I have been using it for a couple of days now and I love it! It has SPF, colour, fragrance. Happy, happy heart! Move over Neutrogena! Read the review here.
Price: INR 99
Maybelline Define-A-Lash Waterproof Mascara
Maybelline has good offers going on so I got this for free with the rest of the stuff. I have used the normal one and I was satisfied with it. Want another opinion? Read this.
Price: INR 310
In addition, I’m throwing in the samples I got from L’Occitane for her! Hope you get some idea on what you could gift the women in your life especially when you are on a budget.
Happy Christmas Shopping! :)a

i am liking berry sorbet and the fact that its not very pigmented. i find even soft plum to be not ver pigmented. between the dream matte mousse blush “soft plum” and “berry sorbet” which of them has less shimmer? anyone who could tell? 😐
Hi Natasha. Berry Sorbet def has less shimmer! the shimmer in soft plum is annoying! worse-i’ve got 2 of those!

Wow Anuya!! all this stuff is so cool!! :yes: :yes: Me too got berry sorbet last week!! :yahoo: :yahoo:
aditi , is it as hsimmery as their dream mousse blushes? ?:)
No idea Natasha!! :(( :(( Im quite new to make up….this is my first ever blush!! 🙂 But i neither find it that shimmery nor as pigmented as the dream mousse.!!
But i’m only saying this based on the swatches of dream mousse that i have seen… 😐
