Chambor Eye Pencil+ Smudger (Quick review)

Price: INR 425
I actually bought this eye pencil by mistake. I had heard good things about the bourjois eye smudger eye pencil but got confused and bought the chamber one instead. But its sweet .


























Pros:
It is perfect to be used to line the upper lash line. Can last all day.
The smudger brush is nice, gives a nice soft look if eye liner is blended properly.
Can also be used to line the waterline.
Cons:
Is not as dark as Kajal on the waterline.
One of the caps was loose and kept on coming off, I finally lost it. The black one is a random cap I am using of some old eye pencil.
Will smudge if used on the water line or lower lash line.
Paisa Vasool: Yes
My Rating: 3.5/5
Would I buy again: No.. There are so many more eye pencils to try!!

Adidas Fruity Rhythm Eau de Toilette

This is a really summery,fruity,floral kind of fragrance and its quite different. Do check it out if you go to Adidas outlets. Fruity Rhythm is definitely one of my favourite fragrances, as you can see this bottle is almost finished. It costs around INR 500 for 50ml, I don’t remember the exact price. I wish it would last longer but for this much cost I don’t mind it. They have more scents in this line. At the time I had bought this, there were two more scents, though the site lists a lot more which most probably are not available in India. I just found out from their site that they have these scents in deodorants too. Yippee!!
Paisa Vasool: Yes
My Rating: 4.5/5 (It would be perfect if it would last longer.)
So whats your fragnance this summer? J

The Body Shop Tea Tree skin clearing foaming cleanser (review)

The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Foaming Cleanser (Review)
Price: INR 450
What it claims: Wash away make-up, dirt and excess oil and unclog pores with a zesty, refreshing, lightweight liquid-to-foam cleanser.
How it works: Lemon tea tree and Community Trade tea tree oil from Kenya contain properties that help fight blemishes and prevent new ones from forming.
Tamanu oil from Madagascar has a soothing effect and helps to calm irritation and redness.
Menthol creates a cool fresh tingle that leaves skin feeling refreshed.
A non-aerosol pump transforms the liquid formulation in the bottle into a light, silky foam.
QuickView
I’ll tell you a secret. My brother has bought this cleanser and as far as I know he has no idea that I am using this.J The body shop tea tree foaming cleanser comes in a pump bottle. It has the typical tea tree fragnance.
Pros
Makes skin clearer. Tea tree is well known for its anti-bacterial  properties and is beneficial for acne prone skin.
Cons
Too strong. Dries out skin.I cannot imagine using it twice a day, using it once a day dried out my skin enough. My brother did not experience this problem though.
I believe this cleanser would be too strong for people with sensitive skin.
I did not find it that useful in making the skin clear. Did not help with blackheads as well.
My Rating: 2.5/5
Paisa Vasool: Not for me. Then again people do like this product, you can give it a try if your skin is not dry or sensitive.
Would I buy again: No                
[ I remember using Ayur tea tree facewash when I was in school, it helped me and a lot of my friends with acne problem. It used to cost like 40 bucks or something. I have not seen it in stores since a long time, but if you have problem skin and find it somewhere, please do give it a try.]
