Color your lips red this Holiday Season with MAC

on

Even though I’m a huge makeup lover, I choose nude and subtle lipstick shades for my day-to-day looks. My red lipsticks usually sit at the end of the drawer waiting for the party season! This is the time to plan those glittery and glimmery eye looks with a pop of red on your pout. Whether you’re planning to attend Christmas parties at work or will be enjoying a nice Christmas lunch with your loved ones, you need a good red lip for the occasion. When I say good lipstick, no brand does it best than the good old MAC. Even though I have a huge makeup collection that includes many luxe brands, I have a strong love for my classic MAC lipsticks.

Olaplex – Everything you need to know!

on

They say to treat your hair with royalty. It is the crown that you never take off! Great hair can instantly make you feel comfortable. Repeated coloring and chemical treatments can damage our hair, making it more prone to dryness, dullness, and breakage. There are many products available in the beauty industry that just gloss over the damaged bits, coating them so they look smoother. However, these products don’t actually do anything for hair’s structural integrity. This is where Olaplex comes into the picture! Olaplex came from nowhere and suddenly it was everywhere. The best bit? You can use it in the comfort of your own home too.

Vanagloria - Laboratorio Olfattivo - Ashh | Ms tantrum Blog

NEW Vanagloria from Laboratorio Olfattivo

on

Thrilled to share the magic of the Master Perfumer Dominique Ropion – The nose behind some of the world’s most incredible fragrances. Vanagloria – a part of Master’s Collection from Laboratorio Olfattivo is an incense resinous vanilla fragrance for men and women. The fragrance was launched in 2021. Dominic wanted to create a perfume that expresses all the richness of Vanilla and its multiple facets. This creation is built around an LMR Vanilla bean of sublime quality, of which the most subtle tones have been amplified. This Bourbon Vanilla, grown in the heart of the Indian Ocean, is extracted using CO2, a cold extraction technique that reveals the full spectrum of its gourmand, floral, leathery and spicy notes. Its leathery character is reinforced by saffron and its addictiveness by the tonka bean, while the enveloping layers of incense add the texture of a mystical aura.

Triggers for sensitive skin and ways to treat it

on

When it comes to skincare, you might have heard about different types of skin namely – normal, oily, combination, dry and sensitive. People with sensitive skin are often confused if they really have it or is it just sensitized due to some factors? Sensitive skin is skin that is more reactive than usual. It can be easily irritated by sun, heat, cold, pollution, hormones, lack of sleep, or topical products. Any skin type from oily to acne-prone, and dry to mature can get irritated or sensitive if its natural barrier is weakened or broken down by triggers. A person can be born with sensitive skin or can develop it over time. Heightened skin sensitivity could also signal an underlying skin condition such as eczema, or rosacea.
