Review: Products from Homebazar.pk

I'm a sucker for makeup products. Everybody is. No? Every girl, okay. So I got two products from this facebook page called homebazar.pk, a mermaid contouring brush and a pair of Esqido eyelashes.

I had seen a lot of youtubers using this brush in their tutorials and always wanted to get my hands on this. Not exaggerating at all, but this is the best makeup brush that I own. The bristles are so soft and dense, you can rub it all day on your face for no reason lol. Feels amazing. Haha.
Breaking the makeup rules, I used it to apply foundation as well and it was perfectttt. It blends your makeup so easily I'd definitely recommend it to EVERYONE. You guys must give it a try. Trust me you won't regret.

The second product was Esqido eyelashes. It is a well known brand and has a wide variety of designs. The first thing that attracted me was the packaging. It was quite decent and a good packaging symbolizes that the product is good as well. The lashes were quite fluttery and very easy to apply. I loved them. They are a bit costly (all high-end brands are, of course) but totally worth the money. 


 Homebazar.pk has a wide variety of original beauty products and you guys can order anything from their range.

Hope the review helped!
take care xx

Recipe: Hash Browns

I have never met anyone who doesn't like potatoes. We all love potatoes, no?
So, I was home alone and wanted to make something for me and I planned to try hash browns because I didn't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen cooking something difficult. So, this recipe for the old, classic hash browns is AMAZING 💯

Doesn't take more than like, 15-20 minutes and the taste is too good 👅
Okay, so what you need is :
4-5 medium sized potatoes
1 large egg
Black pepper, salt, red chilli powder to taste
Oil for frying.
Recipe:
Peel and grate the potatoes.
Wash them.
Let them dry. You can also use a paper towel to dry them.
Make sure there isn't any moisture left.
Beat one egg, add in salt, red chilli powder, black pepper to taste. You can also add other spices as well. I prefer these only.
Mix the egg and potatoes together.
Heat 3,4 tbsp of oil in a non-stick frying pan.
Scoop some of the mixture and put it in the oil in the form of a thin layer.
Let it fry on medium heat.
Once it gets brown, turn the side.
It takes around 6 minutes to cook both sides.
Once you've fried them, take them out, drain the excess oil and ENJOY!
DO TRY THIS GUYSSS IT'S YUMMY 👅👅
Let me know how it was ✨

Review: Iznik lawn - Spring/Summer 2017 unstitched collection


Iznik has made their mark in the industry due to their amazing designs and the beautiful color schemes.

They have casual,party wear and fancy dresses in their collections and the delicate, elegant work on them is to die for. I recently came across the pictures of their Spring/Summer 2017 unstitched collection, that is present in all the leading stores nationwide since 27th March, and fell in love with their designs.


The designers have put in a lot of effort to design these gorgeous dresses and I believe, they have done an amazing job.
There are 10 different designs that give you the option to choose from their flower patterns, Moroccan patterns, baroque and French Teasels.

The lawn used is pure 80*80 lawn and the dupattas are of chiffon. The color carries vibrant and fresh colors for summers. The floral designs make this collection perfect for Spring and Summer.
I myself am a huge fan of light colors and decent embroidery so this collection caught my eyes instantly.


The best part is that these are priced at rs. 3,990 only, that's not too much for a dress that has a good quality, beautiful print and elegant embroidery. No?


I'm planning to get my hands on one or two dresses from their latest collection.
What are your favourtie clothing brands? Would love to know in the comments x

REVIEW: BIODERMA SENSIBIO H2O

Applying makeup is what I can do EVERY DAY, EVERY TIME. It's something that makes me happy and is my ONLY hobby 😻
Creating different looks with all that lovely makeup stuff is so much fun 😄
But, what I hate the most is removing my makeup. :3
I can spend hours doing my makeover but I find it hard spending 5 minutes to remove it.
And to be honest, sometimes when you get back home from some wedding or some party, you feel too tired to wipe your makeup off.
I found a solution to that and I'm here with an amazing review ✨

Bioderma Pakistan sent me their cute little samples along with an invite to a bloggers event (unfortunately I couldn't attend the event due to some reasons) but, talking about the samples, THEY SENT ME SOMETHING THAT I DEFINITELY NEEDED 💯
I had heard a lot about bioderma sensibio H2O but this is the first time that I tried it myself.
Okay, so, first of all you need a very little amount to wipe all your makeup off. The foundation, concealer, blush on, contouring and highlighting stuff, setting powder, the eyeshadows and oh, your water proof matte lipstick and water proof mascara and liner too 😄
Trust me just a few drops are enough to clean it all. Yes, it removes water proof mascara too, in a just few seconds. The technique is that you have to hold the cotton lightly on your eyes for a few seconds to clean it properly.
Then, the best part. You don't have to wash your face after wiping your makeup off.
This is something perfect for lazy bums like me 💯
And, I've got a combination skin and I don't usually get pimples but my my skin broke out these winters (idk why) and I was having a few pimples when I used it but it didn't irritate my skin or my pimples at all.
For me, it's a holy grail now.
And I'd suggest every one of you to get it ✨
Hope you liked the review.
What do you want me to review next?

Review: Reforma.pk Haul

Hi guys. Hope everyone's doing good.
Winters make me lazy. Very lazy. I've got a number of products lined up to review on my blog and I keep on delaying it.
But oh, I'm active on instagram and I keep posting short reviews for my followers over there ☝
So, let's talk about my Reforma.pk Haul right now.

1. Makeup Revolution Ultra Cover and Conceal Palette in Shade Light to Medium:


I was sent these amazing things by reforma.pk during my exams so the review was pending. We all know makeup revolution makes amazing products at affordable prices and trust me I loveee this brand.


Okay, this palette contains 8 shades of concealer that are perfect for light to medium skin tones.
The concealers have a medium coverage and have a really smooth application.
They blend in so easily I just love the formula.
2 of my friends have used it and they're willing to order it for themselves now. 😄
However, IN MY OPINION you should get this palette (or any concealer palette) only if you are a professional mua or have a lot of people around to use it.
This is because you don't need all the shades for yourself. Right?
So, if you wish to purchase it, you can find it on www.reforma.pk

2. LA Girl HD Highlighter


I have this thing for highlighters that I LOVEE collecting them. You know, every girl needs the perfect glow to slay her makeup look.
This highlighter has the perfect shade to be used at night. It's really pigmented so you need a little amount only. I apply it on my cheekbones and T-zone and then, lightly apply a powder highlighter in the same shade at the top to lock the glow. This works great if you are going for a heavy coverage.

3. LA girl Velvet Contour Stick Highlighter in Cashmere:


I've been wanting to try one of these contour sticks by LA Girl Cosmetics for long. It's smooth and glides on skin too easily and blends nicely as well. The only thing I don't like about it is that it doesn't last all day. You can use it while doing a light makeup look for sure.

4. Makeup Revolution Lipstick in Beloved:


This lipstick is of a cute, natural pink color. It isn't as dark as it looks when you first see it, you know, it's not that pigmented. Still, it's quite moisturizing and you can literally wear it on your lips every day.
It's the perfect pink for school, college going girls to be used daily and suits fair skin tone the best. However, the staying power is not that good as it lasts for 3-4 hours only.

Guys, you can find original makeup products on www.reforma.pk
Hope you liked the review. I should write more often, shouldn't I?
Let me know what you want me to write about.
And oh, don't forget to participate in the giveaway :)

Advantages and Disadvantages of Online Shopping in Pakistan

Online shopping has become quite popular for the last few years in Pakistan. People prefer sitting at home and buying stuff online rather than going outside in hot or cold weather, getting stuck in the traffic on the roads and going from one place to another to find their desired products. Although Online shopping in Pakistan has facilitated people in numerous ways, it also has some disadvantages.
Let me tell you some of it's advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages of Online Shopping:

Talking about the advantages of e-commerce , here are the few main points that you need to know:

1. Saves your time

You don't need to take special time out to go to the market to buy the desired products. It saves at least 2-3 hours that you spend while shopping in the market.

2. Huge Variety

This is also a great advantage of online shopping. There's a huge variety of stuff on different websites or pages that helps you choose from a lot of options. 

3. Doesn't require much effort

So, this helps you a lot buy saving your energy too. You don't have to go here and there looking for the products that you want and spending time and energy for hours. You don't feel exhausted after shopping your favorite products.

Disadvantages of Online Shopping:

Now, let me mention a few disadvantages of e-commerce as well. Here they are:

1. Quality is not guaranteed

The first fear that comes in your mind while thinking about online shopping is about the quality of the product. You are not sure whether you'll get the same product in hand, that you're seeing on the internet or not. 

2. Takes time

It's hard to wait for weeks for your stuff to arrive, no? This is what I hate about online shopping. You have to wait for days or weeks or even months. I don't like it at all.

3. Extra delivery charges

This is such a pain especially if you want to buy something little because you don't want to pay the shipment charges more than the original price of the product.

These were the advantages and disadvantages of online shopping in Pakistan that were in my mind. Do you know more? Let me know in the comments!
