BEST COMPACT POWDER FOR OILY SKIN-Compact powder helps you in getting rid of the excess oil and sweat on your face. It makes your makeup look smooth and flawless. Finding the best compact powder for your skin is itself a struggle. I also have tried a lot of compact powders of different brands. But nothing worked perfectly for my skin. I have combination skin (sometimes more oily, sometimes drier or both). During summer when my T- zone gets oily, it becomes necessary to use a good compact powder. And then finally got my hands on Maybelline's Clear Smooth All in One Compact Powder and I freaking love it. MAYBELLINE CLEAR SMOOTH ALL IN ONE COMPACT POWDER: Packaging : small plastic baby pink colored box, travel friendly  Consistency : smooth, soft milt  Price : 1250 PKR  Shades : It comes in different shades. People with darker skin can have problems finding the perfect shade because it has more options for lighter skin and yellow undertones.  MY EXPERIENCE WITH MAYBELLI...

 MAYBELLINE PRIMER- Who has not heard of Maybelline and its products having amazing results and affordable prices. If you are a Maybelline fanatic like me then you must have tried its products. Maybelline foundations and mascaras are something every girl is crazy about. But this time I wanted to try its famous Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser Primer to see how it works for me.   I know some people who completely skip primer in their makeup routine but I consider primer the most important thing in my makeup routine.

BEST FACE MOISTURIZER FOR OILY SKIN AND ACNE-There are many different kinds of moisturizers of different brands available in the market so it becomes difficult which one to choose. Getting a perfect moisturizer means you don't have to worry about half of your skin problems. It is not something specifically for people with dry skin can only use but for people like me who have combination skin (sometimes more oily, sometimes more dry, or sometimes both), it is also necessary to moisturize their skin well. Better moisturizing of skin comes with the use of good moisturizer. It doesn't mean always to consider brands or expensive moisturizers when talking about the best moisturizers.  What we always do? we just randomly pick up any moisturizer irrespective of considering its results and how it would react to our skin. And gets excited that yeah it's doing its work well. But needpeople like me who sometimes have more oily and sensitive skin needs to be extra careful. All of us hav...

BEST PRIMER FOR OILY AND DRY SKIN- Primer is something that makes your makeup look more flawless and long-lasting. It preps your skin well for makeup application. There are different primers available for oily skin in markets so it becomes difficult to exactly find or chose the best prime that suits our skin.

 BEST TONER FOR OILY AND DRY SKIN-  Personally, I am not a very big fan of toners. There are a lot of different kinds of toners available for different skin types in the market. I also have tried some. Here I will be reviewing my favorite toner which I find perfect for my skin type (normal to sensitive). Not all products suit every skin so it becomes necessary to choose wisely before taking any risk or wasting money.  I got this toner from Flower Toner, skin moist by XimiVogue from  XimiVogue, Pakistan. And believe me, it changed my whole makeup game. I don't usually use toner but I am a fan of this one. Before this, I simply used to apply Rose Water on my face as a toner prior to makeup because I couldn't find any suitable one for my skin type. I tried many but never suited my skin. Then got this and till now using it.  MY EXPERIENCE:   I bought it for 1250 PKR. It comes in cute plastic packaging with rose petals in it giving you a more natural vibe as I p...

The best way to deal with self-doubt, overthinking, and doubt in the future, is to make space for it and understand that you are worthy of love. You don't need to find a “perfect boyfriend or girlfriend” to be happy: loving yourself means being your own kind of person. This can be done by accepting and understanding yourself, appreciating your strengths, and learning from your mistakes. Here are some steps to get started and understand what actual self-love is!    1. Stop comparing your life to others. A lot of people feel like they are not good enough, don't have what it takes, or aren't doing enough. Instead of making excuses for not meeting standards and expectations, compare yourself to others who do - you're just as capable - you are successful - you've made good friends - have you had a job that is great work and pays well - what did your parents say about you? We all do better than others and there's no shame in admitting this fact. As long as we take ou...

BEST  FOUNDATION FOR OILY AND DRY SKIN-As we all know, foundation is the most basic and important item in our makeup collection, which decides our final makeup look. Therefore, choosing the right foundation according to skin type and skin tone is both time and money-saving. Here I will be sharing my personal experience regarding a foundation that I consider best and most affordable for winters and, for sure, will prove best for you too. MISS ROSE MATTE LIQUID FOUNDATION: Packaging: It comes in a normal size plastic tube Price : 399 PKR- Online Texture: not too runny and too sticky My Experience with MISS ROSE MATT FOUNDATION: Normally, my skin is  oily in summer but in winter, it is dry to some extent as wearing any foundation specifically for dry skin makes my face look cakey and patchy. So for me, finding the best suitable foundation for my skin type during winter was itself a long struggle. Some I tried were too oily, making my face look tired and glossy after some time, an...
