Recently Lotus Herbals introduced an exciting range of Body Lotions which includes: Vanilla Velvet, CocoaCaress, Almond Nourish, Aloesoft and Cherry Bliss. I wanted to go for CocoaCaress but not available at my local Health&Glow chain, so I picked up this Almond Nourish Body Lotion.

Price :
The product is priced at Rs 225/- for 300 ml.

Directions for Use:
Apply liberally all over the body, ideally after a shower or bath on damp skin for best skin softening, sealing in the moisture.

Key Ingredients:

My Experience:
Basically it is for Normal to Combination skin and me having extremely dry skin, picked up because it contains Almond Oil. :-) . It made my skin soft and radiant…can see that radiance in my skin once I started using this….the only concern was I have to reapply it again and again after every 3-4 hours . Consistency is not very thick or runny.

BOOTS NO.7 MINERAL PERFECTION FOUNDATION REVIEW


Mineral makeup is gaining its popularity and we have many brands introducing new products in this range. I picked this mineral foundation during my UK trip and been using it since 6-7 months now. It is available in four shades: Almond, Buff, Blonde and New Ivory. Boots is a famous brand in UK.


What Product Claims:
A gentle foundation, with a precious gemstone complex of Ruby, Sapphire and Amethyst, that diffuses light to give a flawless finish. No talc. No preservatives.
^-^.


Price :

I got this for Rs 500/- in a sale. The quantity is 10g.

How to Use: (Taken from Website):

Tap out a small amount o powder into the lid. Taking your brush swirl the powder into the lid, making sure that all the powder is taken up into the hairs of the brush- this breaks down the minerals into creamy texture. Then tap the brush on the lid to remove excess powder & starting on the outside of the face, buff the powder in a circular motion into the centre of the face. Continue to buff for a perfect application.


My Experience with the Product:
I purchased the New Ivory one and it blends so well with my skin tone that it doesn’t give an makeup effect at all and looks completely natural making my kin even toned and radiant :^D . I just love to use it everyday. It comes in a screw top container with a sifter to dispense the product along with a cute Kabuki brush. The bristles are very soft and buffs the powder well.It doesn’t make my skin look very shiny but gives a even toned radiant finish which is just amazing. Staying powder is also great, for about 8-9 hours. 



Pros:
Its very light on skin and doesn’t give you a feeling of carrying heavy makeup.
Gives a very natural finish to skin making it even toned and radiant.
Gives a flawless complexion which every women crave for
Comes along with a cute Kabuki brush.
Contains SPF 15.
No preservatives . No talc.

Cons:
I have no complaints. Will repurchase it again.
