Summer Trends: Nail Polishes for the Summer! ❤

Hi everyone!
So summer is in full swing, atleast here in Karachi. My favorite part of the summer is all the colorful new beauty trends!!
I'll be uploading a few posts about this year's summer trends. Today we're going to talk about some of my favorite nail colors for the summer.(:



So basically, anything light and pastel will work for the summer. Avoid dark/vampirey colors. (Even though I love vampires).

Outfit of the Day - Birthday Outfit!

Hi guys!
Yes, it was my birthday yesterday. And I had nothing to wear so we went emergency shopping and found out there was a huge one-day sale in Khaadi (my lucky day!).
So i bought this really cute yellow and white screen printed shirt.



I paired it with a white palazzo and gold slippers that's also from Khaadi.
The shirt was 40% off. Originally it was Rs.2500. I bought it for Rs.1200. Steal right?!

Oh and I got a new camera for my birthday! :)
That's it for now.
Love,
Rida x

Glam Up with The Body Shop Contest - Personalizing the Leona Lewis look!


Hi Everyone,
I was so excited when I got an email from The Body Shop Pakistan, asking all bloggers to participate in an exclusive competition. We had to create a look using the all new Leona Lewis Collection. I am so glad that international brands are now coming forward and giving beauty blogging a platform to showcase their talents!
My sister and I immediately scheduled the date and time at The Body Shop outlet in Dolmen City Mall, Karachi. Here is the look I created on my sister, Maliha! I hope you all love it :)

We had so much fun experimenting with the Leona Lewis range. Here are the products I used,
  • Extra Virgin Minerals Foundation
  • All in one Face Base
  • The Body Shop Concealer Crayon
  • Color Crush eye shadows in Berry Cheeky, Pink Crush and My Clementine
  • The Body Shop Carbon Eye Definer in Black
  • The Body Shop Brow and Liner Kit in Brown/Black
  • The Body Shop Super Volume Mascara
  • Honey Bronze Bronzing Gel 
  • The Body Shop Leona Lewis Oh Deer! Blush Shimmer Pallete
  • Lip Gloss in Deerlicious Fuchsia

The experience we had was awesome! The Body Shop staff was really helpful and they too were enjoying giving feedback and suggestions. The Leona Lewis Collection itself is so bright and yummy, that I was almost tempted to buy the lip gloss and highlighter/shimmer palette. But I stopped myself thinking that I should wait till the contest results are announced :) Who knows I might just get lucky! Looking around at the entries, I must say that the competition is getting pretty tough! Wish us all the best of luck ladies. 

Don't forget to give your feedback on the look.
Rida.

Essence Stay All Day 16h - Review and Swatches

Hi Girls,
I am so excited to do a review after such a long time. I posted a haul some days ago, asking you all that which product should I review first. And Essence Stay All Day 16h got the most votes. I tried this foundation for around two and half weeks before I could establish my opinion and get back to you all. So here it is!

The Essence Stay All Day Foundation is a liquid foundation which comes in a very practical bottle with a pump and a cover. It claims to give a flawless complexion for up to 16 hours and it is dermalogically approved too.
