Revlon colorstay whipped creme makeup! Review - Beauty souffle

I usually do a bit of research before I invest in any of the beauty buys, but this time however I just picked up as soon as I spotted the product.

First time, an impulse purchase worked good for me!

This little Revlon Colourstay whipped creme mousse foundation , which I bought accidently is definitely now a top-shelf foundation for me. Amongst all my favorites earlier like Lakme 9-5 or Maybelline dream matte mousse which had become quiet a talk of the town as they weren't many "Mousse foundations" in the Indian market back then.

So this one is a mousse - yes, but very unlikely Maybelline. Not very creamy yet perfect

Lemme give a lowdown

Packaging:
Chunky huge glass container. Not at all travel friendly, but it looks sturdy. The jar has a nice glossy black lid that gives it a solid look - rich and appealing.



 Comes in 12 Shades: Ivory, Buff, Sand Beige, Nude, Natural Beige, Medium Beige, Warm Golden, True Beige, Early Tan, Natural Tan, Rich Ginger, Caramel.

foundation, mousse
Medium Being for Indian skin type



Texture:
It earns it's brownie points here, the texture is very satiny/velvety finish. Light-weight and gives your skin the tinge of glow that it needs. Extremely smooth finish. Does not blot or wear out. Blends perfectly into the skin.
For me, it's remarkably better than the other mousse foundations I have used, since its shine- free and gives my skin complete coverage
Revlon Satin Finish
Wear it?
You can actually wear it everyday to work. It's shine-free, cake-free finish makes it addictive! So once it's there you would not want to leave your home without a glide-on

Longevity:
It gets completely absorbed into the skin, slowly it settles in and you could actually observe the slight sheen and  coverage in a few hours. It lasts longer and does not wear off easily

Definitely a try!
I highly recommend this product since it stays consistence after application. Satin finish with a glow. It conceals your dark circles, blemishes and works!
Also, no need to brush powder or compact, since it covers up for the little dab of powder, afterwards. It finishes the look of your face and has light powder deposits that gives your skin a little powdered effect also

Price
550 Baht - Expensive

Pros
Lightweight
Long-lasting
Good coverage
Everyday wear
Stand-alone face product( No need for powder/compact)

Cons
Not travel-friendly
No SPF
Expensive


 What's the difference between Dewy and Satin Finish?
Dewy Finish


This looks comes out as a shiny moisturized look, it's when you get that hint of shine on your face due to a bit of oil base in the foundations



Satin Finish like - Revlon whipped creme makeup
It refers to the foundation which exude  more  longevity just like matte foundation, but with a smooth soft shine.
It blends with the skin, yet uplifting it and making it look pretty. More like giving a full coverage by hiding  blemishes and fine lines and at the same time not making it look loud and cakey

Affordable Sleeping Mask – CUCUMBER & ALOE @ MINIMONO BANGKOK

Image
The other day I went to MINIMONO, the affordable store in Bangkok with everything priced at 60 Baht under one roof. I walked in with an intention to buy the quirky yet cheap products, but I landed up with my eyes popped out at this sleeping mask priced at 80 baht. A sleeping mask this cheap? No one would risk their skin, but I am here to experiment and share my views. Also, a sleeping mask with Aloe Vera and Cucumber. What could really go wrong with both the healing ingredients. So firstly, this product has the same fragrance as your HERBAL FACIALS/CLEAN UPS in Indian beauty parlors gave you. Oh how I used to love it, that earthy smell. The texture – who are the kidding? It’s not a mask mask. It’s a light-textured cream that can be applied as desired. As in, you can mask it or play around with the consistency on your face with a handful of it. Since it is feature- light, not greasy and not thick as all these MASKS claim to be. Minimono Thailand Smooth textur...

Chamomile Tea, try it!

Image
This must be my first ever cup of chamomile tea. Usually my office pantry stocks a variety of Twinings teas, ranging from green tea, to chamomile to Lemon and more... I, being a complete green tea drinker, usually never land up trying any of the other varieties. But since I had bit of stomach upset this morning , it suddenly dawned on me, I need something milder and little more soothing than a green tea or a coffee. After having 3 cups of chamomile one after the other, I still feel so light on my stomach and so calm in my head. Though nothing like a kick from the morning coffee, I must say it has amazing soothing properties. Look for the…..   After – taste it leaves in your mouth, it reminds me somehow of  soaked and peeled almonds, that’s one reason I couldn’t stop drinking it.As a child I loved the almonds soaked overnight, I still do, but I am lazy and forgetful, so I need my mommy to do it :D Aiding Sleep They say chamomile is good...
