NOTD : Bling Nails & Happy new year 2012 !!

Hi girls,
This is my last post for this year. This year started with an unusual date 1-1-11 and it was also a memorable day for me because i got engaged with the man of my dreams. I started blogging back in April 2011 , in the start , i did not have any idea what i am supposed to do. Today , i have got too much appreciation and support from my lovely readers. Thank you all for this.
I wanted to end this year with a bling nail art post. lets have a look what i am wearing on my nails , shall we ?

I wanted to bling up my nails for new year's eve , that is why i decorated my nails with rhinestones , a silver foil polish looks better with rhinestones.

i applied 3 coats of christine nail polish in 174. It is a silver foil nail shade.  I love christine nail lacquers because they are affordable and have a vast collection of nail colors . This particular shade is sheer , and needs to apply 3 coats to get opaque finish.

These rhinestones were sent to me by meliney.com , it is a small pot of rhinestones which consists of different designs and patterns of rhinestones and pearls in different sizes. Lets have a look at this pot filled with cuteness :

Do you like this ? Happy new year 2012 to all of you !!

EOTD : Everyday Green Gold eye makeup & Review: Dizon Eye Grey Circle Lens

Hi to my all suger plums out there , i wanted to share my eye makeup look i did last evening , it is a green and gold look which is perfect to pair with any of your green outfit , isnt it ? I love wearing winged eyeliner as it instantly gives a lot of drama to your simple eye make up look. Here is the final result :

I did not used much products as i was just going out to hang out with my friends . Here is the list of products i used :

Jasmine Water BB Cream ( review here )

k-palette 24h eye tattoo eyeliner ( review here )

Christine single eye shadow ( read review here )

Lumiere eye shadow in amber & cuppocinno ( review here )

Diana of london eyeliner pencil ( read review here )

Dolly eye Dizon Grey lens

Surprised ? because i did not use any concealer or foundation ? well , my skin becomes almost flawless in winters and my complexion gets better. So i want to keep it natural and glowing at the same time. A bb cream is a great alternative to foundation. It keeps your skin moisturized and gives sun protection too.

Review : Dizon Grey Circle lens :

I am also loving Dolly eye dizon grey circle lenses. These have a perfect amount of ash grey in it , which does not look weird in flash and gives a soft look every time i wear them. Lets see how do they look in different kind of lightning :

Natural Daylight :

Indoor Light :

With Flash :

Out door lights :

Inside lens case :

Fast facts :

1.	Sold as	: Per Pair
2.	Diameter	: 14.5mm
3.	Base Curve	: 8.6mm
4.	Water Content	: 42%
5.	Replacement Period	: 12 months

These lenses came in a cute box printed with a winter theme and with a layering of bubble wraps inside. These boxes are collectables and you can keep your small pieces of jewelry inside or giving it as a present to someone else. Lens case is also provided with it free.

My thoughts :

The color and design of these lenses are very natural. If you want to wear something subtle and natural , then these lenses are a must have for you. I am wearing these for 15 days now , and i am not having any kind of trouble. These are my most favorite pair of circle lenses when i want to wear something natural yet classy. These lenses are 14.5 in diameter and they enlarges my eyes well. But i feel that these lenses are thin too , that is why i feel it is difficult to put inside my eyes. But now i am getting used to it and it is not a problem now. These are very comfortable that i even forget that i am wearing circle lenses after a few hours. The water content of these lenses are also high upto 42%. which makes them really comfortable while wearing.

Where to buy ?

If you are interested in buying these lenses , you can go to Uniqso or visit them on Facebook.

I hope that you will like my review and blog post. Feel free to give me suggestions below !!.

NOTD : Luscious nail lacquer in glazed berry stamped with gold !!

Hi girls ,
I stamped my nails few days before using nail art stamping kit ( mentioned here ) . I applied two coats of Luscious cosmetics nail lacquer in glazed berry , and stamped it with a Medora Nail polish in golden shade 366. I also used this Medora nail polish HERE as a base color.  Here is the final result :

Glazed berry is a gorgeous maroon shade by luscious cosmetics , one of the leading cosmetics brand of Pakistan. I bought this nail lacquer last year from their website. It is one of my favorite nail lacquer during festive season. It became very thick , so i added a few drops of nail polish remover in it to revive it. Now it is back to the normal condition. I am so happy :)

I feel really ashamed of myself that i could not take many pictures of this nail art. My camera's battery was drained out that time ..!!

I am still in a learning phase when it comes to nail art stamping ,It is my latest addiction , you will get more nail art stamping posts in the coming days :) stay tuned !!

Signing off ,
Jeeya

NOTD : Dotty Dots nail art !!

Hey girls , i hope that you all will be enjoying holidays at the moment. Today i am going to share an easy way to decorate your nails at home. I am aware of this fact that most of the girls here in Pakistan are unable to go to expensive nail salons and get a nail art for them. I have used a simple technique here , which you all can try at home . Lets take a look :

I am loving the effect i got in the end , it is very funky and cute . What do you say ?

Black is my favorite nail color in winter and this is the easiest way to jazz up a black nail polish.


DIY at home :
start applying a base coat on your nails and let it completely dry . Apply a base color. I applied two coats of Glamorous Faces Black nail color here. let it dry completely otherwise you will get it ruin. Pour one or two drops of desired nail color on a plastic sheet and pick it up using a tooth pick. Apply dots randomly all over your nails . You are free to choose any color and size of dots according to your choice.
I used 4 different nail colors for dots here :

1. Picture Polish Nail color in Tango
2. Aqua Nail color in Blue
3. Nailtiques nail color in Red 
4. Christine nail color in Silver

Finish off using a top coat. Here is the final result :

Review & Swatches : Motives Shape & Sculpt Duo

Hey girls , Today i am going to talk about Motives Shape & Sculpt Duo , which is meant to define & hightlight your face structure. Lets see what do i have to say about this product...

Product Description :

Double-sided compact that contains everything you need to highlight and contour like a pro. The dark side creates depth in areas such as the hollows of your cheeks. Using the light side brings the eye forward, highlighting areas such as the bridge of the nose or chin. Contouring can help accentuate and hide imperfect face structures, making you look your best every day.

Primary Benefits : 

• Two-in-one highlighter and matte contour powder
• Luxurious formula that glides on smoothly to highlight and sculpt
• Designed for all skin types
• Non-irritant formula
• Paraben, oil and fragrance free

My thoughts :

First of all , packaging is very eye catching . It is sturdy , classy and sleek. They have included a small size mirror inside which makes it very travel friendly.

 It contains one highlighter shade and one contour shade divided into two. The idea of putting highlighter and contour shade in one product is really great. Now you do not have to carry two different products with you. They have silky smooth texture , which easily blends into skin. The shades are just perfect to suit any complexion. Previously, i was using a matte brown eyeshadow for contouring and a beige white shadow for highlighting. But it makes my life easier and hassle free. It really compliments my wheatish complexion .

Motives - Shape & Sculpt Duo

As you can see in the above picture , it does not contain any kind of glitter or shimmer in it . It is a matte shade with silky finish. You can easily control the depth , if you want it to give you a naturally contoured cheeks , apply it with a light hand . You can increase the intensity as much as you like.
Here is a swatch of these on my hand :

swatch of shape & sculpt duo by Motives

There is no applicator or brush is provided , but i think my Sigma Flat top kabuki brush works great with it.

Back side of Motives Shape & Sculpt Duo contains details about the product.

Over all i am pleased with this product , the only thing which bothers me is its price tag. It is available for 21$.

if you want to buy this product you can get it HERE for 21$ . Motives by Loren Ridinger has a vast collection of cosmetics and they are offering some great discounts during festive season.


Share your thoughts if you have ever tried their cosmetics , how did you find them ? feel free to comment below !

Hey girls , i am going to review two circle lenses today which was provided to me a month before by secreteyes.org . First one is Geo Hurricane Brown and second one is DM23 Pink circle lens . Lets find out what do i have to say about these.

1. Geo Hurricane Brown (HC-104) :
I am a great fan of Geo Hurricane Grey , I so wanted to try these in brown color. I am glad that i made a wise decision. These lenses are no doubt beautiful , mysterious and sober at the same time. I love the way it transform my dark brown eyes into honey brown eyes . It gives my face a soft look and goes with every kind of eye make up. It gives a certain depth to my eyes. I must say , these lenses are a must have for girls who like subtle yet pretty circle lenses.

2. DM23 Pink :
This circle lens was a complementary gift for me and picked up by the secreteyes.org . I would never have been selected it for myself as i thought pink color would look so strange on my eyes.

These are extremely beautiful and gives my eyes a romantic look. Lets have a look at these :

 They lenses are bigger in diameter 14.5mm ,but they looks great with dramatic eye make up. Obviously i can not wear these at work as pink lenses are yet not acceptable in our society. But at parties or night outs , i can wear them with ease and comfort.

Review : OrthoFill , An Alternative to Braces

Hi girls , my Today's post is a bit different from regular ones. I used to review beauty products and make up looks with you all . But i thought a person is incomplete if there is any flaws in her or his oral health. Gaps in between teeth and irregular shape and size of teeth ruin the whole beauty of a person. I came across a very cheap solution to all of these problems. That is why i decided to share with all my readers too !!

What is Orthofill :

The Orthofill Bands have been developed by orthontists as a quick and permanent solution to close the space between your teeth.
The Orthofill band only takes two to five weeks to close your teeth gap and can be worn at night.

How it works :
Remove one of the bands from the package just before going to bed. Carefully slip the band over the first tooth you need to close the gap on.

 You may find it slightly awkward to roll the band on in the beginning. With your index finger and thumb gently pull the band over the other tooth, as you continue to use the bands, placing them on and removing them will become second-nature to you. Expect to feel a slight tension and tightening. Make sure the band fits over the upper part of the two teeth, with the gap being located between both teeth. The slight pressure you feel will be the band working to close the gap. 

Keep the band on the gapped teeth during the entire night. It is important that you wear it all night. You may experience a slight discomfort the first few days of use. This discomfort indicates the bands are working and will disappear after a couple of days. During the first 30 days of use you should only wear the band for 12 hour periods.

Upon waking in the morning gently roll the used bands off the gapped teeth. Discard the used band and brush your teeth as you normally do. Avoid placing another band on the teeth until evening as this may cause too much discomfort.

Before & After :

Price & Availability :
There is a limited time offer of 27$ for 100 bands . Visit Orthofill for more information .

My thoughts :

I am a working lady , that is why i prefer natural looking lenses. What i love most about these that they are really comfortable , i can wear them to a night out without any worries. Second thing is its pattern and colour. I have dark brown eyes already . And these lenses naturally enhances my eyes colour. It is more a yellow brown colour which gives a honey shade in certain lightnings. The pattern is a swirly flower design which is not so obvious when worn but looks very pretty. They blends really well with my eyes. 

Despite the fact that these are only 14.00mm in diameter but they enlarges my eyes pretty well and without giving alien eye or bug-eyed effect.
