Deyga Hair Serum – Liquid Gold

 

Is your hair dry and damaged too? You want something pure and natural which can protect and cover the hair shaft? The product I am reviewing today is an absolute wonder for your hair, a must try and it is from an Made in India brand, called Deyga Organics.

About Product – Deyga Hair Serum – Liquid Gold

Deyga Hair Serum COLORMECHITRA.blogspot.com


My Review upfront is as below, you can find the details for the product and brand right after.

Hair Serums are something which are very essential for your everyday hair care routine. I have three different ones, usually I keep on changing in between according to weather etc.

Talking about this Hair Serum, Liquid Gold. The ingredients attracted me so much that I had to try this and review it for you. I have dry and curly hair, which is not easy to manage by just simple shampoo and conditioner. I normally wash my hair with sulphate free shampoo and conditioner but still my hair becomes dry and unmanageable in between washes. For that every day I have to use Hair Packs or Hair serums to keep my hair well-conditioned and remove all fizziness from it.

 Let me tell you I am very impressed with the quality of this hair serum. I have used it on dry hair without wash as well as after hair wash in damp hair. Both ways I didn’t find any problems of tangling or stickiness. It made my hair smooth and shiny right after application and remained the same way whole day. It does not have any funky smell, the bottle with dropper makes it so easy to apply on scalp. I don’t have to worry about spilling it anywhere else.

 

Deyga Hair Serum COLORMECHITRA.blogspot.com

 This liquid gold serum is blended with pure 100% organic argan oil and other essential oils to promote new and healthy hair growth. It stimulates hair, from root to tip, and leaves the scalp feeling healthy, free from dryness and irritation.

It comes with price point of Rs. 750 for 30 ml / fl.oz. Its cruelty free, paraben free and sulphate free, no added colors or preservatives. It's totally handmade and natural. It has a shelf life for 8 months, which is really good.

 Ingredients as mentioned on the bottle are 100% Organic Argan Oil, Jajoba Oil, Flax Seed and Carrot Seed Oil and goodness of Peppermint Essential Oil and Vitamin E Oil. I think the ingredients say all and that is why its name has Gold in it.

Argan Oil The powerful antioxidants and nourishing fatty acids in argan oil help keep your hair moisturized and protects against styling damage and damage caused by free radicals. This can result in less breakage and shedding.

Jajoba Oil moisturize your hair from the inside out. It can maintain your scalp's natural balance. It can control dandruff and encourage hair growth. It can repair damage from heat and styling.

Carrot Seed Oil Conditioning the hair with carrot oil is also said to improve its texture, making it shinier, smoother, and softer to the touch. Others who use carrot oil say it helps to prevent hair loss by making the roots stronger at the scalp.

Flax seed Oil the Vitamin E in flaxseed oil helps to treat hair loss and stimulate new hair growth. Lignans act as strong antioxidants which can help in the regrowth of healthier and stronger hair. Topical application of flaxseed oil prevents flaking and nourishes the scalp from within, providing relief from dandruff.

Peppermint Essential Oil Increasing circulation with a vasodilator like peppermint could potentially improve hair growth and prevent some hair loss. Peppermint menthol also imparts a freshened smell and tingly sensation on the skin and scalp. You can reap these benefits by adding the essential oil to your beauty products.

Pumpkin seeds consist of cucurbit in, a unique amino that may be responsible for hair growth. Apart from this, they also contain vitamin C that also plays a crucial role in hair growth. Apply pumpkin seeds oil on scalp to see the results or just consume a handful of them daily

Vitamin E Oil When applied topically to your hair, there's several purported benefits of using vitamin E oil: It can stimulate capillary growth in your scalp, with in turn supports hair growth; it prevents breakage and pesky split ends; its antioxidants even boost hair's elasticity and shine.

About Packaging and Application

The products arrived very nicely packaged. Each product is individually packed in cardboard boxes and inside they are bubble wrapped. The serum comes in dark glass bottle with a dropper, which I loved. I don’t like products coming in cheap plastic bottle, specially serums and face oils.

 

Deyga Hair Serum COLORMECHITRA.blogspot.com

This product comes with dropper so it makes very easy to apply directly to the scalp and will reach the roots after massaging. In this way you are not wasting any product by applying to your palms and then using it. Just take some liquid gold in the dropper, drop it on to the scalp and give a gentle massage for the serum to penetrate in.

 

About Brand

Deyga produces 100% natural and organic products that nourish the skin, hair, bath & body and oral care too. Natural ingredients originate from nature and only undergo chemical changes due to biological processes such as fermentation, distillation, and cold processing. They are handcrafted with love; every ingredient is sourced from the best of farms across india. The products reflect a fresh feel and fragrance. All of their products are vegan, chemical free and cruelty free. They have a whole range of products for both men, women and baby care too. You can check out the products on their website, www.deyga.in

I would totally recommend this product for everyone, who are looking for simple and natural ingredients face pack. It does not make my hair dry, rather it made soft and smooth and shiner and free from dryness and irritation.

Overall, I will give 4/5 to this product, good value for money, packaging is really good and has natural ingredients and works good for my hair type.

Milani Amore Matte Lip Crème Collection -Limited Edition

Hello Beauties,
Today I am going to review one of the most talked about liquid matte lipsticks, but they are limited edition. Make sure you run by your CVS or Walgreens to find them quickly as they are going out fast as I totally recommend them. They are 8 colors in this collection, from nude to really bold colors, these shades look on different skin tones.
01 Crush, 02 Adore, 03 Beloved, 04 Lust, 05 Embrace, 06 Desire, 07 Romance, 08 Flirt
I was skeptical to pick these as I had bad experience with liquid matte lipsticks  with few other brands. But there was so much hype about it, so I decided to pick them. I picked 5 colors 01 Crush, 03 Beloved, 04 Lust, 06 Desire and 07 Romance. They were around $7 in CVS (downtown Dallas), which is little higher but I have seen on  social media people got them at around $5.99 too, which is quite affordable. I love Milani Matte color statement lipsticks as they are cruelty free and they are highly pigmented and various colors in it which you pick according to you liking.
Chitra Pal Milani Amore Matte Lip Crème Collection Chitra Pal Milani Amore Matte Lip Crème Collection
Now lets talk about these Amore Matte Lip Crème, they are in the same tube like they had lip gloss before. The tube has golden cap which feels like luxury product. It has flat applicator on both sides which makes it easier to apply on lips. But be careful the applicator does not have too much product on it. It can go out of control and can come out of lines very easily.
It has really sweet candy kind of fragrance . I still don't know which candy, trying to figure out:) but it goes away after some time, it did not bother at all to me.
They are really pigmented and budge proof, kiss proof. I would say that they are perfectly doing all the claims as mentioned on their website, but it did not last for me after lunch, I had normal sandwich that day and it came off, I have shown in swatch below. It is easy to reapply does not go patchy.
According to website they are :-
This revolutionary, highly saturated liquid-to-matte formula dries to a soft, velvety finish for fuller-looking lips. Its double-sided, flexible plush applicator hugs the contours of lips, working to lock in bold, opaque color. Non-sticky, smooth and ready for all-night wear, the limited edition Amore Matte Lip Crème is the ultimate transfer resistant kiss-me-matte.
Swatches:- I will post lip swatches for them separate:)
Chitra Pal Milani Amore Matte Lip Crème Collection
Like I said I will recommend to everyone who are looking for budget friendly and drugstore options for liquid matte lipsticks. They are worth the hype, grab before they are gone as they are limited edition.

Review on Facial Hair Removal Spring tool from Amazon- Love or Dud

Hi Girls,

Today I am sharing my review on Facial Hair Removal Spring tool with you which I picked up from Amazon for $1.64 + free shipping. You can also buy this from Ebay , around this price.

I have used this since two months now, and I am sharing my honest opinion for this.


Its such a quick, easy, less painful hair removing tool. This worked amazing on me and I am sure after one -two uses you will be quick too. It is actually like threading, but just with a spring instead of thread.

It makes so much easier to use this at home , instead of making Salon trips and spending so much money. I know many people prefer waxing also, but I will recommend this to all girls, even if you are threading or waxing fan. This works amazing and I am sure you will thank me later. I am not sponsored on this post, this is my honest opinion on this tool.

My friend actually recommended this tool to me long back, but somehow I thought going to salon is more convenient, but I don't know what I was thinking that time, I should have used it earlier.

This actually pulls the hair from roots, so it grows less faster like Threading.

How to Use:- See the picture below, on how to hold the spring and then move from downward to upward direction against your hair growth like waxing, keep on twisting it upwards and you will catch the hair in this spring.


Before and After Picture:- I am sorry, if its gross to you, looking at this picture but seriously wanted to help you in seeing the results of this amazing tool.


I have used this seller (Masingo(from HK) on Amazon, to buy this tool, but you can use any other seller on Amazon or  Ebay wherever you get cheaper. It's worth a try for this price. Don't buy from CVS or Walmart, its way more expensive that Amazon or CVS. Brand does not matter in this tool, its just spring which does all the trick.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001S6O0YW?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00


If you want to see the Youtube Videos to see how to use this tool have listed down some of the videos for you:-

Hi Girls,

As you all know I am a drugstore junkie and pure nail polish addict, so as soon I saw @coffebreakwithdani video for this Allure Magazine article for five Nailpolish shades to rock this summer 2015, it totally inspired me to share my picks.

Hope you will find something from your stash too:) do share your picks with me.

This is the article and color selection Allure Magazine picked.

5 Nail Polish Colors to Try Right Now

MAGENTA

We get that you're not Malibu Barbie. But this take on hot pink has cool lavender undertones that make it elegant. It explains why magenta was the manicure of choice on spring runways, including Chanel's.

My Picks:-Essence in Ultimate Pink, WetnWild Shine in Lavender Crème, Essence Girls Night Out, NYC Wine Bar and Sinful Colors in Ablaze

Magenta is my favorite from all nail polishes color for summer. That is why you will see I have more options in that.

Chitra Pal NYC Nailpolish Wine Bar 144 (23)  Chitra Pal Sinful Colors Ablaze (37)

PAPAYA

What could be more appropriate for warmer weather than nails that are the color of fresh tropical juice (bright orange with a hint of pink)?

My Picks:- Sally Hansen Sun Kissed, WetnWild Shine in Blazed, Essie 1095 and Lac Beauty 1964

Chitra Pal Papaya Color Nailpolsihes (1)   Chitra Pal Papaya Color Nailpolsihes (2)

INDIGO BLUE

A hint of purple makes this blue an edgy update on the cobalt and navy manicures you've probably seen everywhere over the last year

My Picks:- NYC Purple Pizzazz, Sally Hansen Pacific Blue

  Chitra Pal NYC Long Wearing Purple Pizzazz Frost (1) Chitra Pal Sally Hansen PacificBlue (28)

SEAFOAM GREEN

This is the vacation version of a goes-with-everything neutral. Pale mint is soft enough to work with your brightest bikini.

My Picks:- Sally Hansen in Mint Sorbet and Sally Girl in Brainy

Chitra Pal SEAFOAM GREEN Nailpolishes (1)  Chitra Pal SEAFOAM GREEN Nailpolishes (2)

BRIGHT LEMON

True, yellow nail polish isn't for everyone. It looks as crisp as linen on fair or dark complexions, but on olive skin, it emphasizes yellow undertones.

My Picks:- Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Mellow Yellow and NYC Long Wear in Midtown Mimosa

Chitra Pal Honey Bee Nails (4)   Chitra Pal BRIGHT LEMON Nailpolishes

I already shared my Manicure using some of these polishes on my blog and Instagram , if you want to see how I did it, click on Instagram account (cateyesdamsel) or have a look at my previous blogpost.

Spring Favorites

This is the first time I decided to share my beauty favorites. I have been wanting to share these posts with you for along time, but I was not sure whether I should do monthly and seasonal favorites, so finally I decided to do this one to start with, what do you guys think?

I will try to post every month my favorite beauty products, hopefully I can keep up with it.

I am also going to do small mini reviews for them in these posts. These are just my opinion for these products, it can differ from all skin types.

Today I am going to share some of my Spring Favorites. When a new season begins to change your make-up routine is as important as re-arranging your closet for the new time. Independently of your skin type, the weather change affects all the beauty tools you use that maybe for winter were okay, but with the heat getting closer and the skin trying to moisturize by itself, new methods and products are needed.

One thing always happens with the change of warm weather is that make-up tends to soften a lot, while in winter a heavy foundation may stay intact, on spring-summer is hard to maintain, not to mention unnatural.

Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (7)

1. This season is where I use the most is BB/CC Creams, and if you want more coverage you can always mix 50/50 with your usual foundation. I use this L'Oreal Magic Nude Liquid Powder which is medium coverage foundation, but its perfect for spring and summer season. I am in shade Classic Ivory. I think they are discontinuing this line, its such an amazing foundation, If you find it better grab it now. I already have two backups.

  Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (4) 

2. I use this WetnWild Coloricon Bronzer in Reserve your Cabana as over all setting/ face powder. I know it’s a bronzer but I use it as face powder because its perfect shade for my skin tone. It has SPF 15 for  protection which is a great deal two in one product.

3. Pixi Color Corrector Concealer in Brightening peach. It’s a salmon peach color corrector which diminishes my purple/blue tone under eyes.

Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (8)

4. Milani Baked Blush in Delizioso Pink. It’s a perfect blue based pink matte bush without any shimmer. It has great pigmentation, is not powdery, and has a silky application with nice coverage. This is such a gorgeous blush. It looks really bright in the pan, but you can apply it lightly and it gives your skin a beautiful, natural glow. I have cool toned skin and this complements it so well. This looks so natural and really brightens up your face. Great staying power too.

Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (2)  Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (5) 

5. Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips All-in-One Custom Palette for Face & Eyes in Natural Nude. I love using it as a highlighter on my cheeks and on my eyelid and inner corner. I also some of the shimmer shadows as overall eyelid color. Its such a great multipurpose product.  

6. Rimmel Gel Eyeliner and Kate Moss Green Eye shadow stick in Green These are such long wearing eyeliners. This black eyeliner is my holy grail gel eyeliner. Its such a great easy wear liner. In Spring season I wear a lot of colorful liners too, this season have been using green color. I have been using green liner as lid color or tight line or lower lid.

Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (9)

7. Essence I love Extreme Crazy Volume Mascara. I really love this mascara. It gives great volume, length, and darkness. Clumps a little bit but not bad at all, the brush is good. I use it everyday and would definitely buy it again.

Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (15) 

8. Epille Green Tea Cleanisng Tissues, These are amazing. They work really well and they're so cheap. They leave my face feeling so soft, and it removes all the oils, dirt, and makeup. It's also so amazing because  $1 for 30 wipes and $2 for 60 wipes, rather then having wipes around 5-7 dollars that don't even work. Plus it works for all skin types,it cannot beat that. I love that they come in variety of choices from cucumber, aloe, green tea, and others. I would totally buy these again.

Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (6)

9. Sexiest Fantasies body mist in Fireworks , its such a perfect body mist for spring season. Its pretty sensual odor. Its just $8 at CVS.

Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (10)  Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (16)

10. Lipsticks:- This spring season I have got some new lipsticks in my stash and have been using them every day.

a. Jordana Matte it Girl

b. Milani Matte Passion

c. Milani Rose Hip

d. Milani Pretty Natural

e. Black Radiance Hibiscus

f. Maybelline Color Elixir in Rose Redefined

Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (12)

11. Nail polishes In spring season I start using all bright orange , pink colors. This season I have mostly used these a lot. I have already posted a Manicure before using the lavender nail polish from Poparazi and glitter.

Forever 21 in purple Clear, WetnWild Blazed Poparazzi in Lovely in Liliac, Essie 1095, Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Big Teal 325 , Essence Ultimate Pink , NYC Grand Central clear coat and Poparazi Cuticle Oil

Chitra Pal Spring Favorites 2015 (14)  

12. Jergens BB Protect and BB Body, in spring don’t need any heavy sunscreen coats, just a sheer protections is good enough. I use this Jergens BB Protect cream which has SPF 15 which is good for over all body. It has sheer color like bb cream but does not change your skin color by any means. It smells really nice. I have already reviewed this on my blog, click here for detailed review.

13. Carmex Vanilla lip balm with spf 15, you always have to protect the lips also from sun. This is a perfect lip balm for spring, as it has sheer vanilla flavor.

Review and Swatches for Wet n Wild Megalast Lipstick– Mocha-Licious 914C

Good Morning Girls,
Today I am back again with one more Megalast Lipstick from Wet n Wild Cosmetics, its called Mocha-licious. This is deep caramel brown color, silky and smooth but still gives the feeling of creamy matte. I love all Lipsticks from WetnWild, this is another gorgeous color, can be worn in most of the seasons.
Chitra Pal Wetnwild Mochalicious (1)
The only thing I don’t like about wetnwild mega last lipsticks are their packaging. It’s little cheap and half of lipstick still hangs on top when you close the lid. You tend to break your lipstick when you close the lid, so be careful.
