10 Tips for a Hassle-free Salon Experience + My New Haircut :D

Deepika
Recently I got my curly locks chopped off!Why? Because the heat was killing me an my poor hair was turning dry and limp so I had to get my hair cut and it isn’t easy maintaining decently long,thick curly hair when you are a school teacher!

Before

So I went in for the usual one which I always get done: A layer cut for the hair at the back and feather cut in front. It took me a long time to find out what kind of a haircut would suit me and I’ve gone through major disasters in the name of “experimenting”.

Maybelline Dream Matte Powder: Review

Why would someone with dry skin buy a matte powder is what anybody who has read my previous posts on how I have extreme dry skin will ask. But let me tell you that even the driest of the dry skin tend to turn a little oily in the T-zone during summers! My nose and that part of the forehead just above the starting of my eyebrows and my chin have turned oily this summer (there is a first for everything you know!! :P)

Blossom Kocchar Aroma Magic Under Eye Gel: Review

Deepika
Dark circles are an issue for most of us. Late last year thanks to dark circles I always looked like a raccoon (when I wasn’t wearing a concealer that is but it was still bad!).  Fine wrinkles had also started appearing in the undereye area.  Wearing glasses only made things worse! So I was on a mission to find an under eye cream. I was clueless since I had never had the need to use one till then. But I was very sure I didn’t want something which was harsh or something with too many chemicals in it.

 


I bought the Blossom Kocchar Aroma Magic Under Eye Gel  at Health and Glow at a whim. I was in a desperate need of a product which would make my dark circles disappear and it had all natural ingredients so I didn’t think twice before picking this up. Did it work for me? Read on to find out.

The Nature’s Co: A Bad Customer Service Experience

Deepika
Trust is like a broken mirror. Once it breaks it is difficult to put it back together. I know I’ve started off on a very serious note but it is important in this context of selling products close to the expiry date to customers.
 
A few days back I had a store review on The Nature’s Co and I had mentioned that the customer service was excellent. Guess what! It turned out sour later on. Read on to know why.
