Instagram Tut!!!
Yesterday's makeup emphasized on the eyes. Btw for the curious, all these pics are taken on a Sony Xperia ZR phone in Auto setting. Afterwards I just do a bit of retouching using the 'Cymera' application and post it on Instagram (which is why the name Instagram Tut). There is minimal retouching that happens and of course the light is very bad and unforgiving which is why the person in real looks way different in the pictures.
Anyways, the theme of the makeup was bold eyes gone soft. There is a very thin line between the eyes looking soft or stark in such a look. I loved to create a cut crease with a purple and blend it ever so slightly to create softness. Rest of the face had a peaches and cream glowing radiance....
So lets see what products were used.................

Today's look was all about looking surreal and enigmatic. Doesn't Prerna look a bit like Jennifer Lopez in this pic? To give justice to her amazing teal blue Sisley top, I did a makeup that would not only pop but also be subtle at the same time (especially in the dreamy 5 star hotel lights)....Strategic highlighting on the face gives that effect as if a spotlight is on the face and thats what we achieved today.
So lets have a look at what products were used today.......

Apologies for the bad lighting of the pic though. Today's makeup was just about looking bright and flawless and some stuff done hither thither. Prerna could not get over the hangover of yesterday's glitter so we used it today with a haphazard conglomerate of eyeshadow colors....luckily the result was amazing..
Lets see what products were used for the look........

The eyeshadow swaps - Pilot Post
This is a silly theme of makeup that I chose. Eyeshadow swap means, in one look a specific eyeshadow color will be on the lid while other is in the crease and in the second look it shall be vice versa. This is a very contemporary makeup style and looks like it must have been in the 80s.
For the looks that shall subsequently follow this post, I have used two of my absolute favorite palettes. On the left is Tom Ford Eyeshadow Quad in Cognac Sable with a lot of coppery tones and gorgeous coppery red glitter eyeshadow. While on the right is Guerlain's Velours D'Or in their famous honeybee pattern which I absolutely love. So for the eyeshadow swap looks (which can be done separately or even together just for the sake of fun at a party) I used the deep purple and the coppery brown and swapped them on the lids and in the crease. Its quite fun as to how they came out and I really loved the effects.
In succession to this post, I shall be doing some more of these interesting posts (at least I find them interesting and hope you do so). So lets see a bit of this eyeshadow swapping before the tutorials follow...........

Today's look was inspired by a bit of 80s...With ultra glamorous makeup that is loud from all the aspects we had a lot of fun conjuring this up. Ok!! Unfortunately my camera did not pickup the beautiful glittery nuances of the eye makeup. I used the Makeup Forever Diamond Powder in an incredibly beautiful shade. Imagine a coppery bronze glitter with flecks of sky blue, silver, aqua green and lilac. Its a beautiful multicolored glitter and I couldn't help putting some on Prerna's eyes....
So lets see how this look was achieved, products wise....

Today's makeup look was about looking glamorous. The makeup had to be seen and still look seamlessly blended while the eyes were smoldering (pardon the brow. The Rimmel brow pencil is not upto the mark it seems.) and the lips were stained in a strawberry like stain. The inspiration of this look was a drop of water on a lotus leaf (maybe in the day or night). The colors were very marsh like and lotus blossom with a touch of pearl on the centre of the lid which really looked glamorous in person.
The green on eyes, the peach on lips and the strawberry on lips created a lethal combination. I shall be doing a quick tut of the eye makeup as well and may be a step by step tutorial in one of the posts as this is one look I have never attempted.

New Best 5 of Brands - Branded Brushes (found in India and online sites) Part ONE - FACE
I have always been asked about the best brushes one could buy in India and on online shopping sites that send these brushes to India through free or paid shipping and I hope I shall be able to give my best 5 brushes. Now I am putting this into some sub categories so that I can put in extra brushes which are really fantastic. There are some of these brushes which I may not own for now, but I have seen them with colleagues and friends and models and clients et al. These brushes are in the hit list most wanted section of my WISH LIST.
So lets have a quick look on my favorite brushes that could be found in brands in India....Note - I am not aware of any Sephora India brushes and I have never used them to give my verdict. If anyone has great opinions about these brushes do let me know in the comments.

Instagram Tut - Look of the Day!!
Today's Instagram tut was inspired by the lovely and beautiful Rohit Bal ensemble. An eclectic mix of white and burgundy is what made this simple number a stunning one and I am so aware of the Rohit Bal taste.
A soft metallic eye is a good option to bring in some shine while keeping the complexion radiant and rosy. Thats what we planned and did. And here are the essential products used....

The Wish List
I am changing the 'Must Buy' list title to 'Wish List' as the wish list is getting bigger and bigger by the day. There are so many products just pouring in the market as if what and its so difficult to cope up with them, both financially and mentally. This August, again there have been some fantastic launches and Beauty Traveller plans to take an entire day off just to browse through them and see which ones are kick the brain and which get kicked.
This is my Wish list for August, irrespective of the new launches.....

Today's makeup was a bit unplanned. Due to hectic schedules, improper rest and chaotic diet and skin care regime, the skin does get parched and goes for a toss. Due to this I had to do some strategies and get the skin sorted.

Review : Clarins White Plus Range
Clarins India was kind enough to send me this range of products to use and give my honest opinions about the range. Since I have been an avid and ardent user of Clarins, this was a fantastic gesture from the company. I have used a lot of products from the brand previously and White Plus range has always excited me. The White Plus range is full of products that help combat unevenness and signs of pigmentation and help reveal a flawless and radiant complexion. Targeted for the Asian skins who are prone to deeper pigmentation and do not like it, this is one of the most sought after ranges in the market.

Review : Oriflame MORE by Demi Moore lipstick - Hollywood Red
Oriflame signs the ultra-amazing Hollywood Actress DEMI MOORE whom I am a very big fan of. She got a lovely capsule collection of bags, signature fragrance and makeup called More by Demi Moore. Although I have been purchasing Oriflame a lot (since 2005 I am a non active consultant) and putting the products directly into my bridal/photoshoot kit, I decided to review this product and see whether it was worth the iconic status Demi Moore brought to the brand.
Since I bought just one shade to begin with, I wanted to choose the one which Demi wore and that was Hollywood Red, a lovely bright siren red color.
