Review: St.Ives Make Up Remover & Facial Cleanser

Saturday, July 19, 2014




On a recent trip to local market, i brought it home with other stuff. I have been st.ives facial scrub since forever now and decided to give this a try as i was running short of my other cleanser. But let me confess , it did not win my heart. Let me tell you why ..

What does it claims ?

Review: St.Ives Make Up Remover & Facial Cleanser

My thoughts:
The moment i open it i knew that i am not going to like it. The fragrance is kind of medicinal. The texture is so greasy and sticky. I tried to massage it on my moist face but it got worse. It did not remove any single traces of makeup. Keeping it in mind that i was not wearing waterproof make up that day. Just a bit of bb cream, kohl and lipstick. It smears kohl everywhere and sticks on my face like i have applied glue or something like that. It was very difficult to remove makeup then.
I don't know why they name it as a make up remover when it is not capable of doing so. It is not worth buying at all, not even as an everyday cleanser. It is so greasy and creamy that i am afraid that it might break me out. I stopped using it after two failed attempts. I lost hope.
In my opinion, this product is not meant for oily or combination skin, may be somebody with very dry skin may find it suitable. But for me its a big no no.

If you agree to the above statement than we are like minds :). I love buying shoes and cannot get enough of them. Today I am showing you my new shoes that I bought online recently.
Lovelyshoes.net sent me a gift card to spend on their website and I selected two pair of shoes. Lets see what I have to say about my experience with them
 

1. Zebra Print Flats Cute Bowknot Flats :
 I love animal prints and keep buying things in leopard , tiger or zebra prints. How can I ignore these flats in gorgeous red color and leopard print. The have written here zebra print but in real it is a sexy leopard print. I guess a typo mistake. The shoes are matches the stock picture provided on their website. Here Is the stock picture:

Shoes are same like stock picture provided. I love this red bowknot details and leopard print on it.


The material is suede and it is well made. I selected size 39 Chinese which is equal to size 38 UK. The shoes fits me well and comfortable to walk in. Some loose threads are visible though.




Sole of shoes are also made neatly and does not slips while walking. You can see in these pictures the quality is good and worth the price you pay for it.You can buy it here for $12.16

My ratings:

2. Fashion Black Wedges Bowknot stitching Sandals :

These wedge sandals are light weight and very comfortable. They sent me size 37 instead of 39 which is a bit smaller on me but I still can wear these and walk in comfortably. I love these shoes. These are made with suede material and well stitched. The buckles fastens easily and bowknot looks very cute.


 




You can buy this pair here for $14.05.

My ratings:
4.5 out of 5

Lovelyshoes.net is an online wholesaler and retailer of fashion accessories. Yes, they do sell dresses, shoes, bags and accessories. They are china based and ships internationally. They have a wide variety of all fashion items. The website is easy to navigate and you can search and browse it according to your specific needs. Customer service is pretty decent and you get response within 24 hours.

Shipping Cost:
The shipping cost is calculated according to weight. Sometimes it is equal to the shoes price or more expensive than the shoes itself. I bought these two pairs for $26.21 and paid $24.00 as shipping charges. They sent me shoes via EMS which took 5 working days to reach here in Pakistan. I also paid customs duty $11 (1100 Rs. Pkr).

Hope that you like this haul post. I really enjoyed writing it. Share your suggestions, feedback in comments below.

Summer Essentials !!

Thursday, July 3, 2014
Hi girls,
Its a blessing that weather is now pretty cool in Pakistan, otherwise it would have been really difficult to fast in summers. Its time to show you what I have been using throughout this summer. I do not use much make up as I have oily skin. I just stick to the essentials and minimum makeup products. These are my holy grail products this summer, I used them religiously :


1. Pond's Pimple Clear White Multi Action Facial Wash :
it really suits my skin, I am loving it lately. Read Review Here

2. Loreal Paris Hydra Total 5 Normal Gel Cream :
I have bought it for the second time. A really good moisturizer for oily skin. Review Here

3. Catrice Blusher duo in Peach Sorbet:
It blends easily, stays put for good 4 hours on my oily skin. The shade is very flattering against my complextion.

4. Garnier BB cream for oily combination Skin:
I am using it in shade medium. loves the coverage and how well it gives me shine free look for hours.


That is all for today. I will not very actively posting during Ramadan as I focus more on prayers. Will resume my blogging activities after Eid , Inshallah
