Me and Avene Thermal Spring Water

It was during my second semester exam preparation gap when suddenly the door bell rings and it was a delivery guy who asked me to sign the paper and gave me my package.. Without having any clue i opened the package and found out that it was my Prize from winning a contest held on Instagram by Beglamrs... and have found out they have sent me Three of Avene products.

To be really honest i don't have any idea how these products really are only did i know is that it's a FRANCE based company. But after getting the package i asked my Best Friend Mr.Google :) about the particular products. The descriptions given on Thermal spring water makes me feel like this is what my skin really needs. Without doing some research on this product via reading its reviews in blogs and Youtubes i have decided to use it otherwise i am very particular about the product i use specially face products.

MY TAKE

It's been three months i have been using this product and trust me it's too good.. Specially during hot and humid weather when my face becomes as red as tomato and in reaction to which my pimple starts popping out with no doubt but thankfully i have Avene Thermal spring water to my rescue. The spring water starts healing my face really fast. It makes my face feel cool and because of its cooling effect it protect me from skin redness and pimples in particular. Not only that it gives a glow on my face.

HOW I USE

I pat dry my face after Cleaning and spray the product all over my face and leave it for 2-3 mins and then i follow with my regular moisturiser and make-up.. once i am done with makeover i spray the Thermal spring water lightly because as mentioned by company it helps to set up Make-Up and it really does....

In between my day out when my skin feels uneasy and redness i use the product immediately. It acts like a one man army and try showing effect immediately.

HOW TO CREATE DAILY MINIMAL MAKEUP LOOK.

Girls without makeup is........................

I don't know what Girls without Makeup is like but we really are so incomplete without it. Be it a stroke of our fav eyeliner, lipstick, mascara or anything alike.

For daily look specially for college students The Minimal Makeup suits best and it is easily wearable within a short period of time.

If you are beginner you should begin with the Minimal makeup and enhance your look because 'If you never try you never know' Once you get to know how to do the basic minimal makeup only then jump on to more professional ways otherwise you will end up making yourself like a scary Doll :)

GET THE MINIMAL MAKEUP LOOK

1: Apply your favorite BB Cream all over your face and blend it nicely with your finger tips (make sure your fingers are clean)

2: Use eye premier to cover your darkcircles around your under eye and upper lids area. Blend it with your finger tips.

3: With a soft Brush apply compact all over your face and neck areas, it will help you create matte look and it controls oil.

4: Draw your eyebrow with eye brow pencil or eyeshadow that suits your haircolor or a shade lighter. Make sure you press the pencil lightly on your brows and protect it from touching the skin of your eyebrow. Once it's done comb it with the eyebrow brush inorder to clear the excess.

5: Using Eye-liner be it Gel/liquid/Pencil draw your upper and lower eyelid. For Beginners Pencil liner works the best.

6: To make your eyes attractive apply Mascara. It will make your eyes look attractive. Use eyelash curler if you really want to but i won't recommend it to Beginners.

7: Apply any lipstick color or your choice... For daily look nude and pretty pink works best. Since Nude lips makes me look weak i substitute it with various orange and pink shades. and when in doubt i simply apply Red lip liner and blend it my fav TBS LIP BALM

8: Do a last touch up with the same compact you used at the begining and look at the mirror now....You are Ready

These are the products that i use


My wide range of Mascaras(I am not crazy)

TIPS

-If you aren't applying eyeliner just apply hell lot of mascara coat and make your lips shade more vibrant with colors like Dark Red, Pink, Bright Orange etc something very bright.

-If you are going heavy on eye with winged eye, dark upper and lower lids then you can step out with a balm on your lips because your eyes says it all..

-If you are going heavy on both eyes and lips then keep your accessories minimal...

CERTAIN POSES THAT DOESN'T SUITS MEN.

SORRY NOT SORRY BOYS, but TBH there are certain poses that really doesn't suits men and further it makes you look more beautiful and girly that you don't needed to be called as.

Since the #selfie revolution has hit the world of internet beyond the height, uploading pictures on various social networking sites became more popular specially with the rise of instagram users :) and these days there are large number of uploads from men as well. Have to admit the fact that women are blessed when it comes to the matter of posing infront of camera, she looks pretty when she poses with smile and does finger peace, she looks sexy with her pout, she looks gorgeous flaunting her hair, she looks hottest showing her backless dress,croptop or any short dress or a shorts in particular but sorry boys you have very less options but with the lesser options available you can still manage to look handsome and cool only if you know there are certain specific girls like poses you should avoid.

1.CUTE POUT Pouting is fine if you know how to play it right, but many guys go wrong and end up looking like a girl. When you pout you shouldn't smile it will make you look cute, instead pout while keeping your eyebrows tight and don't let your eye Speak, just keep it simple, it will make you look sharp and cool.

2.SAY NO TO PEACE Its fine if you are below 16yrs and if you are 16+ and shows your PEACE SIGN FINGER infront of camera you are most likely to be considered as a sugar boy.

3.CROSSING LEG IS NOT FOR YOU you will end up looking like you are about to pee and you just can't control :)

4.BENDING YOUR NECK it will make you look pretty and cute, try it and lemme know ;)

5.BELFIE isn't for you Belfie aka Butt selfie isn't for you because we know most of you are so flat to be taken a belfie and if you still try to then its going to be your weirdest pose.(Don't try) and I just can't imagine.

WEIRD FACE SUITS BOTH MEN AND WOMEN and that's a new trend :)

until next time keep clicking.

(P.S- it's all my own opinion and I hereby declare that my post doesn't in anyway hurt any individual or a society morally and physically!!)

much love
