Kronokare Provencal Lavender Bath & Body Products

Kronokare is a brand that hit the Indian market sometime last year. They have a range of  affordable SLS and paraben-free products. I am sharing my views on their Provencal Lavender range.

Lavender is known as a disinfectant for the scalp and skin. It also helps relieve nervous tension, and  enhance blood circulation.

The Provencal Lavender range has 5 products all containing the goodness of Lavender and all of them are SLS free & Paraben free. People are increasingly awareness of SLS & Paraben free products and it is good to see a brand coming out with an entire range of such skin-care and hair-care products.

Each product has a unique name - like the Shower Gel is called 'All is Well', the shampoo is called 'Repair the Hair', the hair conditioner is called 'Care to Repair', the soap is called 'Raise the Bar', and the body lotion is called 'Smooth(ening) Operator'

Madam Glam - Sea-Swing-and-Sun, Mint Cocktail, and Flirty Mood - Review, Swatches

Its share a new polish time! Well today I have swatches of 3 polishes from Madam Glam (a US based company). Madam Glam polishes come in cute tall bottles with a nice logo on the front. The shade names are written on the bottom of the bottle.

I have three shades to share. The first one is a lovely pale blue color called Sea, Swing and Sun. I did a nail art using this pale blue with the other vibrant bright shade I tried called Mint Cocktail. Mint cocktail is a neon green with a velvet matte finish - its like a creme but matte if you know what I mean.

I think these two polishes would be great for some Easter nails. I used them to create tiny hearts on a white base.

The third shade I tried is called Flirty Mood. This is a pale lavender actually but looks more light pink in the pictures. The thumb nail swatch is more accurate. This is a great shade to wear every day and also serves as a wonderful base for nail art.

The Week That Was

What a week it has been. Life has been crazy this past week but I did manage to share with you a part of my life through my posts. Here is a little summary in case you missed out something.

There was a tutorial on how to hide a gray strand of hair right before a party. A very easy and handy tip to save you at the last minute. Read How To Cover A Gray Strand of Hair

Next up was a post on my favourite nail paint. The brand and this particular shade is my all time favourite. To know why and take a look at the swatches check out Sally Hansen 260 So Much Fawn

Then came a dud product, something I had high hopes with but which failed to impress - Patanjali Saundarya Face Wash Review

And then something straight from my heart - a water colour which I call The Unborn

I followed this with a review on another great product from Tvam Naturals - Tvam Lavender Ylang Ylang Sunscreen

And finally my favourite fragrance - something I ought to have reviewed ages ago but better late then never - something you girls will love - Adidas Fruity Rhythm Eau De Toilette

How did your week go? Which of the above products have you tried and which post was your favourite? Do leave your comments and make my week come to a nice end :)

TVAM Lavender Ylang Ylang Sunscreen Review

Sunscreens don't suit my facial skin and always cause me to break out. That is why I limit the use of sunscreens only to my arms and feet. Today I am going to review a sunscreen that is non-sticky and gives a very fresh feeling.

TVAM naturals Lavender Ylang Ylang Sunscreen is what I tried out recently.

What the company claims
"Lavender & Ylang-Ylang Sunscreen Lotion with a sun protection factor (SPF) of 15 shields and protects your skin from UVA/UVB/Infrared rays, which may contribute to skin damage and premature aging. Exposure to sun can lead to serious sunburns, wrinkles and pigmentation. Thus, this lotion is ultra effective if used liberally before stepping out in the Sun as it prevents sunburns, keeping skin soft and smooth too. The powerful natural extracts help to protect, soothe and hydrate the skin."
