Relax and rejuvenate with the three-in-one Air Wick room freshners

Air Wick, the famous air care brand from the house of RB India (Previously known as Reckitt Benckiser), has come up with the first-ever—AirWick Life Scents range with 3 evolving fragrances in 1 spray.

Unlike other room fresheners which give you one fragrance, this new offering gives you the benefit of enjoying 3 different refreshing fragrances with a single application. 

What the brand says about the product:

The collection of three fragrances in one spray gives consumers a unique experience to refresh their homes with different aromas. Air Wick Freshmatic has three-time interval settings allowing consumers to have control over the fragrance level. At a medium setting, it is released every 28 - 30 minutes. By setting the device to a low setting it lasts for up to 60 days.

The latest Air Wick Life Scents range offers 5 fragrances in both Freshmatic and Aerosol sprays. Each variant is an assortment of 3 scents. Allow your mind to escape to a Summer Delight, with its fresh joyful fragrances of Vanilla, Melon & white Flowers. Similarly, surround yourself in the untouched beauty of a Turquoise Oasis with scents of sun bleached driftwood, salty sea spray, and warm breeze.

What I felt about the product:

I used the Lush Hideaway variant- the wild berry, coconut water and fresh mint infusion. It gave the room a nice fruity fragrance the moment I used it. You can easily see the particles diffuse into the air in seconds and fill the air with a certain freshness. The fragrance became a little light the next time I entered the room while the aroma lingered on till I felt asleep. I had used it in my bedroom the moment I stepped in after a hard day at work. The perfume worked wonders for my stressed mind and rejuvenated my senses.

The bottle is a smart looking one with an easy application trigger. 

The complete Air Wick Life Scents range is available at major retail stores in the country. While Aerosol Sprays are available at Rs. 249 for 210 ml and refill of 250 ml is priced at Rs. 299, the complete Freshmatic (1 Freshmatic Automatic spray + 1 refill) is available at Rs. 550.

I would totally recommend this product if you like fragrances and love coming to a nice smelling home :)

Enjoy your favourite shows on the go with TataSky+ Transfer

After a busy day at work, all you need to do is relax, doing all you favourite things. For me, the best stress buster is sipping on a nice cup of green tea and watching my favourite TV Shows or watching a nice rom-com. 

But on most days when I come home, I usually find my mom enjoying her favourite soap opera or my dad enjoying a game of cricket or football. Though I crib a little and do coax them to switch over to the programmes I want to watch, I do feel bad that they do not enjoy what they are being forced to watch. I guess all people staying in nuclear families face the same situation. For us, viewing TV is a time we share our day's experiences together and deliberately, there is just one set at home.

Therefore, I watch my favourite shows on the go. My time to watch the shows that I enjoy is when I  take a bus to work. It usually takes me more than an hour to reach work and the morning ride is quite irritating. I worry about reaching late, think about the day's workload, make a few calls and get extremely irritated when the bus is stuck in traffic. But I recently discovered the best way to keep cool is to watch rom-coms and TV series on my way. Now whenever I have a stressful day ahead, I  try and store some nice movies on my phone and watch them on my way.

Tthe problem is that the most recent episodes of my favourite TV shows are not always available online. Yes, there is also an issue of piracy, which on most occasions I do not support.Transferring content to my phone has also been a task. I usually download content on my laptop and desktop, which, off course takes a lot of time. Then the content has to be transferred to my device. 

But Tata Sky's new offering TataSky+ Transfer makes it easy for you. Now you can directly record the content from your TataSky+ Transfer Set box and transfer them directly onto your device through wi-fi. Since you are directly recording from your TV set, the whole issue of piracy is taken care of. The latest episodes and shows are all at your fingertips. You don't have to surf through hundreds of websites to find the content you are looking for. Now you can easily stream content on your phone without having to wait for hours for the content to download and then the hassle of transferring it your phone.

The best part is, you get the best resolution and HD recording with this device. With 500GB of hard disk storage, you can store your favourite series and movies for a long time and watch it according to your convenience.

Vivel Cell Renew's New Micellar Make Up Clenser

We all love make up but it is extremely important to get rid off it at the end of the day. Cleaning off the layers can be big challenge and some products can be extremely stubborn. If even a little bit of make up is left behind overnight, it might lead to dark spots on your skin.

To combat all of these problems while taking of your skin in a gentle manner, Vivel Cell Renew has come up with a make-up cleanser with the unique mixed-micelle technology. This single phase, oil free, rinse-free cleanser effectively removes make-up and maintains the moisture level in skin.
Vivel Cell Renew, ITC's leading skin care leading skin care brand has become immensely popular amongst the ladies and has won our confidence over the years.

The liquid like remover is quite light in texture and will not bother you even if you have oily skin. The moisturizing effect of the cleanser stays on for some time and does not dry out your skin.

5 Healthy yet delicious breakfast options you must try

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day but is also the highly ignored one. We all are in a mad rush to reach our offices on time and often skip breakfast or make do with packaged breakfast options like cereals. Though cereals are also extremely healthy, yet you have to compromise on the taste factor for it. If someone gives me an option of having cereals everyday, I would no doubt choose the option of skipping breakfast :P

Here I have listed some of my favourite healthy breakfast options that your should definitely try. And the best part is, they are ready is less than 15mins :P

1. Dosas: Loaded with the essential nutrients to give the right start to your day, dosas top my list. I know it is not easy to make dosas at home, but as with life in general, practice will make you perfect in this art. The readymade dosa mixes are already here to make your life simpler. With the mixes, all you need to do is mix it with water or curd and your dosas will be done in minutes.

2. Upma: Yet another favourite breakfast option from down South, you can give it your favourite twist according to your preference. Though there are readymade mixes available for upma as well, I prefer making it from scratch without the help of any ready to eat pack. And believe me, it still takes me just 10mins to prepare this flavorful dish on any workday morning. I sometimes replace suji with oats as well.

3. Pasta: Not really a breakfast option, but I still love it for my breakfast especially on a sad Monday morning. :P My pasta recipe is extremely healthy without the use of unnecessary cheese, cream or butter. Yet it turns out extremely delicious. You can add chicken, egg and veggies to give your meal an extra protein punch. Read the recipe here: http://lovehealthnbeauty.blogspot.in/2014/11/pasta-quick-chinese-style-recipe.html

5. Oats or Besan Cheela:  Cheelas are popularly known as the vegetarian omelettes. They are extremely healthy, being made of besan and oats which are loaded with protein and fibre. Only thing which you need to keep in mind is the usage of oil while frying your cheelas. I use a non-stick pan and do not use more than 1teaspoon oil to cook my cheelas.

Bird Bracelet from Myesha

I specifically liked one Bird bracelet from their collection and a neckpiece in German silver. The bird bracelet was doubled up as a bracelet during the recent RakshaBandhan festival. But the simple yet unique design stands out as a bracelet as well. Priced at Rs.150, the bracelet in german silver can be worn on work days and dinner dates as well. It is extremely elegant and will complement any dress.

The neckpiece is an elegant piece which will go quite well with any of your ethnic outfits. Beautifully engraved with green stones, the neckpiece is sure to extra element of style to any regular outfit. Priced at Rs.400, the neckpiece is super affordable.
