Spring Summer Essentials - Elle18 Nail Pops

Elle 18's new Nail Pops - Love Health N Beauty

Spring and summers are all about vibrant colours. Nature is in its full glory these days. So, why should our looks be far behind ? 

If you ask me, I find summer months very hard to endure due to the heat and humidity in Kolkata. It completely drains off all my energy. On such days, it is important to keep charged up as you go about doing all your daily chores at home or at work. Therefore, I take inspirations from the littlest things around me - I dress up in soothing pastel shades, sip on fresh juices, try vibrant nail colours and some nice lipsticks.


I recently came across Elle 18's new nail pops in nice vibrant shades.The colours and the packaging were a delight to the eyes. The brand is known for its affordable quality makeup in a cool packaging. Their nail polishes were a hit with me since my teenage years. Therefore, when the brand sent me the new products, I was very happy to see they are revamping their packaging and products to keep their customers happy.

Every girl would be familiar with Elle 18's nail polishes. Their new collection is a revamped version of that. What strikes you at first is the change in packaging - they now have a square bottle with their signature graphics on it. Easy to store 👍 

The colours were not too different from their previous collection but I saw some nice pastel shades. The colour payoff was good. You get the perfect shade with 2-3 swipes. Its been a week since I have them on my nails, and they are still doing good. 👍

I wish they soon come up with some matte shades too. That will a bonus!

Price - Rs.50 for 5ml.

I will soon be putting up a video review of the product. Please check out:

Valentine's Day on a Budget

Youngsters and the young at heart ones, Valentines's Day is here.

Though all of us feel that one day is not enough to show your loved ones how much they mean to you, it doesn't hurt to make the day special for them.

I am sure all of us have already done some research online to look for ways to surprise your loved ones. But, the options might have been a little too expensive. What's more disappointing is that even though you spend on them, the products lack that extra personal touch.

Here I am listing some inexpensive yet special things you can do for your loved one to make those moments memorable.

1. Surprise them with a meal : Have you seen the look on your parent's face when you last cooked a meal for them? Indeed, it's priceless. How about recreating those moments for them this Valentine's Day. If you are the kinds who has never entered the kitchen, try youtube for some easy recipes and it won't look like rocket science anymore ! 😋😋😋

2. Flowers never fail to show their magic :There is nothing more beautiful than saying it with flowers. Unfortunately, they are not an inexpensive option anymore, especially the ones available online. Try looking for your favourite flowers in your local markets and I am sure you will get a much better deal. Learn some bargaining tips as well. 😜

3.A fishbowl: How about a pair of goldfish swimming in a fishbowl. Perfect, I would say ! Simple, inexpensive and something people will remember for a long time to come 😊

4. Recreate the magic with old, unused things :  Use the old wine or rum bottles creatively.  Pinterest is flooded with so many ideas. You could try pasting your pictures on the bottle, paint and make a lamp, make a message bottle...put on your thinking caps and get going.

5. Go old school: There is nothing that will surprise your girl more than a handwritten note. Go that extra mile and make a scrapbook of your favourite pictures and stories of your unforgettable moments.💓💓

Remember, the moments are cherished forever. :)

Happy Valentine's Day to all my readers !
