VLCC's new Enchanting Eyes kajal

Nothing speaks to the world more than your eyes. Whether it is defining them with a single swoosh or experimenting with dramatic winged lines, the kajal is a makeup kit essential. 

VLCC has come up with a new Kajal - The Enchanting Eyes Kajal.

VLCC'S New Enchanting Eyes kajal

What I like about VLCC’s Enchanting Eyes Kajal is that it creates a dark, bold stroke with one single application. It is smudge-proof and waterproof, which makes it last long and gives the dramatic eye effect. 

The brand claims that the VLCC Enchanting Eyes Kajal is dermatologically-tested and enriched with botanical extracts and comes in an easy-to-use retractable stick format.

I have tried both day and night look using the kajal.

What I like about the product - a snapshot:

• Bold dark colour with a single stroke
• Smudgeproof, waterproof and lasts for a very long time
• Easy to use retractable tube
• The tip ensures smooth application

It is priced at Rs.199 and is easily available at all leading pharmacies and stores. It is also available online at www.vlccshop.com.

Take a look at the two looks I created and share your thoughts :)

5 things you should never miss doing in the winters :)

Its January !!Yes, the winter chill is here to stay for some more time. It's that time of the year when you can take out your best jackets and boots and strike your most stylish pose without having to worry about those extra layers of fat you have been trying to lose all the year round. It's the time of cakes, great food, family and good sleep :P

Here are five things you should never miss doing in the winters:

1. Enjoy a steaming hot cup of tea or coffee in the mornings. Nothing can beat this on a winter morning. If you are a chai lover like me, you won't really mind several repetitions of this routine throughout the day :P 

Trust me, they are the best companions! And remember that the best conversations happen during tea time ;)

2. If its winters, you can't ignore your love affair with your blanket and your bed. They make the best soulmates. Winters are meant for sleeping. Only a few things in the world can beat the warmth of your bed and your favourite blanket

                                Blankets and bed :) (Pic courtesy: www.123rf.com)

3. Soups !! They are healthy, spicy, warm, comforting and also keeps you in shape ;) so many advantages in just a bowl. You can't really ignore this !!

4. The lazy winter afternoons spent outdoors soaking in the warmth of a sunny day. Well, that's also the best time to bond with your friends and family. If you are working and don't get to enjoy this luxury everyday(ask me about it !!), you just shouldn't miss this on weekends

5. Cakes, baking and loads of food. It is one season when almost every household indulges in baking and cooking delicacies. Normally the weather conditions throughout the year do not allow too much of experimentation with food and we all tend to go light on spices. But, winter is one season in which you can indulge in good food to your heart's content.
