Review on my fav nail color

Hey ladies,

Hope u all doing fab ! I will be reviewing my favorite nail lacquer I used recently and loved using!   It is by a brand named zoya and shade name toby.

It is a gorgeous shade of pink , not too neon or too subtle .. just d right barbie pink !! This brand isnt available in India yet and I got mine ordered online from purplle.com .So ladies, if you are looking for international brands not launched in india yet, check out the website www.purplle.com .

Coming back to the polish , they claim to be professional nail lacquer , the kind used in fancy nail spas /salons. So I started by using a sheer base coat (its a must before applying polish to prevent your nails from turning yellow )and then applied two coats of this pretty pink polish .I noticed that after drying , it dint give out great shine compared to OPI polishes but had amazing intensity and lasting power . It stayed put for a week .The swatch attached is taken after a week so you can imagine.So if u prefer glossy nails , do follow it up with a sheer topcoat.

Priced at rs.450 +shipping it costed me about rs.550 /- I consider it as a great buy because it doesn't dry up in the bottle after a long time like the local drugstore brands.

Hope u enjoyed reading this post .

DIY gelatin hair lamination (Russian secret to shiny hair)

Hey everyone ,

I hope you all having a fab day .Today im going to be giving away a russian secret to smooth shiny hair .This Do -it -yourself hair mask is very easy and gives the most amazing instant results that would leave you impressed.

So, all we need is :-
1) a pack of gelatin (im using jellos , easily available in any drugstore).
2) hot boiling water.
3) your favorite hair mask (im using wella enrich mask ps. Its brilliant girls ).
4) dye application brush

Now , lets start with the procedure.Wash  your hair with your favorite shampoo and do NOT condition. Take a glass bowl and take about 2-3 tbspn of gelatin powder. Then add hot boiling water , about 5-6 tbsp to the gelatin powder. Mix it well . The gelatin will dissolve well in hot water . This quantity I have given is for my long hair so you have shorter hair you could use much less in 3; 1 ratio . (More of water less of gelatin).let it cool for about 5min.

Now add some of your favorite hair mask about 2 spoons and mix it well .it should be of thick , runny consistency .Use a dye application brush to apply the mask sectionwise to the hair only and NOT scalp and then pin up your hair .Attached is a pic of how the mask looks after all the mixing .

Leave for about 20min and use an old towel to wrap your hair in .The mask is more effective with doing this step.

Rinse your hair well . First with warm water to melt down all the gelatin and then with cold water.

Let it dry naturally .It will leave you with super shiny hair. Attaching a picture of how my hair looks after the procedure.
