Review - Huts and Looms, Sustainable and Pure Handwoven Saree

 I love wearing Indian ethnic wear on special occasions or festivals. A Saree is one of my favourite ethnic attire to wear during Puja or family get-togethers. Again in sarees, I have a soft corner for handloom sarees. The beauty and feel of these handwoven slow crafted  sarees are truly mesmerizing. It was Durga Puja time and Diwali is also approaching in few days, hence I thought to buy a beautiful handloom saree to celebrate all these festivals with extra joy.  Huts and Looms Tissue Silk Saree  In case you are wondering what a handloom saree is, then let me tell you in brief. Handlooms are basically handwoven fabrics made on a weaving machine called a loom. Hence, the name comes from HandLoom. It is a slow-crafted process, as it needs the utmost patience, creativity, and physical strength to create a masterpiece. Handloom sarees are generally priced because of this reason. I feel every woman looks graceful, powerful and amazing in a saree. Handloom sarees are repr...

Nelf USA Colossal Eyeliner Blue Sapphire Review and Swatches

The Nelf USA colossal eyeliner comes in a regular pencil form. Initially when I got it, I thought it is a retractable pencil but it's not actually . You have to sharpen it every time which i don't like to do. Another thing is the tip is quite bend kind in mine . i don't know if mine is a defective one or these are like this only. There is no sharpener with this liner which is again a down point. There is an outer cardboard box which has all the info regarding the product.

Shade , Texture , Pigmentation & Staying Ability :

The shade Blue Sapphire is a very pretty vibrant teal green shade . It has very fine shimmers in it which is not harsh on skin yet looking little shiny. I love the colour . The texture is so creamy and soft . It glides on eyelids like butter and doesn't tag or pull. As it is so soft ,you need to be careful while applying otherwise it will break . It gives so smooth and precise application.

The colour is decently pigmented . It looks more vibrant on hand swatch but not look that much brighter  on eyelids. Because of the creamy texture ,it doesn't stay more time on eyes. Means if you have oily eyelids then the staying time is less as compared to dry eye lids. It is not waterproof or smudge proof but also not remove away easily .

Pros..- 

1- Beautiful bright teal green shade
2- Creamy ,soft texture
3- Glides smoothly on eyelids
4- Decently pigmented
5- Affordable

Cons..-

1- Not available easily
2- Have to sharpen each time
3- No sharpener provided along with
4- Not waterproof or smudge-proof .

Rating - 2/5 

Final Verdict - I like the shade but not the packaging . And also we can have better options at this price from other brands too. I won't recommend anyone to try out this range .. 

Hope you found this review helpful. See you in the next post with another exciting topic,till then stay blessed..

xoxo..

  1. I really like the shade too..It's so vibrant and uplifting. Wish it was smudgeproof and water proof too! No point of buying a liner thàt can melt away with heat and come to your cheeks.lol

  3. This Eyeliner seems to have a very good shade though as you mention in actuality there may be a difference when used. But again sharpening the pencil every time is also not very convenient.

  5. The colour seems really good and beautiful but the staying power is too low for me... Also the availability is a big issue! Will give it a miss!

  7. That is a stunning cobalt blue colour. I feel blue eyeliners really suit brown eyes, so I would love to try this product.

  12. Very detailed review I must say ! I too loved the product but the biggest shortcoming is the absence of sharpener. I guess the brand should note down what are the drawbacks.

  18. I loved the shade but since it isn't easy available it gets tricky. There are other brands offering similar shades, will try them instead.

  21. Thanks for the honest review girl. I would skip buying this one as I want smudge proof eyeliner for me

  22. Actually I loved the color! But I guess there are flaws that can’t be ignored too...like it’s not smudge proof or it doesn’t come with a sharpener etc. So need to rethink...

    ReplyDelete
  23. The shade looks nice but if it is not waterproof or smudge proof then i cant wear it often as my eyes are watery so eyeliner or if applied as kajal smudges fast.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I love the color really wanted to get it. I wish that it would be water proof and smudge proof.
