I have been trying to take better care of my skin. I decided to write up some beauty rules that make a good solid foundation for your make and beauty routine. These are not specific beauty product tips on the lines of ‘how to put winged eyeliner’ (haha, I have absolutely no clue about that!)….
Tips for Long and Healthy Hair!
Lets talk about hair! As long as I can remember I’ve always wanted long glossy heathy hair. Mostly because my mom had the thickest and most beautiful glossy hair ever seen on a real person. Honestly it was like the stuff you see in magazines, but only her’s was real. But also partly because I spent most…

Sephora? I Would Rather Have a Boots Instead!
Bombay finally has a Sephora. My male friend who does not wear makeup informed me of this fact. So imagine the drama this has created if even he heard about this! Bidisha is as unimpressed as ever – she is usually unimpressed by anything popular and anything you would stereotypically expect a fashion stylist in…
Shaving Myth Busted

Shaving vs Waxing : What is better for your skin?
This is not a question I’ve asked myself often. It has to be done, and we all do it. Over the years I’ve done both – shaving and waxing depending on how much time and money I’ve had to spare on hair removal. Shaving is painless and quick, while waxing is more of an experience,…
Makeup Resolution: How to Start Wearing Makeup
A few years back wearing makeup or learning how to wear makeup was one of my new year’s resolutions. I went and bought some and decided to give it a go. If there is anyone out there interested in starting off with makeup, well, this could be useful read. I started wearing makeup quite late…
