Duration of Use: 2 months plus

Where I purchased it? Bought it from Guardian, Malaysia

Spray the mousse on the area that needs hair removal from a reasonable distance and let it set for 6 minutes. Then, use sponge given to make the hair removal more easier.

Its extra soft formula reduces the risk of irritating the skin and provides perfect results easily and quickly. Enriched with natural Aloe Vera extract (anti-irritant and soothing), it protects and cares for even the most sensitive skins. Dermatologically tested. Without colourings and allergen-free. Use preferably before expiry date written on container.

What I think?

I happened to pass through this product on the shelf a Guardian while buying my usual shaving foam. It comes in a bottle as a mousse that has to be sprayed on the relevant area and it also comes with a small sponge inside its cap. The first time I used it I did not even notice the sponge and I used my hands to help remove the hair. However, this product is really friendly. It smells nice and softens the hair and makes it slide away easily. It is also contains Aloe Vera which is known to be very good for the skin.

Yes. I found that this has done wonders to my skin. Also, makes hair removal much more easier.

Then I use this to cleanse my face to help remove the excess residue. 

After that, I use my normal cleanser. 

And guess what? It works great. 

It helped minimize my pores and also kept my skin clean.

Yes as it targets extra-large pores, regular makeup and acne prone skin.

I personally don’t really like the smell

Yves Rocher - French Manicure Set [Product Review]

YVES ROCHER

FRENCH MANICURE SET

[PRODUCT REVIEW]


By Beauty With Confidence



Product Brand: Yves Rocher

Product Name: French Manicure Set
Contains: French Manicure White Nail Polish, Shiny Pastel Nail Polish, Shiny Clear Nail Polish, Nail File, French Manicure aligning stickers.
Net Weight: 3 x 5.5ml

I bought these products on a Yves Rocher Brochure. Each Nail Polish is sold separately. I bought each of the above to make it a whole set. However, I got the Nail File and the French Manicure aligning stickers for free. And this completed my French Manicure Set. I will be reviewing only the Nail Polish separately. If you want to know the whole procedure I will upload a video so that you can know the step by step of how to complete a French Manicure using all the above products. 

Step 1

Using: French Manicure White Nail Polish - Precision Line

This is very helpful as the brush of this nail polish is angled and makes it easier to draw the tip of your nails for a perfect french manicure. The colour is realy pretty. If you use the right technique 1 coat should be enough. If not, 2 coats might be required.

Step 2

Using: Shiny Pastel Nail Polish - Hardening and beautifying Coat

This Nail polish is very pretty. It transforms the look of your nails in a jiffy. It has a larger brush and takes up a generous amount of nail polish to apply perfectly on your nails.

At times I use it alone, without the whole French Manicure Look as I like the glossiness and neutral feeling that this Nail Polish gives. 

Step 3 

Using: Shiny Clear Nail Polish - Shine enhancing Coat

This nail polish works as the top coat. Its a clear nail polish that make the manicure shinier and definitely completes the look. It also helps to fix the whole Nail Colour to make it last longer. 

I use this top coat on other Nail Polish I normally use as well to help my Nail Colour appear more presentable and last longer.

I bought this set 6 months ago. I am not a big fan of Nail Polish onto my hand nails but i love French Manicure which i wear for different special occasions. This has worked wonders for me and makes it easier for me to do my own french manicure at home. It does not dry very fast and lasts you a long way.

Why Women Wear Makeup?

I am a personal lover of Make Up. I personally developed the love of Make Up when I was about sixteen. Before that, I used to hate makeup a I felt that it needed to much unnecessary effort. Thus, today I wish to share my views while being on both of these far ends.
There are generally two views from the ‘Make Up Haters’ towards the ‘Make Up Lovers’. That is, a positive one and a negative one: “Those ‘Make Up Lovers’ look professional, put together and ready for their day OR “They are try-hards and put too much effort into their appearance.
I was in the negative category at first. I always shared the view of “why not go for the more natural look?” – It was simple, faster and required less effort. However, I changed from being a “Make Up Hater” to a “Make Up Lover”. I developed the liking for Make Up when I perceived it as an art to do on oneself. Now, I am a Professional Make Up Artist.
Today, I will be defending those women who in many ways have turned to be “Make Up Lovers”. Those women choose to wear make up more often than not. I am not saying that those who go for the natural look are not worth defending or praised. But since I am a Professional Make Up Artist and a “Make Up Lover” I wish to talk about this particular side.

1.    We do it for ourselves!
It is perceived that women wear Make Up only to impress and attract men. Well, a question can be asked here. Do women, who are happily married and wear Makeup, also wear it only to impress men? If men would think that then wouldn’t they ban their lovers or wives not to wear Makeup? Well, I personally wear Makeup for myself first. It makes me feel prettier and gives me that extra confidence boost that one needs. This is so because, I don’t feel like heading to work with a sleepy face or going out for a family gathering with dark circles and what not. Makeup usually helps to give you that extra glow you need. Also, I am a camera lover. I love taking pictures. As well as Cameras might capture wonderful moments they do capture imperfections too – such as acne, blackheads, dark circles. Thus Makeup can help to cover them and make one seem flawless in pictures.

2.    Make Up is an Art

To me I feel that “makeup is an art”. When my family & friends used to ask me to do their makeup, I honestly felt more artistic than I have ever felt in my life. Personally, I’ve always felt like my creativity has staggered as I’ve gotten older. However, when I am doing makeup on myself or someone else, I feel like there are no limits. I can try out different techniques without out the fear of it “going to waste” because if you mess up, all you do is start over again. I developed the liking of doing others makeup so much that I even did a Make Up course where I am now a professional Make Up Artist.
3.     It corrects things that we cannot always correct on our own.
Most of my clients have under eye circles, acne or acne scars. With the help of Make Up most of my clients feel prettier and more confident of themselves. They also ask me for advice as to how they can look this way on a day to day basis where I then provide for a 3 day course where they could bring all their products for me to train them in showing them how to apply makeup on themselves and hide the imperfections.
4.     It’s a way to be expressive.
Some girls go for the natural look and others go for the dramatic, sexy look. Either way, I can gage a tiny part of their personality. My sister, who usually never ever goes dramatic, is far more reserved and quiet in a beautiful way. I, on the contrary, always change my looks but I prefer dramatic looks most of the time but that does not contradict me as people say that I am outspoken and crazy. It doesn’t always work in that way, but more often than not, makeup says things about a woman they usually do not say on their own.

Needless to say, you are beautiful whether you choose to wear makeup or not. Don’t feel pressured to wear make up because other women do. Do not wear it because you think you’re at an age where it’s necessary to start wearing it. Wear it because you want to. Wear it as a form of creativity and expression. And really, how can you not be tempted when you walk into one of the makeup stores where all sorts of makeup are at your reach. At the end of the day, we all learn when trying something new.

Simple Feminine MakeUp - Rakshita



This Makeup is an HD Light MakeUp.

It is a full coverage makeup that covers the blemishes and uneven skin tone of the client.

Since the requirement of Ms Rakshita was more of nude tones - we focused in meeting the requirement.

We combined a light eye makeup of champagne colour and brown.

Then, enhanced the cheekbones and focused more more on the eyes than any other part of the face.
