Bonjour ses Cannes 2014

Hello,

The Cannes 2014 is going on in full swing and no doubt its one of the year's biggest glamour party. The gowns, makeup and jewels set the red carpet ablaze with stunning celebrities.

Here are some of the looks I am loving:

1. Kendall Jenner

Kim Kardashian has been rating high on the style meter but Kendall is not behind, after the bespoke Topshop creation at the Met Gala received huge praise she easily glides at the Cannes in Channel looking fresh and immaculate. Just dabb  plum lipstick on your lips with the ring finger to create this clean makeup look

2. Sonam Kapoor

She looked the classic old Hollywood glamour beauty. Soman Kapoor wore Ellie Saab dress and sported a faux bob. Once again the makeup focused on the lipstick with a pinkish tone red everything else is kept understated.

3. Aishwarya Rai

 Aishwarya's arrival was delayed however, she stole the show at the red carpet. She chose a gold Roberto Cavalli dress with a fish tail which accentuates her body so well, she looked divine. More toned and totally made sure the press did not loose her after 12 years attending the Cannes. 

The red lip and flawless skin with the loose hair waves and L'Oreal's Million dollar lashes worked out perfectly with the dress. Even though she wore a dress previously worn by Kristen Chenoweth at the Oscars 2014, Aishwarya made it new and I wouldn't compare at all.

Tell me about your favorite looks!

Drink it up!

Hello,

We all know the importance of drinking lots of water so make it fun, healthy and bring a twist to it.

Add cucumber slices, mint leaves and a few lemon slices into a jar of water and refrigerate (do not refrigerate if you face soar throat). Keep over night and drink it all day.

You can also put just of of the above mentioned ingredients and follow the rest of the steps.

This is a great cooler for the body in summer months. It feels refreshing and will help you achieve that glowing skin and healthier stomach and keeps you hydrated.

It will also give you that skin in which you would need very minimal makeup (you know the no makeup makeup look).

Sun burnt??

Hello,

The summers are scorching at least in my corner of the world, humidity is rising and no sign of rain. It should e impossible for any one getting out of home to go without sun block but myself and I know a lot of people who forget.

So what do you do when you come back sun burnt and have patches of uneven skin tone, redness and burning sensation when you jump in the shower?

Well just take a tomato (before showering), grind it (you can even do it with a fork) and apply it where ever you feel your skin has been burnt. Keep it for 10-15 min and clean, remember not to rub your skin with any towels just pat dry.

Number 2, take a few chunks of watermelon, a few drops of lemon and mashed tomato also helps cure sun burns. Keep for 10-15 mins and clean.

Before getting the worse result (of sun burns) prep your skin 30 mins before going out with good, broad spectrum high SPF 60+ with sunblock. Please, if you live or travel to a hot and humid country remember anything less than SPF 60 will not work. Also if you invest in high end makeup investing in a good sunblock is more than that so save your cash and make the most of it!

Keep summers fresh!

Hello,

Quick tip as summers are here, hydrated skin is ever important, especially with the minimal makeup trend . Just remember to fill a spray bottle with rose water or get hold of The Body Shop's Vitamin E face mist and spray it a couple of times throughout the day. It does not matter how many times a day you do as its just rose water and as soon as you spray your skin will feel fresh!

Keep the bottle in your fridge so you can use it while cooking and take it with you to the beach or outdoor trips. Its nothing harmful and can be sprayed on children's skin as well.

The Body Shop's face mist also boasts to hold your makeup can't say much for that as the spray is not very refined and your skin definitely gets wet so I don't try to use it after my makeup. However, I think it will be good if your skin dries and lines start appearing this will keep it moist.

Style icon: Sarah Jessica Parker

An ode to Carrie Bradshaw (SJP)

A true style icon, Sarah Jessica Parker, also known as SJP was born today (March 25). Almost 4 decades in the industry she has mastered her eccentric fashion sense. Carrie bradshaw, The Sex and the City character that she most famously portrayed also helped her create the icon that she is today.

Take cue from SJP's ombre, trending hot at the moment!



Her makeup is mostly nude lips and heavy coal'ed eyes. As her outfits are usually outstanding keeping her makeup muted is a good choice.

Met Gala 2013 (D&G)

SJP's gown  at the Met gala rocked according to the theme, Punk: Chaos to couture. The head piece was iconic in it self and that confidence always making her place at the red carpet! Latest she has launched a shoe line which is already trending on many shoe lovers lists!

Honey Shrink'up those Pores!

Hello,

Experiencing open pores is not the best feeling in the world. Applying makeup also becomes a misery as layers of it makes the face look cakey and less would just not give a smooth finish. Hence try out a simple D.I.Y I learned, so far its been working for me.

Ingredients:
1 tbsp lemon juice
less than a cup rose water
1/2 cup cucumber juice

Mix and apply on the pores and sit for 10-15 minutes then wash. I recommend cleaning face with this before applying makeup as well (just like a cleanser). It can give a smooth and fresh face. Add moisturizer and do not for get the neck area.

Try day and night like a cleanser and slowly just make it once a day. If you use it as a mask in the beginning you might want to do this everyday and then reduce the use. Also remember to try some good products with it so that your pores are not exposed and are protected. You should be able to see the difference within a month!

Sunblock is very important as heat can make big pores worse so be careful.
