5 Must-Keep Products During Your Winter Travel

So, winters are right here! While some of us want to celebrate it in a cozy way warming up at our homes itself – others might opt for an outdoor, thrill-filled vacation at some picturesque place.

So, here I am going to share five must-have products that should be kept in your bag during your travel for showcasing a beautiful you on your winter holiday. Here you go..!!

1. Handy Moisturiser cum Sunscreen

As winter vacations mean soaking yourself into the sun – do not forget to carry your moisturiser and sun-guard along. The rich moisturiser will deep-moisturize your skin, and a broad spectrum sunscreen with UVA-UVB protection will protect your skin from harmful effects of sun. It will be a messy affair if you pack both the products separately, so try a combination of both that's readily available in the market.

2. Deep-Dark Gel Liner

You must keep a multi-purpose gel-liner with you, which can be used either way – as liners, shadows as well as kohl. These liners are water and smudge-proof, and keep you away from the hassle of retouching the makeup on your outings. So, just glide it as liner on your upper lash-line or fill-in the water-line with it to add extra-sassiness in form of kohl. One can also fill your entire upper-lid, and use it for a smoky-eyed avatar of yours on your vacation.

3. Skin-Purifying Makeup Remover

Despite your extremely busy schedule, make sure that you remove all traces of your makeup before you hit bed of your hotel. This not only lets your skin breathe after the whole day’s hustle-bustle, but will also act as a great pacifier for your mood. So, pack along a quality makeup remover or baby oil, and use it every night for unleashing a route towards youthful skin.

4. A Rich Nourishing Night Cream with AHA, Retinol Content

No one wants to be back from their vacations, looking older than they used to look. Therefore, make sure to take along your regular night creams to hold that wheel of time. These creams are known to slow-down one’s ageing process by working on it for overnight, and are much-needed on your exhaustive vacations. Pat on some AHA or retinol based night creams after removing all traces of makeup at night. It will enhance the production of collagen on your skin, which further boosts the elasticity.

5. Chunky Hair Clips and Bands

Loose and open hair is not recommended on holidays as not only it's messy affair, but can also attract a lot of dirt and dust on your tresses. So, bring those super-in and stylish messy buns to your rescue this winter, and secure it using hair clips, pins or clutchers in vivid and vibrant colours. This will not only keep sweat and hair away from you nape, but will raise your style quotient in as well.

Well, we just hope that these 5 aforementioned 'must-haves' will be of some help for you. Happy Winters ..!!

6 Things You Should Definitely Do This Winter For Healthy And Gorgeous Hair

A wedding in winters is always more cherished as it gives an opportunity to a would-be- bride to adorn herself in her own way.

Here is what you should add to your hair care regime prior to your wedding. So, get ready to discover the secrets to silky, shiny and healthy tresses.

1. Avoid Hot Water

While the idea of having a hot shower in chilling winds may be your favorite, washing hair with such water is not recommended. Our scalp tends to appear dry during winters and washing your hair with hot water can make it turn even drier. Exposure of your hair with hot water can take away the natural moisture from them while making them appear dull and lifeless. Therefore, use lukewarm water for washing your hair in winter to keep the optimum hydration level on your scalp as well as hair, maintained.

2. Indulge into extra-conditioning

Shampooing your hair in winters also takes away natural oil from your hair; so make sure that you continue the hair washing process with extra-conditioning. Use a rich creamy conditioner after every hair wash. Moreover, you can certainly try using leave-in hair conditioners or keratin serums. These are very effective in sealing the moisture content in your hair strands; and hence, are considered the best for winters. And remember, well-hydrated and soft tresses make way for a superb and hassle-free hairstyle on your wedding day.

3. Essential oils and ‘good-old’ massage

All would-be brides dream of possessing long, strong, shiny hair for their D-day. For this, a champi (a thorough oil head massage) can be of great help to your hair. Tea tree essential oil works wonder for nourishing your dry scalp. Also, massaging the scalp with essentials oils, like lavender oil, lemon-grass oil, Moroccan oil, etc., on every alternate day, helps a lot to overcome this problem. You can also combine this essential oil treatment with your regular hot oil treatment (coconut oil, or mustard oil) to achieve better results.

4. Gobble your Nutrients.

Tresses are made up of keratin- a hard protein. Therefore, it becomes important to have a wholesome diet containing necessary nutrients. You should indulge in a diet rich in proteins, biotin, vitamin-D, omega-3-6 for boosting the keratin formation. This diet will nourish your hair and boost the hair-growth.

So, this winter, aim for smoother and shiner hair, by consuming protein and nutrient-rich foods such as; fish, eggs, beans, broccoli, milk and milk products, red meat and more, and be ready for healthy hair from deep-within.

6 Expert Tips To Make Your Makeup Last Longer During Monsoon Season

Monsoon calls for fragrant breeze, dampened meadows, and much more. And, all this makes way for a great time to break the monotony and infuse splendour in your makeup too! But, the rainy season also brings patchy foundation, dripping mascara, smudging lip colour, and unmanageable hair.

Well, to prevent this, use these ultimate melt-proof makeup and beauty tips, to add a new zing to your look this monsoon season.

1. Waterproof base

The rainy season causes humidity in the atmosphere, which leads to sweating and dripping of makeup. Therefore, it is suggested to apply a waterproof base followed by patting on loose powder to set the makeup perfectly on your skin.

Smart Tip : You can also alternatively use a two-way cake as a quick substitute for waterproof makeup during monsoons. A two-way cake can be applied either with a damp sponge or just like a dry loose powder.

2. Ace that blush

It is also recommended to use a powder-based blusher to infuse a natural flush on your cheeks in this season of romance. You can try subtle shades of pinks and peaches, depending on which one suits you the best.

Smart Tip : Blending nicely is the key while using blush-on, for a soft and natural look.

3. Eye basics

Bright colours certainly look more beautiful during monsoons. So, when it comes to eye makeup, you can probably add some spark by using dazzling colours and let your eyes do all the talking. You can use shades such as bright pink, blue and orange.

Smart Tip : Using waterproof eye makeup basics (liner, kohl and mascara) are recommended in rainy weather to save your makeup from dripping away.

4. Permanent makeup effect

If re-touching the makeup of your eyes seems like a fussy-affair to you, go for permanent kajal (kohl) and eyeliner application, and say good bye to your woes. This will last for at least 10 to 15 hours and will keep your eye makeup worries at bay.

Smart Tip : Even if you apply permanent makeup, it will fade away by time. So, to make it last longer, avoid any exfoliation over the makeup area.

5. Neon bright

As neon shades are making their mark in the fashion circuit, they will be a hit during monsoon season too. Different bright shades of red, orange and pink are some of the most popular shades these days. You can use these bright colours to make your monsoon merrier.

Smart Tip : Such electrifying shades look great with neutral ones. So, when you apply a brigh neon-hued lipstick, make sure you keep rest of the makeup nude.

6. Hair woes

It is advisable not to leave your hair loose or open as far as possible. Your hair can get oily by mingling up with the rain-water and sweat, which will make them look tacky. It is best to tie them into a high pony or a mid-rise bun, to beat the heat and humidity. One may also go for a short haircut in order to make a better style statement this season.

Smart Tip : Using hair gels is not recommended because they may cause dandruff and hair fall during damp weather. Also, one should wash their hair regularly to do away with hair problems.

So ladies, keep these these stunning tips in mind this monsoon, and save your makeup from melting away. And, wish you a fun-filled and gorgeous monsoon season!
