Colourpop Super Shock Eyeshadows

I love eyeshadows till death parts us. I have a whole lot of adrenaline rush when I see, read or even think of eyeshadows. Unfortunately, I don't own a whole lot of eyeshadows. I don't even own a single palette or a quad. That's mainly because either I don't like the assortment of colours or the price and even the presence of parabens makes me cross off a palette/quad from my list. Hence, I am more on collecting single eyeshadows. Making my own palette is expensive but that way I exactly know what colours I will use and buy according to my taste. Colourpop has become a sensation. Be it the Super Shock Eyeshadows or Lipsticks, every girl needs them in their vanity. And why not? They are super affordable. Although Colourpop ships to India but I decided to get a few eyeshadows from an Instagram seller when they were on sale. The two shades I got are Wattles and Weenie.

The eyeshadows come in white pot with transparent lid and "Colourpop" written on it. The bottom of the pot has the shade name, quantity etc mentioned on them. The outer box is a white one and nothing fancy or over the top. The pots are pretty big for 2.1grams of product.

Review:
These eyeshadows are love. The best thing about them is that they work better with fingers. So, they are apt for beginners. Wattles feels very soft to touch and Weenie almost feels like it is molten (kind of wet). Both of these are have great pigmentation and stays put on the eyes for very long. Weenie doesn't have any kick back but Wattles has some kick back which is very minor though. They don't crease even without a primer, which is a striking feature of these shadows.

Pros:
  • Excellent pigmentation
  • Not powdery and no kick back
  • Stays on for 8 hours even without a primer
  • Blends very easily and no creasing
  • Leaves no stain when removed
  • Easily available
  • Paraben free
  • Cruelty free
Cons:
None...

Final Verdict:
They are my most favourite eyeshadows among what I have. They have excellent formulation and an amazing shade range to cater to every girls' needs.
I bought these two for Rs. 1045 during a sale from an Instagram seller called "adoremakeup16".

(Left: 1 swipe     Right: 3 swipes)   Review: Would you be in shock if I say that I use this kohl pencil as a brow pencil? I seriously do it. The texture is waxy enough to be used as a brow pencil. It isn't the smoothest kajal pencil but better than those which crumble on account of their softness. Hence, I use it

Suncros Aquagel SPF 26 Review

Hello everyone. Today I'm going to review a sunscreen which is the Suncros Aquagel Sunscreen with spf 26. Of late I am only using products that are paraben free. As most of you know, paraben is a class of compounds that are used in cosmetics as a preservative. Although parabens help to keep our makeup and skin care products bacteria free, however it is said cause hormonal disturbance in our body. Hence, I prefer to be on the safer  side. I have used sunscreens from Lakme, Lotus, Khadi, Neutrogena and they all contain paraben. The Khadi sunscreen claims to be paraben free but I don't like its texture. On much research and consultation with a dermatologist I came across Suncros sunscreen. Suncros Aquagel Spf 26 Now, Suncros has many variants of sunscreens. You can find both cream and gel formulae sunscreens. Although this one has the term "gel"  in it, but the texture is actually that of a cream.  Packaging:   The sunscreen comes in a cubical c
