The Body Shop Japanese Cherry Blossom EDT : Review

Every girl should have one good perfume, and if you are lucky then many many more ;) Keeping that in mind I firmly decided to get myself atleast one back in 4th year of college (yes, I did not own a single perfume before that..shame).

Two Maybelline Color Sensational High Shine Lip Glosses, Plum Luster and Mirrored Mauve : Review

Fabindia Clove Gel Face Pack : Review

Most of us have been through that phase when it seemed like our skin had a mind of its own. A few have successfully conquered that phase and some are still battling it.

Ponds BB+ Cream : Review

Everytime I get a different BB cream I tell myself that this would be the last one, because they all are pretty much the same. But then a new one gets lauched that claims to do so much more and before you know it, you are heading to the nearest store to get it! When the Ponds BB Cream came out, it had...

DIY Coffee Scrub For The Body

You must remember my last Hooked Onto post. I promised you all that I would tell you what more you can do with the coffee powder and it's about time that I did.
