Product Review: Ponds white beauty cream.

Hello Gorgeous people,
         If you live in Pakistan and especially if near the coastal areas of Pakistan then i am sure you must have heard about the new ponds white beauty range. Its not that new but the low price range products they launched just before the summer this year has been hyped about a lot lately. So here is my review,


What is it?  It is a whitening cream.

How is it used? I use it as a tinted moisturizer by adding a hint of my foundation to it.

What’s good about it?  It gives you an extremely nice and matte finish. Soaks up all the oil. And set s your makeup for hours.

What’s bad about it? Does nothing for the spot removal or whitening.

How does it feel? Smooth & Soft

How well does it open? The jar opens well.
compact packing


How is the packaging? I kinda like it. But i have hygiene issues. So i either have to use a hand sanitizer every time i use it or i take the product out with a q tip.

How big is it? 16 oz












What skin type works best with it? It works wonderfully with oily, acne prone skin, like mine.

Why would you buy it again? Yes but only until i don't find anything else mattifying.

Where can I buy it? All leading stores in Pakistan.


Product Quality: 4/5

Product Value for the Money: 2/5

Product Rating: 3/5

Price: 180 Rs for 16 oz.


Product Review: Hard Candy Sheer Envy Primer.

Hey gorgeous people,

My very first review is about the primer i use. I got it from walmart which is certainly not available in Pakistan but i thought it could be helpful for all of them who are looking forward to buying it or have already gotten hold of it. So here it goes,



What is it? A silicone based face primer actually but can be used individually as an eyeshadow primer.


Product Description from the manufacture: A light weight formula that enhances the skins texture and primes the skin for makeup application.


What does it do? It fills in the lines, pores, and prepares your skin for foundation application.

Who is it for? If you are a foundation person, you should definitely not skip applying a primer. 


How is it used? / How does it work? 
A very small amount is needed to cover the whole face. BUT the very important thing is to shake it well. give it a good shake and you will have the best results. If you fail to do so or forget shaking the product layers and will not give a good effect instead make you a bit oily (as i am an oily person).


How does it smell? It has an extremely distant smell.


How does it feel? Well, when you look at the particles it definitely looks gritty. BUT BUT BUT!!! once it comes into contact with your skin, it smooths over like a dream. ( The best-est thing about this primer) 


How well does it open? Easy to open. A flip cover. But the product may clump at the top as you can see. you can count it as a con, but its no big deal.

How is the packaging? Very convenient.

How big is it?1.6oz.  It can fit into my hand.



Does it work for you? Oh yeah!!! Very very well.

What skin type works best with it? It best suits the combination skin. as oily skinned people have to be a little cautious because a slight larger amount will make you oily.


Why would i use it ? 
Silky matte dry down powder like finish. 


Would you recommend it? YES YES YES!!!

Price: 8$ CAN

Comedogenicity: Does not clog pores.


Product Quality: 4/5

Product Value for the Money:5/5

Product Rating: 5/5

Hello Ladies And Gentlemen,
This is Your citric friend here to blab her heart out about every thing in life. Yes, almost every single thing in life. But lets just start with my love for citrus. It started and goes back to times when I  was getting used to the tastes in food and the assortment in colors and what i happened to like the most was all shades of citrus! Believable Right? But the unbelievable part is that i even loved the bitterly taste.
Yeah. Really. And i still do.
I am sure a lot of people know the benefits of citrus fruits. But there is a Hell lot of variety in this teeny kingdom.
Which is your favourite fruit?
