Beauty Haul: Pujo shopping and gifts from brands

Beauty haul October 2015: Revlon, VLCC, Studio West, Lakme India, Kaya, Himalaya herbals, Irresistible Me, Paperboat.

I must admit that there are perks of being a beauty blogger ( I would be a liar if I were not). Right before Durga Pujo, when I started shopping, gifts started pouring in from the brands. You have already seen the gift boxes from Kaya Ayurveda. But, I thought, since I received quite some goodies, why not share them as visual treats?

My Pujo Haul...That's huge! I know!

Here is everything I bought and received.
Let me start with the ones I bought.

L-R: Plumalicious, Love That Red, Pink Pop

I don't know why I never bought Revlon products. They are slightly pricier than other brands. yet, it's hard to believe that I have not even tried their age-old, super hyped, Super Lustrous Lipsticks. And now
that I turned my attention towards them, I HAD to get the vintage shades which seems to have vanished from the market. Anyway, after searching for hours, I found Love That Red which had come out in 1953. How can I go away with one? So, I bought another one, I have to check the shade name. The very sweet SA, who had seen me before, gave me a gift of this Super Lustrous Lipgloss. Yippie!!

VLCC Nourishing Daily Shampoo

VLCC Shampoo: If you have seen one of my last hauls, you would know that I bought face washes on BOGO offer. There was  a similar one for this. Since, I had a friend with me, we bought a set and split. How clever is that?!

Studio West Purchase

In the last couple of months I have been so busy, can you believe that I did not even have the time to go shopping? ( Yeah, poor me!) I had gone to Westside in search of some clothing. I did not find anything I liked, but instead, got drawn to their in-house brand Studio West, I don't know where to start and surely, I did not want to splurge on makeup ( since I already got two lipsticks from Revlon). The deodorant in Green Apple scent was nice. it's unusual for a perfume product and I love green apples. But then, can I leave with only one?  I HAD to pick up a lipstick and I am glad that I did. It has become my go-to because lately, I have become tired of reds and fuchsias. I recalled I needed a remover as well and here it is.

Himalaya Hamper

 Moving on to gifts from the brands (which I would individually review later), if you follow me on Instagram ( if you don't, do it now. Find me @niveditanb ), you would know that recently Himalaya Herbals sent me a box full of goodies to share with friends and family and to refresh my memory of the products. I am so happy! I am especially enjoying the moisturizing lotion.

Paper Boat Drinks

Paper Boat sent me a few of their drinks which I so enjoyed! Since they shared, I don't see why I can't I feature those.

Lakme Absolute Lip Tints Matte

Lakme India shared their latest Lip Pout Lip Tints and oh my! Yes, keep your eyes peeled!

Kaya skin products

The other day, Kaya Skin Clinic sent me two of their Essential skin cares and the timing couldn't have been better! I just tried the makeup remover and I am sold!


Last, but not the least, the king of all ( just saying because gifts always make me happy), a HUGE 8-in-1 Sapphire Curler with 8 wands to get any kind of curls I might think of or dream of!

Yeah, this was a huge one. I hope you enjoy looking at the treats!

Xoxo.
