I'm reviewing this shade which is my favorite shade. Silken Peach is a dark peach brown shade with a hint of dull pink, I didn't find any hint of shimmer in the shade, it's really my favorite shade and I love it. 

In the mirror of my own experience

I have used some of Faces Canada lipsticks before and have reviewed one too, but this one my most most favorite!
Like other products of Silk Range this one is also an exceptional product from this range. I've used it many times and each time I found it excellent.
  
Packaging

Like all products from this range, the packaging of Faces Glam On Lipstick is beautiful and elegant. As you can see it comes in black metallic shining case which looks
stylish and eye-catching. 
The packaging is not only beautiful but sturdy and light weight too, very easy to keep in purse while traveling.





Texture

The texture is soft, silky and quite moisturising. It glides on lips very smoothly. It's between the matte and glossy and just perfect for the lips in every season. A silky feeling remains in my mind whenever I apply it on my lips because it insists me to feel due to its silky texture.
Pigmentation


Its a super pigmented lipstick just one or two swipes can give the right color. When I saw it at first, I thought it’s quite deep for me but after applying it, it proved to be one of my favorite shade lip color. It doesn't settle on fine lines and gives a soft look of lips. No need to apply a lip balm but in case you have super dry lips, apply a light coat of lip balm before using it.

Application

The shade is amazing and can be used with both light and dark eye makeup look because it's a shade that lies between dark and light. You can realize this only after applying it on your lips. I always apply it  after applying a same color lip liner, just two or three swipes give me the right color. I take a tissue paper, press on my lips and become ready for going out any where.

Effect

I just love the effect after applying it. I remember when I first applied it with a slight hesitation because the lipstick seemed to be a bit deep but I was happily surprised to see the actual shade and effect. The shade is so beautiful that it will go with every skin tones from fair to dark and also perfect for all ages from young to old ladies.

Lasting power

The lipstick also has very strong staying power, it lasts almost for 5 to 6 hours easily without fading. Even in this season, I found it very  long lasting. I think in summers very few lipsticks give such staying power.

Outside
Good points


It comes in a nice sturdy packaging with a glossy cover and secured locking system.
 The lipstick is quite moisturizing to my lips.
 The texture is very silky and it glides easily on my lips.
 I like the floral fragrance it has.
The price is not unreasonable to see its quality and quantity.

Bad points

If your lips are super dry, you need a lip balm before applying it.

Finally...

As i have told that it's one of my favorite lipstick so there's no need to write much now. The lipstick has all the qualities of a high class product. From packaging to smell, texture to pigmentation, lasting power to quantity everything is perfect. You can ignore some faults after getting so much advantages.  I really love this lipstick and appreciate Faces for giving such a lovely product to their customers.

Pastel love!! {NOTD}

I really love pastel shades for summers be it clothes or nail paints for that matter...they look soo cool & just perfect for this season!

I recently bought a few pastel shades nail colors & one of the,m was this Colorbar Nail lacquer in 15 from it's Exclusive range which is a lovely pastel green\blue shade. Although I'm not much impressed by the texture of this polish because, it doesn't give a very good & glossy finish but still for the quantity & price they are pretty good & worth buying!

Have you tried Colorbar Nail lacquers?? I'm surely gonna get a few more shades this summer :)

Illamasqua Naked Strangers Collection

A place where alter egos are laid bare and naked flesh is a source of unashamed inspiration. In this delicate tipping point between intimacy and pleasurable detachment, we revel in the unknown; exploring the distance between pure Monogamous, gilded Faithful and uninhibited Swinger. Exposed nude tones, adorned with rich licks of gold, leave you gasping for more. Don’t restrain yourself. Unless, of course, you enjoy it. 

“Naked Strangers captures inner glows and depths. The deeply and darkly alluring exists alongside ethereal shimmering brilliance. We are complex and multifaceted whilst also being naked to the world.”
Alex Box, Illamasqua Creative Director.
“Naked Strangers represents everything about borderlines...the human edge between romance and permissive intimacy...a step beyond control, a step past the edge and a collection of gilded moments upon the tip of sensation. Beautiful nudes with metallic edge set amongst eclectic textures.”
David Horne, Illamasqua Director of Product Development.

Craftsvilla.com(Website review) & an outfit in saree


If you're a regular reader of COB then you would be aware of my craze about online shopping these days and that's because online shopping has made my life very easy. Shopping has been always exciting for me but gradually the business and work burden has made it so difficult to get some time for going out to the market. So it's really easy to search out some websites and check the products and the order them.  I have noticed that there are so many ladies and girls like me who love to shop online and they always request me to introduce good online websites for shopping after my own experience. I'm glad that my reviews give them some help to choose one of them for purchasing. Today I want to introduce one another website Craftsvilla which is of course not new, but it's my first experience with it so I'm going to share my experience with this lovely website. I hope you'll enjoy it!





A few words about Crafsvilla.com


Craftsvilla.com is a marketplace to "Discover Unique Indian Products" including Handmade, Vintage, Ethnic, Organic and Natural products from India.
India is a beautiful assortment of diversity reflected in our Clothing, Food, Lifestyle, Language, Music, Books etc. This diversity is so rich and diverse that an attempt to capture it on a single platform was never made. Craftsvilla.com is that sincere attempt by bunch of young insane guys and gals who think this is possible now with the Internet.
Craftsvilla.com uses a marketplace model to capture the regional variations of India. We connect local artisans & designers directly to global customers and thereby increase their livelihood, remove middlemen, help them create/promote their brand and thereby preserve our culture, traditions and values. We believe this journey will not only help artisans of India but also help customers discover and buy products which they otherwise are not able to do today.
As they say starting Craftsvilla.com was fate, reaching out to artisans was a choice, but falling in love with the idea of India was beyond our control. Lets relive that old India together again.
Craftsvilla.com is funded by US based Investors: Nexus Venture Partners and Lightspeed Venture Partners. Craftsvilla.com has also been hailed in the various media including Times of India, Hindu, Economic Times, WSJ etc as the "Hottest Young Company in Handicrafts in India" which is bringing positive change in the livelihood of base level artisans and designers.

In the mirror of my own experience


I was surprised when i browsed through this website because I never expected such big collection of different products on any Indian website. They so big varieties of products that you need a whole day to check out everything here. I was searching some hand made jewelry from here but when I saw their clothing collection, I was really amazed. They have clothes of every range, from low to high price and of all types of designs. I love their their jewelries, kurties, T-shirts and sarees. After searching for hours, at last I decided to purchase a saree because I fell in love with this saree just after seeing. It's simple but pretty, though I rarely wear saree in usual life but this beautiful saree insisted me to purchase it. I placed my order for this saree and I instantly received my confirmation mail for the order. But I didn't find any mail of 'order dispatched' or any tracking number but I was surprised to see  my courier the very next day, . The saree was in perfect condition securely put in a packet. When I opened the package, I was really glad to see the fabric and quality of the saree. I realized that the quality of the saree is fabulous to see its cost. I love it.
