Inspired look from Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt:-

“You will never leave where you are until you decide where you did rather be…”

 

Yes, it is always a tough and challenging for a creative person to get out from its comfort zone and do something really different. For me every look is a new challenge for me from where am learning something new by trying out something new either in my makeup or in my pose or with pictures. This post is very special to me as firstly, I tried to get out of my usual comfort zone which I never tried before. Secondly, Alia Bhatt look like pretty 20’s [she is young, I know: P] where am heading towards 30’s so it was quite challenging to try to look near to her. Although I believe a woman start looking beautiful only after growing older which I believe I am heading towards it every year slowly, but that is a different topic which we can discuss some other day.

 Shoutout:-

It is an inspired makeup of Alia bhatt from her upcoming film "Kapoor & Sons" from the song "Bolna". 

"What?...you havent watched it yet? guys, you need to see it first to know what i am talking about today..."

  Secondly, I admit am older than the inspired actress of today’s post (am talking about Alia…:P ) so kindly ignore my flaws and appreciate my effort please ;) 
[ sometime it is good to admit your flaws before anyone point you out...lol].

Today let’s focus on my inspired makeup. Yes, I was bit nervous while doing this inspired makeup. No, the makeup is damm easy, infact any novice can do it too. But what I found challenging in this inspired makeup is looking as younger as her (which I am not anyhow…damm, why am repeating about it again and again? look like am crossing century...I guess it’s all about mind game). But like we say “where there’s a will, there’s a way…” and my will power shows the way which I am going to share with you all today.

Let's get into the picture tutorial now… 
                                                                     

-“Why not a video this time?

-“I wanted but a big pimple just below my nose makes me camera conscious and I had to stop myself from shooting …damm!”

Prime my eyes.

 

Using a peachy orange shade as my transition shade on my crease line of the eye. And blend it a little bit down all over the lid.

 

 
Taking a mauvish-pink eye shadow and applying it all over the lid leaving just before the crease line.

 

 
Next I took a black eye shadow and line my upper lash line. Followed by mascara and Falsies.

 On my lower lash line applied kajal. End up using mascara on my lower lash line too.

 

On my lips, I use two beautiful lipsticks from the brand Mac cosmetics (like I always prefer, in lipsticks) to get beautiful pink lips like Alia Bhatt in the song. I dabbed the lipstick a bit with my fingers after applying it directly from the bullet to look like a pink stain on my lips [which although never showed up in my pictures, disappointing?...Nah is happy with the outcome actually ;) ]

The products I have used for this tutorial (Now, don’t run behind me for repeating same brands of products again and again). I am a person who loves to stick to same brand and products for a lifetime unless and until I have been challenged or pushed by someone to try out something new [okay, now you know my weakness, babes…do challenge me please …: P] am I diverting from the topic? Oh yes…let’s back to the list now …

Finally am done with my today’s chitchat along with the tutorial of this "Alia bhatt" inspired look. Leaving you all with my loads pictures of my first attempt at looking younger in my inspired makeup…lol.

Lastly, it was a easy peasy makeup look which you can tried out on daily basis and i guess many of you already tried it. It just that Alia did this makeup in her song so it got a "signature" on it. And bloggers like me easily get inspired by this kind of makeup after a long time of leaving college days :P

Chitchat with my collective Haul:-

Hey my girlfriends’ hope you all have a great weekend… mine was pretty hectic as there was a family get together. But ended up with a blast as I shopped a lot…nah, it’s not just that my birthday month is coming up next, it’s just a random haul…few were pre-planned and few are just impulsive buy.

And yes I end up my weekend with pampering my hair.

 Well, am using L’Oreal hair spa mask from last one year for my hair and yes I am addicted to it. It really makes my hair look gorgeous and smooth but the effect remain until for next wash if you do it at home. So I will always suggest you all that try to do hair spa in salon only as much as you can as the effect is quite long lasting but yeah sometime I don’t get time as am a busy mom of a four year old naughty kid…lol…and so I end up with this trying at home…!

Oh! Between did you saw my sleek haul? It was not done in one month, I slowly added most of them from long time and here is the picture of the same. I just love sleek palettes as they are budget friendly and pigmented ones. Few do have fallout issues or chalky but with a good primer they always work for me. And yes I ordered mostly from “LA MAKEUP AFFAIRE” page from Facebook, my friend “RITII NARANG” is the owner of the same. So, next time you want to buy you can contact her too ;)

Coming to the matte lip from sleek I just didn’t get time to try it till now…am I kidding? Nah, seriously…not even swatched so before I say any single word about it I need to swatch and use…lol I brought Fandango purple and party pink…I read many good reviews about it so fingers crossed ;) 

Between I found a close dupe of SLEEK FANDANGO PURPLE…it is…LIMECRIME UTOPIA…(not going to say any word on the controversy of adultery ingredients present on “Limecrime” products…google it ..oops…zipppeddd :P !!!)

Finally Nars Dragon girl is on my kitty!

Okay, I admit I buy too much makeup…and I hardly show my beauty care regime…people think am hiding my secrets but the fact is am ashamed to tell you all that I don’t follow any proper brand for my face, I use test and trial kind off. 

Previously my this kind of stupid act always create loads of problems on my skin and face but now it don’t create any such problem... And the secret lies in my weight loss journey that making my skin look good. In short, what I realize in these past eight months is “YOU DON’T NEED HIGH END BRAND SKIN CARE ROUTINE TO MAKE YOUR SKIN LOOK GOOD OR YOU DON’T NEED TO MUCH MAKEUP TO HIDE YOUR ACNE MARKS OR PIMPLES IF YOU DRINK LOTS OF WATER, KEEP YOURSELF HYDRATED AND EAT LOADS OF FRUITS AND GREEN TEA THEN YOUR SKIN WILL BEHAVE GOOD FROM INTERNALLY, IT IS ALWAYS NECESSARY TO KEEP YOURSELF HEALTHY FROM INSIDE TO SHOW IT ON YOUR FACE ;) ”

People and brands people will kill me saying all these that too in my beauty blog…Ahh! Never mind, may be more brands will ban me now. ..lol 

But I am always honest to my reviews and talks…i share what I feel. And that’s why this time to prove my words here I am showing you what I end up buying from beauty care range…loads of affordable cheap beauty care products from Patanjali. I already started using all and let’s see what happen but till now am quite impressed with Patanjali. Still need time to up with my reviews…So, until then have a look at the picture…

And oh yes…See such a stupid…I forgot to show you all what I picked from MAC MATTE LIPS COLLECTION 2015 that just launched in India last Friday. Here they are…I already reviewed “Pink Pigeon” and “Dangerous” on my friend’s blogs…these are my re-buy…errrrr re-buy??? Yes…I ended up giving those two lipsticks to my darling sister and so re-buy…I know, I know freaking me …lol  and another one is “whirl”… it is new one in this collection. I am waiting to grab few more from this matte range and then will do a combine post. Till then just enjoy the pictures girls ;)

Mac is really costly and it just burn my pocket, every time I buy a mac lippie and look into my wallet, it’s almost empty…but I am a lipstick addict and I love matte finish so it’s not always about Mac only. I end up buying matte lipsticks from any brand…gift me matte lipsticks as much as you can and I will be the happiest person in this world no matter what if the shades are similar to my stash of lipstick that I already have…lol 

It is true that not all brand can impress me easily and that’s why I always stick to some particular brand when I planned to buy and CHAMBOR is one them. Their recent launches EXTREME MATTE LIPSTICK just grab my attention and I end up buying three. One was brought in past and other two was brought recently…I might grab few more from this range as I already started loving their quality and texture of that lipsticks. Here they are…

And yes recently I visited my city Kolkata and I end up buying few accessories…

With the picture of my recent  FOTD & OOTD that I did this weekend I am stopping my blah! blah! chitchat here…:)

Hope you all like my post, quite lengthy I admit but if you like it let me know so that I could start something like this for you all…

Keep smiling and stay blessed, see you in my next post ;)

Love ya!

Sammy :)
