  • The Glow Protocol: Why The Face Shop’s Collagen & Pomegranate Serum is My Vanity Essential

    By Teyana Sharma By Teyana Sharma The Glow Protocol: Why The Face Shop’s Collagen & Pomegranate Serum is My Vanity Essential 27 November 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement People often ask me, "Teyana, what actually stays on your vanity?" In my role as an Editor, my home is a revolving door of products promising miracles. It takes something truly special to cut through the noise—something that delivers both the clinical results I demand and the sensory experience I crave. Recently, my narrative changed when I introduced The Face Shop Collagen & Pomegranate Serum with Hyaluronic Acid into my routine. Come in; let me show you why this bottle has become a permanent resident in my life. Image credit: @thewildstallionstudios Beauty is personal, but great skincare is universal. When I first held this serum, I was drawn to the promise of "Volume Lifting." As an editor constantly on camera or in meetings, I don't just want hydration; I want resilience. I want that bounce back. This bottle felt like a promise of vitality before I even opened it. My home is filled with greenery because I believe in the grounding power of nature. I treat my skincare the same way. This serum fits perfectly into my "clean beauty" corner, drawing its power from natural extracts while still delivering scientific results. The star here is obvious. We aren't just talking about a hint of fruit; this is powered by Pomegranate Extract and 10% Collagen, paired with Hyaluronic Acid for that deep, water-locking hydration. It’s the perfect marriage of lush nature and firming science. I keep it right here by my sink, next to the real thing. It serves as a daily visual reminder of the potent, vibrant ingredients I’m feeding my skin—antioxidants to brighten and collagen to firm. Image credit: @thewildstallionstudios The application process is where I truly fell in love. It’s a few minutes of the day I claim entirely for myself. It begins with the click of the cap. The packaging is sleek, hygienic, and designed to protect the integrity of the active ingredients inside. Precision is key. One pump dispenses the perfect dose. You can see the concentration right there on the nozzle—rich and ready to work. Look at that texture on my skin. It’s not a watery essence that disappears, nor is it a heavy, suffocating cream. It’s a beautifully viscous, milky serum that holds its shape, promising deep nourishment upon contact. Image credit: @thewildstallionstudios As I massage it during my morning routine, the absorption is instantaneous. There’s no tacky residue—just a feeling of instant plumpness thanks to the Hyaluronic Acid. It’s the hydration step my skin actually looks forward to. After a few weeks of consistent use, I started noticing the "lift." The contours of my face felt firmer, and my under-eyes looked less tired. It’s become my secret weapon for faking a full eight hours of sleep. It puts the sparkle back in my eyes. Image credit: @thewildstallionstudios An editor’s life is rarely stationary. Whether I'm heading to fashion week or a weekend retreat, my packing edit is ruthless. The Face Shop Collagen & Pomegranate Serum is one of the first things into my travel pouch. Cabin pressure and hotel air are notoriously dehydrating; this is my insurance policy against dull travel skin. When the chaotic day is done, the bright lights of the bathroom are replaced by the soft, warm glow of my bedroom lamps. This is when my skin does its heavy lifting. I slip into my favorite cozy knitwear and take a moment of pause before my nighttime routine. Holding this bottle signifies the end of the work day and the beginning of rest. I revisit the serum for my evening application. It’s comforting, locking in moisture while I sleep so I wake up refreshed, not depleted. Image credit: @thewildstallionstudios The proof, as they say, is in the glow. This isn't makeup; this is bare skin luminescence. The Face Shop Collagen & Pomegranate Serum with Hyaluronic Acid has gifted my skin a bouncier texture and a radiance that feels deeply healthy, rather than just surface-level shiny. It’s a permanent fixture in my home, and on my face.

  • Say Goodbye To Hair Fall, Dandruff & Oily Skin: Wishcare’s Power Trio Now On Nykaa

    By Ananya Patankar By Ananya Patankar Say Goodbye To Hair Fall, Dandruff & Oily Skin: Wishcare’s Power Trio Now On Nykaa 25 July 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Three targeted formulas, one trusted brand. From scalp to skin, WishCare delivers clean, effective care, now exclusively on Nykaa . Get to the root of your beauty woes with WishCare’s three must-haves on Nykaa—whether it’s persistent hair fall, pesky dandruff, or oily skin that never settles, these power-packed formulas deliver visible results, fast. When it comes to personal care, one size rarely fits all. That’s why WishCare, known for its ingredient-led, solution-focused formulas, has launched three high-performance essentials on Nykaa that are tailor-made for your most stubborn skin and scalp concerns. From fighting chronic hair fall to banishing dandruff and balancing oily skin under the sun, these products deliver serious results backed by clean formulations and glowing reviews. Let’s start at the top, your scalp. If your hairbrush is starting to look like a thatched roof, this gentle yet effective shampoo could be the intervention you need. Powered by a potent blend of rice water, multi-peptides, rosemary, and caffeine, this shampoo is a scalp-friendly, sulfate-free solution that strengthens hair from the roots while promoting growth and reducing breakage. Its lightweight formula produces a rich lather without drying out your scalp, making it ideal for oily to combination scalps. What users love? “My hair feels stronger after just a week,” says one reviewer. Others swear by its mild fragrance and how it helps reduce both dandruff and hair fall. At just ₹495, this is the kind of everyday essential your shower shelf deserves. Furthermore, when it comes to flakes and itchiness it’s more than just an inconvenience, they can tank your confidence. WishCare’s dandruff-control shampoo tackles the issue from the roots with AHA and BHA, two exfoliants that gently lift away buildup and dead skin while maintaining your scalp’s moisture balance. Unlike harsh anti-dandruff shampoos, this one hydrates as it exfoliates, keeping sensitivity at bay and restoring scalp health with regular use. It’s especially ideal for those who suffer from recurring dandruff but hate the drying effects of typical formulas. Bonus points for being vegan, cruelty-free, and sulfate-free, proving that gentle doesn’t mean ineffective. And once your scalp feels balanced and refreshed, it's time to turn your attention to your skin, because WishCare’s expertise doesn’t just stop at hair. Which brings us to WishCare’s sunscreen which isn’t just sun protection, it’s skincare. Infused with 5% niacinamide, Zinc PCA, ceramides, CICA, and oat extract, this fluid SPF offers a weightless, non-greasy, and completely white-cast-free experience. It sinks into oily and acne-prone skin like a dream, mattifying instantly while improving your skin barrier over time. It’s rare to find a sunscreen that plays well under makeup, doesn’t clog pores, and still provides broad-spectrum SPF 50 PA++++ protection, but this one checks all those boxes. Reviewers rave about how it “feels like skincare” and how it’s helped calm breakouts while keeping skin shine-free all day. What is astonishing is that all these three products are vegan, cruelty-free, and free from sulfates and parabens, proving that clean beauty can be powerful too. With each priced at an affordable ₹495 and backed by Nykaa’s trusted platform, you don’t have to compromise on results, ethics, or price. Whether you're looking to stop hairfall in its tracks, clear out stubborn dandruff, or finally find a sunscreen that doesn’t make you greasy, WishCare’s power trio on Nykaa is your shortcut to visible, lasting results.

  • Makeup Therapy: How Bijal Chavda Transforms Beauty Into A Soothing Art, Creating Calm With Color And Unique Niche In Beauty Content

    By Sakshi Batra By Sakshi Batra Makeup Therapy: How Bijal Chavda Transforms Beauty Into A Soothing Art, Creating Calm With Color And Unique Niche In Beauty Content 3 March 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Painting Her Way To The Top In a world brimming with influencers, Bijal Chavda stands out with her unique story and soothing artistry. A self-taught makeup artist turned MTV Winged winner, Bijal has carved a niche for herself in the digital world, spreading calmness and creativity through her makeup content on Instagram and YouTube. Her journey, born out of confusion and self-discovery, is nothing short of inspiring. Let’s dive into the story of this Mumbai-born powerhouse and how she became the queen of her craft. From Confusion To Clarity: The Birth Of A Dream Bijal grew up in the bustling city of Mumbai, where creativity and culture thrive. With a supportive family backing her every move, she explored various interests, from mastering karate to excelling in mehendi art. However, it wasn’t until after her graduation that Bijal found her true calling. “I was always keen on makeup, but I was confused about what to do next. Then I decided to pursue it as a career,” she shares. This pivotal decision marked the beginning of her journey into the world of beauty and makeup. The Turning Point: Mtv Winged Bijal’s life took a dramatic turn when she participated in MTV Winged, the first-ever hair and makeup reality show hosted by Gaelyn Mendonca and presented by Lakme Academy. Competing against some of the most talented artists in the country, Bijal faced daily challenges that tested her creativity, skill, and resilience. “Starting with 15-20 participants, the competition narrowed down to the top 10. Each day brought new challenges and incredible guest mentors,” she recalls. Emerging as the winner of the show was a game-changing moment that shaped her destiny. Lakme even sponsored her cosmetology course, giving her professional skills a solid foundation. Learning From The Best While Bijal’s journey began with self-teaching, she credits her inspiration to iconic figures like Nikkie Tutorials , James Charles , Jefree Star and Shreya Jain . Watching their videos fuelled her passion and motivated her to create content that resonates with her audience. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PidrLDjQcc However, the road wasn’t always smooth. “There were times when I felt demotivated, comparing my content to others with better quality or more engaging videos. But I reminded myself that I’m doing this for me, not for others. That mindset keeps me sorted,” she says. Skincare Wisdom And Makeup Minimalism Bijal’s content goes beyond makeup artistry, she’s also an advocate for uncomplicated skincare. Her advice? “Keep it simple: cleanser, serum, and a patch test for new products. Focus on two key features on your face. For me, it’s concealing my under-eyes and adding lip tint and blush. I don’t even use foundation, and I’m okay with imperfections showing through.” This approach not only makes her relatable but also empowers her followers to embrace their natural beauty. Advice To Budding Influencers For those looking to make it big in the influencer world, Bijal’s advice is golden. “Be committed to your work and consistent in creating high-quality content. Don’t just chase trends; always do what keeps you motivated. It’s not about the number of followers but about the reach and impact you have on people.” Dreams And Aspirations Bijal’s journey is far from over. She dreams of collaborating with more luxury brands and eventually launching her own brand. Her commitment to consistency and her passion for innovation promises a bright future. The Calm Creator Bijal Chavda’s story is one of passion, perseverance, and purpose. From a confused graduate to a celebrated makeup artist, her journey reminds us that success lies in following your dreams and staying true to yourself. As she continues to create satisfying, soothing content for her ever-growing audience, Bijal’s artistry is a testament to the power of resilience and self-belief.

  • Valentine’s Gifting Made Easier With Nykaa Fragrance Range

    By Aarti Singh By Aarti Singh Valentine’s Gifting Made Easier With Nykaa Fragrance Range 2 February 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Wouldn’t it be great if, just like Cupid’s arrow, your gifts also hit the bullseye? Although gift-giving might not be the only way to express your affection towards somebody, it surely is a huge aspect. And while affection can be showered through various other means, gifting adds on that extra sparkle. It is proof of how well you know the other person or simply how good of a listener you are. When it comes to Valentine’s Day, instead of flocking to the internet hurriedly to search “Gifts for Valentine’s Day”, simply take our advice and gift your partner something that tokenizes their essence to you. And nothing stands the test of time like a good old-fashioned fragrance that reminds you of that special someone. Whomsoever you might be, we have curated a list of fragrances that will automatically drive away all your gifting worries and put you and your partner in the mood for love. For Her You might be tempted to gift your female counterpart the same old bouquet of red roses and a Valentine’s Day card. We say do that! But pair it with any of these perfumes to match their true personality, and watch how that works in your favour. Burberry Goddess Just as the name suggests, this fragrance is perfect for the divine feminine who is ready to set the world ablaze every day. With top notes fused with Vanilla and Lavender, it is for the woman who knows herself in and out and is not afraid to show that. It is a seamless concoction of layers of vanilla goodness blended with woody tonalities and rich sweetness at the heart. It is a sensual fragrance that invokes a spirit of boldness within you. GUESS Seductive Noir It is a scent that embodies the oriental fragrance with playful hints. Top notes infused with bergamot, sage and peonies, this fragrance gives you a refreshing experience to evoke your inner edgy fashionista. It is an exquisitely quintessential scent for the woman who oozes confidence and embodies all the aspects of a dark feminine spirit. With heart notes of Iris Pallida, Jasmine Sambad and Muguet, this is the perfect gift for a woman who is slightly mature yet still flirty and playful. Victoria’s Secret Bombshell You can never go wrong with Victoria’s Secret. It is a sure-shot pathway of scoring instant royalty points with the woman you might be trying to woo, and Bombshell is one such fragrance that has never gone amiss. It is a fresh and brightening mixture of fruity florals on a sunny day picnic. It welcomes you with dominant notes of strawberries, pineapple and fresh citrus and hooks you to the hearty hints of Purple Passion Fruit, Shangri-La Peonies and Vanilla Orchids. It catches the essence of that woman who brightens up your day simply with her smile. This fragrance is perfect for a playful summer-spring symphony. NISARA Vanilla Rush Ambery With top notes of Orchid, White Floral and Vanilla, this fragrance lures you in with its cocoa-like scent and leaves you smelling like a bakery at the crack of dawn, basking in the effervescence of freshly baked goodness. It exudes a warmth that envelopes your senses in deft tones of caramel mocha richness. Its patchouli and amber undertones are perfect for someone who is in touch with her calm. Avon Little Black Dress This should be considered as killing two birds with one guaranteed stone since you can practically never go wrong with a classic LBD. With top notes of Ylang- Ylang, Milkwood, Honeysuckle, Apricot Blossom and Coriander, this fragrance is perfect for someone who owns their sensuality. A diverse blend of Gardenia, Jasmine, Datura and Tonka Beans makes this a perfect fit for that special someone who brings a classy, sophisticated vibe to the table. This fragrance is like that loyal LBD that never does you wrong. For Him If you are someone who is tired of their male partners using the same scent for ages or if you’re even just someone who has typed “Gift ideas for men on Valentine’s Day’, then a fragrance that compliments their personality might be an oldie but a goldie. Here are our top 5 suggestions in such a scenario: Davidoff Cool Water As cool, coral and aquatic as it sounds, this fragrance truly stands for its aquatic appeal, with top notes enveloping you in an ocean-like aura, especially for those who love the serenity of surfing the tides. The scent is like a bottled version of an entire oceanic ecosystem. With top notes consisting of Sea Moss, Lavender, Rosemary, Calone and Green nuances, it is a fit for someone who enjoys a life of thrill and refreshment with every whiff. Titan Skinn Raw Instinct This scent carefully blends citrusy freshness with bold hints of warm woodiness to bring forth a perfect semblance of a fragrance that swoops you away in the strong arms of the summer breeze. It brings forth a mix of spices and flora, fused with ambers that leave you with a fusion of robust notes; must for a man who is both soft & playful as the spring and ripe & mature as the summer. Base notes composed of Cardamom, Patchouli and Musk Melon preserve the essence of both the day and the night. Hugo Boss Energise A fragrance that combines Mint, Pink Pepper, Pineapple Leaf and Lemon for its top notes and makes it work wonderfully well together. It has Kumquat, Mandarin and Juniper forming its heart notes, giving it the proper distinctive palette. It is crafted for the spirit of masculinity that maintains calm and brings about a decisive mark. The undertones give off a balance of Leather, Vanilla and Teak Wood that adds to the richness of the entire concoction. Ora d’oro Perfume After Party As an ode to all those memorable and beautiful moments shared with your special someone, this scent bottles up all the nostalgia and chaos of some late-night shenanigans and presents it on a fragrant platter. It features top notes that are fresh, clean and sensual at the same time to reveal the essence of someone who determines their own story. The base is made from a fresh citrus accord, fused with ambery Cedar notes to give it a flawless blend. Ramson’s Once More It is an impeccable blend of Musk and Vanilla with affluent florals like Jasmine, Mimosa rose and Freesia that give it the pristine balance of soft masculinity. It is sweet and fruity with notes of Amber, Bergamot and Orange to serve you a leathery and woodsy feel. It creates a clashing palette that works wonderfully well in its favour. Now remember, gift-giving is a very intimate and vulnerable activity. It not only shows your affection but also the attention you hold towards the other person. Though material things might still be lower on the list, they are still something that adds a personalised touch to your celebration. And what better way to extend the very celebration than to carry a token of your partner’s appreciation in the form of rich scents to remember them by?

  • From Alexandria To Dubai: The Inspiring Journey Of Mennatallah Ali

    By Anushka Sharma By Anushka Sharma From Alexandria To Dubai: The Inspiring Journey Of Mennatallah Ali 14 August 2024 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Mennatallah Ali’s story is one of passion, perseverance, and a deep love for beauty and fashion. Originating from the bustling coastal city of Alexandria, Egypt, Mennatallah's journey into the world of beauty began at a young age. She was enamored with fashion, beauty, and skincare, which laid the foundation for her future endeavors. Her early foray into the beauty industry saw her working as a makeup model. However, she soon realized the inconsistency in professional makeup services and took it upon herself to master the craft. After completing a makeup course, she began doing her own professional makeup, showcasing her skills and personal style. The turning point in her journey came when she moved to the UAE. Initially, she took a break from her passion but soon recognized the plethora of opportunities in Dubai, a city known for its dynamic and diverse culture. Encouraged by the vibrant environment, she ventured into covering events, reviewing products, and collaborating with beauty shops. Although her initial efforts were intermittent, Mennatallah resolved to pursue her passion full-time, aiming to make a significant mark in the influencing and blogging world. Mennatallah speaks highly of the fashion and beauty culture in the Middle East, particularly in Alexandria, where trends ignite quickly and spread like wildfire. She credits the region’s rich tradition in fashion for her inspiration, mentioning renowned designers like Hani Al-Bahiri, who are well-known for their exquisite bridal gowns. Living in Dubai has most definitely offered Mennatallah a unique advantage. Unlike the conservative nature of Egypt, Dubai's openness and diversity provide her with the freedom to explore and express her creativity. This freedom, she believes, is a significant factor in her growth as an influencer . The influencer industry in Dubai, she notes, is vibrant yet seasonal, with different times of the year bringing varying levels of activity based on religious and cultural festivals. Mennatallah’s love for Indian cinema is another interesting facet of her personality. A devoted fan of Bollywood, she fondly recalls skipping school to watch movies and can name films just by their scripts. Her admiration for actors like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Hrithik Roshan adds a touch of global culture to her local Egyptian and Emirati experiences. Looking ahead, Mennatallah is heavily focused on expanding her influence in the Gulf region. She plans to take courses to understand social media algorithms better and aims to grow her follower base significantly. Her ultimate goal is to establish a strong presence in the UAE before potentially returning to the competitive market in Egypt with a well-established profile. Mennatallah's journey from beauty to fashion is a testament to her dedication and resilience. Her story is not just about personal success but also about the broader narrative of pursuing one's passion in a rapidly changing world. As she continues to evolve and make her mark, Mennatallah Ali stands as an inspiring figure for aspiring influencers and content creators everywhere.

  • Home Ingredients That Dermatologists Swear By

    By Anushka Sharma By Anushka Sharma Home Ingredients That Dermatologists Swear By 19 June 2024 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement In the quest for healthy and radiant skin, many individuals turn to home ingredients as a natural, cost-effective alternative to expensive skincare products. However, experts emphasize the importance of understanding the root causes of skin issues before adopting any home remedies. Consulting a dermatologist can provide valuable insights into your skin’s specific needs and help you avoid ingredients that may do more harm than good. Most dermatologists offer a guide on the home ingredients that are safe and beneficial for your skin, and those that should be avoided. Safe and Effective Home Ingredients That Dermatologists Love: Turmeric: Known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Can be used in various forms: mixed with milk or water, as a scrub, or as a face pack. Helps achieve glowing, tan-free, and radiant skin. Aloe Vera Gel: Can be store-bought (check ingredients) or directly extracted from the plant. The latter is always better! Rejuvenates the skin and serves as a natural moisturizer. Effective in treating sunburn, cuts, and occasional pimples. Cucumber: Naturally refreshes the skin and reduces puffiness. Can be applied directly to the skin for a cooling effect. Rose Water: Acts as a toner and can be included in face packs. Cleanses and calms the skin, providing a soothing effect. Honey: Rich in antioxidants and possesses exfoliating, moisturizing, and skin-lightening properties. Can be used alone or mixed with yogurt, turmeric, olive oil, etc., for enhanced benefits. Raw Milk: Prevents wrinkles and hydrates the skin. Can be applied directly to the face for a youthful glow. Olive Oil: Excellent for dry skin due to its moisturizing properties. Can be used as a natural remedy for maintaining skin hydration. Coconut Oil: Repairs the skin’s outer barrier and has antibacterial properties. Effective in calming skin inflammation, promoting healing, and slowing down aging. Best suited for dry skin. Yogurt/Curd: Highly moisturizing and can be used alone or combined with honey, aloe vera, turmeric, or olive oil. Beneficial for hydrating the skin and providing a natural glow. Importance Of Diet In Skincare: Most dermatologists stress that skin care is not only about topical treatments but also about what you consume. A diet rich in certain nutrients can significantly improve skin health. Omega-3 Fatty Acids And Polyphenols: Found in fruits, vegetables, herbs, nuts, and seeds. These nutrients help maintain skin health and fight inflammation. Beta-Carotene Is Your Best Friend: Consuming beta-carotene-rich foods can eliminate pale complexion and protect against winter skin issues. Found in carrots, sweet potatoes, and other colorful vegetables. Never Forget The Importance Of A Balanced Diet: Incorporate ample servings of vegetables, nuts, fruits, and proteins like beans and legumes. A balanced diet strengthens the gut and combats inflammation, reflecting positively on your skin. While home ingredients can be a boon for skincare, it is crucial to use them wisely and in consultation with a dermatologist. Understanding the causes of your skin issues and knowing which ingredients to use can lead to healthier, more radiant skin. Incorporate these dermatologist-approved ingredients into your skincare routine, and complement them with a nutritious diet to achieve the best results. Remember, skincare starts from the inside out, and a holistic approach will ensure long-lasting benefits for your skin.

  • This Is What Will Happen If You Stop Using All Skincare Products For Three Months

    By Anushka Sharma By Anushka Sharma This Is What Will Happen If You Stop Using All Skincare Products For Three Months 25 June 2024 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Well, to say the least, your skin will literally clear up like never before. Let’s talk about a case study and refer to that person as “X”, as “X” does not wish to disclose her real identity. X has been travelling the world as a digital nomad throughout her life, and definitely suffered from the adverse effects that travelling has on one’s skin. With a combination skin type, X was trying her level best to come up with a solution that would help her combat her skincare troubles. If you don’t know this already, combination skin type is one of the most common skin types around; It is signified as dry and sensitive in some areas such as one’s cheeks, and oily in others such as one’s T-zone. So, X starts on a journey of skincare which involved involved a twice-daily (morning & evening) face wash, followed by toner, hydrating face cream, and eye cream. She also included an exfoliating face wash once or two times a week. X didn’t want to exactly disclose the names of the brands, because the problem wasn’t in the brands, the problem was in the fact that the world told X to lather her skin with useless products. What happened after that? Well, nothing positive. Until no time, X started breaking out into little red bumps and developing high sensitivity around the cheek-region. It resulted in her skin being itchy, irritable, and inflamed. After a while, X realised that there was no point in using so many products on her skin which was already on a downgrade. Hence, she chose to blindly follow her father’s advice and eliminated every skincare product from her skincare routine. So, what was the new routine like? This routine was something that X would’ve never thought of adhering to in her wildest dreams. However, in this new routine, X chose to eliminate all the products and just keep the basics in hand. She ensured to wash her face every morning/evening with a damp warm towel (no products at all), and made it a point to use a natural lip balm for her lips, sunscreen during the day, and treated her skin to natural face masks on Sunday (All you need to do is literally spread aloe vera, yogurt or honey on your face.) What happened with this routine was BEYOND ORDINARY. For the first two days, X experienced inflammation where the cheek area got a tad irritated. After all, the skin was so fatigued. After two good days, the skin calmed down and continued to get calmer and calmer. Within ten days, X could notice that her skin had visibly calmed down and it looked significantly relaxed. The spots weren’t very prominent and the itchiness and sensitivity had faded. Within thirty days, X’s skin had adjusted to her new skin and saw pretty good results. Almost everything had faded and she was left with clear, almost supple, baby-like skin. This article isn’t written to make you hate lab-formulated products. However, it’s always ideal to look out for natural ingredients that are extracted from the goodness of the Earth. The usage of so many products definitely exposes our skin to a whole lot of chemicals and strips it off its essential oils. Why on earth would we ever want that for our skin?

  • The Power Of Passion – Ria Amin's Rise To Fame

    By Sakshi Batra By Sakshi Batra The Power Of Passion – Ria Amin's Rise To Fame 15 February 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Winning Million Of Hearts Ria Amin ’s journey from a college student with a passion for makeup to a beauty influencer with over 1 million followers is a tale of passion, persistence, and purpose. Known for her engaging beauty tutorials, skincare tips, and authentic voice, Ria has taken the digital beauty world by storm. But what sets her apart? Her journey, from humble beginnings in Mumbai to manifesting a flourishing brand, is as inspiring as it is empowering. The Spark: Discovering A Love For Beauty And Content Creation Ria’s journey began at home. In her second year of college, just before the lockdown, she took a chance and stepped into the world of content creation. Her first video, “7 Types of Eyeliners, followed by DIY Ghar ke Nuskhe (home remedies),” was a creative way to share her love for makeup hacks. Little did she know this small step would lead to a viral journey. She started her content career on TikTok, focusing on makeup hacks, foundation techniques, and concealer tricks. Ria soon realized that makeup wasn’t just a pastime for her, it was a calling. The Power Of Family Support Like many influencers, Ria faced challenges when it came to gaining support from her family. Her parents were initially sceptical about her online endeavours. They didn’t understand how content creation could evolve into a career. However, Ria’s dedication spoke volumes. She proved them wrong through hard work, creativity, and an unwavering commitment. Now, her parents are her biggest cheerleaders, and they are proud of her success in the beauty world. The Turning Point: Making A Bold Move For Success Ria’s success didn’t happen overnight. One pivotal moment in her journey was when she decided to rent a dedicated studio space for her content creation. “I told my mom I needed a space to create content, and once I rented that studio, everything changed,” Ria explains. With a professional setup and new energy, her content began reaching more people, eventually amassing over 1 million followers across platforms. Ria Amin's Beauty Secrets Ria has always been passionate about beauty, but her tips go beyond makeup. Recently, she discovered toner pads during a trip to Korea, a product that has now become a staple in her routine. “They’re magic for the skin, especially before makeup,” Ria suggests, advising her followers to give them a try. When it comes to home remedies, Ria keeps it simple but effective. “Ghar ka Nuskha? Always besan (gram flour) and malai (cream). Simple, but it works wonders.” Haircare Secrets: How To Keep Your Locks Healthy For Ria, haircare is about being gentle and using the right products. Her top advice? “Do not blow dry your hair with heat. Always use a cool setting or air dry your hair. Protect your hair with heat protectant spray and nourish it with a good hair mask,” she recommends. These small but important habits help keep her locks healthy and shiny. Fashion Tip: The Power Of A Scarf Ria’s influence extends beyond beauty into fashion. Her advice? “Use scarves as accessories. They elevate any look instantly.” Whether around your neck, in your hair, or as a handbag accessory, scarves are a versatile and stylish way to enhance your outfit. Advice For Aspiring Influencers For anyone hoping to break into the influencer world, Ria has words of wisdom: “Be true to yourself. Discipline is key. Don’t chase trends that aren’t working for you. Work on your craft, stay dedicated, and trust the process.” Her authenticity and consistent effort are the core reasons behind her success. Looking Ahead: Bold Beauty Trends On The Horizon Ria predicts that 2025 will be the year of bold beauty statements. “In 2024, we saw minimalism, but next year, people will experiment more with bold lips and hair blush,” she shares, excited about the new beauty trends on the horizon. As for her personal growth, Ria is focused on taking her content and brand to the next level. “I want to keep evolving and eventually build my own brand,” she says, a clear vision for her future success. Dream Destination When asked about travel, Ria reveals her fascination with Japan. “I’ve always dreamed of seeing cherry blossoms in full bloom, tasting the cuisine, and immersing myself in the culture,” she says. But no matter where she goes, Ria is committed to her craft, always searching for ways to inspire her followers with fresh content. A Beauty Journey That’s Just Beginning From a college experiment to a digital sensation with 1 million followers, Ria Amim’s rise to fame is a testament to the power of passion, consistency, and following your heart. With a focus on authenticity and discipline, Ria’s journey shows that success is built on hard work and staying true to yourself. As her platform grows, one thing is certain: Ria is just getting started, and the best is yet to come.

  • The Nykaa Cosmetics Edit: Decoding Top 5 Brightening Face Washes And Cleansers For Your Creative Canvas

    By Teyana Sharma By Teyana Sharma The Nykaa Cosmetics Edit: Decoding Top 5 Brightening Face Washes And Cleansers For Your Creative Canvas 4 November 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Let’s be real. In the world that runs on deadlines, mood boards, and endless travel—the world we live in—your skin is the first thing that tells the story. And darling, that story needs to be radiant, not ragged. We spend so much time perfecting the frame, the light, and the vibe , but none of it works if your canvas is tired, dull, or throwing a barrier tantrum. As a beauty influencer, I'm constantly testing. I need products that are efficient, impactful, and utterly dependable . My sink side isn't for decoration; it's a meticulously curated lab. The idea that a cleanser is just 'soap' is a myth we’re retiring immediately. Your cleanser is your first treatment—your skin's daily reset button. I’ve pulled the five formulas from Nykaa Cosmetics that truly belong in a professional kit. These heroes, packed with Glycolic Acid, Niacinamide, and Rice Water , are the reason my skin still glows after a 48-hour flight or a week of heavy makeup. Consider this your cheat sheet for flawless, filter-free radiance. My Five Indispensable Cleanser Secrets I've categorized these based on the skin mood you’re currently battling. Choose the one that speaks to your skin's emergency. 1. When You Need To Look Instantly Expensive: The Exfoliation Heroes If you feel like your skin has a film over it—a layer of dullness that just won’t quit—it’s time for a controlled micro-resurface. These two deliver that fresh, smooth feel that makes foundation feel like silk. L'Oreal Paris Glycolic Bright Daily Foaming Face Cleanser (100ml) : This is what I reach for when I have zero time for dullness . It's potent. The Glycolic Acid gets straight to work, lifting that weary layer and giving you an instant shot of clarity. It truly makes the skin look brighter after just one use. It's the pre-event secret. High-impact, quick results. If your skin is resilient and needs a wake-up call, this is it. Minimalist 7% ALA & AHA Brightening Face Cleanser (100ml) : For the ingredient-obsessed among us, this is a masterclass in formulation. Pairing AHA (Glycolic Acid) with 7% ALA (Alpha Lipoic Acid) gives you deep texture refinement plus serious antioxidant power. It’s tackling roughness and protecting against environmental stress simultaneously. Smart, multi-tasking, and perfect for when your pores start looking a little too friendly with the camera lens. 2. When Breakouts and Shine Are the Enemy: The Balancing Act If your creative genius is accompanied by an oily T-zone and congested pores, you need a smart solution. You need balance, not stripping. Plum 2% Niacinamide Face Wash With Rice Water (100ml) : I adore Niacinamide . It’s the ultimate good-guy ingredient. The 2% concentration here is fantastic for regulating that annoying mid-day shine and subtly tightening up the appearance of pores. It's brilliant prevention. A gentle approach to oil control. The Rice Water ensures your face feels plump and hydrated, not tight and squeaky—a rookie mistake in oily skin care. 3. When Your Skin Is Throwing a Tantrum: The Recovery Crew If you're dealing with redness, irritation, or post-retinol sensitivity, the only goal is to cleanse gently and support the barrier. Treat your skin like the fragile, brilliant thing it is. Dot & Key Barrier Repair + Hydrating Gentle Face Wash (100ml) : This is my emergency reset button . It’s ultra-gentle, non-stripping, and formulated to respect the skin’s acid mantle. When my skin feels sensitized from a heavy peel or too much travel, I switch to this immediately. Calming, restorative, and essential for ensuring your expensive serums actually work, instead of trying to fix a damaged barrier first. Nykaa Naturals Rice Water & Glycolic Acid Face Wash (100ml) : I’m including this one again because it’s the best choice for daily maintenance . It proves you can have the clarifying benefits of Glycolic Acid without the drama, thanks to the incredibly soothing nature of Rice Water . It’s the cleanser I always recommend to friends who want to "dip their toe" into active ingredients. Consistent glow, zero irritation. The perfect balance of gentle and effective. Don't Be Loyal—Be Smart The biggest mistake I see people make is sticking to one cleanser. Don't be loyal, be smart. Your skin changes daily based on stress, diet, climate, and your routine. Keep a Glycolic one for brightness (L’Oreal or Minimalist). Keep a Barrier one for comfort (Dot & Key or Nykaa Naturals). Invest in these formulas. They are the scaffolding for every other beautiful product you use. When your canvas is clean, bright, and calm, your genius can finally shine through.

  • Nykaa’s Winter Gifting Edit: Easy, Thoughtful Beauty Gifts Everyone Will Actually Use

    By Sakshi Shah By Sakshi Shah Nykaa’s Winter Gifting Edit: Easy, Thoughtful Beauty Gifts Everyone Will Actually Use 23 December 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement December does this thing where gifting suddenly feels urgent. There’s always one more friend, one more plan, one more reason to show up with something wrapped nicely. And beauty gifts? They’re the safest bet especially when they’re things people actually use, not just admire for five minutes. This winter, Nykaa’s edit makes gifting feel less like pressure and more like an easy win. Think vanity staples, low-effort indulgences, and products that quietly slide into everyday routines. Starting with something simple but oddly satisfying the Praush Beauty Pink Vanity Handheld Mirror . It’s cute without trying too hard, compact enough to live in a tote, and instantly makes touch-ups feel a little more put together. This is the kind of gift that doesn’t scream “beauty product” but somehow ends up being used every single day. It’s practical, yes but also very Instagram-friendly, which never hurts. If fragrance gifting feels risky, the Aqualogica Refresh+ Love At First Spritz Perfume Body Mists Set of 3 solves that problem neatly. Light, wearable, and easy to reapply, these mists are made for people who like their scent to feel fresh rather than overpowering. Perfect for layering or switching moods through the day, it’s a set that feels playful and personal without committing to just one fragrance personality. For the makeup lover who keeps it neutral but never boring, the Love Earth Everyday Nudes Lip Liner - Pack of 6 is a quiet hero. From soft pinks to deeper browns, this set covers every everyday lip mood. It’s the kind of product you don’t realise you need until you have it and then you use it constantly. Ideal for gifting someone who likes options without the drama. Winter makeup can be tricky, which is where the Praush Beauty Silk Blur Moisturising Primer comes in. This one’s all about balanced hydration without heaviness, smoothness without feeling like too much. It preps the skin effortlessly, making makeup sit better while still feeling comfortable in colder weather. A thoughtful pick for anyone who wants their base to look easy and natural. Adding a little colour to the mix, the Praush Beauty Juicy Jelly Tint – Raspberry Mood brings just the right amount of festive energy. It’s glossy, fresh, and instantly lifts a look without needing much effort. One swipe, and you’re good to go. This is the kind of product that lives in handbags and gets reapplied without a mirror, casual, but effective. For those who love a coordinated routine, the Aqualogica Refresh+ Cherry Blossom Perfume Body Wash, Mist & Gel Moisturizer Gift Set is a total winner. It takes the guesswork out of layering scents by offering a complete ritual in one box. The floral notes are uplifting without being cloying, and the gel moisturizer is a savior for anyone who hates that sticky, heavy post-lotion feeling. It’s fresh, functional, and looks beautiful sitting on a bathroom shelf. And then there’s comfort gifting, done right. The Plum BodyLovin’ Vanilla Caramello Bath & Body Gift Set is warm, cozy, and unapologetically indulgent. It’s perfect for slow winter evenings, self-care days, or simply making daily routines feel nicer. Vanilla with a caramel twist always feels festive, and this set nails that comforting, feel-good vibe. What works about this Nykaa gifting edit is how effortless it feels. Every product fits into real routines, nothing too complicated, nothing too extra. Whether you’re gifting a friend, a family member, or yourself (because that counts), these picks make winter beauty feel approachable, fun, and genuinely usable. And honestly, that’s the best kind of gift there is.
