Things I Am Loving Lately...

Google Image

Since, it is a month of love and things related to love, I thought why not throw in a post about things I've been loving lately...

Well, I know the whole buzz about Valentines' Day and all the days preceding to it are not so much related about loving "things", so much as loving a person or people or even yourself. But, I am no expert on the subject to write anything lovey-dovey, so I will do what I think I know best, talk about things I have loved recently.

Reading
I won't classify myself to be a voracious reader or anything close to that, but every now and then, I enjoy a good book. Reading is a great way to realize how simple life can be, without all the complexities of the wifi and social media. I read a book by Sudha Murty - Wise And Otherwise, it was a good start to begin my reading game again, as it is a compilation of 51 short stories, mostly based on her experience and observations about day to day life. I am currently reading Homo Deus by Yuval Noah Harari - toughie! but I was totally intrigued by the subject, I couldn't convince myself to pick up Sapiens by him (not a big fan of the past!) and just to remind myself that reading need not be all serious, I am also digging on One Indian Girl by Chetan Bhagat - I make sure I pick his books, you never know which one might turn into a film, usually the price of the movie ticket is more than the book, it just helps me skip the movie ;)



Series
I recently got hooked onto Amazon Prime and my life has changed. I am so intimidated by the variety and collection it has to offer, sometimes I end up watching nothing because I cannot decide what to watch and what to skip and just feel miserable that I have so much to catch up :P I am currently loving the series Mom, and I so love the mother-daughter duo - they can crack up the most serious situations to a joke, you never imagined could be made a joke about. On the levels of humor, I am so so so loving, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel - I LOVE Rachel Brosnahan - aka Miriam Midge Maisel - I never knew a setup in the late 1950's could be portrayed so well in the recent times. Totally loving these series.



Music App 
Well, I love music at all times, but I am particularly loving the app - Saavn. I have been using this app non-stop, I think it has some amazing collection of songs, and the app works fantastic on the go. For the first time, I have no songs on my phone - this has never happened, thanks to Saavn.

Trying new cuisines/food items
Now, this is something I believe, I will do lifelong, well trying out new restaurants is not big deal, read in a few reviews, if something looks good, you may try out. These days, I am trying this whole new cuisine/new food experiments thing, I am one of those people who finds it difficult to try something out of the box when it comes to eating. Some weekends, I try to give different kinds of food a try. Some of the dishes which I have tried so far in 2018, which I never had before are Parsi food, Sushi, Udon noodles and Rendang curry. 

Yummies I tried lately
New Vivo 7+
I am not a mobile phone addict, I like a no maintenance, hassle-free phone and that is what Vivo 7+ proved to be. I usually enjoy phones with big screen and sleek look. It takes me a while to get used to and totally love a new phone, but not with this one. I am hooked onto it.

Lotus Professional Phyto-Rx Whitening & Brightening Serum Review

I have always liked a good Lotus product every now and then. Sometime during the start of winters I decided to include serums in my skincare routine, now a dry skin baby like me needs to think a couple of times before adding something new to my skincare routine so as to not further dry my skin and that too in winters. I started using the  Lotus Professional Phyto-Rx Whitening & Brightening Serum from December last year and I was using it on alternate days and night, as I do not believe using something new regularly just to see how my skin is reacting in the first few days. I picked this product from the Nykaa winter sale and managed to get a good discount as well. The MRP is INR 545 for 30ml and usually you do end up getting discount of 20-25% on Nykaa. Though, it is not a super pricey product, discounts always help while purchasing a "never tried before" product. I was waiting to use it for a month or so, before I could share my two cents on it. Now abou...

Makeup Revolution - Death By Chocolate

Today I will be reviewing on the Makeup Revolution - Death By Chocolate palette. This palette is well known for it being a dupe for the Too Faced - Chocolate Bar palette; however, in a much inexpensive option. There have been many arguments of it being a dupe or it not being a dupe, while weighing the pros n cons of each of the product. If you ask me, which is the better one? I do not know the answer, because I am yet to take the plunge on the pricier one. Anyway, I am in complete awe of this product, be it the packaging, the pigmentation, the color shade, the variety of matte and shimmers and mostly importantly the way it smells - So So So Wonderful!  Shade Names: Left to right Top Row: White Light, Don't Let Go, Break Me Up, Consume Me, All is Lost Middle Row: Lick Me, Fool's Gold, One More Bar, Devour Me, Tear The Wrapper, Love You to Death Bottom Row: Pray for Me, Dipped, Tease Me, Set Me Free, Bring Down Angels Above, is my palette - y...

Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Color - Shade Cali Rose

I won't consider myself as a total lipstick junkie, but, yeah l ipsticks are my thing, no doubt, and no matter how I have this "love at first sight" obsession with new lip products, I always kinda make the lipstick and my relationship almost "playing hard to get" till I really I start using it. For this baby - I gave up, I GAVE UP! I AM USING IT NON-STOP, ever since I bought it. There are total 20 shades to choose from and the colors ranges from pink-peach, coral nude tones, to rosy pinks, to some really hot reds and then to those more vampy typa shades in burgundy and maroon. Which means, there is at least one for everyone in the bucket. Each of these beauties will cost your pocket INR 1700 for 3.4g of product, which in my opinion, is pretty decent for a high-end brand of lipstick.  The packaging itself is this classy Bobbi Brown black matte case with the center  portion of the case depicting the color of the product. This really helps whe...
