· · 11 Comments

the keyring and the ittar

Craftsvilla has been around for a long time now but they have changed their look in between and its has been long since that too to be frank. They have amazing collection of crafts and accessories, especially earrings!!! So, don’t forget to check them out.

check out the categories on the left side
The navigation is simple and similar to other websites and the checkout process is smooth. I didn’t need to contact the customer service so no idea about that. Although, a point to mention is that some (or may be all) of the products are sent from manufacturers so your products may reach you at different times which is pain sometimes!!!
I love the earrings
I left the herb at home so no snap

My order included a bottle of thyme herb and a Jasmine Ittar. Thyme is amazing for hair growth. And, I got a keychain as a complimentary gift. Both of the products were so securely wrapped up in a bubble wrap that it became a pain to remove the wraps!! Seriously!! So, you can be sure that your products will reach you safely 🙂 Oh btw, the delivery charges are applicable only on certain products so depends on what you order and only some products have COD option so that can be disappointing for some. Anyway, don’t forget to check it out!!!

PS: I was given voucher for shopping from the site. 

More Gossip!!

· · 15 Comments

Ok, so, I am in no position to do a post today so thought I shall just post a little more of gossip 😀 I hope you don’t get bored of it. Actually, I am returning by tomorrow morning’s train. Yeah, I know, its so tiring and flights are way too easy but then the cost as well adds up so I thought I would rather spend the remainder on clothes or shoes 😀 Worst thing that my wait list is not yet confirmed 🙁 I am just hoping for the best otherwise I have Rajdhani to rely on or otherwise a flight!! UPDATE: I am going by flight and there goes my plan of shopping 🙁
Oh btw, I got Tresmode today, yay!!! Finally, I got peep-toe sandals of my size. Oh yes, footwear is a huge headache for me as I love only flats (my balance is too bad for even a one inch heel if its not a platform)!! And, my size is 3, can you imagine??? Sometimes, I have to shop from kids section!! And, most of the times, the salesman are staring at me that I have such small feet..I am like give me a break!!! So, I have got huge huge haul to share with you guys 🙂 And, yes, I am gonna announce the Aloe Veda winners soon as well after I get confirmation from the PR people.
Btw, for all the would-be brides, I have an advise or a product recommendation as you would like to take it. Forest Essentials Bath & Shower Oils. Yeah, they have four fragrances – Tuberose or rose (not sure), Mashobra Honey and Vanilla, Sandalwood (I guess) and one more. And, all smell divine. I got Tuberose one and Mashobra Honey both. And, whenever I smell them, I die and go to heaven 😀 Yes, they are expensive with around 1000 bucks for 100ml. But, an absolute luxury. So, give your body a treat for your special days 🙂 Chalo, see ya then from Hyderabad. Au Revoir.

Aloeveda Moisturising Bathing Bar Indian Khus with Kewda Extracts {Product Review}

· · 2 Comments

Price: Rs 65 for 100gms

Ingredients
Aloeveda Soap @ Perfect Skin Care for you
Soap noodles transparent (80%), Merquat Plus 3330, Sodium PCA (3%), Sorbitol (2%), Aloevera Gel (2%), Vitamin E, Green Paste, Indian Khus with Kewda extracts.
Pros
– it smells really good!! I don’t know if its Kewda smell or what but if that’s what Kewda smells like, I would love to get an attar of Kewda (I don’t know what Kewda is but I do know that its one of the most famous perfume fragrances of India).
Cons
– it doesn’t do well on the moisturizing front but then it doesn’t really leave the skin scaly dry either so its good for summers. 
– I personally don’t like transparent soaps (so this is not exactly a con).

PS: Product sent by brand.
