bobbi-brown-havana-brights-collection-rs-2600-onwards

Swipe on some summer

Bright, sunny coral dominates Bobbi Brown’s Havana Brights collection. The cream shadow stick gets a dual-ended upgrade; there are illuminating cheek palettes for that sunkissed flush; and a squeezable liquid art stick. With its longwear, hydrating formula, this one is Indian-summer-approved. Bobbi Brown Havana Brights collection, Rs 2,600 onwards

clinique-crayola-chubby-stick-moisturizing-lip-colour-balm

Use crayons on lips…

And we mean Clinique’s Crayola Chubby Sticks. Do we see your inner child jumping with joy, itching to open a new box of crayons, ready to doodle and fill in the gaps with colourful chalk all day? Now you’ll be able to colour within the lines of your pucker. Clinique Crayola Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm, Rs 1,500 each

decleor-neroli-oil-serum

Take your face for aromatherapy

Decléor is sui generis in the skincare world—it bottles aromatherapy in the form of essential oils blended with botanical oils to bring the body’s natural balance back. Pure extracts of neroli, jasmine or rose enter your blood flow to energise, awaken and bring life back to your skin. Try their facial rituals, which start with a consultation and end with you taking home a personalised kit (because you will want to continue feeling its sensorial effects once you leave the spa). My facial—I picked hydration over their anti-ageing and radiance-specific treatments, and got a 90-minute massage—was a combination of delicate and strong movements. This was complemented by a back massage using shiatzu and tai chi techniques. My masseuse ensured the essential oils sunk deep into my skin and mind with her skilled fingers, leaving me with a flushed glow and a relaxed soul. Decléor Aromessence Néroli Hydrating Oil Serum, Rs 2,500

dior-hydra-life-masks-3800-each

Protect your skin’s flora

It’s the upper layer of the skin that the epidermis needs to function well, and Dior has infused haberlea leaf extract and mallow flower to guard it. Try the three three minute masks—fresh jelly to energise, pink clay to refine and mattify and a smooth balm to plump and nourish. There’s also a blue sorbet crème and an exfoliating powder in the mix. Dior Hydra Life Masks, 3,800 each

loccitane-cerisier-pastel-edt-50ml-rs-2990

Smell like cherry blossoms

This tender floral bouquet of the ‘harbingers of spring’ combines the delicateness of flower petals with fruity notes of cherry. To put things into perspective: it’ll smell like the first breath of air you take on a fresh spring morning outdoors. L’Occitane Cerisier Pastel EDT (50ml), Rs 2,990

loreal-paris-true-match-illuminator

Let your face shine…

…with the L’Oréal Illuminators, which come in powder and creamy squeezable form. Swirl up the blush-highlighter compact duo to get a rosy radiance, or pick from the three liquid luminisers based on your glow preference—Ice for cool complexions, Golden for a sunny hue on warm skin tones and Rose for a pale pink flush. L’Oréal Paris True Match Powder Illuminator, Rs 999, L’Oréal Paris True Match Liquid Glow Illuminator, Rs 799

mac-work-it-out-collection

Log on for lipstick…

…to Maccosmetics.in. You no longer have to trawl the malls to restock your M.A.C arsenal. Look out for… exclusive collections, some revealed on the website before they hit the stores; a make-up expert to solve matters of mascara and more; and a whole section dedicated to beauty inspirations. Log on now… for the Work It Out summer collection, a bright mix of coloured mascaras, crystal glosses and pastel lip shades, which makes its debut on the site this month. M.A.C Work It Out collection, Rs 990 onwards

revlon-colorstay-2-in-1-angled-kajal-rs-895

Keep this all-purpose kohl handy

A sleek do-it-all dual-ended liner, Revlon’s ColorStay 2 In 1 Angled Kajal comes with an angled tip so you can go from super skinny to really thick by changing the way you hold it. The other end is a smudge brush, for when you want to smoke out your kohl and give it an evening update. Revlon ColorStay 2 in 1 Angled Kajal, Rs 895

the-body-shop-drops-of-light-pure-healthy-brightening-serum-rs-2450

Slather on some red algae

The plant can survive biting cold temperatures because it’s loaded with minerals, nutrients and Vitamin C. The Body Shop has extracted this unique power from it and infused it into their Drops of Light range that brightens, tones, minimises pores and smoothens, and gets our vote because it’s sensitive-skin-friendly. The Body Shop Drops of Light Pure Healthy Brightening Serum, Rs 2,450

twinkle-khanna-loreal-professionnel

Give your hair colour a helping hand

Next time you visit the salon for mocha highlights, don’t forget a touch of malic acid. It’s what L’Oréal Professionnel’s Smartbond is made of. The in-salon treatment strengthens hair, reconstructs weak bonds, prevents colour fading, and brightens and softens dyed hair—another reason to not delay the makeover.
