Imran Khan Kurtas by MK Nation!


Cybil in Imran Khan Kurta @ FSPW

 How politically Fashionable! 
Hats off to Maheen Kardar for coming up with this wonderful idea right before elections. 
Young generation, most of it ( I like to believe that) support Imran Khan & these Imran's face printed kurtas are extremely popular these days. I have seen so many people wearing these kurtas.
MK Nation by Karma showcased these Imran kurtas at PSFW in their high-street collection titled ‘Ode to Lahore’.

Coral Splash by The Body Shop!






The Body Shop lipstick in Coral Splash # 66



Hello Dear Readers! 
I believe you have been well, today I am reviewing a lipstick by The Body Shop. 
 I have mine in # 66 which is named Coral Splash. 

product description
Our classic lipstick gives intense, moisturising colour that lasts.
  • Lasting colour
  • Moisturising
  • Dermatologically tested
 Well this sure is a different color and I love how it looks on me. This is a kind of color which looks absolutely divine at night time in parties with smokey eye & even rocks at day time. The color of the lipstick is orangish coral with semi sheer finish I don't like the silver bullet tube of it, I think the packaging could have been better.
  The pigmentation of the lipstick is good but I find it hard to apply, the lipstick does not slip easily. It takes few hard swipes across my lips to get the actual color. Staying power is average the longest I have worn it is for three hours.
It is not moisturizing for sure but doesn't dry out my lips. It has some faint kind of smell to it too which is not an issue for me because it stays in the tube. In my opinion it is a good spring summer shade. I would recommend you to buy it if you are into coral shades.  
 You can get it from any outlet of The Body Shop its priced at PKR: 1250 
 






  












In the above picture you can see how it wears on me. Upper picture is taken in Yellow lighting and the lower picture is taken in day light. I am planning to buy another shade which is known as pink ginger. Have you tried this one? Or any other Body Shop Lipstick? Any Recommendations? 
P.S  I am working very hard on my photography skills.
