Short for ‘Be Yourself,’ BeYu sells 500 cosmetic aids in 40 countries and these are available in India since April 10 across 150 outlets, including top-end general trade stores and large trade chains like Health & Glow, Central, Lifestyle and NewU. And here’s what I’ll be testing – BeYu Black Mirror Long-lasting Eye Liner*.
With what seems like every light base lover in the world declaring their unwavering HG status stamped adoration for Lakme’s CC Complexion Care Cream, the launch of their accompanying CC Colour Transform Cream wasn’t going to be hush hush. It snuck onto counters a month or so ago and surprise surprise a package arrived at my doorstep. But does it live up to its much celebrated Complexion Care sibling…
Well I am always going on about how vulnerable hair is when it’s dry and so for me the Ultimate Finishing Hairbrush* is an absolutely brilliant tool to add to my arsenal of hair styling tools and products. Here’s the low-down:
