Pond's Age Miracle Firm & Lift Range Challenge | Review & Giveaway
The anti-ageing skin care department is filled with tons of items by various brands today, giving the consumer a variety of products to choose from. Among the well known names, Pond's has been a favourite with many women and their Age Miracle range of products have always received a great response. Recently, the brand launched a new line under their Age Miracle range, that focuses on firming and lifting the sagging skin. The 'Firm & Life' line has three products - Targeted Lifting Serum Massager, Face & Neck lifting day cream and an Eye contour lifter. Since the products are targeted at a certain age group (and I clearly don't fit under it), we got a female volunteer (Age: 35) to accept the challenge of testing and experiencing the products for a period of 30 days. Read on to find out more about these products and our volunteer's overall verdict.
What? - Pond's Age Miracle Firm & Lift range: Targeted Lifting Serum Massager, Face and Neck Lifting Cream and Eye Contour Lifter
What does it promise? - This range aims at identifying the need for consumers to care for the sagging skin around their jaw and neckline – termed as the y-contour. The new range provides powerful anti-aging formulations that strengthen and tighten fibres from the inside to reveal a smoother, firmer and lifted y-contour on the outside.
Price: Pond's Age Miracle Firm & Lift Targeted Lifting Serum Massager - Rs 1299 for 25ml
Pond's Age Miracle Firm & Lift Face and Neck Lifting Cream - Rs 999 for 50g
Pond's Age Miracle Firm & Lift Eye Contour Lifter - Rs 899 for 15g
Application: Twist the tube cap (where the word 'on' is written) and squeeze out the required amount of serum. Apply twice a day near the neck and jaw line. As part of a three step skincare routine, this should be your first step.
Texture: Gel based. The formula is very light and absorbs into the skin very quickly.
Experience: The volunteer used this product everyday twice and felt that the targeted areas were more hydrated and firm than before. It does not make the skin feel too tight. Regular application of the serum ensures that the targeted areas are worked on constantly. The packaging was perfect, as the product did not spill.
Application: Apply every morning to a thoroughly cleansed face.
Texture: Very Creamy. This formula is perfect for the ongoing winter season.
Experience: The volunteer used this product once (in the morning) everyday and followed it up with her usual BB cream. The result was hydrated and supple skin, that would stay fresh for a good 5-6 hours (keeping in mind the Mumbai humidity, this experience was decent). Although the texture is creamy, it does not feel greasy or heavy at all. A little bit of the product goes a long way. Again, just like the serum, the cream made my skin feel firm and tight, but did not dry or stretch it in anyway. While our volunteer loved the beautiful glass jar, in which this silky cream is stored, she added that it is unfortunately not very travel friendly.
Application: Apply every morning and night using the cooling applicator, around the eye contour area.
Texture: This product has a cream based texture, which is super smooth and silky. This creamy texture ensures that the eye contour area stays hydrated.
Experience: Our volunteer used this product in the night everyday (and twice a day during the weekend). The cream works very well to make the eye contour area firm and keep it moisturised. This was one of our volunteer's favourite product from the range, as it helped her get rid of some sagging eye bags, that were troubling her since quite sometime. The cooling applicator is a great add-on, as it makes the application process easy and keeps the eye contour area cool (according to our volunteer, this process is almost like a 5 min stress buster for the eyes). The tube is light weight and perfect to carry around and the packaging ensures that the product does not spill.
Final Verdict: So far, our volunteer is satisfied with the experience and has continued with the regular use of these products. The entire range is perfect for all skin types, and with winter setting in, it is a boon for people who issues where their facial skin becomes too tight or stretchy. As mentioned above, our volunteer's favourite product was the Eye contour lifter, but she is happy about making this skincare routine a part of her daily lifestyle. After all, not many products solely focus on firming and lifting, and hence, Pond's has certainly hit the bull's eye with this range.

The Ayurveda Trail | Lever Ayush Review + Giveaway
Everyday, newspapers, e-magazines and websites are filled with stories that speak about the hazards of the kind of lifestyle that we are living today. Maximum stress, minimum sleep, little focus on eating healthy and hours of traveling leaves us feeling tired and drained out. And the number of hours we put at work, without bothering about a break or two? Let's not even get there! All the stress eventually takes a toll on us, leading to severe exhaustion, headache, body ache and if the damage is done on a long term basis, then it can lead to obesity, high blood pressure and even heart diseases. Further, it affects your skin, hair and overall health too.
We are all busy running around and working hard to achieve our life goals. But at the cost of our health? Well, that's not fair. At least not to the body that you have been blessed with. Fortunately, we live in a country that has been blessed with the goodness of Ayurveda, but very few brands make a good use of it, delivering products that can help overall wellbeing. Ayurveda literally means the science of life (Ayur - Life, Veda - Science / Knowledge) and it is this very knowledge of life that can do wonders, if used correctly. Ayurvedic therapies have constantly evolved over more than two millennia and today, Ayurveda has gone global. No wonder, Hindustan Unilever tapped on this opportunity and recently introduced - Ayush Therapy.
What? Lever Ayush Therapy
Price range - Rs 119 onwards
What does it promise? Ayush aims at helping an individual rediscover health and vitality through customized Ayurvedic solutions, every day. Lever Ayush therapy is an exclusive range of personal care products born of the eternal truth of Ayurveda and the proof of performance through modern science. Lever Ayush therapy range comes with some of nature’s healing secrets discovered by Ayurveda, almost 5000 years ago! Lever Ayush range consists of products for skin, hair and pain (joints, headache among others). They are based on authentic Ayurvedic formulations, where the rarest natural ingredients are distilled into the most effective Ayurvedic recipes. Lever Ayush introduces a range of personal care products that are specifically designed for holistic solutions to
problems borne by the pressures of a modern day lifestyle.
What does the range include? Lever Ayush Hair Poshak Oil, Lever Ayush Kesh Poshak Shampoo, Lever Ayush Dandruff Nashak Shampoo, Lever Ayush Narayana Tailam, Lever Ayush Bhringamalakadi Tailam, Lever Ayush Headache Naashak Roll-on among others (To check the entire range and buy products, click here)
In this post, I will be talking about three products from the range: Lever Ayush Keyur Poshak
Shampoo, Lever Ayush Bhringamalakadi Tailam and Lever Ayush Suvarna Poshak Cream.
Lever Ayush Keyur Poshak Shampoo (Price: Rs 310, Quantity: 200ml): The consistency of the shampoo is thick. It has a pleasing herbal fragrance, which is not very strong. The shampoo promises to strengthen your hair roots, ends and leave it feeling shiny, smooth. Although it also claims to include both the goodness of a shampoo and conditioner, my hair felt a little dry without following it up with a separate conditioner. During the second wash, I used the shampoo with a conditioner and the results were perfect. The shampoo does a good job of cleansing the scalp well and does add a nice shine.
Lever Ayush Bhringamalakadi Tailam (Price: Rs 599, Quantity: 100ml): This product was tried by one of our volunteers, a 44-year-old female, with issues of hair fall and premature greying. The hair oil promises to prevent premature greying, baldness, darkens hair and promotes growth. After 2 weeks of regular application (twice a week), we could notice how our volunteer's hair became more luscious and her hair fall had reduced by a good 30 %. Although its too early to talk about the effect it has on premature greying, we definitely feel this oil is one of their star products.
Lever Ayush Suvarna Poshak Cream (Price: Rs 210, Quantity: 50g): This ayurvedic face cream promises to keep blemishes at bay and maintain your original complexion, while making your skin soft and smooth. It also claims to add a subtle glow post application. Again, the product was tried by a volunteer, this time, a 21-year-old female took up the challenge and tested the product regularly for a period of 2 weeks. A small dollop of the cream was massaged gently all over the face and neck. The product was used once a day, for two weeks. The texture of this cream is very smooth, almost silky and feels a lot like talcum powder on the fingertips. The fragrance is strictly okay. While the cream does a decent job of hydrating, it may not be the ideal face cream for winter. The cream gets absorbed quite well and as promised, leaves a subtle glow. Its perfect for all skin types. Though, a little too early for us to judge the 'blemish-free' claim, the Suvarna Poshak cream makes for a strictly average buy.
Verdict: The Lever Ayush range of products do a great job of providing good quality Ayurvedic products at a cost that does not burn your wallet. While we are yet to try most of the joint and other pain easing range of products, we did test the Headache Nashak Roll-on, which is perfect for those who hate balms. Plus, the solution is not very strong, and eases headache quite effectively. From the skin / hair care range, our favourite, most effective product till now has been the Bhringamalakadi Tailam. Even for those who don't suffer from hair issues, a gentle massage with this oil can do wonders to your body. It helps ease stress and transports you to the world of Ayurvedic spas. Overall, we recommend you choose the right set of products and give the Lever Ayush range a try. Zero harmful ingredients, no overpowering fragrances; just the goodness of Ayurveda.
The products are currently available on Amazon India only. But for those who can't wait to get their hands on these wonderful products, we have got a contest just for you!

Review + Giveaway | Lakme Absolute Salon
Starting the new year's eve with work (as usual), back-to-back interviews, meetings, recordings and working on various posts, ideas among several other things kind of took a severe toll on my body. I felt totally drained out a week before the Marathon and had almost thought of giving up. Fortunately, I worked out things in my favor and after some rest, training, I was back on my feet and successfully completed the half marathon at the SCMM (shall do an outfit post featuring the marathon gear that I wore).
Honestly, this review couldn't have come at a better time. Just a day after the marathon, I was back to my usual routine of being on my toes like a ballerina all day. My skin, being the sensitive skin that it is, as usual reacted to the kind of sleepless nights and crazy days schedule that I have had. Lakme Absolute Salon came to my rescue with one of their new packages - The Hangover Haul, which was introduced post NYE. Honestly, the only kind of hangover I can suffer is from work and the folks at the salon promised to pamper my skin and get rid of the stress. Well, that was a good enough incentive. Watch my detailed review of the Hangover Haul and get set to win a chance to experience this service yourself at a Lakme Absolute Salon near you.

Independence Day contest with India Circus
The headline itself might have got you excited, right? But, before everything else, here's wishing my beloved country and the fellow country women and men a very Happy Independence Day. Personally, I have never been the type of a person who wakes up to pay a tribute to the martyrs only once a year. It is because of their sacrifice that we have been living a good life. So instead of cribbing about the general lifestyle of this country, spare a minute and think about the army men, who step out to protect our country without thinking twice. Lots of respect and a big salute to all our Jawans out there!
And now, coming to the contest. Diary of a Dancebee is proud to associate with one of India's most amazing and reputed designers, Krsna Mehta, and his brand India Circus, for an Independence Day contest on the blog. It's the perfect collaboration, because the brand, known for its quirky products, proudly flaunts the country's name too. Wanna participate and win a product from their new collection? Read on.
TIGI Bed Head Contest + Ego Boost Leave In Review
It's that time of the year when you often crib about bad hair days and how the humidity, (at least, that's the main concern in Mumbai) wind and other elements ruin your hairstyle everyday. The result? Residue builds up, your hair becomes messy, some even start dealing with major dandruff problems among others. But, with the use of good hair care and styling products (also don't forget, a good diet), you can keep the unnecessary stress away. So, while I have been loving the Re-energize shampoo and conditioner by Bed Head TIGI, I recently tried the Ego Boost split end mender - leave in conditioner. And boy! What a product.
Diary of a Dancebee is collaborating with TIGI Bed Head to give two lucky winners a super exciting gift hamper each. Want to know more? Read on.
Summer Fiesta with Nivea India contest
It's time to go sleeveless! Well, I am not giving you cliche advice that summer is here and this weather is making you dump all your full sleeve t-shirts and blouses in some corner of your wardrobe (which is true, but still). But Nivea India's whitening deo is giving you the chance to step out and show off your best sleeveless outfits, without worrying about your underarms.
No one here is promising you super white underarms overnight. But this product will prevent your underarm skin area from further darkening, while controlling perspiration and leaving your with a refreshing fragrance. All this, while working on giving you even toned underarms and that too, without any irritation (0% alcohol, duh!). How do I know? Well, I have tested this product for two weeks and since my skin is super sensitive, Nivea whitening deodorant came like a miracle product. Stays on for several hours and doesn't make your skin feel too sticky.
Sounds good, right? Well, Diary of a Dancebee has collaborated with Nivea India for a fun, month long contest called 'Summer Fiesta With Nivea India' and four lucky winners stand to win exciting prizes.
Read on for more details.Nivea India and Diary of a Dancebee - Valentine's Day Contest

Save your Skin from the October heat
Rains have almost bid adieu and October heat has left people across the country feeling tired. It's not just your body, but skin and hair as well that suffer the wrath of this terrible heat. With the temperature soaring and the humidity sinking fast , how do you keep yourself looking beautiful and healthy for Diwali, which is coming up next month?
Here are a few tips that can save your skin and hair from the crazy October heat:
1. Protect your skin from the sun: Save your skin from the harsh sun, especially in the afternoon. Use a scarf to cover your face during the peak hours (10 am to 3 pm) or carry a hat with you. A good sunscreen lotion or cream is a must.
.jpg)
Dancebee Recommends
2. Lesser is better: Heavy moisturisers and too much make up may lead to your pores getting clogged up and might leave your skin heavy and greasy. Let it breathe. Buy a good face wash and wash it twice a day (Make sure you don't over do it, as it can strip off the essential oils from your skin). Use water- based products, and avoid cream- based ones.
Dancebee Recommends
3. Let your clothes do the talking: Due to the humidity, you might end up having rashes on your skin if you wear tight clothes or clothes which are made up of synthetic fabric. Stick to clothes made of Cotton or something lighter, that is airy and comfortable. Who says you can't follow the top trends during the October heat? Of course you can! Opt for prints or go for the minimalist look, the choice is yours.
4. Hair Care is a Must: Due to the heat, your hair might turn coarse and dry. Invest in a good serum or leave in conditioner, which can protect your hair. Also, avoid washing your hair everyday. Twice or thrice a week will do. Use a shampoo that cleanses your scalp and follow it up with a conditioner or mask, which will keep your locks healthy and soft. If you have long hair, tie them up into a pony or roll them up into a bun while travelling, especially if you are drive a bike. This protects your hair from the sun. Opt for a short crop or go for a trim, your hair needs a salon appointment during the October heat!
Hope you will benefit from this post, as the October heat might extend till the first fortnight of November (According to the weather bureaus in India).
Winner of the #SayYesToColour contest is...
