ReplyDeleteAnjum
congrats on the awards.
ReplyDeletetry soaking the onions in warm water before you cut them (5-10 mins). it negates most of the effects of the onion, to stop you from crying
ReplyDeleteThank you all for the appreciation and well wishes.

ReplyDeleteassk humaira
ReplyDeletecongrats on all awards and keep up good work. it was nice to know abt u.
i also enjoy makeup and dressing perfectly, the dress color, mk/u, jewellary , hairdo, sandals butttttt after i became a mom and mother of toddler boy, i can hardly give time.
just keeps a lipstick in purse. no regrets can catch up old habits soon.
i usually do cholle ur way but recently i learnt that if u blend the sauted onion tomato with all masala and add to chick peas and cook for 20 mnts, the taste really comes good like a professional. so i try doing this way.
also since u like so much about mk/u ,can u suggest suggest which brands, shades goes well with desi complexion in usa .
i use to luv lakmebrand shades in india, eye color/ blushes , lip colors. they blend so well with desi complexion.i wish i could buy them here in usa again but not available
thx
wishing u ramadan mubarak ahead

rizruby, What a coincidence, I used to love lakme products in India. After coming to US I experimented with a lot of brands but in my opinion MAC is the best. Its mid-range price wise but they have amazing products especially for desi skin. Try there eye shadows in expensive pink, cranberry ,humid and goldmine. The have a unbelievable collection of lipsticks too. Although I love them and spend on them, it gets expensive sometimes. I also like loreal Hip products and Nyx products jab kadhki chal rahi ho to! :), Ramadan mubarak to you too!.
ReplyDeleteassk humaira
ReplyDeletethanks for info. i shall try these brands and shades in future.i saw mac products in macys store recently .
i also agree .i like loreal products personaly especially their endless 12 hr lipstick is perfect for parties, lipcolor stays for really long time even after eating oily food. i feel revlon,covergirl shades are not good for desicomplexion.
i luv to color my nails with mehendi, i try occassionaly but the nailcolor does not come real dark.
do u know where i can get nail mehendi especially.
thx
take care
