Recently I went to Clover Center in Camp, Pune which is a
great place with lots of boutiques that have some amazing clothes, shoes, bags
and of course makeup. The basement is filled with small tailoring shops and boutiques.
It also has a beauty center which has a number of products which include daily
essentials to all your makeup products. Moreover it also has small counters of
your favorite drugstore brands like Revlon, Bourjois, Maxfactor and Faces among
others. It also has Body shop products, OPI nailpolishes, Elf products and some
cheap brands of cosmetics as well. Needless to stay I went berserk roaming
around the place till I finally picked up an Elf blending brush and a Faces
Eyeshadow brush from there.
Here are the pics:
Elf Blending Brush
(Price: INR 149)
Well, it is quite nice considering the price tag. I know it
is not comparable to a Mac brush but then it is quite good for eye makeup
starters like me. The bristles are denly packed and a bit scratchy. A close
dupe and probably a much better one would be Vega PB15 professional eyeshadow
brush.
Faces Eyeshadow Brush
(Price: INR 99)
This one is surprisingly quite good. The brush is densely
packed and the bristles are soft. It also picks up the eyeshadow quite well.
Moreover the shape makes it easier to pat on and blend eyeshadow.
I also got an eyeshadow and a cracking nail polish from,
Bette, a shoe and bag shop in Clover
Center
Meylon Eyeshadow
(Price: INR 130)
This is so pretty and resembles those baked mineral
eyeshadows out there. The color is a sparkly purple and the texture of this
eyeshadow is a nice satiny smooth. I don’t know where you can find it but I
guess most beauty centers have this and sometimes Fashion and You has a sale on
Meylon products. I also saw it on a online deals site but the price was
exorbitant.
Miss Claire Crackle
Nail Polish (Price: INR 225)
I spotted a crackle nail polish on the counter and
immediately grabbed one even though I don’t do any nail art but this seemed
easy. There are many colors available and the price is great as well.
