I am Tanveer Parmar and I am addicted to blush.. and eyeliners too, and glosses as well! Ok, I admit it, I go whole hog when it comes to make-up and skin care. And as you must have guessed this blog is all about Indian Makeup and skin care products.
I started this blog in October 2008 because I just could not find any good blogs that reviewed Indian Makeup or cosmetics. Most of them featured products I just couldn't find here, it was all trial and error for me. So I thought of sharing what I liked, and what I didn't like via this blog so that others could take informed decisions about what they were getting.
On this blog I review Indian products, share skin care & make up tips and I am also available to answer any questions that you may have about skincare & make-up.
I do not sell or represent any product line.
Every single product reviewed on the blog has been bought by me with my hard earned money, unless other wise explicitly stated at the bottom of the post.
All reviews are based on my personal opinion and all products I have tested on myself as a consumer. If you use or plan to purchase a product highlighted on my blog, you may have a different reaction if you tend to have sensitive skin, or may have a different experience with the product. The information contained in this website is for general information purposes only.
If you want me to review any of your products / product line, please contact me through my comments forum or mail me at tanveer.parmar@gmail.com
I have certain rules of engagement for products that you send for review. Please read these carefully before you send a product for review:
1. I don't do paid reviews. All the products reviewed on this site have been paid for by me. Products that are sent for consideration have the same information listed clearly in big, bold letters below the post. I do not accept compensation for product reviews
2. I take a minimum of 21 days to test the said product before writing a review. This shall not be expedited under any circumstances.
3. Products / Samples sent to me are for consideration only. I do not provide any guarantee of review, positive or negative.
4. The review will not be submitted to the company / PR for audit or for any kind of revision. I retain the final say on the review & its contents.
I can be rather demanding from my products and opinionated (because it my hard earned money and my skin we are talking here about) but you don't have to agree with everything I say, of course.
A little on my background - I have a Masters in Microbiology from Mumbai University, and a MBA from NMIMS (Narsee Monjee) in HR (Batch 2006 - 2008).
I hope you have a good time reading this blog.
Do let me know if you have any specific queries or requests.

Guidelines for Commenting
Comments that violate the following guidelines may be deleted.
Comments that violate the following guidelines may be deleted.
1. Don’t make personal attacks. If you’re not smart enough to win an argument without resorting to calling someone names maybe you should work on your rhetorical skills. This is not a forum for you to vent out against someone else. Please do that in your own personal space.
2. Don’t respond to trolls. If someone is clearly posting a comment with the intention of starting a fight, or posting completely wrong, pseudoscientific crap, just ignore them. While their comments may agitate you to respond, please understand that is exactly what these trolls are looking for. A response.
3. In general, let’s stay away from long, drawn-out arguments and fights. You have made your point, move on. Let's not pull each other's hair out on which is the best brand for almond oil.
4. Don’t just dismiss others’ views. Just like you wouldn't want anyone to dismiss your views.
5. Any ridiculously off-topic comments will also be deleted. If we are talking about the best red lipstick for Indian women, there is no need to bring up the best places to get Chinese food in your area.
