Play Date With Dove!

Hello all you beautiful people,

So I had a fab Sunday thanks to the amazing Dove event hosted by Indiblogger.in. It was held at J W Marriot and I had such a ball that I had to share it with you guys.

  Great ambiance, pretty lamps completed the decor 

Keeping in line with Dove’s colors, the dress code was white, I wore a white top with blue denims (classic and my favourite combo)

OFTD : White top with blue denims

Upon arriving, we were given different coloured wrist bands based on which we were divided into 12 groups of 10 each. Then we chose some playful names for our groups like the big bang, the bun games, fringe benefits etc. My group was called messy buns ;) We spent sometime to know our team mates better and then began the games!

 Group photos, can you spot me?

The first activity was a Zumba session where Zumba trainers taught us some moves. This really got the crowd pumped and being the first Zumba session for most of us including me, it was a great experience. The energy in the room was infectious and set the ball rolling for a fun filled evening.

Up next was a a HUGE pool with colourful balls in it and it also had some grey coloured balls with Dove written on them. Groups of five could play the game at a time, 3 inside the pool collecting the grey Dove balls and 2 standing outside with buckets to catch those balls. There was great team spirit and everyone was cheering for one another. Our team collected 182 balls!

Next on the fun list was a larger than life jigsaw puzzle which had to be completed in the least amount of time possible.Our team completed it in less than 3 minutes.

Puzzle solving :)


The next game was called 'Hips Don’t Lie' where we had to hula hoop for the longest time to win. This game was really fun as none of us knew how to do it but we all tried and had a good laugh over it.

After that it was time for some hair play. We were given 4 minutes each to style each other's hair. There were also some pretty accessories to help us jazz up the look.

After that it was time for some pampering at the Dove Salon, a massive room with mirrors all around. I got my hair styled by Yasmine into pretty waves. I think she did a great job. For me, this was the highlight of my day, it completely transformed my look.

Then we moved to the pool side for the bartender game where a bartender gave us tips on how to mix drinks, then 2 people from each team were called, one to mix the drink and the other to taste it. We were judged on who made the finest drink. Our team came in third :)

And finally it was time for dinner, a huge spread of amazing food followed by some awesome desserts. I couldn't get enough of the mud pies.

Lastly was the Award Ceremony where the team with highest points won a gift voucher worth Rs. 5000 that can be claimed at any Lakme Salon.

But before the day finally ended, there was one last game where the participant had go inside a crystal maze and collect Dove birdies. I very enthusiastically volunteered to play the game and had a blast. It reminded me of this game show called Crystal Maze, it used to come back in the day in early 90's. Have any of you seen it? 
Since my opponent and I had collected almost the number of Doves we both won a voucher, yay!!

Finally the games ended and the dance floor was thrown open, we danced for almost 2 hours!! 

Overall it was a really fun event, I made a lot of crazy friends (see the pictures below for proof) and it was very well organized by Dove and Indiblogger.in.  Honestly I didn't expect it to be so much fun but it turned out to be 'legen wait for it dary!'

P.S. Thank you for the hamper and I loved the Dove pin, will be wearing it for sure :)

7 Tips for Keeping Your Makeup Fresh During Summer

Hello girls,

Isn’t this heat making you crazy? I just don’t feel like getting out of my house anymore. Even applying makeup feels like a task as you need to make sure you touch it up every few hours as it tends to melt in this season.
Today I’m going to share with you some simple tips which I follow that can come handy during summer.


1. FOUNDATION
Apply foundation only where you need it and if you can, skip it altogether! Especially in the summer, do not over-apply. If you must wear foundation then switch to a light, oil-free foundation or mineral foundation.
2. PRIMER
If you are someone who likes to apply full makeup, then a primer is your best friend as this product is designed to prep your face for makeup. It helps keep your color vibrant and prevent the make up from sliding or creasing. I feel a primer must be applied every time you put on any kind of make up so that you do not have to worry about the touch ups.
3. WATER SPRAY
A water spray has been an age old method of keeping your makeup fresh in the heat. So if your makeup tends to fade very quickly in the hot weather, carry one of these little sprays in your bag, trust me, it’ll make you feel fresh and presentable at any hour of the day.
4. BLOTTING PAPERS
Blotting paper is a really handy tool in hot weather. Using pressed powder every time your skin shines can be quite a hassle. Whereas using a blotting paper makes more sense as it will just soak up the oil and make you look fresh without looking too powdered.
5. WATERPROOF MASCARA
Waterproof mascara is a total must have in hot weather. This is helpful as when you wash your face or use water spray you don't want mascara streaking your face. To avoid such a situation the waterproof mascara works best.
6. LIP GLOSS
Switch your favourite lipsticks with lip gloss in summer. These are much lighter, softer and can be easily reapplied if necessary and they also look better in the heat and sun, when lipsticks can just seem too ´heavy´. You can also try some tinted gloss to add some nice colour to your lips.
7. MINIMISE
The easiest way to avoid problems with makeup in this season is to minimize what you use. That’s what I go for. The lesser you apply the lesser is the chance of it getting smudged or spoilt. 

So girls, make your summer routine a simple one, probably just a tinted moisturizer or face shimmer to give your skin a nice and fresh glow.
Just remember to keep it light and simple. I hope these tips have helped you. Do let me know if you have any other ways of looking fresh in this terrible heat in the comments section below. I'd love to know :)Till then, happy summer from FOMO Fashion On My Own

An Insight into the world of TIGI !!!

Hello ladies,

So last week I attended a blogger's meet at the TIGI zone in Mumbai and got an insight into the world of TIGI by hair experts Keiron Webb and Rohit Solanki.

    Keiron Webb from TIGI's international Creative Team and Rohit Solanki from TIGI India

For those of you who don't know, TIGI is a high end hair care brand with a lot of sub brands but at the moment only products from their Bed Head and S Factor range are available in India.

Bed Head TIGI  is all about youth culture, attitude and texture, one look at their product names and packaging and you'll know what I mean :)

 Product range of Bed Head TIGI

The packaging is so colorful and lively, I had to put two pictures :)

Until now Bed Head's main strength used to be the wide range of styling products used for smoothing (After Party), frizz control (Control Freak), shine (Head Rush), volumizing (Superstar), thickening (Small Talk) and hairsprays (Masterpiece, Fun Times, Hard Head etc.)

But after joining hands with HUL who invested a good amount in R & D, Bed Head has many wash & care products ranging from daily (Elasticate), color care (Dumb Blonde) to severely damaged hair (Urban Antidotes) to boast about.

But the styling products which caught my attention were candy fixations! And true to their name, they are made of sucrose. Interesting right? It's available in Mega Whip (texture), Sugar Dust (instant volume), Totally Baked (Preps blow-drys), Sugar Shock (waves) and Glaze Haze (fight humidity)

Bed Head's Candy Fixation range on the top shelf and more TIGI products.

In fact Keiron was generous enough to demonstrate the right use of some of the Bed Head products and the results were quite true to the claims.

Now coming to the other brand S Factor, this one is more about exemplifying female beauty giving you, soft, shiny, silky, smooth and sensational hair!! S Factor has wash & care products for daily use, repair, color protection and smoothing as well as products for shine with pretty names like Diamond Dreams, Dream Drops etc. and styling products 

Products from the S Factor range

Unfortunately, for this range it was a quick run through as we were pressed for time. But it sounded promising. And if I happen to get my hands onto them, I'll keep you guys posted :)

I also got some Bed Head goodies, Ego Boost which is a leave in conditioner and split-end mender and Sugar Dust. I'll try them soon and share my experience with you'll.
