Not Just Beauty

Hello dear readers 🙂

Last time, I shared my makeover with you. Today, I want to share an amazing life-changing beauty product with you.

Some of us have skin problems like vitiligo / leucoderma, acne scars, big birth marks, tattoos or even dark circles that we would like to conceal. What if I told you that I have the solution to your problems? SCX-3200_20150526_13185101 - Copy creme The star of the range is the Dermacolor Camouflage Creme above. The creme works as an amazing concealer and gives great coverage. You can opt for light, medium to full coverage, fully dependent on how YOU use it 😀 IMG_20150528_185428096 After applying the crème, pat it with the Dermacolor Fixing Powder. After the powder, use the Fixing Spray. See the results for yourself! SCX-3200_20150526_13185101 NO Photoshop was used on this picture. Can you believe it? 😮 Dermacolor is THAT GOOD!

There is a huge range of shades available in Derma and suits all skin types from oily to dry – you can easily find your match. This is also a unisex product 🙂

Besides concealing serious imperfections, Derma can be used for everyday makeup as well. Speaking from my makeover experience, I felt that the products were quite light on my skin and felt wearable for every day. derma_chart Also, this range is great value for money. The formula is waterproof and UV shielding, and Kryolan gives good quantity for reasonable price.  For example, the creme costs 350 INR for 4ml and 1500 INR for 15ml. The fixing powder costs just 400 INR for 20g. These will easily last for months!

I must say, Kryolan has impressed me. They produce professional makeup not only for the camera, but also for regular people like me and you ^^’

You can get Dermacolor products at Kryolan City, Shop # 2, Silver Pearl Building, Waterfield Road, Bandra (West), Mumbai (022-26551713).

ALSO, stay tuned for upcoming Giveaways! I will be giving away a Dermacolor fixing powder along with other goodies! Love from Shruti ❤
