Celebrating #SkinAwarenessMonth with Galderma

Posted on 12/08/202223/08/2022by Dollie

While I have always loved makeup, my biggest beauty passion has always been skincare. This passion was fuelled when, as a teen, I used to read French Elle and Vogue which had detailed articles on how to identify your skin type and the right products to use for it.  This was in the 90s, before […]

Dermafique Bio-Cellulose Face Masque

Winter time is when I love to pamper my skin with masks; the heat and humidity of summers and monsoons are perfect for clay masks but the dry, cool weather of winters makes me bring out my Bio cellulose masks for my twice a week pampering session and some intense burst of hydration. Recently, I […]

With the current heatwave, all I want to wear at h With the current heatwave, all I want to wear at home are comfy yet cute co-ords that are super light & airy, feel cooling on the skin, and that don’t require any lingerie underneath (if you know what I mean). These tick all the boxes and have become my summer uniform. 

If you’re like me and don’t prefer to wear shorts at home for whatever reason, trust me, you will love these! 

Which print did you like most? 

Comment below for link and I’ll DM the link to you. 🔗

Mother’s Day spent the way my heart loves most - s Mother’s Day spent the way my heart loves most - slow conversations, laughter across the table, and a beautiful brunch with my favourite people. 

Still not over this beautiful Mother’s Day brunch at The Merchants with indulgent bites, endless desserts, live music, and a spread that no camera can do justice to. 

Thank you @themerchants.mumbai, for the warm hospitality and for making me feel so special. Can’t wait to visit again for an indulgent & leisurely Sunday brunch 💖

Fig-Tea Intense by @nicolaiparfumeurcreateur is like escaping the heat to a Mediterranean orchard  where a cool breeze caresses you  as you sit under the tree in the dappled sunlight. 

With just a hint of sweetness, the refreshing citrus, sparkling tea notes, sun-drenched fig, and elegant woody notes encapsulate the “Mediterranean summer vibe” and make it perfectly unisex as well as just right for the summer ✨

Top notes: Mandarin, Orange, Lemon and Osmanthus
Middle notes: Peach, Fig, Davana, Jasmine and Brazilian Rosewood
Base notes: Guaiac Wood, Amber, Mate and Oakmoss.

Maison Nicolai is such an underrated fragrance house, and I love so many of their creations, including their candles! You can check out their fragrances at @mdpindofficial in India.

Date night, but make it old-world Bombay. ✨ Tucke Date night, but make it old-world Bombay. ✨

Tucked inside a restored heritage bungalow in the heart of South Bombay, Neuma feels less like a restaurant and more like stepping into an evening from another era ; dimly lit corners, beautiful cocktails, soulful music, and conversations that linger long after dessert. 🕯️🍸

Some places don’t just serve food, they set a mood. And Neuma does it effortlessly. ♥️

Elegant and modest. Rooted in my culture and herit Elegant and modest. Rooted in my culture and heritage. Not costume, not cliché - an homage to the hands that carved stories into stone. 

I’m so in LOVE with what @chatgptindia created for me, I really, really, REALLY wish I could somehow make this outfit a reality and wear it. 

What do you think of it?

Because this phase of life isn’t about “anti-aging”…
it’s about feeling comfortable, confident, and cared for.

Sun-kissed moments, fresh blooms, and celebrating Sun-kissed moments, fresh blooms, and celebrating the superwomen a.k.a moms, with @fossil.in 💛

Spent the loveliest afternoon at Fossil’s Mother’s Day event - think lemony hues, vintage charm, and little details that made it all feel so special. My favourites from the new collection - Carlie (slide 3 & 4), Sloane (slide 6 & 7) & Raquel Mini (slide 8) 🩷

Here’s to timeless style, beautiful memories, and the kind of love that never goes out of fashion. ✨

Still in a food coma after the incredible, flavour Still in a food coma after the incredible, flavourful lunch at @piccolinotaproom. 

This food at pure vegetarian Italian restaurant makes the drive to Navi Mumbai totally worth it. An exhaustive  menu featuring delectable antipasti to perfectly crafted pastas, authentic Napoli & Romana pizzas to flavourful risottos, a beverage menu with a great selection of craft beers, sangrias as well as zero-proof cocktails, and an extensive coffee menu! 

One visit is simply not enough to sample all the yumminess, and I can’t wait to visit again.
