Products We Swear By: POPxo Editors On That One Beauty Purchase They LOVE!

For the first time, we’ve got POPxo Editors to reveal the one beauty product they’ll always go back for! From hair to skin care products, each of them has listed that one holy grail product that’s close to their heart. Eager to know what they are? Read on to find out!

1. BBlunt Born Again Shampoo

“I have to say, ever since I started using BBlunt products, I haven’t looked back! The shampoo is just perfect for my hair and makes it silky smooth after every wash. I’ve had bad luck with shampoos and just couldn’t find the right one. But this one has been by my side for a while now. And I couldn’t have asked for a better one. After all, finding the right shampoo for your hair is almost like finding the right man…sometimes even better!”

Go ahead and give it a shot and see how it works for you. Buy it here for Rs 510.

2. Nivea Original Care Lip Balm

“Lip balm is my best friend, some might call me a ‘junkie’ but to those people, I would like to say some choice words with my super moisturised pout. I will never leave the supermarket without buying a new lip balm even though I have too many of them at home. We all have been through this situation, where we aren’t ever able to finish a chapstick and we either lose it before that happens or we just stop using it. But my Nivea Original Care Lip Balm (which was earlier called Essential Care), is that one balm that I have finished (yes, right to the bottom) and have repurchased at least 9 times if not more. I do not use this balm just as a lip treatment, but also as an under-eye cream, cuticle cream and even as a gloss.”

I totally love this one and so will you! Get it here for Rs 98.

3. Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant

“I’ve had blackheads on my nose for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I have used harsh scrubs which were usually too abrasive, leading to reddening, or sometimes open pores. I started using Dermalogica’s Daily Microfoliant a few years ago and my skin hasn’t felt better! It’s super fine in texture so the granules never cause open pores. Apart from the texture, the formula has salicylic acid and rice extracts that help clean up your act.”

Bring it home from here for Rs 975.

4. Kerastase Nutritive Oleo-Curl Intense Mask

“This is a boon to any curly haired girl who is struggling to find a conditioner that not only tames the fluff but also adds beautiful shine to the hair. I have used it for over 4 years now, and can’t even dream of a life without it in my vanity. It complements coloured and chemically-treated hair too, which is always a plus! I sometimes even buy this mask in bulk, just to avoid being in a tricky situation.”

Curly haired gals, get this miracle product here for 3,118 Rs.

5. Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Even Finish Foundation

“Finding a foundation that I actually love was not easy for me. I tried a couple of brands before finally finding this one. I’m not a make-up pro and to find something that gives me great looking skin without much effort was a blessing! It glides on nice and smooth and doesn’t look cakey, even if I’ve gone a little overboard. Though it is a little expensive, the bottle lasts really long so you won’t mind spending that sort of money. I’ve bought it thrice already and I’m not looking for a change anytime soon!”

Lay the foundation (not literally), buy it here for 4,750.

– Manasvi Jaitly, Wedding Editor

6.  Benefit -They’re Real! Mascara

“After years of (self-motivated) research, I’m the go-to person for any fashion/ beauty woes. So when I tell you that I’ve found the best mascara, I’d take my word for it.  Benefit’s named their best product (yes, I’ve tried quite a few) after the sentence you’re most likely to use after applying it – ‘I Swear They’re Real!’. It’s that one product that gives my lashes a ton of volume, without making them look clumpy. The mascara comes with a brilliant wand, with thick bristles as well as smaller ones to tackle baby lashes.The power of a perfect mascara is that it has the ability to make your eyes look wider, instantly. On a Monday morning, when I’m at my lazy best, I put on a swipe of it, slather on some sunscreen and I’m ready to take on the week!”  

Want to check it out for yourself? Pick it up here for Rs 1,835!

7. Matrix Biolage Smooth Proof Avocado Deep Smoothing Serum

“The texture of my hair is really frizzy and dry. So, to find a serum which helps me set my hair for a good couple of hours was quite the task. After trying several beauty products, I decided to give the Matrix Biolage Serum a try, and boy did it work wonders for my hair! Its light, non-sticky texture and natural ingredients like Avocado and Grape-seed oil make my hair frizz-free even in the most humid weather. I couldn’t recommend it enough!”

Smooth AF hair is waiting for you here for Rs 295.

– Amrita Paul, Junior Lifestyle Editor

8. Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Concentrate – Night Care Facial Oil

“I’m not big on oils on my face. However, this particular product by Kiehl’s has converted me and how! A few drops before bed at night really opened my eyes up to the difference in my skin. It became firmer, clearer and the complexion improved too. I looked fresher every morning and, as a result, felt a lot better. Because I’m not too big on makeup either, this product really lets my skin breathe without making me want to do more. Once I started using this, I never went back. It’s a bit expensive; but, when you see the magic it works on your skin, it’s an investment well-made!”

Wake up to gorgeous skin, buy this oil here for Rs 3,950.

– Dessidre Fleming, Lifestyle Editor

9. Toni & Guy Cleanse Shampoo For Damaged Hair

“If there’s a perfect shampoo for my hair, it’s THIS. I have a super oily scalp and no matter what shampoo I use, my hair gets sticky by the end of the day. During one of my visits to my hairdresser, he suggested I use Toni & Guy Cleanse Shampoo and ever since, I haven’t switched my shampoo. This is one hair product I swear by and I am never going to stop buying it. It not only revitalizes your damaged hair but also adds shine to it.”

So if you have oily hair, I’d suggest you try this shampoo. You can buy it here for Rs 680.
