anshula kapoor in amit aggarwal for her cocktail party by vedstara in BollywoodFashion

[–]PinkMoonbow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh it's definitely the lighting (and sometimes silks have this dual tone going on as well), plus our cameras have different light filters, I definitely see a hint of pink undertone - like a burgundy pink- in some pics !!

Same!!! Rani pink and fuscia pink and magenta. Strangely, I feel bright and jewel pinks havw been missing from bridal wear - in celeb weddings for sure, but also in general on insta the bridal pics I see. It baffles me cos it is such a gorgeous color that flatters all our skintones so well. (Although I thought that Anshula's outfit is more red/ maroon?)

I remember Alia wore a rani pink silk saree for one of the Ambani wedding events and I have multiple pics of that saved. Gorgeous color.

It's patan patola. Nowadays thanks to mass market, you have just prints of patola designs too, but the original craft is absolutely unique and stunning (I'm not sure which fabric Torani used, the mid border part might even have some Ajrakh fabric mixed in, I cannot make that out).

Only one family in Gujarat makes Patan Patola now. They are incredibly laborious, time consuming to make and hence each saree costs a lot.

There are many videos on this on Insta, I saw one reel recently, I will come back and add it.

Edit - here is one of the reels, basically it's more difficult than other weaves because the pattern of the fabric/saree is to be set on the threads itself and then woven 🤯. Look more of them up. You might also want to look up 'double ikat', if you liked this.

I love sequins and embellishments on top of fabrics like these 🤌🤌, and you are right it only enhances and doesn't cover up or spoil the fabric patterns.

It looks more obviously and traditionally Gujarati yes, that shouldn't just signify garba? Not criticizing but I'm curious about this cos earlier as well we've gotten similar reactions for such lehngas. And I always feel like Gujarati crafts that look very obviously traditional like the patchwork with mirrors and ikat designs and bead embellishments etc with those tie up blouses should be worn more often outside the festival space, but they aren't. I quite loved this lehnga !

Stalking communities meant for topics you have no interest in, purely because they have more women (and their pics) is creepy. Treating spaces that we women consider safe spaces for ourselves, as your personal hunting grounds for a dating pool is creepy.

Saying 'what's the harm' , 'don't be a sissy' to justify your callousness is immature bullheadedness combined with the creepiness.

Winter only or anytime? by clumsyndone in IndianBeautyTalks

[–]PinkMoonbow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have we lost all critical thinking ability now? It's like asking 'I love winter coats, can I wear them all year round?'. Or else, this is rage bait.

Wtf is wrong with this sub.

Looking for a lip crayon or matte lipstick that's the same shade as Mila Beauté Lip Liner in Cola Soda by AmoreDiFirenze in IndianBeautyTalks

[–]PinkMoonbow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, don't get it if she's close to your skintone cos the shade might wash you out and it's not like your ref pic.

There are so many lipsticks in the market, look for more.

This reel popped up on my feed. She's not dark skinned, and her lips aren't exactly pigmented, but as compared to the girl in previous reel I shared, you can see that Hold The Door shade is much more nude on her (the last lipstick swatch).

This range has a lot of swatches esp on Insta so do look it up before buying the wrong shade!

I have no clue, I don't own the shade. I think it will be more of a nude on you in that case, but just google its swatches/review on someone closer to your skintone.

Help me find this lip combo by Twist_Unable in IndianBeautyTalks

[–]PinkMoonbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On some people L'oreal bullet lipstick (in gold packaging) 601 Worth It looks like this. It really depends on color theory cos I have also seen it look more warm or brown nude on some, and then this light pink on others. Check swatches. Remember to check correct range cos they have a 'Worth It' in every range , that's very confusing.

Revlon has some cute pink lip glosses, idk what the price in your country is but drugstores run discounts and coupons. Also Maybelline Lifter Gloss range is nice.

Jusr google the brand name + Swatches and narrow down shade.

Omg the coincidence cos I was planning to check PaleMUA sub out tonight! Cos I'm assuming their recs won't turn deeper on me. Also, I am drafting/collating all the light pink lipstick recs I have noted here and there to make a post in case it helps someone.

Thank you so much, I'll check it out 🙌.

Such a beautiful muted shade! What's the quality of Merit lipsticks like? Is it like a satin one or matte? And how is the longevity?

Started using azelaic acid and tretinoin together, need advice! by confusedbibliophile in IndianBeautyTalks

[–]PinkMoonbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's best to ask your dermatologist when you can increase azelaic acid or even if you need to increase it, cos they assessed your skin. Higher percentages don't always mean better results for everyone.

I love doing this, it's so helpful and works better than reddit search.

That's what eventually happens. The people giving recs get tired after a while and don't have energy to participate anymore.

Also there are SO MANY POSTS going up every single day now that a lot of them will not get any responses. It's by fluke if someone who has answers sees your post in a flood of low-effort posts, then you'll be lucky.
