Monday, July 2, 2012. Sneak-Peek: Chantecaille L’Elephant Palette Fall 2012. Maria @ Vintage Gulab. Chantecaille, how much do I love you? Back to Chantecaille again! I just got news about their Fall 2012 collection and this collection's standout? A palette with ELEPHANTS! Elephants will always have a special place in Pakistani/Indian culture and being one of my favorite animals, I am beyond thrilled. I reviewed the other South Asian-esque themed palette with tigers here. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Red L...

Saturday, April 20, 2013. Best Discoveries of 2012 - Part One. Maria @ Vintage Gulab. Better late than never, right? I have made so many new additions to my stash in the last several months that NOT blogging about them drives me crazy because I'm unable to use them until they are photographed. This also means a very embarrassing percent of my stash is untouched. = =. Note: Anything marked with a (*) will be reviewed soon. Holy grail - sorted by category and broken into 2 parts (soon to follow):. Has beco...

Travel Part 2: Abu Dhabi Duty Free Haul | Vintage Gulab | A beauty blog by Maria Nadeem

Saturday, July 21, 2012. Travel Part 2: Abu Dhabi Duty Free Haul. Maria @ Vintage Gulab. I did a Part 1 post here. Elaborating on the whole move to Saudi Arabia but because we flew via Etihad Airways (United Arab Emirates), we had a 4-hour layover at the Abu Dhabi International Airport before our flight out to Dammam, Saudi Arabia. And that meant duty free shopping! Here is what I picked out. 1 Yves Saint Laurent (YSL) 'Rouge Pur Couture' Glossy Stain. In #13 Rose Tempera. 2 Guerlain Rouge Automatique.

Tuesday, June 26, 2012. Maria @ Vintage Gulab. While packing my makeup the other day (more on that laterrrr), I realized I had still not done a my-favorite-bronzers post yet! Now, before I start I will like to preface this by saying I am NOT a fan of the harsh or obnoxious bronzer style which seems to be uber-popular nowadays. I see it on YouTube all the time where bronzer is used like a heavy contour powder or applied very heavily where it's easily detectable. Not my cuppa' tea, ahem. No, because I have...

Monday, June 11, 2012. Maria @ Vintage Gulab. A few things that are surprising once you start looking at makeup from a per-gram perspective is that not everything drugstore/mid-range is exactly "inexpensive", in fact many high-end brands end up turning out to be a better value than their less-expensive/mid-range counterparts. Another realization: loose pigments and cream shadows, although more amount is probably needed per application, end up being cheaper in the long run. Inglot $12/2.5 grams - $4&#...

Monday, May 21, 2012. Rouge Bunny Rouge 'Orpheline' Comparison. Maria @ Vintage Gulab. I posted my Rouge Bunny Rouge order. Recently and mentioned I'd do a comparison post comparing Orpheline (. To blushes within a similar color category. The blushes I assumed would be close (photographic evidence says otherwise) were NARS Amour. 28 / 0.16 oz), NARS Gilda. 28 / 0.16 oz) and Tarte's Natural Beauty. 25 / 0.20 oz) because of the similar warm-strawberryness to their undertones. No, especially since Amour and...

Monday, April 8, 2013. Inglot O2M Nail Enamel (The "Muslim" Polish? Maria @ Vintage Gulab. I know this appearance after 2 months of being MIA is embarrassingly-lame but long story short: a massive tragedy hit extremely close to home in February so blogging was the last thing on my mind.

Monday, January 14, 2013. Maria @ Vintage Gulab. When moving to Saudi Arabia from Wisconsin, I made sure to keep all my brushes with me at all times so I actually had my brush roll in my purse the whole time. . This brush roll stores all my brushes when I travel. The previous post. Was about my entire brush collection detailing all my face and eye brushes. The brush roll I use is by the Etsy seller ASoftBlackStar. You can check her blog here. I haven't washed it in the 2 years I've had it (never found th...
