My #SpaTastic Experience At VLCC DAY SPA

#SpaTastic Experience 

                             
After a week of being in bad health and feeling exhausted all the time, when i received an Invitation from VLCC Day Spa to experience their services as a part of their blogger campaign, it was an Instant mood lifter and happily accepted it, after all VLCC is a trusted brand and I have been using their salon and grooming services for quite sometime now.

Priya Shopping Complex, Vasant Vihar

 Well, there are numerous Spa centers in Delhi to give you a rejuvenating experience. For me hygiene and the quality of products used during the session are very important. VLCC Day Spa is a Top notch relaxing spa center to pamper yourself to the fullest.  They use high quality products from their own parent venture VLCC during the services. The best part about VLCC Day Spa is their luxurious environment and their staff. Staff is not just skilled and profession but also very hospitable and always smiling.

Top Quality Products from VLCC

I visited them in the middle of the day at around 12:30 pm and as soon as I was there, they welcomed me with a great smile and in no time they even asked me to try the services like manicure and pedicure along with a great Foot Reflexology session. While the professionals were doing their job of pampering me, they kept on asking me if I needed something. They even served me with nice and fresh lemonade to sooth and calm my insights.

Pampered Manicure- Pedicure

The Luxe experience of mani-pedi by them cannot be stated in words. You will have to experience it. The Jacuzzi Pedicure relaxing couching was a Plus. Creams and scrubs used during the sesion were so aromatic and relaxing. I almost slept during the foot reflexology. Yes, they were that good :D . Towards the end of the mani-pedi session, they topped my toe and hand nails with amazing gel nail paint by O.P.I. See luxury, again.

My hands and feet felt soft and silky as if I was some princess who never has to do any hard work.

The next therapy that I was offered was super relaxing head massage. The Masseur suggested me to go for an aromatic oil massage, which will not help me rejuvenate my sense but will also strengthen my roots deeply and will prevent hair breakage and hair fall. Whole head massage session took somewhere between 25-30 mins and I can happily say that it was totally worth it. My head, shoulders and arms felt as if they have gotten a new life. I felt extremely charged up, considering the health is taking toll on me.

Perfect Shampoo and Hair Care Corner

My Favorite Place - Hair Stylist Corner 

After that we headed to shampoo and blow dry session. There –there I must say the team of hair stylists that they have is just awesome. Soon after the shampoo, while I waiting for water to drain from hair a little before blow dry, I observed that other stylists who were working on the locks of rest of the customers were doing some fabulous job in no time. I felt so safe at that moment and during the blow dry session, the stylist gave my hair a complete new straightened look. I felt super pleased because they didn't even take ages in doing so.

After Perfect Blow dry 

Relaxed and Groomed 

Recommendation-  I would highly recommend this place to relax and rejuvenate. It’s a unisex spa and grooming center with supreme quality treatments which are delivered by the team of highly skilled professionals. The staff is welcoming and the space is quiet which great aroma. The interiors of the spa are not too dark and are very pleasing. The price of these therapies are not exponentially high and ever once in a while you can completely indulge and pamper yourself.

I’m planning my next visit to them shortly along with my mother. They are placed in various locations in Delhi but the one I visited is in Priya Shopping complex, Vasant Vihar.

Connect with on social media
Facebook , twitter and get ready for some #Spatastic experience as they are totally worth it. Give them a shot and you will not regret it.

Keep Indulging yourself and stay blessed !!

A fun day with Indiblogger, Fellow Bloggers and Dove

Hey All!!!

I know I’ve been missing for months altogether from my lovely blog friends and frankly I don’t wish to give the excuses for that. There were some unavoidable circumstances and when those circumstances weren’t there then there was my Laziness!!! (Honestly)

lady bloggers - take a bow !!!

Anoop - one amazing guy !!!

Well well Well- Few days ago I received this mail from Indiblogger werein they invited all female bloggers for the bloggers meet in Delhi. The theme of the meet was Dove hair aware. The best thing about that email was – it was mentioned there that meet was on Sunday (the fun day u see!!) and they were offering us free food (just imagine – who says no to free and amazing food ;) and bestest part – the registration was free (cool – super cool)

Oh yeah, so I received a call from Indiblogger asking me if I can assure my presence and I was like of course why not- I’ll be there and too on time (The time was morning 10:00am – Sunday morning waking up early – feels disturbing yet its amazing )

As soon as I got over with that call I realized how long it has been that I haven’t written anything and I quickly made a head note – “Buckle up lady and start writing again” but I gave myself another excuse by saying “go for this meet – check this one out as Its going to be your first bloggers meet and write about it.”

So, here I’m writing how the meet went and what all I did. - Reached and got myself registered by just simply giving my email –id and whooppeee they welcomed me.

Then we all the pretty bloggers settled down and had bit of intro-convo + 60 seconds of fame, wherein everyblogger was asked to introduce themselves and their blogs. BTW I forgot to tell you something – I hotfooted from home so that I don’t end up missing anything at the meet and in that rush I completely forgot my cameraL. So the pictures displayed in this post are not my property.

After the ice breaking session with other fellow bloggers, Indiblogger fun guy Anoop took over (he was so amusing!!! and a charm on mike) – he made us laugh asked funny questions and even gave us vouchers and hampers …. (I know you feeling little J, isnt it ;) ).

Thereafter,  Saumya, Brand manager- Dove India took over the stage. She introduced

us the brand and its USP – 1/4^th moisturizing milk in all their products. She even asked us to write our problems – life problems on the sticky notes they gave us and paste it on the soft board on the stage.

Shivani- stand up comedian

Soon after that came Shivani- stand up comedian, she made all of us laugh. Honestly, she was good but certainly not the best. The best part of the meet was the facebook app which we did and soon after that we got a nice hamper from dove people and that too according to hair needs- a shampoo and a conditioner in beautiful white pouch (totally loved it) in between we were also served with nice tea/coffee and cookies (yum yum).

Thenceforth came Dr. Rohini, Hair and Scalp expert – Dove India. She explained us about hair and the problems our hair face in routine. It was an interactive session, we asked her about our hair problems – reasons behind them and how to solve them – I will surely talk about it in detail in my upcomiong posts, so keep following.

All in all the meet was amazing I had great time wid all the ladies – so pretty, so thoughtful and ofcourse so awesome- U ROCK!!!.

Hands down to all female bloggers -  we are doing a great job

 The Fotoshoot !!!

Once again, thank you Indiblogger and Dove for inviting me to such an amazing meet.

That Girl in Yellow Boots: Spotted in all Pink

 From Neck to Toe she goes all Pink

Kalki goes all pink at Swarovski ‘Swing, Sing and Shine' Spring/Summer 2012 collection in Mumbai

Press note

Swarovski’s “Swing, Sing and Shine” collection is a tribute to vintage styling and an ode

to the lights, camera and action of the entertainment world – a topic that has been

intrinsically linked to the company for many decades.

Swarovski’s Creative Director, Nathalie Colin, uses this jewelry and accessory collection to tell the story of a multifaceted young woman as she evolves from a student to that of a starlet becoming accustomed to fame and the limelight.

And she moves like Jagger - Mesmerizing

Bollywood actress Kalki Koechlin as the show's cute-as-a-button showstopper (in a pink flapper-girl dress) goes all bubbly and zing-zaggy on the launch party. The theme of the party was Pink  with the touch of vintage beauty added more glamor and drama to the great Launch.

Kalki Koechlin is a striking personality with her far-out features and girlish looks, her day to day look is Simple yet Sweet ... So here we see a transition from a girl next door to an 'IT Girl'. I like !!!
