Palazzo Pants: Different Ways To Style Them

Hello Everyone,

Palazzo pants for women first became a popular trend in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The style was reminiscent of the wide-legged cuffed trousers worn by some women fond of avant-garde fashions in the 1930s and 1940s.


Palazzo pants went out of fashion in the start of the 21st century but is currently becoming a new fashion trend.Palazzo pants are long women's trousers cut with a loose, extremely wide leg that flares out from the waist.

Palazzo trousers are popular as a summer season style, as they are loose and tend to be flattering in light, flowing fabrics that are breathable in hot weather. 

The best part about these pants are that they can be styled in a number of ways – be it with long ,short kurtas or even with shirts !

So, today here i am with  2 different ways to style Palazzo Pants .Let's get started.

1.A Shirt:

The easiest and most effortless way of styling palazzo is by wearing it with a shirt . 

Throw in a pair of your most comfortable footwear, i prefer flats so i paired  them with my favorite pair of flats  and a bold pearl necklace with Afghani jhumkas for little drama and you’re all set to rock the look! 

2. Kurta:

Bored with the churidaars and slim fitted pants that you’d usually wear with your Kurta and don a pair of wide legged pants. 

Team up your palazzo pants with a  kurta, to go for an Indian look. 

My favorite way to style these pants is to wear with a plain kurta, which preferably has long slits on the sides.
Wear a pair of long  jhumkas to complete the look!

This look is comfortable yet stylish and is perfect to wear for a long day at college and office or even a brunch with your girls.

They are stylish, flouncy, chic and supremely comfortable.

Play around a little and see what fits you the best.Get one of these, if you haven’t already.

Castor oil is one of the most widely used ingredients, owing to the fact that it has plenty of benefits for our skin, hair, and health. The castor oil benefits are not just limited for its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, it is traditionally been used topically for skin and hair benefits too.

Castor oil is a vegetable oil obtained by pressing the seeds of the castor oil plant (Ricinus communis).The common name "castor oil", from which the plant gets its name, probably comes from its use as a replacement for castoreum, a perfume base made from the dried perineal glands of the beaver (castor in Latin).
 

Castor oil is a colorless to very pale yellow liquid with a distinct taste and odor. It is a triglyceride in which approximately 90 percent of fatty acid chains are ricinoleates. Oleate and linoleates are the other significant components.

Dermocalm Lotion Review

Hello Everyone,

Good skin is the start of any great look ! That's why it is important to take proper care of your skin and get it to the best appearance that it can be...

Today's blog is all about ' how to get rid of Pimples '... our skin means so much to us and we spend so much money on buying cosmetics that would help us get clear and smoother skin. All the money that we put into the beauty and maintenance of our skin, however, can go to a complete waste by the appearance of a single pimple.

I have faced a lot of problems due to acne and the acne scars which are not ready to leave your face easily. I am always in search of product that can remove my acne scars and came to know about Dermocalm lotion . 

Dermocalm lotion is a calamine-based lotion from a very famous and leading pharma Brand GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). Thankfully, there are ways to deal with acne too.

What is Acne?

Acne, also known as acne vulgaris, is a long-term skin disease that occurs when hair follicles are clogged with dead skin cells and oil from the skin.It is characterized by blackheads or whiteheads, pimples, oily skin, and possible scarring. It primarily affects areas of the skin with a relatively high number of oil glands, including the face, upper part of the chest, and back.

After trying the product for about 2 months i am sharing my experience and review of the product. 

About  Dermocalm lotion:

Dermocalm lotion contains Calamine and light liquid paraffin that helps in drying out pimples. I am using this product daily as night cream for more than 2 months and feel worth a try.

Composition:

Calamine IP......8.0% 

Light Liquid Paraffin IP....10.0%

In a lotion base

Packaging:

Comes in a good quality Plastic bottle with flip open cover. Very convenient  hygienic packaging.Travel Friendly.   

Now the question arises how can Calamine Lotion helps to dry out pimples?

Calamine lotion is a mildly scented medication, used to treat mild infections and irritations on the skin. It is usually a combination of zinc oxide and ferric oxide, or a zinc carbonate compound. It has soothing properties and can really ward off itching, burning and irritation of the skin. Its chemical composition makes it a mild antiseptic as well, so it is able to inhibit growth of microbes and prevent infection on skin.

 Benefits of Calamine Lotion

  

• Calamine lotion is a great way to deal with both your acne and acne scars. 
•  Its chemical composition makes it very soothing on the skin, so it works wonderfully to soothe sun burnt skin. 
•  Reduces the appearance of blemishes and treat allergies caused due to poison ivy.
•  It moisturizes  skin and also acts as a natural primer or a makeup base. 
• Calamine lotion is the perfect skin care solution. 

 My Experience:

What I like the most in  Dermocalm Lotion: 

 

I apply a thick layer of Dermocalm lotion before going to bed.

• Helps to dry up the pimples quickly.
• Very effective and affordable.
• Make the skin soft  and helps to improve the skin texture 
• Helps to maintain a healthy and clear skin.
• Can be used as a moisturizer.
• Lightens the acne scars (it takes time to lightens the scars so be patient while using the product)

Direction To Use:

• Take Dermocalm lotion onto the palm of your hand.
• Apply on your face, massaging in a slow, circular motion for maximum penetration.
• Leave the calamine lotion on your skin overnight. 
• You need not wash it off in the morning. Simply rinse your face with water and your skin will become really soft. 
• Repeat every night till you get rid of the acne completely.
• Suitable for all skin types.

 What I didn't like about  Dermocalm Lotion:

• As of now their is nothing that i didn't liked about this product.

Price:

Rs.139 for 100ml.

Availability:

Nearby Medical store, online store 1mg.

Rating:

Improves the skin texture and dries the pimples at the same time prevents from getting pimples. I have acne prone and oily skin .This lotion helps to reduce my acne scars a lot.

Even if you don't have pimples you can use this lotion.

Please try this product for 1 - 2 week and then come to any conclusion.
