Be Talk: Shopping experience from 48craft.com

I really like the way online stores are catering to all sorts of needs of people nowadays. So far, the sites hoarding makeup and skincare products were the most popular ones to us ladies. But of late I came across the website www.48craft.com and was pleasantly surprised with its plethora of interesting  and beautiful articles-which comprise entirely of Indian traditional arts and crafts. I am really amazed to see the wide variety of products in a number of categories and at very reasonable pricing in this website and so sharing it with you. 

Here is a sneak peak at the website: www.48craft.com and some of the nice products listed therein. 

 

Combo Deals

 Toys

 Bags

Here is what I bought from this website:

A set of 5 pillow covers

A cane handbag

Well these were actually my mom's recommendations-and she is really happy with the products that we received. Here's discussing some of the features of this online shopping website.

1) The products are all based on Indian handicrafts of various states. The current collection has some very attractive products

2)There are a wide number of categories to choose from. Do check out the bags section-its just awesome!!! You would surely be tempted to pick one!

3) The description provided is very helpful to choose the products. I received the  product (bag)  in exactly the given dimensions and as per the descriptions given in the website.

4)  Here are some current discount offers from this website which you would get once you sign up.

5) The products I received are of great quality. I think they are totally worth the price.

6) The courier (Fed Ex) service is very prompt and  reached our place in two days and they also called before the delivery. The products were securely delivered in a card board box.

Over all I am very happy after shopping from this website-I got  nice products at reasonable prices and with most prompt delivery service. I would wish 48craft to add more traditional Indian products-like sarees, madhubani and rajasthani paintings, dokra artifacts and loadsa other stuff! I think this is also  a great endeavor to promote Indian art and should reach out to international buyers as well!!!

I received a voucher from this website for shopping-however-my review is unbiased and unaffected by that

Be Talk: Oriflame Haul

The aunty at the salon where I visit bi-weekly or AAWN (as and when needed :D) has recently discovered her fascination for Oriflame products. No-its true!!! She off course is a representative -but then the first thing she bought was some beauty capsules worth 1990 INR for herself!!! Anyway-no harms-but then one day-as I knew would surely come-she popped out three most holy grail products (according to her) that I must use-for causes as assorted the products were! So after about a year- I made an Oriflame Haul-with the following stuff-

1) Oriflame Eye Makeup Remover:1 

Price: INR 225

2) Deeply nourishing hot oil for very dry hair (Aunty said she will use them in my next hair spa session !+!) : 2 tubes ; Price INR 49/tube

3) Oriflame Daily Hand Cream: 1; Price INR 243

 

I have so far used only the makeup remover-will post reviews soon!
