GLAMOUR IN THE CITY HIGHLIGHTS ABOUT INTERNATIONAL MAKE UP WORKSHOP BY ILAHA HAJIYEVA
I
Sneha nternational glam council by Shirin Singh presented the ultimate makeup master class by Ilaha Hajiyeva on 23rd august, 2018. Sunpreet Singh and Shirin Singh were the Organizers of this event. Shirin is a professional makeup artist who won the hearts after winning the prestigious award Elite Mrs.India 2017 and Niharika Kumawat who is also associated with the Organizers is a renowned internationally certified makeup artist. Glam Mint was the main Media sponsor of this event and this event was not only meant for professionals but also for budding makeup artists. The event was a huge hit which catered to more than 150 makeup artists hailing from different parts of the world. Many came from Iran, Mumbai, Goa, Karnataka, Chennai, Jaipur, Delhi and NCR. Ilaha Hajiyeva came to India for the very first time and demonstrated two makeup looks. One was high-end reception and second was Indian bridal. The activity started when Ilaha decided to bring an enticing persona on the model through her makeup skills. A significant thing to notice was that she took pink colour to define smoky. The USP of the show was that Ilaha Hajieyeva launched her own line of products.
Special radiant shimmer glitter eye shadows and contour sticks. A unique blend of international makeup products were used like Fenty Beauty, Nars, Marc Jacobs, Huda Beauty, MAC, Becca, Inglot, Anastasia Beverly Hills, Juvias, Melt, Samer Khouzami, Laura Mercier and Ilaha Hajiyeva. Glam Mint not only covered this whole event but also took interviews of guests and participants and uncovered many unsaid stories of their journey from being a mere artist to a popular face of makeup industry. Ilaha was interviewed wherein she reciprocated with warmth and happiness to people who were present there. It was interesting for us to know that she is keen towards Indian fashion styles and how a
‘bindi’ specifically fascinates her. Many other artists were interviewed too. Vidya Tikari, a famous artist, advised the crowd “One Should Experiment with Bright, Vibrant Colors.”. Priyanka Makhijani, another Celebrity Makeup Artist and an excellent professor who has her own Makeup Academy expressed her happiness that such an event took place in India giving people an insight regarding the same. The crowd went berserk buying the products from stalls from various brands like Let’s Doll Up by Sammy, Ferrarucci India, Angels Collection, Makeup By Analia Brushes, Ilaha Hajiyeva, London Pride, Kolar Cosmetics, Indulgeo Essentials,
Blue Heaven Cosmetics, Dermacol, Wynk Me, Trendy Bella, Perenne Cosmetics, Lure Nails, New Age Salon, Firangi Tattoo Studio. The event’s charm was marked by the presence of renowned people like Chandani Girdhar, Gomit Chopra, Atul Chauhan, Vidya Tikari, Meera Sakrani, Anubha Dawar, Ashima K Chhinna, Preeti Thukral, Fazila Mansuri, Pooja Khurana, Khushi Gaba, Banita Ahuja, Ojas Rajani, and Guru Makeup Artist. It was very new and bewitching for everyone to have a makeup master class conducted at such a great level. This involved the contribution by an international makeup artist which marks as an achievement for the International Glam council. Hence to deduce, we look forward to more such events which will not only give budding makeup artists an outlook around fashion and beauty but also help in gathering information which can be looked from different lenses, enhancing and grooming our ideas behind the same. g

The challenge is always to meet the expectation of our consistent customers in terms of no compromise in highly set standards —SUSHIL SACHDEVA
...The company is 50 years old and Shahnawab was launched in 2014 at a fashion show, being his first grand show. Sushil – “When I undertook the legacy, I laid down the framework with the improvised format, as per the market requirements. “Crafting Prince hood” is
what I do while dressing up my every client. I launched Shahnawab as a brand with the grandeur by organizing a fashion show, showcasing all new collections inviting thousands of our existing customers”. The idea behind keeping a name as Shahnawab is to awaken the hidden prince and the memories of which shall be carried for lifelong. While in conversation with him, I found out that there exist some more enticing terminologies used by him. Such as ILAAHI, MAHARAJA, MAYOR SAAB, LAAD SAAB, SHEHJADA so on and so forth, having meaning behind the creation itself. When you step inside the store, no doubt you cannot come out without buying something. He himself has been from a tech background, that has given him an upper hand in presenting things in more appropriate ways for his customers. His technical experience helps him creating a complete look from top to bottom for everyone. His passion was such that he pursued designing and took it forward. He is the man behind crafting ideas and putting them forward to face challenges. For him, a calm and composed state of mind is imperative and then as he says “let things come, will face it at that moment”. He further adds, “The challenge is always to meet the expectation of our consistent customers in terms of no compromise in highly set standards”. Being in a family business where his father’s role was very important to the customers, Sushil took it as a challenge and made it a point that every customer should leave with a smile and satisfaction. Hard work…Smart work…
Blouse in the peacock cut Dana Embroidery with the tinchoi Silk skirt with the net Neemzari border Dupatta. Perfect for the mehendi rich occasion of the bride. It is teamed up with Gold jhumkaas and maang tikka for the royal look.
Network - The chain followed in the industry is that my grandfather did hard work, my father followed with the smart work and now I am accomplishing with the network. Quality with satisfaction is one thing which was prevalent 15 years back and even today. The difference is in those times word of mouth was enough, but today it needs to be physically proven in advance. One thing which has stayed with him is his persistency and consistency towards work. He experiments a lot with new things to make it creative. He does not stick with one thing and always allows uniqueness to be a part of fashion. He loves to update the wardrobe for people and create something new every time. One important aspect of clothing which he gives is that he likes visualising, which is essential for anyone while dressing. He himself is very health conscious and advices that one should be fit when it comes
to body in order to feel the attire. Feel the fabric and stay fit!! His staff involvement is dear to him and he gives credit of his success to his team, which is again an old association. Since it is always required for every outfit to be customised, the store refrains from getting it done online. He firmly believes in engaging selflessly to keep track of even minutest things. The work starts from fabric picking, thread weaving, dying, till the delivery of the material in a spic and span manner to the end customer. This process is monitored by Sushil himself. Being peculiar at his nature and to build bonds over business, “Shahnawab” is extremely committed to excellence in every aspect. When asked about the collection for women, he has something called Saheba, where they do female formals. Sushil plans to have state of the art factory in future. His goals are enormous and the work process behind is humongous. He also would like to introduce franchise of the same and create a platform which serves at the next level. He is blessed with the family from where he has inherited the fashion sense and his deep interest of living it. Wishing him all the best for his future endeavours.! g

WHAT’S UP WITH
THE TRIGGERING BEVERAGE Shubhangi Shukla What’s UP With “MTVUp”: Merry are the moments when we hear women conquering the streets. We are still waiting for that time when women can freely move on roads at their will and stop being victims of patriarchy system. Women are leaving no stone unturned to explore and abide by their choices to be independent. Something similar could be seen on streets of Delhi recently on 18th august 2018. Women set the roads on fire! The event was organised by none other than MTV UP. The sole reason was not only to promote the brand, but also to feel the zeal and enthusiasm behind every sip of the drink. The organisers Nitish Khattar and Vedant Johar talked about the brand MTV UP and the experience they want to exhibit through these activities. According to them, the energy drink pumps up the levels of all our neurotransmitters, this thereby charges and gives extra boost to girls riding throughout the day having more fun. The women bikers rally started at 11:00 AM covering the streets of New Delhi and
introducing the city about the energies, we carry within ourselves. From Saket to India Gate, focussing majorly the areas of south Delhi, the women bikers were all decked up to ride their passions. This energy drink gave bikers a smooth restart when they needed a halt to rejuvenate themselves. The drink helped them to stay focussed for a longer period. The idea behind the bike rally was to
introduce MTV UP to the population and to make them familiar with the new energy product. We all consume caffeinated products, energy drinks but this one is something new, processed in a way that people would feel the change when consumed. One will not feel the need to stop just because of lack of energy. Now we have something which is delectable and invigorating. MTV UP, RAISE YOURSELF ! g

Staff Desk t is a very proud moment indeed. One doesn’t have to be in a box certainly as the law is loud and clear. It states that homosexuality is not a crime. The battle that has been going on since ages has some clarity at least. The judgement that came on Thursday (8/9/18), marked an important date in Indian history by decriminalising article 377. “Section 377” deals with “unnatural offences” and holds “whoever voluntarily has carnal intercourse against the order of nature with any man, woman or animal shall be punished with imprisonment for life, or with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to ten years, and shall also be liable to fine.” (The Indian Express). It was believed that sexual activities between the same sexes is unnatural and is crime. The battle was a tough one, recognising the needs and emotions behind people and love. One cannot be deemed under a psychological diagnosis just because s/he expresses “love” for the same sex. It is therefore high time that Indian law should actually remove the blind fold. Whatever it may be “love is love”. The verdict has unfolded a number of questions for a number of people. The traditional mind-set and stereotypical understanding that people hold has been tormenting a large section of the society, leaving them to be marginalised. It is imperative to understand that putting in a box is

not a way of approaching towards a goal. The comprehension of same requires perspective and critical analysis. We should keep in mind others as well and not leave them behind or discriminate on any grounds as such. The law states that one has the right to live and express with dignity. There is nothing to do with what is known as unnatural or offensive to people. Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra’s opinion lays emphasis on transformative constitutionalism that is, treating the Constitution as a dynamic document that progressively realises various rights. In particular, he invokes the doctrine of nonretrogression, which means that once a right is recognised, it cannot be reversed. (The Hindu) Some new things are on their way and it is time to introspect as well as deliberate about what we are presented with. The problem occurs when individuals stop thinking critically and blindly follow everything. People, buckle up and question. Express what you feel. Love and let love freely. g REFERENCES: THE INDIAN EXPRESS, THE HINDU, THE TIMES OF INDIA

exual fantasies give a boost to our mind set. What? Why? How? Obviously, this is a statement which can be questioned. But studies have shown that “one in four Americans has a secret sex scenario that they want to act out, but have yet to share with the partner. So what’s the appeal of a fantasy? Sexual health coach Dr Jayne Guyn, Ph.D., RD, and author of “Too Busy to Get Busy,” says, “Our erotic urges enjoy playing to a script. It’s not necessary to have one to run eroticism, but when a turn-on meets a hot story — particularly a forbidden story — it has a place to land.” So let us see what are some of the sexual fantasises which can turn us on and we would like to add some spice in our sexual lives.
New Delhi
LET THE EROTIC URGES TURN ON
Hand cuffs: Did you just recall fifty shades of grey in your mind? Nevertheless, handcuffs have been exciting since ages and actually give the concept of controlling the partner. However, many of us fantasize either being bandaged or disciplined. Dr. Lehmiller says, “Bondage and discipline (the second meaning for “D”) involves one person surrendering control to another. Only bondage involves physical restraints — handcuffs, rope, etc. — while discipline involves psychological restraints.”
Three some: Many sexual partners who are open about their relationship would prefer engaging in a threesome, while others would feel that it is like third wheeling. Anyway, it is just a fantasy which most of us do have and we all have a choice in that. “The psychological basis of this fantasy lies in the sexual scarcity that many men (and some women)
experience. The fantasy of threesomes and ‘more-somes’ removes any feeling of shortage and replaces it with multiple hands, mouths and bodies. The anxiety of ‘not enough’ is banished.”
Being dominating or submissive: Missionary sex position is one traditional set of intercourse which gives rise to patriarchy according to me. With this I do
THE NATURAL MASKS FOR A ‘HEALTHY’ SKIN
W
on’t you prefer natural ways to cure ailments with easily accessible home-made remedies? Look around and you will find natural ingredients like Turmeric, Cinnamon, Milk etc secretly hiding in your kitchen cupboard. If you simply just fancy getting creative in kitchen, you will find the most effective and spa-worthy natural masks to whip.
Lemon and honey face pack: Honey and Lemon Face pack – two extremely common household ingredients – and two absolute must-haves for clear, glowing skin! Lemons are filled with alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), which help in the removal of dead skin cells, while honey is an incredible natural antibacterial agent, full of antioxidants that fight free radical damage to the skin. Apply for 20 minutes to have everlasting refreshing experience.
Sandalwood and rosewater: A must have if you are suffering from oily skin. Sandalwood is nothing but chandan and rosewater is gulaab jal in Hindi. These are easily available too. Apply once a week and you
will see that it detans the skin. The odour will leave you with a beautiful aroma around.
Tomato pulp: Tomatoes are used daily. Oily plus tanned skin? Then go for the pulp of the tomato and add a drop of honey. Leave it for 15 minutes on the skin and wash it after 15 minutes.
Milk and honey: Again a great means of scrubbing the skin pores. Add some amount of honey in a spoon of milk. Leave to for 10 minutes. Mind that you might struggle with some ‘chip chip’. But eventually, a glowing skin is what you are looking for!
The ‘ubtan’: The oldest and experienced way of clearing the dirt from our skin. Take some flour, add turmeric, honey, rosewater or milk. Mix well. This is a perfect blend of home-made face mask and is tried and tested. You will not have any side effects too. Have a wonderful experience by and large. g Reference: TNN, (2017). Best homemade packs for summer. Times Of India
not mean, that being dominant is merely dependent on the one who identifies himself as male or with any other gender. It is open to interpretation and desires are thus followed having a better sexual compatibility.
Sex and sexuality: Let us not get into gender roles. Simplifying it further, sex with same gender is also a fantasy if you do not identify yourself as a heterosexual. “Sexual health coach Guyn explains: “Because women are socialized to repress their sexual desires — even when in a loving relationship — many women fantasize about a partner who ‘knows how to please a woman’ (i.e. another woman) instead of communicating with a male partner about her specific desires in the bedroom.” There are many more fantasies which we all dream of. It is all up to the person and how would they like to have some excitement in their lives. Keeping in mind of the fact that the definition of excitement may vary amongst individuals.

id I just put you in a state of conundrum? Are you curious to know what I am talking about? Are you feeling the adrenaline rush? Oh God! Yes, that is what happened to me after watching the trailer 12 hours ago. It is Ayushmann Khurana and Radhika Apte taking our hearts away. I am talking about the teaser of Andhadhun on YouTube. This is something which made my day after watching irrelevant videos and scrolling unnecessarily on social media. I am sure the movie will be big hit, as the trailer was absolutely enthralling. The lead roles are played by phenomenal actors Radhika and
VIDYA BALAN IN A NEW WEB SERIES
T
Sneha Anjali umhari Sulu actress Vidya Balan, who is known for her unconventional roles right from her debut film Parineeta, has always amazed the audience with her acting skills. She is all set for another powerful performance where she will play the role of an iconic politician, former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi - the first and the only woman to hold this position. Vidya Balan was supposed to play the protagonist in a film, but in a recent interview Vidya said she will play this role for a web series. Indira Gandhi was an iconic politician who held the position of PM for three times. During her tenure in 1971, a historical war took place which resulted in creation of Bangladesh. To portray such a powerful character on a screen is really difficult. In one of the interviews, Vidya Balan spoke about the reasons behind changing the decision of making a web series on Indira Gandhi instead of a film. She maintained that her life journey is a long one and a film will not do justice to her story. Hence, they have decided to put together a team that will work towards creating this show. This is for the first time Vidya Balan is working on a digital platform. Seasons, episodes even the other characters are still not decided and the script is
in its initial stage. Vidya Balan even mentioned that this web series would be based upon a book and the research team is already working hard to dig out as much content as they can. The actress also confirmed that the rights of the book have already been procured. Vidya Balan is currently busy in shooting for her first Telugu film, which is a biopic movie of a great Telugu superstar turned politician NTR Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao. In this film, Nandamuri Balakrishna is playing the main protagonist while Vidya is playing the character of his wife. Rana Daggubati on other hand is playing the character of CM of Andhra Pradesh Chandrababu Naidu. Everyone is eagerly waiting for the release of the movie. g
Ayushmann. The latter is meant to witness a murder but is portrayed as a blind man. No doubt with his musical skills, we cannot miss his music as he is a pianist himself in the movie. Tabu, a senior artist is seen in some parts of the movie. The movie seems to be a thriller and will instill curiosity among viewers. The film is directed by Sri Ram Raghavan, a genius man who has come up with a great script for his viewers, which will leave them awestruck. Andhadhun is all over the twitter and Instagram receiving praises from directors like Karan Johar. This is what he tweeted post the release of the trailer that the Sri Ram Raghavan directorial is “going to hit it out of the park.” Cannot wait for the movie that will grind us after a long run. Guys get ready for some amazing time during October. The movie is scheduled to release on October 5. g
