[View full gallery](https://mytribe.in/manjeeet/skincare-consultation/gallery) I am tired of seeing viral products that fail to deliver. I test everything from luxury splurges to affordable steals, and I am telling you exactly what is worth your hard-earned money and what is just marketing noise. No filters, no fluff. ## Photos and videos - [Video: Luxury products to never buy, part one. This Gucci compact powder looks beautiful, but it's hard as a rock and has zero coverage. Don't waste your money.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/a61d98df-2c57-4a1f-a0fd-08e07be492c8) - [Video: Sorry Chanel, but this 5000 rupee "matte" lipstick is a fail. It has no coverage, it transfers, and it never dries down. This is not worth the luxury price.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/cb6a7231-1045-49de-8991-7f9fee05e914) - [Video: One magical product for everything. I use this glycolic acid toner for dark armpits, oily scalp, cracked feet, and to improve skin texture. A true multi-tasker that actually works.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/9ad27424-d002-41d8-8e4b-415e8bb8f1a1) - [Video: I'm not a red lip person, but this one is amazing. It's pigmented, non-drying, transfer-proof, and costs less than 500 bucks. A total winner.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/27f77256-df7d-4332-9843-ea0d46008c89) - [Video: You asked for an affordable, long-lasting matte lipstick, and I found one for only 160 rupees. It's proof that you don't always have to spend a lot for good quality.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/43705624-cc7b-490e-a180-16047474e77e) - [Video: If you're feeling dry and need an instant glow, this is the product. It gives such a beautiful, dewy finish that even my daughter can't resist it.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/dea0efd5-dc21-4b1d-9c0f-847cbdfa6a88) - [Video: This is the only cheek tint I've found that gives you a beautiful, natural flush and glow on bare skin. It's hydrating and looks so fresh.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/2bb6b604-5909-4eea-bfb1-7a2e88afb22d) ## About Product Reviews: The Good, The Bad & The Useless Before you add that viral serum or must-have lipstick to your cart, let’s talk. I have spent way too much money on luxury items that underperformed and affordable gems that surprised me. My reviews are not about pleasing brands; they are about saving you from the disappointment of false marketing and helping you build a kit that actually works for your skin type. I do not believe in gatekeeping. Whether it is a 5000-rupee lipstick that transfers or a 160-rupee matte gem that actually stays put, I have put them to the test on my own skin. We all have different textures, pores, and concerns—that is normal. My goal is to help you navigate the noise. I look at ingredient lists, check expiration symbols, and see how products hold up during a long day in Bangalore’s weather. If a high-end product has zero coverage, I will tell you. If an affordable hack helps with skin texture or brightens your underarms, I will share that too. Think of this as your bullshit-free guide to beauty. I do not get paid to lie to you. I will tell you to skip the hype and save your cash for something that truly changes your skincare game. Stop chasing trends and start investing in what works. ## About Manjeet Khehra I am Manjeet. If I am not blending highlighter, I am probably spilling the truth about the products I have tested on my own skin. I live for a good bargain, but I am also here to tell you when the luxury price tag is not worth the hype. Let’s get real about your kit.
