I test everything myself so you don't waste your money. From affordable Indian brands to daily essentials, here are the products I actually use and love.

An honest review of the new Mars Artistry foundation. For just 900 rupees, the coverage is mind blowing and it's not even 0.5% transfer proof without any powder. I'm so impressed with this Indian brand.

An honest review of the viral TIRTIR cushion foundation, in Kannada. The packaging is luxurious and the coverage is crazy good, but I do feel it's a bit expensive. Overall, I'd give it a 9 out of 10.

If you're a bride to be for 2024, this video is a treat for you. I'm creating a soft glam bridal look using all products from Maybelline, which you can find at great offers.

Calling all 2024 brides. I'm creating a fresh, timeless, soft glam bridal look using products I shopped from Health and Glow. They have a wide range of brands and great offers.

Kajal was my only makeup product as a kid. This one from Uro Paris is one of the best. It's super smooth, smudge proof, and waterproof. I'm also using their lashes, which are my favorite.

My favorite mascara from Iba Cosmetics is finally back in stock. This mascara gives amazing volume and length without any clumpiness, and you don't even need a false lash.

Let's do an everyday makeup look without foundation, using the new Renee Everyday range. All their products are infused with Vitamin C and SPF 30, and they are perfect for a quick, daily glow up.

You won't need any other blush if you have this one. It's a color changing pH blush from Renee that reacts to your skin to create a unique pink shade that's perfectly tailored for you.

This one kohl pencil from Renee is enough to elevate your look. It's super pigmented, glides on easily, and comes with a sharpener for precise application. I did a smudge test and a water test, and it didn't move at all.

I don’t just review products; I show you exactly how to make them work for your skin. Most of what I recommend are affordable Indian brands like Mars, Renee, and Maybelline that deliver real results without the heavy price tag. If you have been struggling with shade matches or are wondering which texture suits your skin type, I have likely already tested it. Let’s find what works for you.

I’m Prakruthi. I believe makeup should be fun, not expensive or intimidating. I started Taarini to share the hacks I’ve learned—from finding the right shade of foundation to getting that perfect winged liner. I test every product I recommend so you get real, honest results.
