FROM THE EDIT ROOM
FESTIVITIES GALORE! We are yet to sober up from the sugar high we received from the Dusshera desserts and Diwali is already here. To be honest, we are not complaining. Here is yet another chance to take a vacation for the long weekend and yet another chance to stuff ourselves with more desserts and festive food. Winter is the perfect time to travel. The forest will be abloom, thanks to the rains and the sun just blissfully warm enough to drive away the shivers. Google for offbeat winter destinations and pack your bags to the beach or the trek you always wanted to go to.
ON COVER
We don’t mean to end this on a negative note, but we are still shaken by how severe the air quality in Delhi turned post Diwali 2017. People were asked not to venture out because the city was enveloped in smog. Let us not repeat the mistake this year for our sakes and for the sake of our planet.
It is high time for us to take responsibility for the same. Forego bursting firecrackers and light up your houses with lamps and mud diyas instead. Bring your community together and organize a story session, or better still, a wealth-from-waste craft workshop. You could learn how to make Diwali decorations and pretty paper lamps to adorn your home. We are sure the adults would love to revisit their childhood and the activity will help parents bond better with their children. If you own a pet and your neighbors intend on bursting crackers, send your fur ball on a vacation to place that is free of all the noise and smoke. Animals suffer the most during Diwali. Let us not forget, air and noise pollution happens throughout the year, so do your part and carpool instead of driving to work. Wish you a very happy Diwali’18.
Until next time….
Meanwhile, do engage with us on our social media platforms at facebook.com/whatsbrandnew; twitter.com/whatsbrandnew; instagram.com/whatsbrandnew; www.whatsbrandnew.com Singer and actress Selena Gomez has been one of Puma’s biggest celebrity ambassadors since taking on the role late last year. Now the star has teamed with the brand for the latest Autumn Winter 2018 collection. For Gomez, the footwear is meant to inspire her fans to feel confident.

A Wrinkle Free Solution New and improved powerful strength line reducing concentrate by
Kiehl
42
The Story Kiehl’s introduces a new and improved Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing formula, increasing the concentration of Vitamin C to 12.5% and adding Hyaluronic Acid. The original formula has long been a sought-after customer favorite, selling at a rate of over one per minute around the world with over 5 million bottles sold to date. Due to the difficulty of stabilizing Vitamin C, improving the formula was no small feat. But with careful formulation trials and their expertise in working with Vitamin C, Kiehl’s chemists developed a new formula with an even more powerful, clinically-demonstrated performance. Committed to creating award-winning and beneficial products for its customers, Kiehl’s has taken diligent measures to make the anti-aging serum even more powerful than ever before. The final formulation was determined after 89 distinct formula variations were trialed over 10 months of dedicated work.
Key Ingredients Pure Vitamin C L-Ascorbic Acid, also known as Pure Vitamin C, is a highly efficacious antioxidant known for its ability to improve the appearance of aging skin. In addition to antioxidant protection, Pure Vitamin C is known to help boost radiance, improve texture and visibly reduce the appearance of
lines, wrinkles and other signs of aging. Vitamin Cg Vitamin Cg, or Ascorbyl Glucoside, is a Vitamin C derivative. With antioxidant benefits, this form of Vitamin C is known to help boost radiance and smooth skin texture. Fragmented Hyaluronic Acid Hyaluronic Acid acts like a sponge to draw moisture into skin’s surface layers and then expands as it absorbs. Hyaluronic Acid is known to help smooth and plump skin and is commonly used in products formulated to help reduce the appearance of facial lines and refine texture.
What to expect? Now, with the heightened potency and added ingredient of Hyaluronic Acid, the Powerful Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate packs a new punch and gives skin and instant boost in the appearance of radiance and smoothness. Kiehl’s chemists carefully balanced the formula to allow it to absorb quickly without feeling greasy or oily. This new formula also features a pleasant, citrus scent.
