The Nykaa Headquarters is abuzz with prep for the Hottest Sale Of The Year. That’s right, The Hot Pink Sale is right around the corner, and we are here to set the record straight—it is going to be bigger, better and hotter than ever! We are bringing to you the best of both worlds with a specially curated selection of products and slashed price points that will leave you stumped. Make sure to check out the app so that you don’t miss out on any of the hot deals. Meanwhile, I snooped around the office the other day (because I’m a curious editor, what can I say?) to find out what our very own Nykaa Army will be adding to their Pink Box. Keep reading if you’re curious too.

“Actually there are a bunch of things that I have added to my Pink Box, the Caudalie Beauty Elixir because it is the perfect product that helps me feel refreshed mid-day and I also carry it everywhere I travel because it smells amazing and makes me feel good. I use the Dermalogica Microfoliant as it helps me get glowing skin, it has tiny little beads that get activated on coming in contact with water to adeptly remove the dead skin cells, which is perfect for my sensitive skin. Also, the Huda Beauty Mercury Retrograde Palette — I really love experimenting with all the super pigmented shades and feel that they transition really well from day to night. I can’t wait to bag the PAT McGRATH Balm Highlighter duo that gives me the dewy, natural ‘Hailey Bieber glow’ and most definitely the Two Faced Better Than Sex Masacra that I swear by and have been using for many years. There are some really exciting offers on brands that I have been meaning to try: the Kora Beauty Oil and the Kiehl’s Avocado Eye Cream too.”

“What I am adding to my Pink Box is definitely the Huda Beauty Mercury Retrograde Eyeshadow Palette because I have been eyeing it for a really long time. The Carolina Herrera Bad Boy for my boyfriend, and I think my mum has been really waiting to bag the Esteé Lauder Advanced Night Repair. I would love to restock on my Clinique Moisture Surge and The Mac Prep + Primer Fix.”

“Since I am a conscious consumer, I only use vegan and cruelty-free products. I will be adding the SADHEV Aloe Gel to my Pink Box. I will also be getting myself the Daughter’s Earth 100% Vegan Lip and Cheek Tint. I am also excited to bag the lip tint and highlighter from this beauty brand called Ilana. For my curly hair I am looking to add a diffuser to this list! I am really excited about the luxe combos that are going to be on sale. I have my eyes on the Two Faced Better Than Sex Mascara, as it’s really effective.”

“I love a good sale and the first thing I will be getting my hands on is the Palmer Cocoa Butter Oil infused with vitamin E. I literally can’t live without it because it gives me this beautiful, healthy glow. I turn to this tub right after my shower and it just keeps my entire body super hydrated. The other product that I will be buying from the hottest sale of the year is the Moroccan Oil great for my ‘mallu hair’ (the frizz is real guys). I will also be bagging a couple of lipsticks, the first one being the SmashBox Gula-Bae and the other being the ICONIC Matte Lipstick in the shade Mona Lisa by Nykaa Cosmetics. People always want to know what shade it is, so will definitely stock up to keep the compliments coming (laughs). Oh, I will also get myself the Better Than Sex Mascara.”
Shikha Kohli, 29
“I usually like to stock up on everyday essentials, during the sale, as well as some beauty items that I have been wanting to try. I make the most of the offers and snag deals during the sale. This sale I will be getting the Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution in the shade pillow talk, it is the perfect nude lipstick for everyday use, and it is worth the investment, as I get good use out of it. The other everyday essential lipstick I will be picking up is the Nykaa so creme! Creamy Matte Lipstick in the shade “Game On”. Another essential I use on a daily basis is Kajal and I will be getting the M.A.C extreme dimension Kajal it is super smudge-proof making it perfect for the monsoon season. I have been wanting to add scalp exfoliation to my regime, to help thoroughly clean my scalp and help my beauty resolution of taking extra care of my hair health this year. So I can’t wait to bag the Mcaffine anti-dandruff coffee scrub as well. Another hair practice I have been diligent about is always using heat protectant before I style my hair, and will be restocking my heat protectant, I like to use the Tresemme Keratin Smooth Heat protectant. Klairs freshly juiced vitamin drops is my go-to day time serum, and I will be stocking at least 3 of them, as I go through the bottle very fast! I am also excited to get my hands on the Ordinary Natural Moisturising as well as the daily squalene cleanser for my super dry skin.”
