Born ‘n raised in Sri Lanka; living in New Zealand; a self-taught makeup and skincare enthusiast.
I started learning about makeup application and products a little over three years ago and never looked back. During the journey so far, I found that the resources and information like product recommendations available for my skin tone (bio given below) are very limited, especially in this region. So, here I am, to share my experiences and views with fellow brown-skinned beauty lovers who might have suffered from the same lack of information.
I try to address some concerns relevant to beauty and skin care and recommend products. However, I am not a scientist nor do I have a background in cosmetology. Everything shared here is either based on my personal experience or the research I conducted, and should not be taken for granted.
I am PhD student (hence, good in researching!) and therefore am unemployed. So, unfortunately (or not), the majority products reviewed here will be affordable and inexpensive. I try to splurge on skincare from time to time, though. So you might see reviews about them as well.
I am also open for suggestions for blog posts as well as the general performance of the blog. So do write me via info@sithru.co.nz or use the contact page.
Hope you enjoy the content here!
