6 SKINCARE PRODUCTS I WANT TO TRY OUT THIS YEAR

April 9, 2019 39 Comments

Hiya,

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. Spring is here and as much as I’d like to be happy and cheerful, it usually comes with some consequences for me. I am not saying hay fever and sneezing but mine is like double that where it not only attacks my eyes but from last year, my face has decided to get coin like swellings out of the blue either on the side of my face or dead centre on my forehead or the current one right on the side of my nose. The funny thing is it only comes during Spring, decides to stay all through Summer and then Autumn checks in and my face is clear again. The only thing that has been helping is pills on a daily basis, loads of concealer and the thought of these 6 skincare products I want to try out this year.

Anyway, I didn’t come today to say about my skin issues but it’s nice to say it so that if you meet me anywhere and see something bulging from my face just know it’s my Spring allergies. So today I have a post on skincare products I would love to try, I already wrote about products that didn’t work for me a while back do check them out here. There are so many but I just chose the ones I have been keeping my eyes on for a while.

6 SIMPLE THINGS I STOPPED DOING TO MY NATURAL HAIR

February 19, 2019 22 Comments

Hello Everyone,

I hope you are all having a good day and had a great start of the week. I decided to embark on a water fast and don’t even know what made me do such a thing, I haven’t cheated or fainted yet so let’s hope I make it through. Anyway since I was thinking of doing my hair this week, it made me realise how my routine has changed. If you read my post here on how to have healthy natural hair then you know what it takes. Since then, my hair has gone through a lot from pregnancy to colour damage to lots of unnecessary trims. I did notice 6 simple things I stopped doing to my natural hair and I will be sharing that with you today.

January 4, 2019 73 Comments

Hiya,

It’s been a while since I did a beauty post and with the new year here, It’s time to take care of ourselves and start it right be it health wise or skin-wise. By now you all know that I love skincare and products that come with it, I am a product hoarder and I am still trying to fix that. We all would love to just get up in the morning and not care whether that lousy pimple is all hormonal or just a pesky annoying torch. My skin has gone through ups and downs and if you read my skincare routine, then you will know how much I do try to take care of it. So anything that will give me healthy clear looking skin I am all for trying and researching about it. If you have skin problems, then here are 5 reasons why your skin is not clear and healthy.

LOVING THE ALDI LACURA SKINCARE PRODUCTS AND WHY YOU SHOULD TOO

October 2, 2018 32 Comments

Hello Everyone,

I am so excited for this post today, I hope you’re all doing great and had a lovely weekend. Speaking of the weekend, I went for my usual grocery shopping in aldi and after lots of rummaging through all those baskets and trying to find where the special buys are, I ended up finding some skincare products which to be honest, really looked good. I am sure you have all heard about the Lacura brand in aldi and how some end up selling out, that’s why I am loving the aldi lacura skincare products and why you should too. Also, I think I found a Pixi glow tonic dupe that I am very excited about and it’s way cheaper than the original. Make sure to also check out my top beauty products and tell me what you think.

MY CURRENT SKINCARE OBSESSIONS

March 6, 2018 107 Comments

Hi there,

I hope you all had a great weekend and are excited that the snow has finally stopped falling and keeping us indoors. I am so ready for spring to get here and just to have a bit of warmth. Today I am here to tell you all about my current skincare obsessions, in my skincare routine I told you how I was into Korean skincare and as much as I tried to reduce some of the steps, I have gone back to following all of them and I am loving how my skin feels and looks this time around. My skin is not perfect but we have to start from somewhere right? And since I can be a “product hoarder”, I rather tell you what I have been using lately before adding any additional products which I know is going to happen.

PROTECTIVE HAIRSTYLES FOR NATURAL HAIR

August 28, 2017 5 Comments

Hello Everyone,

I hope that you all had a lovely weekend and are ready to rinse and repeat. Last week was all over the place for me, my son is starting school and I’m happy for him and nervous at the same time too. So since it’s going to be school errands every single day, I really don’t have the energy to be making my hair every single day and that’s where my protective styles come in and rescue my life for a month or two. Natural hair is not a joke and the struggle is real, so giving my hair a rest from all the twist outs and flat twists is necessary. I know there are various kinds of hairstyles out there but these are my go to protective hairstyles for natural hair.

Let’s talk about skincare for a minute, nowadays the beauty industry is on blast and with all the products coming out, it becomes very tempting to want to try them out but then comes the issue of the cost and just makes you wonder how a small jar could cost that much. So today I am writing this post for you skincare lovers to show you affordable skincare products on Amazon.

BEAUTIFUL DIY NAILS AT HOME

May 30, 2017 No Comments

Hello there,

I hope you are all doing great this fabulous day, after a long weekend once again, I am back with another post for you guys. So today I have a diy post for all the ladies out there who need their nails done without the hustle of visiting a salon. Imagine how much money you can save by doing your own nails and it doesn’t even take that long plus it’s not rocket science. I usually do my own nails and I have never got them done professionally like really go to a nail salon and have them done because I saw horror stories on how some nails break and it looked really painful. To avoid that, I choose to do my own and you can too, this is how you can have beautiful diy nails at home.
