Daily Beauty tips

during my time in Australia, i was fortunate to get to meet up with the lovely Tracy, otherwise known as The Love Vitamin . it just so happened, by pure coincidence, that she and I were living about 10 minutes away from each other - which is exceptionally odd, given that we've both been watching each other's YT channels for ages now. it was super surreal to meet her, and to realise how petite a woman she is - such a surprise! we were like little and large! haha. she'll be in Oz for another few months, and i was gutted that i couldn't stay out in australia a bit longer, so we could've hung out more - she's a very lovely and interesting person, and we talked for ages about skin, food, health and life in general. it was awesome. anyway, here's a little intro to her if you've never heard of her before, or you want to see what she's up to...

Hmm Liquid foundations are widely used, but how to actually apply it and get best results out of it? Using your fingers? makeup sponges? Brushes? What to choose from?! Keep on reading, we'll discuss all the application methods! Applying Liquid Foundation with your fingers! Clean fingers to be precise! I think this is the easiest way to apply foundation, and its actually pretty fast too..but does it cover your face nicely?

hello lovely readers! i hope you are having a beautiful day :) i've been very remiss at actually posting on this blog, getting thoroughly disctracted by video making, writing my beauty book and my food blog. so i apologise for that - thanks for sticking with me... and i hope i can bring you some interesting and good quality articles for you to read in the future. today, instead of a beauty tip, i want to share something a little more personal: my battle with homesickness. now, this won't be relevant for all of you, but i reckon every one of you will come across someone with homesickness at some point in your lives, so it's sort of handy to find out how to deal with it, isn't it? anyway, start by watching this video, and then keep reading for a more in depth chat: i did have tremendously horrible homesickness from the ages of 8-16, that manifested itself in very physical ways (sort of a cross between a nervous breakdown and food poisoning - not very nice). there were man...

Dengue Fever a virus-based disease spread by mosquito..and is spreading in Pakistan, mostly in Punjab Province Research tell that only two spoonfuls of raw papaya leaves juice, taken once a day can help dengue patients increase their platelet count and therefore overcome the fever. Here is how you juice the leaves: For each dose of 2 tablespoonfuls once a day, you need 2 papaya leaves.  Clean and pound them, and squeeze it with a filter cloth. Do not boil or cook or rinse with hot water.

Hey there Sweet People, let me introduce to a product i adore from ages! my Kryolan Aqua Color in Black..commonly known as a cake liner in Pakistan What the Say? Aquacolor is a glycerin-based compact make-up, especially color-intensive, with the ingredients of superior-quality skin cream preparations. Aquacolor is universally applicable, primarily as a make-up for painting face and body. Application is effortless, with an only slightly moistened make-up sponge or brush. After drying, it can be gently buffed with a soft towel or with the hand - but is not powdered. Setting spray is recommended if the make-up will be subjected  to extreme conditions. Aquacolor is extensively smudge-proof and can be easily removed with soap and water. Aquacolor is available in an extensive variety of more than 132 shades, which include skin, vivid and metallic shades.  My Experience I basically use this baby instead of an eyeliner, tight-lining my eyes, or as an eyeshadow base! and this has been ...
