Fav products for special occasions!



  • Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream - Provides just the right amount of coverage which is not too heavy and not too light. I like to mix it with some moisturizer since the cream is a little bit hard to apply .
  • Rimmel Match Perfection Compact Powder - Since the BB cream is a little bit darker from my skin colour, I like to put on this powder on top. It is creamy and you can layer it on according to how much coverage you want. I like to use it the most under my eyes and on my nose .
  • HB Flora Matte Finish Powders - drugstore brand powders that work way better than any other brand I have tried! The lighter one has an orange pigmentation to it that makes you look fresh instantly! I use the darker one for a slight contour. 
For my daily look, I just put on the lighter powder and Im ready to go! Really this product has been my favourite since forever 😊 


Olay Natural White Cleansing Face Wash



So Ive been using this face wash for a while now and I am really pleased with the product. I use it in the morning and it makes my skin look so much fresher! Mind you I still have to use my my normal face wash for controlling my oily skin but Olay in the morning makes sure that I dont need any make up when I leave the house since my skin feels instantly refreshed! ❤️

Boots Cucumber Range 





The Cleanser + Toner is absolutely amazing you guys! I use it whenever my skin gets oily and this makes it smell and feel amazing! It has a gel like consistency and it moisturizes plus cleanses and tones! The only problem I would imagine would be that it would not work that effectively when removing makeup since it is quite gentle however I have not tried that so i cant say anything! 

The eye gel is also a good product. I just used it once and felt a slight difference. Maybe if I use it regularly I will see the desired effect so I will post a separate review for the eye gel later!

Boots Ingredients Leave In Conditioner




I have just because of the Coconut scent 🙈 I was afraid it would make my hair oily and weigh them down so I just sprayed on my ends and the result has been amazing! My hair looks smoother and feels softer! This is exactly the kind of leave in conditioner that fine and easily oily hair needs since it is not thick or greasy! Very happy with this buy 😍

Johnson's 24 hour moisture soft cream




Guys I found the perfect moisturizer!!! This 24 hour moisture soft cream by @johnsonsmiddleeast is simply wonderful! I like to wash my face 3-4 times a day and the moisturizers I used previously would leave dry patches on my face. But with this cream I have no such problems 😊 It is a little bit heavy but it gets absorbed on your skin really quickly and leaves you feeling light and hydrated! It also has a hint of fragrance which you can smell all day long. It is on offer at local grocery stores in the UAE and I just got myself two more of these 🙈

Garnier  Color Naturals



My favorite hair dye ❤️ 

Just fyi, my hair color is black and Ive been using hair dyes that are supposed to make you 'blonde' for years. Trust me, if you have black hair you can use this dye to get dark brown hair and thats the lightest your hairs going to be! So dont be afraid to pick the lightest color of hair dye! I use hair dye basically for adding more volume to my hair since it is very thin. Idk what the logic behind hair dye and volumnous hair is but it works 🙊 Also, the hair dye lasts atleast three months even if you wash your hair everyday like I do
