10850813_10204422411972739_2038550874_n

If you’ve never used ❤ olive oil ❤ as part of your beauty regimen, you’re in for a real treat. It is rich in squalane, a natural emollient that is great for your #nails, lips,hair, and skin. In addition, it is packed with  Vitamins A & E and polyphenols that make it popular in many prepackaged beauty products. You can use it at home as part of your routine to:

~Deep condition your hair: Weekly, give hair and scalp a massage with slightly heated olive oil applied liberally. Comb through hair and let set for at least an hour or two. Shampoo hair to remove oil and thoroughly rinse. This will leave you with unbeatable shine and healthier looking hair with fewer split ends.

~Substitute for daily hair conditioner: A small amount of olive oil applied after shampooing can be substituted for hair conditioner. Apply a small drop into your palm & then rub both hands together & then apply it to dry hair.

~Remove makeup: Using a cotton swab, dab a bit under your eyes, on your cheeks and forehead, then wipe with a damp cloth. Finish by using a gentle cleanser. Your skin will be soft and smooth. Olive oil is a great option for those with sensitive skin.

~Soft Lips :Just dab on your finger and smear to relieve dry and chapped lips

~Soften dry and cracked feet: A little extra virgin olive oil makes a fabulous

~Replace shaving cream:Do you have sensitive skin? Be gentle with your legs by using olive oil as a shaving cream. Olive oil is a safe and organic alternative for shaving foam and results in a close shave that is less expensive and leaves your legs feeling silky and smooth.

~Use as a massage oil: You can create a mixture of organic oils: extra virgin olive oil, grapeseed oil, coconut oil, in equal parts along with a small amount of jojoba or almond oil and vitamin E as a preservative that keeps your skin smooth and soft.

~Get healthy skin:Olive oil is a great skin moisturizer, in part because it contains linoleic acid, a compound not made by the body, but which prevents water from evaporating. It also contains a polyphenols hydroxytyrosol, an antioxidant that reinforces cell walls and reduces signs of aging..Splash your face with water before applying.

~Clean makeup brushes:Mix olive oil with a tsp of dishwashing liquid. Rub a small amount on the brush and wipe the brush back and forth on the palm of your hand, then rinse.

~ Body exfoliant: Mix 1 cup sweet almond oil with 1 cup salt (Epsom salts, fine or coarse sea salt, brown sugar etc.). Add a few drops of essential oil. After a shower, rub some of it over your body for a stimulating exfoliation.

~Anti Wrinkle for undereye: Apply some olive oil on your under-eye skin and massage it gently. Leave overnight and wakeup with soft hydrated eyes

How To Find Your Perfect “Foundation” ?

Hey sweethearts 💖

Just a mini post today,

As I get so many questions about ” Best foundation ” , and ” How to find the perfect shade ”
2015/01/img_8040.jpg

phewww … I know its not an easy task to find your right shade !! Even i had hard times choosing the right shade for me when I started applying foundation,

Sometimes I looked like a Wax Figure , (oh boy trust me that doesn’t look cool)
When I actually came to know that how scary i was looking 😂 I started googling to gain some knowledge about ” choosing the right shade ” and for a flawless application 👍

Okay so, choosing a foundation isn’t that difficult , but definitely its just time consuming,

This is what I do before opening my wallet:

•There are different formulas for different –skin types

Liquid foundation – All skin type
Powder foundation – normal – oily skin
mouse foundation – combination – Oily skin
Cream foundation : normal – dry skin
BB cream – All skin type

The whole point of wearing a foundation is to give us a smooth canvas, to hide flaws and blur the appearance of pores.

Never try foundation that is too light or too darker than your skin , also don’t try to use foundation / powder to change the color your face ! It shows up in the camera or daylight which is so not pretty darling.

•Matching•

Avoid trying it on your arm, hand, or wrist, as these areas of the body can be different shades than your face.🙏
apply three different shades of foundation in vertical stripes, from the cheekbone to right below the jawbone.
And always go and check in the natural light
The shade that disappears and blends into the face and neck is the one for you.
2015/01/img_8039.jpg

•Coverage•

Sheer – lightest coverage for even out skin tone ,have a natural look for daily basis
Medium – To hide blemishes, discolorations or other minor imperfections.
Full – Hides imperfections/scars Best for photoshoots/ weddings

Start making the makeup appear completely Natural … By using the right shade and starting with a small amount of foundation to blend well 😘

I hope you find it helpful 👍

Will post my top favourite foundation’s soon 👍

Till then keep shining 😘

Mini Review : Bourjois Eyebrow Pencil – Eyebrow Mascara

Hi loves, ❤️

Recently I’m digging into Bourjois products their lipsticks , eyeshadows , eyeliner & mascara … Im So obsessed with it 😍
&
Bourjois (middle east) were sweet enough to send me Bourjois sourcil precision eyebrow pencil & Eyebrow Mascara to try and review about it 😍
2015/01/img_7674.jpg

Read more to find out what I have to say about it.

Bourjois sourcil precision eyebrow pencil :
2015/01/img_7894.jpg

Let me start by saying : I have very sparse brows and nothing bothers me more than at the end of the day, seeing that half of my brows are gone – yikes! 🙈

This eyebrow pencils Define my brows and add color. Applies product smoothly , its a bit on a dry side but works well . The medium shade suits light to medium hair; the dark shade is best for medium to dark hair.
And the brush lid is handy too 😋 , though not as good as a spoolie.
It glides on great and creates full, natural brows and most importantly – it STAYS on.
2015/01/img_7893.jpg

Overall : I tend to like more natural brows and I feel like this pencil does a pretty good job.Long lasting and wide range of color selection 👍
*Very good for every day use. ☺️

Bourjois Drole De Sourcils – Eyebrow Mascara:
2015/01/img_7897.jpg 2015/01/img_7896.jpg

the colors are very natural looking and makes my brows look thicker and more
Create full, natural-looking eyebrows.
Build further definition and intensity of eyebrows when layered on top of brow pencil application.Keeps my brows in place all day long- bc it is waterproof … Wallah 😍

It’s not “dark” dark brown, it’s almost a shimmery brown but in a nice way.if that makes any sense ,😋
2015/01/img_7895.jpg

Overall : My eyebrows look a bit more voluminous & thick with this mascara, with a lovely hint of golden brown.

Eyebrow people (Like Me) should try this 😃 LOL

What do you think about Bourjois brow products? Have you tried it?
Much Love

Love Yourself ❤️

Hey my be-you-tiful shining dolls,

How Are you all doing ?

So, today I’m feeling to talk about how to Love Yourself ❤️ I know it’s totally a different topic .. Not a beauty/makeup related thingy.. But, Just to find and love your inner “U” ! I want to motivate u & Kickstart your inner beauty 😘

Let me share my biggest secret with you all.
I’m a very Shy girl with a low “self esteem”
I know I know , being a beautyblogger , I have to be a social butterfly , and I’m still in a process of gaining confidence..
Which is now improving day by day ☺️👍

My first step towards gaining “confidence” was to Love Myself..❤️ Self-acceptance .. & Self respecting ❤️

Once you start loving yourself, you can find your own way to happiness ❤️ you will come to know what you want to do ❤️

Loving yourself is a step by step process, and it comes by firstly admitting to ourselves that we are worthy.

It isn’t only important to Be positive about yourself, but you also really have to decide what kind of a woman you want to be. You can’t truly get to know and love another person until you truly know and love yourself?

2015/01/img_7683.jpg

Give constant attention to yourself, Work on giving yourself “self-love” daily, remind yourself that you are the first priority in your own life. After all, if you don’t have you, everything else becomes irrelevant, right?

Just Be true to yourself and don’t worry about what others are thinking. It takes courage to be who we truly are, to reveal ourselves to the world. So don’t be discouraged by what other people think ! 😇
Sometimes in our life We no longer love ourselves and begin to lose a sense of our own self-worth. Everyone have their own issues, whether it’s personal or professional we all have to face problems, Face it with a smile But never give-up .. Honour yourself and start treating yourself with care.🌹

Have some respect for yourself. Treat yourself as you want others to treat you. Really, it works.❤️
So darlings❤️, Commit to “learning to love yourself” beginning today. This is one relationship thats going to be with you forever.

Find your happiness ❤️

I Hope you like this post 😘

xoxo

Review : Lush CupCake Fresh Face Mask

Hey My Glamies 💋
Hope you all are shining ✨

I cant express how much I love Lush,its one of my favorite store 💚 I love there bath Bombs/ Hair products/ shower Gels /skincare .. List goes on and on …its handmade / preservative free / all natural ingredients..etc etc

Today Im reviewing Lush – Cupcake {Fresh Face Mask}
/home/wpcom/public_html/wp-content/blogs.dir/a39/76126945/files/2014/12/img_7488-0.jpg

Chocolate heaven for oily and teenage skin. Helps absorb excess oil and calm breakouts. coco butter, Linseed and cocoa powder soften with balancing peppermint, spearmint and sandalwood oils •

~Due to the fresh ingredients, you have to keep these face masks refrigerated.

~This mask has a quick expiration
~This mask is vegan
~If you bring back 5 of these little black empty pots, you’ll get a free face mask!
/home/wpcom/public_html/wp-content/blogs.dir/a39/76126945/files/2014/12/img_7491-0.jpg

~My Thoughts~

Umm, This fresh face mask was designed for oily, troublesome skin. I know i have super”Dry” skin , and it’s certainly troublesome.

So following the instructions on the container, I made sure my face was clean and then used on my entire face, avoiding my eyes and mouth area,

Its smells “heaven of chocolate”
Ahhhhhhhhhh,exactly like wearing a tingly face mask of chocolate mint cupcake batter!

I usually let it dry by 10-15 mins,
And then rinsed it off with warm water …
..

I instantly felt my skin became much softer / clean , and more hydrated even though its not meant for dry skin.. Wow
/home/wpcom/public_html/wp-content/blogs.dir/a39/76126945/files/2014/12/img_7486-0.jpg

After removing the mask you could still smell the chocolate mint 😍 yumm

Overall,I love this fresh mask,
•it doesn’t leave my skin dry
•its brightening – glowing but not as good as “Cosmetic Catastrophe”(My all time fav mask from lush)
•absorbs all excess oils.
•deep cleanses and takes dirt out of the pores.
I would definitely repurchase this but I really want to try every mask they have first

Do ask for the sample and try it out first before buying the full size product

Have you tried Cupcake?
What is your favorite LUSH product?

Much Love
Zeee ❤

Beauty Hacks : Tea Tree Oil

Hey Lovelie
Today’s post is on
~ How do I use tea tree “essential” oil ~
First of all lets put some light on whats tea tree oil ~
Tea tree oil Is also known as “Melaleuca oil” It has been used for centuries by cultures around the world to heal wounds.

IMG_6697-2.PNG

IMG_6698-1.PNG
Its: antibacterial, antimicrobial, antiseptic, antiviral, balsamic, cicatrisant, expectorant, fungicide, insecticide, stimulant and sudorific substance.

Wow!! Sounds super HG right ?! 😀 Ands smells great too The magical healing and disinfectant properties that is in the oil can be used as a cure for almost all tropical infections and diseases!!
✨How i use it ✨

Acne :

one of the best home remedies for acne.Tree oil has powerful antibacterial properties ,Just apply a drop of this wonderful oil straight on your pimple using a Q-tip before going to bed (do it for couple of nights) and see your acne healing. (Don’t apply Tea Tree oil all over your skin, target only your acne breakouts.) You can also add about 10 drops of the antibacterial Tea Tree oil to your regular face wash.

Muscles pain :
Tea tree essential oil can provide relief from muscular pain, aches, and sprains because its strong chemical properties can work as an anti-inflammatory (add few drops into your bathtub and just relax for good 10-15 minutes)

Flu :
Diffuse through the air, add a drop to the pillow, or gently massage into the feet to absorb the properties into the blood stream quickly.

Colds:
Treat the common cold by inhaling steam infused with the oil, or massage into the feet and over the chest or other areas of concern.

Brush Cleansing:
effectively and safely disinfects and cleans your brushes quickly & kill germs .Add two drop of tea tree oil per 1/4 cup of warm or hot water in your container of choice and soak or spray your tools. Rinse with sterile water and let dry.

Dandruff cure :
Tea Tree oil benefits include dandruff cure.Tea Tree oil has been used as an effective treatment for dandruff for many years. Just add a few drops of Tea Oil mixed in with your usual shampoo; wash and rinse out as usual.

Dry/Itchy Eyes:
Although no essential oil should ever be put IN the eye, you can still benefit from the oil by diffusing it or placing your head over a steaming pot of water with a drop of melaleuca in it.

Facial Mist :
great face freshner , just after your workout
fill your spray bottle with rose water/drinking water & add 3-4 drops of tea tree essential oil … and spray it when you need that freshness kick … ( you can use this as your DIY homeMade Deo too) 😉

However, it is not meant to be ingested, and is poisonous. It is meant for topical application only!

I would like to officially announce that I am not a pro beauty expert 😀 but everything is based on my personal experience !

Hope you enjoy this post! Lots of Love Zeee !! ❤️
