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

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

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 !! ❤️

Fragrance of the week : L’INSTANT DE GUERLAIN

Hi my Gorgeous Glamies❤️

Hope you all be-YOU-tifuls are shining😘

This is my first post on Perfume!! yay !!

✨L’INSTANT DE GUERLAIN
EAU DE TOILETTE
Moments of emotion✨
IMG_6118-1.PNG

Crystalline Floral.
Intimate, luminous, sensual.

Luminous freshness and sparkling tenderness. A burst of apple lemonade announces the tender and radiant notes of a lacy ream of white flowers, while a soft veil of amber melts into the skin.

Its bottle is cut from a luxurious and transparent block of glass. Crowned with a flat stopper, sculpted like a cabochon and engraved with the Guerlain logo, its shapes play with the contrast between the rectangle and curves.
IMG_6123-0.PNG

~My Thoughts~
So,basically i am a true perfume addict😍 its My Passion/My Obsession/My Love … Everything…

I’ve always had a thing for warm, sexy scents. ❤️ and To describe L’INSTANT DE GUERLAIN in three words, I would say it’s warm, seductive and mysterious. It’s the kind of scent that smells fuzzy,sexy and soothing with a whiff of sweetness!

it’s very wearable for everyday use though I’d like it better during the winter months for it sensual warmth and coziness💋

💎 It might be overwhelming for someone who doesn’t appreciate strong scents.💎

L’INSTANT DE GUERLAIN 50 ml bottle which will last me quite a while I suppose. The scent wears for about 7-8 hours on me!! (Super Long Lasting)Overall, I loveeeeeeeee this!

Ratings : 4 / 5

So ,
What do you think about this?

Much Love,

Best of MAC 101 !!! Pearl frost !!

Hey loves! 💋

I wanted to do a review on this Mac Cream base “PEARL FROST” product because it is one of my all-time favorite highlighters.its gorgeously stunning goldy white champaign color ..lol 😍 I like that it is a cream product, it is perfect for spring/summer for a natural radiance look. It really melts into your skin, and doesn’t look fake at all.

It is very white looking in the pan, but it gives a nice soft glow to the skin. It is very natural looking and sheer, which is what I want. It is very creamy and easy to blend with your fingers. I dab this onto my cheekbones, nosebridge and my cupid’s bow.I also use MAC 188 brush to apply sometimes..

Its on the “expensive” side forsure
But it goes on long way…

Do let me know what do you think about this gorgeous baby✨✨
