Famous Turmeric mask 💆

Image
Holaaa. Today I'm actually posting a video on how I do my turmeric mask along with a before and after. The before and after will also be posted in a picture below so that you can see. For those of you who will not be able to watch the video, just keep reading.  So what I've got in here is some turmeric, kalonji oil and raw honey. All this can fit in one tablespoon and I still had leftovers so you really don't need much. This is my before and you can see here that I have a warm undertone with pinkish hues. I used my bowen paintbrush lol. I always use them for my facials.  I let it dry for 40 mins or more because I was watching an episode of Chicago Med.  Here you can see my undertone is more yellowish and brighter now which I like more as the rest of my body looks like that 😊 If you'd rather watch the video then go ahead 😌 Thank you so much for your time and don't forget to share, comment and follow me he

DIY Hijab Pins 🍡

Assalaam everyone! Today I finally sat down and made some hijab pins and listened to some Vidya Vox music.  Btw, I think my friend Tashreekah is the milky version of Vidya. Idk. I went and got some beads from the Bead Shop in Warwick Street, Claremont and some long Pear Pearl Pins from the Haberdashery in Warwick Street too. I used the nail glue that I already had which I use for all but gluing falsies onto my nails because no. Anyway, let's get started. Now that we've got what we need, we'll start by removing some of the heads of the pins. To be very honest, that tool didn't help me in removing them and I couldn't find a cutter at home so I used a brick and knocked them off so very easily. I'm not sure why I didn't think to look for a hammer. Inner cave woman behaviour perhaps? See? Now we'll get creative and mix and match your jewels and glue them on. You need a really strong hold glue btw. I've stuck them all toge

Welcome back to another blogpost with the infamous Nishy. So today we are going to speak about which essential oils I use and why I use them. HUGE DISCLAIMER: I am not a profesh beauty something and I do what works for me. If you are suffering from any allergies, illnesses or may be pregnant then please consult your healthcare practitioner before using essential oils. Now that we've got that off my chest, we can get started. I use oils from different brands and I purchase them from Dischem Pharmacy .  - So we first going to speak about the Sweet Orange essential oil which is my fav all because of the scent. What I do is I use 1-3 drops of this oil and mix it with a bit of coconut oil and I apply this to my face and neck as it is very refreshing and smells like wonderlust if you love sweet oranges y'all. I also throw this into my bath when I feel like it. According to research, some of the amazing benefits includes, but is not limited to: Fighting cancerous t
