Skin Sunday

For those who know me well,
I am NOT someone who has skin rituals.
It has always been my in my New Year's Resolutions or to do list
but never done it regularly.

I was fixing toiletries in the bathroom
and realized that I have bought a 6-pack box of Bliss Facial Mask.

So I said to myself,
maybe I'll start small.
This is only once a week anyways.
Seems doable.

And so I followed the instructions.
Wow! It is not easy as I thought it would be for a first timer.
The only time I get a mask is when I go for a facial once in a blue moon.
And on that occasion,
your eyes are closed so how in the world will I know how much was applied!

Here am I,
the home facial mask virgin!


I sent this pic to a trusted beauty guru friend of mine
and alas I put too much especially in my forehead.
She said "see looks like an iceberg!". hahaha

Thanks to technology that I called her after applying 
as I didn't know what to do after. lol

It's a lot of work I must say.
But I hope in time,
I'll get used to it & do it in no time.

That's how life should be,
we should be at least #BetterThanBefore.

xoxo



P.S. What is your favorite facial mask brand? Or do you have any homemade recipe?

I would want to know. Cheers!

Flores in Londres

This jet lag is not fun and I'm in need of something to perk me up. To tire myself and hopefully go to bed earlier, we walked around the neighborhood. Britain in Bloom is the largest horticultural campaign in the United Kingdom. This year is its 50th Anniversary. The winners for the competition will be announced in September. While walking, I've noticed these blue round signs on some of the houses. Apparently, these are historical landmarks. And after some Lebanese food (they have a lot of them here!), we also decided to walk home and burn those calories. In the corner of our street is a flower stand which is literally called "The Flower Stand". My fiance got me a bunch of pink long stemmed roses and eucalyptus. And since I don't have vases yet, I decided to use these tall glasses for the living room and recycle the wine bottles for the kitchen. These flowers have indeed ...

Homemade Healthy Fudge

Image
It's National Fudge Day! Fudge is a soft crumbly or chewy sweet made from sugar, butter, and milk or cream. I'm trying my best to stay away from refined sugar and dairy products so I decided to try to make a healthy fudge. This is refined sugar-free and dairy-free. ;) Ingredients: 1/2 cup almond butter (or nut butter of choice) 1 banana  1 tsp pure vanilla extract a sprinkle of salt 2 tbsp virgin coconut oil, melted  2 tbsp pure maple syrup (or sweetener of choice) Instructions: Combine all ingredients in a small blender until completely smooth. Or for some exercise (need to burn some calories before indulging in a fudge! lol),  mash the banana by hand and stir together ingredients by until smooth.  Scoop into container of choice. You can be creative by using candy molds or  just the usual fudge cut into small squares or use ice cube tray to be easier! Freeze until firm.  Due to the melty nature of coconut,...
