I created the blog in 2011 during my high school days and then went on to regret the domain name. More than writing, I love my kitchen-experiments; currently hoarding cast iron pans.

My Current Skin Care Routine : November 2017

my current skincare routine

Hey, people! As you might know, I’ve just started paying attention to my skin after long months and I mentioned the same in my previous post. Today, I shall be sharing my current skin care routine along with a little information on what supplements I’ve been taking lately! I’m yet to do major skin care shopping (planned!) so for now, I’m taking care of my skin with the stuff I already own!

Day 1 of Using Glycolic Acid : My Experience

glyco 6

It has been a while since I treated my skin good. Over the last few months, my skin has been ignored; it has been tortured by sunlight and dust. Honestly, it is at its worst now! (Being extremely photosensitive, even a minute of light exposure causes redness and sunburn on my skin) As much as I love a healthy chocolate-tan, I dislike my skin to be unevenly toned or rough.

I don’t believe in bleaching or whitening my skin tone but I believe the uneven permatan can be reduced to achieve a smooth, even look all over the body! More than the looks, I want to make my skin healthier and less sun sensitive!

So that is when I decided to give Glycolic acid, a try. It is one of the AHAs and is naturally derived from sugar cane. Glycolic acid has been proven to flake off the dead skin cells effectively, while not causing any damage to your skin. It took me days to read about it and finally convince my mind to try it! Now that I’m ready, I have got this 6% Glycolic acid cream with me!

Hi, people! Today, I’m writing about something that visits me often. A headache.. due to the weight of my hair. Sounds unusual? It used to be ‘every single day’ but with the help of a few ideas and without giving up the length of my hair, I now know how to shoo away headaches easily.

So yes, having long hair is not all fairytales; I must be honest with you, there are a good number of cons when it comes to maintaining a long mane but if you love your hair as much I as love mine, those shouldn’t be a problem. You must find ways to fix them and I’m going to suggest you how to overcome one such con (a headache!) today! Read on to know how I help myself not to hate my hair for giving me headaches!

Back to Blogging!

Hey, guys! It has been quite a while since I did a blog post. I’ve been going through so much lately and my health wasn’t co-operating at the same time. (Hospitalized and all that!) So it took me nearly 3 months of procrastinating (or healing?) to get back to work! And that’s not good, I know! Sorry.

I hear you! Too many excuses since last year but I’m trying my best to go back to my full-time blogging days! Since the combination the illness, the hospital stay and the heavy dose of antibiotics made me more insane, I’m taking things a bit slow. Before I get in touch with the interns/writers and start working on the content, let me tell you what’s in the store for you!

I miss my hospital days!
