How’s it going my lovely readers?

It’s Monday again but I’m taking it easy and blogging to you from my bed in the afternoon. So I thought I’d skip the morning keynote and share with you something that I have discovered lately – something that would interest all of you, whether you’re looking to make money online or just browse the internet for unique ideas and products.

Intrigued? Well, it’s about ezebee.com – a new online selling site, where you can buy or sell your products, services and even second hand items to an all open, large international audience. It was fun going through the site and the experience left me feeling inspired and excited.

Yay – it’s Friday today – TGIF!

Hope you had a wonderful week with no drama or disaster. And even if there was drama, I hope you were able to handle it gracefully.

As for me, I’m already in the holiday mood, chilling out on the couch with my favorite tea – Twinings Earl Grey, while browsing through my Facebook feed. Here’s a cup of tea for you (*nudging the cup and saucer towards you*). Continue reading

Oh winter,

How much I hate you – you’re just so damned cold and dark!

For a while a there, you had me totally under your curse – locked up in my room, snuggled inside the quilt with nothing much to do but brood over the darkening days.

Now with sun shining in all its glory – thank God, I’m totally over you.

Valentine’s is past, birds are back, leaves are green – ah, welcome to spring!

I am a fragrance person and I love using distinctive scents when the seasons change. And so to welcome spring I have bought this orange scented Satsuma Body Polish from The Body Shop Satsuma range because it just seemed so fresh and springy to me.

A couple of months back I tried – Hair for Sure tonic from Athena Life Sciences for my hair loss problem and –came away totally impressed. I decided to keep an eye on the brand.

I often get dandruff from time to time, particularly when the seasons change. And to treat it I often reach for an anti-dandruff shampoo – sometimes Dove, sometimes Heads & Shoulders depending on the condition of my hair and scalp. But while these shampoos are effective in treating dandruff, they leave me with super dry hair.

Learning D’Free Anti-Dandruff Lotion too is a product from Athena Life Sciences, I immediately bought it to treat my dandruff problem during this winter. Now whether, this anti-dandruff overnight lotion turned out to be a hit or a miss, read review to discover. Continue reading

I have dry, wavy hairs that tend to get all the more dry and unruly in hot, humid weather. So quite rationally, I always use some sort of leave-in hair oil or conditioner on my ends to keep them throwing any wild fits. But still no matter how well they behave indoors, when the temperature soars outside and humidity proliferates, they turn into feral vampires.

I had been using L’Oreal Professional Liss Unlimited leave in cream to keep my hair looking calm and smooth. But this was back when I was using flat iron every other day to straighten my hair and it left me with super dry, frizzy hair. And while it did help me bring my mop back to the brink, it’s been weighing my hair down of-late, maybe since I have now embraced my natural waves and chilled out of heat styling. Continue reading

Happy Valentine’s Day Lovelies!

Call me traditional or call me crazy but every Valentine’s Day, I fall in love with the color Pink. There’s something about ‘Pink’ that just feels *right*for the day.

And why not? After all, “Men want women to be pink, helpless and do a lot of deep breathing. If a girl has curviness, exciting lips and certain breathlessness, it also helps. And it won’t do a bit of harm if she has a kittenish, soft cuddly quality” ~ Jayne Mansfield.

So girls, whether you want to spend the day with your man, go out with your girl-friends, or just pamper yourself, here’s a perfect pink plan to celebrate Valentine’s Day the feminine way: Continue reading
