Skin is the largest organ our body possesses. You don’t have to be a beauty expert to know the importance of keeping your skin looking healthy and vibrant. The reality is it is up to us to take the driver’s seat and be the dictators of our skin’s destiny.

One of the major steps you can take to help your skin stay healthy is to sleep well. The general requirement for an adult is to get eight undisturbed sleep hours a night. For some of us that’s not easy to do. Maybe you suffer from sleep apnea or insomnia. Or are you the type that likes to burn the candle at both ends?

Partly, because the offer was lucrative but mainly because I really, really wanted to know what make these sheet masks so wildly popular among the celebs and the beauty bloggers? Continue reading

Thank you Olay Moisture Ribbons Plus Body Wash for turning me into a soft cotton ball!

A crisp beauty backdrop:

I have super dry skin. And if you’re a regular reader of my blog, you know how annoying I may get fretting about my dry skin condition here on the blog.

I’ve raved about L’Oreal Professionnel Shampoos a few times on my blog, mainly because they are such an amazing and effective range of shampoos for almost all hair types and concerns. So this time again, when my hair suffered from the seasonal hair fall, I turned to my old savior – L’Oreal.

Since this time, it was not just the seasonal hair fall but some medical issues too that were causing the hair loss, I noticed that my hair had become thinner and less voluminous. So instead of the tried and tested L’Oreal force vector shampoo, I decided to try the variant specifically meant for thinning hair and hair loss – L’oreal Density Advanced Shampoo. Continue reading

New in market – Hair and care fruit oil!
