3 Step Clinique Skincare Routine ♡

Posted by Unknown at 11:47 PM 0 comments
Hey guys! Happy weekend everyone! Today I decided to share with all of you a skincare routine that I have been following, or have been "trying" to follow, everyday. With school and everything I rarely get enough time to just chill out and do things at a slow pace so I don't really have time for all the three steps and long procedures but I still felt like this was an important part of my day and I had to try keeping it up, besides the steps don't take too much time which is probably the thing I love most about this, it's beneficial yet not too time consuming.

The first step is the liquid facial soap, which is for dry combination skin. It's fragrance free, allergy tested and fully developed by dermatologists. It's a very gentle and soft feeling face wash. It's perfect for skin that's more dry in the cheek areas, and comfortable to oily in the T-zone. This always leaves my skin feeling fresh, very clean, and tremendously comfortable. It's also non-drying, and I sometimes even use this on it's own when I'm late in the morning and barely have any time for anything.

Clinique Liquid Facial Soap Mild
The second step is the clarifying lotion which is also for dry combination skin. This is a very comfortable and non-drying exfoliator that very gently removes dull, and dry flakes in order to uncover the skin that's vibrant and glowing, by rubbing off the dead skin with a cotton disk slightly soaked in the lotion. I love how this just freshens up the skin, and makes it so healthy looking, feeling, and being just with a few sweeps a day. 

Clinique Clarifying Lotion
The third and final step is the dramatically different moisturising gel on which I have a separate review over here! This one is for combination oily to oily skin unlike the others, and I got this one just because I didn't really like how the one for dry skin took longer to absorb, and in general just didn't like the feel for some reason, but of course that is according to preference. This has improved my skin texture, and it especially works well after the two previous steps, because the two previous steps ensure that you have a very clean and fresh face.

Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Gel
That was all for today's post! Hope you enjoyed, and I hope this helped you in some way. What are your favorite skincare products, or what's your routine? Have a good day/night and don't forget to smile :)

Product Review: Posie Balm by Benefit ♡

Posted by Unknown at 12:51 AM 0 comments
Hi all! Today I am doing yet another product review, and this time I decided to review the Posie Balm by Benefit!

This balm comes in different shades but I decided to get Posie because I definitely liked it the most, but you can obviously choose whichever shade suits you better, the shades aren't very vibrant yet you can see a slight difference when you apply the different shades on to your lips. It has a very pretty natural-like color, and a faint fruity-ish sweet smell which I cannot really describe, so you'll have to trust me on word, it's not so bad, I actually really really really enjoy it, it's amazing. Another thing I really like about this, is it's very soft on the lips and it gives them a very nice, and healthy feel. The application of this feels very smooth too. I also like how this lip balm is not sticky, and not too thick and heavy. It moisturises the lips, and has a conditioning effect. It's like a little combination of a lovely scent, a pretty light color with some shine, and a hydrating lip product! Perfect combo for everyone! I definitely recommend this.



I hope you all enjoyed this product review, and if you do get the posie balm I would love to know what you think of it! Hope you all had a great weekend and a good night/day, and don't forget to smile:)

Italy (Milan - Pesaro - Milan) Day 4 ♡

Posted by Unknown at 3:18 PM 0 comments
Day 4!!









I didn't take many pictures today as I barely had any time. We woke up at 5am and set off to the station in order to get to Pesaro for an exhibition by Biesse. We missed our connection train from Bologna and ended up going on to Florence, and afterwards had to go back to Bologna. It was super hectic and tiring, however we did make some friends and met lots of great people. When we got to the exhibition, it was great there too, and everyone was super sweet and welcoming. When we were done there we decided to take a ride into town and see shops over there before our train back. When we were done with that, we took the train back to Milan, which another tiring and long journey, and we ended up reaching at almost 12am, but it was alright in the end. 

I am not going to post Day 5 since that's the day we flew back to Dubai and there are no pictures from the airplane or any of that.. But hope you enjoyed the Italy trip! And if you did I would love to know if you want me to post pictures and day summary's next time I travel. Have a lovely day/night and don't forget to smile :)

Italy (Milan) Day 3 ♡

Here is Day 3!!











Today was a day of walking. We wanted to go to a shopping place that was pretty far from where we stayed, and we didn't exactly know the streets or anything. After the taxi has left us and were done with that shop, which we didn't really like, we decided to go back to another place. However there were no taxis and we didn't even have a phone to call. We figured out things after long walking through different place, and coming across different shops. Finally we found the taxi number and went where we needed to go. We got back to Duomo quiet late, when all the stores were closing, however we did get to go to La Rinascente a second time, just before it's closing. It was a very tiring, but fun and adventurous day!

Hope you enjoyed, have a great day/night and don't forget to smile :)

Italy (Milan) Day 2 ♡

Hey!! Here is Day 2!!













Today was another day of shopping!!! We went to Galleria Vittorio Emanuelle which has most of the brands and a really nice caffe! We went to other shops too like Pull&Bear, and went into the Milan Cathedral. Today wasn't a very rainy day, but nevertheless the weather was still incredible! Today I also fell in love with my outfit, it literally felt like I was walking around in pyjamas all day when I actually wasn't, It was cute yet comfy. Also, we tried another restaurant today and it seems like every place we walk into seems to be better than the other, it's all just incredible. Anyway, to wrap up Day 2 all I gotta say is, it was super! Hope you all have a good day/night and don't forget to smile :)

Italy (Dubai - Milan) Day 1 ♡

Posted by Unknown at 1:27 AM 0 comments
Hey guys! I am in Italy for a couple of days so I thought, why not share a summary and some pictures at the end of every day.



















Since we just arrived today we didn't do anything too extreme, but still had a great time. After arriving we barely had any rest, changed into different outfits, and went out to explore the city. We came right into the fall season so it has been raining practically the whole day, however it was still simply incredible. And the temperature was about 15°C (59°F). We saw the Cathedral which is absolutely stunning and all the little shops and buildings around! It was a little bit of a challenge finding a place to eat in the evening since we were pretty tired, and didn't really know our way around, I believe we were lost at some point, but eventually got through and found a cozy little restaurant, which served some really tasty food! I didn't attach pictures of the food because I couldn't even think of taking pictures when I started eating (hahaha) Anyway, that was all for today! Hope you all have a great day/night, and don't forget to smile :)
