Hey my loves,
I hope you all are doing great! I love doing makeup but the task of cleaning the makeup brushes is a pain!! So I recently found a way of making this task a little less tiresome :)




Method:

1. Use the detol liquid hand soap to thoroughly wash your brushes. I love this soap because it not only deep cleans the brushes but also kills the germs!

2. Once done, set aside your brushes and spray the handles of the brushes with some disinfectant spray avoiding the brush hair.

Voila! It's done!

Oils are an essential part of our life and including it in your daily skin care regime will prove to be extremely helpful. I have been often asked about various oils and their benefits. In today's post I have included some of the most common oils plus some lesser known ones which are getting popular day by day. I hope you enjoy reading this post!




Most Common Oils

1. Coconut Oil: This is widely used as a hair oil. But it also has amazing skin benefits. Coconut oil helps with:

• Protecting skin from microbial infections
• Retains moisture content of the skin
• Delays ageing process
• Softens feet and hands
• Great Makeup remover

Hey my loves,
As requested by many of you...I am posting about my favorite Instagram shops in Jeddah. Enjoy reading!

Most of you might know that it is not easy to get hold of latest beauty products in the shops in middle east. But there are some God sent shops which sell all recently released makeup and skincare products. So here is the list in no particular order at all.


Note: All the below shops have original products and the sellers also speak fluent English.

1. Beautyparlorksa

This shop has many products and I recently discovered it when I was looking for the OFRA highlighter. Her service is amazing and also responds to messages really quick.

Hey my loves,
It's so good to finally be writing on this once and for all! Ever since I got the chance or let's say *I was blessed* to attend Aiman Shan's Master class in November...my Instagram @sugarbabbless got flooded with questions! So here I am breaking down everything for you guys!

By the way just in case you didn't know who Aiman Shan is, she is a makeup Goddess *Totally Crushing over her* based in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. But not everyone who does good makeup, also teach with their up most honesty...right? So keep reading to find out all :)

Aiman shan posted the below photograph on her Instagram @aiman_shan in November.


Just Moments later the latter picture was also posted! The Master class was Sold Out! Everyone tried to book seats ASAP!

The setup

One of the many looks that was taught during the class.

Finally, the goody bags. We each got a matte lipstick, an original beauty blender and a highlighter and of course the promised certificate too :)

Hi readers,
I know most of you love reading makeup reviews and that's why I love writing these for you. I like the fact that someone who has the same pocket size as me will surely tell me the truth as to what to buy and what not to. In today's post I bring to you the most ranted Kat Von D lock it foundation review. If you want to know more, then just keep reading!


I got this foundation from Sephora a month back and ever since I have been trying it. I was beyond excited when I got to know that Kat von D has been finally launched in Jeddah Saudi Arabia!!

It is high coverage I will say. It is good if you are looking to apply just one layer of foundation rather than building up the coverage by caking more layers. This is also good for brides especially Desi brides as it photographs beautifully!

I used my MAC feline black Kohl pencil and covered it with one layer of foundation. So you can see the coverage.

This foundation has the below properties as per the packaging:

• Full Coverage
• 24 hour wear
• Transfer Resistant
• Matte Finish
• Fragrance Free
• Oil Free

I do agree with the fact that it is full coverage but I haven't tried it for complete 24 hours. It is not transfer resistant though, because it did transfer on the collar of my dress! It is really matte but also heavy on the skin. It is not light weight at all.


If you are looking for something that is "natural" then this one is certainly not a good choice. But if you are looking for a high coverage foundation, then this is perfect. Although this has 18 shades I believe, but as usual the 'most talented sephora representatives' always give you the wrong one! They gave me a wrong shade and I have to mix it with the other foundation which is a shade darker to match my skin.



Where did I get mine?
I got mine from Sephora..

How much does it cost?
 It is for 125 SAR.

Hey Lovely Readers,
As most of you might know that I got married few months back, and wedding means lots of confusion and lots of 'oh I forgot'. So before my wedding, I made a checklist of all the things I have to keep with me at all times. I, as usual kept a lot of things, but didn't end up using most of it. So here are the things which I actually used and was thankful that I packed!

I know I have been doing reviews on a lot of skincare products lately. But that is because recently I have started really taking my skin seriously. I know most of us hardly get time to moisturize our skin properly, but it is about the things which we prioritize and our skin should definitely be on the top of the list.


I never used a serum and never thought of using it until I found out that it has more vitamins and benefits packed into it than any moisturizer in the market. Serums are a great way to one step nourishment and taking care of your skin in one small step. These also help your skin to pick up the benefits of your other skincare products deep into the layers of skin hence showing a difference.


I ordered mine a couple of months ago from Ebay and its been two months ever since I started using it. Here is what I think about it:

This serum is packed with Vitamin E which helps in reducing the signs of aging, helps in healing scars and improving skin texture. This particular serum also has Retinol.

Retinol actually in a simpler form can be known as Vitamin A. This helps in reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and other factors effecting age. Along with it's anti aging properties, retinol is actually proven to be really best for removing acne and large pores. However, large pores due to genetics cannot be easily reduced. But large pores due to sun damage and clogging can certainly be fixed.


I have been using this serum for two months now, and have seen vast difference in my skin. I have not been getting pimples as often as I used to get. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a good but reasonable serum.

I got mine from ebay.

I hope you liked this post. Until next time ...cya!

It's really been a while since I posted something about affordable makeup products. I actually have a lot of things which I purchased in the last couple of months and I would like to share a review of one such thing in today's post. I hope you like it!


I really enjoy my eyeshadow palettes and when I came to know that Morphe has released one palette which people are going nuts about...I had to get it too!

This palette as the title suggests is the Flirt and Frost palette. It has 35 colors, from which the last 7 colors are completely matte! I to be honest just took this palette for the dark matte black color which I surprisingly didn't have, although I own lots of other palettes too, but I just didn't have a  black shadow. Seriously, brands need to include a matte black color in every palette now. It's really frustrating because black is a versatile color and can be used for smokey eyes, or doubling it up as a liner. So in short I was all up for that one thing.

The last line which consists of all mattes.

This palette is soo beautiful and so highly pigmented! I just couldn't keep my eyes off this one. The frosty colors are like stila foiled shadows. They are so opaque and so easy to blend. But the mattes are a little chalky and have a little fallout. But that's Ok because for the price we can't really have all.

Some of my favorite frosty shades

I would highly recommend this palette if you are on a budget or just in general because it's so affordable and the colors are really easy to work with especially if you are a beginner. You get to play with a lot of colors and that to all neutral ones.


I got mine from Doodishop on Instagram for 150 SAR. Their service is not the best. But if you want the same palette definitely check out other Instagram sellers or online sellers like Ebay or Amazon if you have access to that.

Till next time...Cya! :)
