What Are The Benefits of Hemp Seeds?




Hemp seeds are a nutritious superfood that offer a wide range of health benefits. They are an excellent source of plant-based protein and are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are important for heart health. Hemp seeds are also a good source of fiber, which can support digestive health and help with weight management. In addition to protein and fiber, hemp seeds are also a good source of minerals, including magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium, as well as antioxidants. Some research has also suggested that hemp seeds may have anti-inflammatory properties, which may be beneficial for certain health conditions. Hemp seeds are vegan, gluten-free, and can be easily incorporated into a variety of dishes, making them a convenient and nutritious addition to any diet.

2023 Habits

 

Starting the year off on the right foot is always a great goal, and one way to do that is by focusing on your health and fitness. If you're a woman looking to get fit in 2023, here are a few tips to help you get started:

  1. Set specific and achievable goals: Instead of just saying "I want to be healthy," try setting specific goals, such as "I want to lose 10 pounds" or "I want to be able to run a 5k." This will give you something concrete to work towards, and you'll be more likely to stick to your plan.

  2. Find an activity you enjoy: Exercise doesn't have to be a chore. Find an activity that you genuinely enjoy, whether it's dancing, cycling, or swimming. This will make it easier for you to stick with your fitness routine.

  3. Don't forget about nutrition: Exercise is important, but so is nutrition. Make sure you're fueling your body with the right mix of nutrients, and try to limit your intake of processed and sugary foods.

  4. Seek support: It can be tough to stay on track with your fitness goals, especially if you're trying to do it on your own. Consider joining a gym or finding a workout buddy to keep you motivated.

  5. Be patient: Getting fit and healthy doesn't happen overnight. It takes time and consistency to see results. Don't get discouraged if you don't see progress right away – just keep working at it and you'll get there.

By following these tips and staying committed to your goals, you can start 2023 off on the right foot and set yourself up for a healthy and fit year.

Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado


I've been using this eye cream for 2 weeks now because I heard so much about it!
So far its been super moisturizing and I like the results!
It contains avocado, beta-carotene, and shea butter - all good ingredients for your under eye area. 
I am looking forward to see what all the fuss is about ;)
.
.

I will post a follow up post after I have used it for a longer period of time and let you know what I think!

Coconut oil Benefits


For the past couple of weeks I have been substituting body lotion with coconut oil (to extent possible).
It is hard to find a 100% natural find an alternative to a chemical product that works the same way! 
But this natural substitute is actually working BETTER than your average body lotion.
I'm happy with the results, but I'm not crazy about the smell which makes me avoid using it before going out during the day (it's better to use it before bedtime).

I was actually inspired to start using coconut oil after watching this Youtuber raving about it: watch it here


Here's 10 reasons why coconut oil is so good for you in general (and not just as a moisturizer)!

1. Coconut Oil Contains a Unique Combination of Fatty Acids With Powerful Medicinal Properties

2. Populations That Eat a LOT of Coconut Are Among The Healthiest People on The Planet

3. Coconut Oil Can Increase Your Energy Expenditure, Helping You Burn More Fat

4. The Lauric Acid in Coconut Oil Can Kill Bacteria, Viruses and Fungi, Helping to Stave Off Infections

5. Coconut Oil Can Kill Your Hunger, Making You Eat Less Without Even Trying

6. The Fatty Acids in Coconut Oil Are Turned into Ketones, Which Can Reduce Seizures

7. Coconut Oil Can Improve Blood Cholesterol Levels and May Lower Your Risk of Heart Disease

8. Coconut Oil Can Protect Hair Against Damage, Moisturize Skin and Function as Sunscreen

9. The Fatty Acids in Coconut Oil Can Boost Brain Function in Alzheimer’s Patients

10. Coconut Oil Can Help You Lose Fat, Especially The Dangerous Fat in Your Abdominal Cavity


Have a good day/night!

Brief Update .. Where I have been


Hi there,
It's been a long time since I posted anything here, I do miss this blog a lot!
So where have I been?
.
.
Well, for the past couple of months I've been preparing for the big move from Saudi to the States.
I'm doing my graduate work here and I'll be staying here for almost 2 years.

I'm looking forward to this journey!
And I can't wait to share my experience with you all..
I will need some time to settle in since I've only been here for almost 13 days only!



See you all very soon :)

Daily Brushes * فرش المكياج اليومية

Good morning /evening all!

I thought I'd share the brushes I use on daily basis.
Frankly I used to use a lot more brushes everyday, but ever since I started this new job where I have little time to get ready at the morning, I decided to minimize the number of brushes and the amount of makeup. ugh right?

Let's Start!

Face Brushes


Starting from left:

Powder Brush by Sigma # F30

 I use for powder and sometimes for blush if I just want an ultra natural faded look!

 # F40 Blush Brush

Which  use for contour and blush at the same time, works wonders!

Concealer Brush # F70

I love to use this one to apply concealer under the brows! and to cover blemishes

Eye Brushes


Eyeshadow Brush by MAC # 242

I use this one to apply color on the eyelid.

Blending Brush # E40

This one is amazing for an overall blending for a faded  look. I'm totally in love with this one

Blending Brush # E25

Perfect for preciser blending and cut crease




Eyebrow brushes


I use 2 different brushes for my eyebrows which is not the most convineint thing in the world!
But I use one for the begging of the brow and the other one for the end of the brow and for a more precise look.

Makeupforever # sB

I use for the start of brow, gives a great faded look to the begging of the brow

MAC # 266

Amazing for a precise look towards the end of the brow.

MET Gala Makeup Looks

Good day everyone!


Here's some of the makeup looks I liked and felt like sharing them with you from the MET Gala

Karlie Kloss


her makeup is absolutely flawless and natural!
I loved how her foundation is actually see-through!
One thing I did not like is the fact that she has hooded eye and her makeup artist chose to
put a light color all over the led which emphasized the problem in her eyes. 


Blake Lively


Blake looks angelic with this choice of color and hairdo !
It would be a perfect look if she has chosen a bit of a lilac color on the lips though..

Rosie Huntington


Oh I love the eyeliner!
Again, it's a flawless look, even though I'm a bot disappointed by the fact that her skin looks
problematic even with foundation on! Looks like a wrong choice of primer maybe!

L'occitane Hand Cream Sale





I have got my hands on this 3 set hand creams from L'occitane for the price of one!!
They usually sell it separately but I was lucky enough to find this set..
.
it's one of the hand creams that I have purchased before and absolutely recommend! 
it contains shea butter ingredients which make my hands extra soft and silky!
.
.

I doubt that you can find this now but it wont hurt to look if they still offer this at your local L'occitane shop :)

Happy Friday all

Today I'll be sharing with you part 2 of my London Haul
It's devoted to my Illamasqua purchases so let's start!!


Brow Cake: Thunder


First thing I got is this brow powder (Thunder)
It's wax and powder all in one which makes it run smooth and gives great results.



This is how it looks like on the brow (pic from google)

Face Powder
&
Contour Highlight Duo


Then I got an amazing face powder!!
I like it more than MAC's studio fix powder.

And a contour highlight palette all in one!



And this is a swatch of the products (pic from google)
WOW the highlighter is really strong !


Hydra Veil




As you see I got this amazing primer for dehydrated skin..
It's a water-based primer to apply before makeup, it has a gel-like consistency
 works as an amazing primer and prevents you from having dry flaky foundation skin!!
It makes the skin surface so smooth and moisturized!!
It's perfect for thirsty skin as it equals drinking a glass of water for your skin!!
