“Sainsbury” for your Comfort Food!
Ever wished that when you crave your comfort food, ingredients were less complex and easily prepared. Well, sometimes such wishes do come true! I have been highly impressed by “Sainsbury’s” grocery items. They are one of the leading supermarkets in the UK and have a huge range of groceries. I have always been fond of their whole-wheat collection and their sauces, but recently I decided to try their Lasagna Sheets. In UAE, Sainsbury products are available at Kibsons (An e-commerce website for groceries, they have the best range of products and super efficient delivery system). Sainsbury offers a wide range of grocery items like any other supermarket however, they are…

My New Obsession…Huda Beauty!
As all my readers are aware, I have been a huge fan of Huda Beauty. I used to save up to buy Huda products back in India and its never let me down. My old post talks about one of their unique collections but today I have to highlight the New Liquid Matte Lipsticks that have been re-launched!

Are Small Businesses running the show?!
What do you think? Is it a small business or major big brands that have gained confidence in the market? I know there is no comparison; but don’t you think the pandemic has taught us enough. This pandemic (if you notice a silver lining) has forced us to ponder and reflect upon our passion, hobbies either for fun or for generating income. Many of us have suffered financially in some or another way. Since small businesses have come into the picture, we have gained confidence in the same. People selling food, accessories, clothes, etc which is prepared either locally or with the help of family is a much better proposition…don’t…
Salicylic Acid for Acne! Do we really need this?
I am sure I don’t need to give my insight on acne since it’s a common issue all of us face multiple times. Also, everyone has their take on getting rid of them, some use home remedies, for some a small drop of toothpaste works. However, what about the stubborn ones, how do we get rid of that acne. I myself run around for solutions and some of them don’t even make sense but I don’t hesitate to try. I was always more of a home remedy person, but recently I gained a little confidence in an ingredient that is “Salicylic acid”… I am not an expert on it but…

What are you drinking first thing in the morning?
What is the first drink of the day…are you only relying on water? What you need is something that would kick start your day and work on your body all day. These are two-valued drinks that I have first thing after I wake up which has helped me immensely! Jeera Water (Cumin water) is one of the most effective drink that not only boosts your immunity but provides innumerable benefits to all ages. Jeera water can either be prepared at night by soaking a few seeds overnight in a glass full of water or can be consumed in the morning like tea by boiling a few seeds. Some of its…
Travel to Greece in November!
Greece is one country that you can visit all year round and it would still be one of the most picturesque destinations. Travelers generally visit Greece in Summer which is mostly from April to June or max up to August…it is also known that tourism is at its peak during these months. Well, since my husband and I hadn’t traveled for a while due to the pandemic, we did the most unusual thing and traveled to Greece in November. Everyone questioned us…November and December are known to be one of the coldest times and then from December onwards, it tends to rain more. But, we were desperate to explore and…
