Top 5 Quick Beauty Hacks #WriteAPageADay

 Today being the last day of #WriteAPageADay, I am glad that I could reach my goal and immensely grateful to Blogchatter for giving us such a supportive platform for bloggers and writers and also to all the bloggers in this incredible blogging community who inspire each other to keep on doing what we love the most, i.e. writing. I have tried to write a piece daily based on the challenge prompts provided by Blogchatter. Today, with a slight change, I am writing about a few beauty hacks instead of life hacks.


Top 5 Quick Beauty Hacks

1. Coconut/olive oil as a night moisturizer: If you are running out of your night cream and desperately need moisturization, your coconut or olive oil can be useful. Remember that 2 drops are enough for your entire face and neck.  Both the oils have high moisturizing benefits. But make sure to cleanse it off the next morning. 


2. Grapeseed/Argan oil for quick radiance: If you are about to wear a foundation that makes your skin look dry and patchy, a quick massage of a few drops of argan or grapeseed oil before your makeup application can ensure a smoother and radiant finish. Both have great anti-aging properties.

3. Carrying a hydrating face mist/rose water spray: If your skin is feeling very dry in ac environment or if it becomes too sweaty in outside environment a face mist or rose water spray works great for instant fresh skin. 


4. DIY Tinted lip balm: If you have a pot of small petroleum jelly, adding a little drop of your favourite shade of liquid lipstick will give you the preferred shade of tinted lip balm. Liquid lipstick can dry, and petroleum jelly does not add colour to the lips; it moisturises. A mixed balm with both can ensure a plumped and tinted pair of pouts.


5. DIY BB Cream: This is a must for short trips. All you need is a small empty jar, a spatula, a sunscreen of your choice, a moisturizer and a few drops of your foundation. Pour 2 spoons of sunscreen, 1 spoon of moisturizer and 4-5 drops of foundation in the jar. Mix them up with the spatula. Your BB cream is ready.


Hope these beauty hacks will be helpful for all.

Mushy Mushrooms, Mini Macaroons & 5 Whodunnit Murder Mysteries to Watch on My Breakfast Plate

By

As the mother of a fourth-grade student, my mornings start at 5:30 a.m. daily. Making breakfast and setting up lunchboxes keep me occupied during those hours and since I like to keep it simple for breakfasts, they generally get quite boring, with either bread toasts or chapattis. (common story of a lot of moms). Sometimes our wishes can go to an extravaganza and the longing for a due break with a lavish breakfast consisting of some creamy- buttery mushy mushrooms sprinkled with roasted garlic, some berry-flavoured mini macaroons and to top it all a thrilling, chilling old-fashioned Whodunnit Murder Mystery Movie playing on TV just makes things perfect. Sounds like quite a plateful right? Since we have already made a grand plan of how my breakfast plate is going to look, let's narrow down the list of Murder Mystery movies that can be included in my watchlist. 1. Knives Out (2019): Imagine digging your fork into a plateful of yummy creamy mushrooms, tuning into Daniel...

Top 5 Films Based on Communal/Civil Wars and Internal Feuds

A couple of days back I watched a film, only to get a headache and I forgot its name too. But still, I watched it, some people won't change. Will they? Like nations in continuous wars and internal feuds -God knows what they get out of it. War has not done good for anyone ever. While their purpose is best known to them, my purpose as a cinema lover is to create a list of films that cover topics of Communal/Civil war and internal feuds:   1. The Killing Fields: I had no idea about the history of Cambodia, till I watched this 1984 film, during my mid-twenties. A nation that was absolutely devastated as a result of the killing of thousands of its citizens under the bloodthirsty Khmer Rouge reign - Killing Fields covered this history through the pen of a New York Times journalist and his Cambodian associate. The movie is difficult to watch due to the depiction of the horrid nature of the brutality that innocent people had to go through. Pran, the Cambodian journalist had to endeav...

5 Dumb Movies that are Secretly Clever

I have always avoided films like "Drunken Master" and other movies that begin and end with a fight. The same goes for mindless action films too. However, there are a few movies that I have watched that may seem incredibly foolish and dumb but if you manage to watch those you will realise they are quite clever. So, here is my list of 5 Dumb Movies that are Secretly Clever. 1. Tucker and Dale vs. Evil: When 2 worthless friends go for a vacation, their adventures turn into a disastrous misadventure and a massacre due to misunderstandings and unfortunate turn of events. This movie is gory, bloody and yet stupidly hilarious. The execution style is of a slapstick comedy with the chills and thrills of a gory slasher, making it a unique dark comedy. How some people's false assumptions about 2 people turn into a nightmare for both parties is the main story behind this goofy massacre. 2. One Cut of the Dead: In the beginning this film looks like a low-budget mindless zombie flick, ...
