MY FAVORITE TV SHOWS OF THE MOMENT AND OF ALL TIME

Hey what's up people!
Today I am going to talk about my favorites shows that i have been enjoying the past few months.
So if you are looking for some new awesome TV shows to watch so please keep on reading ;)


The very first one that I wanna talk is SUITS.


Let us have a moment of how amazing this show is, I was literally so hooked on this one. I watched all three seasons in a short period of time itself.

This show is basically based on a fictitious law firm where in every episode especially in season 1 there is a new case that needs to be solved, however there are some continued episodes especially in season 3.

The duo Mike and Harvey Specter is absolutely incredible, I mean Mike is one hell of a guy and Harvey is the man!!!

This show is currently on a mid season break and is apparently returning in March and back with a season 4 and I can't tell you how impatient I am.

I would definitely recommend this show to anyone, however I would say that this is a more mature show, not in the way that it has some obsessive obscene moments but it will not be probably THE show that a 13 year old kid  will want to watch but since it is based on law and some professional thingy going on I would say that it attracts more say the young adult.

Moving on the second show is AWKWARD

Most of you have probably heard about the show since it normally airs on MTV.

Well well, this show got everything jam packed that you would expect from a teenage show.
Love- checked
Break up- checked
Teen drama- checked
Mean girls- checked
Hot guys-checked
Comedy- checked

So basically this show covers everything. This is actually about a girl named Jenna who was mistaken for an attempt to suicide where in reality it was merely an accident.

This was another show that I got hooked up with, because every time you watch an episode, it makes you wanna watch the other I'm not even kidding!

This show also is returning in the near future.

Despite being a teenage MTV show , this has actually gained a lot good responses.It has a 7.9 IMDB rating Go watch it!

The very next one has to be BREAKING BAD

This one needs no introduction. It is a very popular show, won so many awards, highest rated show on IMDB, I mean what else do you want.

There are some great performances, in my opinion the best that I have ever seen, it seems so real. Actually I can't talk very much about this show because I have watched only the first season and believe me it was so awesome, just haven't had time to watch the other seasons but as soon as I have time, I'll grab a cup of coffee and I'll watch them all.

Next on the list is THE CARRIE DIARIES

 This one I would say that it is girly show in my opinion.

This show basically is a prequel to the Sex and the City series, it shows the teenage days of Carrie Bradshaw, so eventually the show takes place in the 80's so the clothes are obviously vintage and I LOVE vintage.
 And can we talk about the character Sebastian Kid played by Austin Butler, he is so hot , girls brace yourself you gonna love this one ! ;)

This show is currently on its season 2 and airs on Fridays on the CW.

Moving one is HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER
This is not definitely a new show, it's always been there.

If you had a bad day or something and you want something to bring you up, then my dear friend you will have the best 20 minutes of your life to do so.

TEEN WOLF
This was another show which I was very happy when I found about.
This show also runs on MTV and believe me it's not really like the other teenage shows, don't be fooled by the title.
This show is obviously about wolves! Duh. Believe me it is so awesome , it has some actions, thrills, love and romance, break up, suspense and some really hot guys.

All of the characters are gorgeous, I totally recommend this show to anyone.

PRETTY LITTLE LIARS
This show has already gained lots of appreciation, and why not? The four characters Emily, Aria, Spencer and Hanna are awesome, they totally carry the show on their shoulders.

Full of thrills, suspense , love, mysteries and many more you gonna love this show.



Few other shows that I am planning to watch in the near future are
Game of thrones - I already watched the first episodes of the first season and I am looking forward to.
American Horror story- I've heard that it good so i will give it a shot.

I hope that you find some of the shows mentioned interesting if you ever planned to watch them,.
Thanks for stopping by,
xoxo

REVIEW #4 ON YVES ROCHER PURE SYSTEM DAILY EXFOLIATING CLEANSER

hey there :)
haven't been posting for quite a long time here huh!! I was so busy but now I am back

Today I am going to review a face wash that I have been  LOVING  lately.

So let me start by saying how much I love this product, you know kind of giving the answer to the question in the intro itself. This is my holy grail product that I have been using for the past six month.. So let's jump into it

THE PACKAGING
It comes in a white and blue tube just like the other products in the pure system line. You get a lot of product in there ; 125 ml anyhow you just need a tad bit of it.

THE TEXTURE
The texture is probably the thing that I love the most out of it. It is actually like a scrub, but the exfoliating beads are not too harsh at all perfect for everyday, it actually gives you the feeling it is cleaning  and removing all the nastiness on your face. It does not have a fancy smell or nothing but it does have a strong scent to it.

HOW I USE IT
I use this twice a day, one time in the morning and at night, I just take a hazel nut amount put it on my fingers and dot it all across my face and begin scrubbing in circular motion with damp fingers.

HOW IT WORKED FOR ME
Let me start by saying that I have combination to oily  and  blemish prone skin. This product contains Aloe Vera and salicylic acid in it which works great for acne prone skin in general. This product really works for me, ever since I started using it I haven't been breaking out so much except for some hormonal breakout that you get during that time of the month. 
It also gives me a glow after I use.
It is supposed to help with blackheads but I haven't seen a quite significant results at least for me with this product
TO BE NOTED: all people have different type of skins and usually the same product does not work for all of us like for instance salicylic acid does not work for everyone.

All in all I'll give it a 4.5 stars out of 5
worth trying product and cheap one as well.
I hope you find this review helpful if you do please share it

REVIEW #3: FRUCTIS NUTRI REPAIR 3 INSTANT REPAIR CONDITIONER


Hey people!! :)  today I'm back with another review. As from the title you can already tell which product it is.

so let's jump directly on my thoughts on the product.







what the brand claims about this product?


Does your hair feel damaged, dry and stressed out?
    Damaged, stressed hair needs deep nourishment. The Fructis Nutri-Repair 3 range is enriched with triple nourishing fruit oils which penetrate deep into the inner fibre of each hair strand to nourish and repair from within. 

    Fructis Nutri-Repair 3 Fortifying Conditioner is enriched with 3 active fruit oils, olive, 

    avocado and shea-butter, to intensely nourish dry, damaged and stressed out hair. Instantly detangled, hair is strengthened and nourished for a smooth, shiny and luminous result.

    Pack sizes - 250ml & 700ml





Starting off, this conditioner is packed with three oils namely : olive avocado and shea butter. Now these oils has great reputation of doing wonders to your hair, body and even the face. It is actually a very interesting concept that Garnier came with.

It is designed specifically for dry and damaged hair. I have dry ends and oily scalp, so i focus the product only in the ends of my hair avoiding the root which is what you are supposed to do with conditioners.

This conditioner leaves my hair so soft and manageable, it smells really good and i find that the smell of the conditioner overpowers the smell of my shampoo
And OMG it detangles my hair like heaven, if u have tangly hair then this is perfect for you!!
It doesn't weigh my hair down and I find that it leaves my hair shiny plus this product is cheap.

I find that as soon as I apply the product it starts to do the job instantly and you don't actually need to keep it on your hair for a very long time, so if you are in a rush, perf!!

The only con that I found is that it contains alcohol.

All in all this is a great conditioner, if you are looking for a cheap conditioner that does the job try this one.

REVIEW # :2FARMASI STAY MATTE FOUNDATION.

Hey Guys, what's up????
Here I'm back with another review, i don't why it took me so long to write about this product because i absolutely love it.
 Let me start by saying that I have combination to oily skin, yellow undertone and blemish prone skin.



I got mine in the shade 03. It comes in  squeeze out tube, convenient I must say since you still have control on the amount of product you are removing. 1 fl.oz(30ml) which typical of foundation. It has a very pleasant smell in my opinion.
At first I was a bit skeptical about it, I thought that it made me looked cakey, but when i wore it for the second time i was very happy with.

what it claims?

  • shine control- i totally agree, it gives a beautiful matte finish
  • long lasting- i agree but definitely not 24 hours, i would rather say 5-7 hours depending on your skin type or whether you use a primer or not.
  • full coverage- i wouldn't say that it is FULL COVERAGE, it does cover up most of your imperfections, but in my case i suffer from hyper pigmentation, I may not touch a pimple through its whole entire pimple life but it will leave a dark spot and it will take forever to go :(, so this foundation does not cover my dark spots completely but it does reduce the appearance of them which is good if you want to have a natural kind of look but with a good concealer your face will look flawless. Most importantly it covers dark circle very well.

It is a great foundation, good for all skin type(what it says), enriched with minerals. I received many compliments when i wore this foundation to my cousin's wedding.
I would definitely repurchase it.

ps: i usually do two layers of it to have the perfect look.

Eid Mubarak!!! :) !!!

Eid is officially here guys,
Eid mubarak May Allah brings us happiness, joy and peace.

For those who don't what eid is????
Eid is celebrated by the Muslim community all around the world that marks the end of Ramadan which is a very blessed month where people fast for 30 days, offer lots of salah(prayers) and recite the holy Quaran.

During the month of Ramadan we are not suppose to indulge in unnecessary actions like smoking, drinking and back biting, which ultimately should not be done even when we are not in the month of Ramadan, but in this month  Allah gives chance to find ourselves and it has been the turning point of so many people. Also it is the month of forgiveness, where Muslims seek forgiveness because Allah is the most forgiving and loves forgiveness.
During this holy and blessed month we have the night of laylat al-Qadr, it is the the night when the Quran was first revealed to Muhammad(SAW) from Allah.Muslims often pray extra prayers on this day, particularly the night prayer. They stay awake, pray, and hope God will give them anything they may desire on this night and recitation of the Quran also is done on this night.

On eid, men go to the mosque to offer the salat-ul eid and for women it is not necessary but "sunnah." we wear new clothes, bake some delicious cakes, visit our family and most importantly promoting love, peace and happiness. 


I wish that Allah gives us the chance to see and cherish the month of Ramadan next year also. It seriously feel sooo sad that Ramadan is already gone but for today Eid mubarak and don't forget to continue praying and remembering Allah even after Ramadan despite our busy schedule.

Review #1 : Yves Rocher Pure Calmille Gentle scrub with Bamboo Extract


Before we get started, please note that this is my very first review. So if there are some mistakes, kindly please ignore them, and if you have some suggestions please feel free to let me know.




The story behind….

I used to use my Bioderma exfoliating purifying gel for combination to oily skin, but I ran out of it so I needed a cheap alternative because the Bioderma was quite expensive, then I decided to buy the Yves rocher gentle scrub which is for all skin type.
Let’s see how it works…….

To be noted : I have combination to oily skin, it gets drier in the winter time.


Description at the back of the product:

This very fresh scrub with Bamboo grains gently cleanses impurities and eliminates dead cells.

Result: your skin is purified, clean and luminous.

Direction: apply once or twice a week on your damp face, avoiding the eye contour. Massage, then rinse thoroughly.

Packing

comes in a very nice tube, cute packaging I must say. Can easily take out the product.
It is also hygienic.
Tube: 75 ml; 2.5 fl.oz. ------- Enough products.




My experience:

This is a very gentle scrub as the name of the product states. The exfoliating beads are really gentle; it’s more of gel consistency. It is scented which might be a problem for people who do not like scented product but for me it’s not an issue.
I must say that this is a really good product, after using it my skin felt so soft and it gave my skin a nice glow. It leaves the skin feeling refreshed.
The best thing about this scrub is that, it is organic; it consists of purely natural ingredients.
Key botanicals are camomile extract, bamboo extract and cornflower water and there are no animal ingredients.
Also tested under dermatological supervision.

How I use it?

I use this scrub twice a week as recommended on damp face followed by a mask to close my pores.
Note: it is recommended to use a mask after exfoliating your face.

Pros:

  • Cheap, available at Yves rocher for £8.00.
  • Very gentle; great for people having sensitive skin, will not irritate the skin very much.
  • Organic; no harsh chemicals.
  • Do not need much product, a little bit goes a long way.
  • Leaves the skin feeling soft and glowy.
  • Has a fresh and invigorating fragrance.

Cons:

Couldn’t find any except that for some people the scent might be a problem.
Also it contains Sodium Laureth Sulfate which may dry out the skin but it is not that harsh on your skin, here it is rather mild.
I recommend moisturizing after use.

Final verdict

Well this great cheap alternative if you don’t want to spend a lot of money on expensive scrubs, it gets the job done. For people with less problematic skin, this would be perfect, as remember even if you have clear skin, it is important to exfoliate so as to remove the dead skin cells from your face.
It is a good scrub but not the best product.
Whether I will repurchase it?
About 70% sure, because I like to experiment with new products, so I might not end up repurchasing this.
