Shine up the nest

Its that special time of the year again when we love shopping for diyas, lights and all to brighten our homes. I am posting this snap again coz' its real close to my heart. Glitter up ur heart and enjoy festive season at ur best!!!

Skin needs this.....

I have come across loads of people recently who has dry scruffy scratchy skin & not just in winter but any season! Blame it on airconditioning or something else but here is a home made scrub replacing soap for body wash.............

1 Tbsp Green gram powder
1 tsp Kasturi Turmeric powder (ordinary haldi will do for starters)
1 tsp Tulsi powder
1 tsp Dried neem flowers powder (optional)

Mix and add enough water to make a paste for immediate use. I prefer this as face scrub as well as body scrub. It has done wonders. Do check if u have allergies for any of the ingredients. It has made a difference for quite a number of us.

I love avocado peels and the mashed leftover to give me a softer skin. The effects are instantly felt. Just apply on cleansed skin and wash off after few mins. Its a wow effect. I love them in salads as well as milk shakes.

this one 's a stunner!

Here is a jewellery set which has captured my heart. Its made of silver with gold polish and has a guarantee for the color & gem settings. I liked the way the pearls are studded. I have seen a lot of hand made ones but this is really good. I think I want to see how this one is done. I am not sure if only one person is involved in its making but right now I am crazy about it.
