Basic Skin Care

To keep your face looking youthful always, you need proper skin care. I will share with you on how to properly cleanse, exfoliate and moisturise your skin, while I'm trying this which seems to be working for me at the moment, so I decided to share.
Step 1:- Cleansing*Find a good cleanser that your skin responds well to and stick to it. Most times bar soaps tend to dry out the skin. For oily skin like mine, I use 'Clean and Clear Cleanser' ; but not often so you won't over-clean your face. Only wash your face at night to remove make-up and sunscreen that can clog pores; remove eye make-up with olive oil as a natural eye make-up remover. In the morning, a splash of lukewarm water helps remove excess oils from your nightly moisturisers.
Never wash your face with hot or cold water.
Step 2:-Exfoliate *People usually skip this but if you start properly to exfoliate your skin, you will notice an almost immediate difference. Get a facial scrub that suits your skin with a wash cloth for quick rinse.
Toners are meant to remove all remaining traces of oil, make-up and dirt but a good will do this for you. Check here,
Step 3:- Moisturise*Your skin should tell you when you need to moisturise; like when your skin is tight; be careful not to over-moisturise as it can clog pores. You can use extra virgin coconut oil or virgin oil.
Step 4:- Apply Sunscreen* Sun damage causes wrinkles, so its vital to use a sunscreen of at least 15-30SPF; maybe get a moisturiser for night and day that includes UV protection. Don't use moisturises with sunscreen at night so it doesn't aggravate skin. Make sure it contains Mexonyl or Heliophex as usually found in Neutrogena Products.

Happy Exfoliating

Step out in Faith

Step out in Faith ♥ 2kings7:3
You can only succeed in life when you are willing to take risks. Though sometimes you've got to play cool but after praying and studying the word,you need to step out in FAITH. Eccl 10:8-9 ,when you try to avoid falls,bites,pains,dangers,injuries,etc you miss out on life's opportunities. To walk by faith you have to;
1. Accept worthwhile risks-go out on a limb because that's where the fruit is.
2. Prepare wisely for your risks-God rewards excellence,sharpen your blade
Thats the value of wisdom,helps you succeed Eccl 10:10.

Happy Sunday&Happy Faithful Week.

Short Romper

   Once in a while, you might just want to appear simple or a bit.more casual, I opted for this short jumpsuits with a black blazer to make me feel more comfortable to go out. A little bit natural make-up helped with a burgundy bag and pink sandals and I'm good to go. Remember, I did a post before on how to wear a romper,still check.

Beauty D.I.Y : Brown Sugar Face Scrub

I found this while surfing the net so I decided to share with you. Its actually nice when you can whip up your own sweet face scrub at home, with ingredients you already have, instead of running to the drug-store next time you run out of face wash; maybe you could just try this:

Ingredients:
3 tbsp. brown sugar
3 tbsp. olive oil
1-2 tbsp. honey 

Directions:
Combine brown sugar and olive oil. Add 1 tbsp of honey and continue to add more until you get a desired consistency (should be gooey but still workable). Apply to face, scrubbing gently, and rinse thoroughly.

 Please do let me if it worked when you try it, thanks.

Beauty Tip: Light Exfoliator

Use Oil On Your Skin.. Even If It's Already Oily.......Wow!
This probably sounds crazy, but using an oil-based product to remove make-up or excess dirt from your skin can actually improve your epidermis' condition. Why?  Over-cleaning stimulates the sebum glands, which causes skin to over-produce oil. Using oil-based products will have the opposite effect. Instead You Can Use Exfoliator Daily.  Exfoliating is an important and easy way to remove the dead skin cells that cover up your skin's natural glow, leaving your skin radiant and smooth. Trying to use a light exfoliator daily, it will help to freshen your face daily.
       For exfoliating products, select exfoliating cleansers that contain sea salt, sugar, ground almonds, walnuts, seeds or other grainy components.  Though exfoliating once or twice a week is usually enough to achieve silky skin; however, women with oil skin should exfoliate more often than those with dry skin but if your skin becomes excessively dry or irritated after exfoliation, don't scrub so hard; cut back on how often you exfoliate, and explore the possibility that you may be allergic to the product you used.

Have a nice Exfoliating Day.

Little Ankara

Trying out something different, it rained heavily, thought I wouldn't be able to attend service this morning. After a while it stopped but then I lost interest on my outfit. But then I remembered this ankara material haven't worn it in a while especially because it has an ankara made jacket.

 
 

        I decided to pair it with a white shirt and a red wedge adding a red clutch to it.
 

What I Wore

Skirt~ Bought in a store

Skirt~ Tailored

Purse~ Mark&Spencer(Old Here)

Wedge~ Rouge
