Favorite Body Sprays !

Hello Beauties !

We are in the middle of the summer , i thought to myself everyone wants to smell nice and fresh , why not write a post to review 3 body sprays from 3 different companies .

The products that i'll be reviewing are :

- Victoria secret's Coconut and Vanilla spray ( from the old collection)
- The body shop's Indian Jasmine
- Bath and body work's Sweet peach


We all know that Victoria Secret's range is very diversified ,i opted for coconut vanilla and freesia and i love both of them
.. what i love most is that the scent is not fake nor artificial ,it's indulging and yummi :D , what i noticed is that the scent is long lasting especially with stronger ones like vanilla . I use both of them alternatively , i use the freesia one all year around and the coconut vanilla during winter time since it's a bit concentrated.

My second favorite is the Body Shop's indian jasmine , it's a recent discovery and i'm in love ! The scent is not strong nor subtle it offers the right intensity , the best part is that these sprays are true to their name they smell so good , the only downside is that they're not as long lasting as the victoria secret's ones.

The last favorite is the bath and body work's "pretty as a peach" , i don't think that it can compete with the previous ones , as it is not long lasting and the scents tend to be a little bit artificial, but still it's a descent budget friendly body spray.

Well as you can tell my top favorites are the victoria secrets' and the body shop's , i highly recommend them , however if you're on a budget give the bath and body work's one a try , you might like it :) .

Review : L'oreal Liss Keratin Extreme /Shampoo and Oil replacement

Hello beauties & Ramadan Kareem !


Today's post is going to be a little bit different ,i'm reviewing a hair product as you can tell from the title .

Now with hair care i'm very careful and i tend to stay away from products that may dry out my hair , which is exactly what happened to me while using this product !

I had high hopes for it , in fact one of my friends recommended it and i thought to myself why not . Even though i have a bad history with all L'Oreal shampoos , it's either they dry the heck out of my hair and they leave it lifeless and straw-like or they cause dandruff :/



And guess what i ended up adding this product to my long bad history with L'oreal Shampoos , I used it twice just to make sure that this is not the right product for me .

It dried out my hair so badly , that it was so hard for me to detangle it  , there was no added value , no moisture , no shininess,no smoothness .

Bottom line , if you don't have oily hair stay away from this product .It'll dry out your hair so badly , the oil replacement is full of chemicals too it dried out my ends .

It took me a lot of homemade masks and lot of care to take my hair back to its previous state .
On a brighter note, what i would highly recommend if you want to bring moisture back to your hair and make it smooth and shiny is the Dessange extreme 3 huiles , for me this is the best shampoo and conditioner of all time :)

There we go , i hope this post was useful !


Have a Magical day  xoxo ;)

Spring time Skincare routine ! Dry/Combo skin 🌺


Hello Beauties 🌺!

Today's post is about the products i use when the weather gets warmer , i try to keep it as simple and affordable as possible :) !

I have dry skin during winter , when it gets warmer it becomes dry/combo which means that on my cheeks and forehead i'm dry but on my nose and chin i'm oily . I've struggles during the past years to find the right products for each time of the year until i settled on these products .I've already reviewed in previous posts most of the products so i'm only going to review the new ones.



My holy grail face wash that i use both in the morning and at night is the Aloe Vera foam face wash for sensitive skin . It is quite affordable it lasts for a long time and it's very gentle on the skin which always a plus if you have sensitive skin ! I use it along with the day moisturizer which is divine , very light but at the same time moisturizing  .
To remove my make up i use the Garnier micellar water which replaced my Bioderma , but i'm very happy with it ,i can't see any difference and it's way cheaper which is always a good thing . It takes off my face makeup and my eye makeup without any struggles . I highly recommend it !

Now at night time before i apply my face oil , which is organic sweet almond oil , i apply a face serum that is the Lierac Hydra-Chrono Serum which is supposed to quench the thirst of very dry skin , and a i love it , the smell is amazing , it absorbs quickly and in the next morning i can tell that my skin is plumped and hydrated.


Last but not least are face masks , which is something new to me i used to skip this step , but now i'm hooked i've been using sheet masks from Korean brands and they're just divine , this one in particular is very hydrating and it has rose petals in it which is quite luxurious , my skin feels amazing after applying it .

The last product is a mask/scrub from Freeman it's a black sugar and charcoal combination , i only use it once a week on my T zone , it does a great job in smoothing the area , i don't apply it all over my face it can be drying and or people with very sensitive skin it can be quite rough since it has sugar in it .


That is all for my current skincare routing , i like to keep it very simple and efficient at the same time . Of course none of these products would be enough if i don't protect my skin from sun with SPF , i use the Uriage bariésun which is perfect ,it does not make my skin dry nor oily !


Hope you find this post helpful if you have similar skin type as mine .

Have a happy day !
