Do you mind disclosing your age? {Your Opinion}

Swathy · October 18, 2012 · 14 Comments

So, yup, fun time!!! Yay…I am touching one of the touche topics of our gender 😀 So, what do you think? You mind if someone asks you your age? Do you prefer to hide it? Or, do you glory in your age and feel proud of it, irrespective of your status in life (meaning marriage and pregnancy and kids, etc.)? 
For me, I do not really mind disclosing my age. But, then, I am 26 and if I say that, people do often think why am I not married yet. I don’t like people thinking about that otherwise I totally love it. I do feel sometimes I would love to be married but then I can’t marry just anyone.

Otherwise, I think I glory in my age. I feel more confident of myself, my body, my mind, the way I think, everything!!! In fact, do you know that if not your face or dressing sense, the way you carry yourself, your confidence gives away your age and sometimes you might just appear a little older according to your maturity. 
In that way, you might think its always better to be more immature. Yes, its really good to be a kid at heart. It not only keeps the passion for life alive in you, it also keeps you healthy. But, make sure your intellect doesn’t remain childish. That’s not exactly an attractive trait!
So, do you appear your age? Or, are you more mature for your age?

jojoba beads provide mild exfoliation

My Experience

Vivel Active Essentials face wash at Perfect Skin Care for you

The product is a beautiful pearly blue in color with blue jojoba beads for exfoliation. The beads are not harsh on the skin but for me, the exfoliation wasn’t enough. It doesn’t help with the blackheads. The product last quite long, little being enough for every time. It lathers quite well and cleanses really well.

The face does look a bit brighter after using it. But, I do feel my skin is getting dry so probably it will suit only oily skin people and not dry. As I said earlier, my skin gets dry as the climate gets cooler, a drying face wash doesn’t exactly help!! I love the color of the product, the pale blue.
So, did you use it? Do share what you think about it!
PS: Product sent by brand.

Aromatherapy to control Mood Swings {Health}

Swathy · October 16, 2012 · 20 Comments

aromatherapy diffuser at Perfect Skin Care for you

So, few days back, I was having my share of mood swings and wasn’t feeling up to the mark. So, I thought of using the diffuser I got some time back. I have been using the diffuser for quite sometime and let me tell you, its one of the most amazing things I have ever used.

Since I wasn’t feeling too good, I decided to get a bit of aromatherapy. And, the results were damn great (read AWESOME-ST). Its one of the best ways to get your mood better immediately and even if not better, calmer, at least, and it also relieves anxiety.

I love essential oils. I haven’t used fragrance oils yet. I prefer essential oils because they are multi-purpose and last longer (I guess that applies to fragrance oils as well). I have used Patchouli, Cedarwood, Neroli in my aromatherapy. Totally loving Patchouli right now.

Well, let me share other advantages. Your room looks cozy (diffusers and tea light candle add to the home decor), the essential oils act as natural room fresheners, the essential oils are also great as natural insect repellants. Lemongrass, Cedarwood and Citronella are amazing for that purpose.

Next time you feel low, you know what to do? So, don’t forget this natural remedy to relieve anxiety and feel refreshed and take care 🙂 And, don’t forget to switch off the lights!!
