Its Just Life Vol. 2 – One-month already?

Swathy · December 19, 2013 · 10 Comments

How can life be so cruel to me? I have forever thought that being married would be a totally different experience and here I am often forgetting that I am married! When people say your husband, I look at them blankly!!
Going to any party or function feels like I have landed back in time when I used to accompany my parents to a place full of unknown people and I was always so awkward! The only difference is now its minus parents. In fact, my married life feels like a live-in with a friend with parental consent 😀
And, here I am with one month already over!! Gosh, how did I even land up here and especially since last 20 days have so trying on me with me being lifted and thrown into some other dimension of the universe. I have to concede here that now I understand why girls should be married off early. Being used to staying alone does complicate the situations further.
Nah, if you are thinking something major unhappy events have occurred, nothing of the sort. Only that I have been thrown in a phase of perpetual confusion where I am totally wandering down in a storm. My friends are all saying that I am thinking too much and I should only enjoy the moment. 
But, I am somehow not able to achieve that euphoria associated with new brides. Its like I am just waiting for something to happen and then I will be happy but happiness never really comes that way!! You have to be happy no matter what and then wait for the better to happen, right?  
Is any of you going through the same phase as mine? Can you relate to my confusions? Any advise would be welcome 🙂

Hiya, I am back!!

Swathy · December 3, 2013 · 8 Comments

Ok, I was back on Saturday itself but a long unwinding on Sunday and back to work from Monday is really taking a toll on me!! Anyways, I have lots of juicy gossip and a special one to start the entire wedding story with. 
How was it you would ask? Well, there were lots of smiles and cries and few frowns, all in one. But, all in all, everything went well. Yes, I am trying to settle down right now so there are a few hiccups. 
Tomorrow is the 16th day function which officially marks the end of wedding celebrations. What happens tomorrow is something I will explain in detail. Ok, typing with all the chooda in the arms is damn difficult. Good that I did not try it before today! 

Btw, tomorrow I am getting rid of the chooda. Don’t get me wrong, I love them. Everyone loved them, in fact, just for the fact that the chooda was so different here and gives the perfect bride-sy look. But, they got so heavy and I think I got the smaller size so I could wear only half of my chooda. Will narrate the story later. In short, I am not able to do any regular works with them on my hands and worse still I can not reach my back to clean it 😀

Biotique Bio Clove Purifying Anti-blemish Face Pack for oily & acne prone skin {Product Review}

Swathy · November 15, 2013 · 8 Comments

Biotique Bio Clove Purifying Anti-blemish Face Pack for oily & acne prone skin Product Review
I have always voted up for Biotique face packs and this one is no different. I love the color and the texture of the product. Its a bit grainy and goes smoothly over damp skin as all other face packs do. Btw, do you remember the tip that anything gets absorbed better on damp skin – moisturizer, serums or face packs!

Pros
leaves the skin smooth and a bit radiant
does help with tan and blemishes but only just so
suits dry skin as well in summers
can not find any con per se

The mask takes a good 15-20 minutes to dry off if you have applied a thick layer. Removing the mask is not really easy just like other masks but using a wash cloth made it little better. Also, make sure that the wash cloth is soft enough otherwise you can end up harming your skin.

After removal, one can see a little brightening of the face. Over the course of time if you use it, it helps with blemishes but it does help with tan. Also, the mask can be used daily as well but in such a case, the mask should be kept till it is just dry and washed off so that you do not have to scrub it off the face. Everyday scrubbing is not good!

Ingredient List

Also, whether it helps with acne or oily skin is something I can not comment on but yes it does suit dry skin unless you are using in winters which I did not do so I have no idea how it fares in dry weather. But, overall, I would say it is worth a try and easily available.
Price: Rs 199 for 85 gms
