If you're planning a move to Chicago like I did about 7 years ago, here are some tips to help make the transition easier. Believe me, I wish I knew a few of these before moving and I hope they can help you too! </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgS2nzv4CaFVIBE6Q-HRfBFi8_2-qw38MIbN2yjeM_hvZRdoLnVICQqCNhTQzFpHDeZ783defT82K-yjKw3EuRHhJ_bGyWXbAlf3Alv_fvch3ZlrHUK-u_ti0AsnHoaIiQA8M_Vtjo5S7jA5vpcni-0zmgyvKA-wEEf4olGY1rKpVabtrRbPj1klMOk/s1280/16805256_10154090456885947_371125657_o.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="960" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgS2nzv4CaFVIBE6Q-HRfBFi8_2-qw38MIbN2yjeM_hvZRdoLnVICQqCNhTQzFpHDeZ783defT82K-yjKw3EuRHhJ_bGyWXbAlf3Alv_fvch3ZlrHUK-u_ti0AsnHoaIiQA8M_Vtjo5S7jA5vpcni-0zmgyvKA-wEEf4olGY1rKpVabtrRbPj1klMOk/s320/16805256_10154090456885947_371125657_o.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><br /><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><p></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">1.</span><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Research the city: Before making the move, research the city to get a better understanding of its neighborhoods, culture, and lifestyle. Chicago is a diverse city with countless neighborhoods, each with their own vibe! That’s what makes the city extremely unique and always changing. There are always new and exciting things popping up everywhere so take advantage of that, even if it’s free admission days too!</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="border: none; display: inline-block; height: 579px; overflow: hidden; width: 576px;"><img height="579" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/2IzP4wlwuadVtNJTC82AenDnz8KnuZmeG6r_-sng3v-g45uBX6WXCk7eP2hSS-JRd974z4jlrfOECbDAxxDShJbnP-jbk6zxnisxJRwqr3rZnSAFA86M8I6X3gFV4pQvEp9cYLp6LZmG" style="margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" width="576" /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Image: JC Movers and Lumper Services</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">2.</span><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Find a place to live: Start looking for a place to live well in advance of your move. Consider factors such as proximity to work or school, safety, and cost of living when choosing a neighborhood. It’s also always a good idea to hire quality movers such as</span><a href="https://www.jcmovers.com/" style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; text-decoration-skip: none; text-decoration: underline; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> JC Movers and Lumper Services</span></a><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">!

You'll want to figure out where you need to go and what stops you need to take in order to get somewhere in a timely manner.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">4.</span><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Know the climate: Chicago experiences harsh winters and warm summers. Make sure to pack accordingly and be prepared for the weather changes. I know I was in for quite a shock about how brutal Chicago winters, especially the wind! They don’t call it the Windy City for nothing out here friends! </span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">5.</span><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Plan your budget: Make sure to have a budget in place before moving to Chicago. Consider the cost of living, rent, transportation, food, and other expenses when planning your budget. Living in a city is always super fun, but if you’re not careful you might end up spending more than you’re used to! There are always ‘free admission’ days to various exhibits, museums and more so be on the look out for when those become available and get there early because it will be crowded. Also, if you are taking Uber’s, you can always split the cost with a friend or people on the way to help cut cost. </span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">6.</span><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Be open-minded: Be open-minded and embrace the new experiences and cultural differences you'll encounter in your new city. There’s so much one can learn! If you meet a local in a new restaurant, ask them what their favorite local hang out spots are so you can become familiar with them. Talk to new coworkers or neighbors in your building to also see what are good areas to visit and not. This will help you not only make new friends quick but get to know where and why not to visit some of them.</span></p><br /><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: #353535; font-family: AppleSystemUIFont; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Making a move to a new city can be a bit overwhelming, but with these tips and a positive attitude, you'll be able to adjust to your new home in no time. The Windy City has a lot to offer, so embrace the change and make the most of your new life in Chicago. I can’t wait to hear what you are goin to see first!

Laura Mercier* is a brand that I was aware of and interested in since the pre-Instagram days - I remember reading my favorite bloggers blogs and them always raving about their tinted moisturizers and I always had it on my to buy and try list but I never got around to it - I would have to say it was also because five years back I hated the thought of putting any sort of coverage on my face (the under eye concealing was a wholllle another story though) haha - now that I'm in my late twenties - my face definitely needs some coverage! Lol<br />

<br />
<br />
I was very lucky to be sent these two cult classics by the Laura Mercier team - The Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer and the Laura Mercier Foundation Primer - and I have to say - I'm LOVING both these offering but I am a little more in love with the tinted moisturizer. The shade is a bit light for me but there's got to be some sort of shade adjusting magic in it because when I applied it all over my face - I wasn't left with any white cast - neither did I look like a pale vampire in the daylight! Lol<br />
<br />
You can definitely smell the SPF in this which isn't the great - but since I really adore everything else about this product - I'm willing to look past this. The Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer stays on all day (image proof down below) - looks super natural - gives a medium coverage that you can easily blend away with your fingers - no tools required unless you want to apply it with brushes and I find that I don't have to slather too much on so you will get your moneys worth when it comes to the number of applications you get outta this.<br />
<br />
Right after I applied the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer in the shade Nude - check out the super natural coverage! It felt super light! No editing - taken in front of a window.<br />

Just before I was about to take my makeup off for the day - a good 6 hours later! I had to reapply my concealer before going out and had to retouch my powder but the tinted moisturizer stayed on strong! Yay for that!<br />

Incase you can't tell - I'm in love and I think the next time you are in Sephora - try this out! You'll really enjoy it. While I am still not on board with applying foundation on my face everyday - this is something I've been reaching for and see myself doing so in the future too!<br />

Yikes! Has it really been a year since I wrote and published my last post on this blog? Unfortunately - yes. Somewhere over the past year my interest in blogging started dying - people were no longer reading actual blog posts and I found that more Instagram followers did not really translate into more readers for me blog - so I just stopped blogging here - there's no grand reason - it really is as simple as that. Over the past couple of weeks though - I find myself looking for reviews and not finding them - no one seems to be blogging and that makes me so sad. There was a time that I would never ever purchase anything before reading blog reviews and now all that exists are pretty picture on Instagram on the latest releases and the bare minimum in caption (I'm super guilty of this!) - so - here I am - trying to change that with my teeny tiny blog that somehow has a tiiiiiny number of regular visitors even with a year of no updates. To those that have still come back in the hopes of a new post - I'm sorry for all the times that you were disappointed - I'm determined to change that with multiple weekly posts.<br />

<br />
I'm Nayab - a Pakistani living in Chicago (two years ago I got married and moved here with my husband). I'm currently a housewife and gearing up to start my professional career here within the next two years (on a break due to logistical reasons) - I love love love eating out and trying out new food places with my husband which has made me gain a WHOLE LOTTTA WEIGHT since I've moved to the US - so I'm on a journey to lose that too! I used to be someone who couldn't cook or clean without throwing a tantrum back in Pakistan but I've learned to love doing that too!<br />

I know that I used to use their beauty steals a lot but no more - because now they're introduced something even better – a completely dedicated section within their app to make it that much easier. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></span><br />

It allows you to seamlessly book any beauty service around your location and at a time of your convenience at top salons and spas. The best part - you don't even have to book an appointment - it will do EVERYTHING for you! Even the payment and tips - so you don't have to worry about taking out cash etc. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></span><br />

I loved the concept and was very lucky to be given the opportunity to try it out - my experience was brilliant! I was sitting at home bored and looking at my nails that needed a lot of attention and decided to book an appointment using the app. From reviews to direction to busy times - the app has everything and the entire procedure of selecting and making an appointment to get my nails done literally took a couple of minutes - talk about ease. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">*warning - really bad 'before' shot of nails coming up - yikes! </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></span><br />

The best part about the experience was after my manicure I didn't have to worry about taking out my wallet and smudging my nails (I saw a few ladies do that) - since the GroupOn app had taken care of the payment and the tip I had selected earlier I literally got up and walked out. Talk about ease! </span><br />

Hey guys! In case you can't tell, or don't live where I do - FALL IS HERE! That means it's time for boots and scarves, Instagrams with fallen leaves and pumpkin spice lattes (not for me though - I hateeeee pumpkin spice lattes, ugh)<br />
<br />
My friend was visiting from Houston a few days back and we decided to go to an apple orchard near where I live and it was soo soo fun! This was my first time doing anything of the sort since activities like these really aren't done in Pakistan, and that's a shame because I had an amazing day and wished things like these were more popular back there. Families, couples, old couple, friends - everyone was enjoying the very strange but welcome warm weather in Chicago, munching on fresh baked donuts, slurping soft serves and getting lost in the corn mazes!<br />
<br />
I can't wait to go again in a few weeks time - there will be a haunted corn maze then - I'm already excited! Hope you guys enjoy some of my pictures from the day - until next time, tc!<br />

<b><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">*sponsored content</span></i></b></div>
<br />
Hey guys! Being a beauty enthusiast I try many brands but I'm always tempted more by budget friendly brands than any other - the reason is simple - if I love something, I want you guys to try and love it too, and that can be possible for the majority if the products are budget friendly.<br />
<br />
I recently came across <a href="https://www.mavenx.com/product/mJdYd2hYnx9QavPLp" target="_blank"><span style="color: #990000;">Measurable Difference</span></a>, a brand I hadn't heard of before - they are web based and have a ton of affordable stuff on their website! From liquid lipsticks, to illuminators to skincare and everything in between - there's something there for everyone, especially if you're on a budget.<br />
<br />
I was sent a few products which I wanted to share with you guys -<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: x-large;"><a href="https://www.mavenx.com/board/CyvbP9nY6etM5tAFs" target="_blank">Posh Matte Liquid Lipsticks in Edge & Opera - </a></span></b><br />
<br />
These are super long wearing and quite water resistant! I swatched these on my hand as soon as I got them (life of a beauty blogger haha) and they didn't come off even after I was done with dinner and dishes hours later! Loved that about these! Buy - <a href="https://www.mavenx.com/board/CyvbP9nY6etM5tAFs" target="_blank"><span style="color: #990000;">HERE!</span></a><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Oz_0h07fMgo/WdUOdDLQmHI/AAAAAAAAGNo/dKPM1CzyiaQCPUnkNdRi0JmPgjDkNDz9gCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_8947.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Oz_0h07fMgo/WdUOdDLQmHI/AAAAAAAAGNo/dKPM1CzyiaQCPUnkNdRi0JmPgjDkNDz9gCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_8947.JPG" /></a></div>
<br />
How gorgeous are these swatches! I'm in love <3 These are super reasonable priced at only $6 a piece - and you know what the best part is? Measurable Different offers free shipping on order above $20 - I hate it when companies keep their free shipping limit to $100 or more - if I'm looking to treat my self a little I'd rather order $20 products and get free shipping than spend extra money on shipping too!<br />

<br />
Another product that I got to try was their Sunkissed Bombshell Highlight, Bronzer and Blush Palette in Autumn - let's just say for $10 - you get your moneys worth and more. This palette is super versatile, not only have I used it for blush and bronzer - I've used this on my eyes too!

<br />
Here's a picture of me wearing both the liquid lipsticks (applied together) and the palette on my cheeks and eyes! If you've on the go and don't want to carry a ton of products - you'll be very pleased with this!<br />

Zoella Beauty At 25 years of age, I thought beauty products being put out by the super vlogger Zoe Sugg, or better known as Zoella would not be my cup of tea since I believed they were aimed for teens and pre-teens, but boy oh boy was I wrong! I think it's very safe to say that I'm in love with Zoella Beauty* products and how they make me smell like a macaron in the best non over whelming way possible!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eSbqxz1VAZ4/WbHIgUTcYgI/AAAAAAAAGLY/hs60HJjHWaYr76nCpVAiZWXWaiCVMBZJwCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_8283.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eSbqxz1VAZ4/WbHIgUTcYgI/AAAAAAAAGLY/hs60HJjHWaYr76nCpVAiZWXWaiCVMBZJwCLcBGAs/s640/IMG_8283.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
The macaron scented body cream really does pack a punch of moisture, absorbs into the skin quickly so you're not left rubbing it on and on and it doesn't leave you with a sticky feeling at all - it also works as the perfect base to pair the Zoella Sweet Inspirations fragrance body mist over. I'm in love with this fragrance. Being a body mist - it stays for a couple of hours before dissolving away but I don't mind spraying myself a couple of times during the day given how super affordable this is. With fragrance mists, a plastic bottle has always been the go-to - but not here - the Zoella fragrance mist comes in a stunning glass (yes, glass) bottle that anyone would be pleased to place on their vanity. It makes the perfect gift if you're on a budget! It's not too small, but dainty enough to fit into your bag for on the go touch ups. <br />
<br />
If you're like me and like sweet scents, but not those overly sickening ones, give the Zoella Beauty products a whirl - you will be pleasantly surprised - just like I was!<br />

Hey guys - Since it's still summer, that means I'm still half way in between over powdering my face and looking like my makeup has seen better days LOL. I was recently sent a selection of Pixi Beauty* stuff and I have to say, their mists have really impressed me. I got to try two of them and I honestly can't decide which one I like more!<br />
<br />
Before I get into individual reviews - let me just say, I love the packaging of these! There is absolutely no leakage and the actual spray is pretty damn good! It sprays out the perfect amount of moisture, not too much that you feel like your face is wet and not to little that you spray away half the bottle in one go!<br />
<br />
Also, I'm a fan of the pretty light green packaging!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now I'll be honest - I'm one of those people who when it gets super hot and humid, doesn't even want to put on sun screen, let alone a moisturizer! Really bad, I know, but just being honest. If you're like me then this is where the Pixi Beauty Hydrating Milky Mist comes into place - this is literally a moisturizer in a spray bottle. I spritzed this on, go about and apply my makeup and it stays on wonderfully the entire day. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I've used this in place of a moisturizer, with a moisturizer, on top of a moisturizer and after I've done my makeup - in all situations my skin is left looking and feeling hydrated and moisturized! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A definite recommendation from my side! </div>

<span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;"><b>Glow Mist - </b></span><br />
<br />
Given our obsession with *glow* these days, anyone and everyone just slaps on the word *glow* on their products and it will sell like hot cakes - but in my experience, not all products identified as *glow* inducing do what they're meant. I'm so happy to report this is not the case with the Glow Mist by Pixi Beauty.<br />
<br />
I love using this mist after I over powder my face (which is almost always) to make it look a lot more natural and less cake! This does a fabulous job at doesn't leave your skin feeling greasy or heavy. I also really enjoy using this as a makeup refresher on days when I've applied my makeup in the morning and haven't had time to touch up till late afternoons. I'm not exactly sure how this is achieved, but my makeup instantly looks refreshed, and not like it was applied hours and hours ago!<br />
<br />
Just remember to shake the bottle well before using it!<br />

Hey guys! I'm a big fan of makeup - as you might know - but my go-to make look is the one where it doesn't look like I'm wearing too much makeup - so I want people to know I've made an effort and I'm wearing makeup but I don't want my highlighter to be glowing from 20 miles away - does that make sense? I'm sure some of you can relate :)<br />
<br />
Here's the makeup break down for the look I did on Eid - super simple and quick - just how I like it. While I did this for Eid - this is a look that you can wear to so many occasions!<br />

<span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: large;"><b>PATCHOLOGY LIP RENEWAL FLASH PATCH</b></span><br />
<br />
Now I'll be honest, this is my very first lip mask - I've always done face masks and that's about it when it comes to masks. I thought lip masks were mostly gimmicky products used to gain shock factor followers on Instagram but I have been corrected - these are really good! My lips are always dry, I'm never without my Vaseline tin and adding these to my routine - applying one every other day - has made my lips just less dry feeling in general which is a definite improvement.<br />
<br />
Price - $50<br />

<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><b>ESTEE LAUDER ADVANCED NIGHT REPAIR KIT </b></span><br />
<br />
Holy moly - this is worth the price tag - let me just start of by saying that. This is super super expensive skincare and I would have never tried this myself had I not been sent it for free - but I have to say, I'm in love and I'm dreading when I'll have to purchase these again because I just can't see myself not using these anytime soon! All the hype surrounding the ANR is real, very very real people!<br />

<br />
Looking for a buttery smooth eye shadow palette on a budget? Try the KIKO one out. All you need to be careful about is a bit of extra fall out but when it comes to pigmentation, the color selection, staying power and blend ability - this gets a thumbs up from me!<br />

<br />
Lemme just start of first by saying how cute the packaging is! I love it - the color range is stunning and this is full coverage. The finish is a very demi matte one so where does this not work for me? It clings on to my dry patches :( no matter how hard I try to make it work - anywhere there is dryness on my face, this will cling to it! If you're an oily skin gal, this will be your ideal foundation - for dry skin girls - proceed with caution! *sent via Influenster<br />

Just seemed a bit too complicated - I mean how does a product that you wash of help you style your hair? I obviously was expecting something very different from what the Living Proof In-Shower Style actually offered.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tp95vxnxptY/WY35xSHPEbI/AAAAAAAAGIo/woOBKTzBgH8-30QiZhg4RjvuLVo86OOVACLcBGAs/s1600/living-proof-in-shower-styler-.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="426" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tp95vxnxptY/WY35xSHPEbI/AAAAAAAAGIo/woOBKTzBgH8-30QiZhg4RjvuLVo86OOVACLcBGAs/s640/living-proof-in-shower-styler-.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The <span style="color: #783f04; font-size: large;"><b>Living Proof In Shower Styler </b></span>is used after you've done the whole shampoo and condition routine, and your supposed to let it sit before rinsing it lightly. Now if you like me expected that this would leave your hair in some sort of professional blow dry look, you'll be disappointed. What this product actually does is take out the stress of styling your hair once you're out of the shower. I don't need to blow dry my hair at a certain angle anymore, all I do is use this and let it air dry. The end result is me being left with an enhanced version of what my hair really is. Softer, less frizzier, tamer and less inclined to poof up in humidity.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #783f04; font-size: large;">Is this a must buy? </span></b>Not all through out the year but for summer time, YES! My hair is so so difficult to manage with humidity and this helps quite a bit!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">*I was sent this mascara via Infleunster for testing purposes.</span></div>

<br />
Hey hey guys! I've been on a mascara roll recently - and the one that's intrigued my the most lately is Givenchys latest offering, the Givenchy Noir Interdit mascara. This is something that's unique and unlike anything else that I've ever tried before. I don't actually call it the Givenchy Noir Interdit mascara when talking about it lol, I just call it the Givenchy mascara with the broken wand, because that's exactly what it looks like and makes for quite an intriguing conversation.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GkD9cdkB_6M/WXAOE2CwOvI/AAAAAAAAGIE/5NYJBcq1Yr0-wnAT2lmT61NCbvxAM8rygCLcBGAs/s1600/givenchy-noir-interdit-mascara-review-.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GkD9cdkB_6M/WXAOE2CwOvI/AAAAAAAAGIE/5NYJBcq1Yr0-wnAT2lmT61NCbvxAM8rygCLcBGAs/s640/givenchy-noir-interdit-mascara-review-.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Coming on to the mascara - here's how I feel about it -<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: large;"><b>Is the wand a gimmick? </b></span><br />
<br />
The wand while unique, is not useless at all. Usually with gimmicky products, that's all they are, gimmicky, but this one serves it's purpose well.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: large;"><b>Can I use it like a normal mascara? </b></span><br />
<br />
The wand can be used like a regular mascara, or twisted at a 90 degree angle to ensure you reach all the lashes in the inner corner.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: large;">Do the plastic-y bristles hurt? </span></b><br />
<br />
The bristles on the mascara wand are only on one side, so the other side is basically completely bare which is very different but when it comes to the bristles, there's one thing I have to mention. They are kinda harder than your average mascara bristle meaning that if you're not careful they will hurt a bit so keep an eye out for that.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<b><span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: large;">Does the formula give volume or length? </span></b><br />
<br />
The formula itself is not thick, it hasn't dried out a bit in the almost 2 months that I've been using it. When it comes to how it performs, this lengthens my lashes wonderfully and if coated a few times, gives it ample volume too. If you're into lengthening luxury mascaras, then this is the one for you.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tWheq5vAqgc/WXAORGusiPI/AAAAAAAAGII/jxnNCwiT89oNkF9NecPwnn1VYauAyyYoQCEwYBhgL/s1600/givenchy-noir-interdit-mascara-new-.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1500" data-original-width="1000" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tWheq5vAqgc/WXAORGusiPI/AAAAAAAAGII/jxnNCwiT89oNkF9NecPwnn1VYauAyyYoQCEwYBhgL/s1600/givenchy-noir-interdit-mascara-new-.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<b><span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: large;">Is the 90 degree wand easy to use?</span></b><br />
<br />
I'll be honest, don't try this mascara out the first time you're heading out because you need a bit of practice to master it, but once you do, you'll be glad you can reach your inner corner lashes without stabbing your eye and all your lower lashes without making a mess!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: large;"><b>Do I recommend it?</b></span><br />
<br />
If you're in the market for a luxury mascara, I'd give this a go. If you're on a budget, skip this one.<br />
<br />
Price - $29<br />

Honestly, I tried posing for 10 minutes but the wind just wasn't stopping haha - so this is what you'll have work with - the lace detailing is super pretty and this top is perfect for when you wanna dress casually but don't wanna put too much effort - the perfect blend of casual and comfort.<br />
<br />
Now, onto the Greek fest - Imad was really excited for it but I wasn't - poor guy - he was super disappointed when the meat balls that he ordered turned out to be some takeaway ones from Subway! Haha - I ordered some fried donuts and those were much better but we decided to not order and waste more money at the Greek Festival and just head out for some burgers!<br />

This was my burger from Red Robin - it was sooooo good! The garlic parmesan fries were re-fillable so it was hard to resist not ordering them again! Haha<br />

Here's my annual Eid OOTD, if I'm not wrong, I've been doing this for about 5 years now and every year you guys seem to like them! For this Eid, I chose to wear a Mina Hassan outfit that I got made for my wedding. I've only worn it once since the wedding so it made more sense to wear it again instead of hoarding new clothes.<br />
<br />
So first off, a shot of the jewelry I wore. Ever since the wedding I haven't had a chance to wear my nicer jewelry so I took some out for Eid. The bangles are what I was gifted last Eid from my in-laws and I love them! I wore them with <a href="http://www.nayabloves.com/2016/09/eid-ul-azha-outfit-2016.html" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: large;">THIS (click here)</span></b></a> outfit as well) - Really wish I had painted my nails! Lol<br />
<br />

<br />
For Eid day, it was just me and Imad so we just chilled. I got up a bit early to do a bit of cooking, made Zarda, some Vermicilli (it was soo good) and a simple Karahi that me and Imad love eating!<br />
<br />
So on to the cooking - some pictures of what I made :) Unfortunately the Zarda wasn't really that great haha!<br />
<br />

This karahi is so super easy to make and you only need four ingredients! Let me know if you'd like me to do a recipe post for this :) It's a mixture between black pepper karahi and traditional karahi and super yum!<br />

Hey guys! Hope you've enjoyed 'fashion' week on my blog - today I'll be sharing with you guys a dress* that I've worn non stop since I got it - I didn't think I'd love it as much as I do, but I do! It's perfect for summer - light, airy and great to work on hot summer days when you don't want clothes sticking to you body!<br />
<br />
Annnnddd, before anyone thinks of leaving a comment on how I've gained weight bla bla, like most people do on my Instagram - please don't, thanks!<br />
<br />
You can check out the dress - <a href="http://us.shein.com/Vintage-Print-Cheongsam-Buckle-Trim-Shift-Dress-p-344978-cat-1727.html?utm_source=nayabloves.com&utm_medium=blogger&url_from=nayabloves" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;"><b>HERE!</b></span></a> It really is a BARGAIN for how much I've worn it!<br />

<br />
How amazing are these pockets that this dress has!? These super secret pockets have my heart - it's so great just putting some cards and cash in your pockets and just heading out the door - no handbag needed! I swear every dress should have secret pockets haha!<br />

A while back, I was contacted by one of the super famous online retailers that are all over Instagram these days, think Zaful, Romwe, SheIn etc - so I decided to test one of the online store myself with my money and review it honestly for you guys. If the experince was to go well, I'd say yes to accepting some samples from them and if it were to go negatively, then oh well - no free clothes for moi haha. So here's my shopping experience from SheIn - no sponsorships or free goodies involved, just me trying to find out whether all the Instagram hype is real or not.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Wyt8DF_3Jxs/WUmn7lQY3NI/AAAAAAAAGFU/V93QmZdFx_0VXLq4h1-sbWfPEqtfWv-QgCLcBGAs/s1600/she%2Bin%2Bshopping%2Bexperience%2B.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1333" data-original-width="1001" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Wyt8DF_3Jxs/WUmn7lQY3NI/AAAAAAAAGFU/V93QmZdFx_0VXLq4h1-sbWfPEqtfWv-QgCLcBGAs/s1600/she%2Bin%2Bshopping%2Bexperience%2B.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;"><b><i>How long did it take the order to arrive?</i></b></span><br />
<br />
So, the total time it took for my order to reach me was about 15 days, which is a lot longer than what it was supposed to be. I emailed the customer service and I have to give props, they replied within 12 hours and apologized and I had my package with me within a few days.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;"><b><i>Was the material what you expected?</i></b></span><br />
<br />
The product itself was a bit different in material than I had expected. Where I was expecting something cotton-y or linen-y it was mostly polyester which at first I didn't like but now I have no issues wearing.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bC099LZL-Ok/WUmmyZ46tlI/AAAAAAAAGFI/-SjO0pHn0gsN5BgEqU5LU-ybPzmNOeitQCLcBGAs/s1600/14731248992292928713.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1202" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bC099LZL-Ok/WUmmyZ46tlI/AAAAAAAAGFI/-SjO0pHn0gsN5BgEqU5LU-ybPzmNOeitQCLcBGAs/s1600/14731248992292928713.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;"><i>Was the design/color what it was shown to be on the website?</i> </span></b><br />
<br />
When it comes to color, getting what you ordered and all of that - my blouse was exactly what I ordered so there were no discrepencies in that area.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;"><i>Was the fit okay?</i></span></b><br />
<br />
The fit was the biggest concern when I was ordering and due to some tips and tricks (click HERE to read them) I nailed the producer of ordering something that fit me perfectly. I cannot stress enough how important it is to look at the measurements they've given and focus on those - irregardless of whether you're a S/M/L you need to match your measurement.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: x-large;"><b><u>Final Thoughts</u></b></span><br />
<br />
Basically, apart from the slow shipping at first, and my confusion about the material I've really had an amazing experience - there was no shady business going on and I would defiantly order again, taking in precautions like checking the material.<br />

I hope you're enjoying my wedding series so far - today's post is going to be all about my Walima outfit. I <u><b><span style="color: #b45f06;">loved, loved, lovedddd</span></b> </u>my Barat outfit a ton but there was just something super special about my Walima outfit that made me love it just a bit more than my Barat outfit lol. I feel like this is a great outfit if you want to be a traditional Walima bride because I know these days it's all about silver-y outfits for the Walima function.<br />
<br />
I have never actually thought the color orange would be something I'd opt for but when we (me, Imad's mom and cousin) were at the shop and were looking around for a contrasting dupatta for the off-white base - I spotted this wonderful mustard-y orange one and all of us loved it at first glance! It's <span style="color: #b45f06;"><b><u>so super pretty </u></b></span>and I can't wait to wear this outfit (separate, of course) at different events.<br />
<br />

<br />
I lost a ton of weight before my wedding and it just for some reason didn't show with my Barat outfit but I was super happy because my hard work did show in this outfit haha. Don't you guys love the color combination? I'm in love with it till now (and probably forever haha)<br />

Just a close up to show you guys the details :)<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #b45f06; font-size: large;">Where You Can Get This Outfit - </span></b><br />
<br />
I can't remember the name of the exact shop but if you're in Islamabad, go to F-7 where OPTP is - there are a couple of bridal boutiques there go to the first one on the right in the basement :) We matched the dupatta ourselves and made change to the design, embroidery etc so you won't get the same outfit but I'm sure you'll be able to customize what you want according to your tastes there!<br />
<br />
Hope you guys enjoy this post, coming up next are my makeup reviews for the wedding!<br />

My wedding dress post has been a super duper long awaited post, so I hope you guys enjoy it! We'll kick things off with the Barat outfit and then move onto the Walima one.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000;">So first off, this wasn't actually my Barat outfit </span></b>- I had a separate outfit made, loved it and was all set to wear it until my mom opened one of her decade old suitcases and found a Barat outfit that she had made for her wedding but never got to wear because her father-in-law died and the event had to be sobered down. She went with another outfit and this remained locked away in a suitcase unworn and untouched until now!<br />
<br />
When we saw this lehenga, me and my mom knew that I just had to wear this on my Barat instead of the other one. All it needed was a bit of fitting and we were good to go!<br />
<br />
The good thing was that my actual bridal outfit (that I did not wear) was not that heavy so it was easily used as a post-wedding kurta, with the dupatta paired off with another outfit and same with the lehenga. This way, we utilized both dresses and nothing was wasted!<br />

How regal does the lehenga look? The work is super old zamanay ka and very very traditional.<br />

<br />
For my jewelry, I wore two sets. One that my mom gave me from her wedding and the other one that Imads family gave to me on my Nikkah. Both pieces have a lot of history so I think they went well with my dress as well. <br />

<br />
My shoes were the same heels that I wore on my Nikkah - I really don't wear heels so I just bought one pair that I then paired with all my wedding functions haha!<br />

I hope you guys enjoyed this post and it was well-worth the wait for you. Before I wrap this post up, I just wanted to say - don't spend too much on your wedding outfit, you really only wear it once. The outfit that I ended up wearing was basically one that I got for free, but the one that I had gotten made was super inexpensive as well (think under the PKR 80,000 mark) - weddings are such an expensive affair, it makes no sense to invest in clothes - invest in relationships and your marriage more :) </div>
