Homemade face mask

Hey people!

It's been like half a year since I've posted my first post. I can't even tell you why I haven't posted the second sooner. I think I just forgot about it. I've been spending my time lazying around (and studying for my exams). So, I'm just gonna post something today.

I've decided to write about a DIY face/body mask that you can make at home. I'm pretty sure almost everyone has theese ingredients at home, and if not they're very cheap, so you're gonna save money with this mask.

This last spring I used to spend my nights researching which edible/drinkable products have the best benefits for our skin. Honestly, I think I spent hours just reading everything, amazed with all the stuff people do to clean their face properly. So, I came up with a mask of my own (or not, there are probably people who are already making it).

The mask consists of yogurt, powdered chocolate, cocoa, coffee grounds and turmeric. Lately, I've started adding cinnamon every couple of days. And I make this mask every day. Leave it on for like 20 mins and then wash it off. And, as you may already know, turmeric may leave yellowish stains on your skin, but don't be scared. It's completely washable. You can either wash your face with your favourite face wash or cleanser or just leave it as it is. But honestly, it all depends how much turmeric you add and how long you keep the mask on your face before washing it.

I've written this post and saved it as a draft a long time ago and now I have to say that I've long since stopped making this mask. Now I don't really use any, or if I do I only use this one mask that I'm someday gonna write about.

But I have to tell you guys that you really have to take care of your skin if you want it to be beautiful and shiny. It's gonna take a long time for your skin to clear up from bumps and pimples, and maybe it won't ever be completely clean but don't let it stop you from caring about it. It took me a very long time to feel comfortable with how my skin looks and to stop caring whether I have any make-up on or not. Just let your skin rest. Let it be natural. Everyone is beautiful in their own way. And remember that famous saying: "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder."

How are you?

Hello my dear people.

Here I am with my excuses why I haven't posted anything in a while, but I'm just not motivated enough to write anything. And honestly, I can't write when I want, but when the inspiration strikes. And, let me tell you now, it does not strike me very often.

As you can see from the title, this blog post isn't a review of anything at all. It's just me coming here asking all of you how you are. How do you feel? Are you exhausted from school, working, lazying around (like me)? Are you happy or sad? Think a bit about your emotions. Turn on some music. And if you're home alone, turn the volume on the max and have that concert, dancing around the room and jumping around. Yell out lyrics so even your neigbours can hear you. Honestly, I can say this is one of my favourite activities to do when I'm home alone.

i'm here to tell you that lazying around can be good too. For example, last night I had this plan to write my CV and motivational letter, that I plan to send out to several people/companies, because I'm unemployed, obviously. But then, once it got dark outside I was in this good mood, and I just wanted to watch a movie. And what better movie to watch than a cute young adult romance, aka To All The Boys: Ps. I Still Love You. I'm not gonna write anything about the movie here, other that I was in the mood to watch it. I don't want this post to turn into a review. So, I'm telling you, the person reading this, whoever you may be, go and relax. Your mind and body will appreciate it. I'm just gonna leave you the link to the song from the movie here (MARINA - About love), so go and listen to it even if you don't want to watch the movie.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!! Make this day about yourselves and not about anyone else. You deserve it It doesn't matter if you're in a relationship or single, make this day just about you and just LOVE YOURSELF. Today and every day.
