Simple ways to have a better lifestyle.

Hello Everyone! So yeah,again, it has been a while since I blogged. I'm sorry. I'm trying my best to post as frequently as possible. So today, I am going to talk about something different. Something that's not only going to make you look or feel better but also live better. In this busy world, we all working do damn hard to get what we want and adapt to unhealthy habits in the process which is going to affect us in the long run. It is always good to live a healthy life whilst doing what you love to lead a better life. Life can never be perfect but trust, it can always be better. It might seem hard at times and you feel like giving up, but the reality is not even half as  hard as what you expected. Hard times don't last forever and time heals everything and life keeps getting better and better day by day. You can adapt to simple habits in your everyday life that are going to drastically change the way you feel about yourself, life and also help you in the long run. I cannot guarantee you that is is going to completely change your life but trust me, it will make it better and it keeps getting better. It all completely depends on the way you see it. Which leads to to the first topic I want to talk about.

1. Positive Attitude.
 You must always have a positive attitude towards life. If you think negative, everything and everyone around you will look and feel negative and you won't really enjoy life. If you want to live life happy, spend every minute enjoying it no matter how hard the situation is and how impossible life might seem at times, it never is that bad. How hard can it be? There is always a solution to everything. It is better to face your fears than running away and then realizing that it wasn't even worth running away. Trying to find a solution no matter what the situation is a good spirit and the first step of having positive attitude towards life. Trying to procrastinate or running away is definitely going to be hard for you in the future and make you think more negative and negative and then you don't really feel like it. You start to feel uncomfortable in most situations and sooner or later you become habituated to running away and every little hurdle of life seems like a big problem. So whatever comes in the way, accept it with a smile and think about how to face it rather than not doing anything about it and then regretting. 

2. Live More, Phone less.
 Most of us, well all of us are constantly looking down- looking at our phones these days. I admit being a blogger I do that too but it is not very good for you. It's not good for your spine and for your personal life. It is good to take some time off from social network and get disconnected from the world once in a while and really live your life. Live some moments without clicking and posting. You don't have to post everything on social media. The less you are posting, the more you are living. And the more you live, the better life you have offine than you display it on social media. I'm not saying to not use social media. I'm just saying not to get addicted to them. It also disturbs your sleep if you are continuously on your phone or laptop during bed time. So try to use less in the evening and also do not look at your phone as soon as you wake up. Trust me you will feel a lot better once you start living a real life and makes your whole day awesome.

3. Waking up Early.
 I know work and pressure can get a bit too much that you sacrifice your sleep. No one gets enough sleep these days but it is very important to get to sleep early. Sleep time is when your body is healing and rejuvenating. Everything is getting during sleep. So always get enough sleep. Sleep for at least 7 hours and wake up early. Waking up early really makes a difference. Rather than getting up late and feeling tired and grumpy the whole day, get up early and take a shower immediately to feel fresh. By waking up early there are so many things you can do. Instead of looking at your phones, go and have a look out of the window. Spend some time thinking about what you want to do for the day and make a to-do list and it is not necessary that you have to do everything from your to-do list. Also make realistic to-do lists. And freshen up your mind and get ready for the day with a smile. Every morning be thankful that you have a bed to sleep on and smile and continue the day.

4. Having a good nutritious breakfast.
 It is important to eat breakfast. Most people skip this but it is very essential. Early waking as mentioned above will leave you enough time to make some breakfast or try to make something at least the night before and have a good and filling breakfast. It is the most important meal of the day so try to eat something healthy to keep you going throughout the day. It is like a fuel to your body because you are eating after a very long time and your body needs something to work and function. So never ever skip breakfast. You ca even have something as a smoothie which is thick and filling. You can even make it the night before and keep it in the refrigerator and take with you and drink it on the go. But make sure you are having something. 

5. Exercise.
 Getting some exercise is very god for you. It improves your health physically and mentally and keeps you fit. Regular exercise is essential and will benefit you in the long run. It keeps you in positive mood. You can do things as simple as going for a walk early in the morning or in the evening when it gets a bit dark. You can take you a dog for a walk or walk with your brother/sister/partner/friends. It will really effect your mood. Or if you are trying to get more fit then you can also go for jogs and do some stretches. You can find easy workout videos online and do them. Really quick and easy workouts. If you want to go hardcore the you can join a gym and do heavy workout 5/6 times a week. But getting some form of exercise is very important. You can either workout in the morning or evening or both depending on your comfort and schedule. 

6.Get ready for the day.
 So once you're done with your workout, get ready for the day. Start by taking a warm shower. Wash your hair if you feel like Wear your favorite pair of clothes or if you are feeling fancy, wear a dress. Wear some makeup if you like to and do your hair all pretty. Hair makes all the difference, even if you do not wear any makeup, a good hair day can save the day. So if you are not into makeup then spend some time styling your hair. Wear comfortable yet pretty looking shoes and lastly finish off by spritzing perfume. And go out and start making your dreams come true. :D 

7. See the good in everything.
 At by the end of the day, make sure you are always positive and see the good in everything. It is okay to have a bad day. But always remember that everything happens for a reason. Do not let yourself down for anything and always have faith in yourself. Surround yourself with more positive people and always do what you love. If you're having a bad day, remember that it won't last for long. Always remember to the see the good in everything and appreciate everything and avoid negativity. This will help you have positive impact on life. It will change the way you think, you will be less judgmental and start loving your life and others life. Learn to appreciate others without questioning yourself and never compare yourself with others. Then, you will live a very happy and positive life.

Review: Lakme Absolute Skin Mattreal Mousse

Hey Guys.

So I know it has been quite a while since I have blogged. I just have been very busy with life. :P
I still am trying to spend at least 10 hours a week on blogger but because of my busy lifestyle I somehow fail. :p
But, I still am trying and will try to post as frequent as possible.

So, Today I am going to be reviewing a product. It is the Lakme Absolute Skin Mattreal Mousse. I have been using for a really long time and no I think I can review it perfectly :D





Product Description:
Lakme Absolute
Lasts upto 16 hours. Feather light texture. SPF 8.
Mattreal Skin Natural Mousse.

Feather light texture with a mousse to powder finish for breathable natural skin.

Price: Rs 725/- for 25 grams.

Shell life: 24 Months.


So, I have used one whole pot of this and this has worked quite decent. It has a very light to medium coverage. So, If you have a serious issue of acne, then you must use a concealer. However, for everyday use, it is perfect. It is very light and feels like there is nothing on your face. It evens out the skin and gives it a very flawless finish.

It claims to last for 16 hours. That is not true. It will stay on your skin for 16 hours sure, but makeup fades and oxidizes. I have very oily skin and it is very humid in the place I live, So mine oxidizes almost immediately, depending on how humid it is.  It has a citrus fragrance just like every Lakme product, and I personally have no problems with their fragrance. This fragrance also doesn't last long. If fades as soon as you apply it to you skin and is completely gone by the time you blend, which take absolutely no time at all.

It is perfect for oily to combination skin types. If you have dry skin, then avoid this. You can definitely use it but you have to moisturize your skin loads. I have used this every single day. It is very light, and makes your skin soft. It has a useless SPF of 8. I don't know why it does, but I wear a sunscreen prior to my makeup, with a higher SPF because I spend a lot of time in the sun, so I have to make sure that my skin stays protected.

Since my skin is like butter greasy, I set it with some powder, but you don't have to do it if your skin is normal. It is a cream formula which sets into a powder. 

If you are looking for something that has more coverage and lasts much longer, then avoid this. This is good for an everyday natural look. But if you are going for a party or a night out, or for a special occasion then go for a better foundation like their Face stylist from the Absolute range. 

All I can say in the end is that it is perfect foundation for everyday use of you want a light coverage. Perfect for school/college/work. But if you extremely oily skin and you live in a very humid area, then definitely use a primer and then set it with a translucent powder otherwise it will oxidize and turn orange which happens to me pretty much everyday. If you have extreme dark circles and tiny zits, then go ahead and use a concealer along with the mouse.



Pros;
Light
Non-oily
Long-lasting(not 16 hours)
East to blend
Looks natural

Cons;
Oxidizes and fades
Had very less SPF
No ingredients list :(

On the whole, I will give this product a 3.5/5

I will recommend this to those who have oily-combination skin and a looking fr a product and that is light on the skin and on coverage as well. But, if you live in humid places, then definitely use a primer and a setting powder.

So that's it for this time, I hope you found this post helpful, if you did then please share it with your friends and give it a '+1'. If you have already used this then let me know in the comments how it worked for you and subscribe for more.

I will see you guys soon(hopefully :P)
Until then take care
Bye <3
