Magic Mascara
Benefit Cosmetics Roller Lash Mascara $29 CDN
In my life a weekly visit to Sephora is essential! Not because I love buying, using and reviewing new products but because it truly makes me happy to just walk around and explore. I think I even get some sort of weird pleasure from the never-ending line at cash.
During my visit last week the day the Benefit Cosmetics Roller Last Mascara launched! Of course I had to pick it up! I have to be honest I don’t use mascara on an everyday basis because I do have naturally long lashes and find that at times it looks a bit excessive on me. I do however, adore this mascara! it is amazing. Its wand is different and the formula feels great; such good new innovation.
First impression: I love the packaging. The colors and design at great! The wand is different from any other. The bristles on one side are so small and close together almost like little teeth and the other side are longer thicker. I think it would be great for lengthening and curling.
As I applied it on my lashes I felt a pull and my lashes look so much longer. Also I noticed after a few uses that you have to kind of twist and pull for the best technique. I didn’t even use an eye lash curler before and the curl from this mascara is incredible.
Hope everyone tries it out! Would love hear your opinions

Lip Junkie…
So its Saturday night and I can feel a migraine coming on *ouch* but I just had to say this… I’ve just had an epiphany ( I love love love this word) that I’m beyond obsessed with lip balms. I generally have dry skin and sometimes don’t drink as much water as I’d like to. My lips are always soft but tend to get dry and sensitive at the slightest change in diet, weather, emotions basically anything can set them off. I always lather on baby lips before bed, but during the day I’m all over the place so I just don’t and then I feel like crap. I also tend to lick my lips a lot which I’m sure is contributing to the dry lips. I love baby lips (blue), I have it in all my bags, drawers, all over my house. I’ve started using eos recently and it leave my lips super soft but it dries out a lot sooner than the baby lips. I was just lying in bed and I looked at my side table and saw 2 eos and 1 baby lips; I thought to my self ‘I might have a problem’.
I’m sure everyone has that one body part or product they are obsessed with! So I’d love to hear what it is for everyone?
Happy Saturday Night

Whats your Poison?
This is my first blogger rant!
I’ve never been attracted to any drugs, I barely drink on very special occasions. I’m an extremely social and open person, so i don’t really need the motivation. My drug of choice is Coca-Cola, I’ve been trying to stay away from it for years, but I always end up back with it. This time it was that I was in so much pain that the process of showering would leave me so drained I’d be dizzy. So in attempts to not faint I’d keep sipping coke.
I love coke commercials, they are usually extremely sweet and grabbing. I love share a coke, what bugs me about it is that most ethnic names aren’t on that list. I have an exceptionally unique name and don’t expect to find it on a can. However there are names that are known in all parts of the world, and should be easy to find.
Whats your Pattern?
Everyone has a pattern, the type of person they date or just seem to attract. Mine happens to be the damaged, the kind of damaged that can’t be fixed. People who suck you of all the goodness in you and its impossible to cut off. They bring your bar of expectations so low that even the slightest glimpse of nice can make you swoon. I think knowing who you are as a person and what you have to offer is key. Its taken me a long time to realize that I have a lot to offer to a relationship and I deserve to be treated right. I’m not a therapist or anyones mother, I’m an amazing person who you can fuck but I’m done being screwed by men.
I’ve been trying to make a conscious effort to get out of my pattern, at some point I even thought that if I’m attracted to someone, I shouldn’t date them. I should go for people I’d never consider. As a result I find my self in this limbo of not know who’s good for me and who’s just plain toxic.
In my 3 weeks of being stuck in bed and not being able to move, I’ve given it a lot of thought and attempted to detach myself from the obvious toxic relationships. As with food a detox is never easy, its hard to let go and accept that its the right thing.
Bare Naked
Over this weekend I somehow ended up in a discussion with my mother and a few friends about…well what else: why today its unacceptable to have hair on your vag. I personally like it completely bare, but I’m Indian, light skinned and have dark hair and it just feels clean. Sexually also every partner I’ve had seems to prefer it naked.
Is this saying something about the subconscious needs of men? A friend said she is against the naked V, because she feels like a child and its disgusting if her man wants that. Someone else said well these days guys are big on putting there mouth down there so it makes more sense if theres no hair. Yet in the same spirit ladies do you prefer your men to be bare as well? We spend sometime down on them and is the hair a bother?
I’d love to hear opinions on this!
Modern day…Diary
Dear Diary
My entire life I’ve always tried to keep a diary, the secret place I write my more private thoughts in. I could never keep it up. Turns out this is the 2014 diary, we write for ourselves and hopefully to inspire or help someone. I don’t think I want people I know to read my blog. I like its privacy to that extent. A diary hidden in my drawer never worked for me because, my thoughts are so fleeting that I need to be able to write it down there and then. Also its kind of nice to have people read and comment on my thoughts.
Although, the trauma of creating a blog is something that my parents never had to deal with when pen on paper were the trend. Choosing a blog name and a theme! are countless choices a good thing? have we simplified or complicated our lives?
Life’s Luxuries
As I lay naked on my bed, I felt the room spinning; and at the back of my mind only one thought: I really need to take that shower.
I’ve always been clumsy and accident prone, its usually quite humours.
On Friday I had a craving for some chicken tikka masala and some bollywood. I left the movie store excited and as I stepped off the sidewalk, I heard my self scream! and then my mother! I knew it was my ankle.
As I looked up I saw several brown people looking down at me, asking ‘what happened’. My two thoughts were that you saw me fall, why are you asking; and I need sugar or Ill faint. I sat in the middle of the street for a while, my mother rushed to get that coke and as I took a sip a guy not much older than me said ‘I’m not sure how this will help’. I thought to my self: if I wasn’t dying of pain I’d explain it to you.
I of course refused to go to the hospital and sit all night in wait of an X-ray. Mother took me home and parked the car in its usual spot, not too far from the elevator. Now that I think about it, why didn’t we just take the car till the door? I couldve avoided that walk of tears and pain.
Unable to move and shattered independence. This injury is more psychological than physical
