HAVE YOU ADDED THESE SUMMER FRUITS TO YOUR DIET?

Always try to make the most of the season’s produce by adding delectables fruits to your summer diet

The oppressive heat and sweltering water conditions have made life difficult for everyone. Because of the hot weather, people of all ages are experiencing various challenges. An easy way to battle the heat is by including fresh fruits and vegetables as part of your diet. Summers are killing and the best way to treat us with a cool breeze of freshness is nothing but the Summer fruits which are not only delectable but extremely good for your health.

Seasonal summer fruits appear during the season, serving the dual purpose of hydrating and cooling the body. They provide a lot of vitamins and water, which is necessary to battle the heat. These fruits should be included in everyone’s diet, especially that of older people, during this hot season.

Here are the fruits I am talking about:

COCONUT WATER

A Coconut is the edible fruit of an edible palm It improves your endurance. Coconut meat contains large amounts of medium chain fatty acids, a type of saturated fat that is much easier for the human body to digest than animal fats. Give you better oral health. It also contains antimicrobial properties. Help you lose weight. It can be eaten as food or used as medicine. Coconut is taken by mouth for bladder stones, diabetes, high cholesterol, and weight loss. In foods, coconut is used in various preparations.

ORANGES

In addition to being rich in vitamin C, oranges also contain potassium and nutrients, which help treat muscle pain and cramps. Oranges also help build strong immunity and enable the body to fight diseases. In addition to vitamin C, oranges have other nutrients that keep your body healthy. The fibre in oranges can keep blood sugar levels in check and reduce high cholesterol to prevent cardiovascular disease. Oranges contain approximately 55 milligrams of calcium or 6% of your daily requirement.

WATERMELON

Watermelon is one of the best fruits to consume in the summer. It has a high water content, which keeps the body hydrated. It is also rich in lycopene, which protects the body from sun damage. Also, watermelon is an antioxidant that helps break down harmful free-oxygen radicals. It prevents kidney injury and therefore, is a kidney-friendly food.

KIWIS

Like oranges, kiwis are rich in vitamin C and delight to the taste buds. They have a cooling effect on the body and contain vitamins, potassium, and fibre. Kiwis are high in dietary fibre and provide a variety of health benefits. This tart fruit can support heart health, digestive health, and immunity. The kiwi is a healthy choice of fruit and is rich in vitamins and antioxidants.

Above are the fruits which are beneficial in one way or the other, entirely securing your body from harmful toxins that enter your body from different sources. Be mindful of eating the fruits for good health, be prudent in taking care of your body, and be alert to eat right! Because it never matters how good you look from the outside what actually matters is if everything is good from the inside. So get some summery fruits for yourself and treat your inner organs with good health and happiness.

LET’S TRY SLEEK HAIR AND STATEMENT BROWS!!

Let’s create a look for lunch date or a meeting like in no time!

your blogger

I am trying to create a minimalistic look this time. Being so simple you can certainly wear this on any meeting or lunch date without an alternative. Minimalist makeup is a big trend right now. Having a minimal makeup collection can help you save money, space, and time. Getting ready every day in less than five minutes is fantastic, and it’s not as hard as you think. Makeup is just a tool to enhance your natural beauty.

Let’s decode the look step by step:

  • To start with spray some rose water on your face then massage with moisturizer onto your skin.
  • Use a primer as a base.
  • Next, apply a matte foundation. Blend it well all over your face, hairline and neck.
  • Fill out your brows with an eyebrow pencil for strong, statement brows.
  • Use a muted gold -bronze eyeshadow all over the upper eyelids(apply the colours till the brows). Smudge a little on the lower lid as well.
  • Draw a barely-there line along the upper lash line.
  • Apply a coat of mascara to the upper lashes.
  • Use a warm muted-bronze cream blush or highlighter to contour the cheeks.
  • Finish off by dabbing some foundation with your fingertips for a nude look.
  • Apply a smoothening or de-frizzing serum and blow dry your hair straight.
  • Make a deep centre parting, pin hair behind the ears on both sides and leave the rest of the hair loose.
  • Set with a shine spray.

Ta-da !!! This is a subtle yet strong look. Bold brows work best on nude faces. Do try this look as it takes absolutely no time.

WATERMELON COOLER

It’s Watermelon weather/That summer kind of weather /When people get together and sing

Guy Webster

Summer is here. In Canada, summer shines a little late usually after May. Summers are all fun whether it’s going out on picnics, trekking, hiking, breathable dressing, or lots of fun or cool drinks to quench our thirsts. Personally, I love mountains and snow but don’t mind roaming in floral dresses with awesome smoothies, shakes or mocktails in hand or thinking twice before going out which I usually do in winter.

The best part of summer is the sun and warmth but that part often makes you sweat, thirsty and dehydrated. We have to keep in mind that while enjoying out in hot weather we always keep ourselves hydrated either by drinking lots of water or drinking homemade juices, shakes or smoothies.

Here is one such drink to quench your thirst this summer: Watermelon Cooler

Watermelon is a great source of high water content and provides nutrients like Lycopene, Citrulline, and Vitamin A and C. Studies suggest that this sweet red, melon may even boost heart health, reduce muscle soreness and decrease inflammation. It provides energy and is easy to make.

Nothing boosts energy quite like the natural sugars found in fruits. One of my favourites is watermelon. An added advantage is that it is full of nutritional goodness.

It’s easy to make let me give you the recipe real quick:

INGREDIENTS

  1. 3 cups chopped Watermelon
  2. 8-12 ice cubes (optional) as its still so cold in Canada so I didn’t use them
  3. 1/4 tbsp Black Salt
  4. 1 tbsp Honey
  5. 1/4 tbsp Lemon Juice
  6. Fresh Mint for the garnish

HOW TO DO IT

Blend together all the ingredients in a blender. Strain the juice if you like, Serve and garnish with mint.

Nothing can replace the refreshing energy your body will receive after drinking this glass of pure health. Do try it guys and rock this summer with freshness and nutrition.

Hope you have great fun and lots of beach time!

Thanks for reading!

Stay Safe Stay Healthy!

MY HEART GOES BLOOM

“LET A HUNDRED FLOWER BLOOM”

MAO ZEDONG

Hey ya! Spring is almost here! and so are bright and bloomy and gloomy days are back! After such a brutal winter of -35 below herein, Canada the season almost arrived and I waited to go out and enjoy the sunshine. Not the real blooms but I do have a post for you guys to consider flowery hair accessories this summer, which are not only cute but give a feel that you are almost wearing flowers in your hair!!

I love accessories of all kinds, apart from that they are the most integral part of fashion and style. A piece of accessories can take your whole look to the next level with a statement. One correct adornment can save you from ruining the whole look that’s what I feel about accessories. I do believe that these beautiful pieces play a vital role in your overall appearance actually, they play an equally visible role when it comes to enhancing your fashion game. Trust me these cute little things are so very important!

In this post, I am going to mention one such ornament which enhances the look of the crown of our whole personality. Yes, you are thinking absolutely right! Although there are many of them, I am going to talk about floral hairpieces which are as fresh as spring air and look so beautiful when you wear them.

Whenever you dream of garden parties and sundowners, tea parties or any blossomy theme party these beautiful flowery tiaras, bejewelled hair bits and kitschy bandanas will definitely get you there. One can literally have a love affair with these floral crowns, these beautiful, blooming, bright and colourful wreaths are popular style at the solstice, beach, high teas, BBQ outdoor dinners or even weddings with flower-patterned themes and keep us inspired to get these awesome head tappers all the way through festivities.

We have beautiful blooming creations to opt from whether it is a satin hairband with rose corsages, big crystal hair accessory, floral print head bandanas, crystal-encrusted headbands, crystal-encrusted metal hair clips or pearl and crystal brooches to immediately transform us into princesses.

You know what? the best part of these head tappers is; that you can even DIY them at your own home with lots of creative additions and little fuss. So let’s begin with the most romantic spring trend which is all flowers, to nail the whole look don’t forget to wear a floral dress with that.

PS: Try to pull up your hair into a beautiful bun and highlight the brooch and let your hair open for headbands.

Happy Spring Ahead Everyone!

” Makeup is an extraordinary tool that allows me to share my inspirations, my fantasies, and my vision with the world”

PAT McGRATH

Glittery eye accents and warm highlights are definite standouts for any season, especially when we are transforming from one season to another. And taking this to newer heights by trying on earthy tones is a bang-on! My love for earthy tones will never end and also it’s my mantra when I am not planning to go overboard and keep it close to simple. Earthy shades always glam up the whole look by keeping it subtle which other shades or colour palettes rarely do. You can play any which way with these earthy shades as they rarely go wrong and can be experimental any time you want.

Let me decode one such makeup look which includes all earthy shades from head to toe as you can accessorize this look with a proper hairdo and take this to next level.

Like previous tutorials again we have to focus on three major areas to nail this look!

Let me start with:

CHEEKS

  • Moisturise your skin, I used Aveeno Moisturiser the best suitable for any skin type.
  • Will use bronzer in the end, not now.

EYES

  • Choose an ordinary eyliner, I used Nyx Eyeliner make it winged liner to enhance the look.
  • Well shaped Eyebrows is a bonus feature to add with this.
  • Glam it up with gold or bronze accents.
  • This eye makeup involves a warm metallic earthy shade for an eyeshadow as per your skin tone, I used L’oreal Infalliable Eyeshadow.
  • Swipe up the mascara to amp up the look.
  • You can slightly play with the eyes by giving hint of metallic dab to inner and outer corners.

LIPS

  • This look demands something ingenious to go with.
  • Just a hint of nude gloss lipstick, I used L’oreal Pro Gloss lipstick.
  • Yes, you are right! not a right time to wear statement lips as we are looking for overall earthy look for a face. So nothing works best then Nudes.

Finally, give a hint of bronzer to the cheeks which belong to an earthy colour palette for finishing!

Not to mention, to augment the whole look I opted for a voluminous top knot with geometrical earrings.

Everything on the face feels so real and natural with a hint of metallic glam but still ethereal and that’s the whole beauty of this makeup do! I hope you guys like it and give it a try for your next night out with family or friends.

Stay safe, Keep Smiling!

Thank you so much for reading!
