“Emerald eyes, like two precious gems, holding the magic of a thousand dreams.”
-unknown
Emerald eyeshadow exudes a sense of opulence and intrigue, making it a perfect choice to add a touch of drama and allure to your makeup look. Whether you’re attending a special event or just want to make a statement, this tutorial will guide you through the steps to create a mesmerizing emerald eyeshadow look that will turn heads and leave you feeling radiant.
Prep Your Canvas
Start with a cleanser to keep the skin supple. Apply two to three pumps of hyaluronic acid serum to plump up the skin to look fresh. Finish the prep with a lightweight moisturizer that hydrates ( PS: if you are trying this look for a day, apply some mattifying sunscreen as well).

Lay the Base
Use an illuminating primer to revive the radiance. Opt for a colour corrector in case of pigmentation. Go for a peach corrector in case of lighter pigmentation or an orange corrector or deeper peach in case of darker pigmentation. Buff some liquid foundation over the skin and cover the corrected areas. Glide a nude or nude-toned blush over your cheeks and eyes and swipe a bronzer on your jawline and cheekbones. This will create a smooth canvas and help your emerald eyeshadow blend seamlessly.
The eyes are fairly simple to achieve. Add a small pencil brush and the deep green eyeshadow on the outer corners to your lower lash line. This will tie the upper and lower parts of your eye makeup together. For a definition, start by powdering the lids and swiping the matte bronzer into the crease. Now comes the show’s star – the emerald eyeshadow- take emerald green matte eyeshadow and glide it onto our lids. Blend it out with a fluffy brush to create an extended eyeshadow look. Brush on a volume-maximizing mascara to complete the eye makeup.
Lip Color
Scrub your lips for any cracks or dead skin. Outline the edges with darker lip liners and diffuse them. Generously apply a nude lip lacquer for a neutral lip colour to balance the boldness of your emerald eyeshadow.
Conclusion
Emerald eyeshadow adds a touch of luxury and intrigue to your makeup look, making your eyes the center of attention. By following this step-by-step tutorial, you’ve unlocked the secrets to creating a captivating and radiant emerald eyeshadow look that’s perfect for special occasions or whenever you’re in the mood to dazzle.
Tip:Adding plumping and hydrating products to your skincare routine will help your face look more radiant.
So my lovelies, Embrace the elegance of emerald and step into a world of glamour and allure.

Healing your tired skin isn’t just about skipping makeup products; its all about following a detox practice.
-sweta
As we spend most of our time indoors, it is the best chance to detox our bodies and facial skin. As most of us still continue to work from home, it’s the right time to do a skin detox. Soothe your skin from the inside out by following a healthy diet, a skin cleansing routine, and an acne care regimen to help the skin shed toxins and maintain its glow. We need to intensely cleanse the deep-seated impurities, the stale particles of makeup, and the dead skin that, obviously is stored in the pores.
Let me share simple home care tips and tricks for an effective facial detox at home:
GET STEAMY
Steam clears up the pores and aids in loosening any build-up of dust for a deeper cleanse. Steaming opens the pores and softens blackheads or whiteheads allowing them to be gently extracted. The mixture of mild steam and water expands the blood vessels and boosts circulation.
EXFOLIATE
As you get older, the skin’s ability to shed dead skin cells begins to degrade, and it leads to dry and patchy skin that cannot receive any sort of nutrient-rich product that is applied to it. So, make sure to apply a mild exfoliant to have your skin shining and bright, even if you’re not going anywhere. The upper layer of your skin can be detoxified with exfoliation, but to enter the deeper layers and serve an intense cleanse hydration and nourishment are of utmost importance. I use Cetaphil gentle Scrub which is an amazing good product for skin routine.
HYDRATE YOUR SKIN
Hydrating and soothing toners cleanse the skin, reduce redness, and hydrate it. Sometimes a cleanser does not remove all the dust and oils from the face, and they can leave a residue. A toner will remove all this leftover dirt and give the face s fresh and refreshed look. It’s essential to use the toner after cleansing and before applying a moisturizer. This easy three-step method is sure to make your skin clean and bright. Clean the face with a mild cleanser to remove the oil from the skin, then use toner to remove the leftover dirt, and then apply moisturizer to hydrate the skin.
MASK UP
Product build-up and anxiety can take a toll on the skin and make it seem dark and dull. It’s necessary to pamper the skin with a detox session and keep it healthy. Clay masks are excellent for this purpose; they bring out dirt, absorb excess oil and unclog the pores. But I used a cucumber hydrating mask from K-beauty for super hydration. Add a mask to your skincare habit and use it two to three times a week for fresh, clear skin.
APPLY SUNSCREEN
The skin can get exposed to UV rays indoors as well. Regular windows can block out UVB rays to some extent, but they can’t tackle skin-damaging UVA rays, continued exposure to which can make the skin more prone to early ageing. So, use sunscreen indoors and reapply it every two to three hours to avoid dry-looking, distressed skin.
Detoxing your skin involves a combination of beneficial practices to restore its natural radiance and health. Whether harnessing the power of steam to open up your pores and promote deep cleansing. The gentle exfoliation that follows helps remove dead skin cells, allowing your skin to breathe freely or treat yourself to a refreshing cucumber mask, known for its soothing properties and ability to rejuvenate tired skin. Shield your newly revitalized skin from harmful sun rays with a layer of sunscreen, preserving its youthful glow and preventing damage. Complete your detox routine with toner and cleanser, working together to remove any remaining impurities and balance your skin’s pH level, leaving it feeling fresh, renewed, and ready to face the day with confidence.
Hoping you guys try at least two to three products to detoxify your skin and achieve hydration effortlessly.

Posting something which is practiced for personal hygiene, religious ritual or therapeutic purposes.something we do almost on a daily basis. Bath. Submergence in water helps to reduce pain and inflammation in the muscles and body, and soaking is a great way to help our bodies heal. Whether we’re tense from a long day behind a desk or an active workout, relaxing in a sumptuous bubble dip helps us to wind down, this is what I am penning down in my post today.
Most of us know about various cleansing patterns, but there is something deliciously soothing about a hot tub, it makes us feel weightless. Hot water is a natural and reassuring element. You just have to add bath bombs, essential oils or bath salts and there you go, you can create your own little sanctuary that will refresh your spirits and relax your limbs. A nice planned to bath always gives you a relaxing and reinvigorating experience. Close your eyes and let your worries float away, feel your tension at ease and awaken your senses.
Here are some tips and tricks to get that awesomeness of water to please your faculties.
Try steam shower daily. It opens up the pores of your skin and helps ease out the lousy blackheads and sister whiteheads that can keep your need for a monthly facial at bay. Try to aim the shower first at the back then at the front, face and shoulders using tranquil body wash which you can scrub gently with your fingertips. Your back supports the whole body structure so if you soothe it first you will generate your calm cells in the body. Taking a hot shower on the face also helps to reduce wrinkles. Keep your bathroom door shut to contain the steam within your shower area to let open bodily pores to the fullest. Switch to cool water for the final rinse.
Freebie fluffy Nylon loofahs are actually helpful in getting rid of dead skin. Scrub your knees, ankles, elbows, and armpits for that squeaky clean feel. Another kind of loofah that works well is the traditional loofah, as it’s an actual seedpod of tropical gourds. Naturally abrasive, it scrubs well. Don’t forget to dot the loofah with a spot of scrub for a quick job.
Sprinkle a few drops of aroma oil, chamomile, rose or lavender extracts into your bucket or tub for a soothing bath experience. Those fragrances have natural extracts to alleviate your senses.
I hope these super easy tricks and tips you are definitely going to use to dulcify your nous and going to try this in your following bath routine.
Also apart from those bath routines above, you can also try different types of baths such as:
Aromatherapy Bath: It is usually done by using aromatic fragrances. The scent, water and soothing heat generate a wonderful relaxation and healing effect. Pour in a few caps of bubble bath liquid and you are good to go. I used https://www.amazon.ca/Dr-Teals-Foaming-Lavender-Fluid/dp/B0080D1Q52 bath liquid with amazing Lavender fragrance.
Childhood Bath ( this is one of my favourites): Usually done by using a bubble bath bomb I usually use pink ones. The practice is popular for personal bathing because of the belief that it cleanses the skin, and that the foam insulates the bath water, keeping it warm for longer.
Milk Bath: By using soda bicarbonate. To make a baking soda bath, add between ¼ to 2 cups of baking soda to warm bath water and stir it around to let it dissolve. Once the baking soda has completely dissolved, soak it in the tub for up to 40 minutes. After the bath, pat the skin dry with a towel and use a natural oil or lotion to moisturize the skin.
All the ingredients used are handily available at your nearest store, so what are you waiting for, just try one of these and get a Spa Experience in the comfort of your home.
The world needs greener and greener, there is no doubt in every single word of the quote I mentioned above. Green is everything. As much as the world remains green so are our lives. What I feel is, the world needs to grow green as soon as possible. I know people all over already started a green lifestyle, they are going organic whether in food or clothing, and they are opting for more natural things rather than virtual, yes slowly and gradually things will change but of course, we have to take steps for that.
But today I am not discussing statistical things, rather I am talking about the colour as in fashion. Verdant love-Verdant is derived from the Old French word for “green,” vert, which in turn is from Latin virērē, meaning “to be green. The colour green is a most integral part of the spectrum which lies between blue and yellow, also you can see how nature plays with colours by keeping sky blue and sunshine yellow which directly creates a vast canvas of green pastures, land and forests. So, nature also justifies the importance of green.
Green is life. Green is everywhere. Not only in our nature but also in our lifestyle, health and of-course fashion. I am a green tea lover and I do live on it for years it is the biggest source of immunity booster and good for your overall health.
If talk about lifestyle, we all love to keep our houses breathable by decorating them with beautiful plants, small plants, big plants, beautiful big gardens or succulents in every room. Any way we love to show our love towards the green to let green prevail.
Even fashion industries all over the world never fail to display green colour on runways every year. No runway is complete without a splash of it. Green brings life, its ultimate stylish colour to wear and soothing to your eye. There are many green shades such as Olive green, Mint green, Pea green, Military green, Sacramento green and Neon green. You can play along with this colour any which way you like, extremely sporty and versatile shade. You can try it on with all the refreshed spins with this single colour.

I just love wearing this pair and teaming it up with black (ultimate combine with Lime green) whenever I have to go for a casual hangout.
SACRAMENTO GREEN COLOURED CROPPED SWEATSHIRT
