Micellar water is a skin care product that can help cleanse and tone the skin. Many dermatologists recommend it and list that In addition to promoting skin hydration, the micelle surfactant molecule is suspended in liquid/water and surrounds any makeup or dirt, and gently removes the residue from the skin. Micellar water is my go-to for removing my makeup and I have tried many brands. I did enjoy the Simple product because like the label stated it felt kind to skin. What I like about Micellar water is that my skin can be sensitive at times, and the brands I have tried have not caused any fla ..read more

  I was gifted some fingernail polish and thought about how good it feels to have a home manicure.  To start this process, gather all your supplies which might look like the following list. Base coat Cotton balls Cuticle oil or hand cream Nail trimmers Nail buffer Nail color Nail file Nail polish remover Orange stick Top coat If you're wearing old polish, remove it. Then, trim and buff your nails till you have them at the desired length. I keep mine pretty short.  Soak your nails in a bowl of warm water for five minutes.

Last month I purchased some items and most of them had one thing in come - a cheerful pattern! I'm constantly going out to the garden to see if I have any more flowers in bloom so that may be in part why I say yes to FLORALS. Well, it's that.

I'm such a big fan of the Victorian era as it expanded the horizons of education and literacy.  Charles Dickens published the first parts of his novel Oliver Twist, in the same year that Queen Victoria ascended the throne.

On top of this, there was a rapid increase in the number of women writers and it brought about the famous Bronte sisters. Charlotte Bronte is famous for the novel Jane Eyre, published in 1847. Emily Bronte, publish ..read more
