#100happydays

So I took this challenge of being Happy for 100 days in a row at the beginning of the year. And I am glad to share with you all that I successfully completed the challenge! *dances* 

To be honest with you in the beginning I would try and think of a 'Happy' moment and Instagram that away.  With time I began to discover that we are all so caught in the trivial things in life. If we desire every moment has something 'Happy' in it, we don't really care to see it. I'll stop with the philosophical ramble. But it's true! 

If you took the #100happydays challenge- please share your experiences in the comments below. 

I am sharing my Instagram id incase any of you want to check the pictures out. You can follow me on Instagram.

To check the rest of the pictures you can check my Instagram. 

If you guys haven't taken the challenge- start today !!! :D

Banoffee Pie!

Hello Lovelies!

I know I haven't blogged in very long and that's because I have been super busy with work and weddings and other things! However I promised myself to be more regular with blogging again :D

That aside, last night I had the craziest craving for Banoffee Pie. I was chatting with a friend and I kept rambling about how I wanted a piece of The Banoffee. To the extent I started Pinterest-ing photographs of the Treat and started watching YouTube tutorials on how to prepare a Banoffee Pie. :P

I woke up this morning and ran out of the house to get the ingredients together. Although I could have just gone to a bakery or something and purchased  it. But no Sir, preparing it was so much fun! 

Sharing a Blogpost about my fist attempt at putting a Banofie Pie Together. 

I know I look grumpy but I can assure you it's the glare from the sun. That's me under my house before we get the ingredients. 

Snapchat screen shot 😋

I am linking the tutorial that I followed

And tadaaa!

Ze Banoffee!

December 2013 - Beauty Favourites

Hey Guys,

First of all Wish you a very Happy 2014!  This is my first Blog Post of the year so here goes.. :) 

Some of you inboxed me requesting for a monthly beauty favorites blog post after reading the December Favourite Lipsticks Blog. 

So here goes ...

#BeautyFavourites

First up is the Fig & orange oil shower gel from Marks & Spenser. I purchased it in November and it has lasted me until January  2014! It was super economical - you can see the price tag in the photograph and lasted me for almost over 2 months. It's fragrance is divine! 

 

The next product that I absolutely loved in December was Calamine Lotion. 

This is my hero product. Post my trip to Goa I had awful amount of breakouts and no make up could be applied directly on to my skin, as the pores were constantly getting blocked. My dermatologist recommended the application of Calamine lotion and then the application of make up! And it worked wonders for me!

It even helped in lightening the blemishes on the skin. W

The fragrances that I wore all of last month were Marks & Spenser Oppulence and Marks & Spender Autograph. 

I literally mean these were my favorites! All the photographs are empty containers of the products that have been used up! 

Maybelines Baby Lips Lip Balm has been my saviour to get rid of the winter chapped lips this season. 

Up next 

Marks & Spenser Moisturising Strawberey Hand & Body Lotion has been a Winner for me! 

PS- If you all remember my recent Lush Haul http://shivikasharman.blogspot.com/2013/11/lush-ed.html

There are products like the Soap Bar. The Peace Massage Bar and others which are exhausting soon. Their used up jars were not very appealing to click! :p But I certainly endorse LUSH :) the products are amazing!

PPS- If you want me to Blog about a Haul soon for Feb 2014 please give this Blog a thumbs up and subscribe at

Hope you guys found this interesting and valuable. Please share your December 2013 favorites as well if you feel like. 

Lots of love,

Shivu
