I began my hair repair journey a year and a half ago, when I noticed that my hair had stopped growing and started to fall out. At that time, I was given a Dyson, so I used it a lot, without any protection or moisturising. So I started studying this topic more deeply. And this is a list of what I did during this time. Hope this will help you!

I test high-end, medium priced, and drugstore makeup for the best quality, the right texture, and the best colors for paler skin.

Your girl has got a lot of hair, so I’m a pro!

As a girl of South Asian ethnicity, dark/pigmented lips are a concern I've struggled with for most of my life. I'm not saying it's a problem, if you can rock your two-toned lips (many girls do and look amazing!) you go girl! But if you're someone like me then this might be a struggle or worse an insecurity for you, and this is why I went into a deep-dive on the internet, on Reddit, everywhere I could to find products that are actually worth trying and spending money on. So here's a collection of the internet's top recs for girls struggling with dark and hyper-pigmented lips. Keep in mind that before buying these products, it's definitely worth addressing possible root causes of the pigmentation which may include sun exposure, dehydration, smoking, allergic reactions to toothpastes and/or cosmetics, hormonal changes, medicines, and nutritional deficiencies (e.g B12). I also understand that many of these products may not be available in your region (I hope they are! but if they aren't continue reading!), so these ingredients are key to look out for while shopping for this concern: Vitamin C (an antioxidant that helps brighten skin), Kojic Acid, Alpha Arbutin (a natural skin lightening agent), AHAs (glycolic acid/lactic acid) (they help exfoliate dead skin), Niacinamide (known for skin lightening), and Licorice extract (helps inhibit melanin production). Beetroot juice can provide a temporary tint and reduce darkness overtime (applied), and a sun protectant lip balm is essential to prevent further damage to the lips! Hope this list helps anyone who needs it!

Sometime in the last 5 years I found that spending upwards of 2+ hours at the salon to get my nails done was no longer relaxing or how I wanted to spend my weekday evening or weekend afternoon. Fortunately, there are SO many ways to keep my nails looking pretty from the comfort of my own couch (or bed, some nights) and they not only save your day some time, but your wallet some $$$.
