Let's sail away with My Little French Riviera Box!

Hello and Namaste to all!

   I have been waiting very patiently for this subscription box for a while now so I was over the moon when I finally saw it on my dining table! I couldn't wait to open it and share my views about the box! 

My impression of the Zoeva Retro Future Eyeshadow Palette!

Hello and Namaste to all!

   I am sure everyone who has even the slightest interest in makeup has heard or knows  about the very famous Zoeva makeup brushes! I bet every makeup guru on Youtube has at least one Zoeva makeup brush in their collection. However, I also know that these makeup brushes are on the expensive side so not every one can splurge on those beauties. Quite recently, when I was browsing through Beauty Bay, I came across the Zoeva Eyeshadow palettes which got me really curious and excited! Unlike the Zoeva makeup brushes, these eyeshadow palettes were affordable so I purchased a palette for myself. 

   Ta da! I will be reviewing the Zoeva Retro Future eyeshadow palette in this blog post. I purchased this palette from Beauty Bay for £15.95. This is one of my very first products from Zoeva so I was really excited to try it out.

June 2015 Glossy Box!

Hello and Namaste to all!

   Look what came in my mail? My June Glossy Box!!! Unlike last month, I will be able to share my impression of the June 2015 Glossy Box right on time! 

   The June Glossy Box is inspired by the festival season and 'sun drenched beaches'. It was nicely packaged like last time and was safely delivered to my home. I received three full sized products this month. So without further delay, let's have a look at the contents of the box! 

My top 10 exam tips and tricks!

Hello and Namaste to all!

   These past few weeks have been quite exhausting with all the exams going on. Being in the first year of university, the exam results are almost crucial for us to be able to get an offer for a summer internship next year. I know the competition is tough, but I keep reminding myself that I must never lose sight of what is important to me. When the going gets tough, the tough get going!

   So, I thought to myself why not write a blog post in celebration of the end of exams? Here are my ten tips and tricks for exams from my own personal experience.

1. Start your revision early!! I find that the earlier I start my revision, the better I cope with all the stress just before the exams. I start my revision at least 2-3 months early. Also, revision is a process. Don't stuff your brain with a load of information in one week and then do no revision for the rest of the following weeks. That won't be very helpful.
2. There is no such thing as a 'best' revision technique. Everybody is different so everyone's brain processes things differently. Use a revision technique that suits you best. There are loads of revision techniques you can choose from such as writing notes, drawing mind maps, listing things, writing model answers to questions, etc.

My first post, my first Glossy Box...

Hello and Namaste to all!

   Pretty excited and nervous about publishing my first ever blog post. Coincidentally, I am reviewing my first subscription beauty box in my first blog post. 

   Today I will be reviewing the Glossy Box of May 2015. I know May has already passed and it is quite late however, I really wanted to share my first experience with a subscription box. The idea of subscription goodie boxes have become popular only recently. There are a few boxes that deliver to the UK so, after much contemplation and careful comparisons, I decided to order the Glossy Box this May. 

   I ordered my Glossy Box from their online website. The ordering process was quite quick and easy which I was quite pleased about. It came in my mail 5 days after I had placed the order. The cost of the box is £10 however, the packaging and posting costs £3.25 extra. To me, the packaging and posting cost is a teensy bit expensive. Now moving onto the fun bit - the contents of the box!
