iHijabi

Salaam girls! Today I shall be reviewing and comparing NARS' 'Sheer Matte', Mac's 'Studio Fix Fluid', Estee Lauder's 'Double Wear' and Artist of Makeup's 'Flawless HD' Now before I start you should know, I'm not a professional make-up artist, beauty blogger or a make up expert, all of the info in this post are just my personal views and opinions on things I have bought and used over the last year/year and half. My skin is oily/combination so all of these foundations are more suited to that type of skin. In the NARS foundation I'm the shade S yracuse , in MAC I am shade NC40 , in Estee Lauder Double Wear I am the shade Honey Bronze and in Artist of Make I'm shade 40 . For all of the foundations except Artist of Makeup I was matched by a consultant at the stores which I bought them from, however, because Artist of Makeup is only sold online I had to follow the comparison to MAC shades given by Zukreat herself

At the beginning of December my cousin got married, it was the happiest, most stressful, the most fun, the most exhausting time ever! Today I thought I'd share a few pictures from her mehndi. It was a small thing with just close family and friends but it was an amazing night spending time with all our loved ones. That's me in the gold hijab from Pearl Daisy....could you guess the colour scheme?

I met the owners/representatives for this company earlier this year whilst covering the Halal food festival at the London Excel. They had a stall at the event and I had a chance to speak to the rep's and get an idea of what these products were all about. The brother was really friendly and down to earth, they gave me some samples to take away and try out so that I can tell you guys about it. First up the Heavenly Moisture face cream .
