Keepin' Cool

Summer's hot rays have struck us all! With the UV attacking our skin its sometimes hard to maintain that sun-kissed glow. Instead we're burnt to a crisp! So to keep our skin healthy and happy, is a simple recipe!

Icy cool cucumbers just scream summer! If you have a busy schedule, you still have time for this!
Thinly slice one cucumber. If you're in a huge rush, you can buy pre-cut cucumber from your super market. Then place it in a bowl of water or green tea, whichever you prefer (green tea, it helps revive any sun damage to your skin. Water, will just keep your skin feeling fresh!) and place the bowl into the fridge. I choose to leave the bowl in the fridge all day and use this remedy during the night. If not, leave it in the freezer for about 20-25 minutes, you don't want it to turn to ice. 

Cleanse your skin and pat it dry. If very important to start with a clean palette! There's no point to working on dirty.

Take out the soaked cucumbers and place it on your face, or anywhere on your body actually.
Leave it on for about 20 minutes or until you feel the cucumbers lose its cool. :)

Rinse with water and then moisturize!

Finger Actitivites: Getting Fishy

I absolutely love FISH. I just can't help it!
Fish, water, ocean, beach. Doesn't this just scream summer?





I am loving this nails too! So fun to wear, though it is just a little bit more difficult to coordinate with my clothes, Oh well! Worth the trouble!

P.S. a tip, because there was so much going on with my nails, I didn't want to overwhelm my hand with lots of jewelry and color so I went with something a little more organic colored, like brown ;)


Want to know how to create this look?
