Salaam lovelies ,
Just a quick review for Souq_Maryam, few days ago I received few lovely items from the beautiful sister Maryam the owner of Souq_Maryam on Instagram. I will leave all her contact details down below if you guys are interested. The sister was ever so sweet and it is an absolute pleasure to work with her. I will put some pictures down below of the items she has available, they make great gifts for absolutely any occasion.





A bit of background about Souq_Maryam and what inspired her to start this journey.
``Being born & brought up in Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabia will always hold a huge spot in my heart and after moving to the UK with my husband i wanted to keep the touch of it alive,& also in other people's lives ... Hence, i decided to start a gift shop where i can provide an item that i bring especially from Saudi Arabia. What better name can it have than of my daughter's name?? :) i want to set an example for her, i want her to know that a woman's identity should not stop at "Mrs.so & so" ...

 Souq_Maryam- it’s a gift shop where you can find beautiful misbaha (tasbeeh beads) & bukhoor burners & hijaabs + hijaab caps & jewellery. Beautiful gift packaging options are also available & i even put a personalised msg in if you want the gift to be sent directly to your loved ones. Excellent quality guaranteed & in time delivery too. Wide range & questions & issues r addressed in the friendliest manner possible.

Korean face Masks

Wednesday, 10 February 2016

Salaam lovelies, I hope you are all well and in good health In'Sha'Allah.
I know it has been a while since i have written a blog post, i do apologise about that.
Today I'm back with one of my favourite things in the world haha more skin care products BUT this time, it's not DIY just some beautiful Korean masks that i have been loving. I hope you all enjoy the post. I will leave the link to the websites i have purchased from down below if you guys are interested.
 Black sugar mask washes off
I love this product it is amazing. if you know me i love trying out new products but I have to be very careful since  i have a very sensitive/ acne prone skin. I heard a lot of great things about this product so obviously, i had to give it a try and I swear it makes my face feels and look amazing and most importantly it does not break me out which is always a plus. As i have mentioned before i have sensitive/ acne prone/combination skin which makes it very hard for me to know which products to use and which to avoid but this mask is just awesome. I use it twice a week to get rid of any dead skin cells as i am currently using acne cream which makes my face peel so it is important for me to keep my skin soft and smooth since i wear makeup. The only thing i disliked about the mask is the smell is has a very funny scent.

 How to use:
I cleanse my face with La Roache-Posay cleanser for sensitive skin than i massage the mask while my face still damp away from my eyes and leave for 15-20 minutes than i rinse off with lukewarm water or cold if am feeling brave.
 ''To minimise irritation, add water or toner while massaging. Leave for 10-15 minutes. Rinse off with lukewarm water''.
 Pros
-Affordable
-Exfoliates gently.
- Sturdy packaging.
- Gentle on the skin
-Organic
 cons
-No spatula.
-unpleasant scent
 PRICE- £11

 Jeju volcanic pore clay mask
 Another great mask i got from the same website is the clay mask from Innisfree which is also a great Korean brand. I absolutely love this mud mask it feels amazing on the skin and can be used as a spot treatment as well as cleansing the face. I like to use this all over my face once a week only because i use different masks for different reasons during the week. I have heard a lot of great things from bloggers and YouTubers about Korean products now i can see why i mean Asian girls have the most amazing hair and skin so when i heard about this clay mask all i can think of was'' when am i going to buy this'' haha. I am a sucker when it comes to skin care products but before i buy anything i do my research i don't just take people word for it  because not every product will work for everyone, so it is important to know what works for your skin. also, another tip for a good skin is clean diet and  regular exercise without this combination nothing will work because your body needs both internal and external cleansing in order for it to generate new cells and so on.

what is says on their website 
''Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Clay Mask is a Jeju volcanic scoria clay mask to intensively absorb sebum and purify pores. Innisfree Jeju volcanic scoria is formulated from solidified lava caused by volcanic eruptions in Jeju Island. This pure and rare ingredient absorbs impurities and sebum that are deeply embedded in skin pores''.






How to use;
I cleanse my face, as usual, pat dry apply my toner to refine the skin than  spread  this mask on avoiding my eyes and mouth area because it is not tasty let me tell you that much. I leave it on for about 30 minutes, however, sometimes i do sleep with it if am using it to get rid of pimples
 pros
-perfect for all skin types
-affordable
-easy to apply
-non-drying
-exfoliate
cons
-unhygienic container
pricey for the amount of product you get(100ml)
 Price-£16
