Review - St. Ives Green Tea scrub

Hey guys! So I bought this product for about a month now and I have used it twice a day and I wanted to share it with you.  By the way, this is not sponsored and I have bought the product myself. I hope you will like this honest review!

  I bought this scrub because I wanted something to treat my blackheads, so I stumbled across this product and I have decided to give it a try. At first, I thought that it will make my blackheads disappear, but it didn't say anything about it on the packaging, so it doesn't. The first time that I have used it, it made my skin really soft and somehow brighter, which made me look awake. This scrub actually minimized my blackheads, so it is for skin prone blackheads. Maybe this product prevents blackheads, so I need to take them all off before I use the product. But in the meantime I will keep using it, because, as I said, it makes my skin look and feel incredible. In brief, I recommend this product to anybody who wants to give it a try. You can find it on amazon or in a local store. But before using it, read the directions on the product and the results will appear in the 2nd to 3rd week, so be patient.    

The mortal instruments - Book review

Hey guys! I have been wanting to write this article for a long time. So let's start with the rating. I give this series a 9,5 out of 10. Basically I don't want to give it a 10, because I am keeping it for the best book that exists on earth. So this series is the best one that I have read so far. I love how Cassandra Clare (the author) has written the book and how she invented that whole world.. I also like how they are no cliches, they are still werewolves, warlocks and vampires, but she adds stuff that most books don't talk about. They have even made a TV show about this book, but I will talk about this in another post. I also read the Mortal Instruments Origins and I am looking forward to read Lady Midnight as well.  If you have no idea of what the book talks, well it talks about a girl named Clary Fray and on her 18th birthday she founds out this whole new world that she hasn't seen before. They are warlocks,vampires, faeries and even demons. Don't worry about the demons, we don't talk a lot about them. If you wanna know more you have to read it *wink face*. Basically you should give this book a try and tell me what you think about it. By the way, I apologize for this messy text, but I am coming back to blogging and I still need to get used to it. Have a wonderful day.

Movie review - Zootopia

Hey guys! This weekend I went to see Zootopia at the movie theatre. And I loved it, I think it's my favourite Disney movie that I have watched so far. If you haven't heard about this movie, there is this city filled with animals, from the largest elephant to the smallest mice. By the way in this movie there is no such thing as humans. When Judy Hopps becomes the first bunny that is a police officer, she worked so hard to become something that she didn't want to become. She has to prove that she is better than what other animals think.

                                        

My favourite character beside Judy Hopps is probably officer Clawhauser because he is really cute, funny and he looks fluffy. I just love his personality. Have you seen the movie? Did you like it? Who is your favourite character?

Tips for cleaning up your room with a good mood

Everybody knows that feeling when you are entering your room and it is so messy you can't even look at it because there is too much stuff laying around and you need to clean it but you just are too lazy. Well today is your lucky day because I am giving you some great tips to help you tidy up that mess.

Tip #1 - Put some music on 

To put a beautiful smile on your face you should try listening to music while you are cleaning your room. I usually listen to the Today's Happy Pop on Songza (on the site or the app). Sing and dance to the music and it will may it much easier to clean.

Tip #2 - No piles under the bed

If you have dirty clothes, papers or whatever you have don't put them under your bed, because you will one day regret that laziness you had when you were "cleaning" your room and that day is when you will find interesting and ugly creatures in your room. hahahhahahahaha! So put everything were it belongs.

Tip #3 - Throw the stuff you won't need

This tips is similar to the second one. If you have papers, wrappers or anything you won't need in the future, throw it !

Tip #4 - Don't get distracted

If you find anything cool or interesting like a photo album from when you were 6 years old, put it aside for later, because if you start looking at it , you won't let it go and later you will realize that you didn't finish what you started and it's the end of the day.

Tip #5 - Freshen up the room

When you are done with that hard work, light up some candles or open the window(s) in the room. It will make you room smell nice and fresh.

Tip #6 - Keep it clean

This is the last and final tip. Try to keep your room clean, so you won't have to tidy up your room two times a week because it's too messy.

First snow

Hey guys! When I woke up this morning and I looked outside the window there was a beautiful white coat of snow on the ground. It made me feel happy. The first snow is always magical. Even my dog was happy, he was sniffing around the snow. Usually when there is alot more snow, about half a meter he will start eating it. Where I live there is no such thing as having a winter without having 2 meters of snow in your backyard. Anyway, I am really excited because the first snow means that Christmas is just around the corner. I actually wanted to take some pictures of the first snow but I had to go to school and when I got back it was dark outside. :( I will take some pictures when I will have the opportunity.

Have a beautiful day!

Blog update

Hey guys! In this really short post I want to tell you a few things about the blog. 

First things first. I just added a translate gadget, so that more people have the opportunity to read my blog in different languages. And I just wanted to apologize about the fact that I don't write as much as before, but I have a good reason and this reason is school. I will try my best to post but I won't make any promises that I will post weekly, but one thing is for sure I won't stop blogging. I have a few post ideas for the future! 

♥ Have a wonderful day ♥

Red Velvet Cookies

                       

Hey guys! I just tried a new recipe and I love it. I have never made red velvet cookies but they turned out pretty good. So I wanted to share the recipe with you. By the way I took this recipe from a cooking app named Yummly and the woman that shared this recipe on the app is Holly Lofthouse (click here to see her blog). So here is the recipe.

Preparation time: 40 minutes

Cooking time: 8-9 minutes per tray

Servings: On the blog it says 36 servings but I actually had 60. Oups!

Ingredients:

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

2 1/2 tablespoons cocoa powder 

1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch 

3/4 teaspoon baking soda 

1/2 teaspoon salt 

7 tablespoons butter, at room temperature 

6 tablespoons vegetable shortening, at room temperature 

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 

1 large egg

1 large egg yolk 

1 teaspoon white vinegar 

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract 

1 tablespoon vanilla extract 

1 tablespoon red food coloring 

1 1/3 cups white chocolate chips

Directions:

1- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F ( 190  degrees C ). In a medium bowl, mix together the flour,cocoa powder,cornstarch,baking soda and salt. Set aside.

2-Add butter,vegetable shortening and sugar to the bowl. Mix with an electric mixer on medium speed until very fluffy,for about 3 or so minutes. Add egg, egg yolk and mix until combined. Then add vinegar,vanilla and food coloring. Mix until well blended.

3- Slowly add dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Stir in 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips. Scoop dough out by the heaping Tablespoonful, and roll into balls. Place them on a parchment lined baking sheet. Gently press about 4-5 more white chocolate chips into the top of each cookie ball (I didn't do this part because mine were a little bit too small). Being careful not to flatten the cookie balls.

4- Bake cookies for 8-9 minutes. Allow cookies to cool for a few minutes. And enjoy!
