GreenStoryblog.com


Guilt mumble, about what?! …The ‘shopaholism’ sickness!! A girl doesn’t born with that or do they? I don’t know…!! It was just 5/6 year before, I remember buying products only after finishing one! My interest majorly roam around beauty product hence its now spreading…. to every single useless stuff!! Sometimes I blame that I started blogging, its like the more you know, the more your desire list grows up! But again I think its only me and my mind! I buy things which are not necessary then I through them in drawer, forget about them and again start to think what to buy next! It wouldn’t feel bad if those stuff come in to use atleast for once!!!
I deeply feel sad for my money and me!!! However, Just made a $100 damage then thought to write this post.. why?.. I should have some written evidence to this cure shoppy-sick mind! This guild should never get chance to grow more, Phew…….!!

Take Care all you beautiful people.

Flormar Nailpolish: Black Dot, Matte & more…

2

flormar

I’m happy that we have Flormar here in BD, they recently came up with variety of nail polishes and top coats. Its hard to decide which one to pick and which one to leave as I’m a big fan of Flormar nailpolish because of their excellent quality, Its hard to decide which one to pick and which one to leave.

I picked up few last month from their new collection. Most of them cost BDT 200-250/-

Flormar Black Dot Nail Enamel:
flormar1

Black dot collection attracted me most among all. Loved all these pastel color and they are supper long lasting and hard enough to remove because of glitter particle.

It felt so candy like while I was wearing them 🙂 I think these colors are perfect for summer!



Flormar Matte Nail Enamel:
flormar3flormar5

These matte polishes are good yet I didnt found it much impressive. They dries so fast which is why it is almost impossible to create an even nail bed. I liked Flormar’s matte top coat better than these. 



Flormar Glitter & Icy Topcoat:

Both of these top coat are nice and long lasting yet didn’t like the icy topcoat much. I found it nothing like ice but some flakes of white paper 🙁

DIY Hair Oil Recipe | For Hair Growth & Hair Shine

4

This no expert recipe yet this is the hair oil recipe that I have been following myself for a long time now to keep my hair healthy. I personally hate any kind of oil but we all know oil is the most effective element when it comes to hydrate, penetrate, restore moisture in your hair. So I need to feed my hair with oil 🙂

[wp_ad_camp_4][/wp_ad_camp_4]

Ingredients you need:

*Coconut oil 100ml
*Almond oil 50ml
*castor oil 50ml
*Olive oil 25ml
*Black cumin seed oil 25ml
*Fenugreek seed 100g
*Green amla 15-20pc

Process:

Crush amla and half of fenugreek seed in a blender then take them in a pan. Add all oils in it. Boil the mixture for 5 minutes. After boiling filter and dispose of the remaining of amla and fenugreek. Store the filtered oil in a jar and add rest half fenugreek in it. Let it rest overnight, after that the oil is ready to use.

You can also store the oil for a long time. A full jar of mine last around 4/5 months. To keep the oil fresh, put the jar in the sun at least once in a month.


Benefit of this Hair Oil:

I do oil therapy for my hair three times a week. Before applying I put the oil in the oven for 30sec to warm up  a bit. Then massage scalp as well as hair root to tip with this oil, keep it for 2/3 hours and then wash off normally with shampoo.
This oil effectively helps to restore moisture and shine in hair; as well as over the time it will accelerate hair growth. If you ask me about hair fall issue then I won’t be able to assure you much because I have been using it for long and my hair fall ratio always been the same.


Try the oil recipe, you might find it useful and don’t forget to let me know how it goes 🙂

Lip color for summerLip color for summer 
Summer is here. Flame of sun literally burning my eyes, cant tolerate any bright popping color this days where current trend is bright and vibrant colors. My eyes may be its my mind continuously seeking for twilight! Color picking definitely depends on ones mental situation(lol, I was a student of color psychology, now I’m judging me!).

[wp_ad_camp_5][/wp_ad_camp_5]

Today I was sorting my lip colors for this summer and came up with eight dusky lipstick some are warm some are cool in hue. Most of base colors are pink and coral, there is also a orange brown and dark plum. Obviously I picked mostly matte shade for this summer thus I’m always a matte lover.

Pohela Boishakh 2014 (Bangla NewYear 1421)

4

boishakh
14th April, 2014 was Pohela Boishakh, Bangla NewYear, 1421. A heart warming day for every Bangali around the world and I believe here in Bangladesh we celebrate the day in its fullest. It would be always less no matter how I try to describe the event. Main event and ‘Mongol Shova Jatra’ brought out from the Dhaka university area yet the whole country farewell to all previous woes and welcome the brand new year regardless of race and religion carrying the one identity that we are ‘Bangali’ with full of color. Red is our staple color for the day. Another amazing thing I must mention, we do the worlds largest street Alpona(motif) art(aprox 350,00sft) overnight on both side of Manik Mia Avenue, Dhaka on the new year eve which represents the folk culture of Bangladesh. I wish I could take a picture by myself to show you guys but bad luck, haven’t been there this time.

However, how I celebrated the day? Obviously it started with deshi food. I cooked shorisha Iish(Hilsha fish) curry, shutki(dry fish), pat shak(jute leaf) and there was also fried red chili and rice!

And then, roaming around in the street! I wore the saree husband gift me for the day. Saree has always been a scary thing for me but the day wouldn’t be perfect without saree and of-course Mr. Husband wanted me to wear saree..lol ! I kept my base makeup as light as possible and tied hair up to fight the hot climate. A big red tip(bindi) was there as a center of attraction which specially carried the traditional touch of my look.
