Happy Birthday to me!!!

January 31, 2014 Swati 5 Comments

Yay….Happy Birthday to me!! I so wait for this day to dawn. And, then, I get sad that it is over. My hubby was asking are you not unhappy that you get a year older. He was joking, of course, but the answer is no. I love being older and feeling younger. Anyways, signing off early today!! See you tomorrow with a new post πŸ™‚

Just Gossip Vol. 28 – The Secret is Out!!

January 28, 2014 Swati 8 Comments

I can not NOT share this with you!! Hehe…it is the most hilarious experience ever. My husband performed a google search on “What would be the first ideal gift” and the above pic explains all!!

He found the title interesting and started reading this post where I talked about our birthdays falling on the same day and what should I be gifting him! He thought that to be quite a coincidence. Then, he plunged further and checked out the New Year post where I mentioned Podgatlapalli which is his native place. Then, he plunged even further and found out the first night post which he was so angry with me for putting up πŸ˜€ He was like even I do not have those hotel snaps and you put them online 😐

I have never disclosed about my blogging work to any of my family members and lately I had been contemplating on telling it to my hubby but I was a little hesitant. And, then he stumbles on it automatically which negates my need to tell him anything!
Anyways, telling him this has made me rather open with him so guess whatever happened was for the good πŸ™‚ Oh btw, we had a post-wedding photoshoot on the Republic Day. It was fun and I shall be relating the experience sometime soon!

Pee Safe Toilet Sanitizer {Product Review}

January 26, 2014 Swati 4 Comments

Source: peesafe.in
Ok, so when I was talking about bathroom hygiene, I had mentioned that it is a prelude to a product review. And, now, we have this product which is a toilet sanitizer which you can carry anywhere. 
I have delayed its review by quite a long time. It came to me sometime in middle of September but I hardly had the chance to use it to my satisfaction or write the review. And, I most sincerely apologize for the delay.
How many times we see dirty toilets and wish that the place was clean just like our houses, right? Well, this product can be the first step towards that. Okay, at least the hygiene part!!
Now that I went on the trip to Haridwar and Rishikesh last week and traveled to Delhi in the train, I got to use the product to my liking, especially on the Train! The product should be sprayed on the intended object like commodes or taps or door knobs, wait for 5 seconds so that 99.99% germs are killed and then it is safe to be used.
The product claims to kill 99.99% germs. Now, I can not really say that how much percentage of germs are dead by this but let me just say that may be it will help at least with a 50% being very pessimistic. 
Now, the spray is a bit strong so keep away the children when you are doing it. If you have sprayed a deo for 5 seconds, you would know how much gas it releases and how strong it can become. Probably its best to be a little away while spraying so that you do not end up choking. 
Otherwise, its a pretty helpful object which can be used anywhere and it is easy to carry or wrap in a hand towel and at least can give you a mental satisfaction of cleanliness.   
Price : Rs 120

How often should the bathroom be cleaned? {Your Opinion}

January 24, 2014 Swati 6 Comments

Ok, so, this is a prelude to a product review. Now that I have been living in a house where the maid refuses to do the bathroom due to hygiene issues, it has become a US-like lifestyle where you do all things on your own. Even my mom actually has no maid in the house and she takes care of everything coz the maids are overcharging there in Delhi for the amount of work they do!! 
Anyways as much inconvenient it might be that maids are not cleaning the bathroom, I can really not say anything against it coz if we can not clean our stink ourselves, we have no right to ask it of others! This is one of the reason for the upsurge of so many professional sanitation services these days and they charge absurdly!! Check out on Sulekha if you need one.
So, this brought me straight to the question of how often one should clean the bathroom and second and more personal question of how clean is your bathroom. I might hit on some nerves here and I have no compunction doing that coz I know how it feels to enter a completely unmaintained bathroom. 
My mom is a cleanliness fanatic and even my dad is almost the same. So, every weekend at least, they clean the bathrooms using harpic and lizol or acid or what not and make it spic and span. If necessary, my dad cleans the bathroom more frequently like when relatives are gonna stay. To keep the commodes clean, he also puts a harpic tablet into the flush which runs for at least a week. 
This is what happens at my house where the occupants were three and later two. In my case, I used to get my bathroom cleaned every second day, on an average, even though it was only me using it. And, I have to add this that I did not know that my mom used to keep even the bathroom tiles clean and unmarked unless she came to stay with me and did the same in my bathroom.  
So, now, I have become such a freak that the maids would probably be afraid of the amount of work I will make them do in the bathroom. One concession is that if you get the things done correctly and to your amount of satisfaction in the first go and maintain it regularly thereafter, it is pretty easy to keep up with the same routine.     
So, how often do you clean your bathrooms?

Soulflower Grapeseed Oil {Product Review}

January 22, 2014 Swati 4 Comments

I have been using this oil since quite long. Earlier I had been using it just for the hair as a leave-in serum but in December and Jan, I had been using it as a moisturizer as well. So, how did this work out?

Ok, let me first talk about the texture of this oil. Grapeseed is supposed to be one of the best oils for the oily skin because of its lightness. Thus, it works amazingly as a leave-in serum without weighing the hair down. I had also put couple of drops of rosemary essential oil into the oil.

Since my hair is dry in texture, I can say it worked fantastically for me and there were lesser hair splits than normal. Just a drop or two of the oil rubbed on the palm and finger tips helps control the dryness of the scalp and hair!! And, it also helps with controlling dandruff and stimulates hair growth which was my main motivation to buy it!!

Regarding how it works on skin, I used it in the months of winter so it was absorbed quickly into the skin. And, needless to say, it was quite non-greasy and it did keep my skin moisturized all the time. In the harsher winters, one might need a layer of another moisturizer to keep the skin from drying but for Hyderabad, this oil sufficed quite well.

Also, I have noticed now that I have stopped using the oil, my skin has become dull. I have not been using sunscreen since almost three months and this oil had protected my skin quite well against the sun damage. My skin was bright enough and did not look dry or aged. But, now it has started looking a bit like that and the lines under the eyes have deepened as well. So, yes, it does protect the skin pretty well.

Price : Rs 350 for 30ml

Have you used this oil? Did you like it?
