Dove Beauty Body Cream



Dove- Beauty Body Cream.


Dove beauty body cream is a cream (obviously..lol) that comes in a tub..a jar like container which you twist the lid open to reveal the product.
It has a very mousse like consistency but not quite thick and not very runny. Its almost like whipped cream but not quite; its almost like a marriage between whipped cream and a body butter.
The scent to it is very clean, very fresh.
It leaves your skin very moisturized and the packaging claims "body silk" no doubt it makes your skin so soft and smooth that its almost like silk..:)
And you know like when you apply lotion or body butter it makes your hand or feet so greasy that you can no longer work with your hands or walk bare feet just cause everything would slip right away..one cant write cause the pen would slip away and that feeling when you just cant type on your phone cause your hands are so slippery that you hardly have any grip or control..argh! I hate that feeling. And that is the one reason why I would never use any type of cream or lotion on my hands, despite the fact that my hands are very dry. I would rather have them dry than slippery and sweaty..
But dove is the best solution for all my problems. It moisturizes my hands, feet, arms and legs so well and never do I notice any excess perspiration or greasiness in my hands..
It comes in a 300mle jar and lasts for quite a bit, as little goes a long way.:)
It is available in I believe 4 different flavors but im not sure..as i dont remember clearly..=s
I have almost hit pan in my jar..and I cant wait to try the others. Hopefully theyl be as great as this..*fingers crossed*..=p

Water Aerobics!!

Water Aerobics


Exercise!..
hmph!
I am very very grumpy when it comes to exercising.
Seriously, you should look at me in the gym when i'm on the treadmill or on my elliptical machine.
*phew*
BUT..I don't need to be sad anymore since now SUMMERS are HEREE!!!!!!!!!
YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY...*dance* *rock n roll*  =p
lol
Water aerobics is like magic for me.
You dont know when the 1 hour class ends.
Not once would I peek onto the clock to check how many minutes, seconds are left for the class to end.
Before I even know it, the class gets over and I have burnt all those calories and exercised with all the joy of splash and jumps..hehe
It is really wonderful.
NEVERTHELESS, after the class for a few days you do feel sore.
Which is a good thing, considering the fact that you're body has worked hard.
Secretly I like it..it is a feeling of accomplishment.
Like i'm doing something good for my body. :)
The reason why you dont feel the strength being consumed at the moment is because your body is submerged in water and water basically cuts out weight.
(FACT: One can even lift en elephant underwater...lol).
So lifting your body up and down moving it uses strength and to be honest if you're heavy or bulky it's kind of hard to lift youreself as easily as a person who is lighter would do.
Therefore, I feel water aerobics is the ultimate solution for me to exercise without even realizing it.
Walking , jogging no doubt is good, but then it does not tone your body like aerobics or yoga does, whereas, water aerobics tones your body..
Its exactly like aerobics on surface its just that now youre underwater and feel lighter..:)


My classes start on 2nd May, 2011 and I can't wait to join...!!
=D
yayyy!!:)

Current reading: Power of a woman by Barbara Taylor Bradford


 

Power Of a Woman
This is the book that I am currently reading.
It is quite a lean book has only about 300 pages.
I am rather not in the mood to read it completely just as yet.
Although the book is a serene read and definitely a page turner. Guess, I can control the urge to keep on reading. Lol.
And il tell you why.
I have exams in about 2 weeks and right now im preparing for them. Usually what i would do is, stop reading, stop all or absolutely any other activities that i would normally do, a month or 2 in advance of my exams. So much so that i would think of them as a sin. I have noticed through these years that by doing so I would build up my pressure of studying and since I would be so strict on myself my performance got affected.Always! Until recently when I have realised that by limiting my time to studying I precisely know what to do and when to do therefore I feel that I am now more focused as I know I have to study in this time so that I can get my 'chill ' time and enjoy just as I would normally do. Nevertheless, giving a bit more time to studying than usual since exams are just around the corner.
So anyways coming back to the book. I recently finished a book from the same author called 'Remember.' It was a beautiful read, a page turner and I loved it so much that I had fallen in love with the characters. Now! for me this is a big thing as I usually dont get involved that quickly with the characters of the book.
Since my library had another of her books I decided to give this one a try. 
I love it already and I am very excited to read ahead.:)
So coming back to the topic of "studying with joy"..I feel that if i have a light read in my hand as oppose to the course books and essays it really helps my mind rest and refresh without making me lazy as happens when I watch television.
Thus, i am glad and thankful to God for this innovation that I have come across.
So i guess Happy Exams to me!=s






P.s: not that i now love exams or even being around them *sick face * its just that i have learnt how to make it work for me..

TAG= My perfect Imperfections

I love watching tag videos.
Andrea from youtube.
I have linked her video in this blog post came up with this idea.
I always wanted to do these kind of videos but because i don't make videos.
I feel i can share or rather do these tags here on blogs..:)
Yayyy..so i am really excited..
Let's get started..!!


This is a tag video in which you basically have to mention 3 things that you don't like about yourself or rather something that bothers you but you wouldn't want to change in yourself as it makes you.
Then in the end, you have to mention 3 things that you really like..


3 things i don't like about myself:


1. My nose is quite chiseled but sometimes it bumps on either sides..it bothers me a lot..but not that others can notice it..lol
but it still bothers me..=p


2.  My hair are so silky..not that its a bad thing but it gets so annoying as i can hardly make any hairstyle..:(


3.  My nails are so weak that they chip so easily..:(


Okay, so now for the 3 things i like: 


1.  My eyes. I like their color as i can make them appear to be green brown or hazel just by using different colors.


2.  My eyelashes. They are long and full, maybe that is the reason why i hate wearing a mascara.


3.  ummmmmmm...why is it taking me so long??...=/
I guess its my eyebrows. They are really thick yet separated and quite defined and i have never gone wrong with them just cause their shape is so defined.


That wraps up my tag of perfect imperfections..:)
And i had a lot of fun doing it..
And i suggest everyone should do it.
If not on the internet then definitely in your mind.It is actually quite fun.
You will be shocked to see the answers you come up with.
Cause i sure was..!!


Have a great day 
and thank you!!:)







Watermelon

This is the season of watermelons.....
ummmm...yummyyy!!
I love watermelons..!!
It is the one thing that i can live off for the rest of my life..=p
It is unbeatable when its ice cold.
I don't really like it at room temperature..but then again its watermelon...hehehe
I can eat it directly from the shell, but i would usually slice it up fill up a Pyrex glass bowl and chill it in the freezer until the next day(don't worry..i always have back-ups stored..=p), i love the syrup that forms in the base of the bowl it semi-dips the pyramids of watermelon in them...yummy!!*slurp*
OmG!! Love it...
Plus its healthy too..so a sweet, succulent piece of watermelon is perfect for those sugar craving days. Although i wouldn't mind eating a whole watermelon in one day..=p
hahahahaha


The Phone on My Wishlist!!

 Okay, so this is my dream phone.
I know for some it may not be such a big deal.
As these days there is a running hype for blackberry's and i phone's but i am a Nokia girl.
all the way.
Have always owned one.
and love their durability and features to death.
It comes in 5 different colors.
And from a website i got this information that it has an Fm transmitter, which i totally love.
N 79- my current phone.
I have a Nokia N 79.
The best thing about my current phone is that it is white (which is one of my favorite colors), camera(5 mega pixel) and has an FM transmitter which is basically to connect your phone's music library to your car's radio by tunning into the same station.
Its is so cool.
I specially love it when i am driving.
And I am the kind of a person who gets stuck with one track and end up setting it as my message tune, caller tune, alarm tone and what not.
So basically (Long story short) I am in love with this feature and would never give it up.=)
Out of the color range it offers I am in love with the blue one as it is again one of my favorite colors.

N 8 in Blue

It is quite a bit on the pricey side, costs almost as much as the blackberry I guess, but the most amazing thing thing it has is its HD quality camera.
I can not wait to get my hands on this phone.

=p
