New Year, New Blog, Same Girl?


Well hello there! It's been a hot minute since I've blogged on here.

The last year last truly been one of growth, hard work and (working on!) self love.

I originally started this blog to share my love for makeup and such, but it's been hard to keep up posting when I've changed a lot, in terms of my interests and who I am as a person now!

Of course, I still love makeup, but I've also really delved into a lot more interests of mine, that I'm very excited to share with you all on my new and improved blog. I really want this to be a space where I can share anything I really feel like sharing.

So what can you expect to read on here from here on out?

  • Cruelty free & vegan skincare - this has been huge for me the past year. I've really switched up my makeup, skincare and haircare routine to be completely cruelty free, which has been a really fun adventure. 
  • Self love & Self care motivational posts - one thing that I've really worked for is just generally taking better care of myself, loving myself the way I am and it has changed my life in such a huge way. I love reading posts from positive, self love promoting people, be it on blogs or Instagram, and I want nothing more than to be a part of this positivity myself! 
  • Sharing my health journey - I deal with chronic pain issues and I'm currently going through some other health difficulties, but finding a positive, motivating community online has truly helped me cope so much better. I definitely want to share my advice and motivation for those who are also struggling! 
  • Plant based recipes - Since going (mostly) plant based, I've been cooking up a storm and discovered tons of incredible, yummy recipes that I can't wait to share. 
I hope you're as excited as I am to join me on this new chapter of positivity! 

Sincerely, 
Dina

The BEST and EASIEST Waffle Recipe! (Blogmas Day 9)

When it starts to get chilly out, I find myself making waffles pretty often. In fact, our Sunday breakfast usually consists of waffles of some kind. And in my house, I'm the designated waffle chef. I have the best recipe for waffles that are truly delicious AND any lazy chefs dream; its all done in one bowl, with ingredients everyone has in their kitchen. Literally foolproof and delicious. Perfect for Christmas morning! Makes anywhere from 8-12 waffles, depending on the size of your waffle iron. Ingredients:  2 cups of All-Purpose flour 1 tablespoon of baking powder 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar 1/4 teaspoon of salt 2 eggs (beaten) 1 teaspoon of vanilla (but you can add another 1/2 teaspoon if you want a stronger vanilla taste!) 1-3/4 cups of milk 1/4 cup vegetable oil Directions:  1) In a big bowl, combine all the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, sugar and salt) 2) Create a well in the center of your dry ingredients and add your wet ingredients 3...

Review: Lush Cynthia Sylvia Stout Shampoo

Hello there! So I've been on the hunt for a shampoo to tame my wild hair for ages, so I picked up this during my recent Lush visit  in hopes that it would help with my thick, coarse, dry hair. According to Lush , this has: Stout to calm:  For all hair types but especially beneficial for fluffy, hard-to-manage hair. Friend to all scalps:  Yeast improves the health of the hair and scalp. For a polished finish:  Organic lemon juice is a gentle cleanser that adds masses of shine and gloss. After using this for a little while now, I can say that I'm pretty much still on the fence about it.  Pros:  Though my hair is still a little frizzy, its definitely a bit better than it used to be. My hair is also softer to the touch and shinier.  Cons: I've noticed my hair gets greasier a lot quicker since using this shampoo. I also feel as though it may be drying out my scalp, but it'll take a little more time to know for sure if its because of th...
