Things I ❤ for Fall that are Non Materialistic

Fall is my favorite season because it's just that perfect mix of warm and cool but not too cold as winter and neither too hot as summer. Moreover, what's not to like about fall colors, Halloween candy, Thanksgiving, and anticipating the winter holidays? 


Unfortunately, wherever I look at social media there is all this materialistic love for fall that is commercialized and sold as a dream filled with all the things you apparently need to own to enjoy the season. So I have decided to do a post to remind everyone that Fall is a wonderful season that offers many opportunities to enjoy life without being materialistic. Here are some things to love about fall that are not related to money or possessions:
  • The changing colors of the leaves and the crisp air that make nature more beautiful and refreshing.
  • The cozy feeling of wearing warm clothes, drinking hot beverages, and snuggling under blankets.
  • The festive mood of celebrating holidays like Halloween and Thanksgiving with family and friends.
  • The fun activities like carving pumpkins, baking pies, going on hay rides, and visiting corn mazes.
  • The gratitude for the harvest and the simple pleasures of life.
  • The smell of wood smoke and cinnamon in the air.
  • The opportunity to read a good book by the fireplace or watch a classic movie on the couch.
  • The excitement of dressing up in costumes and trick-or-treating on Halloween night.
  • The satisfaction of raking leaves into a pile and jumping into them.
  • The joy of giving thanks and sharing a delicious meal with loved ones on Thanksgiving day.
These are just some of the things that make Fall a special time of the year. I hope this list inspires you to appreciate the beauty and wonder of the season. What are some of the things that you love about Fall? Do you have a favorite activity or tradition? Let me know in the comments below.

Some Recent Regret Buys

In my opinion, it's not ethical blogging if we're only featuring the good and not talking about some bad products because let's face it, there are a lot of crappy products out there. And when we're not talking about them we're withholding important information and we're not being fair to our readers. In fact, it means we're being fairer to brands. It's fine if people want to earn some money through brand deals but it's really not worth it to become a sell-out. Some might say why bother writing about bad products, why not just let them be, but I want to put the word out there about bad products too because I want to help people like me save some money. Please note that when I say "bad products" it means "products that have not worked for me". However, these products might have worked very well for some others because each of us has different skin types and tolerance for products and it's totally OK. In the past few months, I t...

April 2012 Favorites and Regrets

I can't believe April has already come to an end. I can't say I'm sorry either because this means less rain, more blossoms, and summer in another month.  So without further ado, I present to you this month's beauty and makeup favorites.  As you can see there are quite a few things I've been liking this month. The list of all things beauty I've been loving/using frequently are: (in left to right order) Aussie Instant Freeze Hair Spray Extreme Hold : This product is just wow. The windy city can be brutal to hair especially when left open and this product is really a blessing. It gives a good hold without adding too much cast to the hair. You can build it up and get stronger hold if that is what you need.  It's easy to use and smells great. It's not too expensive and comes in a huge bottle. Clairol Herbal Essences Hydralicious Reconditioning Conditioner : I love this conditioner and this is a product worth repurchasing. I only wish they would put it in ...

I Got Influenced and Wasted my Money on These 15 Hyped Products

 Influencer marketing has been there forever but with more online social media platforms it has become even more crazier since the 2010s. This type of marketing trend has its good sides as we get to know about a lot of things that are introduced into the market while sitting at home. So there is no worry of missing out on anything that is good. But it is also sometimes misleading/misinforming which can not only make us waste money on worthless products but also mistrust influencers as a whole.  This post is going to be only about beauty (skincare/haircare/makeup) products that I wasted my money on. It does not mean that I mistrust influencers or that I am not going to follow influencers anymore. I have also benefited in many ways from influencers so this is not a hateful post. I only want to convey through this post that it is important to use our own judgment and not blindly follow what somebody is recommending just because they seem likable, genuine, or convincing on camera....
