I can’t be the only one under impression that it’s still 2013. How cum the New Year started again? Didn’t we step into 2013 just, like, a few days back? In fact not just 2013, the fast forward movement of life in itself is stupefying, and a little bit unsatisfying. Time flies too fast. This makes me realise how important it is to set the priorities in life and ignore or trash out the clutter and trivialities.

Working on it. Right now, to the point – what was the year gone by and what would 2014 bring?

2013 Collage, an year went in iPhone pictures and Instagramming. Packing, unpacking and organising. 2014 will bring in more efforts – go beyond the iPhone camera, must use all items unused tagged or untagged, and follow dreams no matter how unsure they sound – make it work is the mantra.

Happy New Year!!

don’t travel solo…
“you’re married, go with your husband” — We’ve all heard this before… 
but here’s the truth… solo travel hits different.

you reconnect with yourself, travel at your own pace, do things you love {and finally do everything you wanted to but was always pushing it back}, 🍰 eat what you want (all those vegan desserts without anyone watching you ☺️🙃), talk to strangers (a lot), sit alone without feeling weird ….. and somewhere in all that, you meet yourself.

scary? Not at all.
worth it? every single time. ✨

Did you know your fav lipstick may have bug juice 🐞 ? Shocking?
Truth is - most lipsticks in the market contain 
🐞 carmine = crushed cochineal beetles
🐑 lanolin = grease derived from sheep’s wool (waxy greasy substance secreted by sheep’s skin)
🐝 beeswax = bee vomit

Who wants to slather their lips with bug juice? 
☺️ Didn’t think so.

Thankfully, there are plenty of brands doing it right. 💄  I’ve put together a handy list so you can shop vegan lipstick with ease:

👉🏻 #VeganLipstick Brands: 
@violette_fr, @elfcosmetics, @kvdbeauty @milkmakeup, @tower28beauty, @inikaorganic @axiology_beauty, @lilylolouk @rarebeauty, 

👉🏻 Cruelty-Free brands with Vegan options:
🐰 cruelty-free doesn’t mean a product is vegan. It simply means it’s not tested on animals, so be careful. 
@tartecosmetics @rmsbeauty, @doseofcolors (most products are vegan), @charlottetilbury, @glossier @urbandecaycosmetics @nyxcosmetics 

🇮🇳 Vegan Indian makeup brands
@asabeautyindia @kirobeauty @disguisecosmetics @colorchemistry.in @lovechildbymasaba @hyueofficial 

Next time you buy makeup – make sure it’s #crueltyfree and #vegan! And look out for 
- Natural Red 4
- E120
- *CI 75470 (misspelled in video as CI 17470 🙈)
- Carmine or Carmine lake
- Cochineal extract 
- Carminic Acid

👆🏼 they’re all different names of carmine (bug juice)
