As raindrops gradually started hitting the ground, panic crossed over me. I wiped the lens, ran back to my spot, hit the shutter through remote control, slid my phone away along the side of the wall, posed and waited for the ten-second countdown to end. Phew! Shirt – High Low Striped Embroidered Loose Shirt from Zaful* I have been trying to be more productive than ever right now and even…
L’Oreal Pure Clay Detox And Brighten Mask Review
Not long ago, L’Oreal took over the beauty scene by launching three Pure Clay masks that soon became every beauty guru’s favourites! My Instagram was plastered with photos of people “multi-masking” with L’Oreal Detoxifying, Mattifying, and Exfoliating masks. I don’t just jump on the bandwagon, you know.

So obviously, what better time to read a romantic comedy as a Karachiite, eh?…
