It’s no secret that the Dead Sea is world famous for its healing power. Some visit to cure psoriasis and others, like celebrities go because the black mud is supposedly amazing for skin…or they just want to roll in the mud and pose for selfies. Side note, when is the selfie trend going to die?! But …
Hello November and yes, I will start this post with the cliche line “Can you believe we’re already in November?”. I catch myself saying how quickly this year flew by a lot and I will say it again, 2018 seemed to slip through my fingers and I have little recollection of the year. November brings the cold, miserable weather …
It is no secret that I suffer from dry skin and on some days which is usually one too many, I suffer from very dry skin. Dry patches around my nose and eye areas are well documented in the House of Platt. I have lost count how many times hubby dearest has caught me prodding …
I could hear you say “Goodness Shireen, you’re sooo behind time!” while giving me the side eye. Yes, I am way behind time but unlike many beauty writers, I am not trendy nor am I fashion savvy and I certainly do not have a huge budget to spend on products that I will never use. …

I still surf Sephora, Beautylish and Cult Beauty every day but nothing seems …
ipsy has been the one subscription that I have long wanted ever since I first started reading beauty blogs. Back then when I was living in Malaysia, I often went ‘ooo…‘ and ‘ahhh…‘ whenever a blogger wrote about her ipsy Glam bag. So it would come as no surprise that I was quick to sign up for it …
Today we are going to get a little serious and approach a different subject. Since most of my readers are women, I will be talking about us ladies stuff…to be more precise, the importance of educating ourselves about the feminine care that we use during that time of the month. Through Veeda, I found out that …
It’s been some time since I last posted a get ready with me post. Quite frankly, my routine for both skincare and makeup have been relatively simple…well, so simple that I didn’t think they are worth writing about. But with the spirit of love and celebration in the air, what better time than now to share my date …
If there is one thing that I am very proud of, it would be how good and dedicated I am with my body care routine. I shower with a loofah for mild exfoliation and moisturize my skin either with body lotion, cream, butter or oil every day and use either a physical or acid exfoliator …
