2016: The Things I Am Thankful For

Graphic: Things I am thankful for


I am really sorry for the long break in transmission..... To be really honest it has been a rough year I won't lie. 2016 has been the worst year of my life but the good news is that I made it, my family scaled through and it wasn't easy but it was worth it.

The year is almost coming to an end, I look back to how it started and I always burst with so many emotions and i am so grateful for so many things which i'm about to share with you all.

                 I am thankful for.......

 1. My Family
This year was really a disappointing year for my family starting from the beginning of the year till October, it was really sad, we almost lost our mum twice and I thank God we fought it through, we had each other through it all, we are seeing the end of 2016 together and am really grateful for that.

2. My Life and Health
During my stay in the hospital with my mum, I saw the way people died around both old and young and I looked back to all the things I took for granted. I really feel so bad for all the times I complained and groaned without realizing there were people going through worst situations. I just want to thank God for life.

3. My Career/ Goal
The second best thing that did put a smile on my face this year was my bag making, even though I didn't start up the business this year like I planned to, I am still thankful that I finished this task without any problem and i am hopeful that I will surely get back on my feet real soon.

4. My Friends
These priceless people were always there to listen to my complaints and helped wipe my tears, they prayed for me and encouraged me, I am truly grateful to be blessed with such people who were there at the time of my need.

5. My Wonderful Readers
Ever since I started this blog, I never kept up with my schedule but you all are always patient with me, visiting, sharing and dropping your comments, am so grateful and I just want to say THANK YOU!!!

What are you thankful for? Happy holidays 😘🎅

Review: Virony Sanitary Pad

I used Virony for the first time yesterday and I ain't looking back. Few weeks ago, my friends told me about Virony pad which I was scared to get at first because of my fear of switching sanitary pads but the reviews and praises I got about it made me change my mind. Well, here I am too, dropping my praises about Virony.  Product Name: Virony Smart Lady Pad Company Promises Absorbs 60% faster Extended wings to prevent leak My Experiences  I love the feminine look and packaging, the fact that the pack can be reused as a makeup or storage bag makes me love it even more. Comes with 30 pieces in a pack (18 days, 7 nights and 5 pant liners) you will notice the difference in sizes.  It has a light and dry feel, no bulge or feels heavy when being worn and there is this minty feeling you experience down there ☻ It is perfect for heavy and light flows and does not leak or tear. My friends who experiences rashes with previous sanitary products swore that they did

Empty State Design - Meaning & Importance.

Empty State - Mobile Version Empty states are what users see when there is no information displayed on the mobile or web screen. In summary, these are screens with little or no content on them depending on the situation, and examples of the situations are: 404 errors  Empty email inboxes  Empty checkout cart  Connection issues  The user has only just signed up Getting no results when you make searches  There are other situations that can also be placed as empty states but the most important thing is for these pages to be as engaging as possible.  Empty states are very important in UX Design but are often overlooked by designers that find them as non-essential screens that do not need attention.

Review: Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation

SHADE: 60 Caramel Getting the right foundation for my skin has always been a problem for me, it’s been either fake products which I talked about on this post  or the products don’t meet my needs. I hade to make an intense search online and found a video from a makeup blogger who mentioned that the Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse was her favorite foundation for oily skin. I eventually got this foundation and here is a review of my experience using it.  The Company Information & Promises •  SPF 15 • Matte Perfect Foundation  • Light Weight Feel  My Experiences •  Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse is a light weight foundation with a light to medium coverage • It blends in easily easily and smoothly. • It gives a matte finish but lasted for only about 2-3 hours for me so I had to repowder throughout the day. • It had white undertones after I apply it and I had to buy the Mary Kay Timewise to blend with it whenever I use. • I couldn’t wear it on hot or sunny days
