 I first came across The Ordinary product 2 years ago randomly on YouTube. Recently, I had a skin consultation at Skin Laundry in Marina. The Beautician recommended some Skin Laundry products. After using the products, I noticed an instant improvement on my skin. The products were super pricey, so I went online trying to find a good brand which was cost effective. My search led me to The Ordinary. I wanted something with Hyaluronic acid, Vitamin C and Retinol, which were some of the ingredients in the Skin Laundry products. I started with The Ordinary toner, Hyaluronic acid, Vitamin C, Retinol, Lactic acid. So far, the products have been working well except the Lactic acid i had to discontinue because the top of my nose itches me whenever I use it. Overall, I would recommend the brand. Their products are effective and super affordable. 

  This is my first travel outside the UAE, since the pandemic and lockdown. I have been longing to be on a plane. The choice was between Baku, Tbilisi and Yereven. After much consideration, I settled for Baku.  I didn't want to stress myself about booking a hotel and flights. So I went for a holiday package with a very popular tourism company in UAE, called Holiday Factory. My stay was booked for 14 days and it was super affordable.  I flew from Sharjah International Airport on Air Arabia to Hayder Aliyev Airport, Baku. The journey was approximately 3 hours and it was a smooth flight. Passport control was a simple process and I got a visa-on arrival stamp for  Nigerian passport holders with a UAE residency. The immigration personnel were warm and cordial and it gave me a sense of welcome. I often say you can determine how the people of a new place will treat you depending the attitude of officials at the point of entry. Hayder Aliyev Airport is beautiful, clean, well maintained and

    This is one topic I like to talk about. Personal hygiene is a big deal for me. Body odour is like a stigma. When you smell so bad, people would not want to be around you. It can be so embarrassing that your close friends are just not bold enough to tell you how bad you smell.  There are several reasons why people smell bad. It could be excessive sweating, diet, lack of proper personal hygiene or genetics. If you fall in the last category and still have bad odour, then it's time to see a doctor. Most people may have no idea that their personal scent doesn't smell good.
