I know it is Ramadan, you're cooking afur and running to the masjid for taraweh and qiyam. But remember Eid comes with many gatherings and festivities you can't show up adigu rafaadsan ama kala daadsan. The aunties will not approve of dull skin and dry hair ama cago cad cad. The following beauty tips will have you Eid ready without having to hit the spa.

Hair: Mash 1 whole avocado, add 4 egg yolks ( might need more/less depending on hair length), a lil bit of coconut oil. Mix well until smooth, section hair into parts apply hair mask. Go about doing your chores. Shampoo, condition as usual air dry hair ( so it doesn't stink) and put hair into bantu knots.

Face: Mix keshda (heavy cream), oat meal, huruud and honey in a bowl. Let it sit til the oat meal becomes mushy. Put this on your face before you get in the kitchen to make afur. When mask is dry, wet cotton pad with rosewater and remove mask in an upward motion, don't pull skin down (will make ur face droopy) * If you don't have rosewater 3aadi just use lukewarm water* Save any leftover face mask in a container and put it in the fridge and apply the next day!

Body: After frying sambuus, you stink and need a shower, so mix plain yoghurt, huruud, qasil and brown sugar, steam your skin a little in the shower, apply body mask scrub using a bath mitt. If you don't have one ...get one ASAP!

I use the same kind of hair treatments for my hair...I recently started using deep condition and mixing it with hair mayonnaise, eggs and olive oil and I swear It's like magic! I love it

I went to Sephora today and bought a concealer and powder. I heard good things about Nars concealer so I bought that and I bought sephoras very own powder foundation cause it matched with my skin tone and it looked great when the lady tried it on me.

If you're into concealers, try nars! It's 29 dollars from Sephora and online should be the same prize but I have nothing but good things to say about it!

Any tips for guys

You can do the face and body mask if you are up for it. Invest in good 3uud and apply it after you shower so you can stay smelling good all day long.
