Henna stickers

Hello guys! well if you know me you know how much I LOVE HENNA! unfortunately , I cant get an Arab henna designer where I live so I decided to have some henna stickers be sent to me from Morocco and UAE. I was curious to try it, and so I did.

so this are the stickers I have, as you know I am reaaaaallllyyy in love with khaleeji henna designs, and I CANT WAIT to get a 100 pure khaliji henna (from a khaleeji girl) next time im in Dubai, untill then I will just keep getting what I like to call the "fake" khaleeji henna LOL. 

 First and most I made sure to wash my hands very well, to get rid of the oils and stuff like that to make sure the henna stains well and lasts longer as well!

 I than applied the desired sticker, I put the part thats suppose to be in the middle on the end of my hand going down from my pinky to get more of a khaleeji henna look :D

 I used a henna needle, in Morocco the henna designers use needles instead of the henna cone. the needles are much harder, but that is what I had so I used it to fill in the sticker

 and thats all, I waited until it dried and used a blow dryer to help it dry faster, and than peeled it off when it was completely dried!

Moroccan ghassoul for the body!

Hello dolls! so today I want to talk about moroccan ghasoul, I talked about this a few months ago but it was for facials only! today I have PURE mudd moroccan ghassoul straight from the Morocco and its for the body. This can be purchased at any Moroccan hamam (in morocco) or at the Attar (the herp man in morocco). 

 and this is what it looks like on the inside, they are just like mud rocks.

 each one is different size, you can take as many as you like, it all depends on how much ghassoul paste you want. for me here I only took one to show you guys how its done.

 I than mixed it with warm water, and it dissolves and mixes with the water

 You can use a spoon, a tool or simply your fingers and mix it around to make it easier, dont put too much water because you would rather have it be thick paste than all watery, when its completely dissolved and you find it to be too thick and you dont like that you can add little water! remember its better thick than watery! also, less is always more :D

You then take the ghassoul paste and apply it to your body, leave it there untill it is completely dry and hard, and than wash it off! enjoy the softness and how clean your skin will look and feel :D

Moroccan food

Hello dolls! today I want to share with all of you some of the pictures of Moroccan food (my mom's). I really love Moroccan food, it is what I grew up with and its GREAT! people always ask me about Moroccan food especially since the Moroccan restaurant that are in America seemed to be popular and are amongst the top restaurant. so people are always wondering (that haven't been to a Moroccan restaurant) what do we really cook. well Moroccan food tend to have a lot of different spices and different tastes, not really all spicy like some of the other Arabic or Indian dishes, but they have a really tasty taste hehe. Also the way the dishes are presented are very important, if you have company over it is a must for you to bring out your best dish ware, spoons and even the cup and bottle that you serve water in. enough talking here are some photos from our new year dinner,

first, always comes the Moroccan salad, its usually a lot neater, but pretty much the rise or what ever goes in the middle and things go around it on top of lettuce in a pattern. than comes the second dish, in this case we had pastilla which is SO GOOD, there are different kinds of pastila, pretty much its a thin crust and its filled with stuff on the inside, there is chicken pastila which is usually on the sweet side, in this case we had seafood pastilla, it contained things like shrimp seafood the whole deal and of course the "sha3riya" which I cant think of what its called in English same goes for the chicken one it has the sha3riya, our third dish was meat and barqooq, its sooo tasty and yummy and you eat it with home made warm Moroccan bread. after all these comes the dessert, in morocco dessert is the fruits, literally that people sometimes refer to fruit as dessert. like if they're eating fruit even if its not after a meal they would say we are eating dessert. if i tell them in American dessert is like ice cream or cake they are like "WHATTTTTT" lol I hope you guys enjoyed and learned more about my culture <3
