A beauty detour

Hello, and welcome back to abeautydetour. We have been here since 2015 but unfortunately in the beginning of the year the blog got deleted and all the data worth 5-6 years was lost just like that. So, instead of sulking I picked up from the dead ashes of my blog and we are back again.

With bigger better plans. And in case you don’t know me then here we go :

I’m Saman (30 something) a beauty/lifestyle content creator.

A mother of two (a girl and a boy)

I love creativity, be it in any form, it gets me distracted and hence we take a lot of detours here.

I have developed my love of beauty/skincare watching innumerable youtube videos since 2007 and in pursuit of justifying my purchases I started this blog.

I love sharing product reviews and help anyone in need of skincare/makeup product recommendations, I go into deep lengths to help and explain so you never have to fall into the gimmick of ever changing/evolving beauty world.

I’d love for you to follow along my journey on instagram and lets be friends 🙂

Meet Saman

Hi, I'm so glad you are here. I'm a fickle minded who gets distracted by creativity every step of the way. And in pursuit of beauty we take a lot of detours. Mother of two I prefer a beauty routine that is minimal yet makes me feel pretty.

Swipe ➡️ to see the before! . When we moved in, these hollow shelves were so annoying and I kept thinking how can I use the space ! But one thing I learned over the period of time is that you can make any house/apartment your home after you start living in and understand the rhythm and flow of the place. Its always better to start with little to nothing, before going in for the ambiance-decor that really makes you feel cozy and at home! Creating mood boards for starters is the best place to begin, understand what style you like the most instead of randomly picking everything you like in the Store. It can get overwhelming in the beginning, empty walls might scream at you, yearning to be decked up, but its all worth the time ! . . #myhyggehome #mynaturalabode #inspiremeneutral #mycrumbshome #smallkitchenfindsolutions #kitchenorganization #neutralpalette #neutralhome #neutralhomedecor #hmhomevase #hmhomeaddicts #woodandgrey

@strivectin #strivectingiftedme Let’s talk about retinol, do you really need it? If you think you are aging and you need retinol then you are wrong, age is just a number, what you really need is what addresses your skin concern! Rather than blindly jumping on the latest bandwagons. Figure out what your skin needs, and target those issues. As for Retinol, it is great and helps in addressing wrinkles and skin aging issues, helps Acne prone skin and also helps with discoloration. But if your skin needs exfoliation then retinol is not for you. As for this product from StirVectin, I have been using it for a few weeks and waited until the last min to post this review. Even though it’ is a moisturizing retinol it isn’t as effective as if should be, given the price tag. Guess I would have to use it for a really long time to see results. It absorbs quickly without feeling greasy or oil, doesn’t irritate the skin, and nourishes well. And then it stops right there, if you are looking for a retinol then a small tube costing $120 is really not worth it. . . . . #octolyfamily #unboxingbeauty_strivectin #retinoltreatment #glowingskin #skincare #skincareroutine #skincarecommunity #skincarereview #otcretinol #arnightlymoisturizer #strivectin #
