Salaam lovelies hope you're all well. As you may know if you follow me on Instagram that I was so excited to receive this box, that I left the link to their blog on the night before and when I woke up the first thing I done was obviously purchase this box. Yup I'm one of those people who don't take chances of things getting sold out. Im a great fan of YouTube and I always watch videos of box hauls, but when I see those £'s I know it's a nono. The hayaabox is a monthly subscription where you receive a scarf and accessories and it's always something new. Okay people this is my ultimate Favourite item in the whole box and it's a cold cream. Oh my gosh how did I survive without it. Seriously I've been using this product for about 3 weeks and my skin is supple, soft and my blemishes are fading. You can use this cold cream as a cleanser, mask, moisturizer and even a serum(@vintagebeautysa). Above is a perfect everyday outfit and turban style using the scarf from the box. The scarf is a cotton material and is great for styling in many different ways and is simply perfect shade for any outfit. The hijab boarder under cap is great to wear under your turban so no flyaways will be seen or even let it show if you're fierce enough.

Salaam hope you're all well. Yup it's time to start looking for Eid outfits yet again. I don't know if it's only me but I do get hyped up to go on shopping trips and all that jazz. So I decided why not show you guys some outfits and abayahs. The picture above was my moms outfit last Eid. The outfit has a very elegant touch with the shoes and the Abayah is a very unique style which I love. The abayahs intricate sewn style and simple flower pattern adds to its elegance and beauty. This Abayah was bought from my favorite Abayah shop "Leila Couture" in Fordsburg. This shop sells everything from undercaps to abayahs and evening dresses. The shoes are from non other than Melisa and can be purchased from Stuttafords or even their website. I suggest getting a size bigger since they have small sizes. Okay I'm seriously obsessed with costume jewelry since I always loose my jewelry and my favorite shop to purchase these are Klines or Accesorise. Since the dress was simple and not over beaded as well as the simple black Madam la Arab scarf from Bling By Binte(Instagram: blingbybinte) I thought of an Arab makeup look. With a really intense eye makeup and than a simple nude lip topped of the look. These eyelashes just looked gorgeous and for the best quality I suggest buying Huda beauty lashes or Mac ones. I hope this helps you guys out don't forget to comment and follow me on Instagram @aaliyahs__closet xoxo Aaliyah Salaam hope you're all well! Do you always have to iron you're scarves before wearing them or when you're in a hurry have to wear a basic black scarf with every outfit because you cannot seem to find one that matches. These easy storage ideas will insure an organized and easily accessible scarf storage system. ..This is the easiest and cheapest method that takes up minimal closet space. Things you'll need: - strong hanger (plastic world) -curtain hooks -super glue or tape(preferably clear or white) -scissors How to assemble: -place on row of shower curtain hooks along the hanger and tape together or glue together -when starting a new row add 1 less hook; this ensures that all the scarves will be seen. These pant hangers are a great investment to buy good quality ones since they ensure a neat and very organized storage system. One will most probably find them at boardmans or even Makro for cheaper price.
You basically fold you're scarve length wise in half and if you have a maxi hijab I suggest four times. Then simply hang it over with the excess material tucked behind. Hope this helped you out please leave I comment and follow me on insta for outfit pictures. xoxo aaliyahs__closet Hey all closet fashionistas I've been a way for a while because of Ramadan and Eid. Hope you all had a memorable Ramadhaan and an enjoyable Eid. Today I've got some gift ideas which you could use for Bakri eid, birthdays or even get well soon gift. Lush is my all time favorite beauty shop since its natural and cruelty free. Their products are of good quality and look tumblr "AF". I got this box as a gift from the UK and I've seen it last weekend at lush at Rosebank and I thought maybe you fashionistas would be interested in this gorgeous gift box. The packaging is totally instagramable and I didn't want to open it. The items you get inside at a price of +/- R400.00 are: Yummy there goes my tummy jam toast ok maybe not but my eyes are being deceived by this gloopy jelly like substance and my nose smells this delicate smell of roses swarming through the air. My skin is ever so soft like I used bath oils and I smell like a bouquet of roses. Rose bath bomb oh yes how to describe it. Well it's like swimming in a pool of roses but at the same time feels like a cloud of marshmallows and I fell totally bartered.
Do you need an update in you're makeup bag and looking for more intricate makeup looks. Avon is a great brand with best quality and packaged products. They have a line of makeup, perfume, hair products and skin care. All makeup lovers will love this makeup that stays all day and works 100 times better than drugstore makeup. I have to say I love their concealer. It's liquid and full coverage and blends amazingly just by using your index finger alone. Their range of different colors is extraordinary and you'll sure get a perfect match. Their cc cream matches my skin perfectly and has a flawless finish. It's light wear but full coverage and gives one a flawless full face. When paired with concealer not a blemish will show and the coverage masks any cakeness and one will think it's skin. The bronzing trio is amazing! The contour color fits any skin color and blends very easily. You'll be left with a sculpted summer glowy face. But my biggest hype is their highlighter above. It shines without sunlight rays but when the sunlight hits it a radiant light beams back of your cheekbones. I prefer putting highlighter on my cheekbones, nose tip, cuspids bone and a bit on my chin. If you have dull skin this will be perfect to give the impression of healthy skin. The dreamy eyeshadow in gold has the perfect color with shimmer in. A shade between white and rose gold. Waterproof of it is a big bonus and looks so elegant and can match any outfit. Becaus of the glitter in the eyeshadow one could always use it as a highlighter and get away with swimming and still having that beautiful glow.
avon is a great brand I suggest you find an agent near you!

There are many shops that sell imported sweets, food and many more from Turkey. The Turkish cuisine is to die for with the unique flavor and dishes. Dont forget to wear decent clothing and a headscarf if you're a lady. I suggest you bring a camera and wear a beautiful outfit for the most beautiful pictures. This mosque is great for events and I attended a wedding here. Which was ever so beautiful and the hall so pretty. What I'm wearing: -scarf: Kashkah -jersey: Factorie -jeans: Forever 21 -shoes are wore outside: addidas super star xoxo aaliyahscloset
Follow me on Instagram @ aaliyahs__closet I have had a major skin journey I used to have a lot of frequent breakouts on my forehead and temples. My doctor than put me on oratane acne tablets(make sure to consult you're doctor or dermatologist first). I was prescribed a four course but I only finished the first course because of the major side effects. I would say that the results out balanced the side effects since I have a soft, acne free and glowy skin. After the oratane medication about a month later I began to take number 12 mineral salts. Which help with skin cleansing, collagen boost etc. The salts I take are the same as this name and one can purchase this at dischem. This is a holy grail product my utmost favorite skin cleanser. What I love about this product is that it does what it says. You're face will literally be blemish free most of the time and dark marks will fair within one completion of the bottle. I also love the scent and the fresh smell it gives to my skin. .......... The body shop tea tree face mask is just aaaah! Amazing I tell you. Use this mask once a week and I garuntee you you won't see a pesty blemish on you're skin all week. Body shop I love you're products. Tgis is the toner I use, I would say that it's great for youthful and normal skin. Since it's not too drying it's just perfect especially for sensitive skin.(purchased at clicks) Youve probably heard the hype of this product many times. But I have a story behind this, so I'm not allowed to try beauty hacks from YouTube (another story for another day), but I actually purchased this coconut oil for a science project and there were left overs. Then I first tried it out on my curly dry hair and the results were only luscious. There after I tried it on my eyelashes and eyebrows and oh my gosh! On fleek I tell you. Yes we all do winged liner, now now don't be shy I know you try to do it five times every morning but it's just a flop. Now this is the perfect thing to apply to remove any makeup and moisturizing you're skin at the same time. Thats all for now
xoxo Aaliyahs closet Are you one of those people who watch many YouTube makeup tutorials but when you want to try them out you cannot afford those expensive makeup brands.
Essence is a great makeup dupe especially their mascaras. Which give you those oh so curled lashes or fake eyelash look. You could also buy their fake lashes which are great in my opinion. The give me brow ensures eyebrows on fleek and those stubborn hairs won't move a bit even if you're in a windy palace like Cape Town. If you're a beginner at winged eyeliner I've got y'all. Their winged eyeliner pen has a tip like a marker, so you'll have a steady hand and be able to make a wing so short you'll fly right to jannah. Contour you're face for model perfect look with their cotour or bronzer for a more natural look. Contouring in winter is a must if you have pale skin or even if you have olive skin it brings out the undertones in your skin. Hilighter! Yup I was gonna put three exclamation marks but because of English ... Anyway when that sunlight hits you're high points of you're face you need to look like an angel, right? This highlighter is extremely glowy and you'll definitely get a dewy finish. The great thing about essence makeup is that it's cheap but it has quality and will last all day long. xoxo Aaliyah Hi y'all I'm Aaliyah just a seventeen year old girl who loves fashion,food and travel.
