They look beautiful and the the wooden artwork are so
Stunning

My sister brought a silver one made out of metal from another site I think they returned it in the end because it was a hassle putting it up and required so many screws

it was a lovely piece and would have made the room like nice

I feel like if I had a house that I owned I would get one. I worry about moving all the time and they seem too big to transport. I also worry about custom fees. They are expensive enough as it is, I don't want to end up paying double the price just to receive it

One day inshallah.

I really want to get into collecting art.

I found these gorgeous islamic art pieces that I want to get at some point in my life.

I think this one artist only sells prints so that will be pretty easy to get but the other place I am looking at is a future dream but its gorgeous and I would love to hang their stuff in my house.

This artist makes art pieces that are inspired by ayats in the Quran and I am trying to recreate her painting of masjid al aqsa but the amount of detail in it is mashallah, incredible.

https://mxrixhapaints.com (this is her website if anyone is interested cause its very beautiful and appropriate art)

this is the other place I am looking at that I can only dream about now but one day inshallah I will get one of the big ones. https://mahajati.com

I went pound shop
​​​​​​I saw the bourjois lipstick but they didn't have the colour I wanted. They had the colours that aren't popular such as bright blue and grey, there were other make up brands. I could see one product separating which means it has expired so it should have been taken off.

Felt like I was doing quality checks.

I checked the toothbrush I got today for my wisdom teeth, I have two, one at the top and one at the bottom

Wonderful

​​​​​​It's the wrong brush for it though, it's for dentures
It says 'wisdom' in big letters but it's the name of the company not the brush, lmso

I could have returned it because I haven't opened it yet but no way am I going back in there, it was just a bit awkward with the pharmacist :/

Do my make someone.

I was surprised myself ...never knew they did bogof on make up ...saw it around 10pm and the offer was ending at midnight lol

I've tried the nyx lipstick on the back of my hand, looks brighter than I expected ....i think i can pull it off with a brown lip liner underneath.

Right lets put all my new makeup away with the rest to collect dust!

I was complimented when I wore that lipstick

At first I thought it's not what I'm used to but I think it does add a good change

I used a nude lipliner when applying that lipstick

I need to start wearing some of these make up again.

What buy one get one free? Why didn't you tell me

I mean obviously like I'm on a budget and don't need it in my life but just wondering

Let me know what you think about the lipstick

What do you think of huda beauty makeup?

Looks nice, do you use them and which ones would you recommend?
I don't own any because I steer away from the higher end make up as I hardly use the make up I buy, so it seems even more wasteful for me to purchase the expensive stuff.

​​​​​​Unless it is a very special occasion and I know I will use the product more than once, I may invest.

Otherwise, I'm happy to buy the less expensive and use it when needed but throw it away if it expires.

I haven't had a clear out yet because some of it has only been used once.

Same I think that would be a nice change to make. It’s way easier here but you should look into some of these Instagram businesses, they probably ship internationally. There are a ton of them here.

I've looked into buying hijab before but might start searching on there for other goods.

That's alright then at least now you know it's not a fake comany
Hard to tell with these random companies online

I'd like to start buying from Muslim owned companies

This place actually ended up being great. I'm so shocked at how nice the stuff I got was.

...so I broke my no make-up buying streak after yesterday's buy one get one free on make on the Boots site.
I went there initially to look up the nyx lipstick Ya'sin posted in this thread ....and then got carried away...

So urmmm ...Ya'sin I blame you

I kept getting these ads on instagram for these nonslip yoga socks that looked so cute but I didn't want to bother paying for the shipping and their other stuff seemed to expensive to take a risk on. But then I saw they has this flash sale where some of their tights were $9 so I decided to get some and the socks. But now I'm worried. I don't like to buy things unnecessarily and I fear that they aren't going to fit.

I know my measurements and I checked the size guide and got what matched it but I started looking at the reviews and they all seemed weirdly overwhelmingly positive, which doesn't sound like a big issue but hear me out. I looked for company reviews online and I couldn't find anything! Its like it doesn't even exist. And then I looked on their Facebook page and it has like 40000+ likes but their actual posts only have like 10 likes max and barely any comments.

That just makes me think that they probably bought followers and reviews for their website. I can tell which reviews are real and which are fake honestly. and the real ones where still positive but now I'm worried that their stuff might not be true to size and I would have spent money on something that docent fit

Only time will tell
