I wake up every morning, grab a glass of lukewarm water, to which I add a tablespoon of pure honey (prophetic medicine, yeah!) I put on a face pack made of chick pea flour (recipe coming up soon) to cleanse my skin thoroughly...Oh wait, that was me when I had time. In a not so distant past, before I became a wife!
Now I believe every wife should have a beauty routine; even if she picks ingredients from her kitchen shelf. All the better, olive oil is a great moisturizer and honey is a good antiseptic, minus the ingredients which you can find in ready made beauty products which may not be permissible for Muslims.)
Every woman owes herself some care. Especially if you are a wife. There is no harm in getting on with your housework while being properly decked up. It gives me confidence and makes me feel good about myself if I use a wee bit of make up in the morning, before I start a busy day.
As I only got busier over the last few years, I now find it more convenient to use a Freeman Pear Refining Cleanser every morning (great to get rid of excess shine and grime), and the Freeman Apricot Creamy Facial Scrub (3 to 4 times a week if I'm out a lot.) Other than that, I do use make up at home (but that's for another post, hehe!)
Verily, Allah is beautiful, and He loves beauty.
Indeed, Allah "created man of the best stature (mould)" [ The Holy Qur'aan, Chapter At Tin, Verse 4]
He created you beautiful, so grab on means He provided you with to make yourself pleasing to you and to your loved ones to whom your beauty can be unveiled! It is a way of thanking Allah too!:)
But hey, what's your beauty routine?
