hello guys of Ramadan Karim this is not how I expected to start my Ramadan Vlogs but I didn't
realize that after this treatment I won't be able to Vlog because my face will be swollen and I
can't put on makeup which means I also can't make it to my author party tonight I'm so bummed out I
didn't realize that like this treatment hasn't put me down for a couple days so I wanted to
Vlog when I got home and share with you guys like kind of my routine of what I'm gonna do starting
the first day and month of Ramadan but that's not gonna happen so if you guys are curious I'm here
at SkinCeuticals I'm getting a micro needling treatment done I actually came in for a hailer
treatment and the esthetician suggested that I do micro needling instead she said my skin is not
as bad as I think it is and that Halo is a little bit too aggressive for me especially right now so
I have a numbing cream on that's why I look crazy also I'm really sorry if this is shaky I'm using
my cell phone to record because clearly I didn't plan this well and I don't have my volume camera
with me with me so I'm gonna just go ahead and do a little recap because I have 25 minutes to sit
here in this lemon cream this morning I woke up first award you guys it was so hard to wake up oh
my God I went to bed at like 12 30 and I woke up at 5am I wanted to go to Starbucks and get coffee
if I didn't have enough time because I just like didn't prepare it well enough so yeah I scarfed
down some Roti and keema if you know you know it's so good I eat that had a date water and that was
pretty much it um it's now at like 2 p.m this is like technically my lunch break I'm working
today from home thank God if I wasn't working from home today I don't know how I would get
anything done because I was so sleepy after Civil War I went back to bed and I woke up at like nine
um so yeah so I'm gonna get this treatment done then I'm gonna go home because I can't go to
my third party which is kind of good I'm gonna just stay home and read some Quran so every year
I tried to finish the Quran I do one just a day like one chapter a day and I'm excited to do that
again this year so I usually read after fudger but because I went to bed I'm gonna have to do
it today so I'm gonna do it let me get home and then I'm also listening to almost like um gender
series oh oh my God I think episode two is out I only listen to episode one my lip is going numb
but it is so good please you guys join me listen to it with me like anytime I see a friend or
family I'm like you guys have to listen to this tell me what you think I want like film feedback
and it's just so exciting to do it with other people so I'm gonna link it down below if you
guys want to join me um also I hope you guys can hear me because I just ranted for three minutes
um but I'm trying to whisper because I am at a clinic and there's some music going on
and yeah and then later today I'm gonna go to that are we I'm a little crazy she said I'm gonna look
really bruised and swollen and sunburned so I'm still gonna go because I want to go I just can't
wear makeup for 48 hours which is why I'm gonna skip my stars she said my face is also going to
be really red and inflamed so um I'm gonna need like a fan so yeah if you're wondering why I'm
doing the skin treatment I have like a lot of like um pores around my nose and then like acne
scarring on my cheek like like ice pick scars so that's what I'm trying to tackle so I'll see
you guys after the treatment okay so it's been several hours since I last picked up my camera
the last time you guys see me at numbing cream on I totally forgot to Vlog like the treatment
and what I look like afterwards I took a couple photos for like my Instagram story and a few like
clips for my Instagram so I'll insert them here but oh my God you guys that was really painful
so the lady was telling me that they recommend having the numbing cream on for about 45 minutes
but I was late to my appointment so I only got 20 minutes of the numbing cream so it hurt a little
bit more and also I just wasn't expecting like all this redness and bruising you can't really
tell on the camera like it's not picking it up because one I'm using my phone still because
both of my cameras are dead I actually bought a new camera just in time for Ramadan so that the
mic would be clear but um yeah it's dead and so yeah I'm using my phone camera and I feel
like it just doesn't pick it up and then also like certain lighting says and pick it up like
okay now you can tell like I am actually bruised like there's scratches and marks all on my face
it's not picking up how red my skin is but it literally looks like a chemical peel like I
got burned yeah I just I honestly can't believe that I'm Vlogging um looking like this I look so
bad I'm literally embarrassed but honestly one of the things that I learned from umrah or one
of the things that I gained from umra was like being confident and just like living without
makeup and living very minimal I don't know how to describe it this sounds silly but it just felt
like myself like I just felt like there was like this Natural Glow in nor that the city was giving
off and I just felt like I don't need makeup to feel pretty so I'm trying to keep those vibes
going even though I don't feel that way right now but anyways I am like now um about to get ready
for set a week also I look extra dead right now because I was literally crying my eyes out while
I was listening to the um gender series from Omer Suleiman if you are not tuned in please I think
I've already mentioned this earlier in the Vlog but please tune in it is so good like if you're
not gonna do anything extra this month in Ramadan at least listen to this playlist that he's putting
together because it literally is inspiring me to do everything in my power to make it to Jenna
um and yeah so I finished that then I read some Quran if I'm being completely honest I'm kind of
struggling with it this year not that I don't want to read it but it's just like going there really
slowly like I don't know if like my Pace has slowed down or what but I'm also not reading at
the best time I feel like after Fajr there's like so much butter in that time and it's like supposed
to read it then I've been reading it at night a lot like today was my first day but I read it at
night and I'm like oh my God this is going by so slowly but inshallah I can do it I encourage you
guys to do it too so anyways I'm gonna um get up and go pray I'll show you guys what I'm wearing or
maybe I'll show you when I'm coming back because I'm actually running really late so I'll see you
guys after that a week just kidding one last thing I'm gonna put on my skincare before I head out
because my skin is so dry so they sent me home with a couple products I got this discoloration
serum supposed to help with all the dark spots on my skin and I was excited about this and then I
purchased this one this is their hyaluronic acid and apparently this is going to be a really good
to layer with serums so I'm going to do that first and then a little bit of this and then
lastly I got a sample of the emulsifier lotion and this is so good it's really really thick if you
have dry skin or compromised skin this is really good and it really like hydrates your skin so I'm
gonna put that on and then I'm gonna go to throwy also I forgot to mention because I vlogged this
for my Tick Tock but I forgot to put it here in this Vlog my Vlog is a little empty today
because my family actually went out to an iftar party my sister kindly invited my family and I
to her husband's restaurant for if Thor and I was literally looking forward to this thorough all day
their birthday at the restaurant is so good and it had looked at the menu and I was like literally
just like waiting for that moment and then I went to my appointment and realized wait a second
I literally cannot go anywhere the esthetician literally told me that she tells all her patients
The First 48 hours there's no social hours because you're gonna be so red and bruised or like so red
and inflamed and I'm like all sucks because I don't like the last thing I want to do is open
your throat alone but yeah that's why my Vlog is so empty and my family is out having like the best
time ever and I ended up just doing doordash I ordered from a local restaurant and honestly the
restaurant that I ordered from is called thyroid game it is for desperate times only it's a hit
or miss like I like it but I don't really like it I like it because it's like nearby and it's
like chicken or rice but like I don't love it but yeah that's my little ramp I just wanted to say
that's why my blog is just like literally me doing everything by myself I'm on my way to that owie I
just called my mom and I was like where are you guys are y'all coming home so we can go together
and she's like oh no we're planning on going somewhere close by after the dinner like after
there I've got a party so I'm like oh well this is great so and now I'm headed to the be alone
as well so it just kind of feels like I'm spending my first Ramadan alone and like my heart goes out
too everyone who spends it alone and doesn't have family because it really does feel really lonely
without like having others to do this with but nonetheless obviously I'm not sad I just I'm feel
like I I just feel like it would have been nice if my sister and my mom was here but yeah I'm pulling
up to the mosque luckily I live like literally five minutes not even like four minutes from the
Masjid so I meant to pull in I'm honestly so tired so I'm probably gonna just like read eight robots
from Sarah we and I'm still using my phone I actually vlogged the entire day using my phone
because my camera is actually dead and I went and got a new like vlogging camera and then my old
um vlogging camera the mic is messed up so oranges I have to deal with this until
tomorrow if I wanted to share what I wore to um prayers I got this Abaya when I was in Medina and
I thought it was so cute I love the color and like the little design on it so this is what I
looked like to darawi I'm actually so exhausted like I feel like I'm gonna fall asleep right now
and I'm so excited to wash my face I have not washed my face all day I don't have any makeup
on it's still like pretty much like all red and whatever but tomorrow will hopefully be a better
day I'll share my support tomorrow with you guys and a little bit more of like a Ramadan Vlog I'll
show you guys what I'm doing to stay productive I'm gonna change and get in bed I hope you guys
enjoyed this Vlog why am I holding my phone it's so weird I'll see you guys tomorrow bye
