WEEKEND READ | HERE’S HOW YOU ‘MAKE’ YOUR SATURDAY BY DOING ‘NOTHING’

Here comes another Saturday and if you are amongst the ones who stay unplanned and spontaneous about the weekend plans or you have made your mind to be a home baby this Saturday then you’ve landed at the very right place. We agree, you definitely don’t have to fill every minute of the day, sometimes hopping popcorns while watching absolutely nothing on the TV is also a perfectly normal Saturday thing.

Here we tell you how to enjoy that nothing-ness and still make the best of your day by doing three simple things. Ready?

FIRSTLY, love your skin

Only if you thought chill means going lazy over the to-do things, yes perhaps, but there is no cheat day for your skin. Although talking about a wholesome beauty regimen on a no-work morning may sound unattractive already but believe us, your skin needs it. The stress and mess that you go through during the week start to show on your skin very easily, in fact, five days are enough for those pores to cry for help. And anyway, the most obnoxious, least required sight on a Monday morning would be a pimple on your face (ouch?) Here’s how you can dilute the maximum chances of facing the situation.

Cleanse, Exfoliate, Moisturise | If you’d like a simple, custom-fit routine then nothing more than the Clinique’s 3-step regimen combo would entice you. It comes in five different sets suitable for different skin types, from oily to dry to acne-prone, and comes in three bottles per set including liquid facial soap, clarifying lotion, and a moisturising gel.

Infuse some vitamins into your skin | Vitamin-infused skincare is the buzzing trend so why not bring in some vitamin goodness to your morning and pack a punch to start the weekend with fresh, happy, and supple skin. Check out this handpicked list of vitamin-infused skincare products.

Grandma’s approved products | If you’d like to indulge in a slow and sensory skincare regimen then go for homely products – be it turmeric or peppermint or papaya – and enjoy the comforting benefits of the natural ingredients. To help you not engage in an ubtan making process on a lazy Saturday morning, here’s a list of miraculous skincare products that even your grandma will approve of because your grandma knows it, so do these products!

SECONDLY, feel good about what you wear today

Why should one only dress to head out and not while having the most awaited time of the week – the doing nothing time! If you’re planning to let your day pass in those unthoughtful mix-match T-shirt and shorts, it’s time you do a quick wardrobe scan. Dress up as cute or romantic, remember, how you look is how you feel! To sort your three most possible moods here comes suggestion with three uber swanky Saturday-appropriate looks.

Snuggly pyjama mood | Is staying comfy and cuddly your Saturday mantra? After all, having kept a fashionable foot forward throughout the week, you undoubtedly deserve a day at rest. But to avoid looking sluggish, we suggest wearing vibrant, happy colours which will not only make you look a lot active but feel buoyant too. We love the teal-green tracksuit by ASOS.

Chilling diva mood | If you’re feeling like chilling the whole day but the pyjama looks too forgiving for a diva look then it’s time for some sho(r)ts. We absolutely love these molten-gold velvet shorts by Victoria’s Secret – they’re comfy and glamorous – the best part is that you can dress it up or down as per your mood, choose lacy bralettes or team it up with the scoop neck top.

Designer loungewear mood | Have a leisurely day exploring the traditional sensibilities of Milanese craftsmanship with this utterly-gorgeous silk robe from Prada. Needless to say, that it is a lot more than mere silk robe – embellished with trim feather it’s a sheer delightful pick to feel redolent of the Golden Age of Hollywood.

THIRDLY, plan some rom-com movie time, the typical TV way

Keep your laptop aside, your phones on the charging point, switch on the TV, channel it to Netflix and spare some time for some rom-com movie because why not? Anything that doesn’t make you walk out of the couch seems like a good Saturday evening plan, right? The party-animals need not be offended, you are welcomed to join us in the rom-com theatre too! To save you from the clichés and the mood-spoiler ones, here are the top five movies you got to get your eyes on.
