How to make your long-distance special person feel special on their birthday

September 13, 2020 6
It was my best friend's birthday last month and I had planned so many special things for her and she loved all of them. So, I thought to share with you all that how you can make your best friend, family member, boyfriend/girlfriend who are in long-distance (or in lockdown) feel special on their birthday. So, let's get started.

A. Gifts

Gifts are something which everyone loves to get from their loved ones, whether it be handcrafted or even ready-made. Here I am sharing few gifts ideas, you can opt for any alternative that you like.

1. DIY Gifts

You can show your creative art and crafting skills in this one. And even if you are not that creative then 'jugaad' would surely help you. I'm sharing one example of it here with you all. 

I've made a DIY gift box out of scrap. 
•Following are the requirements:
I've used the empty box of a skincare product, a lace, a ribbon, some coloured cardboards, beads, etc which were just laying in the store room. I took few printouts of our memorable pictures.
This is how the box was from inside.
PS:  This box is of really good quality, it have some magnet thing for opening/closing of the box. So, there's no point in not saving such boxes of later use. I always save such good quality things.

•PROCEDURE:
1. I started off with writing few notes and short sentences on the cardboard and cutting them according to the sizes I needed.
2. Pasted the cardboard with glue over the box. I also pasted few photographs on the sides of the box.
3. Next, I glued the ribbon on the circumference of the box from front side.
4. After that, I wrote "HBD RANGO" over the box with beads. Decorated with some flower and petals beads on one corner and a layer of brown beads beside the ribbon covering circumference of front cover.
5. Using the glue gun, I sticked one lace on the inner circumference of the box.
6. To fill the box with a little artistic work, I sticked one end of the broad lace in the middle of the box and pasted the hand-written notes and photographs alternatively at a specific distance.
7. And it's done! Yes, it was that simple. A BEST OUT OF WASTE gift which is super easy. I also added some chocolates and few other gifts. You'll get to know more as you read below.

2. Send gifts through online shopping apps.

The internet has made our life so easy, right? You can send gift cards or anything that your loved one needs on their birthday as a gift through various shopping apps like Amazon, myntra, snapdeal, flipkart directly to their address. 
I bought this silver junk jewelery for my friend.

 3. Customized gifts. 

You can order for customised gifts in shops in your city or even their are many companies on social media who can do this work for you. 
Customised gifts like-
1. Photo printed mug
2. Key chain of their name
3. Customised T-shirt
4. Photo printed pillow
5. Customised bracelet or even neckpiece
I got a customised key chain for my friend.
And, she loved it. Now, I added these gifts in the DIY gift box. You can courier the gift or if you'd be meeting soon then give the gift in person, it's always a better option.
This photo printed pillow is just an another example of customised gifts for you people to get some ideas about it. Well, this one belongs to my mother, it's been ages since she's using it. My father gifted this pillow to her back then and you can clearly see that she uses it daily. This is the power of customised gifts lovelies. Such things always stay close to our hearts.♡

B. Make videos

Creating birthday videos is an art. 

1. A creative group video
Plan for a video along with your friends or family. The birthday person feels really really grateful when you surprise them with a group video. There are as many ideas available all over the internet. You can take ideas from YouTube. I'll tell you what I did. I made two videos with my friends.
1. A simple one, holding paper in hands picture of everyone and combining and editing it. I've shared a glimpse of such a beautifully edited video in my IGTV (@hansika.lathi).
2. A dialogue + dance video, like show in the video that if you are having conversation with friends over what to plan and then getting ready by passing certain objects and dance like if you are in a party. So that even if you are not together, it gives a feel of being around each other. 

 2. Some special videos only by yourself
Make few videos which consist of only you and no-one else. You can do as many things you can for this one like a transition video, some dialogues, shayari, poem, songs or anything that you are good at for their birthday. Your person will feel blessed after watching them.


 C. About posts/stories on social media

There's always something you want to post on your social media for your loved ones birthday. Here are few unique ideas which I did.

1. Birthday Bingo Pictures
Bingo was so in trend back then. You can use it for the birthday as well. All you have to do is combine their unusual habits or your memories together in short sentences or words. I've made your work easier. Here is a template for you lovelies.
 I've shared an example in my IGTV. Do check it out. 

 2. Slideshow covering sweet memories
This one is a usual way of posting for birthdays. You can make a slideshow video covering the pictures and videos of your sweet memories easily. Use editing apps like Inshots, kinemaster, etc.

 3. Creative stories
Uploading pictures/video in a creative and unique way shows how creative you are at making an Instagram/Facebook story or whatsapp status. There are many ideas available on the internet but I'll make your work easier. All you've to do is go to my instagram, check out my IGTV and screenshot your favourite birthday story template. I've shared few for you lovelies. (Don't forget to give it a like and follow me there.)


 D. Send sweet messages every hour

Now coming to what you can do on the BirthDAY. You can send them sweet little messages every hour. I know, it's not at all easy to do this but if you are really into it, you got it. Here, I'm sharing few ideas with you guys.

1. Via text/video/photos 
You can convey your message via text or video or edited photos, whatever you find suitable for yourself in which you are good at, you can opt for that option. I preferred video format.

2. Write poetry
If you are good at writing, you can go for poems or shayari.
 
3. Sing their favourite song 
This can be any one or two messages out of the whole day. You can send them audio or video, whatever you choose. It's upto you. 

4. On the exact same minute (can be their birth-date or their age) 
Now, I know how difficult it is to maintain that particular slot of time to convey your message every hour. No one is perfect, so it's totally fine if you get few minutes late to message them. Do not bang on yourself for this. Okay.

5. Secret messages
Send them some secret messages which are just between you two people. It could be anything you always wanted to tell or confess or even any advice or suggestion. Whatever you feel!

All these are just the ideas that I prefer. You can do some other innovative things as well. 


 E. Prepare special food 

You can prepare their favourite food or bake a cake. Though you are away from each other, this could be just an another way of showing that you love them. So get your hands on cooking and show off your cooking skills. You can even learn how to make their favourite dish. 
And don't worry if you are not at all good at it. You can bake a cake with the recipe I'm sharing with you lovelies. It's really simple. 

•INGREDIENTS:
All you need is few packets of any biscuits you have. The amount totally depends on the size of cake you want. Milk, some powdered sugar and baking powder.

•PROCEDURE:
1. Grind the biscuits in the mixer.
2. Take a container to mix the powder of biscuits and milk. Pour milk slowly into the batter while mixing and keep checking the consistency.
3. After getting an appropriate consistency add sugar and baking powder. Mix.
4. Layer a container with ghee/oil on it's surface so that the batter doesn't stick to it. Pour the batter into the container.
5. You can bake it in oven or even in the cooker.
6. You can do some decoration with gems, chocolates or anything edible.

I hope I explained very well. And if you want it with demo then search for it on the YouTube. There are many similar recipes available.

F. Gift of quality time 

Because time is the best gift wecan give to anyone.

1. Video conferencing 
You can do video conferencing including your close friends and family. Have a conversation, cake cutting, some games like housie or play quiz games or even truth or dare. It'll be a real fun. And the birthday person would be so grateful and feel happy about being around you.

2. Play some online games
You can also play some online games like ludo, chess, carrom, pubg. Oops, sorry pubg is banned in India. Anyways, you can play such online games as well.

G. Prank call 

Last but not the least. Make your person laugh harder on his/her day. Make a prank call. You can use voice changing apps, use some another person's phone number to call them. It will be a real fun.

September 05, 2020 6
I've been using few products from RKs Aroma for a long time now and indeed loved them so much. First of all let me inform you that this brand uses all natural aromatic oils as their ingredients to manufacture their products. As I loved using their products, I thought of doing a collaboration and genuinely promote this brand.
I've picked four products of my choice from their website which I wanted to try out. You'll also get an insight into my skincare routine that I'm currently following. 
 I thought to compile my opinion of all the products that I'm using in my skincare routine from this brand called 'RKs Aroma' and talk about the review, ingredients list, cost, how I use them and all that general information. 
Let's get started!

I got my hands on the following five products:

4. Aqua rose water
5. Aloe vera gel

Deyga Organics Products Review : Rose scrub, Rose and mulethi facepack, Rose glow serum, Under eye cream

August 29, 2020 8
When Deyga Organics approached me for collaboration, I went through their profile and found out that this brand uses natural ingredients while manufacturing their products. So, I immediately accepted their proposal & thought to give it a try. 
I went through their website and picked these following four products which were of immediate use to me. I decided to compile my thoughts on all the four products and talk about how I use them, the review and general information like the cost, ingredients, ratings.
So, let's get started.

I got my hands on these four products:
1. Rose scrub
2. Rose and mulethi facepack
3. Rose glow serum
4. Under eye cream

WHAT THE BRAND DEYGA ORGANICS CLAIMS:

We strongly believe in Natural- Its the only way to keep you skin safe and flawless. All products are hand made and the base ingredients are highly nourishing.

Our Ingredients are 100% Natural. Natural ingredients originate from nature and ONLY undergo chemical changes due to biological processes such as fermentation, distillation, and cold processing.

PURE AND NATURAL

100% Pure. We aim to create the world's most pure, organic and all-natural line of cosmetics, beauty products and skincare. Our cosmetics are formulated with high-performing antioxidants, naturally occurring vitamins and essential oils to give your skin maximum benefits.

NO COMPROMISE

Quality is our priority. Every ingredient is sourced from the best of farms across India. The products reflect a fresh feel and fragrance. 

MOST IMPORTANTLY - 

OUR PRODUCTS DO NOT CONTAIN SLS, SLES, Parabens, MEA, DEA, TEA, Petrolatum, Phathalates, Ethoxylates and Silicones.


Let's talk about the products:

1. Deyga Rose scrub 

DESCRIPTION: This product comes in a powdered form which have tiny particles in it. It helps to bring a healthy glow and radiance to your face.

INGREDIENTS: Native rose, Petals of Lotus, Beetroot extract, Semolina, Aloe Vera Powder and Rice flour.

PRICE: INR 570 for 100 gm

SHELF LIFE: 6 Months

PACKAGING: It comes in a plastic tub with a screw open lid. 

FRAGRANCE: It has a slight woody rose fragrance which I find completely natural.


HOW TO USE: 

1. Wet your skin.

2. Scrub over face/hands/leg/underarm or elsewhere.

3. Leave it on skin for 60 seconds to absorb.

4. Rinse off.


MY EXPERIENCE:

I'm totally impressed by this scrub. It is gentle on the skin but at the same time it does exfoliate and makes the skin really soft. After using it my skin felt refreshed, softer and had a healthy glow. I didn't face any skin irritation. I'm a bit disappointed with the tub packaging for a face scrub because it has no spatula along with the product. I hope that the brand considers this idea for the consumer's convenience as they won't need to run around to get a spatula on their own while using this scrub. I recommend using this scrub 1-2 times a week.

RATING: 4/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Buy it from HERE 


2. Deyga Rose and Mulethi Facepack

DESCRIPTION: This Rose and Mulethi Facepack from Deyga is one of it's best sellers. The facepack comes in a pink powdered texture. The perfect treat for dull & dry skin. Rejuvenate & brighten up the glow.

PACKAGING: It comes in a glass tub with screw-open lid. This brand has most of their product packaging in this format.

FRAGRANCE: It has a very subtle rose petal fragrance.

HOW TO USE:

1. Add few drops of milk/toner to a table spoon of powder.

2. Apply a thick layer on the skin

3. Let it dry for 15-20 minutes.

4. Wash off with a gentle massage.


MY EXPERIENCE: I used this facepack twice a week and could feel a slight glow on my face. I recommend to use it more than twice a week or even daily for better results. Though it is for all skin types, I’d recommend it only to normal and oily skin. If you have dry and sensitive skin, I’d request you to do a patch test first. Otherwise, I really liked this product a lot.

MY EXPERIENCE: I liked this particular product from Deyga Organics a lot. It is a bit oily but non-sticky. The serum is really light-weight and absorbs into the skin overnight. It also spreads so easily and evenly on the face quickly within few seconds. Very few drops are sufficient for the whole face. As it comes with a dropper, it is so easy to use it. It does adds glow and makes the skin softer after regular use.

An address to my late friend | How to cope with stress during lockdown

August 08, 2020 7
 Welcome back everyone! Today I'm going to share a precious part of my life; about the unbearable loss of my life. I'm also going to share my opinion about mental health issues during lockdown along with solutions, so that it may help some of you to get rid of stress and live your life to the fullest and I pray that none of you go through those painful things...

Addressing my late friend Saya

I'm shattered to inform you that I've lost my gem, true friend, supporter, caring, brave, loving, cheerful, kind, talented, guide, affectionate, funny, forgiving, strong, bold, confident, bubbly, smart, hardworking, responsible, crazy, determined, chatty, moody, sensitive, selfless, best friend 𝐒𝐚𝐲𝐚. She suicided on 28 July 2020 at a very young age of 20.
 In her memory, I would like to tell you all about her impressive achievements and our precious memories.

A glimpse of her achievements
First of all, let's have a glance at her awesome achievements.

She was an athlete at national level. She stood 1st runner-up in 100m hurdles in the year 2014. She was also a state-level champion in skating. Here's a look at all her achievements in sports.

Jaw-dropping! Right?
But due to certain personal reasons she couldn't make it further in her sports career. Not only an athlete but she was also a dental student. Yes! so many achievements at this young age...

A letter to Saya from her beloved Shona(me)
I'm extremely shattered and I don't know from where to start and how to express my feelings in words for you Saya. You were the best thing that ever happened to me. You've touched my heart in so many ways that I could never have thought of your care and love & I'll always treasure our friendship with every breath in me. You were so brave, so strong, so caring, loving and affectionate & the happy going beautiful soul I've ever met in my life. We met each other in our college and made an instant connection.

We became roommates along with Khushi(Ranjo) & led to the blissful friendship we ever had. We made it from #YaShiKa to #Dyashika (Deepa, Sayali, Khushi, Hansika). We did a lot of fun together from a soothing and relaxing talk to the creepiest & craziest things I ever did. It was you who taught me to smile whatever the situation is. You and Ranjo taught me how to deal with shitty people, how to fight for ourself, how to speak up against wrong things and what not. Our silly jokes, drama and all the fun we had... I'm missing ever bit of it.

We laughed, we cried, we loved, we cared, we fought, we shared all the secrets of our life. Nothing was hidden between us. But I just don't know what was bothering you so much that you took such a drastic step without our acknowledgment. There was so much left to do yaar, so much left to teach and learn, so much more memories to be made, so many trips to go, so many dreams to get fulfilled Saya...Why did you left us so early?
 I loved to hear Shona from you... there's no one who calls me so lovingly the way you did. Your those sentences,
"Chalo guys, I'm ready."
"Shona, kitna late karegi!"
"Beta, tujhe na tujse jada main janti hoon"
"No worry guys, main hoon na!"
 "Shona, I love you."
still resound...I love you so much Saya!
I miss you very much...Hope that you were here & shared with us at least once what you were going through, we could have find out the solutions for you dear.
#Multi_talented #Dabangg #Allrounder #Athlete #SRK_lover #most_caring #oneinmillion
 I love you so very much Saya! Thank you for always being there for me through thick and thin, thank you for teaching me so many life lessons. I'll always feel blessed to be a best friend of such a beautiful soul. Though you are not physically here with us, you'll always be with me in my heart, until we meet again... I'll always cherish all our happy moments forever. May your soul rest in peace,  condolence and strength to your family.❤️


How to cope with depression/stress during lockdown

The lockdown has badly affected the mental health of people leading to anxiety and depression. Self-isolation can trigger our emotions making us feel anxious and stressed. And that's what happened with my best friend and a lot of other people. While quarantining, adults has generally led to negative psychological effects. I think that
 Loneliness + Overthinking = Extreme negative psychology 
which further leads to anxiety and stress. Here are the few solutions that you can opt for to take care of your mental health.

1. Talk to your close one'
It's the best option you can go for in such a situation. You can talk to your family/friends whoever you feel closer and comfortable with. It will definitely make you feel much lighter and less lonely considerably. You can also facetime your friends you've lost touch with. Connecting with each other and sharing our thoughts and feelings can reduce the stress to a great extend.

2. Meditate/Exercise
Meditation is one of the greatest way of making us calm and find our inner peace. It has a lot of benefits besides reducing the stress. You can begin with just 5 minutes a day and gradually increase the time according to yourself. You can pick any time of the day according to your convenience whether it be after waking up in the morning or before going to bed at night or even any time throughout the day. In the beginning, you may struggle with just sitting down and closing your eyes but day-by-day you'll learn to sit calm. Then another few weeks it will take to concentrate on breath. But once you get used to concentrate on your breath while sitting in calm position, then your brain will learn to seek happiness in that peace. Storm in mind can only be slowdowned by meditation. That's the real beauty of it.
Now, if you are not into meditation/uninterested in doing it try doing workout/exercise. It's a good way to stay healthy and kill time. Anything that gets your heart pumping is excellent for both your physical and mental health. 
You can find many online tutorials for meditation & workout on the social media platforms.

3. Recite positive affirmations & be grateful.
The first thing everyone should do after waking up in the morning is to look at yourself in the mirror and say positive things like "You are amazing", "This too shall pass", "I believe in myself", "I can do it" etc. This may sound stupid but trust me it builds our self-esteem & works as a kick-ass start to the day. Also, always try to keep a smile on your face even if you are not in the mood. Doing so makes you feel positive vibes. Try it!
The second thing is to always be grateful for whatever you have. Practicing gratitude for whatever you have at any point of time in a day has a huge impact on your mental health. 

4. Reframe "I'm stuck inside" to "I can focus on myself & utilize time to it's best"
This is the time you've been waiting for all your life, 'to get a holiday'. Now, you have so much time to focus on yourself and do what you like. Start getting creative & learn new things. Pursue that hobby you've been long ignore. I know, all of us have a hidden talent, it's time to show it up. Get your hands on cooking, dancing, singing, painting or anything you like. Also, it's not necessary to be perfect at everything/anything. Do it just for fun. It's important to do few things in life just as a fun.

5. Make a quarantine routine
While most of us would love to sleep in, because we don't have work to do, sticking to a routine is important for our mental health. Eat your meals at regular intervals, follow a proper sleep cycle, make a to-do list for the day. Indulge into new things. Also, don't beat yourself up if you don't complete the daily task. There's always a new day there.

6. Read the holy book
If nothing of the above works for you then sit down and read the holy book you prefer(of your religion/any religion you like). Now you must be thinking that what kind of suggestion is this but trust me there's solution to every problem in the holy book. Also, I'm a complete नास्तिक but I truly believe that a holy book has answers to all our questions.

7. Consult a psychiatrist
If you are at that extreme case of depression then immediately consult your psychiatrist. Do not think like "I'm not a mad person to consult a psychiatrist" because that's what most of us think. It's not like that at all. You'll be just getting a help over a mental issue just like we get it for our physical issues. Don't treat it that way. You should reach out to get a help if your anxiety becomes unmanageable.

That's all, people! Follow these steps and allow yourself to heal and calm. 
Stop. Remember you are the best in the world. No one can be like you. The life you live now is temporary, not permanent. There will be change, wait for it. You are going to have an epic future. Go ahead.
Stay healthy, stay safe, connect and be happy.

There's a guilt inside me for not knowing what my friend was going through & unable to help her to deal with whatever she was going through. I feel very incomplete without her presence, but I'll feel my life accomplished even if this post help one of you to cope with stress. 


Letters from our beloved friends

Here I represent a brief note by her beloved friends cum family.

Ranjo's letter for you Saya
Can hardly stop myself from crying, I never expected that our friendship will end so early in this way... but you know Saya  #DYaShiKa is meant to be forever .
Ya... may be you aren't physically present here but our memories with you will always last and that's enough for us to survive... FRIENDSHIP is not to be physically together... FRIENDSHIP is connection between two souls and you are always with us Saya.
Saya I dont know what was killing you inside... What made you to take this drastic step... but I definitely know you are the strong & the bravest girl I've came across...
Saya I have made less friends but they were my life yaar... & you were amongst them... I even can't express how I'm feeling right now... We have lost our gem, our rowdy, our dabbang member.
You have always shared everything with #YaShiKa then why you left us with so many questions unanswered Saya? You were like our mother who always cared for us... but now who will care for us Saya... You always protected us, always made us laugh in our worst moods, always supported us. You were the only person who knew me in and out. Your advices lifted me the most. I am going to miss you so much #mypartnerincrime.
We have sawn dreams together and we were about to fulfill all those... our plans for 2nd, 3rd & 4th year.
"Ranjo sunn na...I love u "
"Chal Ranjo Shona ko pareshan karte"
"Chal Ranjo Deepa ke room ki lights band karke aate"
"Ranjo sab thik hai na, itna muh kyu utra hua hai?"
Ranjo... Ranjo... Ranjo... This nickname will always be my fav one Saya.
My athlete boltsaya... I wish may your dream be fulfilled in next life. I will really miss the bright smile that made my day, it’s hard to believe that you are no more amongst us but will always be in our memories. Some people maybe thinking you were weak... cuz those people don't know you well and the one who knows and understands you well... knows better that you were the strongest girl.
We lost a great friend, but the universe received a new beautiful star. You are observing us from heaven, we will try our best to live happily so that your soul remains happy and rests in peace.
And even will take care of aunty and uncle ... they are really missing you badly Saya.
You'll always be missed Saya darling... and #DYaShiKa will always exist in our hearts ... Love you so so much Saya... Ranjo aur Shona tere bina akele pad gaye yaar...
But I know someday , somewhere we will meet again... Until we do ,I'll find the strength to live through each new day.
I'm grateful that I have met such a beautiful soul in this life and hope to meet you again in another life.
Gone from our sight ...not from our hearts.
Condolence to your family ...May your soul rest in peace.


Deepa's(Nautanki) letter for you Saya
It takes me lots and lots of strength to just believe you are no more around us ...This was not suppose to end so early, it's not even one year we met and this has become a memory... Me as a person was very selective in making friends as I'm afraid to lose them at any point of life and there I found the girls who matched my vibes, #YaShiKa, making it #DYaShiKa... Saya, know this you were very crucial in our lives, I don't know what you were hiding behind those smiles, but the world believed that you were the happiest person ever... Our friendship is meant forever, your physical presence might not be with us but your emotional presence is foreverrr...we will cherish the memories with you everyday...Just wanted to know that what made you do this? Only if I could know that those smiles were hiding a lot of things from us...I don't know what you might be going through but I know only this that you were not the one who give up easily, What you were going through in life, No-one could know your pain better than you. My strongest and bravest girl... I'm gonna miss those big hugsss which I used to get from you, which use to calm me in all ways... My ears will be waiting to hear Nautanki from your mouth and it would never be heard again... I don't even have words to describe the momets I shared with you... I can laugh as well as cry at the same time this many memories you gave to us... You played so many roles in our lives,cared like a mother, shouted like father, fought like a sister and loved more than a best friend... If God gave me a last wish to be fulfilled it will be give you back to our lives...This loss is unbearable... I just pray God that you might be in your happy space now and fulfill all your dreams in the new life you get... God has taken its favourite angel back, you might have got your wings and flying high in your space. Some people may think you were weak, coz those people don't know you well, but we know how strong & brave you were. Just be happy wherever you are... you have gone away from us, but not from these hearts... You don't know how much these idiots are missing you each day, can hardly put in words...And this isn't the end ❣️until we meet again Saya boo... I love u a lot... May your soul rest in peace Rockstar... Love and prayers for you. Condolence to the family...


Rutuja's letter for you Saya
It's a strange feeling... I have so much to say yet I'm speechless .
I am always grateful to have a friend like you and always will.💖
"Irreplaceable"! The one word that definitely tells about you. There is no one like you and no one will ever be in future.
I never count years of our friendship, I count memories we both have...forever I will keep alive in meee. ❤️❤️❤️
Some times in life, you meet someone and feel an instant connection as if you've known her all your life and you realise that you don't have to be born from the same womb to be sisters !
The way you say "aye ritzz chalana hein kruu, aye ritzz yaar kay zale! ritzz tension nako gheus me aahee naa, ayee ritzz aple ikde cafe rahnar!!! ayee ritzz lovee youuu alll alll!!!" Baby I miss you more than youuu...
I wished I could fix that something which was broken inside you buttt...I couldn't.
You've gave me lots of memories & I've so much to write...
A part of my heart has gone with you...❤️
You'll be always missed!!! My babeee!
~Yours ritzzz❤️


Dear Saya,
Those special memories of you will always bring a smile on my face. The fact that you are no longer with us causes me pain but you are forever in my heart. May your soul rest in peace.🤍
