Hands and Feet

Got this craving for masks recently and saw this Korean brand which was selling for $2. Tried their hand masks first and was quite happy with the result, most of all what I like is the gloves that were provided inside which I was able to wash off and can reuse.

I will apply hand cream and put on the gloves overnight and I believe it will show fantastic results. With such a good first impression, I went out to hunt for the feet equivalent since I was wondering if they provide them in socks and indeed they do! So happy they can serve so many purpose to me. Happy hands and feet!

Fruit Flies

I have been putting up with some flies that existed in our bathroom and was quite surprised when my friend told me they were fruit flies. I have no idea why they are hanging out in the toilet rather than around fruits.

So I was searching on the internet and found a green and simple recipe that traps fruit flies. The whole solution is so simple, a cup of apple cider vinegar (apparently fruit flies are attracted to the smell although it will kind of make your own bathroom smell sourly) and 2 drops of dishwashing detergent. Simple right?

I placed the solution in a plastic bottle which I planned to throw out after use. It looks like pee I know! And just a mere couple of hours, it has already trapped like 3 flies in it, I am waiting to see more results but happy with them for the time being. What a quick green fix.
