Self Care Night Routine | Quick Indian Dinner Recipe, Hair Care, Skin Care Tools & More

In this video, i'm taking you through an evening of self-care, the biggest form of self-care for me is enjoying a feel-good meal for dinner, the kind that's tasty yet easy to put together. I have paneer here and capsicum and i've roughly chopped up both of these, and here i have a homemade gravy. This is made with tomato and spices. I made this yesterday for a meal and have extra that is perfect for today, i'm beginning by heating butter. In a pan, and also adding a bit of oil so that the butter doesn't burn and i'm also adding chilies in and sauteing them for a bit and then i'm adding the chopped paneer and capsicum, adding spices. This garam masala cumin powder, coriander powder and mixing them well almost like the dry spices, have coated the paneer and the capsicum, and then i add the gravy. I mix the gravy really well and i let them simmer for a few minutes and then top it with roasted methi. This is kasuri methi. This gives a beautiful aroma and flavor to the dish and you can enjoy this with other veggies as well: peas, cauliflower, french beans, corn or whatever other way you like, and the spices. We added in the beginning lend their chatpata taste, which blends really well with a slightly sweet and tangy gravy. This is best enjoyed with parathas and you can even eat them with stuffed ones or rotis or rice or even as a sandwich stuffing. But today it's these gorgeous parathas with ghee. For us, this is that kind of a meal that isn't too much of a cheat like the gravy, isn't a very thick creamy gravy and there's nothing really fried in it, but it gives a restaurant level meal satisfaction after i wrap up dinner. I literally shut the kitchen and move on to a relaxing foot soak. I recently purchased this foldable pedicure tub from amazon and the reason i got it is because it doesn't take up too much storage space, just open it up, set it and attach these rollers, which, by the way, feel really good. I love adding epsom salts a couple of drops of eucalyptus oil for relieving a bit of foot pain, a few drops of lavender oil for relaxation and a bit of coconut oil to help with dryness and, of course, shampoo for a good lather. Then some hot water and it's soaked time. So when i soak my feet in, i like to put on something fun to watch and also keep moving my feet back and forth as the rollers feel amazing on the soles of the feet after the water has cooled off, i wipe them off with a towel And off late, i've been using this turkish style towel. I discovered this brand called mush on amazon and ordered a couple of things from them, and this turkish towel is a game changer. For me, it's made from 100 bamboo they're thin and not bulky yet pretty absorbent. They can be used for travel, actually they're perfect for that, because they're really thin and lightweight. They are also gently enough to be used on babies and also pretty good for regular use at home. I'Ll leave a link to these in the description box below do check out the gorgeous colors that they have next, let's ease of the tension with a head massage, so i'm using coconut oil - and this currently is the bottle that i have and i'm first just applying. It throughout the scalp and lens of my hair was actually talking to a friend of mine while doing this, hence the airpods once the oil is spread all over. I take my head massage device and this is from a brand called lifelong and it's got these massage nodules that go around and they're not hard. They have a silicone type texture and with one button press you get this sort of a massage. If you love head massages, then i cannot recommend this device enough, even on your own. It feels like a professional level, scalp massage and for me, a good head, massage eases off a lot of stress and tension. Another thing i love doing is using the same: coconut oil for a hand massage. This is like a facial for the hands, massage the oil, well, even on your nails and cuticles and then use any scrub. It could be a foot, scrub, a hand, scrub or even a face scrub to get rid of dead dry skin and the result is soft, smooth, nourished hands. Now, let's cleanse the face and put on my favorite green clay, mask this one's from dot and key, and it feels so good on the skin. After leaving this on for a few minutes to dry, i like to wash my face very thoroughly and this detoxifies, the skin clay masks, really help remove any dirt and clean the pores, and i also want to give a shout out to these mush bamboo face styles. I'M pretty obsessed with the brand at this point, but these are legit the softest face. Styles: i've used. They feel amazing on the skin they're made from 100 bamboo again and are absorbent. I do have their hand towels as well, and this one has been with me for the last few months, and yet it looks and feels new now it's time for a facial massage and i do like to go in with an oil. This is an almond oil and i feel this oil really brightens my skin up and it leaves it feeling very soft and supple almond. Oil has those properties, and this is a facial tool that helps stimulate circulation. The kansa wand is a must for any skin care. Enthusiast kansa, the golden rounded part, is a blend of copper, tin and zinc and is a conductor that can help balance the doshas. It also aids lymphatic drainage, which enhances the body's ability to detox. I also use it around the eyes and lips for added circulation and here's a lip scrub that i love it's made with dates and rambutan and helps scrub the dry skin off the lips almost instantly. It is very yummy and that's just an added benefit. Now it's shower time and i simply cannot get enough of this stress relieving range from the bath body box, the aroma of eucalyptus and spearmint is so calming and when these are used together, it literally feels like a spa experience. If nothing else, then i recommend you to try the body cream from this range. Trust me you'll be hooked too. Once i've showered, i have to put my hair up in this hair wrap from mush. It is so much more convenient than a hair tile and so much better than a regular microfiber wrap. This is softer a lot more absorbent and very comfortable while my hair dries off. I chill watch something light and funny and also put on some foot cream. This is my favorite. It has a fragrance of lemongrass, which i find very soothing. While i have the cream on. I do like to cover my feet with socks, as this helps give them intense hydration overnight. These socks are also from mush and, i have to say, they're, very, very high quality and comfortable and they're perfect for a cozy night. Like this, you guys know my love for nail polish and i recently discovered a brand called har koi, meaning for everyone. They'Re, a clean beauty brand and currently have nail serum infused nail polishes that hydrate and repair nails i love their shades. They have a coral, a pink, a blue, green and a purple gray, which is what i'm wearing today the quick drying, which is why i love putting them on at night, so that my nails are ready for a shoot day tomorrow. And this is one coat of the color and i've inserted how it looks with two coats here as well. I have a coupon code for them, which is on the screen and in the description box below and do use that to get an additional discount on their website. Links will be in the description box now. Finally, it's time to tuck myself in, but i also got the habit of tucking. My hair in so here is a brand called esme luxury and i have a mulberry silk pillow cover and a hair turban from them. I'Ve heard so much about the benefits of sleeping on a silk pillowcase for skin, so i've recently started using it along with this hair wrap. This is also mulberry. Silk and i've used it for about a week, and i already see a few benefits like my hair.
