Baby Ayla was born into starvation, and has struggled with malnutrition all her life. Since birth, she has faced an IOF-imposed blockade on food and the IOFβs deliberate destruction of potable water sources in Gaza. Now it is taking really its toll on her, and she has severe diarrhea.
Ayla is rapidly losing the few fluids she has in her body, and the IOF assault has made food, water, and medicine extremely scarce. For a toddler, this is absolutely life-threatening. If she cannot replenish the bodily fluids she is losing, her fragile kidneys will go into failure!!
Her widowed mother URGENTLY needs funds for medicine and saline solution. This will help replenish the fluids and vitamins that her tiny body needs to survive.
Every moment that Ayla remains sick, she gets closer and closer to kidney failure. She urgently needs your support to survive!!

Every chic woman knows that a captivating day starts the night before. This routine is all about luxurious self-care β because waking up as the most poised, radiant version of yourself is a lifestyle. Ready to transform your evening into an elegant ritual? Letβs step into your new, elevated bedtime routine.
Create an Atmosphere: Begin by setting a serene mood. Dim the lights, light a sophisticated candle (think notes of sandalwood or bergamot), and play a calming jazz playlist. This is your time to unwind and transition into a world of serenity.
Sophisticated Cleansing: Start with a cleansing oil to melt away makeup and daily grime. Rinse it off, then follow with a gentle, hydrating cleanser. This double cleanse is like a reset button, leaving your skin ready for its nighttime restoration.
The Hydration Layer: Pat on a luxurious serum β hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, or a skin-renewing elixir. Then, apply a rich night cream. Imagine each layer as a silk robe for your skin, nurturing and hydrating it while you sleep.
Elevated Facial Massage: Use a jade roller or gua sha to massage in your serum. Not only is this relaxing, but it boosts circulation and helps define your natural contours. Itβs a moment of quiet elegance β a way to remind yourself of your own grace.
Silk Essentials: Swap your pillowcase for silk. Itβs gentle on your skin and hair, reducing friction while you sleep. A chic woman wakes up with smooth skin and effortless hair β because beauty is in the details.
Hair Ritual: Before bed, brush your hair and apply a touch of light hair oil to the ends. Twist it into a low bun or a loose braid for natural waves. Itβs a simple yet sophisticated way to keep your hair looking polished in the morning.
The Nightcap: Pour yourself a cup of herbal tea β chamomile, peppermint, or lavender. Sip slowly, feeling the warmth relax your body. A classy woman indulges in these small, soothing rituals to unwind and replenish.
Outfit Planning: Select tomorrow's outfit with intention. Choose pieces that make you feel confident and chic, whether itβs a tailored blazer or that perfect little black dress. Lay everything out: jewelry, shoes, and bag β so your morning flows seamlessly.
Screen Detox: Put your phone on βDo Not Disturbβ mode at least 30 minutes before bed. In this quiet time, youβre choosing presence and grace over endless scrolling.
Read Something Timeless: Replace your screen with a classic book or an inspiring magazine. This is how chic women nurture their minds and escape into elegance before drifting off.
Visualize Tomorrow: As you close your eyes, picture yourself waking up refreshed, glowing, and composed. See yourself moving through the day with grace and poise. Youβre setting the stage for a day where everything aligns effortlessly.
This is more than a nighttime routine; itβs a ritual of self-respect and refinement. Wake up to your fullest potential, feeling radiant, empowered, and impeccably put-together. Sweet dreams, darling β tomorrow, the world is your runway. πππΉ
10 of my favorite easy glow up tips! π β§βΛ β
get a gua sha!! not expensive at all and made such a difference in my face shape and carving out my cheek bones and jawline. thereβs lots of good tutorials on tiktok or youtube!
tea in the morning/night! thereβs so many teas to help with different things but my favoriteβs are spearmint tea for clearing skin and green tea for reducing bloating.
ice your face! helps SO much with de-puffing and closing up your pores! dipping your face in a bowl with ice water can reduce inflammation, help with acne and reduce oily skin!
make sure to get enough sleep! Itβs so easy to stay up scrolling on tumblr until the sun comes up but getting enough sleep is so important mentally and physically!
find a skincare routine that works for you and remember too much skincare can be bad for your skin! my skin was breaking out the worst when i was using a bunch of skincare and Itβs cleared so much since i simplified my routine.
use a lash/brow serum! my favorite brand is grande lash and itβs a little pricey but using castor oil works as well and itβs super affordable.
going on walks! Iβve never been a fan of intense exercises and Iβm a chronic bed rotter but putting on my favorite hot girl playlist and strutting on the treadmill/sidewalk is genuinely so fun!
rosemary oil for hair growth! my holy grail of hair growth products along with a scalp massager. my whole life my hair grew so slow and since using rosemary oil i have to trim my bangs twice a month sometimes!
i cannot stress this one enough..wear what YOU want! donβt let new trends or judgment from others stop you from embracing your true style. we look our best when we feel most confident!
most importantly ~ take care of yourself! make sure youβre eating enough, drinking water, listening to your body and being gentle with yourself always. improving ourselves can be so fun but make sure itβs not at the expense of your mental health <3
