Quarantine life was a new way of life. At that time when most of us were trying to find positive dimensions of that new life, many were irritated and anxious. Our fast-paced life suddenly came to a standstill. It bought a lot of constructive changes to our relationships and living. Since we were not supposed to step out for work and other engagements, there were suddenly a lot of things not brought in daily use anymore which otherwise looked inseparable. We have tried to list most of these items but in case you feel we need to add some more, please mention them in the comments!
Just before the lockdown when the outbreak got serious, work from home was given to the employees in many offices. Afterward, everyone was privileged with this work from the home policy during the pandemic. During this time everyone started working and relaxing in their pajamas under the laptop tables, bidding a temporary goodbye to their not-so-comfortable formal office-wear.
Heels and formal shoes which were a part of our daily life also become useless during the lockdown. We are sure that you were happy to lock those formal shoes and heels inside. Even at that time if we had settled with the idea of walking around in those heels or formal bits all day, it was a great relief to be just in your slippers or without them too.
The perfume was the thing which we never thought of being useless. But as we all were in our home, who needs perfume? Weren’t you happy for saving your precious fragrances for the future? So much money-saving was happening during that quarantine time.
If you are not one of those who do not mind a couple of creases on their clothes, you might have been still ironed your clothes in lockdown. But those who always wanted to say goodbye to this not-so-useful-right-now activity must be relaxed. The iron was safely kept in your cupboard till we needed it again.
Nothing to say to the no-makeup persons, but definitely it was a tough time for us who starts their day with a confident makeup look. That was the best time to take care of our skin since we didn’t need to apply makeup for a long period of time. At that time our skin could breathe freely as it went only for natural therapies and home therapies.
For frequent travelers, the lockdown time was quite tough and strange. Keep that passport in your cupboard for sometimes because the battle against coronavirus is still on and traveling abroad is still a risk. So just keep calm and wait to use your passport again.
Who thought that our sunscreen would become useless? It was so wonderful to not apply any product on our skin in order to protect it against harmful rays. Sunscreen is a mandatory morning ritual for many of us but at that time it also became no more in use item for a few months. It was a period of time to stay natural and stay beautiful.
Who wears sunglasses in-home and roam around? No outing, No travel, no sunglasses. It was a break for your shades and for the attitude which it brings to your personality. That was a time to stay simple and stay you.
Who needs handbags at home when everything that we need was on our bed. Most of you will agree that in lockdown our bed was our house. The handbag was a most essential part of our everyday life but suddenly everything changed and it got shifted in the wardrobe for a very long time period.
This is by far the most popular answer we have received from women. It was almost a dream come true for women to not wear the tough elastics all day. One can easily roam around without any inhibitions.
