DIY GlamGlow Mask


I have been eyeing the Glam Glow facial mask for some time now… One day I was talking with a client of mine who said she had gotten it and was very disappointed. I almost purchased it on black Friday when I found it at Sephora but I could not bring myself to spend the money and now I am glad I didn’t. Glam Glow goes for around 70.00. Then a MIRCLE! I found a DIY on Pinterest (I am an addict). I changed it a bit and BAM! I have found my new favorite mask!

2 Tbsp of Coconut Oil

½ Cup Bentonite Clay

8 Capsules of Activated Charcoal

2 Tbsp Aloe Vera

4 oz of Peppermint Tea (seeped strong)

3 Drops of peppermint Essential Oil

3 Drops of Eucalyptus Essential Oil

Directions

Seep the tea and set aside. Melt Coconut oil in a bowl. Combine all the ingredients except the tea. The mixture will become clumpy at this point start adding your tea a little at a time until you have a smooth mixture.  Store in a glass container. The mixture can be kept in a cool dry place for a month.

Thrift shopping

Thrift shopping can be the best and worst shopping experience in your life. You either find cool, trendy, unique and vintage pieces or you end up wasting your time shifting through clothes. I personally enjoy what I call the "hunt". Yes, while thrift shopping I feel like I am hunting for a rare animal! I always went to second hand stores as a child not because I wanted to but because my mom couldn't always afford new clothing. However it taught me that I could be dressed just as cool if not cooler than those who blew hundreds of dollars at the mall. Once I became an adult I went from going to Goodwill to going into second hand stores that sold higher end clothing. The method of finding perfect pieces was the same... I will forever be the huntress! Here are some key things to think about and do before you go on your thrift hunt. 1. See what you got!     Shop your own closet first. Do you have things that you never wear anymore? maybe to big or to small? If its in season...

Building your makeup collection

Many of us see all these fabulous woman on YouTube with these HUGE makeup collections. These woman seem to have every color of lipstick out there and piles of stuff. Let's be real, it takes YEARS! to get that much crap and most of us do not need that much stuff, however us girls need options! First of all I would get your everyday makeup foundation, brows, favorite blush, mascara and a nice lip color or gloss, concealer, these really are the "backbone" and core of your makeup collection. You also do not need to spend an arm and a leg on makeup product to have a great look. If you watch any Youtube or are Instagram many of the looks are created using some drug store products. Also price is not everything. I have spent a pretty penny on some items only to discover that some fora fraction of the cost works even better. So here are my tips for building your makeup collection. 1. Find out what kind of skin you have. Are you Oily, Dry or a combo. I have some parts of me that ...

Failing at weightloss

Hello ALL!       I am posting this a little late because I had set a goal to be 200 pounds or less by the end of the month. I FAILED, not only did a fail but I gained a pound. At first I was getting down on myself, and I wanted to give up...it was in that moment while I was eating some cookies with frosting that I realized I did not really TRY. I did go to the gym a few times and I was doing ok. However late at night I would get into the candy and sweets.So instead of giving up I made a promise with myself. I want and need to be healthy for my children but mostly myself. I want to feel better. I need to feel better. I often eat out of boredom or when I am said. So my goal for May is to be down to 190 pounds, which I think is alot considering I failed my April goal. So I decided I wanted to just be under 200 pounds. I plan on taking the following steps to subside my endless nightly eating I tend to do. 1. I have made a list of things "to do" when I am feeling like eatin...
