January Favorites

I hate the cold weather. Winter does not look good on me. It dries my skin out, dries my hair and I hate cleaning off my car. As I am writing this Maine is getting a record breaker storm right now. My ass is not going to shovel all this and may stay inside until it melts. Anyways these are some products that I have been LOVING this month.

Ill start off with this AMAZING line of face products I received from an awesome friend of mine. My skin has been breaking out so bad! I have been using these products for about 5 weeks and it has cleared my skin. Not only is my skin clear but this stuff smells like heaven! My two favorites in this line is the DayDream BodyWorks Papaya Enzyme Cleanser and the Papaya Enzyme Toner. Both smell amazing! Even the toner which to me is super hard to have a toner actually smell amazing and not like alcohol. These both can be found at DayDream BodyWorks in Portland, Maine.

The next two products are both from BH Cosmetics. I have been using there contour kit daily. This is such a great alternative to the Anastasia Beverley Hills kit and about 60% less. I got mine from there website for about 11 bucks. I have also been loving this matte light pink shade from there Glamorous Blush palette. I have been using this color almost daily. This blush and contour kit blends so well and lasts all day!

I love looking like a have been at the beach year round but I don't always like using the tanning bed. So I have been laying off the tanning bed and found a great new self tanner called  St. Moriz tanner in medium. I put this on at night after a shower and I sleep in it. I wash it off in the morning and I am one shade darker. No streaking and it fades all at once.

 



I am loving that next month is the month of LOVE oh yeah and the 50 shades of gray movie is coming out... I would love to have my own Mr.Gray in my bedroom.

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...
