The Resolute Beauty Blogger- September 2014

Happy Football Sunday!! My team is currently losing right now, ugh! Here are my September updates for the Resolute Beauty Blogger!!

Blogging Goals

1. Set a blogging schedule- So far so good, still sticking to my schedule except for last week, it was a crazy busy week. 

2. Change up the current style- I have been changing my greeting before I start each post and the overall look of my blog is still being discussed and worked on. I am hoping to start during some tutorials soon and working on putting together a Fall Fashion Lookbook!! 

3. Learn more about blogging- I have still been doing some research on blogging and have come across so much information. I mainly have been looking up how to get more traffic here and how to be a better blogger. I will most likely do a post on what I found.

4. Attend a blogging event- Still looking for one but I found a few natural hair brunches I want to attend soon. 

5. Proof read better- I have been really working on this. I am making sure I read my post out loud twice and correcting my mistakes. 

6. Get calendar and blogging book- I have been using them and it has been helping with keeping everything organized!! 

Personal Goals

1. Finding myself and figuring out what I want to do- I'm still working on those questions I talked about previously but I am making progress. It is really making me think and know myself a little better.

2. Use BBW stash more- Funny thing is when I was cleaning one day, I found three sets of new scents that I purchased over the summer along with some candles lol! I recently started using Twlight Woods which is one of favorites to use in the Fall season. 

3. Wearing skirts and dresses more often- I have still been sticking to this. I have to get more stockings to wear because it is getting cold. 

4. Wearing makeup more often- My work schedule sometimes changes and I chose to sleep more than wake up early to do my makeup lol! I went two weeks this month without a single bit of it. Well I let my skin breathe a bit but I missed it .

5. Be more prepared and organized- Kinda slacked off on this one. There have been times where I just have a half hour to get myself ready and run out without my lunch and snacks. I'm working on it lol! 

6. Not to stress so much- I'm really going to miss sitting outside on my lunch break. That did help with clearing my head. I haven't been stressing out too much except for these past couple weeks. Everything is going to be okay. 

So that is it on the progress I have been making on my goals. How are you making out on your goals? Comment below and let me know. See everyone on Tuesday!!

Taking a break.......

On Tuesday I did mention that I had some exciting news to share. I have been working part time for a while and searching like crazy for full time work. I was starting to get a little frustrated but never gave up. Well a full time opportunity came up at my current job and I am now full time status!!! I was just so overjoyed and thankful. I will have a more stable income, I can go back to school and start to make some moves. Then I started to get a little overwhelmed. How was I going to juggle being a full-time working mom, grad student, blogger and balance everything else. It has been a while since I had a full time schedule and based my blogging schedule around my days off during the week. I start my full time hours next week and just need to take a small break away from Naturalle Drea. I really didn't want to because I love this so much but I need to see how to handle everything. I will most likely change my blogging schedule around. Thank you to those who have been encouraging to...

Make Beauty Review*

Happy Friday beauty lovers! I hope you have been enjoying Winter again lol! I hope Mother Nature gets it together soon lol. Today I am bringing you another review powered by BrandBacker! *I was sent these products for testing purposes and this is my opinion after using. Let's get into the reviews! *Powered By BrandBacker* I was pretty excited when I was picked for this campaign. I have tried a Make Beauty eyeshadow before and loved it. Honestly, I was expecting the samples to be a little bigger. I was a little disappointed in the lipstick sample, it was hard to use. It kept breaking when I was trying to apply it. Make Beauty is a very new company to me that I was introduced to through Birchbox.  They have just about everything from eyeshadows to contour kits. They also have a line for skincare as well. Alabaster Eyeshadow This shadow on the Make Beauty site is described as a soft eggshell with peach undertones. This shadow is a matte and can be used as a brow ...

No Buy is Officially Over!!

Yay!! I survived 2 months without a single makeup purchase!! I am so proud of myself and knew I had the will power to do it!! It really helped me staying out of Sephora, Ulta and Mac, the usual places that get me in trouble lol! When I went into Target or Walmart, I wouldn't even go near the makeup section. Funny thing is, I haven't run to the store yet to purchase anything on my wish list yet but I will soon. You can see what is on my wish list here.  After organizing my makeup, I realized I have a lot of products that I don't use and need to try out soon. I'm going to try to really shop my stash before running out and buying something new. Maybe next time, I will go for a 3 month no buy!! Have you successfully completed a no buy? What is currently on your wish list? Comment below and let me know!! ~** Drea Notes**~ We went to the beach today and I'm so glad we did! It was such a fun day with the family!! I'm trying to get back to working out lol!  ...
