Writing Process Tour

Happy Football Sunday (I'm happy that my team won earlier today!)! Hope everyone has been enjoying the weekend so far. This post is going to be continuing the Writing Process Tour. I was nominated by the lovely + Keisha over at The Chrysalis Gals. She has wonderful makeup looks and tutorials to share, DIY recipes and recently launched her own makeup line! She is just a sweet person and thanks for nominating me. Now on to the questions.

1. What are you working on? I am still mapping out when I will do certain posts for this month. For this week, I will be getting a product review up and updated hair routine.

2. How does your work differ from others in this genre? I talk more about natural hair and natural hair products than everyone else I'm following now. I'm hoping to expand more into that world soon.

3. Why do I write what I do? I love everything about hair, makeup, fashion, beauty and all things girly. I wanted an outlet to talk about these things and learn more about different products I've never heard of before and meet some wonderful bloggers along the way.

4. How does your writing process work? Well, I write everything down in my blogging book. I take notes when I use products for reviews, for any ideas for post that pop into my head and my monthly favorites. Then I just sit down and write the post based on my notes. Its my vlogs that take some time lol.

Now I nominate the following ladies to continue the Writing Process Tour on Sept. 14 :

Rhodine over at Born To Blossom. I love reading all about the luxury products she has and is just a sweet person.

Caledonian Kitty over at Caledonian Kitty. She is over in the UK and love reading about the products we don't have over here in the US.

So that is it for this post. What is your writing process? Comment below and let me know. See you guys on Tuesday!!

  4. Oh Andrea, I didn't know you nominated me. Thanks a bunch. Will definitely get the post up and let you know when I do. A blogging book sounds like a great idea. Great for organization and ideas. Love all your hair care reviews and all your reviews on eyeshadows + more. I agree with Tanya!

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...

Updated: How I currently store my makeup

Hey guys! Back in January, I took everyone through my entire, well majority of my makeup collection. I showed how I used to store my makeup. You can see that original post  here.  I had everything stored in my empty Birchboxes. It was working for a while until I went to two makeup shows and I didn't have a place for everything! As I was cleaning one day, I saw that had this tall storage bin with stuff that I don't even use anymore and thought it would be a great place to store all my makeup and still have it organized. Here is a picture of where my makeup is currently stored. I believe I purchased this 7 drawer unit at Walmart years ago and glad I kept it! It has come in handy. I'll take you through what is in each drawer. I'll start with the top of the unit where all my brushes, setting sprays (that I haven't used yet lol), OCC lip tars( I couldn't find anything to store them in but that red cup lol. I'll have to decorate it later.) and other items...

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!  ...
