On a personal note....

I was in the craft store one day getting new fabric for a backdrop when this couple walks up to get in line. We greet each other and the woman says "Wow you have a nice head of healthy hair, its beautiful". I said thank you and she goes on to say "It's nice to see our sisters wearing their natural hair instead of all that weave, its damaging to your hair". I just nodded because I didn't agree with her statement and was so glad my number was called right after that. She just could of left it at the complement but I honestly don't understand why women do that. I honestly do not care how you wear your hair, as long as you are happy with it and it works for YOU. I have worn weave before, my hair used to be relaxed before I decided to go natural and I always change up my hair. Why bash someone else because of how they choose to wear their hair? We are supposed to be about unity, support and togetherness and it hurts me sometimes to see women tearing each oth

Shopping My Beauty Samples

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July. I spent time with family swimming and watching the fireworks. It has been a while since I've done a post in this series so let's shop my beauty samples. NYX Ombre' Blush in Insta Flame Box It Came From: Ipsy (I think lol) Full Size or Sample Size: Full Size Price Point: 10.00 Review: If you have been following me for a while, you know I rarely wear blush. This blush is so pretty and I love the ombre effect. NYX has some amazing products and this another one to add to the list. It is pretty pigmented and such a nice touch of pink on the cheeks. I think it would look great with any skintone. I would purchase another one.  Olay Ultra Moisture Shea Butter Body Wash Box It Came From: Walmart Beauty Box Full Size or Sample Size: Sample Size Price Point: 5.99 Review: I love Olay body products and was excited to try this. I love anything with Shea Butter because it is so moisturizing and amazing

I know this is the post that most of you have been waiting on lol! Hopefully you guys got a chance to check out my  PRE WEDDING VLOG.   By the time this goes up, we will have been officially married for over a month and it has been great. We're still trying to get situated and stuff but things have been going great so far. I'm in the process of changing my last name now. But I know you guys are here for the wedding details lol. I didn't get around to taking any pictures myself so I'm using pics that friends and family have posted on social media.  Our first post on social media as husband and wife Even though we had a few hiccups the day of the wedding, everything was amazing! It was more than I expected. I will say that I had a bit of mini meltdown right before the ceremony started because it was raining. It wasn't too hard but it wasn't supposed to rain that day. I know that when it rains on your wedding day it is supposed to be good luck but the ce
