Happy Sunday!! How was your Thanksgiving? Did you go shopping on Black Friday? I had a great Thanksgiving with family and enjoyed some family time. Well I am half way through the year with my goals. Let's see the progress I made for this month. Blogging Goals 1. Set A Blogging Schedule- I have still been sticking to my Sunday, Tuesday and Friday schedule. 2. Change Up The Current Style- I haven't much with my site yet but it is in the works. 3. Learn More About Blogging- I haven't done anymore research but still looking over the information I have collected.  4. Attend A Blogging Event- Still looking for an even to attend. I was planning on going to the Holiday Pop Up Makeup Show but some scheduling conflicts came up so I have to miss this year. :( I am looking forward to IMATS again!! 5. Proof Read Better- I have been really working on this. I make sure to read over my post twice before publishing. I haven't seen many typos or mistakes ...

Happy Tuesday!! Sorry there was no post on Sunday. I was a bit under the weather and enjoying family time. I just wanted to take the time to say what I am thankful for this year. Can't believe Thanksgiving is on Thursday and it will be 2015 before we know it. So much has gone on in my life in this past year that has made me want to throw in the towel and give up, made me feel so defeated and broken. There have been things that have made me so overjoyed and in love with life. Life has just been a rollercoaster and I'm proud of myself for still standing and not backing down. I am so thankful for learning to be patient with life and knowing things are not on my time. Things do happen for a reason and sometimes it's hard to question it. You just have to know that there is always a rainbow at the end of the storm. I'm so thankful for my son who is my motivation to keep going and not give up. I look at him and know that he depends on me and needs me to be there for him. I pus...

Happy Friday!! It has really been getting cold!! I just want to stay inside with some warm coffee or tea and food lol!! Today's post is going to be from Shopping My Beauty Samples series. Let's get into what I have been using lately. Ruffian Nail Polish in Ruffian Naked Box it came from: Birchbox Full Size or Sample Size: Full Size Price Point: 10.00 Review: I always love when I get nail polish in my boxes. I get to try new brands that I haven't heard of before. I love this nail polish!! Its the perfect nude color for interviews, when you don't feel like wearing color or just for a clean look. The formula is so creamy, you just need two coats. It lasts for a few days and just an overall great polish. I have received another polish by Ruffian that I need to try soon. I would repurchase from this line. Harvey Prince Ageless Body Cream Box it came from: Birchbox Full Size or Sample Size: Sample Size Price Point: 22.00 Review: It was great to get somet...

He's ready for Christmas and I didn't even start shopping yet lol!! I'm already over this old,windy weather!! Bring back Spring!!!

Happy Sunday!! I've had another busy day with coaching my girls at a playoff game and it was so cold out there and birthday party. Also trying to get this laundry completed before it drives me crazy!! So here is the second post to my Fall Favorites and it is going to be on skincare. Body The colder weather is not so nice to my skin. I need to use something heavy to help keep my skin moisturized and soft. I just picked up the Nivea Essentially Enriched lotion and have been loving it so far. My skin is so soft and stays moisturized and doesn't get ashy lol. Its also good to reach for a good body cream or body butter to help your dry skin. I love the ones from Bath and Body Works. It is also good to switch up your body cleansers when it gets cooler out. I still use a shower gel but will reach more for body creams to wash with. They are so moisturizing and help with keeping the moisture in your skin. Its also important to exfoliate your skin to help get rid of the dead...

Happy Friday!! I have had a crazy day and still have stuff to do. I finally have my computer back but the software for my web cam was not on here!! So I had to go get my boyfriend's iPad and then it was time to pick up my son from school and I had to wait until someone was home to occupy the little guy lol. Also trying to get clothes folded, put away and laundry done lol!! So this post is going to be a review on the new Kiss Insta Wave Automatic Curler. *This was provided for review by BrandBacker and my opinion is based on using this product. Grab a snack because this is going to be picture heavy and maybe a little long. Powered by BrandBacker* Here is the product still in the packaging. According to the Kiss site,   It’s quick and easy to get salon-quality curls with the revolutionary new InstaWave by KISS. Just push the button to style any type of hair effortlessly. In order to use this product, I had to straighten my hair. Its a great time during the year and...

Happy Tuesday!! Hope you guys are enjoying the week so far. I decide to break this post into 3 separate ones and today I will be talking about my favorite Fall makeup products!! Face  During the warmer seasons, I will use a tinted moisturizer as my everyday. I love how lightweight they are and the added SPF. When it starts to get cooler, I will grab for my BB Cream and Liquid Foundation. I love the Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream for everyday. It gives a bit more coverage and has amazing benefits for the skin. I have yet to use my MAC Studio Fix Fluid foundation but I will soon.  Bronzers I put away my shimmery bronzers and reach for my matte bronzers in the Fall. I love my Too Face Chocolate Soleil bronzer, I have talked about it several times on here. Hoola by Benefit is a new one for me. I received it when I was selected to host a Beauty Bash. I have only used this once but will do a full review when I use it a few more times. Eyes ...
