On A Personal Note......

Happy Thursday!! I have been working 10 hour shifts all this week and just so tired and ready for the weekend. This Pope Visit is just crazy in the city! I had another post planned but I just wanted to talk about something else. My creative juices have been running like crazy and there is so much I want to do with Naturalle Drea and trying grow and expand my brand. I aspire to have my name on a palette, lipstick, lashes, something one day. That must be the best feeling in the world to see something you created with your name on it loved by your supporters. I really want to step out and start doing tutorials and just overall doing bigger and better things. Its already hard enough with my demanding full time jobs and school schedule. If I want to achieve my goals, hard work and dedication must be put it. If you have big dreams and aspirations, don't be afraid to go for it. It may seem a difficult road ahead but when you reach that point, all the sleepless nights, sweat and tears will

What Goes With This??

Happy Sunday!! I hope everyone has enjoyed the weekend and ready for the work week! It has been a while since I did a post in this series but I found this piece of clothing that I had nothing to go with it. To give you a little refresher about this series, I would post an article of clothing and ask for your opinion on what to pair with it. I would go out with your suggestions and put an outfit together. I picked this skirt up on the clearance rack in Macy's. I thought it was so cute and really thought I had something to wear with it. When I got home, it was a different story. So I need your help on what to pair with this skirt. Here are pictures of it in natural light and with a flash. Natural Light With Flash This skirt comes a little bit past my calves and it very figure fitting. It is white with an overlay of a light brown snake print. So, What Goes With This?? I hope you enjoy the week and see you Thursday. Have you checked out my previous post,

On A Personal Note....

Happy Football Sunday!! I'm currently watching NFL Red Zone as I type. I was going to do a fashion post today but something was tugging at me to do a personal post. The other day I was just looking at my son and I'm just amazed at the little life I helped bring into the world. I can't believe he's 4 already and growing up so much. He's in preschool now and will be in kindergarten before I know it. It's just amazing how I can love someone so much like this. When I first found out I was carrying him, I was scared at first but the more I got to hear his heartbeat, see him through Sonograms, feel him kicking and moving, I grew more and more in love. I couldn't wait for the day I saw his little face and I just instantly fell in love the moment I laid eyes on him. Of course I was wondering what to do now, how to raise him, will he turn out to be a good person? All those things still wonder in my mind but everyday with him has been amazing. Yes we have our days wer

NARS Review

Happy Thursday! Hope you enjoyed the holiday weekend! I attended a wedding of one of my friends that I cheered with in college. It was great catching up with everyone and I caught the bouquet! Well today I'm bringing you a review on a few NARS products I have been trying out. Let's get into the reviews. I recently became a Sephora VIB member and I received an email about getting this bag with 3 NARS products for spending 35.00 online. I couldn't resist and was so happy to try out some other products by NARS. I have already tried a couple lip products and fell in love with them. The products that came in the bag were the Pro-Prime Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Primer, Pro-Prime Light Optimizing Primer and Orgasm Blush. I have heard so much about each product and couldn't wait to try them. Pro-Prime Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Primer This primer has been highly talked about on YouTube. This primer is supposed to help keep your shadows on all day without creasing or s

Thursday Reviews: Setting Powders

Happy Thursday! Can you believe that September is here?? That means it's time for football, pumpkins, Fall makeup and fashion!! Today's review is going to be on a couple setting powders that I have been trying out. I never used to set my under eye concealer and with this craze of setting powders and highlighting, I couldn't resist!! Let's get into the reviews! Ben Nye Luxury Powder in Banana This is the most talked about setting powder! I have heard everyone and their mother talking about this! This was one of the first setting powders that I purchased. I got this the first year I went to The Makeup Show Holiday Pop Up. Funny thing is, this sat for a while before I picked it up and used it. I was a little afraid of using it and thought it was going to be too bright for me. I actually really liked this. I'm still getting used to the whole highlighted look but this is pretty good one. You just have to be careful of how much you use or it can be too bri
