On A Personal Note...

Okay, that was a funny April fool's joke when it snowed yesterday lol. Mother Nature needs to make up her mind, is Winter over yet or what? 

I can't believe it is April already, Summer will be here before we know it and I'm not bathing suit ready yet lol. I have been proud of myself lately for sticking to these weekly goals I have been setting for myself. I started with drinking tea during the week and saving coffee for the weekend. I have been sticking to it but got coffee a couple times last week. I also made a schedule for myself for blogging, filming, editing and so on, I have just been so all over the place and unorganized, it was driving me crazy. I have been posting these weekly goals on my Insta Stories. 

I am taking things one step at a time and slowing getting it together. I just overwhelmed myself and thought I could fix everything at once lol. Yea, what was I thinking? I had to remember to be patient and wait on things and take things one step and one day at a time. You can't rush things and definitely don't want to rush life. 

I'm also excited for the new things coming to the blog and changes. I have been really thinking about some new series, post, video and everything lol. I love blogging, filming, creating content and so on. It makes me happy and I just enjoy doing this. The new schedule is Tuesday will be regular post like this or product review and Thursdays and every other Friday will be videos. I still need to do my giveaway for hitting 100 subs on YouTube. 

I'm just excited that things are going in a good direction and I'm getting more organized. It just feels good when you feel like you are making progress. Hope you guys have a great start to the week and see you Thursday!

HAVE YOU CHECKED OUT MY MARCH COCOTIQUE AND ONYX BOX??

My son had a great Easter, of course he was hyper from the jelly beans and other candy lol. 

I'm going to IMATS this year and I'm excited! The last time I was there was about 2 years I think.

  1. I'm glad your son had a great easter. Having a set schedule definitely makes things alot easier blog wise. I have set days that I post but my YouTube schedule is not as organized. I really need to strap back down on my diet! It's great you are sticking to your goals!

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!  ...
