Oh no she didn't. Oh yes she did. Yup. I FINALLY did it. One of my most requested things. A makeup tutorial. I finally jumped in and shared it. I don't have a professional set up, not a full time vlogger, but I did grab a chair, set up my laptop camera, and away we went, together, on a live video, as I got ready this past Saturday morning. I EVEN in fact, fixed a little bit of my hair on camera as well. I didn't put this gem of a … [Read more...]
My Favorite Highlighters To Glow All Year
We don't have to be in the summer months to glow. As much as I try to hang on to summer for as long as I can, I will always always want to reach for that golden glow. When you can't get the sun, go for the highlighters right? It's about how the light hits our face and gives us that "been in the sun" glow... even if we don't have that golden been-to-the-tropics tan! LOL! I'm going to share some pictures with you so you can see more of … [Read more...]
Simple Glam Makeup Tutorial
Sometimes less is more. And sometimes glam needs to be glam. But not always does glam have to be complicated. I recently had a formal evening out and wanted a glam sleek look. Of course as overly abundantly scheduled I've been lately, booking a hair and makeup appointment was something I looked over. And I will say that I've been blessed by an amazing mom who was in beauty for over 40 years. I grew up as a little girl in awe of her beauty … [Read more...]
Out Of Office: Out To Market
If you can dream it, you can do it. YGG! You Go Girl! Unstoppable! Why can't that be you! All those things. Blah blah blah... Ya ya we've heard them all, and ya ya... I talk about that stuff.. a LOT. Why? Because I believe in that shit. I do. So much so that I taught my daughter to believe that shit. And WAY back when (not that long ago) she started a little business out of our kitchen that is now a full fledged big … [Read more...]

Longer Lashes In One Month
I haven't had my makeup professionally done, all but maybe just a few times. And one of the things about having my makeup done that I've fallen in love with is false eyelashes. I don't know what it is about them that I'm kinda obsessed with them. Not so much the false lashes as much as the longer lashes on my eyes themselves. I tried wearing "falsies" by applying them myself. It didn't look the best. But the one thing that came from each … [Read more...]
Beauty Basics: Makeup From The Drugstore
I am a beauty junkie and I love all things beauty related. From hair products and hair styles, to nails, to lips, to makeup, to our even products for our body. And anything to turn back the hands of time, right? I was thinking about the reason why I don't do too many beauty posts here is because I'm a creature of habit. I share what I'm using and love what I use and pretty much stick to it. When it comes to the bigger things, that is. Nails … [Read more...]
Drugstore Deal: Foundation
Two things. First. Today I'm coming out to tell you what I use for makeup. Second. It pays to speak up and speak your mind when you see something you like on someone. I can't tell you how many awesome new amazing things I've purchased, learned about or tried because I spoke up and commented or asked a stranger about something they had. Well, such is the case with makeup when I asked a lady styling my hair about a year and a half ago … [Read more...]
