E.L.F. * got2b * Wet n Wild -- Hual !





I was with my daughter the other day and I had to run in CVS and dang if something beautiful didn't catch my eye! A SALE sign!LOL  Yes it woo me in and attacked my emotions, so this is what I ended up with. You wouldn't believe the awesome prices I got on these products, So I even took pictures of my receipts for you guys to show how much I saved. I just went crazy in there. Oh yeah and Ariana got 2 little glitter eye shadows. Then I went to K-Mart. I don't know if there is a K-Mart everywhere but yeah they're actually pretty reasonable. I went crazy in there too. OK not as bad as CVS.  I have been using the got2b products for about a week now and I'm super happy with them. My hair is naturally curly and I have a lot of frizz and it has actually eliminated so much of it! I wear all these products at one time and it doesn't make my hair oily or weighed down. :) I will probably do some looks and post pictures. I know i got 2 foundation brushes but they were only $1.00 each and I love brushes. That's the only thing that wasn't on my receipts and I got them from Dollar General. I just wanted to share this with you guys and I hope you enjoy my small haul. Email me with any questions :)

Urban Decay Primer Lotion Review

I'm not going to lie I didn't get to use the Urban Decay Primer Lotion but a few days days last week that's why I haven't done a review yet. However I did wear it over the weekend when it was 97 degrees outside and I would have to say so far its holding up. I'm getting to wear it this week and it seems to be a great product. :) So if you want to try it I got mine from Sephora and it wasn't that expensive either. Until next time....

P.S. OMG I really didn't want to tell anybody this but oh well lol everybody does it. the other night I slept in my makeup I was just so freaking tired and I slept with my makeup on. And you ll never guess what!! My eye makeup was still perfect. I couldn't believe it lol but anyways that's it.

Pure Ice Nail Polish




Well yesterday I blogged about Pure Ice nail polish in Splash and it made me want to go buy some more! lol I love this nail polish! It is only $2.00 a bottle. Its very affordable and you can just run to Walmart and get it at anytime. I love the fact that you can just get together change and get some polish lol. Sorry talking about those broke days. Yesterday I bought 6 new bottles, I got Rosebud, Spit Fire, Celestial, Beware, Busted and Don't You Wish. They're all very beautiful colors and I'll be having fun with my mini me painting nails this weekend since I got on to myself earlier for neglecting my fingers and toes. So I'll be showing you guys through out the week :) Chow!

I Don't Want To Be @ Work Today!

Today it's really hard for me to be at work! I feel aggravated because I'm feeling unappreciated and like I'm not doing anything right. When some one puts you down it makes you not want to do your best. Why do people feel like they have to put someone else down or make them feel like shit to make theirselves feel better and in control. I have never thought I was better then anyone because I appreciate the differences in people. Everyone is different for a reason, to have their own personality. I love everybody and I am always willing to listen :) I just wanted to blog about how I felt today and now I actually feel better because I'm talking to my good friend Monica H. She is the best lol. She lives in California and I'm so sad she left Georgia  :( She came here from California because her husband is military. Now that her husband is in Korea she moved back home :( I miss her !! OK I'm done talking for now lol. See ya later!

Kim Kardashian - Fit In Your Jeans By Friday !




Today I am going to start the Fit In Your Jeans By Friday routine. I'm so excited :) I've been wanting to try this video for a while now and I'm so excited that I got it for my birthday from My Babe. lol I know it's a little weird getting a exercise video for your birthday but I really wanted it. I really would love to be very toned because right now everything jiggles and I'm not liking that so much. I have a almost 8 year old and I would love to have the energy she has to be able to keep up with her. So I have decided to start this routine today and I'll be giving you guys a review on Saturday because that will be my full 5 days actually doing the routines. I also do simple exercise in the morning with my boss which I'll blog about that separate so I can give you guys the day by day routine I have actually started as of this Monday 8/23/10. So I will update you guys on Saturday :) See ya!

Tuesdays Exercise Routine

Today you have 4 exercises to do but its still only 10 minutes. If your like me you don't have a lot of time to invest in your self but I can definitely use 10 minutes for myself. So here we go with Tuesday guys.


1. Wrist Curls - This exercise focuses on the forearms. They're also very effective at strengthening you wrist and hands. Try to get as much range of motion as possible.


2. Shrugs - Let the weights hang at your sides and raise your shoulders as high as you can. Hold for a second, then lower them back down.


3. Double Curls - Curl the weights up to your shoulders and slowly lower them back to your hips.


4. Two Arm Row - This is a back exercise. Raise and lower the weights from several different angles to more effectively work the back muscles.


OK guys that's day two, Please let me know if you have any questions OK. I'll post again in the morning for Wednesday :) Feedback is appreciated so if you have any tips of your own let me know! I love to hear from you.

Mondays Exercise Routine

Because Monday has already come and gone I'm going to go ahead and post for Mondays Simple 10 minute exercise. Just keep up the good work and I promise you'll see great results :)
Remember ONLY 10 minutes!


1. Sit Ups - Do one set of about 20 repetitions. If you can't do all 20 at first, just do as many as you can. When 20 gets to be too easy, slow down to make the exercise harder. Don't pull on the back of your head. It doesn't help.


2. Bench Press - Raise and lower the weights from several different angles to thoroughly work the chest muscles. Elbows in. Elbows out wide.

3. Squats-Keep - Keep your chin up and your back arched as you do this exercise. Do 15 to 20 reps. Let your thighs come down parallel to the floor before pressing back up.

Let me know what you guys think of Mondays routine, I love feed back :)

Day 1 Honey Review


Yesterday I did a blog on honey and sugar remedies. Well as you all know last night I tried the honey all over my face and as I was doing it I called my boss to let her know. This is the honey I used. I git it from IGA for like $1.00, not expensive at all.Well I left the honey on my face for about 2-2 1/2 hours and OMG my face was so soft afterwards! I did notice that my blemishes were lighter and when I woke up this morning the left side of my face was clear. I couldn't believe it! I went to work and my boss was like I tried the honey on my face and look the red in my bumps are lighter and it's so soft. I couldn't help but laugh because we both were very excited. So I'm going to try it again tonight only on the right side where the blemishes faded to see if they will clear all the way up and I'll let you guys know tomorrow! Until then love you guys and have a great night.

Honey and Sugar Remedy

Do you guys try remedies? I do lol. I can't help it I just want to see if they work. So Joe the maintenance guy at my job gave me this paper and was like you should read this I was like ok. Its about sugar and honey healing cuts, scraps and burns. Very interesting stuff so what I thougt was hmmmm if it will heal cuts it may help acne because after you squeeze your acne it's like a cut right? So I get the best idea ever I put the honey all over my face and oh man it's so sticky! I have never touched honey in my life and its pretty thick feeling. But anyways its suppose to heal withing like 1-3 days so I figure if I leave it on for a couple of hours today and tomorrow after work do the same thing maybe it just might work! So I will let you guys know if it does :) You can read this information at http://www.alsearsmd.com/ he has all kinds of ways to natural healing. Check him out :)

Being Negative Isn't Cute.



Why do people think you want to hear all the negative things they have to say? I mean I want you to cheer me up not make me wish I wouldn't have answered my phone. Ugh! Call me and tell me the good things that happen and then tell me what bad happen to YOU, not someone else. I love to talk and I will talk all day long but some people all they do is complain. I can listen all you want but if I give you my point of view on your situation and you don't like my answer, don't look at me crazy. Hell I'm not the one who is asking for the advise LOL. You should look at everything from all angles that way you feel like you have options and not stuck in a situation. Look at everything as a learning experience and if it's a bad one well you know what not to do next time :) Well I have to go for now See ya!

CVS Haul

I love to shop! Not a certain store not a certain brand just shopping in general and I honestly don't care what its for as long as I get to shop. Today we ordered pizza from Papa Johns (the best pizza ever!) and my babe was suppose to go get it and bring it back home well he was like I'm going to stop by CVS and get some milk. I jumped up so fast he didn't know what was going on lol. Its hilarious now that I'm thinking about it but I wanted to go look around. I bout some hair lotion by got2b (Aren't the charms so cute?), I wanted to try this foundation by Maybelline The Super Stay Makeup to see how good it works because it says on the bottle that it's micro flex, withstands heat, sweat, and humidity! Living in Georgia I definitely need that lol. Also your not suppose to be able to rub it off and of course oil-free yes! I have super oily skin so I try to use everything oil-free because I break out so easily and when I do.... Man its bad! Ok so I also got the Revlon PhotoReady translucent Finisher Powder and I hope that works too because Ive never tried that before either. And last I got some Scunci bands because all my Walmart brand rubber bands stretch out, I hate that! Hope you guys enjoyed reading my blog today :)

Blogging vs. Youtube

Learning to really Love Myself the way I am, No makeup, no done up hair, just ME!


I really love to blog and do youtube videos but I think I'm more comfortable blogging. I'm more comfortable to say what's on your mind and write it down then try to say it and everybody watch. I've always liked writing my feelings and writing letters better then saying it. I don't know why it's just easier for me. I really like doing the youtube videos too but I feel weird talking to the camera and I notice things about myself lol. Like for example I swear I never knew I talked from the right side of my mouth! I made a video and watched it and got really upset and called my mom and was like did you ever notice I talk out of the right side of my mouth? She was like yes you've always done that. I was really self concious about it at first but then I really thought about it I was like if I've been talking like this all my life then why be embarassed about it now. Hell I'm southern so it will just match my accent lol. What I'm writing is very personal to me and I just wanted to share this because sometimes the things that you don't like about yourself  are what make you differnt! So now I love doing the videos but there hard because you cant just sit there and think of what to say then type it your actually recording yourself lol. Talk to you guys later ;)

Ms. Ashawntay



My Sis/Bestie Ashawntay is pregnant with her first baby!! How exciting is that?! She is having a baby girl and her due date is November 13, 2010. My Sis is beautiful and the dad he looks ok (just kidding) but I'm sure her beauty genes will take over because her mom is very beautiful too. She is also a model and is very photogenic so world be ready for another model in another few months lol. While being pregnant I have only heard her complain about eating everything and her face being big. She was so petite and she's not use to having actual weight on her I told her finally she has hips like me lol. I just wanted to blog about her to tell her that she is beautiful and she is going to be a great mom. She has the biggest heart I know and tries to help anyone and hates to ask for help herself. I always have to tell her "I'm not hearing it." I love you and I can't wait to see you soon and we will probably be texting later lol.

Urban Decay Eye Primer



Today I went to Sephora and I bought the Urban Decay Eye Primer for $19.26 with tax, not a bad price if it works well for me and they gave me a free gift since my birthday was yesterday. Awwww that was sweet lol. I've seen so many girls use it on their videos and sometimes at the end of the day I feel like my eye makeup isn't as pretty as when I first put it on. So I wanted fix it :) So I'll be using it for this week and let you guys know what I think about it. I know it works well for others but every ones skin is different and some time products just don't work for others. So I'll be blogging a review about my skin and Urban Decay Eye Primer on Friday :) Until next time...
