=D

no other man makes me happier...nvr has either




appreciate what you have;
appreciate a good man/woman when you see one-
don't have the mentality of, 'oh_ i can do better' (unless he/she treats you like crap)
good men/women are hard to come by...(rare actually)
sooooo if you have either one of these...
HOLD ON TIGHT____ BECAUSE if you fuck up, the NEXT one might not be so easily convinced to LET GO
(& you'll be missing out on 'what could/should have been')

ndn style

after a long, hot day in the middle of nowhere- we collapsed on the floor (& it felt amazing lol)

Me? A FOOL? I think NOT

‘Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.’
do you agree?
now, my mother (God i LOVE that woman, but she also frustrates me with her motherly ways..., being lectured as soon as I walk into the house after a long day is never a good thing...where is that wine bottle?)
she is a good Christian woman...she says, 'God says to forgive and forget' ...
i do know this...i think we all do, no matter what religion we are
but, where does trust factor in?
i know you are suppose to 'never hate someone, never hold a grudge'-
but are you suppose to let people take advantage and walk all over you?
I don't think so
how do you trust someone who has betrayed you,
someone who has no respect for you,
someone who is so selfish and upset when they can't get their way?

ANSWER:
YOU DON'T.
You'd be a FOOL to
AND I, my friends- am NOT a FOOL... never have i been, never will i be

Motivation....

is when i see
PROGRESS-
RESULTS
that's what keeps me going-
without that, i hate to say it, but i lose myself
without that, i get off track
without that, i'm just ordinary-
and that's not me

i am far from being one of these 'delusional' broads;
i know where i stand
i know my limitations
i know my place

Why & When-

Knowing When to Discard Makeup

Different types of makeup have different shelf lives. Some products have greater longevity than others, so it's important to know which products should be tossed sooner. Signs that a beauty product should be tossed immediately include any type of bad odor and if the product has changed in consistency, such as a liquid product looking thick, dry, or clumpy.

When to Toss Eye Makeup

Eye makeup is one of the most important products to keep fresh. Eye makeup tends to collect higher levels of bacteria since it is used on, in and around the eye. Using eye makeup after it should be tossed spreads that bacteria to the sensitive eye area and can cause irritation and infection.
Suggested guidelines of when to discard eye makeup:
  • Mascara and Liquid Eyeliner: These products should be replaced approximately every three months. If you use them heavily, replace them sooner.
  • Cream Eye Shadows: Discard after approximately 3 to 4 months.
  • Powder Eye Shadows and Eye Pencils: These products should be discarded between six months and one year. Discard eye shadow after 3-4 months if old applicators are re-used.
Re-using old applicators in eye shadow introduces bacteria, so use fresh disposable applicators, or use high quality makeup brushes and wash them regularly to keep bacteria at bay. Sharpen kohl eye pencils weekly to keep them fresh.
Also avoid adding water or any other foreign substances to mascara or other eye makeup. This can cause the microbial and mold growth, making the product unhygienic to use.

When to Toss Face Makeup

The foundation of your face sets the stage, and you want to keep your makeup fresh to look your best. If you're unsure of when you purchased the product, any change in color or consistency of foundation or face products can alert you when to discard makeup for a fresh face.
  • Liquid Foundations and cream to powder foundations: Discard after approximately one year.
  • Concealers with application wands or concealer sticks: Discard after approximately six months.
  • Pressed and loose powder and powder foundations: Facial powder products can last up to two years if applied with clean brushes or puffs consistently. If you are not consistent about cleaning brushes or applicator puffs, keep no more than a year.
  • Cream and Gel Blush: Liquid containing cosmetics typically need discarded sooner that dry makeup. Discard cream and gel blush after approximately six months.
  • Powder Blush: Replace powder blush between six months and one year. 

When to Discard Lip Products

Keep your pout perfectly pretty by keeping lip makeup fresh.
  • Lip Gloss: Lip gloss, especially those with wand type applicators, should be discarded after six months.
  • Lip liner and lip pencils: Discard after one year. Sharpen weekly.
  • Lipstick: Discard lipstick between six months and one year, sooner if it becomes sticky, dry, or flaky.

Other Beauty Products

  • Fragrances: Perfume, cologne, body sprays, and other fragrances have a substantial shelf life. Discard after three to five years.
  • Nail Polish: Discard after one to two years, sooner if it becomes sticky, clumpy, or difficult to apply.
  • Gel, Cream, and Liquid facial cleansers: Discard after approximately one year.

Mineral Makeup

The debate is still out on the shelf life of mineral makeup. Since ingredients do vary form brand to brand, use the recommendations specific to your brand of mineral makeup. Some experts believe mineral makeup can be safely used up to two years, while others suggest discarding it sooner. In any case, if your mineral makeup becomes wet, discard immediately.

When to Discard Cosmetics: When They're Not Right for You

Maybe you've experienced purchasing what you thought was the shade of perfect blush, or the to-die-for eye shadow, only to find out at home the color just doesn't suit you. After spending your hard earned money on makeup, it can feel tempting to keep items, even if they aren't right for you, but avoid that temptation. Discard any products immediately that don't work with your coloring, or that you just don't like.
Investing in a color consultation to find the right makeup colors for you skin tone can help you avoid making costly color mistakes, but won't solve every makeup mishap. Just know that sometimes you may end up with a product that doesn't work for you, and don't feel guilty about discarding makeup that doesn't make you look and feel fabulous!

WOW-WEEEEE- New products and such



















*new *new *new
***limited edition X3
*rare

well, where should i start?...first and foremost, lemme just say how i'm #notafan of nail polish ( i actually HATE it with a passion ) - i'm a simple girl who's a sucker for a french mani/pedi, or just clear ( like this very moment :) ...well the nails at least  ) - but i saw this at Trade Secret, and thought it would be fun for my toes...and it is ( YESsuh, i am wearing it as we speak )
moving on__________
the WONDERWOMAN collection from MAC is fab, i loved their line, but i resisted and only picked up a shade, which is my new 'everyday-stick' (thank you neha____never would we have thought that we would rock the same shade... #goodlookingout ) - not only do i love, love, L O V E this shade, but the packaging is super 'fun' ( i feel like a liddle school girl....hmmmm ~_^ )
any-who___________
they have FINALLY arrived and was waiting for me when i got home last night...
i couldn't wait to tear open the packaging...the brushes were in perfect condition #thankful-
and it came in little-to-no time ^_^
i cannot wait to use them
( oh, did i mention, i got a great deal too... can't be that )
^_^
yup yup^^

Unlike anything I've ever experienced____

*You're like NOBODY-
since I LOVE YOU*

Night & Day

*so, i'm beating myself over the head here tryna come up with names for these 2 looks...
the first look is more for the night,
and the second is more daytime...
the night has more charcoal and black shadow (and yes, i absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE black eyeshadow, that is a MUST in MY M/U bag)
the daytime has no black, a lil charcoal (but if you only have blk, use very lil), there is also pink and some shimmer to soften the look
*tip- i love a smokey effect, not necessarily blk/charcoal-ish colors, but something to pull ppl in
( lighter skin tones- lean towards more browns, plums
darker skin tones- i like more khaki-olive, dk browns )
- it gives off a more seductive/sultry effect
