Break Style...

Today I am sporting some of my festive new eye shadow! I think I finally found the perfect shade of brown that can be dressed up or fairly natural!

And wow do I have a Jay Leno chin in that picture!!

And I finally got some decent hair product that is actually working with the frizz!! I realized this morning that if I didn't have to do my hair I would save so much time in the morning! And I don't even spend that much time on it compared to other girls.
But when you add in having to put leave in conditioner on it before you comb so the tangles aren't as bad, combing through the mess, then putting curl mousse and gel cream on it. Not to mention blow drying it juuust right to where its still damp but not dripping and then straightening the bangs and shellacking the whole thing with hairspray.
Whew I'm tired just thinking about it! 4 total products used after the shower! Its no wonder i get super hot while I'm getting ready! I am proud to say though even with all that it only takes me 40 mins from getting out of bed to ready.

And finally my outfit today! Its the next to last day of break and while we're on break we get to do casual friday everyday! WHOO HOOOO!!!!! Its nice because its SO HOT outside I think I would melt into a puddle of sweat if i had to wear dress pants. Next week is definately going to be skirts all week long!!

THanks!! I am slowly but surely growing it out!!

After I get out of the shower I spray it with INfusium 23 leave in conditioner before i comb it with a supe wide comb.

Then I put some frizz ease mousse ( take charge- curl boosting mousse) in it and scrunch that around.

After that I put right on top of it a new product my mom got me, ok so she got all of these on sale on walgreens but details :)

Aveeno Nourish and stile soft hold gel-creme.

Mousse alone doesn't hold the frizz back now that its longer and gel alone makes it kind of crunchy and for me not as curly. but this gel creme stuff or the garnier fructtisse stuff is really good.

then i blow dry it and scrunch it and straighten my bangs and shellack the whole thing with tressemme hair spray. aerosal and i do the fine mist, always sold hold!

what do you use?

and how do you get your hair dry in the morning? mine is always wet but if i dry it too much it gets gross and frizzes out and loses its curl. my hair needs a therapist!

January Recap

  Tap, Tap, Tap. Is this thing on? No, your eyes aren't deceiving you, I'm back blogging after almost a year of not posting anything. I did a month long Prayer and Fasting with my church and abstained from Social Media (more about that to come) and during that time I realized I really missed blogging! So here I am! Clearly I'm rusty at this because I managed to upload my pictures in the opposite order, and I'm too lazy to go through and move each and every one of them, so we are going to look back at the month of January from the end to the start! Let's go! The Last day of January was a busy one. Well for me at least, after spending most of 2022 on my parents couch, inbetween surgeries, doing anything is busy for me. I had a piano tuning for Old faithful, my new to me baby grand, so I hung out in my bedroom while my tuner was there, and worked on my laptop. Before that I had my 1 year Brow touch up with Marissa at Lafayette Microblading. It had actually been over a

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t

Frugal Friday- (Some) Tips and Tricks on how I get the most bang for my buck

(Shoutout to Ollies for the perfect Picture for this blog post) Remember when it was January and I said I was going to blog more this year? Well, it's now December, and I haven't blogged since January so clearly that goal went out the window.  BUT! I am here blogging today to share something I'm passionate about! And that is SAVING MONEY! And spending the least amount of money on things. Listen, the lower the price of something is, the more I like it.  I was waxing poetic about this subject to a friend on Marco Polo this week and decided that I felt the need to share it with the world. So, world, (or the three people who read my blog) You're Welcome. Sidenote: These are just some of the ways I stretch my dollars and get money back from purchases. Some of these have referral codes that if you join from them I get some sort of a reward, and some don't have codes, or I'm just not cool enough to know where to find them. Use the code, don't use the code, but plea
