kitchen facial + daddy's girl

With jobs not accessible and the economy not getting better a spa is not an option. Here is a facial mask you can make from your own kitchen and medicine cabinet. This is a pretty popular facial, it was done by makeup guru (youtube) Michelle Phan and many others. I wanted to share with you my experience with this. The ingredients: Honey -a spoon full or less Asprin (uncoated!) water 1tsp *Make sure your skin does not have an allergic/bad reaction to this. Apply a little first and then continue if skin does not feel irritated. 1. You put three asprins in with water. Wait til it dissolves. It should not take long. 2. Then add honey. 3. Mix and apply to your face. 4. Wait 15 min and then remove from your face. Rinse off! Afterthoughts That is it! It is a pretty simple facial. I like that it's easy to make. Applying it was a little more difficult. The asprin is supposed to be an exfoliate. I did not think that. The asprin dissolved completely and it was just water ...

celebrating and giving

If you are a friend on facebook or follow me on twitter then I told you there will be special blogs this month! I'm almost 25 years old. Only 22 days left of being 24. I never make a big deal about my birthday. This year will be different! To celebrate I will post 25 pictures of me- from baby to present. This may be embarrassing for me. But it should be soo much fun for all of you! Ah haha. Also, if you are wanting to give me a present below is my wishlist. Picture #1- Baby! Baby! Babyyyyy! I still have those big cheeks-Grr.

Each ShelterBox supplies an extended family with a tent and essential equipment to use while they are displaced or homeless.(shelter...

ootd: be a tough girl

Top & Blazer: Express Pants: Gap Jewlery: Touch of Glamour Bag: shop in DC At least I'm looking tougher than usual in this ensemble. No? Well I tried. I'm about as tough as chocolate in the heat. teehee. If you're curious about the outfit being too hot for East coast weather, it is. I like wearing jackets and cardigans into the office. The jacket keeps me warm and trendy. I just got these pants. Brand new from Gap. They only had these in black because they are "trying them out". I guess they will order more if women/girls like them. I sure do! I was hoping for more colors. These are the new skinny pants, not jeans. I love skinny jeans and it's so exciting to see skinny pants for the office. Are they appropriate for the office? I haven't had evil looks. I'll assume that is an OKAY! The fit is flattering and is so much more comfy than any of my other pants. If you are petite you may want to alter it. With my heels they are good, but if you like...

vlog #2: family moments and shopping

Last weekend was pretty filled with family and shopping. In this vlog you will see some of my family shopping and having some fun quality time together. We went to visit some family in Raleigh, not too far from us, and they were so awesome to take me out shopping at their mall. The mall had some amazing stores like Sephora and H&M. And on this vlog are some funny moments with me and my girl friend Allison. Enjoy! Thanks for watching. BTW vlogging is hard work. uploading/editing these videos are HARD WORK. It's an all day process. I give huge props to all those youtube gurus that do this! The hardest part was uploading- it takes soo much patience and that is not what i have. I think I will stick to blogging! Also I realized by doing this vlog how much of a dork i am ^_^ ...you dont have to let me know LOL.
