Oh *Happy* Sunday! :D

Hey lovelies!!! How you doing *Wendy Williams voice* It's been a loong week with report cards, ptc, half days, so much. Did you guys hear about Hurricane Sandy though? They even cancelled school just in case it gets really bad. I have my bottled water, and I'm charging my Ipod & phone just in case it gets CRAZY. Outside is just windy, gray, and depressing, so I started playing with some of my makeup. One goal of mine is to get better at winged eyeliner. I want to be able to do thin line, fat line, cat line lol all of that. So the makeup I am wearing is 
FACE: Mac Concealer, Elf Mineral Concealer
EYES: LA COLORS PENCIL (bronze shimmer), Elf Cream Eyeliner
LIPS: Wet N Wild Spotlight Red ( FIRST RED LIP I TRIED AND CAN I SAY WIN?!?!?!)

Well that is pretty much it for today.. Outfits coming soon!!
Until next time... MUAH!!

Jam Sessions on Friday Nights? YASS! (My Gospel Edition)

Hey loveliess!!! How was your day today? Mines went by good beside cramps in my stomach >.<

Well it's a Friday night and tomorrow is church. So I'm trying to get an outfit together, because I could never be on time to save my life. I'm also trying out this new hairstyle, so if it comes out well, expect a tutorial coming up :)

Right now I'm jamming on Pandora to my gospel music. So many things go on every week, and it feels so good to just relax at the end of the week & praise God. Ain't nothing better. Here are some songs that I am loving right now. Listen to some!! I promise you will love them :D

1) Friend of God- Israel and the New Breed2) He Won't Leave You- Richard Smallwood3) Worthy is the Lamb- Hillsong4) I Survive- Mary Mary5) Total Praise- Richard Smallwood6) Lord Prepare Me- West Angeles Cogic Mass Choir7) I Need You Now- Smokie Norful8) Center of My Joy- Richard Smallwood9) How Excellent (Psalm 8)- Richard Smallwood10) For Every Mountain- Amber Bullock Version11) Thank You Lord- Walter Hawkins

Some of these songs are my all time time favorite and I SING my heart out when I hear them in the shower haha. I hope you guys enjoy this!! 

Muah!!!! 

October 2012 Length Check (Natural Hair)

Hey lovelies!! How was your day today? My ultimate natural hair goal is for my hair to be naturally curly at shoulder length. *dreams away happily* My weakness, however, is the beautiful flat iron. I acknowledge the fact that I do have a problem with the flat iron (the first step is admitting it), but how could I not? We have so much history together! My flat iron and I confessed our love for each other...
LOL okay. That was too much fun. Back to the topic. I just took some pictures of my hair stretched. One thing that I wish I did was measure but I was not thinking at the time. I will definitely do it for the November 2012 Length Check. Here are some pics:







The brown is my natural hair color growing out. The red/brown is from hair dye *sigh*

Well until next time... Muah!!

My STRUGGLE for the perfect foundation :(

Hey Lovelies!! How was your day today?

You know what? I'm so tired of my makeup melting off my face by the end of the day! As you know, I have an issue with dark spots. My darkest acne scars are on my right cheek. So I figured in the morning that I will apply my regular foundation (Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in either 210 or 220) then I take a little more and put it on my cheeks so it could look decent. I then set it with some Fashion Fair Translucent Topaz powder that I have. It's all fine at first, but I don't know where.in.the.day. it starts to melt. Then at the end of the day all my spots show :( *sigh*

I always felt that I had bad luck with makeup recently just like my phones. Whyyyyy meeeeeeeee.


I don't know what to do. Do you guys have any suggestions for foundations that are affordable but good coverage? Please tell me POR FAVOR!!! Lol. I already know the powder I want to get which is the Ben Nye Translucent Powder. I heard so much good reviews on it.

Well this was my mini rant. I hope you enjoyed it even though it was mostly depressing haha.

Natural Hairstyle: My Totally Twisted Twist Out!!

Hey lovelies!! How are you today? During the past two weeks, I have been rocking the twist out. It was actually an accidental style for me, because this was the first time it came out right! This style is so easy but so cute!
Here are the steps that used to achieve my Totally Twisted Twist Out
(Also I have on no makeup so please excuse my struggling face scars and my desire to try on red lipstick lol)


1) Start off with freshly washed, dried hair. This was the same day I did my I did my Natural Curly Hair Routine.

2) Start doing a two strand twist. Personally, I do not section off with a comb. I usually take a medium size chunk of hair throughout my whole head.

This is when I was halfway done :)

Fully done
                                                                             Front view
                                                                              The back

                             3) When everything is finished, I spray some Olive Oil Sheen Spray to lock in some moisture for when I sleep.
                      
                                       
4) I put on my head tie so that the braids don't unloosen while I sleep.

 The next morning: I just untwisted them carefully and tried not to puff them out too much. I also used my afro pick so my roots would lift.
                                                                       
 THE FINAL RESULTS!! :)







I was so excited with the final result. Every one in school kept asking me if it was my real hair O__o , but they did say that they liked it.

Well that's it for today. I hope you guys enjoyed this ^.^ Until next time guys.. Muah!!!

Outfit Of The Day: A Not So Gloomy Tuesday.


Hey beauties!! How was your day today? This morning the weather was so nasty *.*. It was kind of gloomy during half the day, not to mention cold. Then all of a sudden as soon as I left school, the sun came out of nowhere and warmed up the place! That was the highlight of my whole day. Today's outfit was very simple. I wanted to keep it a black and white kind of day.

New Natural Curly Hair Routine for SHORT HAIR! (It's cheap too!)

Hey everybody!! How you been? I have not updated in a while because school is taking up most of my time. But no worries, I'm back :) I took out my box braids about two weeks ago, then straightened out my hair. So a wash was DEFINITELY calling my name. I tried out some products, one that I brought recently and it's safe to say that I'm in love. So here are my steps.
Products: Olive Oil Sheen Spray, Eco Styler Moroccan Argan Oil Styling Gel, Olive Oil Edge Control, Afro Pick.


1. Make sure that you start off with clean & washed hair. It is your choice to use shampoo or not. For me, I shampoo about once a month. Any other time I just co-wash with any conditioner.
2. While you hair is slightly damp, apply an ALCOHOL FREE gel. This is VERY important. Using one with alcohol will just dry up your hair and make it super crunchy. Boo. Apply the gel all over your hair. Make sure to scrunch and get in those hard to reach areas. The gel that I use is the Eco Styler Morrocan Argan Oil Styling Gel. You can find this at any beauty supply store. (Review coming soon)
3. (Optional) Slick down your edges using any edge control of any kind. I use Olive Oil Edge Control. (Make sure it's alcohol free)
4. (Optional) Add your favorite hair accessory. I just use a regular black headband for a sleek look.
5. If your the person that likes extra volume with your hair this is the perfect touch. I learned this on Youtube. Take your afro pick or teaser comb and lift your roots. This will make your hair look voluminous, nice, and healthy.

6. The last step is to add a little shine. I blast about two sprays of my olive oil sheen spray and I'm good to go.




The pics below were taken around 10 p.m. I did my routine around 2 p.m. the same day.

I LOVE the way it looks here!
