Let's DO it!!!!

Here are some reasons to get going. I mean bathing suit season is coming up sure, but after having children you won't catch me in one. SO, I think of this as get ready to look even better in my capris and darling short sleeved shirts this summer!!! =) It's no big magical secret that when you are healthy and active you:

a- feel better about yourself

b- feel empowered, strong

c- sleep better, did you know that??? CRAZY!!!

It can also help some people who have mild depression and low self-esteem. Like Elle said in legally blonde,"Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don't shoot their husbands, they just don't." LOL I heart that movie =). I also propose that exercise will give you more energy to put on your makeup and THAT is where I come in!!!! I have decided to start up my Jillian Michael's DVD again (No More Trouble Zones) and I am not only sticking to it but I am going to start having small "meals" a lot more often during the day. I hesitate to post an exact regime because mine might be so different than what others will do. But who's with me??? The DVD is only $9 at Walmart!!!!! It's not easy but neither is getting rid of a muffin top or jiggly under arm. YOU MUST WANT IT!!!!!! I hope you don't mind that every now and then I will post result and ask how you are doing as well. Here's to no more TROUBLE ZONES!!!!!!!

Mac vs BFTE Foundation

$26 dollar MAC foundation vs $12 Beauty From the Earth.....which is better? Let's do a little experiment shall we?

Are You All Down For a Little Test?????

Okay, it is official. After hearing all of your reviews and doing some looking on the net I am OFFICIALLY going to go out and get the Voluminous mascara. I saw a review on YouTube where a girl used a really expensive brand on one eye and then the Voluminous on the other. At the end of the day (and even through out) she kept us updated on how well the two held up. Did they flake, did they weight the lashes down. From what I could see the Voluminous was BETTER!!!! She said that they were the exact same but the one side seemed to fan out more and I am for SURE a fan of that!!! Go out if you haven't already and you can do this test with me. We will start on the 22nd of December and see what we think after a week. I want to hear comments from ALL of you. If you use it now, then tell us why you are hooked and don't want to change. If not, then tell us what you are seeing good and bad from this mascara. I'm excited!!!!! Go out and get your mascara on!!!!!!

Sponge vs Brush

Monica's question: When to use a sponge and when to use a brush?
It all depends on what type of coverage you are going for. A sponge will give you more of a full coverage whereas a brush will, most of the time, be less. If I really want to pack color on my lid I will use the applicator instead of a brush. If I want a more natural look, not only will I use a brush but I won't use a base either. For foundations it is the same but you can still get great coverage with the 187 brush if you put on more. I hope that helps!!!
