HAPPY NEW YEAR!

MAC Pink Friday - Nicki Manaj Lip Stick

I've been developing this thing for Nicki Manaj. Theres something about her I LOVE!

On black friday MAC released the Nicki Minaj Pink 4 Friday limited edition lipstick and is only available for 4 fridays. I love pink shades of lip stick because it seems to be a color I can always pull off.
Im feeling like this is a product I HAVE to HAVE!!!

The lip stick is such a pretty bright shade of pink in a creamy formula to make the lips appear and feel smooth, which I read, is supposed to be trendy for spring 2011.  <3

Mulberry for Target

I've been hearing everyone rave about the Mulberry for Target. The bags are so nice! I really would love to get a couple for myself. Since Christmas is coming up right around the corner, I've been thinking about getting my mom one because she loves purses a lot and I know she will absolutely love a Mulberry. Plus I might stick a bunch of makeup in it to make it more fun for her. Im really excited now! Im definitely going to buy one for myself as well <3

Thick Skin or Heart Break

IM BACK!

I've been pretty busy with school. work, and baby. I moved into my new place in Hollywood. It's little but nice, just need to decorate and make it homey. I haven't had internet for the longest time, which i was dying without! I've been wanting to blog about my classes at school and all the new work i've done. I will be posting pictures soon!

Cheap Makeup

A while ago I bought some eye shadows for a dollar each from down town LA, Fashion District. I got them to use for school since it's just practice and we take off our makeup as soon as we put it on to start on another look so I really didn't want to let the good stuff go to waste. The colors aren't that bad. For a dollar they're actually pretty pigmented. Being busy with my newborn and all, I really haven't put a lot of makeup on since I took my maternity leave from school 3 months ago, so I decided to put some on last night and get a little practice.

Postpartum Weight Loss

I gained about 40 pounds with my pregnancy!! i was only trying to gain just 25 but that was hard because I was always hungry. When I had my baby girl, the first week 20 pounds came off like nothing but im sure this was because when i was pregnant I was completely on my own in LA with no car and everything wasnt that far from where i lived, so i just walked everywhere. Then at the end of a super long day of school and 2 jobs, id come home and stretch and maybe do some leg and arm exercises. I tried my hardest to stay in the best shape as possible while I was pregnant.
Today I am exactly 2 mos postpartum and have been working out for 3 weeks already and have ONLY lose 6 pounds. I've realized this is a lot harder then I thought it would be but I need to stick to it because I REFUSE to let my self go just because im a mom now.

One product that I have been using since the week I gave birth and has helped a lot... is the Belly Bandit. It is as good as it looks and sounds because IT WORKS!! Instantly I saw my waist/stomach take its form back and that gut i all of a sudden had after having baby, went away. Belly bandit helped get my stomach flat again and not only that, it also helped me with my posture a gave support to my back while breast feeding and constantly picking up and holding my baby. I would recommend this to anyone after having a baby, especially for csection and you can wear it as soon as the day after you give birth.
