BZZAGENT ON NEW BZZ- Schick Hydro Silk Sensitive care Razor

Hello Beauties. I recently received my Bzzagent package. It contains the Schick Hydro Silk Sensitive care razor.


as we all know and do, we let our legs in the winter get a nice reprieve from the spring and summer and sometimes fall shaving.

 After all most of us are sporting pants, sweats, jeans and our legs do not necessarily have to be smooth. ( I do not care if you have a mate or not, they just have to understand).

  My legs have a tendency to get real bushy. Though most people cannot tell because it is blond, I know its there. My boyfriend knows its there so I am looking forward to seeing how this schick razor will take care of my 3 foot 4 inches long stems. Yes I am hairy... I am human.

 Anyhoo, I cannot wait to show you all how this razor will hold up to me shaving. Hopefully, the razor will not get dull. ;-) I received this Item being a bzzagent. You can sign up at Bzzagent.com #GotItFree

2014 - Life's what you make it

Hey beauties. For those that are still here. Thanks for sticking around.

I hope 2013 was a good year for all of you. For me it was definitely more of a time for introspection and slow growth. But growth is growth.

Life is what you make it so do your best at everything. Obstacles are only put in your way to see how you will handle them.

Stay gorgeous beauties and welcome a new chapter of your life.



 Hey 2014!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great snack for my new healthy consciousness

I know you lovelies saw yesterday that  I have started my gym regimen. Well , My sister ( that's what I call her) has her own granola business. She makes the most delicious granola I have ever had.  The granola is handmade and made to your specifications.

Her site is Thegranoladiva.com. You can choose your carats and gemstones. I personally love that she calls the ingredients that just so it feels more special.

I was lucky enough to get a bar named after me but I recommend you lovelies place an order and try for yourselves.

You will not regret it .

Back to Fitness...

Hey My Beauties!!!  I do hope that fall has been going well for most of you. I have been in the Midwest now for 3 months and it has been a transition. My job has been running me ragged so no real time to get myself into a workout routine.

I have not been in a gym in about 9 years. Though I have worked out off and on, i need to get back to being healthy.

I joined Planet Fitness a week ago and I went there today for the first time today. I decided for my own personal reasons to start slow. Being what is considered "looking healthy" doesn't necessarily mean you are.


I did the treadmill for 30 mins and then 15 mins of triceps.

I know I have to tackle getting in shape slowly but it was totally worth it. I got my burst of post workout energy and did my household chores afterwards.

What I do love about Planet Fitness is that there is no judging. Everyone is there to get themselves in shape and whatever that means to them.

I look forward to doing different workout everyday and getting myself up to an hour a day. I am realistic and since this will be new for me again, I am not going to drive myself crazy.


Be Gorgeous. Be Wonderful, Be You.

Water Water Everywhere and Lush is taking a stand to keep it that way

Hey My Beauties.

Today  I am going to focus on something a bit more environmental.  As you know, we are always trying to find better ways to protect our planet. We recycle, use surge protectors, turn off lights when we leave the room, bike ride and more.  We are also becoming more conscious of what we eat and drink.

A commodity that we take for granted is water. Water washes us and quenches our thirst yet most of the world does not have clean access to it.

Well water is a basic human right and Lush Cosmetics has a campaign called take back the tap. They want people to become better recyclers by not purchasing bottled water.
 

They want us to use reusable bottles to drink water and basically drinking water from the tap. Though bottled water is easy, most of the times we are not really great at recycling those bottles  and they end up in landfills.  We all know that plastic takes forever to break down so why not be better.

just a few tidbits for you
1) tap water is under more stringent regulation and standards than bottled water.
2) most bottled water is usually tap water .
3) Reusing a BPA free and Aluminum bottle saves money
4) Unfortunately, the process for making plastic containers do have some low levels of chemicals in them.

Why not help yourself while helping the environment and stop buy a LUSH and pick up a reusable water bottle.
$12.95 and $5.00 goes to help support three charities that are working to preserve water and water habitats

Keeping it Clean----- Helpful hints for the beauty shopper

Hey Beauties. I hope that this summer is not stressing your skin out or causing your deodorant to go into overdrive.

Today's blog is all about keeping it sanitary when shopping for Beauty products.

Working for a beauty retailer has truly opened my eyes to how people shop. Do not get me wrong. I have worked in retail long enough to know that most people these days are horrible shoppers with no regard for anyone but themselves. Notice I said most.  There are few who were raised properly and still respect where they shop and where they work.

Beauty shops do have it the hardest because everyone wants to try everything.



 Unfortunately, most people are not very clean.



Dipping their hands and fingers into testers and even "live" product with no regard for the fact that every beauty place has cotton swabs,  mascara brushes, eyeshadow wands, lip stick wands, cotton rounds and more.

I would really love to know why people revert to treating places like its their home. You want to stick your fingers in your own product that is completely your own business but when you are out and about show some respect for the business.

Here are a few ideas that will help in your quest as you shop.

1) Seek out the demo stations. Sephora is infamous for having those stations in every shop with brushes galore.

2) If you happen not to see any brushes, ask. I guarantee there is an associate around who will be more than glad to help you out.

3) If you have an opportunity, wash your hands. You have been out either driving, taking mass transit or just being outside. Germs are everywhere.

4) Buy and try at home.  Find out what the return policy is. Most companies have 30 days and hold on to your receipt. ( make sure to remember that )

Hope this helps my beauties.

Stay Cool

Happy Mother's day

Hey my beauties. As you know, May has begun which only leaves 10 shopping days till Mother's day ( you know, your life giver). We all know each mom is different but I have found a few sites and products that I think every mom may love.

For the Mom that is always on the go, here are a few ideas to help her relax.
Lush cosmetics has beautiful gift sets for mom and my recommendation is A Mother's Day in Paradise 
Let mom relax at a cost of $56.95


This gift has the Secret garden bath Bomb, The comforter bubble bar, Ro's argan body conditioner, Sultana soap, Lemony Flutter cuticle butter, Dream Cream body lotion, Mumkin Bubble Bar and the Madame Butterfly reusable bubble bar. This gift has the scent of Rose, Lavender, Lemon and Jasmine. This will make mom let her worries flow down the drain while the scents just relax her mind.

If your mom loves jewelry, let Pandora Bracelets be your guide. These beautiful charm bracelets can bring a mom to tears ( of joy). The wonderful things about these bracelets is you buy the base bracelet or bangle and then you purchase different charms and in this makes it more personalized is because you find charms that would mean the most to your mom . Her hobbies and her interests.

Bracelets start as low as $40 and goes up depending on the metal and what makes Pandora even better, you can buy a charm for holiday, birthday or the day I love Just because.

If your mom is a bit different and doesn't like what is considered the norm, may I suggest hitting up Uncommon Goods. This site has so many different and eclectic products that I do not doubt not finding something amazing for that mom that's off the beaten path.

I do hope all of you find something amazing for the woman who gave you life.

Be gorgeous. Be Wonderful. Be You.
