Hot Bathing Suits

Whoo Hoo, it's getting closer to summer! Well not for the next several months but still. I can't wait to get into swimming pools and beaches. I found some really hot and smexy bathing suits on AMICLUBWEAR.com


I've ordered shoes and clothes from there before. Their prices are pretty reasonable and when they've got clearances going on, I take a steal on that. I was browsing on their site and these caught my eyes. Ugh, just need to lose some fats before it's time be half naked ;P


Winter needs to hurry by cause this gal is sure ready!































My baby D-va

So my Boston Terrier pup has gotten soo big now! It's been over 2 months since we've gotten her. When I first took her to the vet at 6 weeks she was only 1 lb 12 oz. Such a tiny little thing then. But now I took her back for her 2nd shots; she is almost 12 weeks, and she now weighs 6 lb 9 oz!


This little kiddo has been growing! She eats alot and poops alot too lol. She has a mind of her own. It's her way or no way. Luckily we didn't have a hard time potty training her. On her second day with us, whenever we put her down on the training pads, she would do her thing. She learned to do it herself from then on.


She loves shoes, socks, pants, shirts, anything she can put her teeth on. She sleeps with her teddy bear now that she outgrew her little horsey. She drags her teddy with her at night and she sometimes kicks out her teddy from her bed lol!!


I love and spoil her like a child b/c she acts like one. D-va has over 5 different blankies that she cuddles in. She keeps us entertained and she is superb at being a trouble maker!











Here she slept with her back paws up against the back of out futon beside her daddy.



She was smaller than her horsey so I had to upgrade her to Teddy :D




lol, I woke up and this was the position they both were in.











Do yall have any pets too?

Mac Pro LongWear SPF10 Foundation and Hard Candy Glamoflauge Concealor review








I just went and bought the Mac Pro Longwear Spf 10 Foundation in NC 30 yesterday. I've been having an extremely hard time trying to find a good foundation that fit my skintone. It's either too dark, too light, or too pink and orangey. I've tried mixing foundations yet I have too much yellow undertone in me that it never matches my neck.


I've used the Mac Studio Fix Fluid Foundation in NC 30 before. It was just too heavy and cakey on my face afterwards and alot of people say the same thing. My skin is horrible, I am acne prone with extremely oily skin. I've had acne since 5th grade and it just continued to stay with me. I hate it!! I've tried literally everything that is affordable out there. Now Im Sticking to Clinique skin care line and its working pretty good on me.


So far it's still too early to tell about the foundation but I'm loving it already!


Pros:
It's feels very lightweight on my face
Looks natural and flawless
Sheer-Med coverage buildable to Full coverage also
Controls my oil buildup (didn't have to touch up or use oil blotting sheets all day)
Transfer resistant (I wore my shades and foundation on my nose didn't smear or fade)
Up to 15 hrs wear (I've had it on for over 10 hrs and still looks fresh )
Spf 10
Comes with pump




Cons:
Price is 29.50 US after tax it as around 31.00 US
Had to mix a little bit of a lighter foundation so it wasn't too orangey


All in all, I'm probably going to stick with this from now on. I was pretty surprised that literally after working and coming home to look in the mirror, my face wasn't shiny with oil. I love that! And that its transfer resistant! I usually leave foundation marks on anyone that gives me hugs, or just on my collared shirt/jacket. I really would recommend this!
























Moving on to concealors!

The only bad thing about my face is that I have horrible blemishes all over my cheeks, t-zone area, and chin. I have to have full coverage concealor and foundation in order to conceal these awful blemishes.




I've used Mac's studio fix and studio sculpt concealors. Those are some pretty heavy duty concealors that actually worked at covering my blemishes. I just hated paying so much for the concealor. I go thru it like crazy since I have to cover my whole entire cheeks with it.
Now I've found an alternative concealor that is priced at such an amazing price.

Hard Candie's Glamoflauge Concealor in Medum has been my life savior!




Pros:
Heavy duty coverage
Liquid formula (doesn't feel as heavy as concealors in pots)
Covers tattoos
Price range is from 6-7 dollars US
Tube contains .71 oz (almost 1 0z!)
Comes with concealor pencil ( you can use as highlighter for bow of lip and under brows)
Up to several months of uses ( i use it just about everyday)





Cons:
Gets oily after couple hours (need to touch up with powder)
Has only 3 shades ( light, medium, tan)
Limited stock at Wal-Mart

All in all, this is a must have. It works for undereye circles, blemishes, tattoos just about anything you need to cover up. The price is soo cheap, compared to all the other higher brands out there. This would be comparable to Kat Von D's Tattoo Concealor.



I'm wearing both products in this picture and in everyday routines now.





Hope this was informational! Check it out and have a great day!

New Hair-do

Hi folks!

Im back...Been too lazy to post anything new and it's hard to post anything without a cam. All these pics are from my crappy phone.

Anywhoo, I've been so unhappy with my hair color. I can't seem to get it to be the right color nor tone. Plus my roots grow back so ridiculously fast that I can't keep up with it. But thank goodness I'm finally happy with the results.

My hair is soo dead, fried, damaged to the extreme, and broken off...but I just can't stop. And what hairdresser doesn't have damaged hair lol. We do sooo much stuff to it that even products can barely help tame it down.

I did sneak in a pic of my FOTD. I was heading to work so I snapped a quick one. I've been into neutrals lately. Its easier to blend and it doesn't take as long in the morning when I'm in a rush...and I'm usually in a rush lol.

Have a great one!
