The Braid and Curl is a super easy natural hair style to do and it great for transitioning and fully natural hair.

Natural Hair Styles | Natural Hair Fail turned Wavy Curly Updo!

Natural Weight Loss Challenge! I've lost 13.5 pounds! Whoot-whoot!


Hey guys!

I'm so happy to share that I've lost another 5.5 pounds since my last update!  So far I've lost 13.5 pounds this month. 

I've been eating clean, sticking to my Daniel's Fast and doing a bit of exercise which has made me feel sooo great! 

On Wednesday, I'm going to share some of my meal plans and a couple of other great details about what I'm doing.  Look forward to seeing you then!  In the meantime, please enjoy this video update!


HOW TO DEPOT LIPSTICK INTO COOL LIP PALETTE


Hi guys!  This Make-up Monday I thought I'd show you how I depot my lipstick and house them in a space saving pill cozy!  For this depotting project I'm using a LA Colors Lipstick, an exacto knife, large spoon, napkin and a 7 day pill cozy I got for a $1.00 from the local dollar store. 

This project is cheap, quick, easy and saves lots of space!

After letting your lipstick sit at room temperature for 15 minutes, using a napkin, gently twist and remove the lippie from its container and place it in the center of the large spoon.  If some lipstick is left in the container after depotting, just use your exacto knife to remove the remaining product. 
Use a long stemmed lighter, heat the bottom of the spoon to melt down the lipstick being very careful not to boil it.  Boiling causes the lipstick formulation to change and you don't want that. 
I like to move the flame back and forth to keep the temperature even and to evenly melt my lippie.
Once the lipstick has completely melted, just pour it into one of the compartments of your pill cozy, let it sit for 10 minutes and you're done! 

I hope you enjoyed the video!  See you next time!
