Flowerbomb is my love.

I'm sitting here thinking what fragrance will I be buying my mother for Mother's Day. She runs out quickly because she uses them all up, and all she ever wants as gifts are perfumes! so should I buy her something she is out of or search for something new tomorrow. I already have a good idea of what she likes and what she doesn't, hmmm. In the mean time I'm sharing with all of you my favorite, I go to my happy place when I smell it :-)

 After smelling and trying so many perfumes the last few weeks, Victor & Rolf has made me very happy creating Flowerbomb! 




What's in my makeup bag


This morning I decided to clean my makeup bag and I took everything out to do so. I found a moment to take a snapshot of everything I carry around with me. I've been inspired by a few people to do this post.  Do I use it all throughout the day? No but you never know when you might. I named some, others I didn't on this pic. My brushes are Mac and Sigma if you are curious :-)



I know for sure I may not be touching up throughout the day anymore after purchasing this!!!

A few weeks ago I was given an Sample of this at the Urban Decay counter at Macy's. Urban Decay all nighter setting spray.  3 days ago I bought the full bottle, not cheap $29, but I haven't had to retouch my makeup during the day AND with this heat I spray a little bit more during the day and it gives my makeup up a fresh look again and a nice glow! I will carry the small one with me in my purse and the full size on my makeup counter. It's worth every penny and it sprays so evenly!

Story of my hair...

Going on 30 years with this head of hair, and I'm asking myself, is it time for change or keep it looking the way it is?




 Here are a few photos of my hair in the last 29 years. 



I believe I was less then a year old here, but had super 
dark hair and lots of it I think.

4 years old or so, I always had to have it
combed and didn't like bows or pony tails
either, haha! I always had to go loose with it
from what my parents tell me. 


OMG, so if you guys came from my old blogspot, you might have see this
picture already. The first was from high school, had it super curly, tight like a
perm. Lots of hairspray no color yet. After I graduated my phases began, still curly but 
lots of color. The last photo was me going back in 2004 to black like I had before I messed it up. 

NOW...


I get comments like " your hair is like Kim Kardashian" or "do you have extensions?" I never copied her nor ever have had extensions, all natural! I've had dark hair and started curling it like I do before she even came into the spotlight.
I will admit I love her style and I think its a great compliment because she has beautiful hair!

These are pictures I have taken in the last couple years.

Most Current 2011



I think dark hair is attractive and extotic! To change my hair color will
take alot and a special person to change my mind, but so far nobody. I didn't like it in the past and may never like my hair another color again. Don't think I can ever go short either. I'm happy with what I have. If I can pull off having very black hair, I intend to keep it! Its definitely a feature that attracted my loving boyfriend! ;-)

What I use
Superstar Professional 1" falt iron. Have been using it for 6 years now and no other.


Today
I purchased a curling iron for the first time. I have always used my flat iron to straighten and curl my hair.

Conair tourmaline ceramic curling iron 1 1/4 . I want to try something new with my curls.



Let me know what you think and what has been your favorite hair color or style, and who have you been compared too!
