Shellac Gotcha

Shellac's Gotcha is from the new Spring collection. This pink is perfect for Summer, fingers and toes! the formula is a little thin, so you definitely have to apply two coats, and could even get away with three! This color is so fun I'm considering shellac'n my toes with it too! What do you gals think?

QTOD- Ballerina Buns

So many mornings I'm rushing out of the house with crazy hair, either it was my off washing day or I didnt have a chance to straighten it, my quick tip today is throw it up in a ballerina bun. They are so in right now, and look adorable yet sophisticated...trust me I've been told! If they are a little spikey that's OK too!

My Nails!

I was doing boxing drills this weekend and ripped 2 nails, 3 total over the weekend. Needless to say it'll probably be a week or so before I post any Shellac updates. I've got a new color that is perfect for Summer that I'm dying to try...Guess it'll have to wait...till then...keep checking back!
Have a blessed day :)

QTOD- Burn more calories

I'm not a night gym going type of person, I'd rather get up, get in and get out. The plus side to working out in the morning is that you burn more calories, your stomach is empty so you can benefit more by doing this. Try it for a week, I'm sure you will see a difference in how much energy you have through out the day :)

Shellac Negligee

My post from yesterday got deleted some how, troubles with the website I guess...sigh...But anyways...this color is a mostly clear with a transluscent purple tint to it. The formula goes on smooth, and the finish is super shiny! Love this look.

QTOD- Workout/ Cleaning

As a busy mom and wife, I know that unless I wake up between 4 30 and 5 to work out, it'll never happen.
Here's a quick tip on how to get a mini workout in while cleaning. Throw some heels on and Vacuum! What a great workout for your calves and butt! Have a great weekend!

QTOD- "Fat Days"

I know we've all had them...however the trick to not feeling so sloppy on these days is to wear something belted! Your waist still makes it's presence, you look totally put together and you arent tempted to overeat at your meals :)

QTOD- Small Snacks

I'm a snacker, I always have been. But since I sit alot at work, I made a decision to only munch on healthy things, like bananas, oranges or apples, but recently I was introduced to one of my favorite snacks in a more delicious way...Cocoa Roast Almonds, in Dark Chocolate Flavor. Whats so amazing about these little nuts is that they are good for you and taste good too! They are available in 100 Calorie Packs so you know when to stop, otherwise I would just keep eating them and eating them...I found these at Walmart, one box of seven packets was around $2.50.

Shellac Cream Puff

I've never had white nails before, but I thought, Hey there's a first time for everything right?! So here you have Shellac in Cream Puff. I feel it's really trendy not sure if I will keep it on for the full 2 weeks I'm sure it'll hang on for, buttttt the application was really smooth, and I think this look is really sharp, what do you think?

QTOD- Exfoliating

If you're like me and get really dry skin through the Winter and into the Spring, the most helpful "skin saving" routine is to exfoliate twice a week. You would not believe what a difference twice a week makes. My favorite exfoliater is MAC's Volcanic Ash Exfoliater (limited edition), but I also like Origins Never A Dull Moment, retails for $24.00 at dept stores and online (http://www.origins.com/). Your skin has never had it so good!! Try this and let me know how it works out for you in the next couple weeks. :)

Shellac Cocoa- 10 Day update

No chips, just growth!!! How amazing is that!? Yesterday I changed the gargbage, did 3 loads of laundry, loaded and unloaded the dishwasher twice, and they still look awesome!

QTOD- OJ & Vitamins

For those of us who catch a cold every time the wind blows, there are a few things we can do to help prevent such an annoying event from occuring. Drink lots of juice w/ lot's of vitamin C!!!! My favorite mixable drink is Emergen-C in Tangerine. It gives your immune system the little boost it needs to keep you feeling healthy when you start to feel under the weather. You can purchase it at your local grocery store, usually runs about $14.00 a box.
