My Facial Routine (Updated)


Hey y'all. Today ill be showing you guys my facial routine and do a mini review on each item. Hope you like!!

YouTube Video

Morning/night routine:

Step 1. Cleanser
I use neutrogena ultra gentle daily cleanser. This is the point to use a cleanser to clean out pores and to make a clear pallet for make up or sunscreen.

Step 2. Spot treatment or toner
I use clean and clear advantage spot treatment. You will want to put this on any area where you have acne problems. This will get into your pores and clean them out.

Step 3. Moisturizer
I use neutrogena oil free SPF 15 lotion. This is geared toward acne prone skin. This is also the time to use sunscreen.

See easy as 1,2,3.


Spa day routine:

Morning: Coconut oil mixed with baking soda

This makes a great cleanser and gentle exfoliator.

Night:
Clean and clear advantage 3-in-1 exfoliating cleaner. This will deeply cleans and exfoliate the skin like crazy!

Viggle Review

Hey y'all. So if you haven't noticed, I'm doing a review on viggle. If you aren't familiar with viggle it is an apple app. And to get to the point it pays you to watch live tv.

If you're interested just keep on reading.

This is what the app looks like after you have logged in.


When you're watching tv you press the big purple button in the middle with a v on it and heres what comes on it.




So it's telling you what it's doing. It's listening to your tv. They have a little device that checks what words they are saying and who is saying it and knows what show you are watching. It's pretty cool.

I've never had a problem with it. It's pretty amazing. And tv providers will pay to have their show have questions as you watch it so every question you get right you get like 10 points or so.

Over all it's a great app and works well. I highly suggest it.


LOVE Y'ALL

Homemade Nail Polish

Hey guys! Sooooo if you have a Pinterest you've probably had this moment. "OMG THAT IS SOOO COOL!!!" And for me today was that day.
So today I was on Pinterest on the DIY and crafts section. And I was just scrolling been there seen that. Then BAM I saw these eye shadows and blushes and bronzers being turned into nail polish. And I was amazed I have never thought of that!! And then I found out how to and you will too.

Step 1. Get your favorite color and find a similar color in eye shadow or blush. And find your favorite top/base coat nail polish.
Step 2. Mash up your eye shadow and make sure it's finely sliced.
Step 3. Funnel the eye shadow and shake it up.
That's it!! Easy as 1,2,3.
Here's what I came up with:

So I find that it's easiest to use a spoon and knife to chop it up, and then scoop it onto a spoon. And from there poor it into the clear nail polish.
Overall this is a easy and simple way to spice up your nail colors and personalize it. You could always put it in a small bowl and make a really small batch. There are tons of ways to personalize this. You could even add little sequences.
In conclusion this project is simple and is very easy to personalize. It's a great way to save money if you have leftover eye shadow. Or when the time comes and you have a special event but not the right nail color. This would be something simple project.
Remember if to do this project send me a pic and follow me!!

Coconut Oil

As very few of you know coconut oil is the most miraculous product out there. You just need to know where to buy it, how to use it, and extend the life of it. Today I'll be showing you'll step by step how to do this.

To make coconut cream you just have to whip it with products to extend the shelf life of it Like grapeseed oil and vitamin e oil. You whip it for 5-7 min on high. And that's it.
Lets get started!!

Did you know that pregnant woman rubs this on their belly to prevent stretch marks. Other woman use this for make up remover. And this will break down all your water proof make up. Water proof mascara, eye liner, and eye shadow. And if it gets into your eyes it won't hurt! And if you do, do this your eyelashes will grow strong and long!

A little tip Is if you want a luxurious body scrub. All you have to do is take 2/3 tablespoons of coconut oil and the same+1 more table spoon of baking soda. All you have to do now is while your in the shower you rub all over your body where you wish to exfoliate. This will start to rub away your skin leaving it smooth and moisturized.

Another tip is to eat 1 spoonful eat day. This will start to clean your body of lots of icky stuff like a virus, fat, and sugar that has been in your body that you can't burn from exercising. If you do this you may notice that you go to the bathroom more often. This means your body is getting cleaned. This is truly a miracle product.

Benefits of Coconut Oil


People always ask me why do you love coconut oil so much. And there is no better way to answer that but this. Here are 5 out of many benefits did coconut oil.
Have you ever realized that anti-aging creams may work, but they are really expensive. I bet you have. lI want to prevent wrinkles and when I'm older. I'll use this trick to get rid of them. My trick is Coconut Oil. Coconut oil is high in cologne. That is what uses lose over time. And that is what causes aging to occur. Coconut oil is a solid at room temperature, but once it reaches over 75 degrees it melts. So your body heat melts it. Not only is it great to take internally. But externally you can just rub on to prevent and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. (Miracle product!!)
This is an amazing oil and WILL NOT CLOG PORES!! This oil keeps your skin hydrated and soft.
Did you know that pregnant woman rubs this on their belly to prevent stretch marks. Other woman use this for make up remover. And this will break down all your water proof make up. Water proof mascara, eye liner, and eye shadow. And if it gets into your eyes it won't hurt! And if you do, do this your eyelashes will grow strong and long!
A little tip is, if you want a luxurious body scrub. All you have to do is take 2-3 tablespoons of coconut oil and the same +one more table spoon of baking soda. All you have to do now is, while you're in the shower you rub all over your body where you wish to exfoliate. This will start to rub away your dead skin leaving it smooth and moisturized.
