For the Love of a Palette: Sephora

I saw this palette about a few weeks ago in Sephora. I played with it a bit in the store but I decided to leave it. Well, I went back yesterday and found myself eyeing it again. The thing that got me was the glittery shimmer madness!! I'm more of a matte/slight sheen type of person. However, if I am going out at night I like to have something on my eyes with a lot of shimmer or even glitter for that matter. The lighting at night captures my eye makeup and stuns everyone around me! LOL

Anyway, I played with it again for about ten minutes and came to the conclusion that it was something I wanted to invest in. I don't know if you guys have the original NAKED palette by Urban Decay, but I loved it when it first came out. I originally went into Sephora yesterday to purchase the 2nd edition of the NAKED palette but was less than thrilled by the color choices. For $20 less I got this palette and I can honestly say I am happy with it. It retails for $30 at your local Sephora and there are two editions to choose from.

Look forward to tutorials from this soon!

Kisses,

Where Have I Been!!!?

There comes a time in every woman's life when she must be real with herself and others around her. I am at that point in my life and you are the people around me. And the real is.....I've been neglecting you dear blog. How could I? Where have I been? What could have been so important that I stepped away for dare I say it? A YEAR!!!!

There's no excuse for this. I love you guys. And no matter how long I'm gone, you always have my back and you always let me know you miss me. I miss you guys too!!!! I don't even know how I've been able to survive without involving myself in what I love the most. Hair and makeup are more to me than a hobby. They're a way of life. The two combined have changed my career path, my motivation, and my enthusiasm towards others around me.

I want to make sure that I always take advantage of the platform that God has blessed me with. It may not be MILLIONS like those I admire on YouTube and other blogs. But nevertheless, you matter to me, each of you individually. So here goes....a fresh start...a new beginning.
