I got the color that I wanted. I as sure of how to request the color, so I just hoped for the best. Luckily I got the lime green one. YAY!

I think I should have gotten the XL-XXL I wasn't think the medium (XL) is pretty much my waist size and I'm definitely giving it some stretch just get it around my waist. So far I'm happy its not flimsy and its giving me great back support hopefully I can sleep well in it. Goodnight!

Skin Care: Aztec Secrets Indian Healing Clay (Calcium Bentonite Clay)

From dealing with acne to overly oily skin,and extremely clogged pores. I can easily say I've had a lot of  downs when it comes to my skin . Now that I'm older I've decide to focus more on my skin care regiment. I dealt with acne for all of my teen life and it wasn't until I was in my 20's that I could say I semi-acne free. To have a perfectly flawless face I found myself grabbing for any full coverage foundation w/ a heavy concealer to match. I still have a huge love for make up and I find myself purchasing new product on the regular, but in the last year 1/2 I been shying way from Cake face look. Now and day find myself wearing powders and maybe a lipstick or no make up at all. Yes I said it NONE as a matter of fact I can say for the last six months I've haven't worn make up for about 98% of the time. Scary I know, but a natural face make me feel comfortable. I like my skin and I'm happy with going through my day bare faced but I do have little imperfection that I would like to correct just to have that perfect skin finish.

I've never tried any at home face mask so after seeing one of my favorite instabeauties, @blu_scent rave about the healing clay I decide to run out and snag one from my local whole foods.


FAQ:

1.  Prices

 For starters the Aztec Secrets Indian  Healing Clay fairly inexpensive it retails for $7.99 which in my opinion is great because it makes up to 1lb of clay that leads up to 15 facials and you only need a small amount .

2.  how does the Aztec Secrets Indian  Healing Clay work?

using NON-metallic implements mix 1:1 ratio of your clay with AC Vinegar or water. Apply the mixture to skin and let dry. 5-10min for sensitive skin 15-20min for normal . Cleanse with warm water.

My First Experience

For my first go around with the Bentonite clay  I cleansed my face prior to using the mixture. I didn't read any warning in the directions to not do so I did. I used my Black and white lightening soap just to get rid of any excess oily on my face. Mixing the concoction was a challenge for me because the product does insist on you not using any metal implements I choose to use a wooden stick. I'd suggest using a plastic whisk for an easy blend. The product didn't come with any measuring tools so I kind of eyeballed my mixture using water in a color bowl. After getting the consistency that I wanted I applied clay on my face using my hands. I ended up making to much so applied the leftover clay to my chest. I let the product dry for the full 20minutes. While letting the clay set I did notice a tingly sensation on my face (as stated on the product). It was slightly irritating, but it wasn't something I couldn't withstand it as if the product was sucking all the impurities from my pores as it dried. I also notice the am tightening in my skin as the water evaporated. Once the full 20 minutes elapsed I began to wrinkle my face to release the tightness then I washed away the leftover flakes with a warm wash clothes then I proceeded to remove the excess moisture from my face with a dry towel. Although my face was left smooth and soft after using the Bentonite mask it was a lot drier than normal so to rehydrate it I applied a small amount of virgin coconut oil .  As directed I will continue to use my clay once a week as apart of my regimen. I look forward to seeing smooth and supple skin!

November Manicure

Working in a salon can take a huge toll on your hands. You literately spend the day washing and disinfecting everything in between clients that they tend to get extremely dry and cracked from the lack of moisture. Within  the last few months I've invested my money into build myself a nail lacquer collection. I've spent some much of my money on lipsticks that my beauty kit lacks in other items. Now that I have a decent sized polish set I figure what better way to sport all my new babies by getting a fresh mani while also showing some TLC to my dehydrated palms.

I'm pretty decent when it comes to doing a basic manicure.
You push and nip your cuticles
shape your nails
one coat base
two coats polish
one coat top
and blah blah, but nothing is more appealing to than a nice set of long evenly shaped acrylics. I'd wear my natural nailsif they weren't so brittle, but they aren't so I opted for long "Squalmond" shaped nails. I'm not one for elaborate designs and gemstones so trying this shape help my nail understated but chic at the same time!

M.A.C. A Novel Romance

Boy have I been out of the lipstick loop. I haven't purchased any new lipsticks or make up in general since Pure Heroine. To be honest I have really haven't hauled anything since early summer when Playland released I don't know what it is but for some reason I haven't found myself in need of any new products that have come out. That was until I heard about ANR. I've been waiting weeks for the marge collection to drop that I completely skipped over this one I was almost at a loss luckily my mom told me about it so I  was able to get a few things before the online release was completely sold out!

I ended up going to the store release just to see if I would like any of the other shades. I was actually blow away by this collection which is a lot coming from me because I never just like everything in a collection. I only purchase the lipsticks from mac but I contemplated on get the some of the shadows as well! While there I found myself taken by Talk Sexy I don't wear Lip Glasses but I felt the need to grab this one simply because I have so may brass toned reds and mattes that I felt like it would be an asset to my collection. I've already started to pair this gloss with other product and I'm in love with it. I can see myself reaching for Talk Sexy whenever I want to do a little extra with my lips this Fall!


I don't have much to say about Linger Kiss and Hearts Aflame simple because they're Reds. You guys know how I feel about red lipstick. The way I see it you can never have to many and the darker the better! These lipstick are new to my red shades so I snag them they were my favorites in the collection and I got them without having seen them in person. I received them Monday evening and my judgement was right I absolutely love them and it helps that they're mattes.

Overall I'm happy with the collection now and days I see myself buying more essentials product than thing that I just want to try. You'll definitely see me sporting all these products this season !

Irrational Beauté: Day Time Rebel

 I wear shimmer contours, dark lipstick in the summer, and I don't always wear matte shadows in my crease! When it comes to make up I tend to break all the rule in beauty standards. I don't typically plan out my looks so everything is random and spare of the moment. I feel like my creativity comes alive when I don't know what I'm doing and I'm just grabbing at products. I've finally discovered what types and shades of lip colors I'm drawn to. I'm a dark lippy kind of girl it's mid summer and I find myself reaching for deep plum, and wine lip colors instead of  magenta, and hot pinks. My latest lip must have is night moth lip pencil I find myself pairing it with nearly everything . At the moment my favorite combo is night moth pair with rebel.
