Casual Hair Style

1 comments
Do You want a Hair style for going out in Jeans and a nice shirt? For Shopping or For going to Church? I tried this one out on day, because I didn't feel like Straightening my hair, so it was all wavy and slightly curled...(my natural) and I just started pinning it up...and got this!
Materials Needed:
~Bobby Pins
~Hairspray
~Straightener (for bangs)
~A Head Band (optional)
Step 1: Take your side pieces and pin them in the back of head.
Step 2. take rest of hair and start pinning it every which way...For this one I pinned upward and let some of the hair be loose.
Step 3. Make sure hair is secure...shake head...
Step.4 Spray w/hairspray
Step5. Straighten Bangs, and add head band.

Face Wash

0 comments
What kind do I use?

That's an interesting question..I've used quite a few...and i've done looking into some of the other ones...

Clean & Clear:

Great Wash...I've used both their regular and their Acne line...Works good for minor acne.

And the great thing is it doesn't cost much!






Acne Free:

Just like Proactive...they say, me personally i've never used proactive. The only complaint about this product was, that I couldn't find replacements to the kits. So I had to stop..But it worked Great (I used the stronger acne formula)




The Wave by: Neutrogena

I've used this one too...It was a nice change to face wash. It kept your hand oils off your face. But in the middle of using it, my face went through another change, and got oilier....so I had to start washing my face 3 times a day, to keep the oil down...Not a good thing to do when you have to buy replacement Pads.





Neutrogena Acne Line:

After the Wave i just switched to their Acne line, w/their gel cleanser...It's cheaper and last longer...Then I use their Acne Moisturize w/ Salicylic Acid (their cleanser has that too) and right now i'm looking for a toner w/ Benzole Peroxide in it...I read that it works best to mix these two b/c they both help different symptoms of Acne.
(Neutrogena came out with a new line called SkinID, but it cost $40 to get your started kit, and it's only online...that's a bummer...but here's the link..At the site, you can do an evaluation, and they will make a kit just for you...if I had the money I would...but I don't so o well...but maybe you can! Check it out!)
A Great thing about Neutrogena is that It has a makeup line as well...so you can get your foundation and things from the same company!

A Great thing about all the Products I listed here(except Acne Free, you'll find at Walgreens) You can Buy them At Walmart!

Please leave a comment with what you use, and how you see it working, to help others find one face wash that will work right for them!

Homemade Lip exfoliater

2 comments

Since it's still winter time, Your lips get chapped easily, and an easy way to get that dead skin off, and make your lips soft again...is to exfoliate! and here's an easy homemade lip exfoliater, you can make it 1 batch at a time or you can make a big batch and save it too!


Ingredients: 1 tsp of Sugar, 1/2 tsp of Olive oil

Mix these 2 ingredients together, then get your toothbrush, and dip it into the mixture, and then rub on your lips...once all the dead skin is off....rinse both your lips and your toothbrush very well.

Then add a moisturizer, and you have soft lips again!

But you don't need any lipstick, because after exfoliating your lips, they get darker, so you have a natural Lip color!

You can do this 1-2 times a week!
