Daily Gratitude

Green tea..as always. I'm happy i have matcha at home..i haven't bought a green tea frappe/latte for a week

blank canvases..at first i was sad that my ispy bag and elf compacts were so white and bland..then i painted and scribbled on them, respectively. I feel like blank surfaces are begging to be colored

Cream cleansers and scrubs that don't dry out my skin

Dry shampoo sent by ipsy

The fact that i get so much from Walmart when i spend so little. I picked up a new towel and sheet set along with a seventeen magazine purely for ideas and nostalgic purposes

I also got a Revlon nearly naked foundation. I was watching some of Nicole Guerriero's videos and she recommended Revlon's color stay24hr whipped foundation and Loreal's true match. I live for Loreal's true match but i thought I'd give Revlon a try as well. I couldn't find the whipped foundation in my color so i got a liquid foundation

Great snack ideas in seventeen. I'm itching to try the cucumber treats

my safety

Elf primer..i feel bad about adding one more layer to my face..sunscreen, moisturizer, jojoba oil and foundation...now primer..but thankfully it's lightweight. i also life how it feels on my face

doing things my own way (not comparing myself to others
) and trusting my path

Start Inspiring Yourself With Positive Thoughts

Virgo Jul 31 2013
Fear can spur you forward. It can cause you to go out and achieve, and to protect yourself from life's difficulties. But joy and anticipation and optimism can do the same things, Virgo. So why would you choose worry when you can choose to be inspired by happy, hopeful emotions instead?  You have been giving into a fear that you won't get something you want or achieve something that is expected of you. It is as if you are your own enemy rather than your own ally. Start inspiring yourself with positive thoughts, and you will be unbeatable.

Libra Jul 31 2013
You may feel as though you are stuck in a certain situation. And because you think you are stuck, you have made yourself rather comfortable in a place you don't really want to be. That seems silly when presented that way, doesn't it, Libra? Because, as you know, you are only stuck if you allow yourself to be stuck. In your more optimistic moments you can probably recognize that there must be a way out. Whether this is a bad romance, an unfulfilling job, or anything else that is critical to your life, there is no sense wasting your time in a place you don't really like. Pull yourself up and get going toward something better.

Aquarius Jul 31 2013
You could be making a commitment or an obligation far more complicated than it has to be. That could be because you are feeling resentful about it. You may be sorry you got involved. Or you may be sorry that you allowed a certain person to push you into it. You may even be angry with yourself for not being stronger and resisting the pressure. But it really isn't all that difficult a problem. If you really want to be free of it, then free yourself. You know how, Aquarius.

Hard Being the It Girl Trio

I was testing out the colors from this 2013 wnw trio and it dawned on me that i have other blues (and purples) that i haven't worn...including blues from my urban decay palettes.

I really need to stop buying eyeshadows...especially colors (since i wear mostly neutrals..at work)

Day 11: Earthy Nostalgia

I was going through my makeup and saw my comfort zone palette, swatched a few shadows and fell in love again.

I added a fresh perspective with elf's mineral shimmer shadow in "earthy" and used the purple color icon liner to complement the green shade

In the comfort zone palette i used the first 2 left shadows

Daily Gratitude

Seeing the bright side

Mocha and caramel coffee

Vitamin enriched sparkling water

Oreos and snickers

Planning

Frequent travel..well the ability to get away

Mango and kiwi for breaky, as well as frozen fruits for snacks....frozen grapes have to be the best snack

Being with my cousin for a spontaneous act/ decision...on my part

Lush sandstone soap...love this. I have to think about my experience with lush products so i know exactly what I'm going in there for. I feel like my experimental days are coming to an end. I've explored a lot (and wasted a lot of money...well it wasn't really wasted) figuring what i like and what works for me...and it's been fun. I always tell myself i can make whatever products i need...but not in NY. the next time I'm in an island i need to take full advantage of the resources

Going with my natural rhythm

Small Delights

Lip care and glosses

Green teas, fruits, veggies and coconut water

Jewels-lots of unique rings and my feathered bracelet

Candy

Ways to organize my life
