MY TAKE ON Beauty Money Wasters

Hi Everyone! Long time no Blog! Sorry my life has been on TURBO speed and i haven't  had made time to blog :(. I have been tweeting though so connect with me on twitter for the LATEST AND GREATEST!

I ran across this great discussion on Beauty Money wasters and I could not agree more.

Here are some things I never buy:

• Shaving creams
• Eye creams
• Cuticle oil ( a nail tech told me to use Vaseline)
• Salon shampoos (unless i get them at a SUPER discount through my salon friends.
• Leave in conditioners (K-Pak) is the only one I splurged on and I remember i got that for $11.. But to be honest.. i robably would do it again. Aussies $# one works the same if not better..
• High end nail polishes. ( Do not pay more than $7 for nail polish) I'll rather pay to get my nails done..and i usually buy them with a promotion or discount at ULTA ( buy 2 get free topcoat.. etc.)
• Foundation ( i only use concealer on those special spots otherwise i go with a fresh face unless it's a wedding or Special occasion- Unless you have TERRIBLE skin ( you probably shouldn't use foundation all the time if you have acne prone skin anyway.

ENJOY! THE SHORT VIDEO IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY!

THE Summer Beauty Cravebox

My last Post was a complete debbie downer :(

So here are some Pictures from my Cravebox till i get my fabulous video loaded :)

Please let me know if you have any questions regarding the products i have received.

Speaking of pictures... my picture quality should be upgrading soon!! on a recessionista budget of course.

Actually in my latest video i mention how i am working all the time.

I am always on the go but i am also in GRAD school right now. Grad school is more than half my paycheck so i'll be a recessionista for quite a while.

Meanwhile. i hope you liked my cravebox and consider getting yourself one as well!

I found this cravebox well worth every penny.

The razor, soap , and protein bar were all things i would have purchased on a weekly basis which would have cost me more than $11- The brands are high quality and the scrub and eye treatment are the best gifts i have received in a while.

I dare you all to check it out if you have a spare $11. You can choose which box you are interested and they will randomly choose the winners- till they have more openings for their monthly subscriptions

Feel free to comment or message me!

25 ways to wear a scarf! the fall POST

October is gone and daylights savings time has occurred- i'm not sure about you guys but it has not helped me wake up earlier or arrive earlier to work or the gym- in fact i wake up so early that i go back to sleep and end up being late to everything! But back to the real deal. It's COLD. But i live in Texas so cardigans and jackets are the number one essentials for me... except they are soo routine and boring i need something to spice up my outifts

This is when i turn to scarfs. Lately i ran across Wendy's look book video that shows 25 ways to wear a scarf!

This has recessionista written all over it!

check it out :)
