TOO FACED LOVES SEPHORA PALETTE

TOO FACED <3 SEPHORA

New at Sephora the Too Faced palette "celebrating 15 years of beauty together"  with Sephora



The shades have a bit of fallout but other than that the color are very pigmented.  This is a pretty warm toned palette.  It included two of Too Faced's popular bronzers (one matte, one shimmer) and a blush.

This would make a great travel palette.  The case is metal and just about everything you need to do most of your face is included.  So you wont have to bring a ton of individual makeup pieces.  The blush brush is soft and i think very usable.

This little kit also includes a great set of instruction cards to follow.  It's especially useful if you are new to eye shadows and not sure how to use certain colors. 

This palette retails for 52- US dollars and is exclusive to Sephora.

GAINING WEIGHT

Here's my story.,,

I'm gaining weight!!! Rapidly 

I know it pretty common to gain weight when u start a program. They usually say it's 
muscle growth. Muscle weighs more than fat.  Which means on the scale you may see an 

increase but you will notice a decrease in size. So essentially muscle weighs more but 

it takes up less space.  

I dont bother to weigh myself because i am not concerned with scale

numbers.  I focus on inches and how my clothes fit. 

So my dilemma is THEY DONT!!! THEY DONT FIT!!!

MY REGIMEN 

I'm currently doing 3 beachbody programs.   I'm doing a Les Mills Pump and

Insanity hybrid.  
2x a week with Les Mill Pump I work my muscles with a bar.  3x a week I work on 

cardio with Insanity. 

on Saturdays I am slowly training myself to run properly and on Sunday I rest. 

Unless I skipped a workout during the weekday then I make it up on Sunday. 

MY EATING 

I have smaller meals 4-5x a day and I aim to drink 1/2 a gallon of water per day. Except on 

weekends when I'm home I'm not as disciplined. I treat myself once a week because if i dont 

im afraid i will binge on sweets and all sorts of yummy things.  I also just

started taking 2 chew vitamins a day. 

Sounds ideal right? Sounds like im doing everything right!  

So what's the problem??? 

Why am I gaining weight??

It could be a hundred different things from medical to something as simple and 

water retention... I don't know   

 

So why the hell am i sharing this? Why am I sharing my failure story for everyone to read. 

When it's frustrating and embarrassing! 

I go on facebook and post all kinds of things to inspire 

folks to get up and make changes. Making recommendations on workout programs etc etc 

How can I be an example when I myself am struggling? 

Well here's the deal... im human and i am sharing because I AM NOT ALONE.

I KNOW someone out there will read this and will relate. 

And the difference is although i may be feeling discouraged and tired and

i just dont wanna bother anymore  

I WONT GIVE UP... I WONT GIVE IN... 

AND NEITHER WILL YOU!!!!

At this stage of the game when you feel you are doing everything right and you are 

NOT seeing results (and if you're like me and you're actually gaining) this is

the point where you wanna give up... f*&% it whats the point!?! right?

The point is I made the decision to be healthier.  I may not be where i want to be

but i AM stronger.  I AM able to do the tough insanity workouts more effectively. I can 

do that extra pushup i couldn't do before. Those are great accomplishments.

DONT GIVE UP,  I WONT.

I promise to make an update on how things work out,  what changes i make to see better results.

Maybe it'll benefit you as well.  Wish me luck

Coach Legacy Leather Basket Clutch

SUMMER EVERYDAY CLUTCH

Generally I gravitate towards smaller bags during the summer time... Its just too hot to shlep around a big heavy bag.  Dont you agree?

This is the Coach's Legacy leather basket clutch in the color cognac.  

I love this clutch its functional, roomy, and can easily be paired with any outfit. 

The cognac color is a fantastic neutral and the bag is structured but the leather is nice and soft.

everything that fits into the clutch

LUSH COSMETICS COCO LOTION

DISCONTINUED

Summer is quickly approaching here in NYC,  so it was time for me to pick up my absolute favorite body lotion.  

I love to use Lush Cosmetic's Coco Lotion for the summer!  

On those warm muggy days when more of your skin is exposed you want your skin to look healthy and moisturized not feel heavy and sticky.  Coco lotion has a very light feel/consistency and is also fragrance free, which is great because it wont clash with any perfumes you might wear. 

Whenever you are by a Lush why not just go right in, ask for a sample and see for yourself :D

HOURGLASS FEMME VELVET LIPSTICK IN GRACE

 

ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

I HAVE FINALLY FOUND MY PERFECT NUDE LIPSTICK! 

Yes I have found it after only going through 10 other kagillion nude lipsticks, i have found my GO TO NUDE.

This is the Hourglass Femme Rouge velvet cream lipstick in the color GRACE. I am medium skin tone (for reference i am Mac's NC 30) with yellow undertones and this peachy beige complements my tones beautifully.  Its very creamy and glides nicely on the lips.

There is however  a downfall ... the product slightly settles  into my bottom lip's fine lines.

It  Retails for 30 US dollars at sephora.  Yes its PRICEY but well worth the price.  Its a refillable lipstick.  Once you are done, you can buy refill for 24 US dollars.
