My Acne Miracle Cure!

I am in love with the Elf Zit Zapper!
My advice to any of you who are having problems with acne whether it be minor breakouts to the more major breakouts, would be to try this before going and spending money on anything else.
You can get this at eyeslipsface.com for only $1.00! You get 2 fluid ounces.
I have been using this for about two months now. I have used it on minor acne as well as the more horrible acne that I normally get around my "aunt flow" time each month and on the minor acne if I use it before bed time, by morning it is almost always completely gone!
The more major acne takes longer than that to go away but still only takes about three days before it is almost completely gone and not noticable anymore...how can you go wrong with that!
I have never noticed any drying of my face where I use this product either which is really nice.
It does not have a unpleasant odor, it smells like a very mild form or an astringent.
The only con to this product for me is also a pro for me......the packaging.
I love how it has the roller ball for quick and precise application..you don't need to use cotton balls, or anything like that, just whip the zit zapper out and apply it. However, at the same time that also can cause bacteria buildup on the roller ball....so I just suggest doing what I do and that is getting some of the square alcohol pads *like the doc uses before they give you a shot to clean the area*, you can find them at any drugstores, and I just wipe the roller ball off after each use. It seems to work out great!

New Nails....

I am in the process of once again "trying" to let my real nails grow out. I don't know how long it will last, but thought I would share the design I did on them tonight. I just used a black and hot pink polish and then the nail decals are from the Fingers EDGE Royal Punk Nail Art Collection. I really like them, they are pretty cute and really inexpensive. You can find them at Walmart.

Sigh.....

Ok for those of you who follow my weightloss journey....here is an update for ya...an early update that is....

I have been SUCKING!!!!!!!!!!
All you gals who think you have been horrible on your journeys...well I have been that horrible plus more...
What the hell is wrong with me?
Don't I wanna loose my fat ass?
This is me talking to myself right now ok...
Honestly I dunno...I think it might be because it is getting time for the old ugly aunt to come and visit me (if ya get my drift). All I have been able to do lately is think and think and think about chocolate....I WANT CHOCOLATE!!
Today was horrible....I ate a whole effin pop tart....almost 400 calories!! WTH?!
Then I ate about 4 chocolate chip cookies.....HUH!!!!!!!
I am really gonna have to get back on track tomorrow or I am going to be spending the rest of my life just loosing, gaining, loosing, gaining and loosing the same few pounds over and over again.

POINT OF THIS STORY: Don't be to hard on yourself for those girls who are on their own journeys because none of us are perfect and we never will be. Striving for perfection is the kiss of death. Always remember....tomorrow is a new day! Get back at it....right now...no excuses....dont make me whoop ya ass!

New filming station...

My lighting for my makeup tutorials is horrible when I film at night, I have to use a regular lamp and it casts such a dreadful orangish glow. So, I moved my filming station to another area of my room by a window. I will have to change my filming times to later in the afternoon but it should workout until I can go get the lamp I want at Walmart that is $12.00.



New brush holder....

I had to make a new brush holder, I had accumulated so many, so I used an old flower vase and a 2lb bag of multicolored fish aquarium gravel...served the purpose and looks cute ☺



My tools....

Random Pics...


My computer desktop....even the browswer bars, etc are hot pink and black! So cute ♥

RECIPE: Slowcooker Chicken & Bell Pepper Stew

INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 pounds of boneless skinless chicken breast
2 large green bell peppers
2-3 medium onions
1 1/2 cups of hot water
15 oz can of beans of your choice
14.5 oz can of diced tomatos
1 1/2 teaspoons of cummin
1 1/2 teaspoons of sugar
1 teaspoon of dried oregano, crumbled (optional..I did not use this)
1/2 teaspoons of salt
1/2 teaspoon cummin


DIRECTIONS:

Put chicken in crockpot and cook on low for 3-4 hours...it will NOT be done yet.
Then, in a large bowl chop up the green peppers and onions.
Add the water, beans, tomatos, 1 1/2 teaspoon of cummin and the sugar.
Stir it all together in the bowl.
Take a metal spatcula and kindof give your chicken a quick chop up in the crock pot to where it is all pretty much roughly chopped up.
Then pour the mixture from the bowl over the chicken and mix together well.
Cook on HIGH for 4 hours.
After the time is up, stir in 1/2 teaspoon of cummin and 1/2 teaspoon of salt...mix & serve!


NOTE: Be sure to adjust the recipe accordingly for the amount of people you will be feeding. This recipe probubly feeds about three people.

Kick Ass Nailpolish Combo!

Hey galz...just messing around tonight with some of my nailpolish I came across this color combo and loved it so much I just had to do a blog post about it! I took pictures but my camera is horrible for picking up close up images and fine detail, but you can kindof get the idea of the color.

The two polishes used are the ELF polish in PARTY PURPLE and the Sinful Colors polish in LET ME GO. I am a huge fan of the ELF Party Purple..I think it has to be one of my favorite purples ever. The Sinful Colors polish I was on the fence about. It looks so pretty in the bottle but once you try putting it on your nails it is way to sheer to really get much of an impact with unless you literally probubly put on about six or seven coats of it. However, I do think it looks great OVER other polishes, especially Party Purple! Putting it over Party Purple really makes the greens in the Let Me Go polish pop alot more and of course there is a duo chrome effect to the polish so that paired with the dark purple of the ELF polish creates this really cool chameleon effect that was totally unexpected from me! I am in love with it! If you have these two polishes, I def recommend trying this out and seeing for yourself the awesome color!
