2011

This is the time of the year everyone wants to make tons of resolutions. That is great! Having ambitions to stop old habits or to start new ones is what life is all about. I just try to make mine realistic.. That way if I don't meet them in the time I wished i had I don't get down on myself. Every woman in this world wants to look good and most resolutions start with wanting to lose those extra pounds. I know with being a busy mom I realistically can't go to the gym everyday ( if at all !! ). So I increase my water intake and do little things like simple stretches and I actually just dance around the house with my babies... It's a double plus!! They laugh and I break a sweat! I also have another idea...
You know how some days you feel like you woke up 10 pounds heavier then the day before? If not, I know I sure do! What I discovered, is if you actually take pictures of yourself for a series of days/ weeks, you actually will SEE that you look beautiful everyday, despite what your mind is telling you! We are Real Women! Unless you were blessed to be naturally thin you know how hard it is sometimes! We don't have a crew of lighting professionals to follow us around along with makeup techs and computer geniuses to enhance or erase our flaws. Wether you are size 0 or a size 22 you should know that you are amazing and beautiful, everyday.
The hardest thing I had to learn was to take the time to make ME feel great. I worried about everyone else and how they felt and even though my life does revolve around my children, if I don't feel like I'm at my best, it will show in my attitude! I am defiantly the woman in the bathroom doing my facial scrubs with organic lemons and sugar at 1:00 a.m. I may be tired, but I will do it! I save money by doing at home remedies because I feel as though I'm saving money which is smart and also, it's good for my budget of family goods. PLUS, it's way more healthy as a cleanser and scrub than all the chemicals in most shelf products.
So, for 2011, TAKE CARE OF YOU!! It will make you look your best and it will make you feel amazing! Do any resolutions that will influence a positive aura... Wether it be working out, shopping for the best deals, creating a new you!
There is only one amazing YOU... Be the the best because you deserve it!

MY QUEST!!

I'm pretty new at this and I really have no idea as to what direction my posts will be going. I plan on inspiring women of all sizes to feel beautiful, help any new mommies out there who feel alone or lost feel loved and get the empowerment you deserve! I will try to give all the make-up tricks I know and what drugstore brands work just as good as the big buck ones! I have hair ideas and simple tips to get the look you really want without paying a pretty penny. I'm not a product pusher, by any means. I want women to feel beautiful. That's my goal!! I feel for women, especially in our economy, wether it's affecting you or not you love to save!! I have so much I want to share with the world!! I'm a former model and cosmetologist. Just because Im not behind the chair or the camera doesn't mean I can't show you the tips and tricks to look and feel amazing!! I traded my full time career for a family and new twins!! So my quest is to help all I can!! ThanksWithLove :)
