Bronzers: Inexpensive Version of Benefit's Hoola? YEP!

I love bronzers.

They can help sculpt cheekbones where there are none, thin out a nose, slenderize a face, lift a jawline, add oomph to your shoulders or décolletage, or simply add sunny color to perk up your bland complexion.

 

Let me admit here that I'm not a fan of shimmery bronzers. I do have one by Victoria's Secret, but I rarely use it. It looks goofy on me, in my opinion. Perhaps dusted on my body for a special occasion; but on my face, it looks like I'm a teenage, oily, disco queen. Not good.

IMO, shimmery ones are not good for sculpting work, anyhow. They should be used to achieve sun-kissed coloring.

So, we need MATTE bronzers, ladies.

Waterproof Eyeliner Fail (no water required)

I like waterproof eyeliners best.

Why? Because, typically, those are the only ones that even stand a chance at staying put on my lid, much less my waterline (the inner rim of your eye).

I won't even waste my time with non-waterproof versions.

 

 Well, I got a waterproof eyeliner in my

Glossybox not too long ago, so I excitedly tried it out.

Pretty Awesome Low Carb Wrap and Crackers: Lavash Bread

I've been eating low carb since April of 2010.

That's 3 YEARS.

Most likely, I'll be eating this way for the rest of my life. 

What I do to make it all work for me, is to find amazing recipes, amazing new foods, and constant support from my friends(you know who you are, ladies!), and even from the online community. I also really like a FREE app, MyFitnessPal, that helps me keep track of things like carb counts, exercise quotas, etc.

I want to introduce you to a little gem I found recently:

Joseph's Flax, Oat Bran & Whole Wheat Lavash Bread.

HAIR: Summery Beach Waves? Alterna Bamboo Boho Waves Review

In a recent beauty box subscription I received

a deluxe sized sample of

Alterna's Bamboo

Boho Waves spray

 

I was excited to try it out. I've never used a "Beach Waves" hair styling product before, except for a homemade recipe I found online, which didn't really work for me.
