Can't believe it!

I seriously can't believe it has been soo long since my last post.

I have since then been promoted to Supervisor of my department and busier than ever.

With both my boys in school, home work, cooking dinner, and everything that comes with having a family.

I just, literally, uploaded the blogspot app so I should be posting more. I feel like everyone is one Instagram, but I still love to write. I honestly feel awkward as I haven't done this in a good while.

I have also lost my motivation. Going into this new year I was just like "eh"! I miss my old self. I don't know what it is. I honestly don't know. 

But I am determined to be the old me. The old me who loves getting all glammed up and doing FOTD's and everything.

I seriously need to get back into my get pretty mojo. Lol

Well, let's take this day by day and see where it goes.

Missed you all 😊

eBay SixPlus Makeup Brushes

Hello babes ^_^

This is what I got the other day in the mail. Well, not really, they needed my signature and so had to go to the post office to pick up. 

Let me first say that this post will be more of a 1st impression post. When I picked it up it came wrapped in that thin, dark grey ugly bag, double wrapped or should I say really well wrapped in bubble wrap. I love the box it comes in as it has a magnetic closure, so you can store your brushes in it. 

Once I removed all the bubble wrap and plastic brushes usually come in, I realized that they are really soft. I will definitely do a review on them as I already don't like one of the brushes. 

The reason I opted to buy these instead of Sigma's Face & Perfection Set is, HELLO, because of the price!!! These are I'm gonna say less than half the price from Sigma. Yes, you get for what you pay for, but I can honestly say (for now at least) that I don't regret buying them. 

Well, this is it for now. Stay tuned for the review ^_^

Vitamins with Biotin

Hello My Loves ^_^

I just wanted to show you all the vitamins I'm taking to help my hair grow faster and  my nails grow stronger. They are Nature's Bounty Hair, Skin and Nails 5000 mcg of Biotin. They do not have a pleasant taste and the biotin does tend to break me out if I take the amount they recommend you to take. It states "For adults, take three (3) caplets daily, preferably with meals. 

I personally take 2 at the same time at night on Tuesdays, Thursdays & Saturdays. This way I don't break out. They are pretty big and sometimes depending I will have a hard time swallowing but overall I love these vitamins. I have seen that my hair has grown faster and my nails are growing faster AND stronger, along with my Hoof Hands Hard as Hoof nail strengthening cream & Nail Magic Nail Hardener. 

Mine is huge compared to other reviews, but that is only because I bought mines in Sam's Club for I think about $15-20. I forgot sorry. 

So if your looking for vitamins give these a try. They are pretty much the same as regular vitamins, just that these contain a higher dosage of Biotin. 

So I hope you give them a try and let me know what you think about them.

eBay makeup brushes

This is only like 1/3 of what I have bought from eBay. I will be doing a video later. But for now my 1st impression. 

To tell you the truth I was very and I mean VERY skeptical about the pink brushes. I've bought brushes before from  eBay and they were just really, really horrible.  They were really bad. They scratched and shed like crazy. A complete waste of my money. 

But the pink ones are actually soft. Not as soft as my Sigma Mrs. Bunny collection or as soft as the other ones pictured above. They are soft enough to where I like them and can actually use with out them feeling horrible on my  skin. 

Now the other one with the wood handles are just incredibly soft. Where from 1-10 where 10 is the softest comparable to my Sigma Mrs. Bunny they are definitely a 8-9. Just about there.

And also just so you know the handles on these are on the short side.  

So if your interested in trying them out yourselves here are the links:
