Bye Bye Stretch Marks!



Hi everyone!
I am sorry I have not posted a blog post in a couple of days! I was not feeling well but I am back and ready to blog again!

Now this blog post is a little personal but I feel like almost everyone suffers with it.....and it's stretch marks! Stretch marks are when light or dark lines appear on your stomach or thighs when you have gained weight or  when the elasticity in your skin has stretched.

I used to have stretch marks on the sides of my stomach and it made me very self conscience of my stomach. The reason why I got stretch marks was because I had gained a lot of weight in a short amount of time. But with these two products the stretch marks are almost gone!

Now I will tell you my secret tip to lightening your stretch marks and soon they will be gone!
The first product to use is the Cocoa Butter Formula with Vitamin E Cream Unisex by Palmer's. I have used this for years before I started to get stretch marks. This is a very thick cream that rejuvenates your skin and after you put it on and leave it there for a couple of hours, your skin looks amazing! Now this cream is targeted for people who have stretch marks or dry skin because cocoa is actually really good for lightening up stretch marks. If you do not like the smell of cocoa, the scent of cocoa is there but it is not overpowering.

The next product is Coconut Oil! This product is amazing. I get my coconut oil at Trader Joe's but you can get coconut oil anywhere. Now I just recently started using this and mixing it with the Cocoa Butter and both of them together=perfection. Coconut Oil not only helps the stretch marks but mixing the two products together makes your skin glow. So if you want a J-Lo glow....put the Palmer's Cocoa Butter first then the Coconut Oil. The problem is people who do not like the smell of coconut....do not get this. This smells like coconut and the smell is pretty strong.

Now I recommend putting these products on before you go to sleep to let the products sink into your skin. Doing this "routine" when you have a pamper day.....is the best! The reason why is because you have your mask on, you are all covered in cream that smells nice and you are painting your nails. It is very relaxing.

I hope you all enjoy this blog posts! Tell me any other tips you want me to talk about! I hope you all have a wonderful day/night!
Carpe Diem

Beauty and Random Favorites for 2014!

Happy 2015 Everyone! I hope that the start of 2015 is going well for you all. I am super excited to be sharing my top 2014 products with you. At the end of the blog post, I will be sharing some random favorites as well. I hope you all enjoy! Face: I have two favorite foundations for 2014. The first one is a high end foundation and it is the  Tarte Amazonian Clay 12- Hour Full Coverage Foundation . I have the shade Medium-Tan Honey. This is my special occasion foundation. Since it is pretty expensive ( $38) I do not want to use it every day. My favorite part of this foundation is how much it looks like skin on your face but it looks like a more flawless version of my skin. But I personally do not like the cake face look and I like the more natural look and this foundation gives it to me. The second foundation is from the drugstore and it is the  Loreal True Match Super-Blendable Make up . I am in the shade W3. I heard about this foundation all over YouTube but ...

Tips for Prom Dress Shopping

Hey Everyone! Now prom is around the corner....okay three months away! Some of you have found your dress, Congrats! I found my dress today. And some of you have an idea but have not found the right dress. Others have no idea what they are looking for. So today I decided to give you a few tips on how to shop for the perfect dress! Tip 1: Get prom magazines. Prom magazines are designed to help girls find the style they want or give them an idea on what the different dress companies are selling. I bought the Seventeen magazine one and it helped me so much because it gave me locations for different prom places in my state and showed me a bunch of different types of styles of dresses. Tip 2: Make a list of warehouses, shops, boutiques you want to go to. I made an entire list of all the places in my state and wrote down the address, the number and the hours. It made everything so much more organized. It will be less stressful on you and who ever you are going with. Tip 3: Have a whol...
