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!

Battle of the BB Creams!

Hello everyone! Now as you all can tell, I love the Battle of the series. The reason why is because I can review a bunch of products for you all in one blog post. Since it is summer and not many of you want to wear a ton of make up, I thought I would tell you my favorite BB creams. I also want to let you know that there might not be many blog posts in the month of July. The reason is because I am in college at the moment and I am super busy. I will try to put up as many as I can but I just want to let you all know! :) I hoped you all had a wonderful June! What is a BB cream?    Now BB stands for blemish balm. A BB cream is supposed to have a moisturizer, primer, concealer, skin treatment and foundation all in one. BB creams have been all the rage for a while now but not many people talk about them anymore.   NOW LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE! Round 1: This is the  L'oreal Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream . This BB cream was one of the first BB creams that ...

Must Have Nail Polish for Spring!

Hi everyone! I hope you all are doing well. Now that I have started talking about spring, I am so ready for it!  My last post  was about my favorite spring trends for 2014 and today I want to talk about nail polish! I love nail polish. It makes me so happy when I am writing notes and all of a sudden I look down and see my nails painted in a pretty color. It brightens my day! It's all about the small things in life. Essie's Play Date This color just screams spring to me. This is one of my all time favorite nail polishes and every time spring and summer comes around, this is the first nail polish I put on.  You're Such a Budapest This color is gorgeous. I do not personally own this color....yet! I will be getting it this spring because this is like a lavender/periwinkle purple. This color is a perfect color to transition color from winter to spring. Essie's Sand Tropez  This is another color that I don't own.....but I will. I honestly think ...

First Impression: Sephora Favorites Meet Your Match!

Hello everyone! I am super excited to be doing my first first impression blog post! Yay! Now I got this a while ago but I have not really touched it or played around with it. A first impression is basically my opinion on these products and how I think of them the first time I swatch them, use them , stuff like that. Now this is a value set from Sephora and it is the  Sephora Favorites Meet Your Match .  Now this was pretty popular among some YouTubers a while back and I really liked the products and wanted to try them and it was only $25 for 6 sample size products. Which I thought was a pretty good deal.  Packaging:  I love the packaging. I thought it stands out because of the bright colors and the interesting print on the cardboard. I also love the concept of matching you lip gloss to your nail polish. I thought it was a really fun idea for summer.  Match 1: This is the first lip product that I want to tell you all about an...
