I have several makeup companies that constantly show up on my Facebook page. One I wanted to try because they touted that they could match your skin tone. No. One. Can. Match. My. Skin. Tone. Rarely. Rarely. Mary Kay is too orange. Pur is too yellow, except for their powder–that one matches perfectly. Arbonne wasContinue reading “Crazy Leg Style: Facebook Makeup Offers”

Courage to Have Peace
I’m amazed at the difference between two different cities in two different states, 1500 miles from each other. In one city it’s fearful to go out at night. In the other city, we were out and stopped to get gas at night, and I didn’t even think about until I got back in the car.Continue reading “Courage to Have Peace”
Trends for Summer 2025
Oh. My. Goodness. When will the fashion designers wake up to real fashion, real clothes? “The” must haves for the Summer are a little ridiculous. So, when it comes to this Summer, wear what makes you comfortable! If you like the trends, go for it. If you don’t like the trends…you do NOT ‘have’ toContinue reading “Trends for Summer 2025”
Media Does Make a Difference in One’s Life
I cringe when I can barely make out some of the words of songs blaring from an adjacent car, or in a trendy store, or on a television show, or anywhere else one would hear music. Music has changed. The days of the crooner with the beautiful love songs have diminished, there are still aContinue reading “Media Does Make a Difference in One’s Life”
Are All Powder Foundations the Same?
I’ve used PUR Minerals for several years. I was a make up artist for them and fell in love with the products, especially the 4 in 1 Foundation. It’s magic. It’s reasonably priced and there’s no need to make the extra purchase of concealer. PUR did go up on the price, and I thought, “hmmm,Continue reading “Are All Powder Foundations the Same?”
Courage to Be Consistent
When raising children the ‘experts’ say constantly, “Be consistent”. Once you have a rule, abide by that rule. Problems occur when one day it’s this rule, the next day that rule is changed, and the next day the rule is diffferent yet again. This is something many struggle with while trying to raise children. But,Continue reading “Courage to Be Consistent”
Shein, Walmart, Macy’s, Designer, What’s the Better Deal!
My daughter introduced me to Shein. It is a clothing company based in China, and the clothes are inexpensive, very inexpensive. As far as quality, it is hit or miss. I have a denim vest and a denim jacket that both are well designed and constructed. I have a turtleneck that is medium quality; andContinue reading “Shein, Walmart, Macy’s, Designer, What’s the Better Deal!”
Courage to Know Religion
I read a post on Facebook today that made me sad. The question had to do with religion in one’s life and 99% of the comments were negative and how horrible religion is, how it controls your life, how it is made by man, how it is not needed, and the comments went on andContinue reading “Courage to Know Religion”
Yummy Body Butter
Oh my goodness! My friend, Dwight Constable, makeup artist extraordinaire, called me a while ago and said, “I’m starting my own skin care line!” Hmmm, makeup artist starts his own skin care line, shouldn’t that be he started a makeup line? Well, to put it in Constable’s own words, “The first step to good makeupContinue reading “Yummy Body Butter”
