Black History Tea!

Recently I attended a black history tea party! It was my first time going to one, we played games, sang songs, shopped, socialized, ate good food and of course drank tea! I was among black women young and old, we all came together to enjoy each others company, but also to celebrate our history. I will be going again next year!

Marley Twist!

I had to do them again! I haven't had my Marley twist since June of last year, it was time!! I used 6 packs of hair to get them nice and thick. Two of my packs were actually color. I'm not sure how long I'll be keeping them in, but they are defiantly coming in handy as my protective style and i can do so much with them! It feels nice to give my hair a break and still keep it in a natural style choice.

Thrift finds!

I found a couple of nice things at the thrift store. Thrift finds always make me excited because usually there's nothing else out here like it, so I been doing it since I was in my pre teens I'm 21 now! You never know what you'll find at a local thrift store or yard sale down the street thats the real beauty in it! I would have to say jewelry is my favorite part of thrifting process. I fall in love with modern vintage pieces the most, things with unique shapes, colors and patterns always catch my eye. Here's what I snagged up for only 8.00 : )

Don't really care for the shoulder pads so I'll be taking those out.
The Polkadot earrings are actually clipons! I'll wear those too.

Lipstick!

I'm starting to really go crazy for some lipstick! I can have on some simple, plain makeup and just add a lipstick and instantly add some pizazz to my face! Right now I've been finding the cheapest lipsticks that works well with my skin tone, that's fine with me!

Tacos!

I made tacos for my moms daycare kids for their lunch.... well I prepared it and they used their little hands and put their own toppings on. They love to feel as if they've made their own meals!

Face Exfoliation

I usually do a lemon, and honey mix to apply to my face to add extra moisture and to minimize dark spots that I may have. This time I decided to add in some sugar to make it more of a face scrub. I also applied it to my lips. I defiantly liked how the sugar made my face feel and after about 5 mins. I rinsed everything off. I want to do better with incorporating this exfoliate in, seeing as I only do it 3 days out of the whole month.

What you need:
  • Honey
  • 1 Lemon
  • Sugar
  • Cotton balls
  • Knife
  • Little container
