Up the Amp LOTD

This is a LOTD I did last week, this is the first time that I've worn a full face of makeup in a month...I've been either to tired or haven't had enough time. The look is nothing special, I just used a few Makeup Forever shadows that I rarely used and I used the new Glorify highlighting powder from Mac, it gives a beautiful highlight and a bronze glow to the skin. I also used my recently hauled Up the Amp lipstick. 






The Glorify highlighting powder is so pretty!

Thanks, Miss Dre!

I haven't found 1 person that doesn't love Up the Amp, it's a cult fave.

Your face is glowing! I would love if you can post more about the highlighting product you're using. It's noticeable yet natural. Love the lips, too!!!

Thank you!

I have yet to try any of Revlon's lipsticks...I hear they're pretty good.

I want to ask you about your left eye, my right has that same issue where it won't open properly. I consulted with a PS (plastic surgeon) and it's a combination of muscle and fat that needs to be removed. It's a 10min surgical procedue and i'm thinking of having it done in combination with having my hooded lids fixed, whats your thoughts?

Hey, Lily

Usually when I take pics, I partially close my eyes because the flash is so bright...that's why it looks like it does, the camera always seems to capture it with one eye slightly closed, my eyes are fine though :-)

I try to take pics with my eyes open but I always come out looking like I saw a ghost, lol.

Well-Being: A Better Night's Sleep

  Hello, Dolls A good night's sleep is something I've been chasing after for years. Like many people, my nights can be chaotic. Not to mention, I've been suffering with insomnia for years, yes years.     It takes me a while to unwind and fall asleep, and when I finally do, I wake up several times throughout the night. I’ve taken several sleep aids and remedies through the years. I've tried teas, linen sleep sprays, over the counter and prescription aids, and almost every lavender night time product out there. Some were helpful at first, but after a while, I think my body got immune to it. So, I was very curious when Highline Wellness gifted me a bottle of their CBD Night gummies. I was skeptical at first, but they’re really working for me.  The melatonin helps you to fall asleep, and CBD helps you to stay asleep. I’m able to fall asleep faster, and stay asleep longer. An added benefit is I don’t wake up the next morning experiencing grogginess like I’ve felt with ot...

How I Refurbished my Louis Vuitton Speedy...

I bought an authentic preloved Louis Vuitton Damier Speedy bag a few months back. While I was so excited to finally get the bag and wear it, I realized (at that time of buying and when I received it) that the bag had some wear on it that could use some fixing up. After searching online, I found a blogger,  Lollipuff , who posted an article on how to refurbish LV bags. Based on the recommendations in the post, I used the following products: Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, Blue Magic Metal Polish cream (tube) and Cadillac Boot and Shine leather conditioner. I also used laundry detergent and baby wipes. All of the products used can be used on any bag to spruce it up. Read on for the deets, to see how you can spruce up your handbag! Before At first glance, the bag had some sheen on the exterior. Most of the brass fixtures had green tarnishing (which happens with aging of brass). The leather handles were dull. The bag had lost some of its shape. The inside was the kicker! The red in...
