CYBER MONDAY is here! Who's shopping where?

Hi ya Gorgeous,
It is Cyber Monday and if you don't what that is, it's time you learn. Way back in the day where most homes had dial up internet but business had cable internet, meaning, faster internet, people would go to work on Monday and do a lot of Christmas shopping.

Now, no one has dial up and almost everyone has a high speed connection, with some of you lucky folks having the google fiber.

So today is usually a day for deep discounts when shopping online.  Unless you are Walmart who rolled out their Cyber Monday sales and deals on Black Friday.

I adopted the REI mantra of "get outside" on Thanksgiving. We had a beach picnic turkey frying extravaganza and it was delish.
But I digress.

Back to Cyber Monday - be sure you look and find this set from Premium Blend by Munsingwear. It's the most classic scent and new old school guys can wear this with confidence and when you give it to them ladies, it will instill confidence.

This set is everything a man needs to fill his dopp kit to go to the gym or on the road or just have on hand at home.

This kit is available at Macy's or the Original Blend website! Get it before it's gone! Just $70 for everything!

• Original Penguin's new fragrance ORIGINAL BLEND is a refreshing clean marine scent immersed in a striking crafty bottle design of substantial stature and striking color.Evoking a sense of style and temptation ORIGINAL BLEND opens with a burst of Italian bergamot kaffir lime and crisp apple.
• The scent infuses into a blend of crushed lavender shaved nutmeg and brushed suede and is then finely wrapped with a dry down of sandalwood musk and warm amber.
• This fresh aquatic fougere is the perfect blend of heritage wit and masculinity certain to stimulate the senses and stop by-passers in their tracks.

Laura Mercier Smooth Finish Foundation Powder 05: awesome Fall foundation

Happy Monday Beautiful!
Today is Columbus Day and my son has it off from school. Hence, that is why we are in Carlsbad for  Legoland  Mania!

I brought my sample of Laura Mercier Smooth Finish Foundation Powder in 05. 

Prom scents to try: Pink Friday by Nicki Minaj hair mist

Hello Gorgeous! Prom is here in Arizona and possibly your town too! A great way to create a memory is to use scent to build the layers of triggers to that memory. I encourage you as you are getting ready for prom that you pick a signature scent.

 
The scent is an intoxicating floral - musky one as it mixes playful fruity notes, pink flower petals, creamy vanilla, musk and woods. It opens with juicy notes of star fruit, Italian mandarin, and a blackberry and raspberry hybrid called boysenberry. Lotus and starry jasmine petals are in the heart, while the base consists of caramelized pear, vanilla, musk and woody notes.

I like the jasmine and caramel scents that I smell in the dry down. If you like a fruity floral this Nicki Minaj scent just may be a good fit for your prom!

This particular product is a hair mist to refresh your scent. It's available at Macy's and online for $22.

Hello Gorgeous!

Back to school starts tomorrow in Arizona! Already and so soon!

So hit the back to school sales at Macy's, Kohl's or J.C. Penney's and get a fun, flirty

Butterfly shirt by B.Wear.

I've got mine layered over a teal tank top to coordinate with my teal eyeshadow by AVON.

You can layer the B.Wear Butterfly shirt over any kind of tank to make it casual for school or fancy

for going out to dinner or social events. Remember to log onto the store websites to check for sales and coupons!


Now for the 'Back to School' makeup! Most likely you are going to apply early in the morning for a long and busy day at school. Try AVON Extra Lasting foundation to make it the full 8 hours in class and then touch up with powder as needed for after school functions.

I"m also wearing the AVON Extra Lasting eyeshadow in Teal-this can be applied as an eyeliner or as an all over eyeshadow color.

I've got the Extra Lasting on in lipstick X50 which is a light shimmery beige-it looks sort of like someting Jennifer Lopez would wear? I topped the lipstick off with the Extra Lasting lipgloss in Rose. These few things in a locker or backpack can keep your beauty fresh and let you focus on your school work and not on your makeup!

Enjoy this short tutorial video that demonstrates how I used the products.

p.s. To get the AVON products visit www.avon.com There you can shop off the website or put in your zip code to find a local AVON lady near you. Or, BEST yet-why don't you sign up to sell AVON and build a wee business alongside your school work? Work smart not hard ladies!
