Hard Candy Party Pop palette: perfect for the last minute stocking stuffer Christmas gift

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Woot! Final week countdown to Christmas and Hanukkah! Are you ready? Do you need just one more gift for someone? Specifically a beauty lover in your life or a new beauty user?

If yes, check out this video review and demonstration of the holiday palette Party Pop from Hard Candy - exclusively at Walmart!  It's just $4.88 and stocking stuffer ready!

It's tin can be reused, the mascara gives a nice fullness and the pencil is a bit firm for my tastes though I also normally only use a shadow and wet brush to make my eyeliner.  All the products used in the video are listed below it.  Enjoy!

Holiday hairstyle with Salon Grafix High Beams Intense

Hi ya Gorgeous,
The countdown to Christmas is on! Do you have any more holiday parties to go to? Are you doing a big NYE look for an event this year?

Weirdsville. My son and I always travel for a New Year's Eve adventure and not this year. Nada. I don't even know how that happened!

I digress.


For you and your upcoming soirees - consider picking up a couple of cans of Salon Grafix High Beams Intense color sprays for your hair. It also comes in sparkly glitter for those of you who want to have some extra shine at the party.

These are super affordable and easy to use. Simply shake and spray.  One thing to note though, on my dark hair it does not show very bright. The blue, I wish it was a bright streak like the photo on the can, alas it is not.

The copper color makes a really pretty highlight - so if you are doing rolls, curls or fancy braids, put a streak of copper in it then coordinate your manicure or lipstick with the copper tone. Chez elegant!

Let me know if you have fancy party plans!

Word of Encouragement for your Monday

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Happy Monday to you!
The week has taken an interesting turn. My family is now en route to Mission Viejo to help another family member during a time of health challenge. So it's time to look again and adapt perspective to what God is doing.

The plan is to get there and assess the situation, and then, make a second plan for how to honor the virtual hot chocolate party and Christmas tree photo contest!

Now, enjoy this short video with a word of encouragement for you!


More from the road and sunny Southern California!

Jesus the Christ is the only one who could SAVE anyone from having to pay the punishment(s) for their own sins. Thus, as he has said: "I AM the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father [GOD], but by me." (John 14:6). "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5). "Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." (Acts 4:10-12). 
Special thank you and shout out to the One Christian Ministry for the list!

A very Merry Christmas eve to you and your family

Hello Gorgeous,
My family is in the middle of celebrating Hanukkah and Christmas.

Cheers to your family enjoying a celebration too.

Matthew 1:18-25

¹⁸This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. ¹⁹Because Joseph her husband was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.

²⁰But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. ²¹She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.”

²²All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: ²³”The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”-- which means, “God with us.”

²⁴When Joseph awoke, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. ²⁵But he had no union with her until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.

Duri Polish: Sheer Bluff & Grey Area for Grievous manicure

Hello Gorgeous!
It's almost Christmas and my family is so excited and celebrating a bit each day! Part of the celebration is letting my son pick a show to watch while we wrap Christmas gifts for our friends and family.

Honestly I was expecting him to choose from the Christmas movies that I had laid out for him to choose from. Nope. He went straight for his Star Wars Clone Wars collection and it was all Grievous and Palpatine from there on out.

So here is my Duri polish inspired Grievous manicure!

Hello Gorgeous!
Happy Hanukkah and Merry Christmas eve that is...

I have been testing and sampling the Kumani anti-aging shea butter 3 part skin system and love the thick, richness of the face was with micro exfoliating beads!
The toner is a soft, infused water that removes any traces of makeup and the creme is a perfect compliment to soothe dry winter skin!

The shea butter is harvested in West Africa and is only processed through fair trade practices.

Just think, while you are helping your skin, you are also helping the women of Africa sustain their families and communities.
It's pretty much a win win situation all around!

Why? Because it comes with a gift-a goodie-an extra something in it!

If you watch reality tv and Mtv to be specific then you know the name JWoww for Jennifer Farley of the Jersey Shore fame.

She has a new holiday gift set in her scent available at Kmarts and online or amazon.com.

It's a fresh, fruity, floral-pear based scent that dries to a light powdery scent. Now-to make it last you can layer on a hydrating shimmer body lotion too!
I think this is a great gift or stocking stuffer for the young adult-the young lady who likes current pop culture and trends!
