Hi ya Gorgeous,
Happy Saturday - so, I could use your help as I am curating some thoughts and experiences for an upcoming blog post about work for women before/during/after the #MeToo movement.
Your answers are anonymous - so please, share your heart. I'm specifically looking for how the movement has affected your work place, work opportunities, and work pay scale after the movement gained traction.
If you could, would you please take a moment and answer these 5 questions - it should take between 3-5 minutes to complete.
Thank you so much! Use this link now to voice your opinion!
Hi ya Gorgeous!
TGIF!
Whoa. Okay. I can explain. No need for excuses. Though here it goes. In the beginning of 2017, I said I would only be posting on Monday due to my busy schedule with my feature film, Jael A Western Tale. I am finished with the script, there are still a few roles to cast and then, the forever list of details that need to be managed and completed to get us to production!
You can learn more about it on it's Facebook page here: http://facebook.com/jaelawesterntale
This week, the focus is on the Influenster Vox Box from Lancome. Oh such sweet goodies!
I received these products for free as a gift to review and give my honest opinion. I can honestly say that I don't really like the liquid form of the foundation but this stick is a dream! It's a semi matte finish and dries down powdery without caking in face creases. Bonus! Then the concealer is thicker than my normal brand but for those who need more coverage, I think you will enjoy the consistency, coverage and wear time! Which is long! I'm amazed by the click highlighter pen which when you click the button on the end it oozes out a bit of rose and gold shimmer liquid which more like a veil wash of color and highlight than an actual highlight powder or cream. I used it all over my face! Finally, the lip gloss is light and can be work alone, over a lipstick or lip liner. It's so versatile and perfect for your spring and summer looks! So like Lancome says, Don't Glow It Alone!
So part of my current over whelm is that while I am watching my feature film slowly ... oh ... so...slowly make it's way to production, I did a documentary in the mean time. It was like taking a job on top of a job!
It's completed and finishing up it's distribution deal now, funny, how it's easier to place a true story versus a fiction one!

I received a sample from them to test and it came at the best time ever! I was en route from one NASCAR race in Las Vegas to another in Phoenix and it went from hot to hotter. This colloidal silver spray with essential oils is amazing! I used it on the surface of some places, in the air in others, on my skin and in my mouth for a freshening up!
It's available on Amazon right now - and if you have kids, pets, relatives, a house, a car, armpits and yuck mouth - you need this! Your spring break will thank you!
Finally, my favorite segment, "What Are You Reading" this week! I'm re-reading the #BeMore book by Sandi Krakowski. I love it's bite sized nuggets of inspiration and wisdom. Get yours on Amazon today! http://amzn.to/2nJjKeh

Hi ya Gorgeous,
I am always on the hunt and look out for those things that will help edify and encourage a woman, no matter her age. I think it's important to keep a positive mental attitude as well as surround yourself with encouraging and upbeat people and reminders!
If we try to make your skin go to rehab, will you say no, no, no? Take this quiz to find out how bad you may have damaged it this summer and how to repair it.
Okay my friends and loved ones, I have been sitting on this product story for awhile because I needed to hear back from a young man who I had lent this product to. See, I rarely, very occasionally get a pimple let alone a full breakout. To that statement I praise God and knock on wood! So, he was shy about doing photos and I can understand that not all are ready to just hang it all out there like myself. So he tested the product and used it for a full two weeks; enough time to let the skin work half way through a 28 day cycle of natural occuring shedding, and guess what? Success! He is experiencing a clearing up of red bumps and whiteheads, along with a smoothing of blackheads along the nose and chin. Phew! I'm so glad of that because it's one thing if I try a product and it doesn't work, but it's another to ask a teenager with a fragile disposition to test something and have his hopes built up and then have the product not deliver on the promise. So amen to that, this line worked for him and perhaps could work for you? It's reasonable at $29 for the 3 products. Below are some testimonies from others about it, and if you want to know more or order, just go to: www.dermera.com ! Enjoy! Tracy After years of using different products, this worked for my problem skin. I would recommend it to anyone who wants clearer skin.
Michelle After dealing with hormone induced acne for 5 months, I found this product. I am so happy I tried it! I've used it for exactly a week now and my blemishes are 90% cleared up! I couldn't be happier! I will continue to use this product.
Leslie Most acne products are extremely drying and leave my skin tight and flaky without even giving good results. This product does an excellent job at calming inflammation, and after only a week of use, I'm noticing that my skin is clearing up.

From subtle to chunky highlights, see how stars like Rihanna work streaks
Highlights are a perfect way to add dimension to your hair, making it appear full and vibrant. When done right, hair looks like it's been kissed by the sun. When done wrong, highlights can give hair a striped, skunk-like look -- not pretty. Check out our fave and least fave celebrity hair highlights, then offer up your opinion: Did they go too far or are their streaks just right?
