Quick Tip: Dry Mascara?!


Hi friends!
Did you know that you should be replacing your mascara at maximum every 3 months?! It should be sooner if you come down with an eye infection like pink eye or something.

However, isn't it frustrating when you get a new mascara and it starts drying up within a month?! Major bummer!



Well I learned a nifty trick!

Just add 4-5 drops of contact solution, saline water, or eye drops to your mascara tube, replace the wand and close, and then shake. You can do this as many times as you need to up to the three month mark when you should be tossing that bad boy away!

Enjoy :)

Quick Tip: Lemons & Limes!

Hey there!

So I saw something on Dr. Oz that sparked my interest. There was a lady featured in the audience that said her mother never, ever, ever used deodorant and instead would use lemon under her pits. I did a bit more research and found that apparently it's quite popular.

If you have a sweating issue, foul underarm odor, or dark armpits, then take a lemon or lime, cut it in half, and rub it under the area after showering. The acid in the lemon/lime will react with your own body's chemistry and 'train' your body to not release the chemicals that cause odor. The acid also will lighten your armpits. I also use lemon juice to lighten acne spots, and other areas like elbows or knees! You want to make sure the area is is dry before you put on clothing because the acid can stain your clothing. Feel free to save the wedges in a cylinder and re-use as long as it doesn't dry out. When you first start using it, you want to do it daily but after a few weeks you can go to using the lemon/lime a few times a week and be odor free!

Good luck!

Product Rave: Stretch Genie (As Seen on TV)

Spray and Two Stretchers

I saw a commercial for this product and was instantly hooked! Every woman has a pair of heels in their closet that are fabulous but fit a tad bit snug, whether it's in the toe box or heel bed.  For quality shoes, I like to do the ICE method I wrote about in THIS post but for my cheaper shoes, the ice method doesn't seem to work well. 

I was quite skeptical because everyone knows that most As Seen on TV products never work the way they are advertised. Welp..this stuff works!! You spray it on the tight areas, place your foot in the shoe, and walk around until it isn't tight anymore. You can repeat, if needed. You can also spray the formula and use the included stretchers overnight for really stubborn areas but I did not need it!

Hands down, this stuff is pretty cool. The formula breaks down the shoe fibers to allow for the stretching. A simple method that works wonders. You can find it at your local Walmart, Walgreens, or CVS for $9.99.  Everyone should have this in their closet!






Stretch Genie saved these babies!
