New Beauty Products for Spring 2012! Part 1

As we all know, as of March 21, it is now Spring! And thank you to the 3 Texas sized tornadoes that hit all of Dallas today to remind us that it IS that time of year. I hope everyone has already done their spring cleaning, shopped for new clothes and enjoyed their spring break to shake off winter. Now the only thing left to do is to shake off is those beauty products that were used in the winter.

Let's start with hair!

Hair care is the funnest thing to play around with because everyone wants something different and everyone lives in different areas. Me, for example, I am Puerto Rican mixed with Black, extra soft, naturally curly hair, long length but I also love to straighten it, I live in Dallas, TX where the weather is bi-polar and you never know what you are going to get. So yea, my hair goes through many problems.

New Product That I am Trying Out:
Mane N' Tail

The true reason I want to try this out is only because I want healthier hair. I am a dancer and a model which means my hair goes through a lot. It is prone to split ends and dry spots, chemicals and all sorts of mess. So I've been hearing for years that Mane N' Tail or any other horse hair care products does wonders for your hair.

Most of the time, where you live determines what problems your hair has.

If you live in: Dry areas

And your hair is: Straight
  • Give your hair a boost by using deep conditioner or leave in conditioner after you shampoo.
  • Before and after styling, use a drop of coconut oil or argon oil to give your hair shine and a healthy look

Or your hair is: Wavy/Curly

  • For those who live in a dry area, its perfectly fine to use gel. Just as long as you mix it in with a little coconut oil too
  • Try not to wash it too much or too often.

Or your hair is: Relaxed

  • Dry areas tend to have very dry winds that can damage your hair, so protect it as much as your can
  • Again, a drop of oil will do wonders

If you live in: Humid and Muggy areas

And your hair is: Straight

  • To prevent the big poof from happening, use a touch of hair spray and you should be fine

Or your hair is: Wavy/Curly

  • When styling your curls, use creme styling products. It holds better and gives your hair a more soft and touchable look. It also prevents poof.

Or your hair is: Relaxed

  • Keep some shine spray nearby. Don't drown your hair with it. But just a drop will do.

Part 2 coming up......

My Last Month of High School! :(

I can't believe that starting Wednesday, it will be my last month of high school. It feels like not too long ago I was in the 4th grade imagining my high school senior year. Now it has finally come to reality. With a few exceptions and changes to that reality lol. I didn't know that I would be going to an arts school, and I definitely never expected to be a high school mom. But all those unexpected things are what makes my life better than expected :) In this final month, there will be so many activities we will be doing so keep checking back later!

Final Trimester! Welcome to the Home Stretch...

I have officially reached the last 3 months of my pregnancy! Yaaaaaay! Baby boy is now the size of an eggplant. I have weighed myself at different places, and i'm actually not sure which one is correct. At the spa, I'm 139....... at my mom's house using her scale, I'm 129..... hopefully I'm 129. Lol. My next doctor's appointment is Tuesday so i'll see how much I REALLY weigh. It scares me because if I really am 139 pounds, that mean's he's going to be huge because I was 139 pounds when I gave birth to Gabby. Speaking of doctor's appointments, I am now going every 2 weeks. Which is good for me because I really have alot of questions now. This pregnancy is so different from my first and I am having so many different symptoms. I am soooo tired of eating. I know that is strange to say coming from a pregnant girl but it's like I'm ALWAYS hungry and I'm ALWAYS  eating. Lol. I'm just really tired of stuffing my face. It doesn't f...

New Season, New Plans.

Okay so this past Easter I had a wake up call. I told myself that this year I'm going full force to pursuing my dreams. Well....If you wanna make God laugh, tell him your plans.  He definitely woke me up and opened my eyes to some things. But the two things he definitely made clear to me were, 1. Seek Him first before you do ANYTHING. Because without God, it will fail. And 2. What he says goes. Do what he says or else. Haha. I don't mean to scare you guys or anything but its the truth. So after a week of thinking and praying and asking him to show me what it is He wants me to do, I've had a change in plans... (Ugh i'd never thought i'd say this, but) I'm going back to school. I'm going for secondary education to become a high school history teacher.  Why high school? I get along with teenagers. (I might do Jr High but more then likely I'm gonna do High School) Why history? I love it and I know alot about it. (I'm not good at math so....yea) Why teach...
