Eye make-up: Pinterest idea

It's unrealistic to get your make-up to look as perfect as the photo's on Pinterest. Most of that is done by professionals or with more time than I am willing to spend on my own face. I still like to put on make-up and look nice. I like to experiment with colors and see what I can pull off! I have a few ideas posted on my make-up board, and this is the latest one that I tried.

Mine doesn't look quite as awesome, partly because I am way white and I don't like eyeliner all that much. But overall I was pleased with the result! I liked the color combination and thought it did well with the look I was going for. A sort of mystical-cool, not-that-into-you type of look! :)

Pinterest Hair

So the point of Pinterest is to pin an idea and then go back to it later, right? I must admit that I am a pin-aholic and am guilty of the whole "well, when I have time" or "when I have money" or "when I am married" excuses. I have decided to change this. Goal: Fulfill a pin every week! This week I did one of the pins on my hair board. Here is the pin!

It claims to be easy (like everything else on Pinterest), so I tried it. I rolled my hair using paper towels and then I diffused it using the lowest setting. I didn't do my whole head because I have naturally curly hair and the underneath always ringlets. Basically all this did for me was make the top part curl tighter.

I did like how it looked, but I probably won't do it again cause the result wasn't worth the work. It would probably be worth it if  you had straight or wavy hair. Curly hair can be so unpredictable. One day it will look awesome and when you try to do it again, it just won't work. Life can be hard. 

Well, until next pin...

Insane Fitness!!!

My sister Steph and I are doing Insanity to get thin and fit! We are in the third week and it's still killing me. I enjoy it though because I feel great and I love myself more. I still get sore, but it's a good soreness. It means hard work, endurance, and attractiveness. :) My favorite workouts so far are the abs and pure cardio. I always feel so fit after those two workouts! I've done Insanity before. I lost 15 lbs last time and that's my goal this time.

The hardest part for me when trying to lose weight is the dieting not exercising. I just love food too much! We are trying this new diet tip that is suppose to help burn fat quicker and easier. Before lunch and dinner we drink 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in water with just a dollop of raw honey. Steph's in-laws tried it and got good results. Hopefully it will work because this stuff is pretty nasty. People keep telling me I will get use to it. I hope so! What we do for health and beauty!!!

I'll keep you posted. Maybe I'll be brave enough to post some before and after photos...probably not! :)

Christmas Nails!!! And More...

On the 11th day of Christmas...HAPPY BIRTHDAY JONAS!!!

On the 8th day of Christmas I got my nails done! Thanks to my friend Marie! She always does my nails fun and cute!

On the 9th I went on a date and had sushi for the 1st time and it was way yummy! I am now a big fan of sushi. Next, sushi in Japan!!!!

On the 10th day was my families tribute puppet show! For 30 years my extended family on my Dad's side did Christmas puppet shows. 2010 was the last year. This year my cousin Jenny put a little show together that allowed whoever to do whatever song they wanted. At the end all the cousins that were at the show went up and did the last song. I went up and did it! It was fun and a good way to remember all the fun we had as cousins.
