Top 13 Products Of 2013

I know I said I’d do a top products of the year but I saw this random tag on Instagram about picking your “top 13 of 2013” and thought I’d make it something I can do at the end of each year. You’ll probably recognize these from past favorites and it was really hard to narrow it down but I was able to make it happen people! So lets start shall we? 1. Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders – These have to be the coolest powders ever created and perhaps my favorite out of my stash. I own Dim light and…

Makeup For The Nails

Makeup for the nails, say what?! Believe that this treatment is the no nail polish polished look. I’ve only tried this for about 5 days and I’m so happy I had to report! So for the ladies who might not have a whole manicure regimen but want your nails to look presentable or even for the gals who want a 5 minute manicure I strongly suggest you try this out! The shade is a neutral milky pink with no shimmer what so ever. In addition to making the nails look healthy it’s also a treatment, just wait it gets better!…

Happy New Year 2014

As I’m sitting at my makeup area I can’t help but think how far I’ve come this year with blogging, working, and my family. I am extremely grateful for all your comments and the fact that you take time out of your busy lives to come and check out LWSS daily is mind-boggling to me! To the point where I even get emails telling me how I inspire you and motivate you all is the most satisfying reward I can take from all of this. I’ve had really big PR company’s reach out to me and while there is controversy…

La Mer The Powder in 03 …

This is the mother of all loose powders, I mean you can’t get any better than this! This is a setting powder so if you’re looking for something full coverage this isn’t going to provide that for you. It contains 0.88oz of product which should last a lifetime (dramatization but you get the point right?). The packaging is big and bulky but so chic. It’s a nice frosted jar with a secure lid. Inside you have a puff included which feels like a bunny’s tail! The powder itself is so finely milled unlike anything I’ve ever used before. I prefer…

New Ink . . .

So tattoos are a really big part of my life and some people can’t quite grasp as to why I would want to mark up my body. Well it’s my journey, my life and my story to tell. I’ve enjoyed art since I can remember, I’ve also been drawing since I was a little girl. Tattoos to me are a form of expression that I carry with me at all times and they genuinely make me happy every time I look at them. I currently have six and it’s just a start, I’m not saying I will cover my body…
