iWish

A simple list of things I want before I start doing homework and making next week's lesson plan. Awe the pain. 

Azealia Banks for MAC

This is the first time I will attempt to hurry and buy a limited addition lipstick by MAC. Why? One, because I love MAC lipsticks. Two, because I need this plum. Goes on sale tomorrow (9/5), or tonight I guess. I will definitely be purchasing.






MAC Office Hours Collection

God, I'm already in love. If you know me, you know I love my pink lipsticks and blushes. This is a FALL collection, so I'll be buying a few things.

How cute is this picture below. I mean, that french roll sucks... but a business woman in pink is definitely me. Á la Elle Woods

beauty whisper : noxzema

The Beauty Whisper today is Noxzema. It's how both of us keep our skin flawless. It's no big secret about the brand, being that Noxzema is one of the oldest, if not THE OLDEST, brand of facial cleaning around, founded in 1914. The trick is the process in which we use the brand. Lacey found this technique online a little while back. I started using Noxzema because of it's strong clean feel, and it was cheap. This process took it over the roof.

Firstly, you need the big old school tub of Noxzema. Yes, the big chalky version that you have to dig in.  It comes packed tightly in the jar, so make sure you stir it (using your finger is fine) to make it a smooth product. If you still use the hair crack (perm), it's much like that process without the liquid substance. With a little stir it will go from hard and chalky to soft and smooth almost instantly. It should look something like the picture on the right.

You should then use a coat as you usually would to clean your face, rinse and remove. The big step is applying the next coat and leaving it there to harden. Then go to sleep! That simple.  We found that when leaving the product on over night, it leaves your skin feeling smooth throughout the day and removes any pimples are blemishes you had before applying. 

I would advise you leave a note in your bathroom reminding yourself to rinse your face the next morning! You won't be able to see the product until you rinse, so it doesn't leave any marks, but you don't want to leave your pores blocked all day.

Petite Thoughts: 3 Septembre 2012


"Love like you've never been hurt"...
We hear this all of the time but never take in what it really means. This isn't a quote for someone who's already overcome heartbreak, but an affirming message from those who've overcome to the dwellers. They want you to know that its going to be ok! Life is full of heartbreak, but it's no reason to hide your heart. God gave you that heart and from the moment you were born, it was meant to be beautiful. Don't let someone who doesn't appreciate the beauty of your heart keep you from giving that gift to another.

Remember, the number one function of your heart is to keep you alive... so why not live?
