Thanksgiving & Black Friday DEALS + NUME Discount   I hope everyone had an amazing thanksgiving with your families/friends and the people you hold dear. We had an amazing day with family and it was extra celebrating Laylas first Thanksgiving this year. We are so grateful for our growing family, our big extended family, all of our healthy bodies and minds, and the love God has given us for each other and others. Those are the things i've been focused on this year. We are making traditions with our little ones and it warms my heart to think about how excited Cash is about Christmas and the holidays this year. We got to watch my parents light up their Christmas lights last night and all the little cousins were in awe. It was so cute to see their excitement and how they all ran up to touch the lights.  Having children gives the word Joy new meaning, i know kids age you because of worry, and lack of sleep and running around crazily after them....but they at the same time they ...

Big Loose Curls: Nume Curling Wand Deal!    Ladies! I had to jump on here and share the latest Nume wand i have been using the last couple weeks for big loose curls! I ordered the Magic 32mm Nume wand and i have been loving it. Its swivels at the end so you never get tied up in the chord and comes with a glove for heat protection so you wont burn your hand as youre curling your hair.  I love that its healthier for your hair and gives extra shine because its 100% titanium.  GOOD news is Nume is offering ANY WAND for $26 dollars today! I recommend this wand but you can also select a different one that works for your hair length and style. I love bigger curls so i went with the 32mm which is 1 inch thick.  You can check out the photo i snapped quickly last week after styling my hair in 5 minutes only the top layer while i was testing it out.  I am so happy with this selection and excited to share that this $149 wand is only $26 from now until October 25th! So ...

Hi beauties, so many of you have asked about what products i've been using as of late on instagram and via email over the recent months. I havent dont an updated makeup post in a whiiiile so its about time i share some of my new favorites and those items that i've been loving for years and years. I've been a makeup lover since i was able to hold lipstick in my own hands...lets just say i could apply it without a mirror and no smudges at age 4 (says my mama) lol. I'm pretty much wearing makeup in every Christmas family photo that i was allowed to.  Its pretty funny!  i was a girly girl but also a tom boy. With that said, i have tried my fair share of makeup, but im always on the look out for items that you can purchase at the local drug store for reasonable prices, however some items you do have to splurge on if you want the same quality.  So here are my current favorites that i use weekly: Lets start with face... i have used both olay facewash and sensitive lotion for ...
