I hope you live a life you're proud of and if you ever find that you are not, I hope you have the strength to START OVER.  ~Anonymous~ F or me this year was a glorious one. I started off the year with THREE heart desires I wished to accomplish before the end of this year and by Grace I did hence my 2017 has been nothing short of amazing.

CHRISTMAS GIFT GIVING GUIDE FT CAPE ROBBIN

Image
A CAPE ROBBIN CHRISTMAS I will be the first to admit that, the main justification for Christmas(Jesus Christ) is over looked in this era but rather  the focus is now on parting as well as giving and receiving gifts. Well who despises gifts? Tis the season to give and receive gifts!. This is the time of the year where family, friends and loved ones (Santas) show their  Love  through gift giving and I am super excited for this time of the year as much as every one is. As much as I repudiate the reason behind the Christmas season  I still enjoy every moment of gift sharing, hence this season I decide to gift myself a pair of Cape Robin booties

I believe we all are ready for  the festive season; gift buying, meeting family and friends, feasting and wining,  partying  and basically lets say we are just chilling and casually waiting for the NEW YEAR Aint it? Take a pause and ask yourself where did 2017 go? Time really goes fast when you not paying attention, well as fast as 2017 was I hope we all were able to accomplish most of our goals and resolutions prior to the start of 2017. For me I am very grateful for this year as I was able to accomplish most of my goals and looking forward to a better 2018. Lets be real accomplishing some of our set goals wasn't and won't be easy, but the ups and downs make it even better. Most of the times, I found myself in unproductive moods, and not energetic as much as I would want to but I spaeak to myself and always find my MOJO back! I discovered three tips that helped me in always pivoting my MOJO....

FACIAL SERUM UPDATE

Image
FACIAL SERUM FT. CAUDALIE Like most people, I tend to  have  acne on my face when I'm really stressing and of course when its that time of the month (my ladies can attest to this). Juggling between my new job and life has been quite stressful and hence I have been seeing one or two pimples pop up on my face. Even though I do not suffer from acne mostly, one of the issues that bothers me is the dark spots they leave behind.  Don't we all hate them? These spots were really a bother hence I had to introduce a facial serum in my skin care regimen that do not only fade away the dark spots but also moisturizes my face as well and gives my skin an even tone. I stumbled upon  Caudalie vinoperfect radiance serum   during one of my Sephora trips. After minutes of debating I decided to purchase it and give it a try. As pricey as it is , this $79 jar of magic is really worth it. I use this consistently day and night and I have really seen great improvem...

BACK LIKE I NEVER LEFT                      Hey Guys,  so I am finally back from my looonnnng break! Honestly I just decided to take a break from my blog due to confidential reasons. Mostly about me figuring out my life as well as making sure my goals for 2017 were being fulfilled  as the year comes to an end and amidst other things such as earning my college degree and graduating from my first phase of pharmacy school, getting a new job and many others. Of course it hasn't been a very easy journey but just along the way I decided to share the ups and downs with you and how they mostly affected me in both positive and negative ways! Also I cannot wait to give my cents on fashion and make up with y'all.            Being that I left for a long time, I would like to reintroduce myself to my new subscribers as well as my old friends and loves ...

BALANCING ALL ASPECTS OF LIFE

Image
Issa stressful Life  So I realized, the older you get, the busier and messier life gets and I must admit I'm enjoying these hurdles because they are shaping me into the woman I want to become. Responsibilities upon responsibilities, they never end...ughhh and talk of relationships. With time I realized organization and prioritization was key to maintaining my sanity as well as life. I needed to focus and put my energy into things that will benefit me.  I believe that if something is worth it, you make time for it but I have always struggled with balancing school, work , my relationships with other people, blogging and everything in between. I remember getting to a place where I was ready to burn all the bridges  which I have now overcome, life got so stressful I began questioning the existence of God, that was when I realized things...
