Zenni Optical! Affordable and Stylish Glasses

Zenni Optical! Zenni Optical! Check out www.ZenniOptical.com. This site is amazing. You will find hundreds of styles of glasses and all for a great price. When I say great price, I am talking about $15 for a complete pair of glasses! That is crazy. I love everything about this site except that shipping takes about 2 weeks..but hey, patience is a virtue. Check out my review for more on this great company and get your next pair from www.ZenniOptical.com.


Outre Half Wig Shakra Review

Oh Shakra! We are learning to love each other. Shakra is a great unit for the "everyday" activities, in my opinion. Shakra is a half wig so you will need to leave some of your own hair out to make this unit look realistic. The length is great for easy wear and styling. I mentioned in my review below, that Shakra put me in mommy mode...but I think if you take the time to style this unit it can fit for many occasions.

Freetress Half Wig Monaco Girl- Review

I purchased the Freetress Half wig called Monaco Girl awhile ago but wasn't too into her. After digging her out of my wig box to do a review, I do think I will give Monaco Girl a second chance. I actually really like this wig. I love the style. the curls are beautiful and the hair is light and bouncy. I just simply picked the wrong color as I explain in my video review:

 

Here are a few specifics on Monaco Girl:

-Synthetic
-Long length, mid back
-lots of shedding
-tangles easily
-can be worn as a ponytail
-very affordable

Freetress Equal Lace Front Wig Mariah: Review

I recently posted a review on my YouTube channel of one of my all time favorite lace front wigs...Mariah by Freetress!! This wig is excellent for all occasions and one that I have bought again and again. You can find this wig on pretty much every hair site that sells synthetic wigs. I purchased this unit from Ebonyline.com for just over $40. I give Mariah two thumbs up! Below are a few specifics:

Synthetic
Layered
Medium length- bra strap
Does shed after about 2 weeks of wear
Does begin to tangle in the nape after about 2 weeks of wear
Heat resistant
Fabulous!

O.P.I. I'm in Love!!

Check out this latest color I just bought from the O.P.I. line. It is called Swimsuit...Nailed It!

*Please excuse my cuticles lol

I love love love O.P.I. nail polish. You can find this brand running around $10 a pop depending on where you shop. Honestly it is worth it to me! This polish glides on so smooth and even! It is nearly impossible to mess up. Their colors are always so rich and vibrant too. What I really love about this polish is how long the polish stays nice and neat on my nails. It usually takes a good week before I see my first chip. Most nail polishes are chipping after the 2nd day. I have to admit I am pretty rough on my nails. 

So anyways, for those who love O.P.I. like I do or want to try it out..go to your nearest ULTA store. They have a sale where you can buy two for only $12 (selected colors only). That is a great deal considering what they normally go for. They don't have the polish online (strange) but they have stacks in the stores. Hopefully you have an Ulta near you!

Did you know??...

I don't know about you, but there are certain days when I just feel absolutely beautiful. I mean I think on most days I am fairly pleased with my appearance but then there are those days when EVERYTHING is on point! Do you have those days? I am talking about my skin just has this glow..to the point where I don't even feel makeup is necessary. My lips are plump and juicy. My hair is full of luster and my eyes are sparkling. I hope everyone feels this way about themselves at some point. Some might say it is a state of mind. Hey maybe I did just wake up in a super confident mood on those days. Then there are other people who say it is actually our hormones that are making these wonderful little changes in our skin and hair.

Who knew?? Try tracking it! On those days when it is just all pulling together so nicely...mark in our your calendar and see if there is a pattern. I am going to try it out.  And guess what? Today is one of those days!! :)
