Diet Update, Major rambles

I have been on the diet for 8 days now, I haven't cheated with food but I have cheated with lotion.  I have to put lotion on after my shower.  I held on to my will power last night when my husband sat next to me with his yummy hamburger, onion rings and chocolate chip cookies.  I wanted to attack him and eat all of it but I didn't.  I do not notice a difference in my clothes or body.  I am hoping that I am doing this correctly.  

We have been looking for houses for about two months now.  Haven't found anything, everything is above our price range,  we could go higher but I don't want to worry about being able to afford the house if something was to happen. Today just hasn't been my day at all!  I think I have spent a majority of today crying, I am so stressed out over the house thing.  

I know that isn't about beauty products but it has been hard trying to concentrate on anything else right now.  


I did use my Macadamia Nut Masque yesterday, it smells sooo good.  Didn't really find it to be that great, my hair feels softer with just the oil.  I was really disappointed after hearing such great things about it.  I really do love the shampoo and the healing oil.  


I bought an Airwick candle on Sunday to try out.  Don't waste your money, the smell is really weak.  I burnt it for two days straight, all day and all night.  I bought the cinnamon and apples thinking it would be the strongest scent.  I still prefer the Febreeze candles over that one.  If you want a grocery store candle that is cheap go with the Febreeze candles.  



I want some input on an idea I have,  I have several products that I didn't like and I don't want them to just go to waste so, if you guys  want to do this let me know!! I really want to do a pass along project with everyone, we post all the products that we didn't like to someone else, see if they like the product do a review on it???

Day 2...HCG Diet & other ramblings

I am still on my load days on the diet.  Tomorrow will be my first real day on the diet.  I have been giving my self the injections with zero problem, it has not hurt me.  The only thing that I really do not like about this diet is I can not have anything with oil including make up and lotion.  Make up with minerals like Bare Mineral foundation is ok but no liquid.  I can wear lipstick so that is a good thing.  I can not put lotion on my skin since it will absorb the oil so I need to find something to put on my skin after I shower.   My feet get so dry of I do not put lotion on them everyday.  I guess I could try to get away with a weekly pedi now.  I bet my husband will love that!! NOT!   I am going to miss my liquid foundation. 

I am still using my Macadamia Nut Healing Treatment Oil and loving it!! I use it on the ends of my wet hair then blow dry it.  It leaves my hair so soft.  I can not believe how great my hair feels with this oil.  It has never felt so soft ever in my life.  

I have read the first two LA CANDY books yesterday, I am working on reading the third one tonight.  I read in bed when my husband first goes to sleep.  He snores so I can't fall asleep when he first goes to bed.  

ULTA has a special going on right now on the TIGI dry shampoo and HARD HEAD hair spray for $6.99, which is my favorite so I will be stocking up.  I love that hair spray if you guys have never used them.

Day One: HCG Diet

I am having a hard time believing that I gave my self an injection but it didn't hurt to do so.  I don't feel any different or anything.  I may go up on the dosage from 30 cc to 40 cc. I didn't jittery or sluggish.  I have had tons of energy today.  I haven't ate more than usual actually I ate less.  Today is also a load day but have not felt hungry enough to pig out.  My emotions are not out of  control that was one thing I worried about.  Its only the first day so I still have 22 days to go.  I really want to do good on this diet and see the results.  I will continue to write about my diet also.  I am starting out the heaviest I have ever been in my life.  I won't say my actual weight but it is way up there on the scale.  I will weigh myself in the morning and say how much I lost in a day.  

Stay tuned to hear about results!!!

Slow Internet & Feeling Blue

I really dont have anything exciting to really update on.  I used my Macadamia Oil Shampoo today, I really liked it so far.  I didnt even have to use conditioner after.  It left my hair really soft.  I am trying to decide at the moment what I want to paint my nails.  I am totally bored with what I have and I need to go buy some new colors.  I am waiting for Itunes to download my shows so I will have something to watch.  

Only real exciting news is that I am thinking about opening a little clothing store on EBAY, maybe some make up also.  I really want something more to do with my time.  I love being a housewife, dont get me wrong.  Laundry, cooking, cleaning only occupies so much time.  

I am thinking about getting my MAC pro card.  I do make up for people anyways, I really do love it.

Small Weekend Haul

I went shopping over this weekend and lots of my EBAY packages arrived.  I was super excited about all of my products finally here.  

I got YSL lipstick in Voodoo Brown, it is the prettiest color on me so I am super excited about it.  I will do a full review on it.  I got this lipstick on EBAY from beautyisrelative.  They also have a EBAY store, webpage and they are on YouTube.  

I also got my Macadamia Natural Oil Get Hooked Pack in the mail.  I ordered it last week and it was waiting for me in the mail.  It was $17.50 which was not bad for everything that you do get in the pack.  It comes with a Healing oil infused comb,Deep Repair Mask, Shampoo, and the healing oil treatment.  I will twitpic this pack as a little preview before the blog goes up.  
I am going to do a blog review on this later this week, after I have used all of the products.  

I also got a Smashbox lipstick in Raspberry Creme, it is so nice also.  I purchased it from EBAY from mccaracatsamis.  She also has a website, www.starrstylecosmetics.com.  She also included a bunch of fun gifts for me to try out.  

Last but not least I got everything in for my HCG diet so I will be starting that next week for sure.  I have to wait three days after your period to start this diet to be on the correct cycle for the 23 day round.  I will be blogging on the progress I make.

New Obsession....PANDORA

II have a new obsession I have to ramble about.  Pandora jewelry!! I got my Pandora Bracelet for my birthday last month.  I got the silver clasp bracelet, I have started to fill it up with Love & Hugs, Journey, Star and Palm tree charms.  I also have Murano glass beads also, two of the heart beads and one flower bead.  I love my bracelet!

Silk Therapy Shampoo, Lush Soap Review & Other Ramblings

Since I am almost done with the nine loads laundry right now seemed like the best time to to my blog.  I still haven't found my husband's missing credit card but we did find his phone.  He would lose his head if it wasn't attached to his shoulders.  I love my husband but I seriously don't have any idea how he made it all this time without me. Poor guy! 

When I was in Louisiana in June I went to Lush for the first time, I bought tons of things for myself and my family.  I had gotten a Lush bath bomb from a friend three years ago, I loved it! When I was there I got a sample of Honey I washed the kids. I loved how it smelled and how it felt on my skin so I went to a Lush when I was in Houston. I have been using it for three weeks now.  My husband used it when he ran out of body wash.  It smells so wonderful, it lingers on the skin after the shower.  It has like a honey comb on one side of the bar which I use as a scrubber.  I bought the bar for a little over $10, which I didn't think was too expensive since I have yet to find a body wash that I love as much as this soap.  I recommend this bar to my family all the time.  


I was in Ulta the other day and found Silk Repair Shampoo on sale for $6.99.  I wanted to try it because the hair treatment was so awesome.  I could not believe that I found the shampoo for so cheap because in the Salon this shampoo has always been at least $20.  I have been using this for about three weeks also.  I rotate it with my Bed Head Control Freak shampoo.  I really do not like this shampoo, my hair doesn't feel clean after I use it.  My hair feels oily within hours of washing it.  I was really disappointed in the shampoo.  I will be passing my bottle on the my sister to see if she has the same idea about this. 








I did make it to the store to get a color shampoo, today is the first day that I will use it.  Also, I am going to try the fruit detox before I start my HCG diet.  I plan on having several blogs going the coming weeks.

Morning Online Shopping

I never made it to the store last night, I got distracted with my husband losing his credit card.  I have to go tonight, I have six loads of laundry to do tonight.  So, I making lists of things to pick up and shopping online right now.  

I have a problem with shopping on several websites at the same time, comparing prices, who has it the cheapest then buying the item from that website.  I want to buy some new nail polishes, face products and color shampoo.  I also used all of my favorite drugstore foundation yesterday, I hope that there is enough for today.  I use Revlon Colorstay foundation in Sand Beige, I die for that foundation.  I've used that foundation for over a year now and I still love it.  Its great on my skin, doesn't break me out, which most do.  I don't have to use a powder over it if I didn't want to many layers on my face.  It is really a nice foundation that can be purchased from the drugstore, I used to buy only MAC foundations but they break my face out now.  


I am shopping on EBAY right now also, I am looking for cosmetics and nail polishes.  Sometimes you can find special edition sets or hard to find sets cheap.  I am excited to shop today because my EBAY bucks have come in, its a reward program that EBAY does now.  Check out the website for all of the details and sign up.

First Blog!!! YAY!!

I am writing my first blog, being the shallow vain person that I am I decided why not do it.  I have plenty of shopping trips that I could talk about, I live at the Outlet Malls, salon, Ulta, Sephora or online shopping my life away.  I do buy for other people beside myself.  

I got my hair done yesterday, I cut another 3 inches off, lightened my hair a couple of shades to a chocolate brown color, I am getting highlights next week.  I decided to do something different with it.  Every three years or so I get the itch to color my hair.  Last time I did chunky highlights, they were cute for like a day then the blonde turned green.  It was so awful!! 

I was shopping on Ebay and bought some YSL lipstick, I will do a picture & a review for it when it comes in.  I am excited about it I haven't tried YSL cosmetics ever.  I am mainly a MAC girl.  But recently my face is breaking out really bad so I have decided to be on a strict skin care routinue to try to get my skin clear.  I even had to change what I used on my skin because it wasnt clearing my skin at all.  I always used Clinque before but it wasnt working.  I changed to only using the Clinque clarifying lotion 4 & the Acne Solutions bar in the shower.  I used to use all of the steps but my skin was getting worse instead of better.  I added a few items that you can pick up at the drug store.  I now use the Clean & Clear 3 in 1 scrub, the St Ives scrub in the shower I rotate the two.  I really love using the Neutrogena Acene Stress Control 3 in 1 Hydrating Acne Treatment.  It smells good & makes my skin feel great! 

I went to Coach picked up a wallet that I needed, I love the way this wallet is organized.  It has a zipper compartment & tons of slots for cards.  I don't like for my wallet & purse to match so they are two different colors.  I chose the paprika color wallet, its way cute!  


I have several lipsticks coming in the mail, its the one thing I needed so when they all get here I will review those to let you guys know what I liked & disliked about them.  I just got my coastal scent 88 ultra shimmer palette so I have been using this for about a week now so I will be reviewing it soon!  I have TONS of new stuff that I am using right now so I will review all of those things for you guys! If there is anything that you would like for me to review please leave me a comment.  
Thanks everyone for reading my first blog,  I am working on getting my Youtube channel going but I do have a twitter if you wanna follow me & I will follow you guys in return.
