Hey Beauties!! Here's the latest video in our Double Duty Beauty
series. Today I will show you how to create a quick and simple lip
scrub using lip balm and sugar. I actually recorded this video in my
parents back yard while nursing an injured foot and trying my best to
keep my two nieces from shaking the camera. As you can see that didn't
work out too well...LOL. I hope you enjoy today's video. Please leave
your comments and let us know what you think!!
In
today's Double Duty Beauty episode I will show you how to create a spa
pedicure in the comfort of your home. I remember when I first came up
with this beauty recipe. I was in college and I believe it might have
been in 96 or 97. I read in a magazine a few weeks before how
beneficial milk was to the skin. I remember like it was yesterday. I
was home from school on winter break and I had no where to go. So I
decided I would try to recreate the milk bath I read about. However, by
the time I made it to the fridge I found there wasn't enough for a
bath, but there definitely was enough for a pedicure. So I took what
was left poured into one of those electric foot tubs poured in the warm
water and freshly squeezed oranges. I even cut up the oranges and added
them to the foot basin and sat back and relaxed.......oh those were the
days!!!!
Every time I go to check out at my local supermarket I always see
these lollipops that are labeled organic. I just had to share it with
you all. The first time I saw it my reaction was....."organic candy?"
I'm not totally ignorant I realize candy can be organic. I guess I
always associate the word "organic" with all things healthy and candy
is just the opposite.
I can't believe I went a whole week with out posting!! As much as I
love interacting with everyone here at the blog, on twitter &
FaceBook I just couldn't seem to break away from all the extra
activity. This week we were busy scouting locations for our Blissful
Body workshop, shipping product for a huge event, receiving, sorting
& storing inventory, shipping the weeks orders, taking a minute
Thursday to baby sit the niece & nephew (never enough arms, ears
& tissues for those two...lol) not to mention we were taking calls
and answering email the whole time!!....what a week. So much more to
look forward to next week.
Hey Everyone!! I finally posted the first video in my Double Duty
Beauty series. I hope you enjoy it. Recording this video was such a
challenge....putting it nicely...lol. So many things went wrong during
the recording. My cel phone rang, then the intercom rings...it's UPS
with a delivery that's NOT for
me & then to top things off I hear what sound like industrial
strength chain saws.... it's the parks department cutting up a tree
that had fallen Saturday during our mini hurricane. So if I seem a
little scatter brained that's why. The out takes are hilarious. I
should put together an out take reel...LOL!!
Today I'm really living up to the tag line of this
blog "A Day in The Life of a Beauty Entrepreneur". I'm in the process
of re-branding and I wanted to share my journey with you.
Here's a quick announcement about our Double Duty
Beauty series. While I'm busy the next few months doing some
re-branding at the site and business over all I've decided to a few
more videos and update you all on my steps to re-branding here on the
blog. The first video will be released next week!!
Today's post is very random. But, I have to put the question out there. Have any of you tried drinking coconut water?
The last time I tried drinking it I was a little girl and remember
telling my mom it taste like "sock juice". Please don't judge me for my
childhood ignorance. It doesn't taste like sock juice at all....anymore
LOL. I felt compelled to give this natural beverage another try a few
weeks ago when I noticed on the fourth day of taking my Bikram Yoga class
that a few of the members were drinking coconut water, the kind that
comes in the sippy size cartons, instead of water. I'm aware of the
natural health benefits like the insane amount of potassium
a serving contains and its ability to hydrate on a cellular level. But,
I also noticed that it gives me a huge boost of energy. Now I want to
know "is my mind playing tricks on me?". I don't know. But, every time
I drink it I'm buzzing all over the place like I just had two cups of
coffee. Is it just me or is this a natural energy booster?
