Are You Ready????? For That Special Day

Hello everybody. How was your weekends? I hope they were filled with fun and chicken wings. Sorry for the Seahawk fans, I was really rooting for them. But lets not talk about that we are all here for some beauty.

My birthday is on Thursday but because I have to work I going out tomorrow (Tuesday). I know I will be taking a lot of pictures and I want to look my best. So I know I have to prep for the big day before hand. I have made the mistake in the past of not preparing ahead of time and having to rush around. Trust me I have left the house still painting my toes (not cute not cute at all).

First off lets start with the skin, because we all know we don't wake up lookin' flawless. I start by cleansing my face as usually but I always use a mask. This time I used the GlamGlow  YouthMud Tinglexfoliate Treatment. This is so nice. It tightens the skin and after 10 minutes you wet it and it exfoliates the skin. My skin was so soft afterwards and the blackheads on my nose were gone. My pores on my cheeks appeared smaller to. I did the mask the day before because I hadn't used it yet and I didn't want a disaster tomorrow.

 

Cuteness overload.... Not Really

No blackheads.

 

I know that I started with my face but I really started with my brows. I waxed them and tweezed the before I cleansed my face. I also waxed my legs. I really ask that no one wax themselves unless they know what they are doing. It could get very ugly. But I'm all for tweezing. (By the way ladies can we please stop saying "pluck" or "plucking". We're not chickens.) When you're removing the hair pull in the direction of the hair growth it won't break off and leave you with little stubbies. You also don't want to tweeze or get your brows waxed the day off a special occasion because if there is a mistake, you have time to fix it. When you wax you are removing the top layer of skin and you don't want to put makeup or really any type of product like that on the skin. Make sure you hold the skin taut, it helps it hurt less. I use slanted tweezers that have a handy comb on the end. It makes doing your brows so much easier.

 



 

 

On to the next on on to the next....step that is. Sunday night I washed my hair as usual but I was on Pinterest and saw that if you put coconut oil in your hair and let it sit over night that it helps it grow and it makes it very soft. I did it last week to see what all the hoopla was about and miss ma'am can I tell you it does all of that. It is so silky and my curls are so defined. I just take some in my hand to warm it up and cover my hair roots to ends. I sleep in it but I use a shower cap so it doesn't get all over my pillow. When I woke up this morning I washed my hair as usual and let it air dry. I feel like I should be in a shampoo commercial with these locks. 

 



Greasy coconut hair.

 



Excuse the weird face but that hair looks good.

 

 

All I have left to do tomorrow is my makeup and decide what I'm wearing. Which is the hardest of all. Wish me luck. I'm going to post my makeup, hair and what I'm wearing tomorrow on Wednesday so keep your peepers peeled for it. If you guys have and pins or beauty tips or tricks you would like me to try out just let me know. I love try new things. I hope I have helped you guys prepare for a special day or just the next day. I know prom is coming up so I hope you guys see this as helpful.
