My Beautylish Win

Yes I won something, ME. I thought to myself win I got an email in my inbox. (I talked about this in the post title "One Weird Day!!!") Well on the last Wednesday of October the FedEx man came knocking at my door. I opened not knowing that it was my winnings and that it was from one of my favorite site to talk about makeup/beauty and fashion- Beautylish.com. (Thanks Jasmine xoxo!)

When I opened the package I saw the cutest little box inside of all this pretty pink tissue paper. It was Oscar de la Renta Kaleidoscope palette- Ready to Wear. This palette of color is beautiful and appealing for all complexion, especially the red lip color. The palette also includes: Lip Creme, Radiance Powder Rouge and 2 True Colour Eyeshadow.  Photo of my item on the right.

I had an event to go to the next day and tried out my new palette. The shading was awesome, rich and moisturizing to my skin. I'm so happy and love the overall look of this palette. That night I had plenty of compliments of my look and of course have great praise to Oscar's Kaleidoscope to anyone who asked. Here are some photos I took of my look from that night. If you have this palette please post a comment with a photo of what it looks like on you.

One Weird Day!!!

Today when I got myself ready to face my daily routine, I notices something wasn't right. NO PHONE! I didn't hear it ringing just silence. So of course I ran through my place looking for my phone like it was my arm or better yet my fingers. Since my fingers are what makes the magic happen! I just couldn't believe that I misplaced my phone. The one most important thing besides my computer that's for my business.

Then I remember during my frantic search, my daughter use it this morning. So I went to her room and shared bathroom with her sister. Found nothing, absolutely nothing. Of course, I was frustrated and upset on next being able to call my clients, new business ventures and old friends. But then it hit me. SO WHAT! I can't get in touch with people by phone. Maybe you need a day to focus on SELF.

So I pulled out my yoga mat and got in tuned to self-relaxation and inner peace. Once I was done with my session. I came to my PC to check emails. I saw several posting of updates, newsletters and beauty/fashion news. Then one response back from someone who I've been wanting to work with for a sometime now. They respond with a YES, they would love to work with me and love my website with my work posted on it. I was in awe that someone who I've wishing to work with for a long time now finally wants me. Then that wasn't the only good news I've found in my emails today.

I enter into several different contest or giveaways in a day. Always something to do with beauty, since I am a makeup artist. Today when I went to me gmail account I saw a congratulations in the subject line. I was about to delete the contents but decided to read it first. I'm so glad I did! It was an notification telling me I have win a contest I enter in about a month ago. YAY ME!!!


Losing my phone was a great thing today! Because I would have just did what I always do...my daily routine and would have just either saw the info later or the next day. But I won't have put my mind at ease and focus on me, first. Just the business at hand. So my advice to you is to focus most of your energy on YOU first. Whatever that may be, for me is praying and meditation-this is where the yoga helps. For you can be walking your dog, taking a hike in a park or around your neighborhood or just sitting in a quiet room. But whatever it is please FOCUS ON YOU today.

This is all for now!
