The Little Moments (Quote of the week)


Some of us get to caught up in our goals, our future, many of us think there are not enough hours in the day to get what we need done. We're so caught up in life that we forget to take a moment and enjoy those little things around us. We forget to appreciate those moments in our life, those moments that make up your life. Do you want to look back and realize you where so caught up in the future you didn't appreciate those hours, minutes, seconds that made up your life?





I've realized that these little moments, dancing around in the kitchen, waking up to the person you love and just taking the morning light across there face, somebody complementing you, are what make you well you. 

I get to spend a lot of time with my niece while my sister and brother in law are at work, she loves to dance and even though she won't remember these days I take them to heart, knowing she won't be this little forever, she has taught me to take in these things that happen realizing they won't stay like this forever and that they make up my life. Even on your crappiest days, when you feel like you aren't getting enough done there are still the little things that happened that day to make the world a better place, to make your day a little better, maybe it was someone who took the time to hold the door open for you, maybe it's just the sun shining brightly, there are endless possibilities, just for a moment forget the future and live in the present, because you will look back one day and realize you didn't just rush through life and took time to appreciate life. I personally believe that you'll be happier doing this.

3 Quick Tips On Painless Eyebrow Tweezing

Some days you look in the mirror and dread tweezing your eyebrows, let's be honest it can be painful plucking out those stubborn hairs. I used to wax my eyebrows..at home..by myself... Not the greatest idea especially for a 13 year old at the time who thought it was okay to put the entire wax strip on her eyebrow and rip it off.... We all make mistakes and most of us went through a bad eyebrow time. So for me I prefer using tweezers and these are the ways I make it a painless experience.

Revlon Love Collection Tweezers


  • Ice: Trust me it might be cold but this is one life savor especially if you hate any kind of pain. I just take an ice cube and rub it over the area that you will be tweezing to numb it.
  • Heat: Using a washcloth preferably run it under hot water or heat up water in a mug and put the washcloth in it, not too hot though you do not want to burn yourself, just like the ice you want to put the washcloth on your eyebrows and I recommend letting it sit there for a minute or two, the heat will help open up the pores/hair follicles and will make tweezing a lot easier.
  • After showering: Same affects as the washcloth in hot water, the steam from your shower will open up the pores making it easier to pluck. 
I also recommend using a pair of tweezers that are sharper not worn down it will make grabbing onto the hair easier.

Do you have any other recommendations or have these tips worked for you let me know below!
