Throwback Thursday

My Throwback Thursday song for the night is "Get By" by Talib Kweli. This has always been one of my favorite rap songs. Not just because it has a great sound, but the I love the message. For anyone who has struggled for anything, you can relate to this song. Kweli murders his lyrics and the result is an inspirational song. 

 "This morning, I woke up
Feeling brand new, I jumped up
Feeling my highs and my lows
In my soul and my goals
Just to stop smoking and stop drinking
I've been thinking, I've got my reasons
Just to get by, just to get by
Just to get by, just to get by"

Sephora Goodies!

So after about a week of trying out all of these new goodies, I think I can now give a fair review of how everything is working out. I'm going to start with my favorite: Josie Maran Argan Matchmaker Serum Foundation : This is single handedly THE BEST foundation I have ever had. I have been using BB creams or tinted moisturizer lately because I want a little bit of coverage but not too much. This foundation is really light like a tinted moisturizer, but has the perfect amount of coverage. The liquid is white when it comes out of the bottle and then pigments to the color of your skin as soon as you apply it. Literally, the BEST.  Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Plumper : Lip plumper is my new favorite thing. I have thinner lips and using this gloss gives a little added volume. Beware, there is a tingling sensation that is not for everyone. I happen to like it, but some people may feel like their lips are burning. Use with caution!  BB Thickening Spray : I first started usi...

Fall Fragrance Wish List

There are so many fragrances I want right now!!! I made a list of my top five and where you can purchase them.  I love these scents more than anything right now and could smell them all day. What would be your top five? 1. Viktor & Rolf 'Flowerbomb'- Sephora, Macy's, Nordstrom 2. Givenchy 'Dahlia Noir'- Sephora, Macy's 3. Gucci 'Guilty'- Sephora, Macy's, Ulta 4. Yves Saint Laurent 'Manifesto'- Macy's, Ulta 5. Jimmy Choo 'Jimmy Choo'- Sephora, Nordstrom, Macy's, Ulta I love all of these perfumes because they smell feminine and seductive. If perfumes could smell seductive, these ones would. All of them have a long-lasting scent, too. The biggest mistake I use to make was to buy tons of perfume from Victoria's Secret, which smells great in the store, but fades within the hour. Paying a higher dollar for one of the five above is well worth it and will last you. You get what you pay for, especially wi...

The Pomegranate

Okay so I have been on this pomegranate kick lately. I think it's because every time I'm at home, I see these big pomegranates sitting in the fruit basket and my mom eats one every night. We always have them. I remember we had a pomegranate tree in our backyard in the house I grew up in. I didn't even know the English word for them back then. I think I actually just learned it a few years ago when I saw them sprouting up every where. Anyway, ever since I was a kid my mom and I ate these things. She would peel some for me and sprinkle sugar on them. It was delicious. So the other day, I grabbed one and started to cut it. It's pretty fun eating these things because it's an event. You work for your food and you're entertained while doing it. I've been eating one just about every night this week so I wanted to find out some more stuff about the health benefits. Have you ever heard how they say vegetables and fruits that look like parts of your body are go...
