We have a ton of nail polish

I didn't realize just how much nail polish we have at our house until I started cleaning out the bathroom!

Between my 17 year old daughter and I, we have quite a collection!

I've avoided buying any more nail polish (oh what took me so long!).  The main reason isn't because I realized we had enough here, but because everytime I would buy a new nail polish I would realize I already have the same one here or it's so similiar!  Yes, I am a bit conservative when it comes to nail polish.

Then there's my 17 year old daughter, Katherine, with all her fun colors!  That is definitely not my style, but they look so cute on her! 

I think the craziest I've gone with nail polish is a dark grape color (woohoo).

What's your favorite color nail polish?

My Beauty Word of the Day - Slough!

I'm going to have a new segment on my blog called Beauty Word of the Day!!  Today's word is slough!  Yes, you heard me right, slough!

I'm not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV, but I do know that we need to shed those icky old dead skin cells to have our skin  glowing and youthful!

Keep an exfoliating facial cleanser in the shower so you'll remember to use it everyday.  My favorite right now is Olay Regenerist Advanced Anti-Aging Cream Cleanser.  Claim on the tube says "exfoliates to detoxify and speed cells' natural regeneration process";  I believe it!

Don't forget a body scrub too!  I have bought some great handmade ones on http://www.etsy.com/ (I'll try to get the specific shop names if you want).  Right now I'm using Softsoap Spa Radiant Body Wash.  "Exfoliating with mineral sea salts".  It smells great and I love the color (told you I wasn't a doctor).

So slough away and be radiant!

Slough!

My Beauty Blog

Hello there!  So glad you stopped by!  This is my beauty blog!  I love makeup, clothes, accessories, and all that girly stuff!

I'm going to try to update this blog more often, so if you have any ideas or questions, just let me know!

Beauty really does start from the inside! You really can't shine without starting with giving yourself some time to enjoy the little things in life!  I know we're all busy, but it really only takes 15 minutes to go outside and enjoy the beautiful blue sky! 

I love to take my camera along.  When I have my camera I seem to notice the little things I usually (and most of us) take for granted.

A rusty fence turns into beautiful art!  So does a blue sky with a hint of a gorgeous tree full of still-summer-green leaves!

Enjoy a few minutes to yourself!  Try yoga to relax, it certainly helps hyper-me!!

A perfect sky!

Don't forget-I'm looking for ideas and questions!

Take time for yourself!
