It’s All About Finding Calm In The Chaos
So, hello friends! It’s been a while. I’ve been busy getting a new job, fighting my bipolar illness, moving, being a mom and trying to be a girlfriend. This post, sadly, is not going to be makeup related, simply because I did not prepare anything for that because I just need to vent and get…
Take Care
Hello, loves! Sorry it’s been so long. I’ve been on kind of a writing hiatus. I’ve lacked inspiration to write and inspiration to do just about anything. It was recently pointed out to me that I don’t take care of myself. I don’t take care of my surroundings. I pretty much only take care of…

Into a Place Where Thoughts Can Bloom..
There is almost nothing I love more than when someone says to me “I love your makeup!” As a young girl, teenager and now young adult/new mom, I have struggled with body-image and self esteem issues. I tried to hide the pain of hating myself, my depression and certain unfortunate circumstances I found myself in…
