I wanted to do this quick review on a couple of things new to me that I am in love with. I'm not a total girly girl. I don't mind getting my hands dirty, but I always love an opportunity to get all dressed up and feel beautiful. As a full time working mom and wife, I don't get those chances very often. So, when I can have or do little things to make me feel more like a woman and less like a scrub I will take it!
The first thing I want to talk about is my new Z Palette. I saw this in a video by Emily on Beauty Broadcast on YouTube. There is a link to her YouTube Channel on my page under "Things You Should Check Out." She does a lot of great reviews on different products and celebrates "drug store" products I can actually afford. If makeup is your thing, definitely check her out! But I digress....the Z Palette.
ZPalette.com sells these great little empty makeup palettes that have a magnetic back. The purpose is that you can take all of you little individual eyeshadow singles, duos, trios, quads, or blushes, bronzers, or just whatever and take them out of their original packaging then put them into the one larger palette. It cuts down on a lot storage space you need to hold all of those little packages as well as keeps your stuff in one easy to use and transport package. It is super simple to use and really cute too! They come in two sizes and four styles (black, pink, leopard, and zebra prints) and have a clear, hard plastic "window" on top so you can see what you have in there. I got mine about 2 months ago from the website and I love it! I will put the link to the website at the bottom of this post so you can check 'em out.
The other thing I wanted to talk about is spray tanning. We all know how dangerous tanning beds are for our skin, but may love having that bronze glow. Some people look beautiful with fair skin, but for those of us that adhere to the "dark fat looks better than white fat" policy, I strongly recommend looking into the spray tan. I got my first one about a month ago and knew instantly I was hooked. My sister is a stylist at The Hair Co. here in Conway and needed a guinea pig on which to practice this new skill, so I went and let her tan me.
The process includes standing in a little booth as naked as you are comfortable and being airbrushed from top to bottom. It is a little cold, but not uncomfortable. Then you stand in front of a fan for a few minutes to dry. That's it! The whole process only takes 30-45 min from start to finish. You can't shower for 8 hours and for that time you do kind of look like "a dirty hooker," as Ashley Evatt said on FB, but when you do shower that color blends and you look awesome! I will post a link to The Hair Co. website below this also if you would like to check them out and make an appointment. Ask for my sister Sarah Coker!
Feel free to message me with any questions or comments about these products. I hope you will try them out! Everything beauty should be about what makes you feel good and not what you do for anyone else. As we all know, true beauty comes from within. However, there is nothing wrong with giving the outside a boost too if it puts an extra spring in your step! Stay beautiful!
