What Is BB Cream?


So we know most women out there, including me, are coo coo for coca puffs about our make up and skin care products.  We slather, buff, and spackle our faces with our favorite products and are still on the look out for more.

Well there is a new product out there that women are going gaga over and that is BB Cream.  

Now I know you are asking yourself (because I know I did) what the heck is BB Cream?  Well I'll tell you its, amazing is what it is!

BB Cream which is short for Blemish Balm or Beauty Balm was originally used to speed healing after laser treatments. The craze started in Asia when Korean celebrates , saying this is the reason for their flawless skin.  And in recent years has made an appearance in the US.

In basic English, it is super powered tinted moistureizer. But wait there is more. It is a moisturizer, sunscreen, foundation, and concealer all in one. Not to mention the the skin improvement qualities.

I am not gonna lie I have been wanting to try this product but it is a little pricy.  So it was just a dream, until Garnier came out with the much more affordable Miricle Skin Profector All-In-One BB Cream!

I ran down to my local drug store and snatched it off the shelf. I ran back home giddy as a kid on Christmas to try it out!  Yes I was a little apprehensive about it because how many times have we gotten something  that promised the world only to be disappointed.

But this stuff is amazing.  Once you get used to it that is. Because it is a moisturizer it has to absorb into your skin, which doesn't take long. Afterwards,  you get this beautiful air brushed look of glowing skin.   I am hoping to try a different brand to compare, but until then I am happy with the Garnier.  

Here is a picture of me before an after. Same light, same camera, and no photoshop! Try it for yourself and see. You will love it!

It has been a while.

Photos from our wedding in Vegas.
I am sorry I haven't posted anything in a while but my life has gotten a little hectic as of late.  Just to let you know my husband, Bob had a heart attack on February 13th and had a bypass sugary.  So needles to say I have been a little preoccupied and busy.

He is doing much better now and we are taking it one day at a time in his recovery. Actually he has had an amazing recovery and I am so proud of him.  I will soon be posting new articles but I felt I needed to let you know why I took time off.  Thank you for understanding.

And Always,
Stay Fabulous

Fixing Tired Shoes


Have you got that one pair of shoes you love to wear, but they are worn, scuffed, or your new puppy used them as a chew toy? It's not a lot of damage, and you just can't bear to get rid of them, but there's enough damage that you wouldn't be caught dead in them.

Worn Out
Bad Puppy





















Yeah we've all been there. We pull them out of the closet (because they will go perfectly with this outfit!) just to sadly take them off, give a sigh, and put them back in their place.

Well here is a trick to help you out in this situation.




What you will need is Mod Podge, Glitter, and some Sponge Brushes.


Tip:Use the extra fine Glitter. The color I chose was Chestnut to go with the color of my shoes.













Pour some of the Mod Podge into a disposable container. You don't need a lot. Then pour some glitter in. You will need a lot of glitter.









Stir the mixture til it's well blended.








Use the sponge brush to apply the mixture. It will go on white, but as it dries all you will see is the glitter. It takes about fifteen minutes to dry. You will need at least three coats to get the results you want. Make sure you let each coat dry completely before starting a new one.








And here is your end result. A new pair of shoes like no one else has. And to answer the question I know you are thinking: the glitter doesn't rub off easily. Trust me, I rubbed the heel with my fingers to see if it would come off, and it doesn't. It is actually smooth to the touch. So rock out in some new sparkly shoes.

And Always
Stay Fabulous
