Olive Oil and Honey Facial Mask

There's no time like having a great magazine, your robe on; and an amazing DIY facial mask on.



What you need:

-Extra Virgin Olive Oil (regular olive oil isn't as good for your skin)
-Honey



Why these ingredients?

Olive Oil- Be sure to use extra virgin olive oil, because it's much better for your skin. Extra Virgin olive oil won't clog your pores, and it will moisturize intensively your skin.

Honey- Honey has natural antibacterial properties; and it really moisturizes skin veryyyy well.

This mask is great for dry skin!


-Splash some warm water on your face to open up your pores
-Apply the mask all over; and leave on for 15-30 minutes
-Rinse off with cold water to close pores


I hope this helps you guys!
Have a great day!

MUST HAVES Checklist for Prom

That time of the year is coming once again...
Dance, Proms, graduations, parties, field trips...and of course summer!

Well, I'm actually going to a dance, and so I wondered...it would be pretty helpful if I kind of had a check list as I was getting ready for the dance. I picked up my notebook and started making one. After that, I decided...Why not share it with you guys?

So we're going to go "head to toe" (hopefully I get everything!) :


-HAIR. => How should I style it? Do I have the products needed? Should I wash that day, or the night before? Up or down?




-FACIAL => Do I want a facial? Should I go do a DIY facial or at salon?





-WAXING => Did I remember to wax upper lip...etc.?






-MAKEUP = > (super super big!) WHAT ARE MY MAKEUP LOOKS?






-BODY => Tip: No matter if your dance is one month or one day away; start drinking lots of water! Water will remove any toxins from your skin...which gives beautiful, radiant skin.

=> Again, no matter if you are one month or one day, I would highly suggest doing yoga or pilates before your dance. It will help tone your muscles.

TIP: For example, if your dress is strapless, try doing a lot of moves with ARMS to get toned arms. Or if you're wearing a mini dress, try getting moves with legs.





SKIN => Use a good good good body scrub before the dance! After that, moisturize intensively!





ShapeWear => If you are planning to wear shapewear with your dress, then make sure it fits you perfectly...and that no one can see that your wearing it!






PURSE => Do I have everything I need in my purse? http://tsorain.blogspot.com/2011/05/whats-in-prom-purse.html





NAILS => Am I going to the salon to get my nails done? Am I using artificial nails?





MANI/PEDI => Do I want a manicure and pedicure before the dance? Do I have my appointment? Or am I giving myself a DIY manicure/pedicure?




TAN => Do I want a tan? So should I spray tan (recommend) or go actually get a tan?






DRESS => Are you pleased with your dress?



I hope that you guys enjoyed this!

Here's a little tip: Prepare for the Worst.

Make sure you have everything you possibly need in your purse (if it fits!), ...but the key to having a great event is to just smile and have fun!

So what if your makeup came off, or your hair is nappy, or your arms are flabby, or if you have zits..? JUST SMILE...LAUGH, AND HAVE A GOOD TIME !

When people see you...your smile is the absolute first thing that people see first! If your happy...then their attention won't go to your imperfections...it'll stay at the smile!

Sorry if that was confusing...but have fun! haha!

celebrate!
