Friday Fitspiration!

If you see me at the gym you will most likely find me in the weight traning area! I do a quick cardio warm up then I get right to the weights! I've toned up so much and have really been liking the results I'm seeing! I have shared this video on Facebook but I wanted to share it here in case anyone missed it. I modeled my workout after this on Monday with the weights dumbed down a bit. It's difficult as any good workout is, but I think the results will be well worth it! Check it out:

Book Series Recommendations?



I mentioned earlier this week that I was reading 50 Shades of Grey. Well, I have finished it and I'm on to book two! I had dinner with a friend last night and I was helping her think of other book series that she should read.We both agreed that we prefer series because if we finish one book and we want more...there's more! So, my question for all of you is...Besides the obvious Twilight, Hunger Games and 50 Shades of Grey series, what other series of books are you loving??

Beauty Tip Tuesday: DIY Sea Salt Spray



Ok, let's be real...I'd much rather actually be at the beach. BUT I don't think that will happen this summer so I'm gonna have to bring the beach to me...or to my hair. Here's an easy way to get beachy hair without stepping foot on the beach!

What you'll need to create your textured, beach waves:

-A clean spray bottle that holds at least 8 fl. oz. to 10 fl. oz.

-8 fl. oz. of water. 

-Sea salt. Use 1 tsp for each 8 fl oz of water.

-Coconut scented conditioner for the "beachy" scent but it also helps counteract the drying that the salt will do. I used 1/2 a tsp - feel free to use more if your hair tends to be a bit more dry.

-Just a dab of hair gel.

Mix all of your "ingredients" together and you're done!

Friday Fitspiration: How bad do you want it?!

I want to share a very special quote with you today from ET the Hip Hop Preacher...


I'm not going to say too much about this because I think it is very self explanatory. What I will say is... while getting frustrated with your fitness goals you should keep this in mind. If you are just going through the motions and not giving it all you've got...maybe you don't want it all that bad. But if you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, you will put 110% into EVERYTHING you do!

If you really want to be motivated I highly reccommend downloading The Blueprint 2 Success Volume 1 here! I've only had this free mixtape for a week and it already has lit a fire under me!

Also check out his YouTube page for even more inspiration!


Enjoy your weekend!

Top 3 Thursday: Summer Makeup Favorites!

Happy Friday Eve! It's another Top 3 Thursday so I want to share with you 3 of my favorite products that I'm loving for the summer!


1. Benefit's High Beam Luminizer


I'm in love with this product! It's such a pretty, pearly, pink color! I use this on my cheek bones and brow bone for a highlighter. I think the nail polish looking packaging is so cute. This product is perfect for the summer because it's light weight and gives you a healthy looking summer glow!



2. Too Faced Beauty Balm


This is another light weight product which is perfect for the summer heat! I love this product because it doesn't make you look "cakey" and no one wants that in the summer or any other season! Be warned though that this does not give as much coverage as a regular foundation because this is a beauty balm.  It has a bit of shimmer to it and I'm all about healthy glowing skin this summer so this beauty balm works great!


3. Urban Decay's Naked Eye Pallette

This is my go-to eye pallette! It has a lot of neutral shades which I love. You can create both natural and dramatic looks with this pallette. It's perfect for transitioning from a day to night look!
