“While I try to teach my son all about life, my son will teach me what life is all about.”

We all remember riding the Mary go round but, do you remember being that kid... the fearless worry free messy faced kid. I remember the just of it. I'm not going to dwell on the past but embrace it as a positive chapter in my life in making me who I am TODAY. Rising my son has been the most rewarding thing I've ever come by the most bravest thing I've ever done and the deepest love I've ever loved. I see a loving caring and amazing baby just wanting to be loved. I will rise this child from my mistake's I have made and life lessons that got thrown my way when I was lest expecting it. I look forward to learning more about myself from my son as the year's go on. : )

Coffee, energy for your skin

Besides one of the most active coffee components – caffeine that promotes lymph flow, coffee includes other useful substances, such as fruit and organic acids, fats, alkaloids, minerals, potassium, magnesium and iron. Coffee oil that is rich of linoleic acid prevents skin from aging and makes it more elastic, and also it has anti-inflammatory properties.

Well, we got added evidence that coffee is undoubtedly very very useful. And now here are some coffee beauty secrets for our skin. Of course one should use ground coffee, but not its instant analog!

Refreshing Face Lotion

Make strong coffee, pour it into ice trays and freeze. Then wipe your face by the derived ice pieces. Such coffee lotion would do a great tonic and refreshing action to your skin.

Toning Lotion

In the mornings one should wipe the face skin by cotton pad, wetted in freshly brewed coffee. This coffee lotion not just tones the skin but also adds a delicate tanned tint to it.

Face Anti-Wrinkle Mask

Dilute a spoonful of rye flour with cold strong coffee and bring it to a thick cream condition, after add an egg yolk and knead it carefully. Apply the derived mixture to your face and wash it off in 15 minutes.

Anti-cellulite Body Wrap

Spread heated coffee grounds on the problem areas of your body and wind them in plastic wrap. Leave it for 15-20 minutes and then wash off. Such body scrub can be applied twice a week. Also you can simply add ground coffee to your favorite shower gel and make gentle massage.

Also coffee can restore gloss and saturation of dark hair.

Coffee Mask for Dark Hair

Beat up two egg yolks and a spoonful of rum with two spoons of warm water, and then add a spoonful of ground coffee and vegetable oil. Apply to your hair and leave for 5 minutes, after wash off with warm water.

And here is another coffee beauty secret shared by Jennifer Love Hewitt:

If you need to recover your dark hair gloss quickly: cool freely brewed strong coffee and spray it on your hair, then comb it carefully. And that’s that! ;)

WHAT!? BOX HAIR DYE!!!!?????

Ok I know this is going to go against EVERYTHING I went to school for but I'm a new mom of very active and awake half the time baby!

I have black hair as you all know...

what you might not know is I also have BLONDE roots! I know CRAZY right!?

So this blog is more of a shout out to my Mommy friends with a sold dark color to there hair!

DO NOT TRY THIS IF YOU ARE BLONDE. BLONDE BOX DYE IS THE DEVIL!

Anyways moral of the blog is I hate even doing the root touch up with the brush and all takes to much time and is so messy and not baby safe if they start crying right in the middle of you applying color to your hair!

I went to Shoppers Drug Mart yesterday and picked up this box of hair dye called

Sublime Mousse # 20 for black hair. $17.00

This stuff is AMAZING!!!!!!!! FOR MOMS it's like putting on shampoo and lathering it all over your hair and it covered everything! and took me 5 mins to apply and sat with it in my hair for 30mins. when you wash it out there is no think sticky mess to wash out it comes out just like shampoo would soft and no mess.

If your a mom and you have little to no time on your hands this stuff amazed me and coming from a hairstylist it's a quick and easy fix for the time being.

Hope this helped anyone kill some home hair dying time! have a great day

by for now! <3

Lemon & Sugar Face Scrub

let's get some perfect skin!

Do you have any of the following:

ance

freckles

age spots

blackheads

skin discoloration

pimples or zits

sun spots

dull looking skin

Lemons have BHA (beta hydroxy acid - the skin-slougher-off-er AKA anti-aging wonder!)

Beta hydroxy acid work as an exfoliant, causing the cells of the epidermis to become "unglued" setting the old. dead skin cells free, making room for regrowth of fresh, new skin. Beta hydroxy acid is known to improve wrinkles, roughness, and mottled pigmentation! yeah baby!

AHA- (alpha dyroxy acid- AKA the skin improver)prevents clogged pores, enhances cell renewal through exfoliation (which makes you look younger!). AHA's help hydrate the skin, increase collagen production, and improve skin texture, making it appear more glowy and beautiful.

So get out your:

Organic Lemons (or Organic Lemon Juice)

(organic) SUGAR

cotton balls or cotton rounds (or even a washcloth)

Scrub for 5 mins and rinse !

Levi's Curve ID Jeans

I am so excited because Levi's is coming out with a new design of Jeans called " Levi's Curve ID "
They came out in the states last month and I went to the Levi's store in Canada and we are getting them in next month so "April" sometime.

This is such an amazing idea I came across this on another bloggers site. They take your measurements of your butt, waste, thighs and calves ankles and your length. After all that you have a verity of different styles and washes of jeans to pick from. Then you have your perfect CUSTOM JEANS!

You can do this in the store or if you take your measurements at home you can get your jeans online at... http://explore.levi.com/news/levis-curve-id/

I'm so excited for this baby to come so I can go lose my baby fat and get the jeans asap it's such a good idea for new moms and people that just can't find those perfect jeans.

One more thing before I go they only make the jeans for women sorry guys!
