Rockstar Workout?


Tried it for the first time Saturday morning!  And now I'm mad sore the day after!  Instead I my usual trip to the donut shop, I decided to go to the gym.  And let me tell you, it was the best decision ever.  I finally found a gym I love!  And I'm taking into consideration the ones I've joined on the West Coast and the ones I visited in the Midwest!  The Vanderbilt is about 5 minute from my house and has the best classes and instructors.  It never gets crowded either.  

 But more about this workout.  I was skeptical, but I'm always one to try something new.  And let me tell you the weighted drumsticks gave me a good upper body workout and the music tricked me into doing so many squats and lunges in a 45 minute time frame... I would have never known until I woke up this morning with my gluts and inner thighs sore like they have never been before.  Guess my body was getting use to the treadmill because I had been doing that for months and I never ever felt this sore!  

I've also started doing hot power yoga.  The first time I tried it I was so intimidated I couldn't enjoy it.  I went back again earlier this week with the mindframe that I don't have to perfect every pose and I just do as much as I could until the next class.  And let me tell you, I felt amazing and I think I may be hooked!  It is a good thing I overslept because there was a session today, but I'm way too sore and should use this as my rest day!  I may go to the gym later just for a light treadmill workout though.  I hope to keep this up and drop 30 pounds!!!!  I keep saying that but maybe this time i will be successful with all these new fun classes I'm joining!

Sugar Lids


They say your eyes are a window to your soul.  And some mornings my eyes look so tired and dead.  Not quite the impression I want to translate to the world about my soul.  This little square pot of white sheen makes me look eyewaken.  I apply it every day no matter what other shadow(s) I use.  It really brightens my eye look.  So many ways to use it too.  Apply it to the inner corners of your eye, on your bottom eyelids, the top lids, or all the above!  A bit of this and some eyeliner, I look like a new person.  If another shadow looks too harsh I apply a bit of this and blend.  It softens and adds just that little bit of soft sparkle.  Only $1.99 and in love with how it's compact and easy for travel.  WnW has nailed the drugstore eyeshadows!

2% Milk

Looking for a DIY nail polish that is cheap but looks expensive?  Try 2% Milk by WnW!  The bigger brush and nice formula makes application a breeze:)  Only $1.99 and a great alternative to the pricier OPI line.  I use to only use OPI, Essie, or Orly until I tried these nail polishes by WnW!  Love them all but sometimes I just don't feel like spending $7-9 on one bottle of polish.  Now I don't have to either!
