Day 4

I owe myself a work out.

Day 3

Core secrets and lots of walking :)

Day 2

My soreness hit me around noon today.

But...I pushed through. Today was alternative training followed by stretching to improve flexibility.

May Challenge

My goal is to work out daily during the month of May.

Here's today's workout with my personal trainer:

Walking lunges for the length of a room x 2

Box jumps x 25

Sledge runs with 45 lbs x 2

Squats and arm presses

All done three times

Then I did arms and abs...

Tomorrow cardio!!!

EOTD-You Can Do Blue Too

I finally created my first look that I'm comfortable sharing. I'm so proud.

I figured that my first look should be an homage to my first real make-up endeavor.

True Story: I was about 12 and I started playing in my mom's make-up. I was bored and figured someone ought to put it to use. The neutrals weren't really doing it for me, so I wanted something that popped. Full on 80's Blue!

Once again, I was beaming with pride and I went to show my mom my beautiful work. Her words, "Um, that's bright. Blue might now be the right color for you"

I was a pre-teen with attitude. I chalked it up her sipping on the hater-ade. In retrospect, I'm certain she was right.

So now its time to show her blue done right!

Is my hair ok?

Ok, I'm ready now!

MUFE 92

My first make-up post! Woah...

MUFE 92 has somewhat of a cult following among my lovely blogger ladies. Every time I see it used in a look I get all antsy and ignore where it will fit in my growing collection. So during my Spring Break trip, I took a trip to my personal Mecca (Sephora). I look at the MUFE display and lo and below, there is one single 92 eyeshadow.

I get home and swatch it...I'm no longer in love. I don't understand, many-a-time, I've swatched it and swooned. As I further investigate this phenomenon, I take a closer look at my box and what does it say: Powder Blush 92.

Le Sigh...I'm not quite certain that I still have the receipt for this and I'm not quite sure when the next time I'm going home is. Way to pull the wool over my eyes...lol. I should have known better. I don't really like the Sephora by my house, the displays are always so messy. I prefer the one downtown in my beloved WaterTower. But know that I've gotten used to driving everywhere and I spend my time in the burbs, it just doesn't seem like worth the hassle.

I'll keep you guys updated.
