When I was younger..........

I had to vent! lol today this is what I was feeling so I decided to type it down!

Its funny how when I was younger there was these peeps that loved to pick on me thought I wasn’t going to be anything! But look at me now you haters! I'm happy to say I have experienced so much and learned so much to be what I am today! I'm proud that I have the knowledge to give my children the knowledge they need not to deal with this kind of unnecessary environment. Even today peeps be hatin I always wonder when this was going to stop I mean I dealt with it when I was younger and now I'm still dealing with it even today as a Married, Mother of two woman. I'm happily married and peeps trying to split us apart! ~ I’m telling you right now I'm praying for you! I just want to be happy and live my life without you in it! Get your own life! I just hope one day I can say Hey friends I forgive you! But until that day I'll be praying for you! I'm not giving up on my family! I'm going to do whatever is possible to stay together so step back snitches....
p.s. u need that lord in yo life!

random art online for inspiration...


I am going to be using this art into a makeup look and will post the pictures soon, look out for it!

some facts about makeup

Fact 1 - Makeup first made an appearance during early Egyptian times, when women painted their eyes, applying dark color under the eyelid and blackening their eyelashes.

Different natural elements were used, such as charcoal for eye painting, flowers for perfume and natural henna for nail polish.

Fact 3 - The origin of the word cosmetics comes from the Latin word Cosmetae, which was used to describe the slaves during Roman times whose function was to bathe affluent Romans in perfume.

Fact 4 - During Victorian times, upper class society women hardly wore any makeup at all. This was left to stage actresses, working class women and prostitutes!

Fact 5 - During Renaissance times, women wore arsenic powder on their faces to obtain porcelaine white skin. This practice was discontinued when too many husbands became the casualty of this unhealthy fashion!
