8 more days

Words can't express how grateful I am for all the support I have been receiving in the Bobbi Brown Pretty powerful contest! I am so thankful to each person who is spreading the word on twitter,facebook, their own blog (Thank you soooo much JC, Akua and Zaidat among others), hair boards. Thank you sooooo much!!!
I am moved and humbled by the outpouring of love.

This experience has truly allowed me to make peace with the demons of the past(being bullied in school,self-esteem issues and overcoming excessive shyness).I see my reflection in the mirror with new eyes :)

We still have 8 more days to vote.
Please do not stop voting and spreading the word!
I am in position # 3 and would love to keep it that way and/or move higher.
Only the top 5 will make it to the next round.
You can vote multiple times until March 26th.
Thank you soo much again!!MERCI :)

Petals and peacocks

Isn't it so pretty!!!
It is from the MAC Liberty London collection :)
I love the packaging too!
I added cremestick liner in 80% to tone it down a little bit.
I am also wearing a little bit of MAC So Ceylon MSF on the cheeks, a touch of Stila stick foundation in J as a concealer,filled in the brows with MAC stud pencil and finished off the I-am-running-errands-look with Bobbi Brown Everyday mascara in Black.
Did you purchase anything from this collection? Share your haul :)

What I am loving this week

Coup de coeur: la boutique de Fleurtzy

It is simply rewarding and inspiring to see bloggers launch their own business ventures. I am faithful reader of Texture Playground for hair tips, hairstyles ideas, advices and other tidbits about natural hair.
On March 1st, Fleurtzy opened her store and of course I was among the first to be online, waiting to place my order.

Everything is tempting but I knew I couldn't use the hair butter and the hair serum since I am allergic to citrus oils ...they both have great ingredients though :)
So I settled for the hair oil which I received today :)
Everything was well-packaged and she included a thank you card :)

It is too early to give my verdict but so far I know it will work really well for me because it has ingredients that my hair loves such as sweet almond oil, jojoba oil,grapeseed oil among other nourishing oils.
I also love the fact that I can use it as a body oil!
Now the scent.....lavender and jasmine.
3 words: oh mon dieu!
I had to order more bottles!

I am soooo proud of Fleurtzy and can't wait to see her line grow!
