Bomb Strip Eyelashes

Beauty/ Makeup

I was sent these amazing 3D Mink eyelashes by a company called, “Private Label Extensions” in the style of, ‘Claire’.  I typically wear individuals but every once in awhile, your face needs  little extra drama.  That’s where strips come into play and these are perfect!!!

What makes these so different is that with strips, they are typically thin and you have to double up to get this type of volume.  With the Claire lashes, you just need one strip. Check out my Instagram to see them in action and click on the link below to purchase NOW!

Major Hair Key Alert For That Awkward Growth Phase!

Were you browsing through Pinterest or Instagram and saw this amazing haircut that you just had to try?! Or maybe your hair was severely over-processed and you decided to cut it all off and start over?  When you first got your new haircut, you were getting compliments from every which way and you were loving it!  Then you decided to grow it back out, and us as African-American women, it literally grows OUT and not down. Now that you hair is cut, there is no hiding the naps before they turn into elegant coils, your right side is longer then left, and the compliments you were receiving are starting to phase out and turn into side-eyes.  The length of the awkward growth phase differs for everyone and to be very honest, short hair is high maintenance.  So what are you going to do in the meantime?Read More
