Over the past month I have bought a lot of products (don’t judge me lol) I just been wanting to try new products and things. I told myself do not buy ANY new clothes until I lose some weight and honestly it has been pretty easy…the not buying clothes part [that is.] I am still struggling with the losing weight part. I am also trying to buy better quality clothes, and changing my style a little bit...in other words I am trying to wear more color. Anywaaaaays let me get into the details of some new items that I have been LOVING lately.
1. First and foremost, let’s get into this IVY’S TEA, it is 100% Black owned and the tea is all natural, organic and amazing. The tea that I ordered was C.R.E.A.M which is loose leaf mint tea and it is better than bagged tea. I'm currently dealing with a stuffy nose, and have been drinking this tea every morning. It has been helping me a lot. Shanae the owner of IVY’S TEA also sells sweeteners for the tea, mugs, and other teas that are worth trying. Check it out at: ivystea.com
2. Next I bought some new earrings from a store called AVALON EXCHANGE which is similar to a Buffalo Exchange or a Plato’s Closet. They have so many styles to choose from but I decided to keep it nice and simple. check out their Instagram account: @avalonexchange
3. Your girl FINALLY bought some Fenty Beauty Pro Filter foundation in the shade #430 and I love it, it is a very light foundation so you will have to pump it a few times to get a full coverage. https://www.sephora.com/
4 . Ladies if you are looking for a eyeshadow palette for a beginner look no further ItsMyRayeRaye has a collaboration with BH Cosmetics, eyeshadow palette that includes 3 contours and highlights. I am learning how to apply eyeshadow, and I have been having fun with this palette. The colors are pigmented and not too crazy. Last time I checked out the BH Cosmetic website the palette was sold out so they might restock…maybe.http://www.bhcosmetics.com/bh-raye/itsmyrayeraye
5. Moving on to skin care I have been stalking Derma E website, my roommate loves their products so I gave it a try and I bought their Microdermabrasion scrub and it has been pretty good so far. I use it 2-3 times a week to exfoliate, the scrub that I was using before was not cruelty free so I had to change it up.
6. I also changed my moisturizer because I felt like it was not doing much for me so I started using Jásön crème every day and my skin loves it. If you do not have a moisturizer I would give it a try, I bought it from TJMaxx so I spent less than $10 on it.
7. Wavy Shea Baby it is a Shimmery Whipped Shea Butter, I have been using this product for a while, I am on my second batch. When I tell you this product works wonders you might…hopefully stop using coconut oil on your skin. I rub the whipped shea butter all over my body before I go to bed and I smell delicious and feel soft. http://www.thewavysheababy.com
8. Last item on my list is Soap & Glory Sugar Crush body lotion, I usually prefer shea butter but this lotion has been holding me down during this cold season. Anything that can keep my ankles moisturized is a go for me.
