Ode to Velvet Orchid 405 Lipstick ( Happy #NationalLipstickDay )

This is a love story of a girl who meets the right lipstick. You notice it across a crowed makeup counter. The name of this lipstick was Velvet Orchid . Though it pains me to admit it I only tried Velvet Orchid for the name. I thought it was a merging of Andy Warhol and Nick Rhodes two iconic men of inspiration ( did I just write that oh well its done) . My love affair with Velvet Orchid was to be sweet and brief for the Queen Estee Lauder banished it too the land of discontinued. Now to see my sweet love I must go to eBay to find the surviving tubes who evaded the exile.   I think of a quote from another man of inspiration William Shakespeare. In the play Romeo and Juliet  the pinnacle story of unrequited love when Juliet says "What's in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet."  .So there you have it my favorite lipstick Velvet Orchid  by Estee Lauder. Parting is indeed such sweet sorrow.  I've posted some snaps of my happy times with Velvet Orchid. I got one tube in the freezer for a special occasion.

My review of 3 Frizz Fighting Products

My hair is resistant to product . It wants to be wild and crazy. This morning I used Three products on my hair , With towel dried and combed through hair. I applied Paul Mitchell - Curls Full Circle leave in treatment . I used a dime size amount of the product working it in scrunching my hair. I ate a bowl of Rice chex and almond milk. Got dressed feed the cat . My hair was practically dry . I added a pea size amount of Garnier Fructis Style Sleek and Shine . I finished off my curls with John Frieda Moisture Barrier Firm Hold Hair Spray.

Meghan Tonjes Body Image Warrior ( Hate The Donut, Not The Fatty.)

Honestly ! I couldn't agree more with Tonjes. This is exactly what it is like to be overweight in this world. Amen Lady ! You must absolutely love your self as you are now. What I've learned in my older mindset. Is that no matter what your body type you deserve love, happiness and acceptance. This is an excellent way to open up the dialogue.



"If I were 120 pounds eating a pizza in my underwear on Tumblr, I would be 'quirky' and 'cute' and 'real.' But if I'm 300 pounds and eating pizza in my underwear, people are gonna be like: 'You're killing yourself,' 'You're disgusting,' 'You're everything that's wrong with America!'" she said in her video.
