Smokin' Smoky Eyes

Smoky Eyes...Step-by-Step

We don't always have time to visit a makeup artist before heading out for a holiday party or an event. So here it is...smoky eyes step-by-step. If you haven't tried Arbonne eye shadows, they have fantastic coverage and the colors are spectacular.





 
Have fun with your shadows and be your most beautiful you!
 

Meditate on this

Meditation has never been easy for me because I am a thinker. I like to think through things and I find it hard to just stop and feel the moment. I have found a great way to "meditate" and perform a much needed beauty ritual that I want to share with you. I use Arbonne's FC5 Skin Conditioning Oil. While I massage a small amount into each cuticle, I identify one thing in my life that I am thankful for and why. That gives me ten things to be grateful for and helps with maintaining my attitude of gratitude. And my cuticules look fabulous! Because Arbonne uses only botanically-based ingredients and no mineral oil, the products absorb into your skin and they do what they say they will do. Even after you wash your hands!

Egg Nog, My Friend


Thanksgiving is next week. This year I will not eat until I feel like I need to hibernate like a bear for the winter. I am under control and I am smarter. Are you?

Arbonne's 30 Days to Feeling Fit has helped me immensely. I feel great. I am a mom of 3 (my oldest is 8), I have 2 businesses, I volunteer, my husband travels. I love my life. I don't wake up dreading everything I have to do...I say, "Bring it on! Let's do this." Because I feel good. That's the difference.

Are you picturing me as a hard body, boot camp momma? You are totally wrong. I am curvy. I work out when I fit it in and it is usually a walk with my family. I know someday I will be back to serious workouts like I used to do but for now I am happy with me. I am healthy too because of what I am putting in my body. Arbonne has made that so easy for me because I do well with easy.

So to celebrate the beginning of the holiday season, here is a recipe I found to replace the Mickey D's Egg Nog Shake. Who wants to wait in a drive-thru anyway.

Egg Nog Protein Shake
2 scoops Vanilla Arbonne Essentials Protein Shake Mix
4-6 oz Dairy Free Nog Coconut milk
1 scoop Arbonne Essentials Daily Fiber Boost (ONLY 1 scoop a day!)
Nutmeg
Ice (depends on how icy you like it...I use 5-7 cubes)
Add water to achieve desired texture
Blend!

Which Christmas carole do you start singing when you sip this satisfying holiday treasure?

Been so long since I felt this way

It's not you, it's me. I've grown and I need more. There's nothing you could have done. Really. I need to do this and see where this path takes me. Yes, we really did have it all and I still love you.
He he! So cheesy but I am not talking to a guy, I am talking to my old life. I really did have it all before starting Arbonne. I believed it too. It wasn't until eight months after first hearing about the business opportunity and with a little extra push from fate, that I knew I needed to do this for me.
Now I have 2 careers because I love my small web development/social media company. Before I decided to start my Arbonne business, I knew I wanted to share these amazing products...I just didn't know when I would find the time. Then I met an Executive National Vice President who told me the busiest people end up the most successful consultants. I still didn't get it until I heard her say, you fit it into "the nooks and crannies of your day." That was when the light bulb lit up or me and I could start visualizing success in this business. Arbonne fulfills a need for me that my other business does not...the need to help women be their best with the best beauty products on the market and a career opportunity to match. Bam! And I get to work alongside fabulous people...how could I let an opportunity like that get by.
