Double D is for …
Dissertation Defense * Dr. Dispo * BiG Day: December 8 ~ Save the Date!
After I passed my presentation with full faculty on Veterans’ Day, I followed my Bestie Evie‘s advice:
Take a Me QT Day.
While I still worked on revising my paper, I also set aside Spa Time this past weekend!
Facial Mask
Based on Fleur De Force‘s The Glam Guide, I used these ingredients for *acne and **dark spots:
Manicure
Then I treated myself to an at-home mani with the following gift sets:
and polished my finger nails with my own lacquers:

My top tip to achieving a lasting nail paint job:
Run freshly coated nails in cold water and dodge hot water!
- Cold water seals in moisture, while hot water repels and drys it out
- If I hand wash dishes, I wear special gloves
- I also wear gloves during hands-on activity
Massage
My good †Christian† friend and fellow prayer warrior, Lisa, came through again, introducing me
Thank GOD for these special gifts of blessings and wonderful company!

She was generous enough to give me more Mary Kay!

Brush Rush: Ready-to-Go!
The reason why she rewarded me with all of these products was because I tutor her grandson, who we rooted on in his basketball playoffs ~ yet I’m the one who’s reaping the rewards.

The compartments keep my cosmetics organized!
All of these will come in handy when I take off for my professional and †spiritual† trip tomorrow!

My fave must-try is the Mint Bliss Energizing Lotion for my lower bod ~ I may lather on before I run on the beach!
I’m extremely grateful for these gifts ~ especially because I’ve been so busy with attending to my students and my own studies to bother with enhancing my beauty lately!

Of course, I need cotton balls and swabs for makeup and skin care application and removal.

Therefore, my CVS ExtraCare card came in handy!

Due to the BOGO FREE promo, I bought two of each and spent less than 2 dimes!
Plus, I have another amazing massage lined up today before I leave town!

While I do my best to pack light and stay somewhat low maintenance while traveling, I admit that I must maintain a grain of vain!
Therefore, during my EP trip, I brought trial-sized travel-friendly products, including:
Also, I visited A’GACI at Ft. Bliss …

… and ended up with this!
My friend and I represented her husband’s UTEP school colors ~ orange and blue ~ and she got this cute hair-do too!

Happy HOLYdays with Mary Kay on this Beauty Tuesday!

I feel so fortunate to have both my sister and my friend who are Mary Kay 💄beauty💄 💋consultants💋.

My friend gave me this Ultimate Lash Mascara (which must be her own secret to long, volumous, separated eyelashes) and Eye Makeup Remover.

Since my fellow Air Force brat swears by the acne solution, she suggested that I try MK’s, so my friend gave me this 👛trial/travel size👛 pack of Clear Proof products, that have worked spot-on!

Recently, my sister also gave me this MK Mineral Powder with applicator brush that has been perfect coverage for a smooth finish!

As a matter of fact, I featured it in my Fall Faves Tag!

Mary Kay has been known to support wonderful worthy causes, including 🎀Breast Cancer Awareness🎀, plus it gives consultants the opportunity to earn 💸extra income💸 by enhancing the beauty of their clients!
