Double D is for …
D issertation D efenseD r. D ispoBiG D ay : D ecember 8 ~ Save the D ate!
After I passed my presentation with full faculty on Veterans’ Day , I followed my Bestie Evie
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 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:
O•P•I Got the Blues for Red & Sally Hansen 18K Gold Hardener + Revlon Orchid & Silver Screen + Sally Hansen i ♥ Nail Art Striper in black
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
Thank GOD for these special gifts of blessings and wonderful company!

If you’ve ever watched Funny Face Audrey Hepburn Quality magazine’s editor, Ms. Prescott made time to rhyme :
Think pink [especially for Breast Cancer Awareness]
Red is dead
Perfect for the approaching Advent /CHRISTmas season: Pine cones outside my school ‘s gazebo that I picked up after I taught speech today! (Fun fact: Last time I scored some was when I went snowboarding with my cousins at Lake Tahoe while I still lived in the Bay Area!)
Blue is through [including for my *Dallas Cowboys* denim tops]
I beg to differ, Ms. Prescott, because I don’t discriminate against any color … Bring on ALL of the above this season , everyday and always, please!
Bottom line: Fashion rules don’t dictate our lives + we may have pieces in our collection that’ll stay timeless.

As a doc student on a budget, I no longer can invest on high-end cosmetics such as my beloved
M•A•C (Makeup Art Cosmetics) orO•P•I nail lacquers
Yet I don’t mind the beauty products that I find for less at CVS !
Latest Face Craze
I was in search of an eye makeup primer , and Neutrogena has these liquid shadows that already have it built-in with these neutral shades that make for a great *smoky eye* {Neutrogena Crease Proof Eye Shadow in Stay Golden 10 & Lasting Toupe 50 } I already dig on Neutrogena products for their skin-protecting features , including their hypoallergenic eye products & SPFs!
Nail $ale
Of course, I can’t resist markdowns, especially on something I’m seeking anyway! {Milani Color Statement in Mint Crush } Close to Tiffany Blue
I’m all about the gold … These’ll top nails off! {Sally Hansen 8K Gold Hardener }
Good vibes to yours truly as I meet with my dissertation chair (head honcho professor of my committee) today!
