Fabulous Finds

I cant believe that I stopped doing fabulous finds
This is something that a lot of people loved and honestly I loved doing it.So with that in mind I am back to telling you about all the fabulous things I love.Since its been A while I am going to do A list of things that I am in love with right now and are fabulous!! Enjoy

OLD NAVY NAIL POLISH
I recently had A gift card for Old Navy and picked up some of their nail polish.
I work with my hands a lot so usually when I paint my nails it only last A day and its already chipping off.
I have had on the Old Navy nail polish in paisley pink for over A week now and not A chip in sight...This makes me smile, I hate painting my nails.Not all stores carry it but if they do it will be up by the cash registers.
(This is not the color I picked but the only pic I could find)

GOODYS SPIN PINS
I am A on the go kinda girl who doesn't like to spend forever to get ready and these are just that quick and easy.I have to admit though when you first get them it takes A good 5-6 times to figure out how they work in your hair and where to put them in at.Once you get it down they are so quick and easy. They give your hair that messy kinda tousled look that seems to be in style right now.All you do is pull your hair back or to the side how ever you want it and then spin the pins in like a cork screw and the hold for ever. You tube helped me on how to use them... If in doubt you tube it...You can get them at Wally world,Target or any of your local drug stores.
OLIVE JUICE
My friend Jade has done something AWESOME
I am A sucker for anything cute and shiny,Unfortunately my check book and hubby is not such A fan.
So I was SO excited when A friend of mine started selling tons of the cutest bling,purses,shades and tons of other super cute stuff for super cheap.Unlike others she doesn't have to pay this crazy amount for her overhead so she can sell to us for great prices. She is on face book and if you love anything cute and shiny like me head on over to her face book and check it out.... She has TONS of stuff!!! You can also host parties with her and score lots of goodness for FREE!!! That's right FREE who doesn't love that. Be sure to tell her I sent ya!!
POWER BALANCE BRACELET
OK so not only do I love what these do for me but they are kinda cute too.The power balance bracelet is hot right now, people like Khole Khardasian and her husband Lamar Odom swear by them. Not only do they wear them but Tim Tebow,Robert Deniro and lots of other celebs.The power balance bracelet helps with your balance,flexibility and core strength.How does it work you ask? Power Balance is based on the idea of optimizing the body’s natural energy flow, similar to concepts behind many Eastern philosophies. The hologram in Power Balance is designed to resonate with and respond to the natural energy field of the body. Nick and I have been wearing ours for about two weeks now and just love them,It also helps me sleep better I have not taken A sleep aid for about A week now and sleep great. A lot of people think that it is A mind over matter thing and that its all in your head, But hey if it makes me think I'm stronger,more flexible and all that... I'm cool with that. To watch the demonstration video check out this previous blog . Oh yeah and if you want one of these let me know we are selling them....They retail for 30 bucks in the mall and we are selling them for 10 bucks or 3 for 25.... What A great deal right?

ZUMBA


Last night I got on the scale and I was SO mad at myself. These past two weeks I have well kinda cheated on my healthy eating/workout. I am now back on track and DETERMINED, It feels so good to watch the pounds melt away not pack on again. This morning I got up really early because I thought I had to be to work at 10:30. I knew when I got off of work I would not feel like working out. Brittney and I got up there at 9:00 and worked out some, Then we realized there was A zumba class. To be honest I was honestly intimidated by this class because its pretty intense. Brittney convinced me to do it and I am SO glad she did,It is SO much fun. I workout at Anytime Fitness so if you are A member I suggest you try it. Zumba is A dance class, I thought it was mostly Latin dancing but there was a lot of good music on. Oh and on the way to the gym I realized I didn't have to be to work until 4:30, I love when I misread my schedule...Anyways Have A fabulous day

Is it Friday yet???

Hey yall,How was every ones weekend? The weather was beautiful,Finally A little bit of warm.
Nick and I went out to lunch on Friday with our great friends Brad and Brittney and there new baby Chase.Brittney and I LOVE Mexican food so there is A great little Mexican place in Macclenny that we ate at.They had baby Chase with them and I was trying to find every excuse to wake him up. I just love holding the little guy he is so darn handsome.It was so pretty out on Saturday, So Nick and I decided to go to the Flea Market. This is my FAVORITE place to find junk to "REDO",Nick thinks I am crazy when I get excited about something old and rusty.
While we were there I stumbled upon A cute booth selling MAC makeup,If you know me you know I LOVE makeup. I spend way too much money on beauty products and all kinds of makeup.So when I found this Boothe at the flea market I was well...Just A little bit happy. I just recently paid 20 bucks for A pigment from Mac. I was even more surprised to find out that this lady was selling the same pigments for only 6 bucks or 2 for 10.She also has the Mac liquid eyeliner,The Hello Kitty eye shadow pallets and the 24 mac brush set in A the Mac leather case for only 40 bucks. Needless to say I will be A frequent customer.Ladies go check out her booth,She is at the Ramona Flea market right next to the Snack Bar.
This weekend Nick and I also got A call that we have been kind of dreading but also looking forward too. Since Nicks hospital stay in October and his lung function dropping we have constantly been thinking about where we stand as far as his lung transplant goes. At Nicks last Dr. appointment his lung function was low again and quickly reminded his nurse about submitting the transplant application. So this weekend we got the call that UF and Shanda got Nicks transplant application and will be evaluating it and contacting us soon. So from here Nick and the family will start the 3-4 month evaluation process for his double lung transplant. Once we get through the evaluation the team will decided weather or not Nick is A good candidate. Some of the things they consider when they look at are Nicks will to live,His support system,and of course his health. If he is A good candidate Nick will then decided if he wants to Active or Inactive on the transplant list.If Nick decides to be active it can be anywhere from two weeks to who knows when before they get lungs for Nick. I don't think Nick is ready to be active, he is working hard to get his numbers up and is determined to prolong the transplant as long as he can. It is such A bitter sweet thing for us,So please keep Nick and I in your prayers while we go through this crazy process.
I hope everyone has A GREAT week and remember it is what you make it...SMILE

Hallmark Freebie

Nick and I headed to Orange Park tonight to do A little shopping. I LOVE some of the stuff the Hallmark store carries, Especially the hoops and yo yo goodies. While we were in there I over heard the lady telling another customer about getting A FREE card. Everyone loves A freebie,So I asked the young lady who worked there and she showed me to the FREE cards. I thought you had to purchase something and you get your card...NOPE. It is something they are doing to promote the new line of cards. I am not sure if all of the hallmark stores are participating, So just drop in to your local hallmark and see about getting your FREE card. Have A great Friday!!!!

Fabulous Finds


I have not done A fabulous find in quite A while.Then the other day I was getting ready to go out and noticed how much body my hair had. I have been using the sun silk anti flat shampoo,It is in the yellow bottle and I get it at Walmart for pretty cheap. It is A shampoo that adds TONS of volume to your hair and I know it doesn't say its suppose to but I think it thickens my hair too. I have always heard that you are suppose to switch up your shampoo every month because your hair gets use to the shampoo or whatever. Recently I saw in glamour magazine that it is A myth and that you should find A shampoo that you love and that loves your hair and stick with it. So try this out and hopefully you will have the same great results that I have had. ENJOY!!!!

Fabulous Finds

I am so completely guilty, I am addicted to makeup!!!! Knowing this my smart husband purchased A gift card to Sephora for me as A Christmas present.You better believe I couldn't wait to get in there and find some new makeup. I have been on the search for A good foundation lately. It seems that every time I buy foundation it just never gives me the coverage I want and never seems to stay on through out my crazy day. When I went to Sephora I told the consultant about my dilemma. She being the wonderful sales lady that she was,showed be this new product. I INSTANTLY fell in love, I'm such A sucker. It was A primer called primed and pore less by Too Faced. You can find it here http://www.sephora.com/ ,Just search primed and pore less. It is a little pricey but you get what you pay for. I am going to check out Rimmel primer which you can get at Walmart or Target and see if its sizes up for waaayyy cheaper and I will let ya know.Anyways, you put it on before your foundation and it hides all your pores and in perfections. I actually put on the primer and then A loose powder bronzer and didn't really need the foundation that I splurged on while at Sephora. After all that is what I went there for was A good foundation right? So I purchased Sephora brand of foundation in D 30 and love it. It is really light and goes along way I don't need a lot. If you like makeup and have issues with your pores or your makeup not lasting throughout the day I HIGHLY suggest purchasing A primer. I LOOVE It. Hope everyone is having A great week and enjoys my fabulous finds... XOXO Always Amanda

Fabulous Finds

If you know me you know that I LOVE makeup!!!! One thing that I am absolutely obsessed with is my eye makeup. I am forever on the search for A mascara that works best for me. I think I am in love. I came across this mascara on another blog which is great you should check it out ....http://www.primpandtell.com/ Anyways it is Mabelline's Colossal volume mascara. I absolutely love it!!! Usually I end up using 2-3 different mascara's to get the look I want. With this it seems to do it all for me. Its lengthens your eye lashes and has collagen in it,and gives you the EXTREME volume that everyone loves. I always have people asking me if my eye lashes are real which makes me smile. You can get it at walmart but I get it at CVS with my rewards card and A coupon. It's about 4.98 but I usually pay 3 something for it with the discounts. Anyways,Check it out and let me know if you have any Fabulous finds you would like to share..... XOXO Always Amanda
