Valentine Kisses with Lip BonBons

Happy almost Valentine's Day! Can you believe Valentine's is just around the corner? I feel like I am still stuck in December for some reason except for the fact that my birthday just passed (woot, woot). But have you ever noticed that around the Holiday's people tend to try new lip and eye colors? Well, I wanted to share with you my current obsession which is Younique's Lip Bonbons!

These tinted moisturizers are creamy, smooth and are literally a treatment for your lips. With a mild vanilla fragrance, fruit extracts and five natural oils, all you need is just a touch throughout the day to add a subtle hint of color. Something that I also love about the Lip Bonbons are the fact that each color has been named after a dessert! My current favorite is Raspberry Cheesecake which has a pink tint to it. As you can see I am pretty sad that I am almost out of this color.
Something that I am excited about is the fact that you can grab all five Lip Bonbons at a 20% discount ($79) and cutely packaged until Feb 10th when you click here! Tell me this isn't the cutest packaging for Valentine's Day?

Want to see the Bonbons in action? Why don't you watch my latest live video explaining how you can create a Valentine's look with a few lip items. Let me know what you think in the comments below and if you have any go-to lip looks this holiday!

To The Girls Who Wear Makeup

"You are beautiful without makeup." 

 How many times have you heard another woman say this? Don't get me wrong, I get the intention behind that statement. It's meant to tell you that you can feel confident without wearing makeup. Yes, I can. However, I love wearing it. I love how I didn't realize how much I loved wearing makeup until I discovered and joined Younique. I love the creativity it brings to my day when I get to play with beautiful colors or decide what I am going to do in my next live video. I love how it makes me feel. Like I didn't have those painful years of acne, trying hundreds of products on my face to clear or cover it up the scars, but the products only made things worse. Somehow we've confused wearing makeup with wanting to hide who we are. A woman who wears makeup is NO less confident then the woman who doesn't. It's how she expresses herself, and I would venture to say, you are actually getting to see more of who she really is when she has her face done.
Makeup is NOT a mask.
Makeup is art.
Makeup is passion.

Makeup is expression.
And frankly, let me see you do a cut crease, blend 3 colors flawlessly, do a winged liner and tell me that doesn't take skill.

My Younique Journey

Hey you guys! Wow, do I have loads to catch you up on! One of them being my new journey with the brand Younique. For those that don't know, Younique is a cosmetics company that's literally changing the beauty game. Not only are their products non-toxic, hypoallergenic, cruelty-free and gluten free (click here to see a list), they also provide amazing coverage without breaking me out! Cue the angels singing! LOL!

Bet you can't tell I have on makeup can you?
I started my journey in September 2016. I am half way to my next promotion and have created  my own team of boss babes (AKA The Dreaming Beauty Collective), while earning TONS of free makeup. You guys, this job is too legit to quit and extremely fun. Never in a million years did I think that I would be excited or even dare to do live videos on Facebook applying makeup, yet here I am! Click here to see my first ever live video.

So why did I join? Mainly for the freedom. I have literally watched one of my mentors quit going to school full time, quit her high paying (but stressful) nanny job, hit the top 2% of our company and then start cheerleading for the NFL. Yep, this is the real deal you guys. It can be a fun hobby or an actual business that will pay the bills. I currently work a full time job that I am grateful for but not at all passionate about which can be pretty stressful. I am in this for the long haul so that I can do things that I am passionate about like travel, treat myself and the hubby to shopping, help my mom pay for medical bills,  stay at home with my future kids, or just not have to set the alarm in the morning :D

Another reason I joined is because I want to help other women discover their own inner beauty. Younique is all about uplifting, empowering and validating other women. Society constantly tells us that we need to change how we look and not be satisfied with our features. That societal message only encourages women to see their flaws all day long. I believe every woman has unique and stunning features and my goal is to help them see, what I see.

If you have ever thought about having your own side hustle, full time hustle, or even just want a great deal on makeup, then I have some amazing news for you girl! Take a look at our current makeup kit.
Psst. You know your makeup needs an upgrade girlfriend!
Here is a breakdown of the included items:
12. 3 Applications of our Bamboo Detoxifying Charcoal Mask
13. 2 Tube Samples of our Instant Lifting Serum (3ml)
14. Our Presenters Guide
15. A White Status Charm
16. Liquid Foundation Sample Card

Whew, that is A LOT of items you have there. Not only does this makeup kit come over $280 worth of makeup (which is bananas), it also comes with a cute purple bag and a reusable tablet for $99! Also you will be eligible for discounts ranging from 20-30%, as well as a $25 product credit on your birthday. Oh, and did I mention you can get the kit even if you have no intention of selling the products? Say whaat!
I love how all of these products are paraben free!

One thing I love about being a Younique Presenter is the friendship and community that my Y-sisters offer. Passion and friendship are their greatest strength. Our community of Presenters truly uplift, empower and validate you, as well as, give you the tools to unleash your own potential. I am always on the lookout for makeup lovers, mothers, hustlers and entrepreneurs to join my team which I call The Dreaming Beauty Collective. We are a collective of women pushing each other towards our dreams with our beauty business. Brains, Beauty and Business baby! I can show you how to be the beauty go-to girl for all your friends while having fun and making some extra cash.

I invite you to look at my site here and explore this Younique lifestyle that I am obsessively grateful to live. Click here if you are ready to be a boss babe. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have by clicking here or by visiting my FB page here. Your dream job awaits!
