Tip Tuesday #108: An Avoidable Makeup Mistake

February 26, 2019February 1, 2020 LauraJoli LookingJoliGoodLeave a comment

Here’s another tip for Tip Tuesday:

Today’s tip is about A Makeup Mistake When Applying Foundation:

When applied correctly, makeup can give you an instant confidence boost, but when not done right it can also be a quick way to make you feel like wearing it was a big mistake.

Being the base, the foundation of your makeup, it is very important to get it right. The formula and color of foundation you choose can make all the difference.

Here are the previous Foundation Tips we have discussed

1: Properly prepare your skin

2: Choose the correct formula

3: Blend your foundation down past your jawline

4: Set your foundation correctly.

5: Change your foundation formula along with the changing seasons.

6: Apply your foundation before your concealer

Today’s Tip is Blend and blend and blend some more!

Makeup is more than just throwing on some color here or there. It is not just about putting on foundation, concealer, blush, and eyeshadow. Even if you are going for a natural look and you are using neutral shades, it is going to look unnatural if you don’t blend your makeup properly.

The key to natural-looking makeup is blending. Makeup that isn’t blended well can end up looking like a clown mask instead of an enhancement to your beautiful face. Invest in a few good brushes, and practice blending your makeup.

If you make this foundation faux pas, don’t be too hard on yourself, we all make mistakes. 😉

There Is A Time for Resting and A Time for Blooming

February 24, 2019February 23, 2019 LauraJoli LookingJoliGoodLeave a comment

There is nothing in nature that blooms all year long. So don’t expect yourself to do so either.

I’m a bit of a perfectionist. I like to do everything I can the absolute best I can. Sometimes I need a break! Recently I have allowed myself to be in a time of winter. A time to reflect and plan and grow roots instead of flowers. It hasn’t been a fun time for me. I haven’t enjoyed it, I hate winter, I prefer spring and summer, but it’s been a necessary time. Winter will end soon and it’ll be spring again and then the warm days of summer.

The lows of winter are necessary in order to truly enjoy the highs of spring and summer. ❄️🌷☀️🍃

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

1 To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

²A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

³A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

⁴A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

⁵A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

⁶A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

⁷A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

⁸A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.

February 23, 2019January 21, 2019 LauraJoli LookingJoliGoodLeave a comment

Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.
~Thomas Moore

Do you ever wonder if you’ll go to Heaven when you die? Do you ever wonder where you’ll go after this life ends?

I have a message of hope and life! The gospel of Jesus Christ teaches us that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, that He was buried, and that He rose on the third day. And because of His sacrificial work of redemption, all people can be saved!

In order to be saved, you must personally receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

How do I do this?

Realize you are guilty before God, but you can be forgiven!

Romans 3:10 – “There is none righteous, no, not one.”
Romans 3:23 – “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.”
John 3:17 – Jesus came “that the world through Him might be saved.”

Realize there is a punishment for sin, but…Jesus took your place on the cross!

Romans 5:8 – “But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”

Realize you cannot earn your way to Heaven, but…God offers you the free gift of eternal life!

Ephesians 2:8-9 – “For by grace are ye saved…not of works…it is the gift of God.”
Romans 6:23 – “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (See also: Revelation 20:14; 21:8; I John 5:11-13)

Believe that He died for your sins, that He rose from the grave, and that He is the only way for salvation!

John 3:16 – “That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

Receive the gift of eternal life by calling upon Him!

Romans 10:13 – “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

If you want to call upon the Lord for His salvation, pray this prayer to Him in humble sincerity:

“Dear Lord Jesus, I admit to You that I am a guilty sinner. I am undeserving of Heaven and I am unable to save myself. I believe you died on the cross to pay for my sins, and that you rose from the grave. I am completely putting my trust in You to be my personal Savior. Please forgive my sin and help me live a life that is pleasing to You. Amen.”
