Tip Tuesday #80

September 5, 2017August 2, 2017 LauraJoli LookingJoliGood2 Comments

Here’s another tip for Tip Tuesday:

Today’s tip is about how to get the most out of your mascara and make your lashes look fuller.

1. Prevent clumps by wiping off excess mascara! You want to be able to control the amount of product that you apply. Start off with less and add more.

2. Slowly wiggle the mascara wand along the base of your lashes before moving to the ends. (You may remember this tip from a few weeks ago.)

3. After the first coat, wait about 30 seconds or so, then apply loose powder to the lashes with an eyeshadow brush. (Be careful not to get any into your eyes.)

4. Finish with a second coat of mascara add volume to your lashes.

Here’s another tip for Tip Tuesday:

Today’s tip is about how to make your brushes last longer:

1. Keep it clean! Wash your brushes well at least once a week.

2. Just like your hair, your brushes need a little extra love, too! After you wash your brushes, condition the bristles with a few drops of olive or coconut oil.

3. Place your brushes upside down to dry. This will keep them fluffy. (Click HERE for a whole post I wrote about drying your brushes)

4. Store your brushes vertically to prevent the bristles from getting harmed.

Today’s tip is about how to add an extra boost of glow to your skin.

For an extra boost of hydration to your skin making it more glowy, to your moisturizer add two drops of your favorite facial oil, my favorite is the Tarte Maracuja Oil, $48 for 1.7 oz.

This week’s tip will help you to hide any discoloration on your eyelids while also making your shadows stay in place all day

Prime your lids with a small amount of concealer and set it with a finely milled setting powder before applying your eyeshadow. It will hide any discoloration on your lids, while also making your shadows look more opaque. Added bonus, it will also keep your shadows in place all day.

Here’s another tip for Tip Tuesday:

This week’s tip is about applying concealer to the under eye area.

The skin around the eye is super delicate! Your ring finger has the softest touch, so always use your ring finger to blend concealer beneath your eyes. Follow this tip when applying eye cream to this area as well.

Ditch The Diet for Healthy Habits

Ponder The Path by Francie Taylor

August 4, 2017August 4, 2017 LauraJoli LookingJoliGood2 Comments

~Ditch The Diet~

My Mom, sisters and I have been reading through this book Ponder The Path by Francie Taylor. It’s been great so far and I definitely recommend it if you are looking for a daily devotional.

I wanted to share one of the devotionals with you that I have found to be convicting yet also applicable to this series of “Ditch The Diet”.

Happy is a man that findeth wisdom and the man that getteth understanding Proverbs 3:13

We’ve been tricked!

Women today are being duped into believing that their physical appearance is the key to happiness. Add in the myth of “anti-aging” and we’re caught in a trap, and we’re passing the Baton of insecurity to young women running the next leg of the race. Now they are also striving to have the image that supposedly makes life complete.

But does it?

I met an 80 something-year-old former beauty queen and tap dancer. “I was really famous in my day,” she told me with great pride. It was almost as if she felt the need to validate her presence by describing her past. Did you know that there are a lot of former beauties in nursing homes?

God doesn’t value the currency of good looks. In fact, it must make him shake his Heavenly head as he watches all these organized piles of dust wearing “powder and paint to make a woman what she ain’t.” Sigh.

Happiness doesn’t come from having flawless skin, stylish hair, and a size 2 figure wrapped up in fashionable clothing. All those things are temporary. You will wake up one day at 80, when it will seem to you that it was just yesterday that you were 20, like the former beauty queen, if God grants you that many days.

Happiness is a benefit of wisdom. When we find wisdom from God’s word, we are able to see life through clear lenses, understanding and comprehending that there are far more important issues in this life than whether or not people are impressed with our appearance. Cutting a fine figure is no substitute for being a wonderful human being.

To be happy is to be blessed. Find wisdom. Get understanding. It’s far more valuable than being able to wear a size 2 at age 82.

Happy is a man that findeth wisdom and the man that getteth understanding Proverbs 3:13
Read Proverbs 3.

Beauty Subscription

Walmart Beauty Boxes Summer 2017

August 3, 2017August 2, 2017 LauraJoli LookingJoliGood1 Comment

Did you know that Walmart has it’s own a subscription beauty box? Yup, they do! It is a quarterly box and only costs $5 a season.

Walmart technically calls it a “sample box” and says that the box itself is free and the $5 is a flat rate for shipping and handling. Either way, the box costs $5 each season.

In your Walmart Beauty Box, you can expect to find around 7-9 samples. Sometimes there are even a few full sized makeup samples.

How does it work?

You sign up at https://beautybox.walmart.com/
Create and account
Add your payment and shipping info
Wait for you confirmation email
Enjoy your beauty box when it arrives

The Walmart beauty box website says

“Each subscriber will be charged upon receiving an order confirmation (locking in your box for the season).
If you do not receive an order confirmation, please check your account information to make sure the payment and shipping information in your account is up to date (as well as check your junk mail). Following the order confirmation email is a shipping confirmation, once you receive the shipping confirmation email you can expect a delivery within 5-10 business days. Each seasonal Beauty Box is a limited edition and may sell out at any time. Note: Beauty products may vary by box.”

There are two different types of boxes available, the classic and the trendsetter. Up until recently, only one box could be sent per email address, but that has been changed. I now receive both boxes.

Here is what I got in this season’s box:

Classic Box

7 sample sized products

Seriously though, once again this deodorant! How many times are they going to send me the same exact Dove advanced care deodorant?! I think that I have gotten 9 so far! I don’t use this type of deodorant, so I have 9 mini tubes just sitting around that I really need to drop off at the woman’s shelter in my area.

Trendsetter Box

2 full size products and 4 sample products and 1 trial sized product

Here is what I received in my Spring 2017 Trendsetter Box

Here is what I received in my Spring 2017 Classic Box

Instead of the usual Classic Box, Walmart Beauty contacted me and asked if I would be interested in receiving a special “Me Moment” box. Here is what I got:

I’m sure you will be seeing some of these items in an upcoming How ’bout Them Samples Post. 🙂
