Our Christmas Picture

My belly is huge eh? Well – in this picture it is. It’s actually not that big yet. But I’ve been carrying an extra 30 pounds around – my spine is sort of killing me at times. I can’t walk for too long anymore. At first – I wasn’t used to the extra 30 pounds but when time flew by – I kind of gotten used to it. The good thing about it is – I get to go for relaxing massages and these massages helps me a lot. Good thing I don’t need any spine surgery in the future – I’ve heard of women getting Spine Surgery Dallas because of the weight. Massage for pregnant women is really helpful – that’s what I heard. Talking about it – I gotta book another appointment for tomorrow. My body is getting aches.

Daily Facials & Massages

That’s another thing that keeps me busy! I feel like massages is a must being pregnant because of back pains and the extra weight that I have to carry on me. Overall – it relaxes my body and helps me move my body. My foot and arms are all swollen now – can you believe it? I know it would be swollen but not this early right? I feel that my body part is tenser these days. I hope it goes back to normal after I give birth.

As for facial – it’s very important to maintain healthy skin. Winter is a bad season – makes my skin really dry. But ever since I started using sheet masks at home – I see the difference. I feel more dehydrated and less dry. Those I use 3 times a month and along with that going out for facial once a month. It scares me to think about wrinkles and I know I shouldn’t think about it at this age but it’s always good to look out earlier rather than later right? I just think if I maintain it better now – when I become 30 or 40 I won’t be having a lot of wrinkles. Let see if that works eh? Botox is definitely on top of my list when I become wrinkly! Which men don’t want to come home to a beautiful wife right?

False Eyelashes

A year ago – I would probably use a pair of false eyelashes once a month, but now it seems to be an habit of using it every time I go out. I just feel like without false lashes – my eyes just feels so naked at times. Can’t help it – I’m just getting so use to having it on. I’m looking into the best eyelash growth product so I don’t need to spend too much time on false eyelashes. I’ve heard of eyelash extensions – but darn they are expensive. Eyelash extensions don’t stay – they fall out. So once in a while – you would need to go back to the salon to redo them. Any good recommendations from you ladies out there?

Insurance Benefits

Wholesale insurance can be quite expensive nowadays but good thing I have insurance benefits under my hubby. It feels good not paying full price for services now. Such as, dental, optical, massages and etc. No more paying full and expensive prices for these things. I remember last time I went to the dentist – it cost me about $350 for a cavity and cleaning. Is that crazy or what? Now I can put the extra money in pampering myself with facial and nails. Women are high maintenance eh? It’s just part of being a women. hahaha. I can’t wait for my next massage!

I love massages!

This evening I went for an one hour massage! Let me tell you – it was heaven. I really needed the massage because my entire body was aching and some says its due to pregnancy but I really don’t know what the reason was. I’m glad my hubby’s job is 100% covered with massage therapy – now I can just go for a massage whenever I want. It’s just part of pampering myself and it’s too bad my hubby doesn’t enjoy it as much as I do. He doesn’t like being touched by strangers.

Cosmetology School

I’ve been talking about Cosmetology school a lot the past couple of months. As you all know, Minnesota has one of the best cosmetology school and a lot of different campus. If I knew about this a couple years ago – I think I would of travel there to take my education. I’ve started using cosmetics since high school and was never good at it. There’s just a lot to learn.

Nowadays – if anyone ask me – I would recommend them to go to the Minnesota school. They have a really good reputation and with the campuses they are expanding – you can choose to go anywhere you like. Are you into cosmetology? It’s fun and it’s a type of art!

Brides Wedding Shoe

This is the little something I picked out for the wedding dress & night gown. I have shoes for them already but I decided to get a pair of new ones. In the beginning – I was so worried that it would be a hassle walking on these. But I won’t be walking much – so it would be alright. Don’t these look elegant and classy? I just hope it’s comfortable. This color matches with the bridesmaid shoes too.

Smokey Eye Makeup

Please excuse the eyebrow – I’m waiting another week to get my eyebrows waxed.

I’ve been loving smokey eyes a lot lately – well – these couple of months. I find that Motives eye shadow very pigmented comparing to Costal Scent and Elf’s eye shadows. To give it a finishing touch – don’t forget to use false lashes. In my theory – smokey eyes without false lashes is a no-no. Black & silver is my favorite color to do smokey eyes. What about you?

Prepping my nails for the party!

Prepping my nails for the Bachelorette dinner. The gold I have on is very sparkly and shiny, but the cons about this is that the polish takes years to dry. Kind of frustrating when you have no patient. But the gold would match with the theme I’m planning to have. ^__^

Treat yourself right!

Do you pamper yourself? Because I do – it’s a daily activity that I pamper myself after a long long week. I don’t only do facial – I also get my face steamed every other day or whenever I have free time at home. If you don’t know how to pamper yourself – you really gotta learn how to! What’s wrong with pampering yourself right? It feels great and it’s good for your skin. I’m so excited that I’ll be covered by insurance in a couple of months – so I can get my daily massage!
