I am a licensed Cosmetologist and I have spent the last 7 years teaching my clients some of the most popular and helpful beauty tips of my trade. I have a passion for wanting to help people be happier, feel healthier and look younger. On top of all of that I have also been a health and nutrition specialist for over 4 year and I now have the privileged of working entirely from home.
I love having different holiday’s spread throughout the entire year. It gives us a reason to try new things and to think outside the box. St. Patrick’s Day is a great way to be a little bold and have fun while incorporating green into your entire day!
I wanted to show you my top 6 must haves for St. Patrick’s Day that you are going to love.
I can’t tell you how many times in my life I have always gone back to some sort of side bang. I try to grow them and I always seem to cut them again.
Bangs and side bangs are awesome for so many reasons; I love how they can frame out a face and can change up a style without being too dramatic. They look good styled up and down. You can also style them with curly hair or strait hair.
One of my favorite ways to style my bangs is in this pin back poof. It is the easiest way to style your bangs and anyone can achieve this poof with only one bobby pin… Yes you read that right, only one bobby pin!
Here is a 2 minute tutorial showing you just how I achieve this style! (For all of my E-mail subscribers, Click Here to watch the video)
Start with any hair style where you want to pin back your bangs.
Grab a section of hair from the middle of one of your eyebrows to the middle of your other.
Pull the hair off to the side and twist it away from the face. (You can even pull it straight back and achieve the same type of look.)
With the open end of the bobby pin (facing the back of your head), grab a piece of hair and twist the bobby pin around so that the open end is facing the front of the head.
With the opened end of the bobby pin facing the front of the head, insert it into the poof.
There you have it!
This is seriously a super easy way to pin back your side bangs or bangs and it looks great every time!
It is really that easy. Never underestimate the power of a professional bobby pin! This is only one of the many ways you can style your bangs.
Is there a particular way you like to style your bangs?

I have to admit that I am new to juicing! It wasn’t until after I got married and got a juicer for my wedding shower that I started. I love the idea having fresh fruit and veggie juice every morning. I have been playing around with different combinations and this is one that I love!
I love this particular recipe not only because it taste delicious but also because it is green. And green is perfect for St. Patrick’s Day, which is just around the corner.
You are going to need:
1 Apple
1 Lime
1 Small head of roman lettuce
1/2 Bunch of Spinach
1/2 Cucumber
Start by having all of your fruits and veggies washed (I wash mine with Basic H) and cut. It is easiest if you have everything set up and ready to go before you begin.
Here comes the easy part. All you have to do is put all of the ingredients in one at a time.
Then the juice starts coming right out!
Anything left over will be separated from the juice. Spinach, celery and anything else that is stringy will come out like this.
Once you are done, pour and drink.
I personally like to either chill it or add a few ice cubs to keep it nice and cold.
So there you have it. This is a perfect combination on sweet, sour, bitter and fresh.
If you are not a juicer yet, this drink just might convince you to start. I know that you are going to love it and it is a perfect drink to start of with on St. Patrick’s Day morning!
Let me know what you think of this combo. I would love some feed back from some more experienced juicers.
Have you ever lost weight? Have you ever achieved the after size that you set out to reach? Maybe you even took some before and after pictures, hoping you would fit into your skinny clothes again. What happens after you reach your goal? Losing weight can be an amazing feeling, unfortunately most people do what is called the “Yo-Yo” diets. They lose weight, and than gain it back again.
Shaklee 180 focuses not only on your before and after but what I like to call your after-after! It doesn’t just forget about you after you reach your after, it makes sure you never get back to your before. I like to call it my “Happily every after-after”. For those of you who don’t know My Story, I lost 40 lbs using the entire Shaklee 180 Weight Management Program. I lost most of my weight 3 years ago and have been taught specific tools that have helped me learn how to keep it off ever since.
Shaklee re-launched Shaklee 180 back in January and Brandon (my fiancé)and I teamed up got a group of people together to create a community of dedicated and motivated people who where all on track to loosing weight, getting fit and keeping it off.
Brandon and I joined the Healthy Competition to get in shape for our September wedding. I came up with a goal that I wanted to be ‘Tiny, Tone and Tan” before the wedding and I was going to do anything to help me get there. The Healthy Competition was just what I was looking for.
I will go into more details later, so for now I am just going to show you a brief glimpse of what you get as a Healthy Competition Winner! First off, Shaklee paid the way to Nashville (for Shaklee Live) for 2 people as well as 4 nights stay at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel. Check out this video that I put together about what to expect as a Healthy Competition Winner.
To start the trip off, I was greeted with this amazing gift basket full of my favorite Shaklee 180 goodies.
I was then fitted for my photo shoot, where I got to keep all of my clothes and shoes!! Booya!
I had a personal stylist for the day and let me say… As a professional cosmetologist I loved being the client for the day. Plus I learned a lot about applying make up and styling hair for professional photo shoots, which I totally enjoyed!
These were all 3 of my stylists for the day!
They made me look and feel beautiful for the entire day!
I had a chance to hang out and talk with the other Healthy Competition Winners.
They truly did not miss a single detail from my head to my toe.
Here is a sample of one of the pictures they took at the photo shoot. Shaklee is going to be using some of my pictures for 2014 marketing materials. 🙂 I am she so excited to see what Shaklee decides to use and for what materials.
On top of all of that, we had a interview on stage at general session in front of 6,000 people…
…then we were then featured on Shaklee Live Chat!!!
And last but not least, we had an opportunity to talk with the Owner and CEO of Shaklee (Roger Barnett).
Need-less-to-say this has been a once in a lifetime experience. Everyone in Shaklee has been so encouraging and they truly help you embrace the new you.
Unlike most programs, this one is guaranteed to work!
