Cleaning Your Nail Polish Bottle

When you are working with nail polish you need to be very careful so you don’t spill any polish on pretty much anything. I hope I am not telling you anything you haven’t herd already. Nail polish is the one thing that you don’t want to spill on anything because it is so hard to get out. Even Shaklee Get Clean products might have a hard time cleaning up nail polish and they can get out everything!

So what happens to you nail polish bottle when you get nail polish all over the top? The top gets stuck to the bottle and it is next to imposable to get open. Unless you use this technique that I am about to show you.

Here is a short video showing you just how to open a bottle after it is suck shut as well as a way to keep it from getting stuck again.

Play Make-Up!

I can remember back when I was little and I loved to watch my mom put on make up. I used to dream about the day where I was old enough to be able to wear make up of my own. This is the easiest way to make a little girls dream come true even faster.

Here is a short DIY video on how to make kids play make up!

Here is what you need:

Old make up containers, cleaned and dried.

Old nail polish colors; any colors you like!

Let the nail polish dry over night and if it needs it, maybe 2 nights.

Here is my little sister playing with the make up I gave her. She LOVES it! She is such a girly, girl.

Would you say that you were a girly, girl growing up or more of a tom boy?

From Old to New! DIY Gold Necklace

There is something about jewelry that can help define who you are or where you are going. Think of the difference between the delicacy of a single strand of pearls compared to brighter and bulkier beads. If you were going to a black tie affair you most likely would be wearing the pearls than the beads. That strand of pearls is every elegant and beautiful, it is to be worn by a stunning lady going to a meaningful event.

The necklace I am wearing here really brings out a lot of my personality. Start with the simplicity of the chain and how it works its way down to a big knot, LOL. Inside that knot holds the key to my heart as well as my love towards my family. It also shows not only my commitment to life bound by a ring but my love for life found in a dangling earing.

This had to have been one of the most fun necklaces I have made in a long time. The first thing I did was find old gold pieces from my grandmother, Goodwill or pieces of jewelry laying around the house. The first thing you will need to do is tie the ring to the end of the chain. Then tie a knot near the end of the chain. Add any extra items.Last but not lease secure everything with a big statement brooch.I just love the way it all came together.

I am sure there are times where we all go through different phases within our life where we like to change up our jewelry. Don’t believe me? Just check out my necklace collection.
If there is one thing you love right to wear right now what would it be and why?

How To: Organize Your Bobby Pins

I get a lot of questions about how I organize all of my beauty supplies. Over the past 5 years of doing hair and working at a number of salons I have seen things organized and displayed in every way imaginable. What I have done is taken all of those ideas and found the best and most efficient way to store and organize all of these products. Today I wanted to share with you one of the ways I like to store my bobby pins.

The first thing I did was saved all of my old Tic Tac containers.Then I remove the sticker. If it doesn’t come off, spray with Basic H2 degreaser and it will come right off.Last but not least, I separated my bobby pins by color and filled the containers.

One of my favorite thing about the Tic Tac container is that you can easily throw it into your purse without a big mess! It is simple and easy! Like I said before, there are so many different ways to store your bobby pins. This is just one way that has been working for me.
I am always looking for new ideas and I just have to ask, how do you store your bobby pins?
