Beauty Obsession of the Day

"Every day it's something new with you!"   I've been hearing this my whole life and to be honest?  It's true!   Everyday I'm obsessed with a new product or idea or hack that I'm convinced I can't live without!  So everyday I'm going to (try to)  tell you about it!  Quickie posts. Here's today's- Bad Baby Hairspray Pens!   Bad Baby Hair Pens If you're even close to my age you remember a time when hairspray was ginormous, I kept the 24 inch can of shaper in my duffle bag, and wielded it like a sword-   (a normal sized can next to a can of Sebastian Shaper)  Well,...flip the switch chick,   cuz this little can, can fit in your pocket: It's the size of a pen!   I ordered the hairspray and the dry shampoo which i use as a texturizer, and it's ahhhhhhhhhhmazing! The smell is to die for!  I literally keep a little can of this in my change holder in my car just to freshe...

I'd like to thank the Academy.......

Panic at the Disco folks !

Just thought I would let you know why you haven't heard a peep from me, ...  I'll have to make this quick because I don't know how much I'll be able to get out before I'm kicked off.  I am "attempting" to write this blog post from my phone 📱 And unfortunately I'm finding out the hard way why people don't, because it's a bit of a crap game really, at any moment my app will just crash erasing everything I've written! That's happened more times than I'd like to admit. It all started over the holidays when a certain someone who will remain nameless told me I could delete .... actually probably best if I keep this short, I'm surprised it hasn't crashed already.    My computer broke, I didn't see a reason to get a new one because luckily I have a backup laptop.  The other day that one died as well (the black screen of death is just as ominous as it sounds.) Now this comes at a really bad time since it's been impossib...
