After your initial microblading appointment, once your brows have healed, you will need to return to the salon to have your microblading touch up appointment. This is typically 4-6 weeks after your first microblading session. A touch up appointment is needed for a variety of reasons. It is unknown how your skin will take the pigment, there will be fading, and there could be some unevenness that needs to be corrected. The microblading touch up appointment is done the same way as the first appointment and takes about the same amount of time.
Your microblading artist will look at how well your brows took the pigment, notice where more pigment needs to be, and will draw the [Read more…]
Happy Valentine’s Day to you today! Whether you are part of a duo, celebrating with your child, or just loving on yourself, I hope that you take time to love on someone. I’m not much for the holiday, but a little reminder about love is always nice. Hope you have a fun heart day!
Two words just excited me in a way that made my mind race and lit a fire deep within my heart: Consistency Compounds.
I did something this past weekend while I was out of town that I haven’t done in forever. I looked at myself in the mirror and said, “I am deserving and worthy“. What you don’t know (and what I probably should leave out) is that I was going to the bathroom and the door facing me had a mirror on it. What can I say? I saw an opportunity and went for it. What better time, right?!
While I was out of town in California for Younique’s Black Status Retreat, my Moodstruck Beloved, Volume 2 palette was delivered. Of course it happens like that, right? The second I leave on a plane is when my package arrives.
Younique now has a full coverage stick foundation that is so lightweight and easy to use! I was able to get mine this past weekend and, to be honest, it’s my first time to ever use a stick foundation. I’ve learned that there’s really no wrong way to apply it and I love the ease of that, especially since I’m a newbie. (But for real though!)
Microblading has been around for some time, but it’s only been in the recent years that it’s become super trendy. Eyebrow-envy can be found by scrolling on Instagram and seeing all of the makeup posts with perfectly manicured brows. You know the ones I’m talking about… They leave you in complete awe, wondering why you don’t have the skills to do your brows like that. (Or is that just me?)
Get ready to fall in love with the February Kudos, which has Younique’s newest bundle. These colors are on trend and the pinks and purples will make you feel all kinds of romantic, whether you’re going out on a date with your spouse or hanging out with your girl friends.

You know that feeling you get when the end of December starts creeping in and you decide to change everything to be a better person, a better mom, to lose weight, to eat better, to exercise, etc? Ah yes, the infamous New Years Resolutions. I guess, in theory, it’s a great idea. We should all strive to be better, in all of the areas in our life.
Last night I was flipping through my saved books on my Kindle & decided to start “
dear kristin,
This past Tuesday, while in Calgary, I decided I wanted to finally get that tattoo I’ve been talking about for a few months now. I looked up tattoo shops, read reviews, set my Sidekix app (think of Waze, but for walkers) for the route, and went on my merry way. Once I got to the shop, I was greeted by a girl who told me that they didn’t have any availability that day, but that
