Henna, just because.

Today I stopped by this shop in the mall near my house and got a henna tattoo!

I have wanted to get one for quite some time and today was the day!

I think it looks so pretty! My apologies, the pictures aren't the greatest!

Well, traditionally henna is worn on the hands on brides and mothers to be. I am neither. I just love how it looks and I know that it will inspire me to be artistic! I am going to experiment with some india-ink and my airbrush! I think I will start small.

The henna starts out as a dark brown paste. As soon as it was dry to the slight touch, Brandy put a lemon juice and sugar paste mixture on top to help the color develop and stain. I left it on for about four hours before rinsing it off with cool water. No scubbing, just used my finger tips.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

There is a goal behind these brown eyes...

I hope one day to inspire people and more specifically women.

As I push myself to grow and use all of my potential, I am eager

to turn right around and encourage the woman next to me to strive for the same.

So much of my industry can be clouded with vanity.

I seek to build a culture within a culture of motivation, and inspiration.

This is where I plan to write out the goal, and the steps I am taking to accomplish, becoming a MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER.

And as I evolve, you will be my witness!

And I smile to think, you will also be encouraged!

Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure

Many women I know love to have their nails freshly polished. This

is one beauty addition that can easily be done at home for some and others won't dare attempt an ambidextrous art project.

With many years of polishing my own nails, I have tried every polish there is and aside from color, and avant garde names-most top polish makers are essentially the same.

I have always liked Sally Hansen products and somewhat kept it to myself. These two lines of polish deserve to be in a spotlight. Not because of color or names-frankly I can care less about the name of a polish. Color range is important, wearability is essential and until I came upon the newly designed brush-I was smitten! From a professional perspective, I don't know how every polish line isn't doing some version of this brush. For personal use, we are all better off not being snobbish and getting our favorite color in any of these two Sally Hansen lines.

The design of this brush allows for even application and contours to the shape of the nail. The next time you are looking to add a little fashion to your fingers, run to your nearby CVS or Walgreens and check out this polish! You'll be happy you did.
