In The Blink Of An Eye

I tried a new mascara today. I think I may have found "the one". I'm always on the search for the perfect mascara. Even when I find what I consider to be the best, I still hunt and search for something better. Why is that!? Can't I be satisfied? Anyway, I am testing a mascara and will post more about it later once I give it a real go, but I think it just might be the one I've truly been lusting after. Natural looking lashes that still manage to convey enough dramatic flair. NO CLUMPS! This is the most rare thing about mascaras, in my opinion. I never can seem to find one that doesn't clump and this one didn't. At least not today. So, the testing continues and I'll reveal the product once I can give it a complete and honest review.

Beauty is as beauty does

I've found it's really easy to try to be beautiful. You can apply as much makeup as you want. You can get your hair done and get dolled up. But, what it all really boils down to is what's on the inside and what you project towards others that truly makes everything else shine and really stand out. I'm at a crossroads in my life. I had a baby almost a year ago and have recently lost 30 pounds of baby weight. I'm trying to work out more. I'm doing all these things to work on my outward appearance, but I think I need to work on some spiritual soul searching. I want to find a church where we (my husband, son and I) truly feel at home. I want to make some new friends as a lot of mine have gone their own ways. I want to make positive changes in my life on the inside as well as the outside. I've always loved to write and I think this blog will be a good starting point for me to learn a lot about myself and grow as a person.

I also plan to use this blog as a place to share outward beauty finds (i.e. makeup, perfume, etc.) that may be of interest to others. I love to write reviews and hope that some of what I have to say might be beneficial to someone else.

Well, post 1 wasn't so hard. Here's to many more!
