Valentines day...

         Hi Gals and guys!

Today I wanted to talk a little bit about love and Valentines! This month is the time to embrace one another and love each-other. You don't have to have a boyfriend or girlfriend to love but it can even be a family member. Show your thanks to somebody and tell them how much they mean to you even if you're just friends. This month I like to take the time to write a letter to everybody I know and tell them how much they mean to me. This month is my birthday is coming up so I'm super excited about that. Anyway, off the subject about me LOL. I wanted to share this rose petal facial for the gals and a mud mask for the guys for When you're getting ready to go on that special date or just hang out!

Rose Petal Facial for the gals!- The rose petal face mask is soothing to the skin, and the petals have antiseptic properties, destroying bacteria that can cause acne flare-ups. With a handful of roses you can make yourself your own rose petal mask.

Rip the petals from the roses and shred into pieces. Measure out 1/8 cup of petals. Set aside.

Put 1/3 cup of the rolled oats into a food processor. Using the "pulse" feature, grind the oatmeal for a few seconds until it resembles a coarse flour.

1. • Add rose petals to the oatmeal in the food processor. Pulse again for 10 seconds
   • Add two teaspoons of rose water, and then 1/4 cup of honey to the rose petals and oatmeal mixture. Pulse for 10 seconds. If you have a difficult time getting the mixture to blend well in your food processor, you can mix it vigorously by hand, or try it in a blender. Often larger food processors don't work well for small mixing small amounts of ingredients.
   • Apply the rose petal mixture to your face and allow it to stay on for 30 minutes. Rinse off with warm water and gently towel your skin dry.! 
     
     
     
     

Mud Mask for guys- Mud Mask for guys might sound silly. If you are battling dry skin or acne and you wanna look good for your date or friend I recommend doing this! 

You can enjoy all the benefits of a mud facial mask at home anytime. The ingredients are readily and inexpensively available at your local health food store.

Mix French clay and kaolin clay together. If using the powder forms of clay, mix with water until smooth. Green clay can be substituted for French clay.

Add aloe vera gel, rosewater and oil and stir until mixture becomes a thick paste.

Cleanse skin with facial soap and warm water. Pat dry.

Smooth mud mask over face starting with sides of the face and forehead.

Allow mask to dry on face between 10-15 minutes.

Rinse your face with warm water and pat dry.

Refrigerate remaining mask for up to four weeks and apply once a week.

You're Beautiful!!!

   Hey girls!
Welcome back to the BeautyBar! Todays topic is about YOU! YES, YOU! I'm saddened by how many girls are thinking lesser of themselves. Of course we're not perfect and god didn't intend to make us perfect. He made us to be ourselves and I think girls have lost sight in that. I'll share you a story. My life always hasn't been the best and cheery. I've had many weight issues and it's hard to count. I weigh 162 pounds and I used to get upset about it. But I've been doing workout routines and drinking water, I don't even eat meat anymore. I'm hoping it'll pay off. But in the mean time you always have to have a positive attitude in life. If you don't, your'e gonna be miserable forever! You've gotta wakeup every morning with a smile instead of a frown. I'm even starting a positivity jar! A positivity jar is where you write something that you like about yourself or anything happy and put in the jar. It's fun because sometimes it can boost your self esteem and you can even decorate the jar! I love doing DIY projects in my spare time to keep me busy or go out for a run. I love to wakeup and smell the crisp morning air. So wakeup with a smile and turn that frown upside down! Who cares what people think about you, because in 20 years it's not gonna matter!! You'll be grownup and be living your life.  The one thing I notice is that girls let the makeup change them. Makeup is supposed to be used to enhance your beauty and make you feel special but most girls don't even need it. I hardly put any on except for concealer to cover up those nasty blemishes, but other than that I really don't need it, because I know I'm pretty and I'm strong, determined and ready to face whatever life hands me. Your future is what you make it so don't waste your teen or adult life on dumb things like bullies or trying to fit in. It's not worth it. I love to say hello to the sun when I see it! My mom has a saying "Don't worry be happy".... So smile and be thankful.... Love you guys and I want to thank you for following me on his blog and this amazing journey as I grow up and change. Stay tuned for next weeks blog as I'll be talking about some new subjects! <3 xxoox

She inspired me to try new things and has really guided my life into the right direction and attitude. Even though sometimes I can be a pain we love each other and thats what matters! She is my best friend and I don't know what I would do without her... So cherish your parents every day!
