Nail Of the Week: Hazel by Petites

I wanted to share the nail color of this week. I was shopping at Walmart and I found this cool multi-toned polish for a mere $1.34. I am huge fan of Petites nail polish and think this is a great color for fall/winter.

what do you think?

My Nail Polish Storage

So I have finally had time to go and actually film a nail polish storage video.
Here are some pictures so you can get a closer look, by any means I am not trying to brag at all I own a fairly decent size collection of nail polishes and I love my drugstore polishes as much as my higher end ones. Hope this is helpful

This stand is made by TECHPOINT but I am not sure where my mother bought it from but if you google it, you just might find it

Here is a view of my individual shelves




Sadly I am outgrowing this storing system but I am hoping I can arrange some things around and be able to use this for years to come as I expand my nail polish addiction that seems to grow every 4 months *Shake head*

Chapstick Smooth

Lately I have been obsessing over these ChapStick Ultra Smooth Fortify Lip Balm. I have been collecting theme for a few months because the stores around me don't normally have them in stock. I absolutely love the formulation and that they come in a jar with so many beautiful colors. The packaging is simple but elegant. These lip balms contain Antioxidants coenzyme Q10 & vitamin E and Cranberry seed oil.

ChapStick UltraSmooth has a creamy formulation that:

Makes your lips look smooth, supple and radiantly healthy.
Contains silky emollients which nourish your lips with moisturizers.
Conditions for soft, smooth lips.
So you get healthy looking and feeling lips every time you put it on.

My story with Eczema

Hello Lovely people,
This post might be a little bit longer than usual but I wanted to talk about my Eczema and how it has changed my life I like to think for the better (but sometimes for the worst). I was diagnosed with eczema in late June well I didn't officially knew until a bad out break in late July. My doctor had a hunch but waited until it came back fully loaded and told me.
The things that cause eczema to flare up (for me):
-Stress and more stress
-Not getting enough sleep
-Sometimes the make up I wear

I have eczema on my eye lids my bottom lids and my left cheek. When it get really bad my eczema causes for my eyelids to swell up and look bright red. My bottom check looks red and really dry. My friends say I look like someone punched me on both eyes and left cheek except without the black and blue discoloration.

The very first thing my dermatologist recommend me to use was a topical ointment called Protopic (tacrolimus ointment) 0.1% you can only get this via a prescription and it is very pricey if your insurance doesn't cover it. I had to pay $125 for it.

The second thing they recommended was a good moisturizer. I use Eucerin Calming Creme especially for eczema. They also recommended CeraVe Cream or Lotion.

I have come to the understanding this is going to be with me forever and I am slowly learning to embrace it only someday it is harder to than others. I have so much going on that it is crazy to stop and relax.

Some of the things I do to relax:
-Excersice 25-30 min a day
-listen to music
-Take 20 min to myself and do whatever I want

If you think you may have eczema or any other skin condition I recommend you go to your doctor or dermatologist and get checked out Eczema is no joking matter it can become infected if you scratch too much and can become more serious if left untreated.

Hope this helps
