Check out my  original intro post  for more info on each product. So basically I am ending this challenge on a serious low; our little family has been experiencing so much death its been  ridiculous and then to top it all off I got really sick with Bronchitis.

Finish 7 By Spring: Update #2.

Image
Check out my  original intro post  for more info on each product. I know I'm super late with this update but my father was in the hospital for 9 days and then passed away so I've just kinda been hanging on to what little sanity I have left. These types of things can wait in the grand scheme of things, you know?!?  On to the update... -  Freeman Feeling Beautiful Body Salt Scrub  with Guava and Vitamin C: I still haven't used this much but I will continue trying to use it. It smells amazing but its not my favorite type of scrub with the salt particles being so large. Weigh ins as follows:  8.6 fl.oz. on 1/6/15 8.2 fl.oz. on 1/20/15 7.1 fl.oz. on 3/7/15 -  Freeman Bare Foot Lemon + Sage Foot Balm : Done! Basically, the packaging is what weighs 1 fluid ounce. I honestly have fallen in love with this product; my feet get really tired and this helps perk them right up. It seems to help with circulation which...

Finish 7 By Spring: Update #1.

Image
Check out my original intro post for more info on each product. -  Freeman Feeling Beautiful Body Salt Scrub  with Guava and Vitamin C: I haven't used this as much as I had hoped I would but now that I've come to that realization I can change that. I got my scale on the 6th, weigh ins as follows:  8.6 fl.oz. on 1/6/15,  8.2 fl.oz. on 1/20/15 . Not a lot of progress but at least it's something. -  Freeman Bare Foot Lemon + Sage Foot Balm : I've gotten to the point where I can now appreciate the unique texture and it is definitely keeping the winter dryness away. Weigh ins as follows:  5.6 fl.oz. on 1/6/15,  3.8 fl.oz. on 1/20/15 . Definite progress! In case you are wondering about my scale I chose an inexpensive one from Amazon but I love how sleek and modern it looks and so far it is working out great. -  LUSH Carrot Soap : Done! It only lasted a week and a half. It's definitely a fun product and great for a luxury item; would I purchase LUSH so...

Update: Tax Season 2015 and Project Pan!

Image
Hey Gang! I hope your holidays were lovely. It's about time for me to start Tax Season 2015 so (as you might already know) I won't be posting all that regularly through April 15th. If you don't know, I work for H&R Block as a tax preparer and I get really slammed and work lots of overtime to meet the needs of my clients.  Tax Season requires me to make some adjustments one of which being switching to gel nails; they hold up much longer and help to prevent breaks. I use CND's Shellac and will post photos of my Shellac manicures during tax season; just remember it won't be all that frequent. I also recently stumbled upon Project Pan and thought this would be a great way to streamline my makeup routine as well as purge a few items from my stash. I first found out about Project Pan from Anya Marie  on YouTube when she was doing the Finish 6 by Christmas Challenge. What is it: Project Pan 101  (Watch this video for a great intro from Amber F) I will be participating ...
