Hair:
Coconut Oil. The amazing things you can do for your hair with coconut oil are proof that God loves you and wants your hair to be fabulous every day. I have two girls and my own head of hair to do and it works on all three of our hair textures.

Makeup:
Ben Nye Banana Powder - I was weary when I learned of this product because it became famous due to the Kardashians and I hate all the Kardashians even their goldfish. BUTTTT, this powder sets perfectly, soaks up my oil and is super cheap for the amount you get.

Skin care:
All About Eyes Rich by Clinique - Dark circles are a genetic unwanted gift just like the penchant for making unwise decisions regarding French fries. But this cream turns my circles to flawless skin and just a dab will do. I don't go for high priced beauty care except for this product.

Nails:
Smith's Rosebud Salve - This mighty product has a million and one uses. My fave way to use it is a cuticle rub to give my dry nails and cuticles some relief.

Fragrance:
Chanel's Mademoiselle - It is timeless magic. It makes this mother of two and overworked employee feel like she is a carefree jet setter. One spritz of this and it doesn't matter how jacked up your eyebrows are or how wrinkled your clothes are...You are fierce because of Chanel.

Beauty Indulgence:

LUSH bath bombs - These little treats come in so many various colors, smells and treatment areas. I feel like I am getting a small piece of art and luxury just for me.
