I went to go visit Melody, Natalie and Ash Yesterday, its been way too long since I have got to see these girls. I miss them so much, they inspire me to do so much more in my life and I cant imagine not having them around. Melody had these ready for me like 3 months ago and I have not picked them up til now, I know, I am crazy because they are soooooo cute. Thank You so much for these amazing pieces, Azelle and I love them!

Trey Songz Mom
Trey Songz mom, April Tucker called me and asked me to do her makeup for this years 2010 BET awards. She is so sweet, not to mention she looks like she is my age. I first met April the day of the Grammy’s, I asked her where Trey’s mom was at because I would have never thought she was Trey’s mom, kinda embarrassing. All I’m saying is that I want to look like her when my son is 25. Congratulations to Trey Songz.

For any of you suffering from Adult acne, instead of “Proactive” you should try Dermalogica’s MediBac kit for $40.00. I promise you will start to see your face clear in just a few days. I hate that PROACTIVE has all these actors, actresses, musicians on their site that are PAID to endorse their product when non of them ever suffered from REAL acne, they show pictures of a break out and they act like it was such a bad time in their life.
I have used this product on a few people and it has cleared their skin completely, try it, the kit should last you about a month or 2.
