Why You should Clean Your Makeup Brush

three makeup brushes we can't live without


You've probably done this before curvy divas, borrowed a friend's makeup brush to put on your makeup, or to correct a makeup flaw...or even to cover a pimple?  I had a bit of a shock when I read that for one woman, doing the latter caused her to be paralyzed!  Why?  Because the makeup brush she used to cover a pimple was not clean.  I can't tell you how often I've told my own daughters to be careful of using other friends makeup and even their makeup tools because it may not be safe.


Gone are the days when I would borrow my friend's lip-gloss or eye pencil.  It seems as if there are more risks involved in the least things you do these days.  I never worried about stuff like that back-in-the day. However today it is different and it pays to be really careful.


I just recently washed my makeup brushes two months ago.  Did you know you're supposed to wash them weekly?  Yes, weekly!  I don't, do you?  I usually don't worry about it because I'm the only one who uses them....until I remember that my daughter likes to raid my makeup and sometimes her friends are also putting makeup on at our house, so this is a information I will be sharing with her.


Please do read the story I am linking below and do share with your daughters and girlfriends.  We love to dress up and wear makeup, doing so safely is very important.

Curvy Looks: What I Wore In a Week

I like reviewing my Style-looks to see how my fashion has progressed, what clothing I intend to keep during my #Showmeyourcloset make over (more on this soon) and also just in case I have to re-think my style strategy when in work-mode. There are good days when my looks are on pointe, and those moments when I wonder what the heck was I thinking with a look that I wore! That may have happened to you as well at times curvy divas?! You know, when the clothing you wore makes you go...WTF?!  This was not how I envisioned this look. I can't wait to get home to take it off!lol! Been there, done that so many times! haha

The Look: New Year's Eve the Weddington Way

Picture this curvy divas, your friend is getting married on New Year's Eve, oh the joy! Then she asks you to be her bridesmaid, and guess what else?  No, not wear that same bouffant dress from her cousin's wedding, oh the horror.  You will be able to create your very own bridesmaid style, your way!!!! Your instructions are, since you are ready for this adventure, "You have to select from the bride's choice of dresses".   All you have to do is accessorize!!!!  This beautiful champagne lace dress from Weddington Way is the one!  Picture this, I'm thinking  monochromatic & luxe femininity . H owever, do not outshine the bride, that's always a no-no! The Weddington Way Nora Dress: A perfect choice.   Gorgeous, lace styling, monochromatic, yet luxe - you could style this many ways. Weddington Way Nora Bridesmaid dress in Champagne  Our choices: Lace gloves:   What better way to add that air of sophistication and femininity, with an oomph of lux

Vintage Vogue

In March of 2012 before I decided to create this blog, I shared my love for Vogue magazine on my d-foreverserenity blog with the article I am super-imposing below. I have this "thing" for magazines. I won't say obsession...I love the glossy pages, the colors, and usually read them from cover to cover....! I had so many magazines piled up, I had to get rid of them...and yes, regretted it the minute I did! Anyway, I'm so glad there are online choices now!!!! Takes up less place in my bedroom!lol! I have saved some of my favorite issues, and shared some style inspiration and observation below. These were my  favorite looks from a  Vogue  magazine issue from August 2006 , six years ago in the past, I know, but I have tons of mags and I love  flipping  through the pages!  These  looks are so fresh today !!  Vogue  featured the color combination of  "The  Red  is the new Black" - red being the new black at the time!
