Pieces Of Ashley

For the year 2013, I did not make any resolutions; however I said that I wanted to be a better me than I was last year. So in order to do that I have to make positive changes to improve my life. I chose the title "A Healthier Me" because it means more than what you may think. So before I say all of the things I am changing, I will like to say this. Thank you so much to those of you who read my blog and to whom I became close with from blogging and being on twitter. I would not imagined my life to be like this. What I mean is, I was one who said I would not ever get a twitter because of so many reasons. I've been on twitter for almost a year, so there is no turning back I guess! Anyways back to the point a healthier me does not just mean exercising more and eliminating bad foods it means getting rid of the negative energy that may be near me. This could mean the people I talk to or whatever. So down below are a few things I am changing. 1. I am going to eat hea...

This is recommended by dermatologist and it is clinically proven to relieve dry skin. The Aveeno lotion moisturizes for 24 hrs. It's fragrance free with natural colloidal oatmeal, which means anyone allergic to fragrances could use this without having an allergic reaction. The Aveeno lotion is nourishing, non-greasy and absorbs quickly. This contains no added fragrance. The oatmeal formula locks in moisture to help prevent and protect dry skin. This leaves your skin feeling soft, smooth, and naturally healthy looking. I love how the Aveeno lotion is non-greasy, because I don't like how other lotions make my skin feel sticky afterwards. Also this product absorbs quickly into the skin, which is a plus. I mean who wants to wait five to ten minutes for a product to soak into the skin. I do recommend giving this a try, especially if you experience dry skin.  I hope you enjoyed about the Aveeno Moisturizing Lotion!  *I used Google Images

This post is important to me because people are judged because of who they are and that is not cool. Not everyone realizes they are beautiful just being themselves. This post is only my opinion and this is how I feel. Society paints an image in people's mind of how they should look and the types of clothes they should wear, but if everyone did that the world would be quite boring. No one should ever feel they are not beautiful. Everyone is beautiful just the way they are, that is what makes the world so unique and different. Being different is actually a good. I know we all have insecurities; we are human and it happens, but do not let those insecurities get you down. You do not have to wear designer brands to be beautiful and you do not have to wear makeup to be beautiful. You are already beautiful just the way you are. I do not know how guys feel, but I know that some girls try to look like these supermodels and they are beautiful. But these models should not be a guide to w...

This is Maybelline's volume express for false eyelashes. This mascara comes in 281 very black noir intense. It gives you more invisible lashes and fills in the gaps and gives you instant volume. I do not wear false eyelashes however I still use this mascara. Personally you do not need to wear falsies to use this. This mascara makes my eyelashes longer and I really like it. In my opinion the mascara does not clump my eyelashes. This is the Baked collection wet/dry eye shadow and I am in love with this. It's a All-in-1: Highlight, Shadow, Liner. The dry gives you a natural look, whereas the wet gives you a dramatic and long-lasting look. You can give yourself a simple smokey look or a dramatic smokey look. For me I am a simple girl, but every now and then going for a dramatic look is cool. This collection is Hypoallergenic, Fragrance Free, Dermatologist approved, Safe for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.   The mineral wear correcting concealer w...

I don't know about you, but I'm in love with beauty products. Specifically fragrance sprays and body lotions. My favorites are from Victoria Secret, I don't have a particular favorite, I like them all. These lotions are very soft and gentle on my skin. I don't experience any harshness on my skin and there's no sticky feeling left.  Fragrance Mists Love Spell: Cherry Blossom & Peach/ Endless Love: Apple Blossom & Ylang Ylang Refreshing formula is infused with conditioning Aloe Vera and Calming Chamomile. Ultra-Moisturizing Hand and Body Cream Love Spell: Cherry Blossom & Peach  Intensive formula is fortified with replenishing and sweet Almond oils, plus hydrating Honey. Massage on for rich, 24 hour moisture focusing on dry and rough areas. This will help the skin feel soft and smooth.                                          ...

Images via Google The Neutrogena oil-free eye makeup remover is effective and gentle on the skin. Not only does it remove makeup, it also removes waterproof mascara. There is no oil residue left on your skin, which is very important when choosing any product for your skin. This makeup remover also includes Aloe and Cucumber extracts which is very good for healthy and soothes the skin. Neutrogena eye makeup remover is dermatologist developed and ophthalmologist tested.  This works really good and I recommend this to anyone. It removes all of your makeup and leaves your skin feeling soft and clean. I would not use any other makeup remover. This product does not sting your eyes at all and that's one of the great things about it. Some products that I have used before have left a a greasy sticky feeling, but this one is does not leave any oily residue. When removing your makeup, especially eye makeup I recommend using cotton balls. Cotton balls are very gentle on the skin....

Have you ever heard anyone saying mayonnaise is good for your hair? For the past couple of years that is all I have heard. So I did some research for myself and was surprised to see all of the articles on mayonnaise as a hair treatment. These articles say that mayonnaise leaves your hair shinny and soft. Mayonnaise is often treated as a conditioner. Mayonnaise can also be a moisturizer for dry hair and because of the protein and fat in the mayonnaise, it keeps your hair: healthy, shiny, hydrated, and improves the texture to. I have not had the chance to try this and I do not think I will. The main reason is because of the smell, we all know how mayonnaise smell(not that great). Did anyone else try this? A re there any other  interesting hair trends or treatments out there? These are the links of the articles I have found about mayonnaise: http://hellogiggles.com/mayonnaise-hair-mask-for-moisture-shine-and-growth http://www.naturallycurly.com/curlreading/produ...
