Summer Arm Candy

 I love jewelry. I love bold jewelry, big jewelry, bright jewelry, what some people call, "statement pieces". And I love some fun arm candy AKA appendage bling, arm art, bracelets and such.

My new bracelets that I saw and fell quite fond of...are these rubber bracelets that look like chain. Who's tired of wearing noisy metal bangles that hurt your wrist? Soften up for some and go waterproof with these colorful wrist dandies!
They are the Marc Jacobs Rubber Turnlock Bracelets.
 I have on the grey and black....but I know they make a neon pink that I bet looks amazing for a summer pop of color! And I love that bright kelly green color above!

This is a great bracelet for the beach this summer because it's waterproof and so lightweight you don't even feel it!
I love Marc Jacobs jewelry...it's fun, chunky, playful and chic...
I would just pile these on in neon pink or turquoise!

these can be the new jelly bracelets of the 80's!
arm decoration ahoy, kandee

There's a NEW MASCARA comin' to town!

 Throw your lashes in the air and wave em' like you just don't care- but only the fake ones! ha ha ha
I am a mascara-fan....I love and always have hope that some new formula will finally be the mascara I've been waiting for.

So here's so new lash-anticipation for the New Extended Play Mascara from MAC!
What it's supposed to do:
Give you 16 hours of ongoing black-lash wear!
Curl and lift even downward facing lashes, up to the skies for lightweight lash-lift.
Lengthen and define them to new levels.
Make you find you find a million dollars - just kidding.

And even though it should cling on like a pair of too tight jeans...or a tattoo...
Removal should go like this:
20 second soak in warm water (just hold a warm water soaked washcloth up to your eyes) and wipe them off....
And back to nude lashes, free of all mascara!

The new MAC Mascara - Extended PLay Lash will be available in the US MAY 24th.
Internationally in JUNE.
It comes in one color: Endless Black
Price: $15 USD/ $18.00 CDN
(which, 15 bucks is not so pricey, when some drugstore mascaras are up to $13 now!)

Maybe I'll try it and it might make my favorite video....we'll see!
What your favorite and least favorite mascara you've tried!

blinking lashes, kandee

How to find Glitterful things in life's messes!

This is your Sunday Soulspiration....
Like a  kick in your "soul pants" to help ya get through the week.

Last week, Blake (my 4 year old), had accidentally spilled some make-up glitter. And when he was explaining what happened he said, "but mama, it's so GLITTERFUL"....

and in that second I thought and said, "you're right baby, IT IS, soooooo GLITTERFUL"...

And that is how all kinds of things in our life can be, that look like accidents, mistakes, mess-ups or hurts....to the world they may look like "mess-ups", but really they are "glitterful" spills that strengthen our character, make us stronger, and build determination to go after something with all that's in us and not take life or other peoples "no's" for an answer.

Take your past or current "life accident"...and think of Blakey's "glitterful" spill, and how beauty can come from a not-so-pretty "mis-hap".  God will make beautiful things of our life- no matter how bad we think it's a mess! I've had some glittery things found after some pretty "non-glittery"  and rather ugly situations in my life! Never look at the ugly parts...always look for

I love that  saying: you don't become a great sailor, sailing only smooth seas

You become great for having gone through something, not giving up, and for letting yourself become better and not bitter.

So let go of feeling like your life is full of "things gone wrong"...and look at how those very things that "went wrong" can be the very thing that make awesome things in your life "go right"! And start looking for the "glitterful" things all around!

Don't be a victim- be victorious.
Don't be a whiner- be a winner.

Now let's go show this life of yours, what you can do, be and accomplish.
Put the past where it belongs, behind you, and start looking for all that glitter!

hugs and handfuls of glitter, kandee

OH AND HERE WAS MY VIDEO THAT IS MY NEW FAVORITE: (my mom not only does my make-up, but she answers your questions about how i got my name and more fun/embarrassing stuff!)

Stop Sign Flowers and the Saturday Random 5

Ok, to kick off this weekend right....
I had to show you guys this awesome-ness.
Check out the stopsignflower to visit the brilliance of this idea. Basically a guy's daughter got a knitting kit, he had to learn how to teach her how to do it. He thought of knitting these "stop sign flowers" and put them up around San Diego.
And I love it!

Ok, now to the business at hand-
The SATURDAY RANDOM 5 facts:

#1. I wish I made shoes because no one seems to be able to make cute shoes that are comfortable.  Bring on the failed attempt to buy a pair of sandals- if they were cute they hurt my feet, if they were comfortable, they were ugly as sin.

#2. I love them smell of real roses, but I don't like "fake" rose scents.

#3. I played the Hammered Dulcimer, when I was little- if you don't know what it is google it. I know it's kinda weird. But I like being weird.

#4. I think my one beauty product I couldn't live without would be black eyeliner. ha ha ha ha (my favs are SMOLDER or FELINE from MAC and PERVERSION from Urban Decay or drugstore the Kohl liner from L'Oreal)

#5.  And, I'd like to add that I'd like to make bathing suits too, because I would design bathing suits that would look flattering on every body shape...not just mannequins or super models. Reasons why I run straight into the water. ha ha ha ha


FAVORITE FUNNY QUOTE OF THE WEEK:
"If stress burned calories, I'd be a supermodel"....ha ha ha ha ha too bad stress does the opposite! ha ha 

what are you up to this weekend!?!?

can't find a cute sandal even when I tried,
kandee

PS. Did you see my yacht yet!?! ha ha ha ha ha ha CLICK HERE TO CHECK IT OUT- it's awesome!

Edible and Amazing Hair- just a spoon full of Sugar!


 ok, so you've heard songs from the 50's about girls with hair that smelled so good you wanted to eat it...ok, or maybe you haven't....
either way...
I want hair that smells so good you could eat it...and now, my sweets...we can!

I know, I know, I already told you guys about these in my April Favorite Video- if you missed it, I'll post it below again...
But, I've been loving these so much, I thought they are worthy of a post just dedicated to their deliciousness.
Yes, the Candy Fixation line from TiGi Bed Head- is amazing! Not only does is smell so good, but it works just as amazing too!
I bought all 5 of these babies:
Tigi Bed Head Candy Fixation Mega Whip - is a light texturizer, that's slightly creamy, but gives a soft piecey look or smoothed look. This would be great for guys hair, too for a soft touchable, matte look- no crispy gel hair look. It gives you "up to 90% humidity defense"- so humidity-frizz hair- BEWARE! SMELLS LIKE: Marshmallow Heaven


Tigi Bed Head Candy Fixation Sugar Dust - got some day old hair that needs some oompf, volume and dry shampoo action- this is your product. Give freshly washed hair extra volume and lift, will help teasing hair too! SMELLS LIKE: Tutti Frutti Grape Tarts


Tigi Bed Head Candy Fixation Glaze Haze- A great smoothing serum (I've been using every day!) to smooth strands and fly aways, help speed up blow-drying time up to 25% (we all love that!) and fight humidity too. Gives great shine without looking greasy. It has a special blend of Rice Bran Oil, Sugar Cane Extract, Cashmere Keratin and Bamboo Extract to add strength and vitality to your hair. SMELLS LIKE: Creme Brulee (my favorite!)


Tigi Bed Head Candy Fixation Totally Baked perfect light whipped meringue mousse, to put in your hair before you blow dry. It gives volume and shape to your hair- to give you the perfect blow dry action. It's not heavy or sticky at all. SMELLS LIKE: Lemon Meringue


Tigi Bed Head Candy Fixation Sugar Shock- This is more sugar than salt- It's like those Salt Sprays that give you that beachy hair texture but without all the tangles and dried out hair.  It gives you boost of volume and that "beach waves" texture, and will help hold the look too. Great for short or long, fine or thick hair too! SMELLS LIKE: Pink Cotton Candy


And studied show that guys love things that smell like food....so look out! You might have some guys chases you and your delicious smelling hair! ha ha ha And your hair will be looking extra amazing! 


Hairs to you, kandee
