GREEN TUESDAY!


Today has been all about green veggies! Veggie Omelet for breakfast & then a veggie smoothie later on!! Here's the recipe for the Glowing Green Smoothie & some health benefits to go along with it as well! This blog doesn't specify exactly how much of each ingredient per se, but I used:

1 banana
1/2 cup peaches
1/2 cup frozen mango
2 handfuls of baby spinach
1/2 cup of water

I also think it would be great to add some chilled green tea to it instead of water, especially for those who don't like the taste of green tea but love the health benefits of it!

Sigma Beauty Precision Makeup Brushes

So a few weeks back I ranted & raved about how excited & pleased I was with the Sigma Makeup Brushes... but now I'm going to rave about them even more! Sigma has recently come out with the Precision Brushes, which look AWESOME!! My mom & I are real suckers for great makeup brushes- & these really made me weak at the knees. I've seen a few tutorials & reviews on them & they sound pretty useful! Check them out at Sigma's Website to see what each of them do in better detail! There are 2 separate kits, one for eyes & the other for face, & another kit for both eyes & face. I will definitely be putting these babies on my Christmas list!
