Fail-Free Beauty Regimen: Must Read for All Girls

K here. We've all heard of this sorcery called Witch Hazel, right? Well, it looks like this: 
And it's really awesome for a lot of reasons. It cleanses your face, gently removes eye make up, and it even gets rid of those nasty eye bags that are so big, you can basically go shopping. Haha, get it? Shopping? Bags? Haha....Ok. Anyways.

I used it on Sunday and have already seen results in my skin tone and evenness. We all have damage on our skin from the sun, or tanning, and it makes your skin tone uneven. It even got those pesky pimples that pop up now and then due to stress. 

I wash my face every morning and every night. In the morning, I use Clean and Clear Morning Burst. It has these little micro beads in them that burst and get in deep into your pores and clean out the yucky stuff you've accumulated in your sleep. Here's what it looks like:
Then, after that's all done and over with, put some Witch Hazel on a cotton ball and rub in on your face. You can use this around your eyes, and I encourage you do, because it's slowly diminished my under eye bags. Why? Because it has the same ingredient that Preparation H has, which tightens. Make sure you moisturize after.

At night, I use Dove soap. I just use the original white beauty bar, that looks like this: 
And it really works well. After all day of wearing make up, it gets in your pores and cleans it all out. It's old fashioned, but I promise you, it works. A plastic surgeon told my grandmother, who told my mom about it. I've not complained once. After that, use the Witch Hazel and moisturize. 

I promise you will see results, because I know I have. Also, to wash the eye make up off your eyes, I recommend you use some type of baby soap. It's tear free, mild, and gentle on the tissue of your eyes. That tissue is super thin, so it's important that you take caution not to rub too hard or anything on it.

Hope you like it!

Love,

DIY Shaving Gel

Hello, girlies! P here! And I have a recipe for DIY shaving gel! Yes, you read that right, homemade shaving gel. Here's the facts so you can get started:

What you need:
Shampoo (this is where you use the old shit laying around
Conditioner (the best smelling kind. I used Pantene.)
1 tablespoon of coconut or baby oil
1 tablespoon of scented lotion or body wash (I used Vanilla Lace lotion from Victoria's Secret)

What you do:
Combine it all in a container (I used an old shampoo bottle)
Shake (it like a Polaroid picture...Lol, get it?...Ok.)
Let it sit and gel for a while before you use it.

This is super cost effective and it really works and makes your skin super soft. Plus, it gets all the old stuff you have laying around out of the way and put to good use. 

You're welcome.

Hi. P here. Sometimes we (us girls) find ourselves in predicaments that we don't know how to get out of them. Even though I don't have all the answers to all of them, I do have the solution to one: the I-just-got-dumped pickle.

Step one: 
Slap that asshole.
Like so:

Step two:
Get some ice cream.
Or box wine:

Whatever works.

Dry, or Split Ends? Hair Won't Grow? Here You Go!!

Hello, my girls. P here! Have you been struggling with dry, split ends? Is your hair just NOT growing no matter what you do? I have an awesome solution for all of that and then some. It's called coconut oil! It works magic. K and I have been using it for quite sometime and we have experienced more shine, strength, length, and thickness after about 2 weeks of use. K and I both have pretty long hair and it works like magic. 

The Facts:
Buy some coconut oil. You can purchase this at Wal-Mart and any health food store around because it is completely organic and 100% virgin.

Here are some places online if you are too lazy to get up and out like us:
pipingrock.com
amazon.com
It's relatively cheap and if you get a bigger bottle, you can get a lot of uses out of it.

The oil will come in a solid but when you put it in your hands, it turns to liquid with your body heat, so that's pretty neat.


ANYWAY
Section your hair off and apply the oil to your hair and SATURATE it, I mean, soak it.
Keep doing that to your whole head, every section
When done, braid it down or put it in a ballerina bun and sleep in it.

When you wake up, take your hair out and shower as normal. You WILL see results. It's amazing and it really works. I promise you!

I Got Played!!!

P here. This is an outrage! Remember me talking about Gerard in my Chivalry....It's Endangered post? Yeah, well, apparently he's been talking to K's friend's sister! WTF?! I forgot to mention that Gerard is K's cousin. We met at a Super Bowl party. I know, promising, right? WRONG! Ugh! I am so tired of being let down by guys. Why can't Luke Bryan just divorce his wife and get with me? 

Don't hate the player, hate the game, I guess :(

Whiter Teeth in 1 Week: The Secret? It's in Your First Aid Kit!

Hey, girlies! It's K! I just wanted to make a quick entry before class. 

We all know that one of the many secrets in beauty is white teeth. That is, after all, what people tend to notice first. Unless you have big boobs, then it's a different story. Anyways....

The truth of the matter is that you can spend tons of money of teeth whitener when the real magic is hidden right in your first aid kit! Yep, that's right! It's HYDROGEN PEROXIDE!! Who knew, right?

Here's what you need to do; 
Brush your teeth thoroughly
Put some hydrogen peroxide on your toothbrush
Brush with it
Rinse
DONE!!

I've been doing this for about a week now, starting on Monday, and by Friday I noticed my teeth her much whiter. I do it every other day and I do it right before bed. I promise you that you will see results. If you don't feel comfortable with brushing with it, swish with it and you will see the same results. 

You're welcome!

Love,

Chivalry...It's Endangered :(

P here. I want to blog about chivalry tonight. It's late here (about 10:20, the time at the bottom of our blogs are wrong.) and I have nothing more to do. 

So, I'm talking to this guy, let's call him Gerard (yes, like Gerard Butler. He resembles him immaculately) and he is......Different. Not in a bad way, but a good way. And intriguing way. He likes to be chased, which, if you know me, is super weird. Because I am the one who is usually being chased.

Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I'm about 5'6, 120 pounds, long blonde hair, green/grey eyes, and tan. Needless to say, I'm attractive. I tend to get chased a lot. But not by gentlemen. By pigs. The kind who ask you to "hang out" instead of "on a date." Which, girls, we all know there is a difference.

Now, about Gerard. You see, he is 5 years (6 technically, my bday is March) older than I, but he knows what he wants. And so do I. So, here we are, stuck in this adventure I like to call the Chase Game.

The Chase Game is a bastard, alright? It's where he doesn't want to chase you and you don't want to chase him. Not because you're afraid of being annoying, but because you know you deserve to be chased, and unfortunately....So does he.

See how confusing it is?! This is where I am in my life. Why can't he just ask me on a date, or something? I know why! Because HE wants ME to ask HIM out, and that my friends, is NOT going to happen.

What I'm really trying to get at here, is why can't guys be less complicated and more chivalrous? Why, oh, why can't they ask us out to dinner or a movie, hold the door open, pay for us, and listen to our bantering and bitching and LOVE IT?! We spend 98% of our life looking good for guys, talking to guys, listening to guys, and hating them, as well. 

For Christ's sake, as me on a date, man! Take me out and treat me like the hot mama I know I am! It's not that hard! Gahhh! 

This is me right now: 

And he's over there all smug like:


Sorry to rant, but I mean, COME ON!!!!

To be continued....

My Pants Should Have Been on Fire.

Hi. P here. So, I faked sick Friday and sent my professor an email saying that I had the flu. I went grocery shopping for K & I's bash party (aka, sleepover....yes we're twenty something and still have sleepovers) and guess what! I ran into my professor!

My heart fell out of my ass. This was my face:
And, yes, he saw me. This was HIS face: 

So, he proceeded to ask me how I was feeling and blah, blah, blah. I was so embarrassed, and I was dressed really cute, too! I had on skinny jeans, a cute top and a chunky scarf. So, he had to know I was, in fact, feeling much better and probably could have made it to class. 

Moral of the story here, don't go grocery shopping in a chunky scarf that's $29.99 because you get too hot in the damn store!

Or...just don't lie to your professor.

Your choice!

DIY Oatmeal Body Scrub

We were messing around one morning and decided that we really needed to shave our legs. And, ladies, we know that it's this huge challenge to do this. You have to deal with the razor burn, bending over, being a contortionist, and so on and so forth. Well, we can't help you with everything, but the razor burn? We got that covered. 

So with the 2 creative minds of one blondie and a brunette, we came up with this AMAZING concoction. And it freaking works! Like, wow! Our skin stayed soft all day long and it was shiny! And not that greasy shiny, either (you know what I mean). So, without further adieu, Oatmeal Body Scrub:


What you'll need
Old fashioned oats: It doesn't matter what kind, but the kind that comes in the big canister.
Oil: Coconut works best, but you can use canola, olive, or baby oil, too.
Lotion: Your favorite kind. We used some organic stuff of K's. Last time I did it, I used Victoria's Secret.
Sugar: White or brown. I've used just white, just brown, and I've used both. I like the brown best.

What to do
Combine in a bowl
1 c of oats
1 c of sugar
1/2 of oil
And then however much lotion you want

Stir it all up until it gets thick, but not runny. If it's not to your desired thickness, then add water or milk to it.

And you're done! 

Apply it to your legs before you shave, rinse, and then shave. I scrub on each leg about a handful and then rinse it off. There is NO NEED to use shaving cream or whatever the hell you use to shave, this prevents dry skin AND razor burn.  You can use it on your body and it's safe to use on your face, too.

Now, when you're done, make all your friends feel your amazing legs. They will feel like cashmere :)
