Tips for Spray Tanning

I went today to get my spray tan for New Years.  I am still going once per week to maintain my color.  I swear by Versa Spa.  In my town it's located at Sun Tan City.  I get medium clear spray and love it.  My tips for spray tanning are the following:
1.  Go about 3 to 5 days before your event
2.  Put the barrier cream all over your hands and bottoms of your feet.  I mean rub the cream on your hands like hand lotion.  My hands still get color this way.  If I don't I get really dark knuckles and hands.
3.  I wipe my face off with a makeup wipe about 2 1/2 hours after I get my spray tan.  My face also tans easily and this helps to make my make up look nice as well.

Happy tanning :)

Knit Black Uggs

I just purchased these Uggs on sale for 130 from zappos and they are regularly 170.  I got them and really love them.  I love the look of the knit Uggs a lot and have a gray pair that I really like.  These fit a little looser at the top, but look really good overall.  What's your favorite pair??

New Jeans

My boys are spending the weekend with my parents.  I took this time to do a little alone time things for myself.  I traveled over to our mall.  I had to return some items.  If you remember at the beginning of the summer I was on the hunt for some capri jeans.  I found them at American Eagle.  I have worn them all summer long and still love them.  I even got a second pair when they marked them down because I love them so much.  I went in American Eagle just to see if they had any more.  I am kind of on the very of hoarding when it comes to finding items I like LOL.  They didn't have those anymore, but they did have all of their jeans on sale for 30 dollars.  I think that's a pretty good price for jeans.  I love the Arist Jeans.  I did have to go up a size because of the tight stretch.  I don't like to look molded into my jeans.  I got the soft deep blue.  I love this color because it's a darker denim that I think looks good with many looks.  I also like that these jeans come in short length.  I am not tall (5'1) and can wear these jeans with my flip flops and not walking on them.  Now I will most likely have to buy another pair in the regular length to wear with heels in the fall but we will see.  Real Simple had these jeans in their magazine for jeans that are mommy tummy friendly.  That also makes me happy :)

Drugstore Hair Love

I was recently watching My Favorite Things on Bravo.  Kyle Richards was on this episode.  I really do enjoy her for some crazy reason. One item on her list was hair care products.  She has stated for many years that she lives by Pantene products.   Her hair to me is what I am striving for.  It's very healthy and lush looking.  It's also very long which I think can be hard to achieve.  Once I finished my current Shampoo and Conditioner I picked some Pantene up at the drugstore.  I watched for a week that it was on sale and I also had a 3 dollar off coupon from the Sunday paper.  I have been using it now for 2 weeks and have to say my hair is feeling much better.  I went to the beach for 2 weeks and had a great time but it was hard on my hair.  I purchased the fine hair line and the beautiful lengths line as well.  I rotate each day what I use.  The effects I have noticed are: shiny hair, less frizzy, and doesn't get lots of tangles.
