Today is a good Lupus Day , I know right . Knock on wood that it stays that way at least for a couple of hours.  No rash, my face is clear , Minimal Pain that i can handle , a Bit of energy, just enough to clean up and do a few loads of laundry. Got dressed and pulled my hair up in a bun.  But I haven't done makeup yet . Not gonna push it . I wanted to jump on here and post a few thoughts  So Saturday on the Lifetime channel it was the world premiere of Toni Braxton's Unbreak my heart movie.  If you missed it you will have to catch it on a rerun. It's amazing . http://www.mylifetime.com/movies/toni-braxton-unbreak-my-heart  I have always loved Toni Braxton's music but to watch her story and what she went through made me love her more.  I think she is a courageous woman for letting the world know that she too is a Lupus warrior .  At first when she was diagnosed she wanted to keep it quiet which i am sure we all have done at one time . Me included.  I tho

So I received this beauty in the mail the other day and I can honestly say I was Hesitant that it wasn't going to be a good palette But boy did i get proved wrong . It's from Pacifica Beauty and it's Called the Power Of Love Palette It is $20.00 on there website  www.pacificabeauty.com It has a magnetic closure so it will stay shut in your purse and it is recyclable . ( How awesome ) The colors are richly pigmented and the lasting Power is amazing applied with a Primer of course. I am excited to play around with it some more. Of course the Light shades don't show up on me PaleGirl Problems. ( Next to shine on i have a bruise it's not the shade .)                                                                                                                   Swatches   Here is the Makeup of the Day The Look - It's A  toned down purple Smokey Eye .   I will list what the steps are on the top and what i use on the Bottom This day

Let’s talk about the fun stuff Makeup Products and The lil Extra's Ipsy Glam Bag for January It was all About The Eyes  I finally received my bag for this month and again I am happy with what I received. I am a simple person and so I find gratitude for these kinds of things. It’s hard when you sit in bed and can’t really do a whole lot But I guess it’s better than being in a hospital so I choose to do things slowly. Any who I am getting off topic .. Focus Girl Focus.   So I was super excited this month because my 14 yr old daughter wanted in on the subscription as well .  That shocked me a little. She is the type of girl who isn’t really into makeup But she can rock a red lip .  She is gorgeous without it but she was so intrigued , so I signed her Up under me so that meant we got the extra gift .    Woot Woot! Now her bag came way before mine but mine shipped out first?? Strange I know, But in a way I am glad she got hers first.

Hello my name is Misty. I am a 40 yr. old woman and I Have SLE /DiscoidLupus and it really,really sucks.  Just when I start feeling better the world hits me head on and hard and once again I am down. I can handle the hellish pain I feel every day  (to a point )  then all I want to do is cry.  But I can't   because  it takes all of my energy.  Just like showering,walking, moving    getting dressed, breathing , cleaning etc.   You get the Idea. I am tired of being tired, exhausted and fatigued and sick all the time . All of which is different things in different ways.  I hate that this disease has taken over my life and I am controlled by it.   I am on an emotional roller coaster every  day.  I am so mad that I can't do normal things anymore without paying the price days later or the fact that    pretty much anything has been a task without being tired or having to rest after. For instance   I had to go to the store yesterday and it took me 4 hrs. . 4 hr
