Show Us Your Life - Beauty Secrets

It is time for Show us Your Life Friday's over at Kellys Korner.  This weeks theme is Beauty Secrets.  I'm really interested to see what other people post!!  I have a few little things I'll share but I don't have anything major!

1) My favorite all time body lotion I just discovered recently.  It is this:
I had this up in my cupboard from a baby shower for one of my boys but didn't really want them smelling like Lavender (yes, I'm one of those moms).  Well, in desperation due to dry skin, I tried it and fell in love with it.  In less than 24 hours of the first use, my skin was so soft and not dry anymore!!  I recently shared this in one of my "What I'm Loving, Wednesday" posts I love it so much.

2) I am a Merle Norman Fan!

I was introduced to their makeup when I was about 16 years old and have always returned to their stuff.  A few times, when money was tight, I would try different, less expensive items, and always have returned to their products.  I love their lip pencils without a doubt!!  Their eye shadows do not crease and their skin products really do work great!  Every year or so I try to go in for a free makeup update to check out the new colors and products. 

That's all I have :-)  I would love to get manicure's and pedicures every few weeks because I think that well kept nails always make you  feel better about yourself but with two little boys trying to find time to do my own (when little interested fingers won't add finger prints in them . .. ) doesn't fit in well and paying for that is not in the budget!

Looking forward to seeing what others post!

You might check out my post for SUYL- it's manis for busy moms... I paint my nails at 9 pm and go to bed at 10 and since I use a fast dry top coat (Seche Vite) they are fully dry by the time I go to bed. I can only find time to paint my nails after my kids go to bed.
