Feeling Crampy?


"Omg is that a Zit! Damn I'm craving me some French fries actually no I want Nutella, omg look at the burger!!"  - said by ever single girl experiencing hell once a month! 

Menstruation is seriously the most annoying, most painful (okay maybe not mostttttt painful but still so painful!) torture us girls have to endure every single month! And yes I'm writing this post while I'm on the red! 
Well I have a few things to share with you on how to ease up the pain and torture of this fabulous gift. 

Motrin 
This is my best friend, targets menstrual pain and nothing else works for me. Advil and Tylenol can't do anything while I'm on my P! Pop 2 pills of Motrin and in probably 30-45 I'll start feeling less needles being stabbed in my uterus:) 

Cinnamon Leaf Essential Oil 
Newly discovered trick, but smelling this oil you begin to feel more relaxed and less tense. I actually feel less pain while smelling the scent. Thing is you have to keep smelling it if you want to feel relaxed. Because when I stopped smelling it I started feeling the pain come back. What I do is lay down and just smell the oil and it starts calming you down and the pain lessens as you keep inhaling. 

Green Tea
This tea is just a fighter, helps with everything and just makes you feel so much more relaxed. Especially resting the heat of the cup on your stomach just makes the world of pain spin less! 

Pillows 
This is just a gift, pillows are my best friend when I'm dying of cramps. Plomp onto your bed and squeeze pillows under your belly and just scroll through Instagram is the lifeeee lol!

Everyday Loose Curls

Hello Girlies,
Loose curls are the most effortless yet put together hair looks ever. You can look like a bohemian beach babe and with that same hairstyle class it up to a CEO gal. 
I love love love loveeeee my Nume Curling Wand, I got it at Winners it came in a 3 pack, 1/4 in, 1/2in and 1.5in wands. And they're interchangeable so it just comes with one base and then the 3 different wands. I got it for 70$ I believe which is an amazzzzzing deal for 3 different sized wands!! Especially by Nume:) 
How I achieve everyday curls is by having semi straightened hair, I naturally have curly/wavey hair so I just try to tame it down with my straightener and make it more easier to work with to curl. 
Now if I want to achieve the very loose waves then I use the 1.5 in wand but I usually like a little more bounce so I will take thicker sections in the bottom of my hair and curl with the 1in wand. 
Towards the middle and top of my hair I take smaller pieces. I alternate in the direction I curl, so I'll curl toward my face and outwards. 
When I'm done which is like 25 min with this curler ( it's awesome because my hair is thick) I will flip it down and just shake my hair, it adds volume and I run my fingers through to loosen it up voilá my everyday curls :)
