Just a Random Girl

Well actually, I have two hair products. But two is better than one! I have naturally curly hair, so curl-enhancer type products are obviously a must. The first is the African Pride Shea-Butter Curl Pudding . This is just an absolute favorite of mine! It gives the best curls for me. It keeps them soft and frizz free the whole time (and still looks pretty good the next day, too) The second is the Cantu Curl Activator Cream . I've found that this is more for kinky-curly hair than my type. It's all natural and keeps your curls bouncy and full of volume. By the way, if you have any hair products you'd like to share with me, please feel free to use the comment box!

Spring is in the air! Flowers are blooming, birds are singing, stores are racking up for upcoming sales. Speaking of which, Lolli Couture is having an Easter sale right now as I write this post .

Just enter the promo code EST65 or EST70 at checkout to get your discount on any order. There's also free shipping on orders over $60.00 (just to let you know *wink wink*) For more go to:  http://shrsl.com/?gq3f

Is anyone else just so in love with the fact that this whole fitness trend is so popular? I mean, nowadays you just see so many women in the gym really grinding it out when before only few even had the thought cross their mind (at least to me). It’s just so beautifully empowering! I hope it won’t just be some fad, though. All that progress will go to waste!  What are your thoughts on it? I’d love to hear what you think, so please feel free to use the comment box!

Hi!! Sorry it took me a while to update! I’ve recently just gotten back from a trip up north to visit family. IT WAS SO COLD! If you’re like me and you’re a little too used to being in warm weather, you’ll understand my pain (heck, I’m pretty sure you understand even if you don’t live in warm weather). I even caught a cold while I was there so now my voice is all raspy :( However , there was an upside to all this: I finally had the chance to wear my new Madison boots from So Enticing (as well as the other 90% of my wardrobe) They were so comfortable and easy to walk in through the snow. I was a little sad when I had to put them back in my closet. Still, I’d rather stay in my warm weather than wear the boots any day!

I got such a STEAL from Lolli Couture that I just had to tell you all about! First, I found this beautiful dusty rose-pink dress down in the Just In page! I browsed the store a bit more and found this cute black leather purse . Then I decided to get a pair of shoes (because why not) and I found the most gorgeous champagne-colored ankle boot heels !! And just as I was about to leave, I saw this white faux-leather jacket that was on sale for 80% off!! Am I lucky or what?

My skin has been getting so much better since I’ve started using this black mask !  It was a little weird for me the first time I put it on. It almost felt like I was putting tar on my face. And it’s so hard to resist scratching your face when you have the mask on >_< Taking it off SUCKED for me! I felt like I was pulling my own skin off. Ironically, this is what happens when you use the mask. And no , I don’t mean that you actually pull off all your skin, just the dead skin on the surface of your face. This gives your skin a cleaner and brighter glow! Anyway, my skin has been so much clearer this past week. Just thought I’d share it with you :) By the way, if you want to check out the mask, click this link: https://soenticing.com/collections/wraps-creams-gels/products/black-peel-off-mask

Hello, everyone!! I decided to change the name of my blog. I was in a rush to get this blog started in the beginning, so I went with the first name that came to my head. Later on I found it a little... odd, I guess? I'm sure you have too. Besides, it didn't really fit well with what I actually talk about. Which brings us here now! This blog is now officially "Just a Random Girl"! P.S.: I changed my theme too! Have you noticed?

I just can’t get enough of this caffeine cream !! Seriously. I ran out of a WHOLE JAR in just a few weeks. Am I crazy or what? The thing about this caffeine cream is that it not only helps you achieve losing pesky belly fat, it takes away signs of cellulite and stretch marks! Combine it with the power of the slimming wrap and you’ve got my version of the Wonder Twins (just kidding :) ) By the way, if you want to check it out, there’s an actual combo deal for a slimming wrap and caffeine cream here .

Okay, so I’ve realized that the Black Mask facial only cleared away the blackheads on the surface of my skin… Has it happened with any of you? Seeing a few people write complaint reviews about it, I was beginning to think that it was false advertisement, so I decided to look on the box. Maybe there was something I missed. I’ve also realized that most of us don’t pay attention to detail -_- (@myself, please stop that) It literally tells you in the directions that you have to leave a hot rag on your face for a few minutes before applying the facial. By doing that, you open up your pores and the mask will remove your blackheads much easier. 

Sorry I'm late!! I got caught up with a few errands and lost track of time. I took the mask off when I was supposed to, so don't worry. This Black Mask definitely keeps it's promises! Not only did it remove the many  blackheads I had, it made my skin glow a bit. That, or I had a lot of dirt on my face... Either way, this facial mask is my life saver!

Good Morning, Good Afternoon, and Good Evening to you all! A few days ago I had purchased a tube of the Black Mask facial from So Enticing , which had just arrived today. I’m actually wearing it right now, so i just need to wait a few minutes to let it work it’s magic.  Apparently the Black Mask facial remove your blackheads, fine facial hair, and dead skin on the surface. Lucky for me, I’m currently harboring all three so let’s see if this black mask is for real.  Unfortunately, I’m not using it on my face at the moment. Just on my nose since it’s a critical case.  I’ve already put a half-hour on the timer. I’ll make another post later to tell you guys about it, so stay tuned!

I HAVE RISEN FROM THE GRAVE ONCE AGAIN! Tell me, how terrible am I? I haven’t updated in so long!  Sorry for the long delay, but during the last week I had went on vacation and there was NO INTERNET. I had absolutely no idea about it but even so I am SO sorry!! But , on the bright side Lolli Couture is having another sale right now as I type this! Since it’s a new month AND a new season, they’re currently having a sale for *drum roll* 70% OFF! This store is just... a treasure chest to me. Great quality, great prices, and so far there’s always sales!! You have to hurry though! This sale only lasts until the end of March. Use the code: LCC70 For more: http://www.lollicouture.com

Guess what... I finally got my full-body shaper in the mail!! Now I can keep going with slimming my lower body like I originally planned, all while keeping up with the waist-training. It's just perfect for me right now! The thing is, I can't wear it outside. I mean, I probably could don't get me wrong. It's just that it's not completely undetectable under your clothes. Plus, it has a zipper so it makes your stomach look weird under clothing. BUT that's what I have the regular waist-trainers for, so it all works out. Have a great day everyone!!

It's February!! Which means... IT'S VALENTINES DAY!!! The perfect time of year! Not only do you get to spend that special day with your significant other (or even your family, it's not all about romance!), but THINK OF THE SALES!! For example, So Enticing is having a sale for 20% off! Just enter the promo code “vday”. Also, although it's not for Valentine's Day, Lolli Couture is currently having a moving sale for up to 70% off! Is that a steal or what?  

YAYY I'M NOT DEAD!! LOL sorry, just a little joke :) It's been... What, a week? I'm SO sorry I haven't been posting. Things got slightly hectic at work for me and I've had to take my assignments home the past few days. BUT I'm here now, so better late than never, am I right? The waist-trainers have been working well for me, as always. I've also reached my 30-inch waist goal!! For those of you who wear waist-trainers, keep in mind that once you get down to your target weight, it isn't the end. If you're someone like me (I gain weight quickly), I HIGHLY recommend wearing the waist-trainer consistently. You may think you're done with it, but trust me, this is only the beginning.

I've been itching to buy a few things, but I can't seem to choose. I thought I'd make a wish-list here so that way I'd remember when I have the money to buy them. Who knows, maybe you'll end up finding something you like.

Not too long ago, when I had just started to get serious about my health and working out, I remember being so afraid to go to the gym. I'm pretty sure most of you have been there as well. Feeling insecure about your body or that you'd stick out like a sore thumb when doing a certain exercise? I ended up looking up a few exercises (and I'm also guessing that's how you got here, yes?) and I thought I'd share them with you now :) I'd recommend doing the exercises with a sports waist trainer , although it's not preferable when doing abdominal exercises. They're more made for cardio. You could try , but it'd be pretty hard with all the restriction. (By the way, these exercises are my interpretation of a beginner workout. You can go as high or low as you want, whichever is good for you) 10 push-ups 30 crunches 25 squats 20 lunges (10 on each side) 40 second wall-sit 30 second planking Like I said before, this is jus...

You know, sometimes there will be things that show up in your life you just can't control. There's no point in being sad, there's no point in being angry. Getting upset will get you nowhere. You just have to look at the situation in the face and say, “It is what it is. Accept it.” Tell that to yourself as many times as you need to. There's no need to rush. Do something that makes you happy! Write a story, draw, maybe take a walk. Might not make the problem go away, but it can at least help you cope. Remember, focus on what you want.  

Hey, everyone! I swear, I just keep finding the best products on this site ! For those of you who've read my content (thank you, btw), you know how much I've been getting into these products, as well as how much I absolutely adore them. I can honestly say that this full-body shaper will solve all my problems! Not only does it cinch your waist as you wear it, but it's also a butt-lifter! This is the real deal . You want the full hourglass figure, you've got to get this product! For further information, go to: https://soenticing.com/

I was at the gym today when I noticed something. I had just finished my workout. I took off my waist-trainer and as I stared at myself in the mirror I realized there was something different about my body. Then it hit me: MY WAIST LOOKED SMALLER Being the hyper person I am, I immediately got excited and practically ran to the scale to check my weight. I lost four pounds! I ended up celebrating by getting a donut :) I'm so happy that my hard work is starting to pay off! Sounds cheesy, but anything is possible with hard work and faith!

I started thinking of some ideas for blog content and I thought, “I don't think I've shared an 'Outfit of the Day' post yet. Dramatic gasp How dare I call this a fashion blog without sharing an 'Outfit of the Day' post?!” It's just that I've been a little busy at home, so I haven't been able to go out much. I also feel a little weird about dressing up even though I'm just in the house (Which I should get over. I mean, what's the harm in it?). So I decided to share one today. I wore this cute olive-green dress today with these gold heels . I even made a day out of it! I went to a little coffee shop near my house and got a little work done on my laptop, and then I went to the local park that has this whole walkway to see the lake. After that I came to this street in my neighborhood that's lined with antique stores, a book store, and this place called “The Tea Room”. I've never been inside but through ...

I've been in a drought. And by a drought, I mean a shopping drought. I don't know, I haven't really had time to go shopping. I would try to buy on the internet, but lately there haven't really been things that interested me. I'm thinking of trying out different styles as well and see what would work best for me. I'm curious. What types of clothing are you all interested in? What kind of stores do you like to shop at? Maybe you can give me some style tips ;) Please give your response in the comments below!

Hi, my wonderful readers! I've been browsing the net for something new to try out and I found what is called a “butt-lifter” . It lifts the buttocks while compressing the tummy and defining your thighs and hips, which is what I've needed lately. My goal to get my waist to at least 30 inches is almost complete, so working on my legs and thighs is the next step. Apparently it works rather well at the gym, which makes me excited to use it. You can use it overnight too! I probably wouldn't take it that far, though. Persistence is key when working towards your goals, but you don't want to overdo it.

Dos and Don'ts for a Waist-Training Diet Hello, everyone! Now, for the past week I've been waist-training and going to the gym in order to lose the belly fat I've gained over the recent holidays. I realized I've been slacking off lately with the food I've been eating. Eating fruits an vegetables is definitely recommended when waist-training. Personally I like to eat more fruit than the latter, but a great way to get your veggies in would be to mix them with your favorite meals! For example, adding spinach to your pasta (whole wheat not white) or putting peppers and onions in your tacos. I like to slice my veggies in small pieces and saute them with cut up turkey bacon (pork bacon has a lot of fat, which isn't really preferable with this type of diet). Eating things such as white bread or white rice isn't good for keeping a flat stomach. Switching from white to brown, or in this case whole wheat, would be better. Switching from white sugar to ...

Hello! I've recently purchased this combo deal from that store I've been talking about. I swear, I am obsessed with this site! It's not like it's a bad thing, though. I love all the deals. :) This combo includes a Sports waist-trainer (This time with a cute leopard print), a jar of slimming cold gel , and a roll of osmotic wrap . I've only used the cold gel once with a regular latex waist-trainer around the house. It's worked pretty well, so far. Basically, it keeps your tummy cool as you're burning fat. Kind of like Icy Hot with a kick. The osmotic wrap does the same thing, but put both together and you've got the perfect duo! I think I'll try using them on my arms soon. For more go to: https://soenticing.com/ Until next time!

A couple weeks ago I had these waist-trainers delivered to me from an online store I've talked about recently. I, honestly, love them. I had put on some (a lot of) holiday weight, so I immediately made the decision to go to the gym. The Sports waist-trainer works very well for me. I can't remember the last time I sweated so much! The funny thing is that I barely did anything; I only ran on the treadmill for a few minutes and worked on a few machines (It was the first time I went to the gym in months. Don't judge me). I like to wear the latex waist-trainer around the house so that way I can sweat a little body fat away from doing household chores. I tend to wear it to the office as well to keep my back straight (I hunch over the desk a lot). Plus, it makes my waist look nice and slim when it's worn under clothes.

Okay, so a little while back I got a little crazy with spending money... I couldn't help it, I had just gotten a raise from work then! It was time to do a little shopping. I had went online to this website that had the cutest selection in clothes. I told myself, “Just buy one outfit. Control yourself.” Let's just say that FedEx stopped by my house quite frequently that month. A personal favorite of mine was this gorgeous black dress . I ended up wearing it to a party with these shoes for New Years Eve. There's also tons of accessories, such as this black choker , to choose from on this site. Best part, it's super cheap and has great quality. That's something you don't see every day! For more go to: https://soenticing.com/
