How To Make Your Old Nail Polish Work Better

     You will need: Old finger nail polish, Finger nail polish remover, New clear finger nail polish & Cotton Balls. How many times have you thrown away nail polish that you thought was to clumpy. Now you can save yourself a little money & have a lot more finger nail polish to chose from. You can only use this technique with polish that is not too far gone. Take the polish of your choice, then take your new clear polish & pour 25% of it into the old bottle of nail polish. Screw the top on & shake til it mixes together well. If it is not thinner after the second time of pouring clear nail polish in & shaking well then the polish may not be good any longer. If it does get thinner you have accomplished your goal & now you can apply to nail. Note: You may not need a top coat with this technique.

Be A Blessing

God's word says we are on this earth to be a blessing to others. How are you being a blessing to someone? Did you wave hello to a neighbor. Did you pay for a customers order? Did you give a family food because it was upon your heart to do so or did you let that feeling pass by? On this earth someone will always need a blessing whether you may know them or not. So I challenge you to extend your hand to someone. Spend time with someone who is lonely. Do not talk just listen to someone who may need a shoulder to cry on or just need someone to listen. Do something to bless someone else. You will see when you do you open up happiness for yourself. You also receive a happy spirit in return.  

How To Extend Your Finger Nail Polish

     You will need: Finger nail polish of your choice & clear finger nail polish. Both polishes do not have to be new just in good working condition. You do not need old & clumpy polish for this. Open the nail polish color of you choice, then open the clear polish. Pour the clear polish only 3 drops at a time til you get the amount of polish you desire. Shake well then apply to nail. This technique is only to extend your nail polish to give you more than what you may already have. This also helps for thinning out your clumpy polish. See: How to make your old polish work better. Note: You may not need to apply a top coat doing this technique.

The Add-Ons

     Instead of buying new hair extensions or weaves & if they have lost their color just purchase a box or bottle of hair dye. Get the same color or a color close to the color shade you have. Follow the directions in the box or bottle. Blow dry, style & wear.  Note: You should be able to ask the colorist at your hair salon to make you a bottle of hair color so you can do it your self. They will charge you a fee. The service fee for it should be very low opposed to how much you would pay for getting your hair done in the salon. You will save a lot of money.

Color Your Clothes

     If your clothes have lost it's color do not throw them away. Buy color dye for clothing. It is called Rit. Rit works very well on increasing the color to your clothing. Or buy something that works the way Rit does. Simply follow the directions on the box or bottle. The results are very good. Think of how much money you can save. Rit can be found at Jo-Ann Fabrics & Ultra Foods stores.

Being Good Roll Models For Our Child Or Children

     From birth our children look up to us as parents. They listen to what we say & how we say it . What we do & how we do it. They want to be like use one day. We have a very important role to play in their lives. God gave them to us as gifts so it is important how we treat them. They bleed, breathe, cry, love & hate as we do. So make sure you live a good life, a righteous life because what you do rubs off on them more than you know. Show them you love them constantly. Even when sometimes it is hard to do (when they get on your last nerve) because God does it for us. Show them you are strong then they will be strong. Show them you cry to let them know it is alright to cry. It keeps balance. Show them how to love by loving them Gods way. Be firm yet loving when they do wrong. It may be hard sometimes according to what  kind of child you may have because some children have stronger characters than others. Be there for your child or children. Be something good to them in this cruel & vicious world we are on. 

Natural Ingredient Combo I Mix & Use For The Face & Body

       It consists of: Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, Honey, Olive Oil & Vitamin E. Use 25% of Shea Butter, 4 TBSP Honey, 4 TBSP Olive Oil, 5 TBSP Coconut Oil, & 2 TBSP Vitamin E. Mix together using a butter knife or spoon to minimize chunks. Mix until it becomes creamy. If it is not creamy add more Shea butter until creamy. Then apply to face & body. A little goes a long way. Note: Can also be worn before applying foundation. Also helps with dry spots on face. Use day & night.

T-Shirt Bracelets

     The tools you will need are: Scissors, T-Shirt (old or new), Ribbons, Stretchy Fabric, or Beads your choice & you must know how to braid. First, take a new or old T-Shirt & cut the seam. Then cut the bottom in medium strips cutting all the way up to the underarm of the shirt. Cut one end of the medium strips you have made. Gather a handful at a time & begin pulling & stretching them out but not too thin. They will become thinner after this technique. If you have stretchy fabric you would like to add cut it into medium strips as well. Pull & stretch them out also. Now begin braiding them together. Continue braiding until it is able to fit around the wrist. Pull both ends together making a knot . Finally, after knotting leave at least 2 inches of T-Shirt string. Cut off the excess then you are done. Note: For beads, after braiding slide the beads of your choice on. Using beads that can successfully fit. Then knot off both sides where the beads end or knot in between each bead. Size it to fit. Then pull ends together to fit the wrist & knot it. Leave 2 inches of T-shirt strips. Cut off excess then you are done.

Coconut Oil For The Skin

Make Old Jewelry Like New By Using Nail Polish

     Tools you will use are: New white nail polish as a base coat, new nail polish of your choice, new clear nail polish as a top coat, fine grid sand paper, old jewelry (metal earrings & metal bracelets) & pliers. First, take the fine grid sand paper and sand down the old metal jewelry taking off the old color. After it has been sanded dust off loose sand from jewelry. Then, apply 1 coat of white nail polish as your base. Use long strokes. Paint in one direction so not to have a lot of streaks. Allow to dry. Do reverse side using the same instructions. Allow to dry. Then, paint on the color of your choice on both sides. Allow to dry. Finally, when that is dry apply the clear nail polish. Allow to dry & use pliers to put jewelry back together. Note: Polish has to be new for applying to get better results. 

These Three Words

     We go about our days living on this earth not taking the time to say "I Love You" to the people in our lives. These three words are so powerful to a child, a teenager, a young adult & adult. These three words can keep a marriage together, can keep a child or children out of trouble, put a smile in someone's heart & on their face. Your words are powerful so use them wisely for good not evil

Thinning Hair

     The products you will need are: Vitamin E & Coconut Oil or just Vitamin E. Mix 25% Vitamin E & fill the rest of a small clear bottle with Coconut Oil. Slowly shake bottle so they mix well. Then apply all over scalp or only on areas that are thinning. Important: In order to see quick results you must stay diligent in applying on scalp everyday. This also helps when you have thinning hair from relaxing it over the years. Apply diligently once or twice daily. You will see quick results within the 1st week. See also for itchy scalp. Note: You can also use Vitamin E without the Coconut using the same instructions. Try not to get into eyes. If so wash hands then flush out eyes using cold water.

Do You Know Your Worth?

     How do you feel about yourself? Some people can put on a good performance for others and get rave reviews and still not know their worth. How you think of yourself will show one way or the other. Either bad or good. By not ironing your clothes or doing your hair etc, shows how you really feel about yourself. That's if you are not sick of coarse. You are worth more than you think or know. So don't put on a show if it's not the real thing. Your worth more than money. More than anything material. People do wrong to others because it's been done to them & some people just may not even care because they do not know their worth. You mean something. You can also mean something to someone & not even know it. You are worth being blessed. You are worth having the best. You are worth someone loving you in God's way on this earth. So I challenge you every morning of every day that God wakes you up to look in the mirror or lay in the bed and say " I am worth living & having the best in my life" & believe what you have said.
