Give it Up! Kicking my MUA habit

I have a guily pleasure...I love reading reviews and NOT posting. Long are the days I haven't glanced at emakemeup and seem to care more about Makeup Alley because of its up to date speedy reviews. But in the world of social networking it got gobbled up and has thrown up the masses; I can't get a decent review on the thing. And it has been flooded by the younger (some older) crowd who seems to like to test on live product.
Pet Peeve I'll have to write about later because it is a filthy habit. I do not want to take a product that is contaminated by e. coli because of unsanitary hands. Yes, look up that fact. 100% of makeup testers even at high end make up counters are contaminated with e. coli. Please I prefer that you buy then return. Store gets credit from the company. You don't have a full makeup drawer with unused items. Let the company replace contaminated item. Eco-friendly. Sanitary (I have seen people who have just picked their nose and stick that pinky finger in cream eye liner Eww!) Get a decent trial run.

On to the point--> I am sure many would apprciate comments on thoughtful thorough reviews. Please shoot an email or comment if you want to read about a specific product. I want to get this ball rolling.

Shut Down

After much contemplating...okay after coming to a conclusion that I may never be able to keep up with a digital blog, thoughts, and the maintenance of posts I thought I would shut down this blog. Then I realized that I still love writing I just can't really be on the computer for a long time, but also being on the computer makes me wonder off topic. And I really have way too many thoughts in my head that I am faster at writing down the information I want to retain on paper or a notebook. Don't get me wrong I love the feeling of the keyboard under my fingers typing away madly, but only when I want to write something I want to whether information or a story. To get to the point... I have decided to keep it and revamp the title and blog entry style. I couldn't part with oops beauty, but may change in the future. It now stands for Only Online Personal Scribbling Beauty. As mentioned before I like to physically write down things I intend and want to remember so I'll be snapping pictures of my actual notebook. Since it's still related to my theme I don't want to change but even writing about this has me on the fence because I do write about everything. Well at least there is a warning about the ending and rebirth slash reincarnation of this blog. RIP oopsbeauty the art of becoming: my journey to becoming the best person that I can be. with peace and love I can create my ultimate temple. an alternative lifestyle and beauty blog

Sun Spots!

It's summer time, the days are longer and the sun is stronger. Even though we love to take care of our bodies just in time to hit the beach, we don't realize there is a culprit to be found afterwards in the mirror. To everyones' horror hyper pigmentation is beginning to become visible. Although we'd like to blame the sun, there are other factors out there that may cause these 'sun' slash 'age' spots. In any case 90% of premature aging is caused by UV light. I researched quite a bit and put this together for an all in one on how to get even with your skin! Go natural by trying spf without added chemicals and use the labor intensive technique of applying every 15 to 30 minutes to face and body. Your skin inside and out will love you. Remember it takes 6-7 minutes to sunburn and a full 15 to actually cause a skin burn. Alba makes a suncreen with an spf of 45 that is approved by the Skin Cancer Foundation.

Adventure Time!

I've been riding my bike from work for a while now. Lately though it's been such a hassle, I don't dare to wake up at 5:00 AM to ride my bike to work, I don't mind the leisurely ride home though now that fall is coming though. I've been having a little rough times with accommodating everyone even myself with precious love that in turn produces positive experiences. I've decided to take more hold on my life. Currently I'm learning Mandarin Chinese because I feel that I have the best tool around and I should use it to my advantage (ooh that sounds bad), but it is a person. Ha, my other half is from Taiwan, so I don't have any excuse for not learning it efficiently. Whilst doing that, I'll be saving my pennies to enroll in some online courses to help me teach English abroad. This is what I can do here and in the now to make me happy. Again this is not the main reason for this post, but for some reason this here video just made me so at ease to begin riding my motorcycle. Yes, I am the girl who has a motorcycle under her name also not knowing how to ride one...what are the odds? Just like how I own roller blades.
