Absolute best eyelash curler ever

This is the shu uemura eyelash curler it was designed for Asian ethnicities because they have extremely straight eyelashes that tennd to grow downward rather than straight......some days this is all I do with my tinted moisturizer and its enough.....when I want my lashes to look super long I curl each side twice apply mascara let dry and then curl 2 more times each side love this curler....I can't use my latisse now because I'm pregnant so that's why I need this curler.....sephora used to sell this curler and ultra never has you can get it on their website for right around 25$ I believe.....its worth it! Don't buy from amazon you'll never know if your getting the real deal!
Terrible pic but you can see my lashes look so long normally they look short and stubby

Amazing healthy pancakes kids love!

These pancakes are very healthy and my kids can't get enough of them they are delicious......they are made with Greek yogurt so they are packed with protein which most pancakes have close to no nutritional value.....and they are extremely easy to make I've been making a batch and it lasts about five days for the boys I make them every morning.

Mix dry ingredients
1.5 cup flour I like whole wheat but you can use whatever you like
1.5 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
1.5 tsp salt
A pinch of cinnamon ( optional)
I also like to add a table spoon of flax meal and sugar but they still are great without the sugar.
Mix wet ingredients in separate bowl
1 egg
3/4 cup milk (you can again use whatever you like soy,almond, or regular milk)
1.5 tsp of vanilla extract
1.5 cups of Greek yogurt (you can use a flavor if you choose but I just like using plain)
Beat all wet ingredients until smooth then add mixture to dry ingredients and stir all together...... make sure pan is hot but when your cooking them you have to be patient the batter is thick so you want to keep your heat low and don't flip until you start seeing bubbles be patient your first couple could burn until you get the hang of it....I also make sure my pan is really greased for a healthy alternative get the new coconut spray oil...... I also added frozen fresh blueberries to my one sons....and the great thing is these are so healthy you could add chocolate chips if your child is tough to please ....for syrup i like to use simply agave nectar(very healthy and kids don't know the difference) or fresh natural maple syrup...hope you enjoy!..

Cant wait to try this new product

These little guys (eyedews) are packed with vitamins and other great ingredients to hydrate and nourish the eye area to give them a rested and moisturized look and feel. Jenny McCarthy is a big advocate of theses too and from the reviews I have read they are amazing.....can't wait to try you just place them your eye area and let them sit for 15-20 mins and the new rejuvenated skin will be ready to reveal.....no sure if these are a gimic or if they will really improve the look of the eye area that's why I am going to try them.....you can also put them in the freezer and then apply them to your eye area for a cooler feeling that would also help any puffiness too!
