Hey guys! Today was definitely a weird kind of day.. actually I started declaring my Fridays as Freaky Fridays.. weird stuff always seems to happen on my fridays now.. lol. Well for example on the way home today I saw a Falcon.YES people I just said FALCON! It was on the street blocking traffic..it was almost as big as my golden retriever.AHH.. Freaky yes. Well what was even more freaky was that this chick was trying to pick it up, or mess with it or something.. who the hell knows.. I really wish I could of took a picture of it. It was nuts!  ha. anyways.. If you havent already noticed., I have been doing some updates.  Not only on my blog but I actually started a facebook page for Onestopbeauty12! :) I'm definitely excited about that too. It is however still under construction. But check it out! :) 
 Also I know things have been going kind of slow lately with my videos... but pwweeezzz dont give up on me just yet.. I actually want to start another channel as well as my beauty channel which still will be Onestopbeauty12.. OnestopbeautyCorner. It'll be like a mommy/organizing/advice/cleaning/etc etc. I just thought it would be cool to just add some couponing videos about how I save money with coupons, my stockpile, Weight Loss Vlog, etc. So keep checking on that. Everything is underway.  I love just being myself on Youtube and showing people what I love to do.  Anyways.. My new addiction this fall is Lip color. Ahh yes . I just got Revlon Color Burst Lip Butter in Sugar Plum from Target. It was 7.00. Its a great color for fall. Its like a medium cherry color . No worries. Ill show you my swatch of it in my next upcoming video.It'll be a drugstore favorites video.and a second one on how I clean my purse. Um yes .. Every woman should have a video about how to properly clean your purse. I think anyway. But I'll talk to you guys later.

Lots and Lots of Love!

Stay warm people...I heard this warm weather wont last too much longer..But who knows maybe we will get lucky like we did last winter..ohh crap did i just jinx it?!?!..KNOCK ON WOOD!

Hey guys! just got done making two new youtube videos! should be up by tomorrow night! YAY! its definetly been a long time huh. lol. I did one for a quick makeup routine tutorial and then one on october favorites and a how to part 1 couponing video! :) hope you guys like. let me know what you think for sure tomorrow.
So I have really been into this prepping meals for a month for the freezer deal. I actually got a book from Barnes and Noble on it. Its "Everything Freezer Meals Cookbook" for like 20.00. Worth the money. It will save us so much time at night after we get off work to already have the meals prepared and to come home and just pop it right in the oven or to just warm it up! :) so excited. I mean seriously .. I know all of us have been there.. its been a 8 hour + day and then you come home exhausted and you look at your hubby and go "So what do you want for dinner?" and then by the time you guys come up with something its like 6:30 and you eventually say forget it .."you want chipolte?" Thats just too darn expensive. and not to mention extremely fattening..soo I have to make that change ASAP. If you know what I mean. So i figure taking 1 day out of the month or one full night  like 5 hours to cook everything  with a girlfriend to catch up on some gossip and then you guys could split the cost on some stock products and then BAM. Quick, Quick and DONE! That is going to be a load off. believe me .
I'm on my way to Frugal living. :) Time to start saving some money for the holiday.

Much Love,   -xJill

Oh lordy it is definitely hard to get up early in the morning.. Its my new thing though. I figure if i get up early then I could get a lot more stuff done. Hopefully that is true. Sorry that its been so long. Ive been insane busy. Between bein sick with another sinus infection.. (fun stuff) ..and workin and house work and ahhh. lol.  Well today I wanted to talk about if you could wear eyelashes to work .. If they look professional for like an office job etc. To me I would have to say yes. I mean there is some false eyelashes that are not insane long and would look ok on. I mean I wouldn't wear the beastly ones or anything. You wouldnt want to over do it.  What do you guys think?
My In this week would have to be the wet and wild new 8 pack palette. I have it in pedal pusher and blue had me at hello. Let me tell you what. .they are amazing. The quality is high def and professional . The price is spectacular too. You can only get it at Walgreens right now though for like 8 bucks.But they will probably be moving them to other stores soon I'd think. Especially with them being so popular.
My Out would be covergirl blue eyeliner. Um yeah no. It barely comes off on your skin.its one of those eyeliners that hurts when you try to put it on your eyelid. I would not recommend this to anyone. You better believe how fast that eyeliner went in the trash.
Well Ill write again later. Promise! :)
Thanks and MuchO Love,

p.s I actually just got some wet and wild liquid eyeliner.. I'm super excited to try tomorrow in black. Ill let you guys know how that goes!

Flashback to the 70's FRIDAY!

Hey Loves!
              As some of you probably already know I am not from the 70's. Obviously. I'm 23. But today I was looking online at some different fashion trends throughout the times and I was definitely inspired by the Jumpsuits of the 70's. The ones that are strapless are my favorite. I need to get my shopping going.. :) Here are some lovely pictures of some of the ones I found and love..
MICHAEL Michael Kors Strapless stretch-jersey jumpsuitYoung Fabulous and Broke Black Tube JumpsuitRoxy Flare N Stare RomperG-Star Jumpsuit
Just thought I would do a little past history Friday day! I really want to do a 70's style tutorial on hair and makeup! Hmmmm next friday maybe.. :)  By the way I hope everyone is enjoying this weather tonight. Oh how I am so freaking excited for fall to come and the cooler temperatures so I can snuggle up on the couch with my hubby with a big warm blanket...:)
          So I haven't had a chance yet to watch the MTV music video awards from last night. But I heard that Chris brown hugged Rhianna after she preformed.. Um awkward. I'd think that would be. But at least Chris brown is getting help. so that is good. So shhhh don't tell me what happens with the rest of the show. I want to watch it later on my DVR! Will be posting more goodies tomorrow! Tomorrow I want to actually go over  the fashion of Michelle Obama and Ann Romney. I think for being older women they are very fashion foward. So that should be interesting.. :) And no i'm not really into all the politics gibber gabber so no worries about me going into how their fashion tastes have something to do with the debate or something. ha. who knows.  So catch you on the flip side! ....wait did I just say that...haha.


Much Love,

formal date night! :)

Makeup review on NYX Smokey Look Kit and NYX Mosaic Powder

Hello again! If you haven't already guessed my newest brand of makeup that I love is NYX Cosmetics. Yep that's right.:)  My recent purchase from them is the NYX Smokey Look Kit.It has alot of dark rich colors that I absolutely love. You could definitely wear any of these colors together going out for a night on the town or even date night with the hubby! :) It was about 12.00 from Ulta. Pretty sure if you want good quality professional makeup this brand is the way to go! Trust me people, I wouldn't steer you wrong. I'm going to be making an eye tutorial on it actually. I'm really excited about it because I think I found a trick for lighting that I'm hoping with help with my videos. Another surprise..you ready for it?! In the palette there is actually two lip colors as well. There is two soft pinks. The only down side to this makeup ( Which really isn't a downside at all) there is not that many colors in the palette that if you are trying to do softer look. I really want to do a day look tutorial with one of the colors in the palette along with a shadow pencil that I have then show how to turn the look into a night look with some more colors in the palette. hmm. :) 
          Another product of theirs that is a must have for everyone, is the NYX mosaic powder in Paradise. This powder has a swirl of different pinks which really match well with my ivory skin tone! I love it a lot. Definitely my go to blush that I use now on a daily basis. It was about 8.00 from Ulta. They are not strong colors at all to go with any eye look of your choosing. But anyways.. this week these two products are my IN items. My Outs: Does anyone's name have a rhyme to it or anything.?! Well I have one ...and no 100 year old man I DON'T KNOW WHERE JACK IS! grr. lol.  But catch you guys later. I posted down below a picture of what the palette looks like and the powder!

Talk to you real soon.

Much Love,
