EYES | Watch this Video Best in Beauty – Eyes | False Eyelash Tutorial
–EYESHADOW LOOK: I started with Milani Shadow Primer . I dusted the entire lid with the Cream shade (M-126) from this MUFE Palette. Using a windshield wiper motion, I applied the matte, light brown shade from the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette. On the lid, I packed on the color M-806 from the MUFE. From the Urban Decay Smoked Palette, I used the blue shade (Evidence), and the dark brown shade (Backdoor) to work on the outer V. At the end, I went into a different MUFE Palette, and dusted the vibrant Peach shade (I-804) over top of the pink lid shade

10/09/2017Thank you Lisa! I love your attitude! Enjoy the planning season!!
Adina
10/07/2017This video was fantastic! Love your tips for an organized, well-planned, and enjoyable Christmas season.
Would you add a ‘yearly budget’ to your list of videos, please. I find that watching what other people budget for, and how they go about the planning is helpful in refining my planning habit.
Again, thank you for this wonderful series.

10/09/2017Thank you, Adina! I will absolutely add a yearly budget to the list of videos to come! Hopefully in the new year I can get to that one!! Blessings! Have a great day!!

10/07/2017I’ve so enjoyed your videos- discovered you a couple of weeks ago. You have a wealth of information that has been most helpful- using some of products you suggest, found the testing brush to be the perfect answer in my hair styling, and absolutely love your organization and strategy! You are getting me on track. Look forward to your budgeting video and more of your time mgmt tips. Your personality is perfect for motivating me! 💙Susan

10/09/2017Tracy, I just recently found your YT channel and have watched both your videos on Christmas planning. I am definitely going to use the envelopes as I have a tendency to over spend. Thank you for such inspiration! I am going to go on a binge watching your other videos! I am not on Snapchat but am on Instagram at @lcurtisrn. So glad to call you my new friend!
tracyhensel
10/16/2017Hi Linda! I am happy to hear that you found me. The envelopes will definitely help with the overspending issue. Glad to have you here!!

10/11/2017Tracy, question. I know in your videos you mention that you do most of your shopping online.
Do you use the money you have in the envelopes to buy gift cards to make purchases online?
Or do you buy those gift in the store since you are using cash only?
tracyhensel
10/16/2017Yes, that exactly correct!!
Casey Copeland
10/23/2017Where did you get your slim Christmas trees that you had last year? I kine of remember from snap chat that you got them from Home Depot.. is that correct? Can you send a link to buy that one or a similar one? Thanks!
Casey Copeland
10/23/2017kind of* oops
tracyhensel
10/23/2017Hi Casey! You are correct! Here is a link to the tree. We have 2 of them. One in my office and one in our bedroom. https://www.lowes.com/pd/GE-7-5-ft-Pre-lit-Aspen-Fir-Slim-Artificial-Christmas-Tree-with-800-Constant-Clear-White-Incandescent-Lights/1000275733 Enjoy the rest of your day!!

10/26/2017I’m wondering about the teacher gift this year. Our boy is 11 – just like your Chloe – and here in Australia he is finishing primary school, starting high school next year. More importantly, he has autism and while there have been several special needs teachers here at the school who worked hard with him, I specifically want to gift the special needs aide because she has been with our beautiful boy since his very first day and she has patiently and lovingly guided his steps, truly I think she loves him almost as much as us. I just don’t think that a box of chocolates or a gift card will even BEGIN to express how we feel about this wonderful woman. I was thinking about a simple charm on a neck chain. Nothing big and flashy but just something a bit different. Argh! Decisions!!
