New Hair Color! :)

Hey guys, I didn't even realize that while I wasn't typing for awhile I got my hair done. I am a natural brunette, but I decided to finally make the jump to..... red hair! Demi Lovato is my hair idol, so the color was inspired by her dark red hair that she was sporting a couple of months ago. One of my best friends (who is a hair genius!) dyed it for me and I could not be happier with it. It is the perfect color for me and I always get compliments on it. If you live in the South Jersey area and are looking for an amazing hair colorist, please let me know and I can give you my friend's information because she is truly amazing!

Let me know what you guys think! I am absolutely obsessed with it and I will definitely be keeping this color for awhile. As always, let me know what kind of posts you would like to see. Unfortunately, I am not a mind reader so I don't know what posts you want to see unless you tell me ;) Thank you so much for reading, and I can't wait to share more posts with you guys. Have a great weekend!

Back from my hiatus & blk meet and greet!

Hi beauties, I am so sorry that I have been gone for so long. There was a death in the family, I have been working a ton, and I started classes again.  I am only taking two classes this semester so I can work on finding a new job and focus more on my makeup business. I decided to take an Intro. to Business class so I can get some tips about running my own business. Glam Academy gave me TONS of insight in running a business, but you can never have enough information! I am also taking an Abnormal Psych. class, because the human mind fascinates me. I am hoping to start YouTube videos soon because I want to share tutorials with you guys. Please, please let me know what you would like to see me write about on here. Like I said before, I love anything beauty or makeup related so I want to write about things YOU all want to see. I have been trying new products recently so I will probably post a collective haul/review post this week. I am also considering starting an instagram account for makeup looks and stuff, so let me know if you would be interested in that.

Okay, so as a little welcome back post I want to share something really fun that I just did! The other day my friend Kristen and I went to Wegman's for a blk water tasting/meet and greet. If you aren't familiar with blk, it is a water company that combines fulvic acid with the water which actually makes it black in color. Not only is it good for you, it tastes just like normal water and is insanely cool! The Manzos and Lauritas from The Real Housewives of New Jersey are involved with blk, so they went to Wegman's in Cherry Hill for a meet and greet. I have been a huge RHONJ fan since season one, so I was so excited to finally meet the people that I watch on TV every week. At the meet and greet were Albie Manzo and Chris Manzo, their mom Caroline Manzo, Jacqueline Laurita, and her husband Chris Laurita. There were a lot of people there to meet them, so we ended up waiting in line for about an hour and a half which wasn't too bad. This one lady even told me that I looked like Caroline's daughter Lauren. People have told me that before, but it was cool to be told by another fan of the show.

When we finally got to the table where they were all sitting, they all signed our bottles and were talking to us. Every single one of them was so incredibly nice. They thanked people for coming, when really they were the ones that should have been thanked. They took multiple pictures with everyone (which is rare) and they were just all so welcoming. It was such a great experience and I just wish I could relive it over and over. I will definitely be attending another meet and greet if they are ever in the area again. If you ever see that they are in your area, I would definitely recommend going and meeting them if you are a fan because I had such a great time. I definitely want to buy endless cases of blk and a blk t-shirt! If you would like to check out the blk website, purchase blk, or a blk t-shirt make sure to click here.

Thank you so much to the Manzos and the Lauritas for making this experience so amazing and being so nice to every single person. I wish you all the success in the world!

As always, e-mail me at glitterocity@gmail.com if you have any questions. I hope you all have a great week and I will be posting in a few days!
