Motivational Monday: "No Makeup Monday, HELLO World!"

Happy Monday World!!!!  This NO MAKE UP MONDAY started off  Simply Fantabulous with a workout, juicing and finally getting dressed to tackle the world.

Although my alarm went off at 6:15am,  I was truly awakened by the sun peeking through the curtains of my bedroom balcony.  How grateful am I to see another day and to feel my aching legs.  Let me tell you about these legs.. lol  Over the weekend, I started a new work out DVD with my friend Rasheeda Bibbs called Black Girls Workout Too and I am feeling the burn.... in a good way :) If you're looking for a good workout be sure to click the link below, we'd love for you to join us as on our fitness journey.

Following a wonderful workout I indulged in a juice with sweet potato, ginger, apple, carrot, celery, lemon and beets... talking about some kind of good.  If you need recipe ideas, check out my sister and friend Sandra Howse Dillard of HealthyHowse.

Be sure to post your photo's for No Make Up Monday, I look forward to seeing them.

OAN:  I love my spiritual sisters.  As I was typing this post I received a message saying "Good Morning Sisters, Sun is shining and the Son is shining, it's a great day!"

Motivational Monday: "No Makeup Monday - #LoveYourSelfie"

There’s nothing inherently wrong with makeup, but it sure is easy to get caught up in it.  To get tricked into thinking that we, as girls and women, have to wear it.  But that isn’t true!  Your bare face is beautiful!

Thanks to everyone that has supported the No Make Up Monday campaign thus far, has tweeted using the hashtag #loveyourselfie and felt beautiful even without mascara.  Society would have us to believe that natural beauty isn't beautiful, but I beg to differ. See you next Monday and be sure to share those beautiful photos with us.

"She look so good she don't need no make up on...A perfect picture painted by Jesus himself.   5'4 brown eyes needing nothing else. No makeup today-day-day-day-day-day -  No makeup today-day-day-day-day-day (today) -  No makeup today-day-day-day-day-day -  No makeup today"

Motivational Monday: "No Makeup Monday from Florida"

Ok, so I'm a Chicago girl and sitting outside mid March is very unlikely. However, if you're a cheer mom that could actually happen.  At fresh, favored and fifty, I am indeed loving the skin I'm in and the 80 degrees outside :).  This challenge has been fun, I hope that it has encouraged you to see beyond mascara and relish in your natural beauty. See you next week!

Enjoy a few more celebrity bare-face photo's.

Motivational Monday: "No Makeup Monday - Workflow"



Beauty, to me, is about being comfortable in your own skin.  For others, adding that pop of color to their lips or that extra shading to the cheeks is enough to arm them with enough confidence to get through the work day.

 

Elle editor in chief says that while makeup may give you confidence, it's best to avoid wearing makeup at your job for as long as possible.  In a 2011 study conducted by Harvard University, researchers found that women wearing more makeup were judged to be more competent and likable. So is that reason enough to hit the bathroom for regular makeup touch-ups throughout your work day? 

 

Me with my co-workers Alicia and Loretta.  We're both competent and likable ..bare faced!
