Make Me Pretty Archives • Page 2 of 5 • Totally The Bomb.com

We're just about to my one year, LuLaCrazy anniversary. I'll never forget the invitation from a friend to the on-line pop up and the absolute madness that ensued. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, let me break it down to you real quick. LuLaRoe is a clothing line that's not sold like your average yoga pants or ready to wear dresses. You can only get these from a dealer...er...consultant, excuse me. Not all patterns or styles are available from every seller. Which makes getting exactly what you want a little bit of a trial. The clothes are typically sold at in person sales in Keep Reading >>>

The Last Day I Wore Pants… (A LuLaRoe Love Story)

I remember my last day wearing jeans. It was the week PokemonGo became the thing to do. We'd planned our first big, group hunting expedition and I was really worried that my newly found love of LuLaRoe leggings would run way too hot given the extreme Texas heat. So to be safe I opted to wear jeans and my super cute, brand new Star Trek shirt. An hour into our hunting expedition I was singing my regrets. The Last Day I Wore Pants... (A LuLaRoe Love Story) You see, I'd become spoiled. Spoiled by Publishing Pants (the name which I've come to call all of my LuLaRoe leggings since Keep Reading >>>

This 2 Ingredient Hair Mask Will Change The Way You Treat Your Hair!

When it comes to hair and cutting corners, I'm all about what I can do for cheap. I'm the kind of person who goes to a cosmetology school for a price break on the fancy conditioning treatments, I bleach and dye my own hair, and I make my own hair mask. There are a lot of really great products out there, and when it comes to buying the right shampoo and conditioner, I will totally shell out $20 a bottle for the good stuff. But the best conditioning mask for your hair is probably in your kitchen pantry, and is only two ingredients. This 2 Ingredient Hair Mask Will Change The Way You Keep Reading >>>

Why I Chose To Be A LuLaRoe Evangelist

Calling myself a LuLaRoe Evangelist sounds way better than saying I couldn't handle it as a consultant. Over the last few weeks I've had a lot of people say to me, "Man! You'd be a great LuLaRoe consultant!" And you know what? I probably would be! But I don't choose to be. And there are some really important reasons why!

You Can’t Dry LuLaRoe In A Dryer, So What Do You DO!?!?!

So you bought a hundred and one pairs of leggings. Now what? First, I'd congratulate you and suggest icing your fingers, because that's pretty impressive.

Accessorizing Your LuLaRoe For Fall

This last week fall has finally hit Texas. I saw a leaf fall. That counts. Yes, we still have the AC on, it's still pretty darn hot, but a leaf fell so fall has finally arrived in Texas.

Accessorizing Your LuLaRoe For Fall I feel like fall and winter are made for leggings. Seriously. Here in Texas it gets so hot that it can feel like you're Keep Reading >>>

DIY Hair Lightener For No Damage Highlights

I will admit that I am not as blonde as I used to be. When I go to the stylist to get highlights they always say, "But your hair is so blonde!" Even though what they are really thinking is, "I have to say this to all you dishwater blondes because you can't handle the truth about just how dark your hair has gotten over the years. The problem with going to the salon every six weeks and getting them to highlight my hair is the damage.

“I’m Not Always A Hot Mess” Makeup

I pretty much live in jeans and a T-shirt. When I don't have to, I hardly ever wear makeup or do my hair. When my spouse comes home from work, I probably look much the same as I did when he left at 7am. If you stop by my house unannounced- you can count on having to give me a few minutes to locate and strap myself into a bra. I know I'm not the only one. Sometimes, though, I like to remind my spouse that I'm still the hot bitch that he fell in love with. I can still slap on my hot girl disguise and exchange my cami tank for a real bra.

Get Clean with Rosemary Soap

Soap is one of those common household items that I never think about until I'm washing my hands and discover that I've only got the "water" part of "soap and water."
