Korean Hip Bath

I have to blog about this new ritual I have discovered.  Its called a Hip Bath.  I got it at JeJu Spa just north of atlanta. Its a cleanses the vagina by sitting over a boiling pot of herbs for 45 mins.  It is suppose to tighten and get rid of toxins as well a list of other things.  She had me at tighten and I tuned her out.  $30 and you wear a cape to hold in the heat and you just bake!!  I don't know how much it worked to tighten but I loved to sweat and the herbs have to be good for my skin if nothing else.  I want to go get it weekly.  I wish I took some pictures to show.  Next time I will def take a pic of me sitting on the pot. Think the child potty with a boiling pot.  Its a sight to see that's for sure.  The things that we do for beauty.... just add this to the very long list.

I am forever changed....

Life with parole (Death sentence sought)
Nathan Perry Sliger, 19
Chady Abou Zeidan, 18
Sliger and Zeidan bought marijuana from dealer Daniel West in 2001. Later in the day they returned to rob him. They beat him in the head with a hammer and stole several hundred dollars. Plea bargains.



April 9 2001 this happened to my friend Danny and I feel like he is forgotten.... I think about him everyday.  I had such high hopes for his life.  I wanted to believe that I could help him get on the right path.  I'll never know how his story should have ended.   I now love people for who they are and understand that it is a process to become what you are suppose to be. Danny was a drug dealer and a drug user so what.... he was my friend and I loved him and I miss him everyday.  

Id love to meet some that feels this way about me...

Lent for 2010

I don't know what to give up this year.  I don't wanna set myself up for failure and I am not really into going to church so why do it.... I wanted to give up wine but I wanna drink on the ski trip and that is in a week. ie. failure.  I want to give up food... I know that is bad but how skinny could I get if I ate one day a week on sunday. I'm only half kidding! lol  What could it be.... profanity and sex were 2 very good suggestions Sex I don't really have so that is not really a stretch and i am not really cussing on purpose when I do its not something I think I can control all the time. hummm... Profanity... ie failure again..... I don't think I can do it this year.

Last year I gave up pork! I had no idea how much pork I ate. OMG everything taste better with bacon. I was successful and now i rarely eat pork.  Its like I was cured of my love of the nasty swine.  I love Wine I don't wanna be cured of my love of it.  Its such a new love affair as it is.

Happy Ash Wednesday

Christian Lacroix the exact dress from SATC    

Oscar de la Renta and YES I would wear this hat


Monique Lhuiller she is just so Hot right now i feel like she needed to make my list
What do you think of my top 3?

My skin care regimen to get an even skin tone

My name is Khalua. I am an esthetician and I adore what I do. I would love to help more people get the skin they can be proud of without makeup. If anyone has any stories to tell please share. I love to hear how people overcame skin issues. I other love is Fashion. I live for fashion and can't get enough of it.
My skin is different from day to day and I am obsessed with product so I use what i need at that time. I have a degree so I def do more that you have to. Right now my skin care system is Aveda Embrightenment System. I like lots of other ethnic people have issues with Hyperpigmentation. (Darker pigmented skin) I started the line with just the cleanser and serum and I it did drastically diminish my problem areas so I went and got the rest of the line. I am about to start a series of mandelic peels to speed up this process.

Mandelic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) extracted from bitter almond that has been studied extensively as a treatment for common skin concerns as photoaging, acne and melasma, with additional focus on use as a pre- and post-laser treatment. Mandelic acid is an aromatic AHA and its molecular size is smaller than any other aromatic AHA, making it the most effective in skin care products; however its size is smaller than that of glycolic acid, the most popular AHA in skin care, making it much less of an irritant.

Mandelic acid works on two levels: as a mild exfoliant and as an antibacterial. It has been clinically proven to help eliminate hyperpigmentation in the skin, such as Melasma, as well as acne and oily skin. It has also been shown to eliminate fine lines and wrinkles from the skin. In stronger formulas, when administered by a professional, Mandelic makes a great chemical peel and is less irritating than a glycolic peel with very similar results.
