Trying Tria...part 2

DIY, TRIA, beauty, giveaway, skincareNavigate with StyleComment
I'm a month in to my adventures with home laser hair removal and while I haven't seen any results just yet I'm certainly getting very comfortable with the device and the process. I started just with my underarms since the area is small but I quickly expanded the treatment to other parts. I mean, if I'm going to go through this process I might as well emerge on the other end like a hairless cat, right?
Since I've now treated my designated spots twice I'm anxious to start seeing the hair that does grow in become more fine and the overall growth rate slow down after subsequent treatments. I have yet to experience any real pain and have not had any skin irritation so I'm planning to increase the laser's intensity from 2 to 3 (on a scale of 5) for my next session.

Stay tuned for part 3 next month and if you missed part 1 click here.

Hello Giggles Podcast! I've been really into podcasts lately (listening to them, creating them, what have you). I downloaded Episode 1 of The Couch from Hello Giggles in late January but just got around to listening to it. The hosts Jensen Karp and Sophia Rossi are not licensed therapists but that isn't stopping them from analyzing themselves and celeb guests like Haylie Duff. If you're a fan of Hello Giggles, co founded by Zooey Deschanel, you'll love this hilarious show.


The Oscars! IMHO Michelle Williams was best dressed at the Academy Awards this year. The color and construction of her gown was stunning! Image via Pinterest














Song Quest! I heard a song ages ago but couldn't remember the name of the band or the song. It's been bothering me but I finally caught it on the radio! The King & All Of His Men by Wolf Gang has now been on repeat for a week straight...

Wannabe Artist! I absolutely SUCK at drawing. I'm not good but that doesn't stop me from doodling. I ran across these amazing LYRA colored pencils while at The Frist Museum in Nashville a few weeks ago. The colors are creamy and so brilliant. My drawings are still ugly but MAN OH MAN are they vibrant!

The NWS Makeup Shakeup Party! I was asked by a group of friends to join them for a wine & cheese party and to help them with skincare and makeup application tips and product recommendations. The host set out mirrors, cups of cotton swabs and white washcloths for each guest to use and then take home. Everyone arrived with makeup free faces and brought the products they currently use so I could asses their needs. It was a fun evening and so interesting for me to learn of some common fears about makeup applications and skincare regimens. I'd love to do more of these...
