Going back to school- the new girl behind the teacher's desk

The school year, for the local colleges, starts this week and this year I will begin on the path of a long term goal, heading back into the class room as an instructor. Adjunct today, hopefully a permanent position in the future!


I am very excited at the opportunities to work at both University of Alabama, teaching AutoCAD, and Samford University co-teaching design and graphic fundamentals for interior design.


I foresee many of stretch goals in the near future, but I also foresee the camaraderie I so miss from working on a team!




Lastly, I foresee a different way of eating! On two days a week, I have 10 minutes for lunch. Two other days, I am teaching during my normal dinner... them driving an hour back home.  I decided on soups for lunch because drinking your lunch seems easy and time- effective, and I have these fab Klean Kanteens that will hold hot soups. The challenge will be getting an endless variety of soups that I like without making the same kinds every other week. So, I will be posting my journey of soups on my other blog, Sweet Home Flavors. Please click on the blog title to see my journey!

Sally Hansen Airbrush legs- How-to

The Airbrush legs is very easy to apply.

I started with a previously lotioned leg, just in case dry skin might make this creepy.














I rubbed in to even out as seen in the above video.



And was left with an evenly slightly tan leg!

This easily removes from your hands with soap and water... as well as your legs.

These images came from my post on this product and the ability to cover spider veins. Find it HERE!

Thanks to Sally Hansen and Influenster for offering a complimentary tube of the Sally Hansen Airbrush legs for testing purposes.

Review: Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs

For starters, I'l like to thank Influenster and Sally Hansen for sending me this product, complimentary, for review!


If you enjoy testing products, you can join Influenster, too. Head over to influenster.com to join. If you are interested in purchasing Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs, then just head to your local retailer- drugstore, grocery store, beauty store.

I found it in the Sally Hansen section, but it might be with the tanning type products.

With the housekeeping over... Let's talk about the product. This is considered leg makeup, not a self tanner. So, no self tanner smell, actually no smell at all- even when it warms up (unlike self tanners). This is a HUGE plus! Unlike self tanners, this washes off when you bathe, though it is water resistant- according to the packaging. In other words, you need soap to get it off.

Like make-up for your face, this adds some color and lightly blends out flaws. It will not cover a birthmark, nor completely cover spider veins. See video. However, this is not designed to obscure every flaw so you can have a close-up on your legs broadcast on and HDTV. It's designed to blend flaws seen from at least a few feet away.

Once applied, it does not wipe off. So, kiddies who hug your knees will not wipe it off. Overall, I would give this a thumbs up. It does hide flaws, it does offer some color to pale skin and it does not smell! Here is my before and after on the spider veins with the Airbrush Legs. I apologize for exposing you to my spider veins! By the way, when I told my sister about bring picked for the voxbox, she said she loved this product. So, it is sister approved, too.
