Relaxation and Craziness!!!!
Hello everyone!!!
I’m currently on the Celebrity Reflection cruise ship sailing through the caribbean with my whole family. Our first stop was Old San Juan. It was really amazing to see Puerto Rico because my mom was born with a Puerto Rican mother. Our second stop was St. Thomas which was absolutely beautiful and we zip-lined through the jungle. The ocean water was so clear and turquoise that you could see the bottom of the ocean floor.
Today we went snorkeling in St. Martin and it was so unbelievable to be swimming in the ocean with so many fish around you.
It’s been so crazy but fun spending every second of the day with my three beautiful sisters and parents of course.
The beach is my favorite place in the world– all of you must get to a Caribbean beach, so put it on your bucket list!
One thing I’ve learned on this trip is to sing in the morning before getting out of bed. My sister Lindsay and I are sharing a room and we bug our sisters in the connecting room next door when we sing songs from Wicked in the morning before breakfast. Try it, it wakes you up! HA
Merry Christmas Eve! Happy Holidays to everyone and Happy New Year! The new year has so much to bring and I can’t wait to share some exciting news with you soon! Don’t forget to watch “Spare Parts” in theaters January 16th!
Let me know what YOU are up to! As always, you can find my social media links on Elizabethsmall.com
P.S. Make sure to wear Nuetrogena Ultra Sheer, Dry Touch 35 SPF sunscreen on your face every day! Trust me, it works. Thanks to Nuetrogena, my skin has remained safe in the caribbean sun! 🙂
Much Love,
Lizzy

Brush & dry easily with Goody
As a licensed hairstylist my job is to teach you the best ways to take care of your hair at home. Everything from to shampoo and condition down to properly blow dry. I have done many women with extremely thick long hair that seems to take forever to dry. They always tell me that half the time they just skip blow drying all together because of how long it takes. I can’t say I blame them. I have always had thick hair and when I was younger my mom used to just put it pigtail braids so I wouldn’t have to worry about it. With Christmas just right around the corner, the best gift you can give to those “thick haired girls” on your list is the QuikStyle Paddle Brush from Goody.
Goody QuikStyle Paddle Brush
What makes this paddle brush so unique is the microfiber bristles that help to remove water and dry hair faster. It’s like a towel and a hairbrush in one. I at times like to flat iron my hair and the whole process from beginning to end takes forever. Even though it’s short now, it still does. The other night I went out with some friends and was running a little late. When I got out of the shower I let my hair dry in the towel for about 5 minutes then took it out. I did my face and then went to my hair. I grabbed my blow dryer and my QuikStyle Paddle Brush then proceeded. The microfibers in the bristles were very gentle and helped dry my hair in half the time with incredible shine as well. Imagine that. Now we can get ready for work, holiday parties and dinner in a snap.

Mom’s & dad’s.. can you imagine blow drying your daughter or son’s hair in half the time? No more “OW MOM”!!! or “this is taking forever”. So give the gift of hairstyling ease this holiday with QuikStyle Paddle Brush from Goody. For more styling tools and accessories visit www.goody.com
