12 Oct REALHER Makeup I’m Loving for Fall
I wrote about REALHER makeup before HERE, and was excited to promote a brand that I enjoy wearing that also has a greater pupose to their brand.
Bye Bye Gallbladder
First, friends, let me say, I am grateful for all of the well-wishes I have received on here and social media. The Gallbladder surgery was my first surgery and I was a bit nervous. All went well with the Laproscopic procedure, and I did alot of resting , reading and watching television for the first week. ( Thursday). I really takes about 2 weeks to feel better and a bit more to get the energy level back. I just thank the Lord I didn’t get the same open surgery my mom did over 20 years ago. The gas pain and bloating caused significant pain and I felt like my tummy looked 2 months pregnant, or else had a big food baby! The Co2 they put in your body, in order to see your organs for surgery does dissapate into your tissues, so at the 1 week mark, I am back to normal in that regard.
I have to stay away from greasy, fatty foods, which I don’t eat much of anyway, but I do love my cheese. Looks like its going to be 2percent or soy milk, along with low-fat cheeses. Both the surgeon and my GP beleived my case was hereditary, as my mom and dad both had their Gallbladders out.
I was told to do some short walking. Since, I was mostly in my pjs and nightgowns for the week, I did what my mom did at home when it was too cold…( in this case, I wasn’t ready to go down the street) I walked in circles from the Great Room, kitchen, and Living Room. I am sure it looked a bit crazy. The dogs were staring at me!
Since it is taking a bit out of me, energy wise, I am posting this week, as I love writing and this has given me something to work on while recovering. I see my doc in another week to look at the stitches and to talk about when I can work out again.
REALHER makeup
Before the surgery, I was gifted some makeup products launched recently by REALHER makeup. Who doesn’t love a great matte lip color?
I realize with masks, we may not be wearing lipstick as much these days, but we don’t wear them 24/7.
It was nice to have a pick me up and also makeup to try by a brand I believe in. They are cruelty-free, vegan and paraben free.
They are lovely matte colors and my favorite is I am Enough, a warm nude, for everyday wear. The red is also sensational!
“I am a Godess” is a dark plum, which I will try and mix with another shade to lighten, or wear when I want a dramatic look.
You have seen “I am Amazing” in a lipstick before on me here in this post.
This is “I am Amazing” in lipstick form, and I have also received the matte lipstick below I do like the brightness of this color.

Matte lipstick- a favorite of this collection . a warm nude. “I am Enough”
Encouraging phrases- “I am Brilliant“- a matte pink mauve
Matte lip color- a dark red with ( blue undertones, which I prefer over the orange-red) “I am Tough”
When I look back over the last 10 years, I can say that with certainty! I have dealt with Pudendal Neuralgia ( impingement of the pudendal nerve in the pelvis), gone to lengths to find an EDS diagnosis, and now am dealt with surgery. Life does throw you challenges!

Posted at 21:43h, 12 OctoberGlad you have the surgery behind you and are on the road to recovery. My daughter consulted a medium about this time last year who told her I would have gall bladder surgery in the next year or two. Hmm. Will try to remember to walk!! And to avoid heavy, greasy food which I generally do anyway, as well.
I love the orangey color – I am Amazing? I had a lip tint several years ago that was similar in color and one of my favorite shades to wear. It looks lovely on you.

Posted at 09:50h, 13 OctoberThank you Leslie! The walking does help move the Co2 gas, but I think most gets absorbed through your tissues. I love these shades too and it is fun to try ones that I will experiment with as well. Enjoy your week!
