Refocusing...

The new decade has come and already the days are flying off the calendar. And as many have noticed or can tell, I haven't been shooting much of lately. My most busiest times were between December 2007 through August 2009. No, I haven't given up on my art. No, I don't plan on doing that anytime soon.

I am re-organizing my focus and niche. 2009 was a long, arduous, and the most painful year personally but I have overcome that to become a stronger person. I am realizing that I still have a purpose to serve. That purpose is becoming more and more clear each day. As the light shines on that purpose, the closer it is to be revealed to the world. I have some major things underway that I have kept tuck away for the right time. In the meanwhile, you know where to find me, reach me, book me, talk to me, etc. I hope this year is going well for all as it has for me. Be you, do you and always try something new.

Ciao,

CoCo.

Vendor of Choice - Belle Butters

Belle Butters
So as many know, I'm a huge fan and supporter of local artists and talent. I've known Miss Tasha B. for about 6 years now and she has recently decided to venture into her own line of hair/skin care products called Belle Butters. Belle Butters is a composite of essential oils to help protect, repair and strengthen your hair and nails. Belle Butters has a lite citrus scent and is very light on the skin and hair. I purchased some from her Monday and have been using it everyday on my face and skin. I was a little nervous at first as I do have the skin disease eczema and sensitive skin. One of my main concerns was an allergic reaction or a skin breakout. Neither of which happened so I am thankful for her use of natural ingredients that are safe to use on sensitive skin. And I would like to add that I really like how Belle Butters restores my inner "buttah" *tee hee*. My skin is GLOWING!

If you would like to purchase Belle Butters, an 8 oz jar is $10! Belle Butters is handmade by Tasha herself so a lot of pride and dedication goes into this lovely jar of goodness! And her pricing is very affordable considering the natural ingredients used and the time and effort she places into making Belle Butters. Here are the ingredients:

100% Unrefined Shea Butter
Coconut Oil - Conditions and repairs damaged hair. Leaves it shiny and soft.
Sweet Almond Oil - Prevents breakage, leaves hair shiny and stronger.
Jojoba Oil - It is anti-bacterial, moisturizes and conditions hair.

Chamomile Flower Extract - Improves the health of your scalp. Keeps it free from infections, bugs and lice.
