You know I am a lover of observing the Human Journey. That's why I have the Mettalusso original entertainment "Mettie + Lunah's Forever Journey".

You also know I love media and pop culture. In watching the Scandoval soap opera all over the reality TV airwaves and VanderPump Rules, it got me to thinking a little more about what's going on here below the surface. 

Our lives run in about 10 year cycles. This is where we are with their #relationships and the time #vanderpumprules has been around.
No excuse!- for how things were handled but I am not surprised in any way whatsoever. The clues have been broadcasted for years now.
It's cool how everyone has a side and opinion- love it! IMHO, think all the behavior is a SYMPTOM and not the (total) REASON. Its been coming on for a very long time now.

This is just how us humans do things sometimes. We hurt each other as much as we bring each other joy.

Moving on as a couple- breaking up- is really hard to do. Few of us get it "right"- whatever that is.

My least favorite shade became new hack. Undertone for blush. Transition shade works for around the eyes.  Get this shade in the Mettalusso MIX THIS Contour+ Eyeshadow Palette.

National Puppy Day has been observed on March 23 since 2006. This international holiday was created to celebrate the unconditional love that pets bring into our lives while also educating the public about the danger of puppy mills.

I created tons of celebrity and corporate brands and media. Problem with much of what I created- I could not use it myself. My skin just does not love a lot of silicone in formulas.

I had to create a Primer that I could use on my skin- AND that made my makeup perform. That's the true story behind MAKEUP MANAGER. Vegan is Glam at Mettalusso- no boring white or pink boxes here!

Several times this week, I received news on how personal care products and beauty products were failing the users. In the case of moisturizing eye drops by EzriCare, the situation is devastating.

These eye drops do not contain preservatives. So bacteria grew in the product. Reports are: Fifty-five consumers in 12 states including New York got infections so severe some were hospitalized. Some went blind, and one person died.

There is also a lot of talk on Reddit about some makeup by a brand that uses a very subtle preservative system. Bacteria also grew in this product. Complaints of really bad smells coming from the product are posted everywhere. 

This is why I don't bash ingredients. 2 reasons actually. First, you might be using an ingredient that someone is bashing. That would mean they are bashing YOU. To me, that is not a good thing to do. I believe in your freedom to choose. what works for you.

Secondly, globally approved product- which many products are- use preservatives (and lots of other ingredients I see getting vilified everywhere). They have been tested. They exist for the reason of consumer safety. 

Certainly there are some of us that have bad reactions to an ingredient. Luckily, there is a lot of product to try and to find the right one that works for you.

So, when you hear a person or company bashing an ingredient, please be careful- your safety comes first. So does your freedom to choose what you want to use and what makes you happy.

Mettie + Lunah are influencers for Mettalusso. They also watch what everyone else is doing. Mettie and Moon the cat wonder if all the apologies for bad behavior make a difference anymore. 

Approved? Yes? Coming Soon? Yes. watch For It. Makeup Manager for Lids. Longwear? Yes.

Work sucks. There. I said it. We don’t need studies to prove it. We feel it. A lot lately.  The US Government wanted to know why we feel this way. Why have so many people quit their jobs? Why are so few going back to work?

Our country’s #1 doctor, the Surgeon General, went out for some answers. The survey facts are pretty intense! You are not alone.

• 84% said that something at their work caused at least 1 mental health issue.

Think this is just about workers? Think again. Executives are feeling the same way. How to help fix a work culture?

Remove the stigma. Eliminate the fear and shame of admitting feeling too much work pressure. Leaders can help by starting the conversation with their own experiences – then IMPLEMENT on what they are doing to improve everyone’s daily work life.

In short- get everyone talking and then do something about it. What’s happening for you at work? Made a job change lately. Has it helped? Or, has your current job gotten any better?

Does your work suck? There is good news. About ½ of us think their work culture has improved. At work, the glass is ½ full.

Love some extra details? Then check out this excellent Harvard Post on the recent survey and what leaders can do about it.
