F.A.Q.

Q:  What does being a “face” entail?
A:  Our Lavish Faces will help us by having their before & after photos taken, taking some specific marketing photos & helping create a ‘buzz’ about Lavish.  The photos will be sensitive to your personal comfort levels so we’ll be looking for all ranges of clothing (or not) to fill our spots.

Q:  How am I picked?
A:  Our Lavish team will be choosing the Faces soon, we will notify you via email ASAP

Q:  What will I have to do?
A:  We will ask you to attend 1 photo session (several dates to choose from) and also attend our 2nd Anniversary Party at our studio, April 5th at 6pm.  Clothing requirements will be dependent on your comfort level but we are asking for each “Lavish Face” to have 1 black outfit & 1 white outfit.  Again, “outfit” can be as much or as little as you’re comfortable with!  We’d love to see a range from a black string bikini to a black shirt & pants!

Q:  What to the chosen Faces get for doing this?
A:  You’ll have access to our personal hair stylists, makeup artists & photographers for your photoshoot- take this time to pick their brains about any beauty questions you have!  We’ll have swag-bags for each Face that will include makeup, hair goodies, and tons of freebies from our favorite places!  Each Face will also receive a framed 5×7 photo from our shoot <3

Any other questions can be directed to mylavishparty@gmail.com, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obviously all fresh fruits & veggies

Roasted red Pepper Hummus, yum!
Beanitos Bean Chips- are you sure these aren’t tortilla chips, they’re amazing! $3.49 (Cub)
Quakers Carmel Rice Cakes Mini- great when you have a sweet or crunchy craving
Van’s Gluten-free rice waffles (found at target)  Really good if you’re craving waffles & are in a hurry

Coborn’s Delivers (my favorite thing ever!)  Has an ok selection… Bread, chicken nuggets, some Amy’s meals.  It’s worth it in a pinch if you can’t get to a better selection sooner!  (next day delivery for $5!  I can get you a $20 OFF coupon if you send me your email! carissagailnielsen@gmail.com)

CUB Fridley:  They’re under construction right now so the GFree section keeps getting moved :/  Pretty good selection

I’ve drank a lot of water & not burned a lot of calories and I’M STARVING!!!  I track everything with the App “My Fitness Pal” (friend me & we can help each other stay on track user:carissanielsen)

I’m going to go drink 8 more glasses of water hoping to kickthis headache & barking stomache!!!!!  Tonight I’ll start my Naughty & Nice lists for y’all!

As of December 26th at 1:00pm, I’m attempting to go Gluten-free.   There is a lot of research showing connections between Endometriosis & Celiac disease, and I’ve been told by numerous ladies that going G-free made a huge difference in their bodies!

SO… I went to the grocery store yesterday to get some new food since almost everything in my house is now no-good for muah.  I made the mistake of taking the normal path through the store instead of making a new path b-lining it to the G-free shelf.  By the time I had looked at all our regular foods, all I had in my cart was a cucumber & some blueberries.  Ugh.  Melt down time.

An hour & some frustration tears later,  I found some stuff that filled my cart.  I’m going to blog about the foods & all my symptoms so I can keep track.

Last nights hunger pains….
Dinner: Chicken breast with corn… I had 3 servings of corn because I was still starving!
Late snack: Carmel rick cake minis (super good!)  8 per serving…. hmmm…good thing these are low in fat because I think I ate half the bag!

Before I went to bed, I made some hard-boiled eggs & packed my food for my 13-hour work day.  WISH ME LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Starting at $36 for a set of 25 (including envelopes)
