Happy Friday! I’m so glad the week is finally over (though I won’t lie, I know this weekend is going to fly by and that bums me out.)

Today I’m not going to be writing a whole lot because I have a new video! My friend Erica from Coming Up Roses had the idea to share our favorite Spring Makeup Looks, so I filmed mine and am sharing it today! I grabbed my new Too Faced Sugar Pop Palette that I picked up during the Sephora sale because the colors just scream spring.

Celebrating MOMents of Beauty

April 17, 2015

Complimentary Service: Complimentary services were provided in exchange for this review. All opinions are my own.

My mom and I have what I consider to be a unique relationship. As you may know, I’m an only child, and I would say that my mom played the role of sibling in addition to mom. We fought, we disagreed, we had fun times, and we had… well, my teenage years. Despite our years of “difficult teenage behavior” I consider my mom to be my best friend.

I don’t know how many times my school friends told me how weird it was that I talked to my mom the way I did. What others considered talking back to their parents was just normal for me. I was always taught to be an independent and free-thinking individual, and I guess that carried over to how I interacted with her too.

I’m pretty sure it’s no secret how much I love beauty products.

I always have more room in my heart (and in my house… kind of) for more nail polish. ;)

10 Must-Have Travel Beauty Essentials

April 10, 2015

Looking ahead to spring and summer, I’ve already been on a few weekend getaways, and we have some longer trips planned that call for some serious packing. And it never fails, I almost always forget something vital in my beauty routine and then I suffer. Anytime I’m traveling by airplane I absolutely need gentle cleansing wipes or cleanser. And when I’m going somewhere warm, of course, I need some sunscreen. I almost always forget one of these things and then am stuck using whatever the hotel provides or what I can grab at the drug store. Yikes.

Face Serum: It’s Not Just For Old People

March 13, 2015

Press Sample
It’s not often that I do straight up product reviews anymore. In fact, I don’t remember the last time I did a review that wasn’t in some listicle type format. BUT, I’m finally a grown-up skin care lady – I’ve already adopted eye cream (last year) and now I’ve adopted serum too! I was one of those doubters… thinking eye cream was for “old people”, and I lumped serums in there too.

What was I thinking. Eye cream and serum are to prevent you from looking old! Duh.

So, now I’ve brought serum into my skin care “wardrobe” if you will, and I don’t know why I didn’t try it sooner. Don’t be fooled by the (low) price, this NeoCell Collagen Serum is pretty awesome. And the NeoCell Refreshing Herbal Mist is fantastic too. Read on to find out why I’ll continue to use these items!
