First mistake: I went to a new salon I didn’t know. I had seen her work on Instagram and thought it looked beautiful, but I had never actually met her. I’m newer to the area and had yet to find a salon I loved. Since I was going in for what I thought would be a very simple cut and color appointment, I didn’t see how this would be a big problem.

I plan on doing my own makeup on the day. I’ve had my makeup done a few times before and never really loved it. I may change my mind down the road, but for now I think I want to do it myself. I love doing my own makeup and find it incredibly relaxing to get to take my time and really play around with makeup. That being said, I’m not exactly sure how I want to have my makeup look on the big day.

For me, Lilah B was one of those brands that just popped up out of no where. I was strolling through Sephora, minding my own business, trying to convince myself that I didn’t need a 17th foundation, when out of the corner of my eye I saw her; the clean beauty brand of my dreams: […]
Hyaluronic Acid is one of those terms that gets thrown around a lot in the skincare community, but how much do we really know about it? Should I be dousing my face in a giant vat of it nightly? Should I only use products that contain Hyaluronic Acid? And why does it vary in price […]
I was asked to put together a skincare routine for my aunt and explain to her where she should invest in her skincare. That got me thinking: where should we invest and where should we save? Here’s how I would spend my money if I were just starting to build my routine all over again. […]
I have been hoarding my empties for probably three months. Since I have a ton of stuff, I have been working on going through my current stash before purchasing anything new. Sol De Janiero Bum Bum Cream The is the body cream that our whole house uses. Austin loves it as much as I do. […]
I used to rely on physical exfoliants in my weekly routine. That is, until I found chemical exfoliation. Now, I rarely find myself reaching for physical exfoliators, which makes the fact that I own so many seem a bit excessive. I have ordered this list from least to most abrasive to make it a little […]
As many of you may know, I have switched my skincare routine to start focusing more on brightening my skin. I have a lot of hyperpigmentation due to the last few years of acne that I’m trying to get rid of. I’ve had quite a few people ask me which products I’ve been reaching for […]
