Where I Do My Beauty …

There is something really satisfying as a blogger entering a store, swatching the latest, paying for the item, having it wrapped and put into the pretty shopping bag. Even watching the FedEx guy bring your package to the door makes a girl squeal with excitement (well I know I do, I even clap my hands super fast). I’d have to say I do my fair share of both only because of the area I live in. The only beauty stores near me are Sephora, Macy’s, and a Ulta. The closest higher-end mall is about a little over an hour from me…

Kate Somerville Goat Milk Cream

I searched, I found, I tried and conquered! I have found my HG moisturizer and can we talk about the pump for a minute?! This has got to be one of the coolest features I’ve come across since finding Zoya’s nail polish remover. You simply just push down on the white bit and the product comes out the middle and once you let it go it closes up preventing contamination. Kate, you and your team are just brilliant! The moisturizer itself I’ve been using day and night with amazing results. My skin has seemed to clear up, it’s hydrated and…

Nail Care With Deborah Lippmann

I was at Sephora not too long ago looking to spruce up my nail care routine when I came across these little glass bottles with pipets. I’m not even going to lie, I thought they looked super chic so in the basket they went. Deborah Lippmann is known for her amazing glitter polishes which come in an array of colors but when it comes to nail care, I really haven’t heard much. I’ve been using them for a few weeks now and I am so happy to have picked them up! DL 2 Second Nail Primer – This stuff really…

Diptyque Candle Sizes

It’s confusing if you’re new to Diptyque as a brand and don’t know where to even start. Let me tell you that they’re truly worth the hype and are a great luxurious treat. Now if you don’t have a store or boutique nearby like myself it can be hard to get something you haven’t seen in person. They have so many scents to choose from and different sizes to start out with. I’ve personally been in the same situation and then the obsession took off but I’m here to help all the Diptyque Virgins . . . Extra Mini Size…

Le Blanc De Chanel Sheer …

Primer can be a hassle to apply everyday or and added step that you really don’t have time for when you only have 5 mins to get ready, especially when a pump isn’t included. This my friends will change all of that, healthy plump skin in a bottle coming right up (again pump-less but it’s all good)! This primer isn’t sticky or too heavy, it’s almost like adding another moisturizer over top of your regular skin care. It also gives you a natural healthy glow instantly without any shimmer. The formula is pretty magical and makes your foundation adhere better…
