It has been a long time since I’ve shared my makeup routine, but now that I have a nice cozy little nook in our home after our renovation to calmly apply my makeup (I used to sit on the floor haha) I am here to share some of my staples and favorites that I’ve found after testing a ton of different makeups. I am secretly somewhat…
So before I jump into it, let me just admit something to you all – I have the WORST kissy face ever in the history of kissy faces. I think it’s because I have smaller lips, but I just cannot make them, and felt so silly shooting these, but also thought they showed the lipstick off really well! I have been on a lipstick journey…
I never really went into much detail about my big HAIR CHANGE that happened in early 2019, but I’ve had a lot of you asking about it, so I figured I’d explain more about what I asked my hairstylist for, and how I’m maintaining my new color! I decided in early 2019 that I needed a change. I felt pigeon holed into being this…
The only person more difficult to shop for than a blogger is a blogger’s husband. Matt has mostly everything he needs (minus surf boards and lots of surf trips, of course!) but the one gift he doesn’t mind receiving over and over again are razors. He ALWAYS uses them, and appreciates a new razor! My dad and brothers are the same way, so I’m going…
I have a video on my Youtube channel of how I create this messy updo from a year or two ago, but I’ve been recently getting a lot more requests on how I create the hairstyle, so I figured I’d make an updated post on it! It’s fairly easy, so here goes: You will need: A brush A hair tie Bobby pins Dry shampoo (optional)…
What you’ll need: Bobby pins Hair tie Optional Dry Shampoo 1 – First I brush out my hair, and if it feels extremely soft I will add in some dry shampoo or tease it a bit for extra volume! 2 – Grab all of your hair, as if you’re putting it up into a high ponytail on top of your head! 3 – Wrap the…
Here it is – a space I have yet to share here, our teeny master bathroom! We’re actually in the process of planning to renovate this room (coming soon!) but I wanted to share it, and also share my new favorite body wash that I’ve been putting to good use in our shower! I am a sucker for a good body wash, and I’m all…
Growing up, my mom was not a believer in makeup (she still isn’t!) so most of you who have followed from years back probably recognize that I used to never wear ANY makeup. Not a hint of it. When I was around 25 and working in merchandising waking up super early, my co-worker suggested that I start using eye cream, and wearing foundation because I…
As you guys know, we’ve been traveling A TON this Summer. My skin type is super dry, so it’s really important for me to stick to a skincare regimen, but I also don’t like to pack 8 billion different lotions and serums while we’re on the road. I was on the lookout for one serum to pack that gets the job done, and I was…
This is one of my go-to hairstyles, especially in the Summer, so I figured I would share this easy summer updo tutorial with you guys! It takes literally seconds, and looks so adorable all day (Here’s another fun hair tutorial I shared recently)! Make sure to subscribe to my YOUTUBE channel for more videos coming soon! …
One of the biggest requests that you’ve all sent my way is a video of the easy crown braid hair tutorial I am always buzzing about! This is my go-to hairstyle, and you’ve seen it tons of times on this blog (here, here and here to name a few!) It’s perfect for dirty hair, and I usually use this hairstyle on vacation, or if I…
