Miracle Acne Cure - Apple Cider Vinegar



Talking all about the miracle acne cure sitting in your kitchen cupboard. But really! Using APC as a toner has changed my skin and cured my acne issues I got because of pregnancy. Hopefully it can make a huge difference for you too! ❤

I'M LOVING: HOLIDAY GIFT SETS

The other day a co-worker came over to my desk to show me a gift set she had recently purchased from Sephora. We each took turns looking at all the different high end lip products she got in just this one set for less than $60. There is nothing that gets me giddier then a gift set because you get to try a ton of new products for a fraction of the cost. I always find them to make great stocking stuffers, and it was actually through a Benefit Gift Set in my stocking one year that I found and fell in love with the Benefit Hoola Bronzer which is my pride and joy!  Since this is the time of year where all the great gift sets come out, I thought I would put together a bunch of my favorites!



1. I have heard people rave about Ole Henriksen and I have been dying to try it out! I am specifically interested in the Truth Serum™ Collagen Booster, but would love to get my hands on a little bit of everything. This is a great way to try it out without commiting to buying the full bottle sizes!
2. One of my hands down favorite lipsticks comes from the Kat Von D Line, so the idea of getting a bunch of sample lipsticks for only $39 makes my heart flutter! I NEED THIS!
3. The Sephora Favorites Superstars Box contains bestselling, head-to-toe beauty essentials! I can already spot a handful of my personal favorites, and this would be such a great way to see why everyone else is loving these products!
4. These iconic Shea Butter Hand Creams would make the perfect gift for your co-workers or girlfriends. Buy the box and hand out the creams! $8.40 a person isn't too shabby!
5. A perk-me-up lip and cheek kit in assorted pinks! I love Benefit, and this cute little number is calling my name.
6. Another Sephora Favorites box, I know, I know, but I can't help myself. I love seeing and trying out what other people are loving because odds are YOU WILL TOO! Plus this one has glamorous party essentials, packed into a festive metallic clutch.
7. I have been a lover of Bare Minerals for years. If you have been wanting to try them out without breaking the bank, this is the perfect starter kit!
8. I have been wanting to try out Glamglow for FOREVER, but the price tag has always scared me off. But this trio of Glamglow bestselling skincare treatment masks retailed at $118 for $68 might push me to try them out.
9. I LOVE PERFUME. Sephora is KNOWN for their perfume Samplers! Inside this box, you’ll find 14 samples of some of our most sought-after women’s perfumes. Choose your favorite, and then take the included scent certificate to any US Sephora store* to redeem for a full-size bottle of your favorite featured fragrance at no extra cost. So you are basically paying for one full size bottle and a TON of free samples.... WIN, WIN!
10. Buxom Lip Glosses are the BOMB. I would die to try all of them!!!
11. I have recently become obsessed with Sephora Formula X nail polishes. This limited-edition collection of 22 mini nail polishes would be a great gift for any nail lover!
12. I have seen Youtubers rave about First Aid Beauty Skin products and you can't beat the value of this gift set! $48.00 ($100 value)
13. And last but not least, the box that started it all. The Sephora Favorites Give Me More Lip. This is the gift set my co-worker brought in. A 17-piece, must-have lip sampler set of sticks, glosses, liners, treatments, tars, liquids, balms, and creams in an irresistible array of red, pink, nude, and berry shades. *sigh*

Kat Von D Tattoo Liner - First Impression Review

I have heard so much about this Kat Von D Tattoo Liner, and finally gave it try! Check out the video for my first impressions with the product!

Eyebrows Before and After

I am resurrecting an old post to talk about my eyebrows! You guys, I don't think I can articulate how much this tiny little beauty treatment changed my whole look! I guess I don't need to, the pictures do it enough justice. The other day while at work a co-worker mentioned how she had noticed a significant difference in my pictures from instagram from before my eyebrows. How much older I looked, and in a good way ;) I won't lie, it is all I can see now. Whenever I see an old picture of myself I think I look like an alien! haha Seriously! I am SO happy I wasn't stubborn and tried something new.
 
For years I have had people want to give me eyebrows, and for years I resisted the change. I credit this change to the internet. Yup, the good ol' internet. Beauty YouTube channels, combined with comments from GOMI (Get Off My Internets) kept pointing it out. So I had them done by the best and I will never look back. I needed them. After having this change for about six months now, I realize that is has changed everything for me. Not just in regards to my look and how I do my make up, but with how I feel. I feel more beautiful and more myself. I feel my age and I am more confident!

I write this because I want to reiterate how important it is to try new things. Change can be uncomfortable, but sometimes it can really be that thing that changes everything for you, for the better. I know something like eyebrows is a vain example, but really, think about what could happen if you applied this to every aspect of life. Who knows what could come from it?! Listen to people's advice, and try new things!
 



I have had so many questions regarding me getting eyebrows! I put together a little YouTube video with my story and the products I have started using! Hopefully this helps :)

Easy Elegant Updo - #30DAYSOFBEAUTY


If you have been following along with my #30DAYSOFBEAUTY, you would have already seen my Easy Elegant Updo tutorial on my YouTube channel. But I wanted to share it on the blog too, because I LOVE this hair style and I do it all the time! It is so easy, quick, and functional for all hair lengths. Well almost all hair lengths, a pixie isn't going to be able to do much with this... But you get the idea ;)
 

#30DAYSOFBEAUTY


I am attempting something a little crazy, or maybe a lot crazy? I am going to be posting a beauty related video on my YouTube channel every day for 30 days! (I started Sunday!) Let's hope I can pull this off.
 
I have loved putting more energy into my YouTube channel and really wanted to give myself that extra "push" to commit. Somehow I thought posting a video everyday for a month would help me with that? I guess we shall see! Get ready for a lot of beauty :) I already have a few videos for you! Keep up with me over at my YouTube channel :) I will be posting a new video, everyday at 6:00 p.m. ENJOY XO 

Feel free to join along and share your beauty favorites, tips, and tricks on your blog or instagram! Just add the hashtag #30DAYSOFBEAUTY
