• Garnier Micellar Water Review

    (This post contains affiliate links. See my disclosure about affiliate links here.) Recently I was sent Garnier Micellar Water to review as well as the Garnier Rose Soothing Facial Mist. Although I was provided these products, my review is completely honest. I pride myself on sharing only the best products with my readers! I am a very heavy makeup user. I love my high coverage foundation, eyeliner, bronzer, eyebrow cream…. I wear it all!!! When wearing a lot of makeup, the biggest problem is removing it all at the end of the day. I’ve always had to cleanse my face multiple times because I still had makeup left behind in…

  • My Cosmic Monochromatic Look

    Who said monochromatic has to be boring?! After my trip to New York City, I was inspired to take my glam to the next level. Bright eye shadows and lips are on trend and nothing is easier than using the same color from eyes to lips. This post is sponsored by Almay to show you how easy you can achieve a mesmerizing monochromatic look. My inspiration was PINK, my favorite color! All of the products can be found at your local Ulta or online, which is super convenient and the whole line  is affordable! Prices ranging from $ 6.99-$14.99 Here is a list of what I used: Almay Limited Edition…

  • A Self-Care Night with Palmer’s

    What is a better way to reward a long, hard day at work than escaping into a hot shower and pampering yourself?…. ummmm absolutely nothing! Self care is such an important part of life but is often times overlooked by most woman. But the reality is, how can we take care of others if we do not take care of ourselves first. Taking the time to pamper yourself should be a priority, not make you feel guilty for spending some time on yourself. And a night of pampering doesn’t mean you have to break the bank by going to a spa. I partnered with Palmer’s to share some of my…

  • Morning Routine Checklist

    I’ve been there one too many times. Hitting my alarm clock for the 5th time… knowing I will run late and convincing myself that 15 more minutes of sleep will actually make a difference. Last month I decided enough is enough. I want to be a morning person and I need to try my hardest do to that. I created a nightly and morning checklist that will not only have you ready for the day but you will also get your exercise out-of-the-way, first thing in the morning! So why is it important to start your morning off right? 1. You are more productive in the day. Your morning basically…

  • My Skincare Routine

    Skincare was not something stressed very much when I was growing up. I didn’t know about toners, face masks, cremes, oils… really anything. But it wasn’t such a big deal, because I didn’t break out that bad. So when I broke out and had the worst acne of my life at 23, I freaked out! It started off with little bumps on my face, then it morphed into large, dark pimples, all over my cheeks, chin and forehead. It came at the worse possible timing. I was newly engaged, and preparing for my upcoming wedding. I didn’t want to go to the dermatologist, because I heard their medicine makes your…

  • Why Every Girl Boss Needs Shapermint

    I have always been a fan of shapewear for special events, but never for everyday wear. I was use to the compressed, short of breath, waist crushing shapewear that makes you think you look three sizes smaller. So naturally, I never wanted to submit myself to wearing it, especially when I know everyone could tell how uncomfortable I was. The constant tugs to give yourself a breath of air… and don’t even get me started about using the bathroom in these!  Thank goodness Shapermint was kind enough to send me 3 different types of shapewear to review and holy cow… they completely changed my life! Their shapewear is so comfortable,…

  • Why I Decided to Love My Body Today & Not Wait Until Tomorrow

    For some reason when the weather gets warmer, the sun is shining down, it’s that time to switch the sweater in the closet for tanks, linens, shorts AND bathing suits… the confidence of a woman is at an all time low. Now I speak from experience. I HATE this time of year. The chub-rub, heat sweats, and the feeling that my body is not good enough for shorts, tanks or swimsuits. I know I am not alone. I hear women complain about this on a daily basis. I hear the phrase “working on my summer bod.” As if their current body is not good enough for a the new season.…

  • Autumn & Avery Spring Looks

    Recently I ventured over to Autumn & Avery boutique in Cary, North Carolina. They had a sip and shop event for the social club I am a part of. This was my first time and I was so impressed by their store! They had great size choices as well as the cutest clothes and jewelry to choose from. Even if you are not in North Carolina, you can still shop from this super cute boutique, they have an amazing online store. These are some of the items I scored and you can shop them by clicking on the name of the item or the photo. 1. I am absolutely in…
