When you travel for vacation, do you tend to forgo your normal makeup routine? I have seen some of these packing lists that include more makeup for a beach vacation than I wear on a date night at home. Not only do I prefer a minimalist makeup routine in my daily life, but when I […]
And they are everywhere! If you have been waiting on these terrific sets to grab one as a gift or for yourself, now is the time before they start to sell out. Personally, I have been waiting to see what beautiful combinations the brands have come up with this year. Some of the best are […]
Whether your sleep was interrupted by a needy two-year-old or you just hit the snooze alarm one too many times, we have all had those mornings where we oversleep and lose the valuable time to get ready. How do you get out the door and still look somewhat put together? Hair and body – If […]
