Happy Monday! Work is super crazy right now but I’m hoping it’s going to start to calm down here soon because when I’m stressed at work I have a hard time not being stressed at home and I’m catching myself wishing away my weekdays, which I don’t want to get in a habit of. I’m […]

Everyday Makeup Routine
I didn’t really begin wearing makeup until I was 14 and not everyday until freshman year of high school. Even then, I mostly stuck to a little blush/bronzer, a swipe of mascara, and a touch of eyeliner. I purchased all my beauty products at drugstores and never spent too much on a single product. I […]
Beat the Heat
Since I’ve arrived home from St. Lucia it’s been hot and humid in Columbus. The temperature is slightly above average but it’s the humidity that’s really getting to me (fortunately, today is only 43% humidity but STILL. It’s 93 degrees).

When holiday shopping for beauty products, I gravitate more towards sets rather than individual products. These are normally things I wouldn’t buy for myself but I think make great gifts for […]
Favorite Makeup Finds
It wasn’t until recently that I became fascinated with makeup. I’ve been wearing it on a regular basis since 8th grade but never really experimented with it until my twenties. I catch myself wearing the same look everyday and have made it a goal to widen my horizons by playing with different products. Above, I […]
