Tomorrow is National Brazilian Blowout Day, so I’m sharing my favorite products for DIY at home without the big salon bill. I don’t blow dry my hair more than once a week, and frankly it’s even more infrequent in the summer months, but when I blowout, I like to go all out. Here are the 5 best blowout products to get you Brazillian blowout results at home:…

Now that we are living and sleeping in the most extreme air conditioned conditions of the year, my face is in need of a little extra quenching. I am admittedly a little lazy about making time for masking, so swapping my night cream for a sleeping mask seemed like a viable, soothing option. There is one that stands above the rest and deserves a spot on every beauty bucket list this season. The sleeping mask you must try this summer…
You might remember back in January that I had decided (via New Years Resolution) that this is the year I am getting dead serious about skincare. I’ve always been good about the basics: never sleeping or working out with makeup on, wearing sunscreen every day. However, I began to realize that just the basics weren’t going to cut it much longer. I made some really simple changes lately that have made a big impact. Here are 5 easy skin improving…
Today I’m celebrating National Lipstick Day by sharing my top five favorite colors of all time. I don’t feel polished without a good, proper lip. Maybe it’s because I grew up with a mom who never went without it, and still doesn’t. Maybe it’s because the best exclamation point on any outfit is matching your lip color to your shoes. Here are the 5 best lipsticks of all time IMHO:…
There is one last section of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale that we need to discuss, because there are some seriously bangin’ beauty deals that are not to be missed. For example, this is the best price I’ve seen to date on my favorite shampoo, conditioner, and dry shampoo. I’m not surprised this bundle is currently backordered, but luckily you’ll still get it in a week or so. Oh, and there’s more… Here are the 5 best beauty buys at the…
I mentioned back in May that I had a transformative facial. I also noted that rather than try to sell me a slew of expensive products that I don’t have the time or patience to use, Nicole of Elite Esthetics recommended that I “just go on Amazon” and buy this serum.…
My go-to summer makeup setting spray either changed in formula or packaging recently, and I was crushed. Suffice to say, these 90+ degree temps mixed with sweltering humidity had me scrambling to find a replacement.…
I recently stumbled upon the perfect summer fragrance under $20. Don’t get me wrong, this one is still bae, but I like to rotate scents. I could not believe my nose or eyes when I saw that it was $18. EIGHTEEN DOLLARS! Think back on the most blissful tropical vacation of your life.…
Every time the summer starts heating up, I break OUT. I used to think it was just me, but after talking it over with some friends and skincare professionals, I learned that it is very common to get zits when the seasons change, especially when humidity rears it’s swampy, sweaty head. Growing up, I would put toothpaste on a zit when I felt it starting (apparently it’s a Latina thing which makes sense because we are smart and have amazing…
National Nail Polish Day was celebrated over the weekend, so I thought I would share the nail polish colors I’m wearing on repeat this season. Lately, I’ve been getting gel instead of regular 8 times out of 10 so I am really excited that so many of my favorite shades are now being made in a long wear version. Here are my picks for the 5 best summer nail colors:…
