Anyone else usually think that a gift set is a waste of money? For almost any box sets I buy, I rarely use all the products but when I buy beauty gift sets, I always get my money's worth! Find out why here! 

Whether you’re in your 20’s or your 60’s, it’s essential to look after your skin. Your skin is your body’s protective barrier, and it has to deal with an awful lot of wear and tear. If you’re looking for ways to boost your complexion, soften your skin or tackle the signs of aging, you’ve come to the right place. Here are four failsafe solutions for bright, beautiful, youthful skin. ​

With the weather beginning to change I love to change up my beauty routine to fit the new season.  I tell you what that means for my beauty routine in this post to get your face, body,  and makeup ready for Fall 2018! 

Don't Miss This Sale! It is that time of year again! Sephora rarely does it but it is having its huge sale right now through Monday September 3, 2018!  We tell you why we shop this sale and what great hauls we find on luxury beauty items that never go on sale...except now!

​​Have you heard of this Labelle Ultrasonic Skin Spatula? It may sound like it should be in the kitchen – but if you know me (I don’t cook at all!) - then you know that the only spatula I would use would be for my skin!  The Ultrasonic Skin Spatula has been a game changer for my skin routine. I have bemoaned my skin woes before – as I have aged, I still struggle with acne, including blackheads and whiteheads and dull skin with this hot, and I mean hot, weather.  I also still struggle with dark spots and wrinkles.
 
But, the Skin Spatula has really helped me address my biggest skin concerns. Even better, I am getting great results in the comfort of my own home and saving tons of money because I don’t have to get facials each month at the spa. In just 5 minutes twice a week, the Skin Spatula has helped unclog my pores, remove excess oil, and remove black heads. It also has helped me exfoliate dry, flaky skin that I get from using so many retinol products. Additionally, the Skin Spatula makes all of my current beauty products more effective in the infusion mode because the Skin Spatula makes my beauty products penetrate deeply into my skin.

If you know me, you know that I am totally a teeth person - as in that is always the first thing I notice about a person!  As I have aged, I noticed that I really have to pay particular attention to the health of my teeth and gums. Most importantly to me, good teeth will mean I can still eat whatever I want. How many times have you heard an older person say they cannot eat an apple anymore, or nuts are out the question now their teeth are not so good? That does not have to be the case at all if we look after them properly.

Many people end up more or less sacrificing their lives to their careers. Health is thrown out of the window in the pursuit of ever-greater productivity, and ever-longer working hours. As sleep is sacrificed, caffeine goes up to help you get through the day. Similar sacrifices are frequently made, consciously or not, with regards to such matters as spending time with loved ones, working out, indulging in hobbies and side projects, and so on.

While there’s certainly nothing wrong with being an ambitious person — ambition is, in fact, a great trait to have if you can balance it properly — it is often the most ambitious people who experience the greatest blows to their health and well-being as a result of working full-time, and turning full-time into over-time.

If this description hits a bit too close to home for you, and you feel like you might need to commit to a bit of introspection and consider making a change, here are some things you should do for your well-being while working full-time, in order to establish and maintain balance.

Anyone else going blonde - or blonder - for the summer? I love getting a brighter blonde during the warmer months. But, my roots are steadily growing out (my hairdresser says your hair grows faster in the summer!) and summer travel schedules certainly gets in the way of planning regular trips to the salon.  Because I cannot pull off the ombre look to save my life and because the frizzy dry blonde apparently is not cute, what is a girl to do to keep her blonde ambitions in check this summer? I have my favorite picks for extending your blonde and keeping your hair looking freshly colored and smooth  - even if you don't have a hair appointment on the agenda!

Do you have IT? I have been using IT Cosmetics for several years and they are having a summer sale that I have never seen before! If you don't know this brand I am spilling my fav products and there fabulous sales in this post!
