Mom Hack

 So I have thick very wavy hair that takes about forty five minutes to one hour to straighten with a flat iron. I was blown away at how this tool magically gave me a salon quality blowout under 30 minutes. Considering I work and have two small children in the home, I have no time to get ready. When I come across any tools that help me cut down the amount of time it takes for me look presentable, I am so down. MOM APPROVED! If you have any tools that you can recommend please let a Momma know 🙂

Sephora has the best free gifts!  Love being a VIB !! Picked up a lip scrub,  lip mask & a boscia cleansing sponge 🙂 The lip scrub tastes so good & it’s edible 💋💋💋💋 Having soft lips is everything 💋💋💋💋 I bite my lips a lot so scrubbing them & masking them is important for me or else they just look super crusty.

“The true secret to the geisha’s radiant skin is gentle, daily exfoliation. The Polished Classic Rice Enzyme Powder softens, exfoliates, and conditions, revealing baby-soft skin every day. I am delighted to tell you that your purchase of a Tatcha skincare item will send an incredible girl to school for day through our Beautiful Faces, Beautiful Futures partnership.”—Victoria Tsai IMG_6712

Based on the Korean double cleansing method, Solid Cleansing Oil combines the performance of a cleansing oil with the gentleness of a cream. It’s enriched with seven Korean herbs—green tea, licorice, Japanese knotweed, skullcap, rosemary, chamomile, and centella Asiatica—that have long been used in traditional Korean beauty rituals. This formula transforms twice when used. First, it transforms into an oil upon contact with the warmth of the skin to help dissolve impurities on the face, then when rinsed with water, it transforms again into a silky lotion to cleanse skin perfectly and leave behind a protective film. Skin feels perfectly cleansed, refreshed, and free of makeup. SMELLS SO GOOD reminds me of the Korean Spa

Patchology Review

I am super excited about this ( jumping up & down) #Patchology sent me 3 sheet masks & a jar of eye patches !!!

I love their masks & eye patches because they are amazing & work instantly. They leave my skin so soft & hydrated, perfect for getting that smooth canvas before applying makeup or for that special event you have to go to. Also great for at home use to make your skin look it’s best; I recommend using a mask at least once a week. (Your skin will thank you) One thing about me is when I love a product I will express my love for it & I will share it with you. I know how hard it is to find something that truly produces results so when I find something that does you guys are the first to know about it!

You guys are truly the best & thank you for reading my blog

I love sharing my favorite beauty products with you 🙂 IMG_4715

My husband has major crows feet lol & these eye patches really smooth them out. With continued use the crows feet will disappear. I’m hoping he listens to me more often & gets into skincare (fingers crossed)

When I use the eye patches my under eye area gets brighter & my concealer goes on smooth without creasing.

Next time I need to add MAC cosmetics soft ochre paint pot underneath the eyeshadow to make it pop more. If you put this eyeshadow on bare skin you won’t get the full effect.
