Happy Thursday friends! Summer is in full swing here & the temps are climbing into the high 90’s already. I don’t change up my beauty routine too much with the changing seasons, but there are some products that make the higher temps & sunnier days much more manageable. Today I wanted to quickly share my must-haves for the summer months.

I realized the other day that, despite frequently getting compliments on my complexion, I have never shared what I do to keep my skin looking its best. My skin is slightly oily & not prone to breakouts, so I feel like I kind of hit the genetic lottery there. That being said, as I get older, I am worried about wrinkles, sun spots, & loss of firmness, so I’m more careful about my routine. Keep in mind that everyone’s skin is different, so what works for me may not work for you. It’s also important to listen to what your skin needs – sometimes it’s a little more sensitive, or needs more moisture, etc.

Happy Friday friends! I got my Spring 2019 Box of Style a few weeks ago & wanted to share, because it was a really good one! I started receiving the Box of Style in Fall 2016 & have been anxiously awaiting my new box every season since! The Box of Style is a specially curated selection of fashion & beauty finds from Rachel Zoe that retails for only $99.99. The Spring 2019 Box contained almost $500 worth of products, so it is such a good deal! And who doesn’t want items personally selected by Rachel Zoe? In support of International Women’s Day, the Spring 2019 Box contains 5 great items from female-founded brands.

Summer is a time for lighter make-up & I’ve been wearing more shimmer than I do in the fall/winter. This is a look that I work for a date night to have oysters on Tuesday night & I wanted to share it with you guys! Below is everything that I used to create this shimmery-eye summer look.
For someone who is such a beauty junkie, a have a surprisingly limited selection of lipsticks. I tend to stick with glosses or tinted chapsticks that I don’t have to reapply using a mirror because, inevitably, I will have to reapply several times a day. I also just prefer the texture of a gloss over a cream or matte lipstick. Over the last few weeks, I’ve had the opportunity to test the new Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipstick from BITE Beauty. Made with natural monoi butter and coconut oil, the liquid lipstick promises to go on creamy, dry to a semi-glaze finish, & last all day. The Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipstick is available in 18 wearable shades, from a soft rose to bright poppy.
I’ve been trying out the new Laura Mercier’s new Lightstruck Prismatic Glow Palette for the last few weeks & am sharing all of my thoughts on it with you today! The Lightstruck Prismatic Glow Palette is a limited edition palette of cream highlighters that is available exclusively at Sephora. Its 5 cream shades are designed to mimic the way light reflects & refracts to create a holographic glow.CONTINUE READING
