I recently revamped by curly hair routine to get the best curls all while keeping things simple and easy. This will be especially important with a newborn on the way as I imagine I won’t have much time for showering, let alone a full hair care routine. I shared my full curly hair routine on my YouTube channel, which you can checkout below.

simple date night makeup
This post contains affiliate links and items received as employee gratis. Getting ready for date night is always fun for me. I love taking the time to play around with makeup I don’t usually get to wear to work on the day-to-day. At the end of 2019, I did a big declutter of my makeup collection and recently reorganized the setup to focus on using the products I already own. I moved all my makeup into the my Ikea Alex Drawers with minimal options set out on my vanity area. This forces me to open the drawers and look at everything I own when it’s time to get ready. For…

makeup declutter | 2019
As the year winds down, I did a full declutter of my makeup collection. I want my makeup collection to be currated and truly enjoy everything I’m using. Check out the declutter on my YouTube! After filming this, I’ve decluttered even more that I found I no longer needed or brought me joy. I try to declutter through the year, so I expect that this trend will continue. Looking forward to be more mindful with my purchases in 2020.

fall beauty favorites | 2019
I’m back! Summer was crazy busy with our wedding planning and all the activities that come along with a wedding. Now that all of that is wrapped up, I’m finally able to set aside some time for my blog and hopefully my Instagram which has also been neglected. I thought I’d get back on track with some of my favorites from over the summer and beginning of fall. A lot of these makeup products were used on my wedding day. Something else that I’m trying to be mindful of lately is purchasing cruelty-free makeup and beauty products. I’m not 100% CF yet, but I’m taking steps to get there. The…

my natural deodorant recommendations
About a year ago, I shared that I had switched to using a natural deodorant in lieu of an antiperspirant. Well, that only lasted until that one product ran out. So I switched back and got used to the sweat-free life again. After some more consideration, I decided that switching to a natural deodorant is only going to benefit my health and my future self. Natural deodorants have become more popular over the past several years due to the possible side effects of using aluminium-based antiperspirants. For me, making the switch came down to the aluminum being a possible hormone disruptor, which I’m uncomfortable with as it can impact fertility…
