BEAUTY BABBLE// OUAI WAVE SPRAY

With summer officially begun, I feel like hair care gets more simplified. I love the look of beach hair that has a little texture and wave to it.  Some wave sprays have funny smells or leave your hair looking greasy. I have tried many wave sprays, but never seem to buy the same one again. Enter OUAI HAIRCARE wave spray. First off, this stuff smells like perfume, some may find it a bit strong, but it does not linger for long. It just smells ...

I knew I may need to bend down a lot to help the children and would also be sitting on the floor at times to help them ...

BEAUTY BABBLE// SEPHORA HAUL

I feel like I am always at Sephora picking something up; whether it’s something I need to refill or something new to try, I’m there often. I have known for a while now that IT Cosmetics is a great beauty brand, but I’m starting to obsess over their products. IT Cosmetics not only look good, but do good. Last week’s BEAUTY BABBLE, I talked about the Confidence in a Cream moisturizer. It’s truly is a life saver ...

BEAUTY BABBLE// CONFIDENCE IN A CREAM

I tried this IT COSMETICS SUPER CREAM about a week and a half ago as a 100 point sample from Sephora. I loved the sample so much so I bought the normal size! This brand continues to impress me. I use their BYE BYE PORES pressed powder and love it!  I was using this KATE SOMERVILLE goat milk moisturizer and still do use it because I truly loved it, but I tried this super cream and have been blown away by how amazing it is on my skin. ...

SPRING TRENDS// MULES

I’m all about the mules trend this spring and summer. To be honest, I wasn’t sold on this trend at first. I thought it would look weird on me and didn’t think it would go with my style. I’ll be the first to admit, that I was wrong! I’m obsessed with mules! I have two pairs that are currently getting some serious mileage these days. I especially love them for this unpredictable S.F. weather. You just never know ...
