    The BEST Non-Toxic Purple Shampoo

    This post is in partner with Kavella. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. It is no secret that I like to keep my hair as blonde as possible! Because of that, I spend a pretty penny at the salon to achieve this look every couple of months. Right now, my hair is probably the blondest it’s ever been and I try to keep it as icy as I can between trips to the salon. If you color your hair, you know the struggle is real when it comes to keeping it looking fresh! For the last 8 years I have been…

It’s also time to take inventory of summer makeup and skincare and transition into fall colors and products for more hydration.

    Acne Struggles? Try this mask!

    I have struggled with acne my entire life. Acne on my face, neck and chest is something that has always been an issue on my skin but I NEVER took the time to even ask why this could be. A few years ago, I decided to dig deeper and that’s when I associated a lot to my personal care products, my diet and then stress. Stress is the constant factor in my acne as of right now as I’ve worked on all of the other issues. I have had a lot of friends and family message me asking what to do about their “mask-ne”(acne as a result of wearing a…
