Today’s post is definitely skewed more towards a smaller segment of my audience. On the whole, I tend to focus on product reviews that would work for a broad audience, but I’m also a proud member of #teamnatural. And this is also why I usually don’t cover hair care products, unless it’s something so amazing … Continue reading The DIY Silk Press

If you live out here in the Northeast, you know that it’s been painfully hot this summer. And just as NYFW kicked off earlier this month, the mercury spiked to the 90s for one last heat wave before Fall officially arrives. Then over the weekend, the weather dropped down to the cool 60s—and then it … Continue reading Staying Hydrated with Hyaluronic Acid from Timeless Skincare
Swatch Wednesday is back and I have a “new to me” beauty brand to present! Earlier this summer the team at Profusion Cosmetics sent me an array of goodies from their brand to test. And clearly my summer was busy as I’m just now getting around to swatching and recording my thoughts. So, the main … Continue reading Swatch Wednesday: Profusion Cosmetics!
As a beauty influencer and bridal expert, I often find myself fielding all types of impromptu Q&A sessions when I go to events or even when I’m relaxing at home while perusing Instagram. And of the top questions I’m asked, it’s a tie between “how do I find an amazing dress on a budget” and … Continue reading Bridal Beauty: Should You Do Your Own Wedding Makeup?
So, IT Cosmetics has been slowly releasing some amazing products this Summer as part of their Fall ‘18 product line up.

Not only will your future spouse thank you for not scratching them with flaky lips, but your makeup will … Continue reading Bridal Beauty: Lip TLC with Sara Happ
Late last month I attended IT Cosmetics’ launch event for a new CC+ cream formulation that was launching exclusively at Sephora. Of course, I always love IT Cosmetics events, but I’m also a fan of their products. For the uninitiated, IT Cosmetics offers dermatological tested skincare and color cosmetics products that pull double—even triple duty—to … Continue reading Bridal Beauty: IT Cosmetics’ Matte-defying CC+ Cream
If there’s one thing I remember well from my wedding planning days, it’s that my stress levels were often on level 1000, especially the closer I got to the big day. So, anything that I could do along the way to make my life a little easier and achieve a tiny bit of “ohm” or … Continue reading Bridal Beauty: Quick Zen in a Spritz
So, last week I put together a roundup of micellar waters. The focus of course was on micellar options that don’t dry out your skin - so in other words, a micellar that pulls double duty. This week, I’m focusing on toners. Now, when I was younger I didn’t use toner. I didn’t even realize … Continue reading Ultimate Toner Pore-fection: A Beauty Roundup
Micellar water isn’t necessarily a new invention in the makeup and beauty world. I first heard about them back around 2012 and even then they were already a staple in certain circles.
