It’s that time of year (thankfully!). When the sun is high and we don our cutest swimsuits for those summer vacations. I don’t know about you, but when summer is here, there are some definite changes to my beauty routine to accommodate this season’s weather. Frizzy hair, dehydrated skin, and chapped lips are just a […]

Source: Sephora Over the years, I have amassed quite the beauty product collection. When friends see my vanity, they often ask me how I’m able to afford so many products. The simple answer is: I almost never pay full price. Thanks to all of the online shopping hacks I have picked up over time, I […]
When you think of hairstyles in the summer, you probably think simple and beachy. And I know when I think beachy, I think waves (the hair kind). However, yanking out the curling iron, waiting for it to heat up, then taking the time to curl every single piece of hair can be very time consuming. So today, […]
With music festival season in full swing, everyone is scrambling to come up with their best look to stay stylish and comfy throughout their events.

It’s that time of year again, when the sun shines in all its radiance and beauty. However, the sun is harmful to our own beauty. As much as we may covet those tan lines from our itty-bitty bikinis, that short-term glow can cause serious long-term damage. But this is nothing new, right? Nothing we don’t […]
I have a confession to make. My name is Sarah, and I am a neutral eyeshadow palette addict. While some may simply see brown or tan, I see an endless array of nudes, champagnes, bronzes, and creams. Whether it’s a matte, frost, satin, pearl, velvet, or metallic finish, I want it all. So needless to […]
If there is one thing I could go back and tell my 19-year-old self, it would be: “Stop spending so much money on pizza and beer (love, your waist), and invest in a high-end primer (love, your face).” Primer has become a must-have in my beauty collection. At one time, I could have three or […]
I am kind of obsessed with subtle contouring. Being that I am so fair, I’m not into the whole Kim Kardashian look. I have a pear-shaped face, which means that I have a strong jaw and defined cheekbones. I can definitely get by without the extra work of contouring, but I love the definition it […]
Summer is the time to be bold and bronzed. One color that I tend to shy away from in the makeup world is blue. I don’t really feel like channeling my inner Mimi on a daily basis, but being bold means taking risks. At $34, Urban Decay’s Ammo Eyeshadow Palette is the perfect palette for […]
