My New Addiction ....

We all know how much I love to shop online, that is no secret my friends haha. Well, while working with E-tail PR Blogger Network. I came across a great company called Showpo and the name was very familiar to me. So I checked it out and guess who has a new favorite site that they will be ordering from.....this girl!!

What I love is the story behind this company. The founder was working a corporate job and decided one day that enough was enough. She made the decision to leave behind the suit and tie world for the world of fashion. This is all too familiar to me and instantly I felt connected. During high school I took fashion courses and loved everything about the fashion industry. I wanted to go to cosmetology school, but my parents said please get your Bachelors first. I got my degree from Rutgers University after years of hard work and entered the corporate world. Which let me tell you, it isn't all it's cracked up to be. So I could understand why someone would decide to make a decision like that and never look back. That's why after all this time I'm pursuing my passion by blogging and vlogging about fashion and beauty.

The founder Jane really made the right decision because when you take the time to look over this site, you will see how creative and unique each item of clothing is. I can definitely see this website growing tremendously.

The clothes are everything you could imagine for a new and fresh online boutique. Since they are an Australian based company, the clothes are all very chic Australian styles. Which personally is my favorite style. They know how to effortlessly make an outfit look simple, but at the same time the pieces are colored beautifully. If you are looking for some great summer outfits then I totally suggest heading over to Showpo right now!

To make it easy I put a link on my blog that will take you right to the site to check them out :)



Ciao and enjoy lovies!!!!

Best Website to Buy False Lashes!!

Sometimes you might not feel like buying expensive mink lashes, but you want to build your stock of lashes especially if you are a make-up lover. Personally I think false lashes are amazing. You can get big fluttery fake lashes or you can go with light wispy lashes for everyday wear. Either way they are a great way to pull a makeup look together. My favorite website to buy lashes from is ikatehouse. I have always bought my false lashes from this website and every single time, they amaze me with their quality products and customer service.





You can choose from great brands like Red Cherry, Ardell, KISS, and so many more. What's even more amazing is that they sell makeup as well! They carry NYX <3 come onnnn you can't beat that haha!

The best news yet, they ship their products out super fast! I usually get my products within 2 days of ordering. I mean I have never experienced such fast service in my life. They package the products so delicately and in the most adorable way. I absolutely love buying from this company and I hope to see them grow and flourish!


So next time you are looking for some great false lashes, head over to ikatehouse and grab a few pairs!!


Ciao my beauties! <3

My new hair care secret....

What's better than shiny, healthy hair....NOTHING. Years ago I damaged my hair very badly from bleaching and coloring. Of course I was so focused on the end result that I wasn't paying attention to how much damage I was actually doing to my hair. At that time I wasn't really doing hair masks or taking any medicine to help keep my hair healthy. I was being an idiot!

Fast forward a couple of years and I basically had to hit rock bottom with my hair to understand how to take care of it. Now I proudly take great care of my hair and have seen how fast it has grown and also how soft and shiny it is. So let's talk about some products that have totally made my love my hair again.

First off I need to stress the importance of all-natural supplements and WATER. We all know how beneficial water is to our hair and skin. And let me tell you that all the fuss is trueeeee. Water is a miracle to my skin and hair. Supplements have also been a huge help to me. In the beginning you will probably say, okay nothing has changed and I feel like my hair looks the same. Patience my young one, these supplements take a good month to work through out system and to see results. On a daily basis I take:

- Fish Oil by Nature's Made
- Dr. Danielle's Bee Well (Bee pollen, Propolis, Royal Jelly)
- Folic Acid

So I didn't even know how amazing Royal Jelly and bee pollen is until my good friend Lisa told me about it. And it has changed my life!! Royal Jelly and bee pollen has so many benefits! It is like the fountain of youth if you ask me. I started taking it about 2 months ago and stopped halfway through because I felt like I didn't see a difference. Then my hair and skin began to look dull. Guess what this smart girl did next...I started taking those supplements again and I can already see a difference! Patience is definitely needed when it comes to supplements.

Okay, so we talked about some great stuff that help your body from the inside out, but there are also some great stuff that I like to use to nourish my hair. Firs thing you need to know about my hair is that it is naturally curly, frizzy, and dry. My hair sucks up moisture and can still look dry. The most wonderful remedy to this issue is a keratin treatment. Sadly, I can't afford a keratin treatment so I decided to check the drugstore and see what they had. I stumbled upon my new holy grail product when I received a sample of the Tresemme Keratin Smooth Treatment. Its a lotion that you put all over your hair after you shower, then you blow dry and straighten your hair to seal the product in with heat. Pretty similar to the steps in a real keratin treatment. I loved it so I went on to buy the keratin smooth shampoo and conditioner. These 3 products are the perfect recipe for shiny, smooth, luscious hair. After using these products my hair wasn't frizzy or dry at all.




I really hope you found this helpful because this has truly saved my hair and it has never been healthier. Just remember have some patience and be open to trying new products and you will be surprised by the results!

So if my sensitive skin can take the drugstore products then I'm sure you will love it too. So in this video I wanted to show you my personal technique to contouring. This exact step by step process might not work for everyone. This is because some people might want to hide other features on their face and that is okay.
