There are so many concealers on the market and while I have tried so many different formulas, there are only a handful of ones that I work well for my ever changing mature skin. The needs I had for a concealer 10 years ago in my mid-30's is not the same needs I have now in my mid-40's. Concealers are one of the biggest challenges because I want something long wearing and creamy without turning cakey midday or settling into fine lines. I had heard about Sarah Creal Beauty on social media this past year and learned that it is

Coat (similar) | Tee (similar) | Jeans | Shoes | Bag (similar) | Sunglasses | Earrings (code: MAREE-15) Friday Finds 1.10 1. I live somewhere that gets the four seasons of weather so I am always looking for bad weather shoes that are still chic. LOL I just ordered these boots and love that they look like regular fabulous boots but are water-resistant! (they are a core style and will be restocking FYI!) 2. I have a few pieces from this small LA based brand and absolutely love everything! I just ordered this houndstooth cardigan and know that it will

It can be difficult with all the makeup out there these days to determine which products are worth the money and which are not. I've been in the beauty industry for nearly 20 years and been blogging about beauty for 12+ years so I have tried a TON of makeup products. I've tested super high end luxury products and budget friendly drugstore products. While a higher price tag does not always equal better quality, there are a select handful of higher end makeup products that I definitely feel are worth the investment. Products that I go back to time and

There are so many different denim styles available right now and there is definitely something for every person's preference. Regardless of trends, always go with the type of denim you feel the most comfortable in and will wear the most. I have a variety of different denim styles in my closet that I rotate between though I am really enjoying the resurgence of wide leg denim because they are SO comfortable! LOL But if you need some ideas of what jeans to wear with the boots in your closet or possibly how to style your boots with jeans, hopefully this

I have come to love winter and the cold weather because I love to be cozy. Cozy at home or cozy when I go out. I actively seek out clothes that allow me to be super comfortable when I go out but still look cute and put together. My biggest tip when dressing casually for winter is to wear matching sets. There are so many chic athleisure brands and pieces available now and you will instantly look put together when you wear something that matches. Also, I still stick to the basics when it comes to my winter wardrobe. Neutrals

Fenty Beauty always seems to be on the pulse of makeup and constantly creating products that consumers really want. The shade range is fantastic (over 40 inclusive shades for every skin tone included in their complexion range) and from what I have tried so far, their products are always so effective. The brand was founded by Rihanna and she is still the face of it. I'm always hesitant towards celebrity brands because so many fall flat or go out of business soon after launching. However, Fenty Beauty has stood the test of time and continues to stay relevant in the

Sometimes products appeal to me immediately while other times I don't end up trying something until long after it has launched. Tinted lip balms have become a phenomenon in the beauty industry at the moment and so many brands are putting out their version. I had heard rave reviews constantly about the Tower 28 Beauty LipSofties and finally ordered one of their holiday kits that contained four shades to try. After the first swipe, I instantly understood what everyone was raving about! Tinted lip balms and lip tints are one of the best ways to prevent chapped lips while also

Best Books of 2024 His & Hers LOVEDDDDD! I loved this book! And to be honest, I have read a few other Alice Feeney books and didn’t love them but this was really captivating. This book is told from three different perspectives which I really enjoyed. It was easy to follow and interesting to see the story from varying perspectives. Anna is a reporter for a British news station and is asked to cover a murder case in a small village nearby. She is hesitant to report on it because she knows the victim and has history with her. Additionally

It's officially winter and everything on my body feels dry. My skin, my hair and especially my lips. I have products that help my lips stay hydrated all year long but I need to amplify the routine in the winter to avoid dry, cracked lips.
