Get Some Rest with the New Unisom Simple Slumbers
This post is sponsored by Sanofi Consumer Healthcare but all opinions and images are my own. I wish I was dreaming of the beach and sunshine on these gloomy Pittsburgh days! I can’t wait to snuggle up in my cozy bed and have sweet dreams, but it suddenly comes to a halt. I twist and turn and can’t seem to turn off my mind and rest. I have an on-going to do list in my head. Finish all my work tasks, have a social life, make it to dinner with parents, visit my friends. Is getting a good night’s sleep hard to come by these days for you too? I’ve been struggling for a good night’s rest for these days. I decided to try something new, so I headed over to my local Target and picked up the new Unisom Simple Slumbers, from the #1 doctor recommended over the counter sleep aid brand, Unisom. Target now has another product I can’t leave without buying. I picked out the Raspberry flavor and ...
Beach Curly Waves- Hair Tutorial
Crazy Curly Carrie Bradshaw Hair Inspiration The Inspiration: As I crawl into bed at night, I have a go-to show that I am watching for the millionth time. It involves men, love, New York City and best friends. Can you guess which show it is? If you guessed, Sex and the City, you are right! I am rewatching the season from the beginning, it's one of my favorite shows because it's very relatable. Especially now that I'm single, I feel like I can really to relate to the earlier seasons when they are still looking for their matches. I love all the characters because they bring a different perspective and let's confess we all have friends that exude their personalities. If I had to pick, my favorite character would be Carrie Bradshaw. I love her upbeat personality, her love of beautiful shoes and her big heart. She's a total hopeful romantic! This hairstyle is inspired by the one ...
My Morning and Nightly Skincare Routine
Sharing My Most Used Skincare Products Skincare is always a hot topic. What products can I use to make my skin perfect, pore-less, acne-free, wrinkle-free? Well the short answer is there not just one special product that will erase all of the negative things you do not like about your skin or complexion. However, I’ve come across a few products that are helping to clear up my skin, little by little. I suffer from hormonal and cystic acne. Plus my pores suck!! ugh. I think it’s genetics because my whole family has experienced similar problems too. My skin and I have been on a roller-coaster of emotions. It can cause you to be very self-conscious when you have breakouts. There are times I won’t even leave the house!! That’s how extreme I’ve taken it. So if you’re experiencing the same thing and can relate to my hermit personality when my breakouts come knocking, then you’re not ...

My 5 Must-Have Serums and Oils I Cannot Live Without
If your new to my blog, welcome!! I absolutely love skincare and want to share more tips and products to add to your daily beauty routine. I have very sensitive combination skin and get nervous to try new products in fear of breaking out. On the other hand, my skin gets use to continuous use of the same products so I like to give my skin a break and try out some new ones! This is where my top 5 favorite serums come in, because I like to alternate between use. At a young age my mother and grandmother taught us to always take good care of your skin. It's the largest external organ on your body- treat it with love and respect! You always hear "drink a lot of water it's good for your skin!" True- but that's only a small bit of the battle. Genetics, hormones and weather take a major tolls on the skin. Not only was I never blessed with clear porcelain skin but I feel like I have had ...
Adding Kopari Skincare Into My Daily Routine
Hi babes! Skincare is one of my favorite topics! I am constantly trying new products and changing my routine. Who doesn't want beautiful, hydrating and glowing skin?! I decided to take the leap and try a new product. I hear so many people raving about Kopari and I could not help but to hop on the Kopari bandwagon. Guess what- I am SO glad I did! I'm seriously loving this dynamic group of products. My skin is feeling so hydrated and refreshed. Did I mention that they contain coconut? First, I use the Coconut Cleansing Oil to clean my skin of any impurities and makeup that I have on. The lightweight oil does not leave your skin feeling too oily and leaves it feeling more balanced. I love the oil texture and noticed a difference in my skin since using it weekly! Next, spritz the Coconut Rose Toner on first after cleansing. I spritz it all over my face and let it ...

Sharing my Experience with Botox and Fillers
What Cosmetic Injections Do I Get? I love being completely honest with you all! I’m not shy to share cosmetic treatments or procedures I’ve tried. Some people like to keep it a secret, which is totally fine, but I love sharing with you guys and being able to create a conversation about it. Do you guys know how old I am? I'm 28! Ah yes, I never really share my age. Partially because I feel so old but I still get carded, which I'm not mad about!! Age is just a number, it's how you feel :) So let's talk about the fun stuff. What have I tried? The first time I tried Botox was last year and I must say its a miracle! I can not live without it anymore. I had small fine Iines on my forehead and lines around my crow feet that I just was not very happy with. It's little things that can bring down your self confidence. Everyone has something they would like fixed or tweaked, am I right? ...
