28 Days of Skin Care
Wednesday, February 7, 2018
Skin care is a vital part of our well being. I know my mama and my skin care lady will not be happy to hear this but I have not been keeping up my skin care routine like I should that's why i've joined together with my friend Kayla from Polished and Bubbly for this challenge.

Winter has officially set in and quiet personally this summer lovin' girl has had enough. A girl can only be cozy and pale for so long before she starts getting those winter blues and dreaming of long days spent at the pool or the beach, getting her tan on. If that's you then, I feel you girl. Since we can’t all be somewhere tropical soaking up the sun, I’ve got the next best thing! Sugar Palm Beauty self tanner. It might not bring the sunshine out but it’ll definitely give your skin that sun kissed, glowy look.
Summer Skin Care with Coola
Thursday, April 13, 2017
*This is not an affiliate link. I received free products in exchange for this post.
All thoughts are my own.*
Summertime is upon us. All sunshine all the time makes my heart happy. We spend so much time outdoors in the summer, especially at my parent's pool, so protection from the sun is super important to me for my family. When I received some products from Coola I was excited to learn that over 70% of their ingredients are made from only the freshest, most natural ingredients.
Coola is American made; based out of San Diego, California. Their products are made with sun science technology which means they are always changing. Instead of putting out a sunscreen and never changing their formula, they are always researching and developing new products. Because of this their products are limited. I love that this sun care line is ever changing to help protect me and my family from those harmful UVAs and other harmful pollutants. Another thing I love about this brand is that their sunscreens smell like a tropical paradise with flavors such as Mango, Pina Colada and Citrus Mimosa. There's even a scent free option if you prefer that. Coola has a fan for life with me!
Here's what I got in my Coola box.
Classic Sport SPF 50 Mango Moisturizer
This product is a dream come true for all of us ladies because it doubles as an anti-aging defense, too. It smells good, is SPF 50, protects against sun damage, balances skin tone and defends against anti aging. It's also water resistant for up to 80 minutes and made Farm To Face. This is a no brainer. I put it on my face before I put on my make up on days when I know i'll be outside a lot.
Mineral Liplux SPF 30 Nude Beach
When it comes to SPF lip care, Coola has you covered in their variety of summery colors that add a hint of color while protecting your lips. This is another one of those multi-tasking products because it helps with thinning, aging skin and protects against the sun. Made with 70% natural ingredients; Cupuacu Butter and Mongongo Oil and zinc oxide, it is also water resistant up to 80 minutes. I apply this under my lipstick on those days when i'm busy soaking up the sun and don't have to worry about getting burned lips.
ER Fresh Relief Face Serum
This product has become one of my holy grail products because it repairs a multitude of flaws caused my the environment. It's an anti-inflammatory moisturizer that nourishes damaged skin while protecting it from other harmful pollutants and sun. When I think about skin care, I don't think about the things in the environment that harm my skin. I always think dirt and make up but pollutants go far beyond that and this product cleans and protects from all of that. If I could only grab one skin care product to take with me to a deserted island this would be it. I use it on my face every night after I wash my face and every morning before I put on make up. It's the kind of product that younger me would have never looked at but me now will never live without it. If you are considering buying only one Coola product, let this be the one. I promise you won't regret it.
If you don't have a summer skin care routine then run to Coola and grab a couple things to throw in your beach bag.

Natural Skin Care with Moody Sisters
Thursday, April 6, 2017
When it comes to skin care and beauty products, obsessed is an understatement but I have to be careful with what products I use because I have sensitive skin. I used to think that the only hypo-allergenic, natural ingredient based products on the market were the ones that made the think of my great grandma. Not that I didn't adore her because I totally did, I just don't want to smell like her (not that she smelled bad but hopefully you get the point). I won't name names because this post isn't about them, it's about one of my new favorite lines, called Moody Sisters.
Moody Sisters was founded by two sisters, Jess and Whitney, who wanted organic skin care for their own families. Their products are all natural; made from oils and other plant derived ingredients.
When I came across an ad for Moody Sisters on Facebook curiosity got the best of me and I'm so glad it did. When I saw they offer 4 free samples for new customers, I jumped on it and haven't looked back since. Their products not only work wonders, they smell fabulous and the packaging is so charming, too. They are a far cry from great grandma's plain ol' skin care products but I still think she's approve.

Nourishing Eye Cream
Raise your hand if you suffer form tired, puffy eyes and dark circles. My hand is raised high! I've had super dark circles under my eyes as long as I can remember from allergies. It's always been one of my beauty "flaws" in my opinion but short of covering them with concealer, I didn't know what to do. I hadn't found a product that actually corrects the problem until this beauty came into my life.
*Back Story* A couple months before my wedding in September 2015 I started having major flare ups under my eyes, to the point where they almost swelled shut a couple times. I was panicked because a) I didn't want it to affect my vision b) I had no idea what the cause was and c) it was two months until my wedding. Vanity reasons? Yes but show me any bride who wants swollen puffy eyes. I wish I had known about this product then. When I found them I truly questioned putting any product near my eyes that I had never heard of before but after seeing that their products were all natural, I felt pretty confident that this product was okay and I was sure glad that I did.
Now that i've tried the Nourishing Eye Cream, I can say that it's a dream come true and it's all because of it's all natural ingredients. Not only does it not irritate my eyes, it also has done wonders to reduce the dark circles under my eyes. I should have taken before and after pictures to show y'all because the results have been that incredible. I've only been using this product for about a month but it'll always have a place in my beauty arsenal and regimen. I apply it daily, after I shower, under my make up and nightly, after I clean my face and it truly is making my skin glow. It even smells amazing, which is another must for me when it comes to beauty products. I've been known to throw products away because they smell awful. This smells so fresh and clean with it's natural ingredients such as sweet orange oil, lemon oil and mango butter.

Ultra Rich Face Cream
Another staple in my beauty arsenal is the Ultra Rich Face Cream. It is made with Aloe Vera and Apricot Kernel Oil. When I was having all the sensitivity problems with my eyes swelling, I started breaking leaves off my aloe plant and using the gel to soothe and calm the irritation then a friend of mine told me about apricot kernel oil so I started alternating that with the aloe. When I saw that this product combined the two I was sold. I was looking for a moisturizer to wear under my make up that was lightweight, too. This product basically took 3 things I was using and combined them into one product and it smells really good.
I use it everyday under my make up because it absorbs into my skin really fast and leaves my feeling hydrated and my skin is glowing. You can apply make up with in minutes of putting it on. It's the perfect product for transitioning from dry, dull winter skin to bright, glowing, refreshed skin for spring. Make this part of your daily routine, you won't be sorry. I promise.

Rejuvenating Facial Scrub {Blueberry Lime}
Umm, hello new love of mine. This product makes me excited to clean my face every night. At least every night that I use it. I try to keep the scrubs to a minimal because they can be a bit abrasive if used too much so I try to do mine every three nights but I really could use this one every night. It smells like blueberry muffins, y'all. I think that's what makes it my number one favorite product. The benefits are still equally as awesome as the other products but that smell of blueberry and limes makes it a dream. I really want to run to the kitchen and bake a fresh batch of muffins all the time. Even on the days I don't use this product, I still pick it up and smell it. Maybe that's weird to say about a beauty product but you'll just have to trust me, at least until your very own shows up on your doorstep.
Aside from the smell it has amazing ingredients; organic coconut oil, olive oil, sunflower seed oil and blueberry fruit fibers and it brightens and rejuvenates that tired, dry, dull skin too.

Pore Refining Facial Scrub {Cucumber Mint}
Pores are my nemesis. Anyone else? I feel like the pores on my face are huge. They probably aren't as bad as I think they are but I definitely feel that way and i'm always looking for products that will help with that. Enter my dream product. I'll admit that this one doesn't get used as much as the blueberry one because blueberries but this one truly is amazing with improving my skin's texture and tone. It tightens it up and makes my skin feel so refreshed. Goodbye pores. Hello beautiful, youthful skin.
Again, the all natural ingredients make this an amazing product. Made with Vitamin E, Witch Hazel Extract, and Peppermint, Rosemary, Tangerine and Sweet Orange oils. This cleansing and exfoliating scrub doesn't disappoint.

Winter Skin Solutions
Wednesday, February 17, 2016
Hi Peachies! I hope you're all having a wonderful week. The sun is shining and it's warming up here so i'm one happy girl. I've decided that I'm a summer girl for may reasons, one being my skin looks so much better in summer. All winter I've battled super dry, irritated skin mostly on my face. It makes life hard, not just because it looks bad but because it also gets inflamed and hurts. Applying make-up has been difficult. There have been days when I just couldn't but i've found a solution that works under my make up.
Here are my favorite facial products to combat dry skin and help my make up go on more smoothly.
Apricot Kernel Oil
I bought this to use as a carrier oil with my essential oils but it is for dry skin.
It's a natural skin care oil with Vitamin E.
I apply this with a cotton ball after I get out of the shower so it has time to absorb before I put my make up on.
NYX Tea Tree
Tea Tree Oil is really good for the skin, too so this one is really good for dry skin, too.
It's a primer that reduces the look of skin imperfections.
Basically it's a miracle in a green bottle.
I put it on before I get ready to do my make up.
BareMinerals Prime Time
This is my favorite primer of all time.
It's not oily at all. It goes on super smooth and keeps my make up in place.
It's the last thing I apply before doing my make up.
These three products are my daily pre-make up face routine. I'm not sure I can live without them now.
They're my secret to combatting dry, wintery skin and covering the redness and dark circles this season seems to leave me with.
They're my miracles in a bottle.
