Choose wisely from your skincare routine to primer to you setting spray for a flawless, long lasting makeup without having to feel like you wearing a mask or melting
My hair felt like it belonged on a scarecrow by 3pm every day. Dry, frizzy, snapping off at the ends. I tried leave-in conditioners, masks, expensive salon treatments, and nothing stuck until I started oiling my hair before bed. If you're the person who dreads brushing your hair in the morning because it tangles into a bird's nest overnight, this lineup took me from straw to soft in about two weeks.

I have been on a long haircare journey to find the best products for me that make my hair feel soft, shiny, and prevent split ends while also being color safe (ya girl colors her hair a lot lol). I recently found out that my hair type is thin which means that lighter weight products penetrate into my hair follicles better than thicker hair products. More does not always = better. The less products used on my hair, the better. Also did you know that most haircare products are likely the cause of your breakouts on your face, neck, and back?! A lot of hair products are made with thick ingredients like coconut oil which is highly comedogenic. If you have acne prone skin you should be looking for thinner, more bouncy textures/ ingredients that won't cause as many breakouts.

Genuinely, I've been hooked on it ever since.

i have used press on nails since 2012 and i have never gotten my nails done in a salon. even now, i either do my own nails or buy press ons. here are the best nails that last me 2+ weeks!‼️NOTE: if you have trouble with press ons lasting, make sure you buff the top of your nails until they look rough/have nail dust from buffing and then wipe with alcohol/acetone and let them dry. when you apply, they should stick for a while! they don’t stick well to oily/shiny/unbuffed nails. my nail prep makes my nails last so long i have to practically pry them off after 3 weeks to redo them, with all 10 nails still intact!

You forgot to reapply sunscreen on day two and now your shoulders look like a lobster costume. Every shirt feels like sandpaper and sleeping is a negotiation with your pillowcase.
