Clear Skin
Hey everyone! So I've been struggling from really bad acne since I was in the 4th grade (9 years old!). It sucks growing up being a kid with nasty acne, especially being surrounded by people with pretty skin. I have always been trying medicine and different ways to get rid of my acne, but I have finally said, "Enough is Enough!" and decided to get a skin regime going and sticking to it! 2018 is my year for healthy, glowing skin!

Who doesn't love a spa day? But let's be honest, a full day of pampering can drain your wallet just as quickly as a trip to Macy's and since you're in public you have to look cute before and after right?

On a rare day, my husband is home all day long. He lovingly gives me the opportunity to have some time to myself.

I personally, like to stay in and have a home spa day.

Eyeliner. Iconic. Timeless. Can be a tricky duo for sure, especially if you are newer to makeup. You may smear it, smear it again, wipe it off and do it over and over until you’ve ran out of makeup wipes and believe me, I’ve been in that spot. I still do sometimes if I’m having a rough day.

South Korea is renowned for having quality skincare. Over the past couple years, Korean skincare has grabbed the attention of the West with its affordable and highly effective facial products. Korean skincare is also notorious for having a large range of products that may be overwhelming to Westerners who are unfamiliar with such products. The 10-step Korean skincare routine has recently gained attention by its (perceived to be) lengthy, complicated process, and by the people who swear by it. While many people believe they do not have time for a daily 10-step skincare routine, one might be surprised how undemanding the practice actually is.

How to Look Good on No Sleep
Women are good at faking it, we all know this. We fake confidence, we fake “having it all together” and of course, on occasion, we fake it in the bedroom.
