BACK TO SCHOOL BEAUTY

back to school beauty

Back to school has always been a favorite time for me.  Growing up I loved stocking up on notebooks and gel pens for the school year–it was such a ritualistic experience to prepare for the year.  Well, I’m no longer in college but I’m taking the same back to school shopping approach with my face skincare and beauty.  I’m clearing out my summertime product empties and stocking up on the latest to help me transform my skin from summer to fall while moisturizing, cleansing, and beautifying.  Check out more of my back to school haul from Target below!

Simple micellar facial wipes – This is probably the fourth or fifth pack of Simple wipes I’ve purchased.  I’ve tested out a bunch of different brands but these ones really pull off my makeup while hydrating.  I like that they don’t feel drying or harsh and they have these little micelles bubbles to get deep into my pores.

Pixi by Petra tint & concelear duo – I love a beauty product that multi-tasks, this one has a brightening tinted moisturizer on one end and a full-coverage consealer on the other!

St Ives Apricot scrub – I’ve had so many friends who love this scrub and I’ve never had the chance to try it until now.  I’m a big fan of exfoliating my skin and this scrub is perfect for a weekly deep scrub to remove dry skin and polish your skin from dull to amazing.  The apricot extract helps with brightening your skin

Ardell Lashes – I’m still getting the hang of strip lashes, sometimes they turn out great but sometimes not so great.  These individual lashes are easy to pop on for a brighter eye without the full on glam of strip lashes.

back to school beautyBoots Botanics rosewater spritz – I love misting on rosewater or toners after stepping out of the shower, I love the smell of rosewater!

Nozema classic clean deep cleansing cream – Nozema has been a beauty staple forever but I actually had never tried it.  I use these cream as eye makeup remover on a cotton ball to remove even the most sticky mascara that doesn’t come off with wipes and leaves my eye area smooth.

L’oreal true match foundation – When I’m in the store testing out foundations to match my skin it can be a challenge under the fluorescent lights.  This foundation blends to my skin tone easily and is my current fav in my makeup bag.

Lydia Mondavi wine blot lip balm – OMG, I’ve found the holy grail of lip balm.  This is so silky smooth, I’m going back to Target to get an extra one–one for my desk drawer, and one for my purse.  Grape seed anti-oxidant formula leaves your lips feeling soft, plush and protected and also gives an SPF 20.  It looks a bit purple but to confirm–it glides on completely clear.

NYX matte lipstick – Like all makeup, lipsticks can have a short shelf life.  Stocked up on this matte red for a classic red lip this fall.

I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board tog I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board together until late January because there it’s so much buzz around the new year and goal setting around the start of the new year…but how about waiting until the buzz around it starts to fade? I’ve been committed since 12/31/2022 but if you need some fresh inspiration for 2023…here you go!

Last year I made a digital vision board in Canva with about 8 vague photos and I never looked at it. This year, I got a huge poster board and nearly 100 very specific images of the things I want. VERY specific. In the short 3 weeks having this propped up in my office and seeing it each day, I’m already seeing the needle moving on these items! 

Have you created a vision board or set goals for 2023? What doe is mean to you? How are you achieving your goals this year? #goalsetting #visionboard

Porch pirates no more! I’m ordering some great s Porch pirates no more! I’m ordering some great stuff for hosting and gifting this year and the last thing I need is it walking off my front porch. This season, to make sure my new silverware and champagne flutes make it to my holiday table for hosting, I’m having all of my Amazon orders delivered to my garage thanks to my @myQconnect Smart Garage Control and @AmazonKey. It’s awesome to be able to watch my delivery live from the myQ app when I’m not home to make sure my packages are secure and locked up when it’s all done. Cheers!

#AirbnbPartner One of the things that gives me the #AirbnbPartner One of the things that gives me the most joy is creating beautiful spaces that I get to share with others! SWIPE for before and afters!

I love the design process of coming up with a design in my mind and working to make it a reality for a beautiful escape to share. One question we get a lot is “how can I find a place of my own and get started hosting?” Thanks to @airbnb I’m excited to share that @airbnb is introducing opportunities for renters through Airbnb-friendly apartments. You can break into hosting by renting an Airbnb-friendly apartment where you can live full-time and host part-time. I love how this creates financial opportunity for those who rent to start their hosting journey in an easy-to-start way!
