I recently purchased the Pixi Nourishing Cleansing Balm and Glow Tonic. Due to their price point and availability (at Target, $20 and $15 respectively), I was eager to give these products a try. I have oily skin, which is prone to breakouts and blemishes, and I must say that I am very happy with these purchases. The balm and tonic have become essential products in my skincare routine.

Super Simple Nail Designs
I paint my nails every day. Yes, you read that right…Every. Day. E’rry day, e’rry day. In my opinion, having your nails nicely manicured gives the sense of being a little more “put together.” So, yes, I do my nails nearly every day. If you plan it properly, this isn’t difficult to do. Especially if you just paint your nails a solid color. I mean that sounds simple enough, right? Here’s the problem, well here’s my problem – I get really really bored doing the same thing over and over and over. So more often than not, I don’t only paint my nails, I will do this using two or three different colors or texture and glitter coats to make SUPER SIMPLE nail designs.

What is Ipsy?
I get this question at least five times a month! “What’s an Ipsy bag?” “So what’s this Ipsy thing?” “Hey, wait…what is that Ipsy makeup thing you get?” Well…I am so glad you asked 😉.

So I ran right out and purchased another one. However, realizing that I could not keep doing this – I mean seriously, as much as I love it, spending $18 on a brow pencil every three weeks is just not an option. Thus began my quest for a dupe! And BOOYAA – I found one!
(Current) Daily Face Cleansing Routine
Let’s be real people, not all of us can stay 24 forever; that’s just a special arrangement I made with God 😏 14 years ago. So…since none of us have the all-magical fountain of youth in our backyards, I thought perhaps I’d share the daily routine I currently follow to keep the years visibly away. This post is about my current face cleansing routine. This is by no means a routine with high-end products since I sincerely appreciate the convenience of having the drug store around the corner where I can easily find my scrub if I’d forgotten it on my weekly shopping trip. This is by all means a routine of convenience and a modest budget; using all drugstore products. So let’s get into it.
