We’re back from Ireland and I’m excited to share my reviews and thoughts on some new products I’ve been trying out. In particular, the Supergoop! SuperScreen Daily Moisturizer with 40 SPF. I’ve always been picky when it comes to my daytime moisturizer. Not only am I looking for soothing and hydrating results, the formula has to be suited for under makeup.
Clean beauty has been a highly researched category of skincare and beauty for years now. I’ve always focused on total self care, and paying attention to my skincare ingredients has been a priority. Now that my big pregnancy secret is out (YAY!), this has also been a motivating factor in my clean self care research and regimens.
This past weekend was filled with some wonderful quality time with my husband to celebrate our anniversary. We got to reflect on the year together and talk about our goals as a couple for the future. I also got to relive our wedding through the videos and pictures. I was so happy with how everything turned out – the venues, music, decor, food, my dress, hair and makeup, and of course having glowing skin for the big days! One of the most frequently asked questions I get is what my pre-wedding skincare routine consisted of, so I thought what better time to share it with you.

Happy Friday all – and 20% off Sephora Rouge Holiday Bonus Sale! I got the OleHenriksen Cold Plunge Pore Mask with my points a few months back and have used up the whole sample. I have been in search of a new clay based mask, as my previous favorite got discontinued. I use this mask when my skin is feeling dull and needs a good detox.

Olehenriksen Banana Bright Eye Crème is my new best friend! I have been using this as my daily daytime eye crème for almost a week now, and instantly saw results. The discoloration and fine lines around my eyes has been a challenge for me, so this crème has answered my prayers. I apply delicately, using my ring fingers, along the inside eye area and all the way up to the outer corners.
Combination or Oily Skin? The Sunday Riley Ceramic Slip Clay Cleanser is a great product to help extract excess oils to start the day or remove from a long day of work.

SK-II RNA Power Radical New Age Cream has quickly become a staple in my skincare routine. I have been searching for that perfect moisturizer that gives me results but can also be worn throughout the day underneath my entire makeup routine. It is no easy task deciding when to save and when to splurge in your skincare regimen. As a daily moisturizer, here I did splurge! What I love about this moisturizer is
