Summer Beauty Favorites

 
I'm a lip balm addict! The Smith's minted rose lip balm is my newest addiction. I'm so picky about lip balm it's ridiculous, but I found this at Sephora for $6 and love it! The only thing I hate is it can be tricky to open, especially if you have lotion on your hands ;)
I'm  pretty much in love with this bracelet  from Forever21! Since I have oddly skinny wrists & ankles that don't proportion out with the rest of my body I've been wearing it as an anklet. ;) The colorful layered bracelet I picked up from Target is one of my other go to accessory for the summer. I love the colors & how it can make a casual outfit a little more fun. I found this two in one Bite lipstick at Sephora for only $12! I did purchase two, but I have a toddler who seems to really enjoy using them as colors. :( They last forever and have a nice matte look to them. I'm also obsessed with this blush & bronzer from Sephora. I have not stopped using this shade of blush since I purchased it two months ago! Okay, so this Aveeno brighting cleanser is amazing. I love the smell and how it does not leave my face dry afterwards. I was a little hesitant on trying the Jergens natural glow. I used it for my thighs to even out my short tan that I had going on. It helped even out my tone so I don't have that awkward tan line while wearing and swim suit.
My hair can be pretty annoying. It's curly, frizzy, wavy  & just plain blah! I use this Frizz ease when I'm lazy and don't feel like doing anything with my hair. I just apply some to my damp hair once I get out of the shower & bam it gives me a natural wavy/curly look with less frizz. Now this Dove clear tone deodorant is heavenly! It smells amazing & actually does the job. It runs around $8, but worth every penny. I'm still trying to transition to the just wax, but I still shave my underarms :0 I know, I know wawawawawaaaa. With that being said I started to notice a darker tone under my arms so I tried this deodorant to even things out & yup it did! It lighted up my armpits & gave them an even tone.  So there you have it a few of my favorite beauty products I've been using this summer. Now excuse my while I  go scrub the vibrant magenta lipstick out of my cream colored loveseat.

Outfit Post & frizzy hair



                                         Cardigan-Thrifted Dress- American Eagle Shoes- BirkenstocksSo what is my obsession this summer? Birkenstocks! These are my favorite shoes this summer. Seriously I wear them everyday. You can catch me wearing them with just about anything. Guess I'm stuck in the 90's ;) I'm digging summer dresses also. Especially ones that kinda just flow. Eh, not into the skin tight thing right now.... considering I have the worst diet going on, but that's just not something I want to discuss. What is going on with my hair you ask? Well that's Texas weather for ya! No shame in this doo. Happy Hump Day!

4th Of July Mani with silhouette nail art stickers



I bought a silhouette cameo a while back & I'm in love with it!!! I still have so much learning to do on what all it is capable of, but so far it is one groovy little machine.  I made these star cut out sticker decals & was so surprised at how precise it cut the small stars. I bought this Rimmel London lipstick for about $6 & so worth it. It Lasted without having to keep reapplying which is awesome. I also picked up this revlon "fearless" nail polish & it is now my go-to summer nail color. LOOOVE it! Perfect color for the 4th of July. Happy Hump Day everyone!
