If you've followed my blog for a while, you know how much I love dry shampoo. It may just be my favorite product in my beauty bag. I rely on it (almost) every day and I love how easy and convenient it is. I often get questions asking about my hair care routine & curling iron (read more about that here), but the most common question is about my dry shampoo. ...
Favorite Foundations & Concealers
It's been a while since I've shared a new Beauty Talk with you guys. And if you've followed my blog for a while, you know it's one of my favorite things to write about! I personally love reading beauty reviews, or watching tutorials, and find these kinds of post super helpful. I've been getting a few emails about my makeup routine, (specifically foundations & concealers) and I wanted to share a few of my current favorites. I know everyone's skin is different, so I wanted to share a variety of products that I have purchased and used over the past several months. ...
The Packing List: Charleston
When Austin and I traveled to Charleston a few weeks ago (you can read our travel guide here), we stayed at The Mills House. It was a beautiful hotel and the perfect location to walk around the city. While we were there, I got several emails and comments asking if I would share my packing essentials and suggestions. I personally, love to read "in my bag" types of posts so I am excited to share one with all of you! ...
Skincare Routine for Oily Skin
One of the most common questions I get asked is regarding my daily skincare routine. While I do like to try new products here and there, I love sharing the products with you that really stick out to me.
I've mentioned before that my skin type is combination, but lately, it seems I have been suffering from more breakouts and excess oil. Lovely, I know. While this can seem very frustrating at times, I have read in several articles that oily skin does have it's benefits. For one, it's less dry during the winter, and two, we are less likely to get wrinkles at an early age. Those do seem exciting but I know for me, I want to control my oil and breakouts as much as possible. ...

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: Beauty Exclusives
UPDATE: The 2016 sale has ended but be sure to checkout the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2017 guide.
Each year during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, I always look forward to the Beauty Exclusives. I don't know what it is about buying makeup and skincare, but I always get so excited to try and review the products.
This year, I limited myself to only a few beauty purchases. It's easy for me to get carried away, so I tried to stick with the products I either have tried and loved, or ones that I wanted to add to my beauty bag.
Here are a few of my favorites! ...
Natural Looking Brow Tutorial
Gone are the days where thin eyebrows are in. I remember in middle school the thinner the eyebrows the better (it makes me cringe to think about it). And while some of us may not be blessed with full brows, there are a few tools that can help us fake it till we make it! ...

Now that Summer is officially here, it's time to make some changes in our beauty routine. This time each year, I always find myself going a shade darker in my foundation, loading on the SPF and testing out my new favorite self tanners. I've rounded up a few of my favorite makeup & haircare products that seem to get the job done during these Summer months. Most of these are on sale too! Here's a few worth mentioning: ...
Beauty Talk: Natural Skincare (and giveaway!)
When it comes to skin care, I love to stay on top of the trends. After spending several Summer's working at our local beauty salon & spa, I attended many workshops and classes over product awareness, ingredients and skincare trends. Though I am no longer working at the salon, I still enjoy educating myself on the latest in beauty and thoroughly enjoy researching products. Does this make me a beauty junkie? ...
