What She’d Love For Mother’s Day

With Mother's Day being just about a week away, I wanted to share a list of things I think all women in mother figure roles would appreciate - I know I would. Personally, I have this dog tag necklace on my wishlist, plus a couple smaller things I'm sharing in this post. From more budget-friendly gifts like this ribbed mug to one of my favorite skincare tools (that's on sale!) or personalized jewelry (I have and love this necklace for Geroge), there should be something for everyone on your list - or great inspo to send your guy. Happy early Mother's Day to everyone! ...

I Tested 30 Affordable Makeup Brushes. Here’s My Top 15.

A few months ago I got a DM asking if I could review and share a list of affordable makeup brushes. Specifically brushes under $20 that blend nice and  don't shed. I love a good challenge and was pretty excited to work on something like this. Makeup is something I've always enjoyed and it's been fun to test out over 30 brushes (yes, 30) and pull together a list of my top recommendations. The best part? They are all $20 or less. ...

The 10 Amazon Items I Loved Most This Year

Hey y'all, I hope everyone who celebrates had an amazing Christmas! As we approach the new year (finally!), I thought I'd use this week to share some stuff that I loved the most this year, including these 10 Amazon items.

With that, these are the 10 items that I think I enjoyed most. If you have any orders that are a must-try, please let me know in the comments. ...

Small Businesses to Shop From This Season

Y'all know by now (hopefully!) that I love supporting small businesses throughout the year. I really try to highlight and source from small businesses not only because you can find amazing, unique finds, but because I know what it's like to essentially be a smaller business. More so than ever in 2020, I think it's important to support these small brands whenever we can. Obviously many have dealt with the struggles of COVID and I think we all want to give back in any way possible. ...

I Put Austin on a Skincare Routine. Here’s What Happened.

When I met Austin 10 years ago, I was in college and working part-time at a beauty salon. I worked there off and on while I was in school and then summers when I was teaching. It was a dream job for someone who loved learning about products and getting to help clients with beauty and haircare. ...

I’ve used the Always Pan for the Past 6 Months, Here’s my Honest Thoughts

I’m sure you’ve seen the Our Place Always Pan make its debut across your Instagram feed and if you haven’t, this will be a culinary treat.  There’s no more versatile place to start a cookware upgrade than with the frypan, the kitchen staple. I love this one in particular because—aside from being aesthetically pleasing—it's nonstick and nontoxic. Plus, it comes with a coordinating lid, wooden spatula, steamer basket and colander. ...

How to Adjust Your Skincare Routine for Fall and Winter

   One of my most-asked beauty questions around this time of year is always if it really is necessary to change your skincare routine when transitioning from summer to fall/winter temperatures. At face value, I can see how it might seem unnecessary, but as someone with sensitive and acne-prone skin, I absolutely do. ...

Everything You Need to Organize Your House

Alright, you guys, this is a post I've been meaning to write for a while now and I'm happy to finally launch. Whenever I share my makeup drawers, vanity, or pantry, I get some questions about what I use to organize. Truth be told, we're not organized 24/7 (honestly who is?) but for the most part, I like to keep things tidy. For us, it's all about getting products that make organizing easier aka having a spot for everything. ...
