Angels and Tomboys Plant Based-Beauty For Tweens and Teens | Teen Girl Gift Guide

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

Our daughter is 12 and getting more into her skincare, so when Angels and Tomboys reached out to see if I wanted to try a few products for review I was excited.

Angels and Tomboys was started by two teenage sisters and it featured plant-based ingredients and trendy packaging. The body butter is so thick and soft, that a little goes a long way, and when I tried a little I didn’t want to give the rest to my daughter (but I did). The body wash smells nice and my daughter was excited to have something of her own in the shower for bodywash beyond the usual shared family cleansers.

My daughter has loved these and it was fun seeing her so excited to use them.

The BEST Random Product EVER. Rise-Free Wipes

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

It’s summer and this is a health and beauty product I haven’t shared but use all year long, but especially in the summer. Assurance Pre-Moistened Disposable Washcloths. It’s a product made by a brand that makes adult diapers, yes, but don’t let that stop you. I’ve had friends say they buy baby wipes years after their children are out of diapers for the same types of uses, but these are just as cheap and they’re 4 times the size and strength of a baby wipe. I started buying these to use immediately after a run or a workout when I couldn’t shower right away (which is, frankly, most of the time) but now I use them for my kids after the pool or beach, after practice, or when we need to clean a weird mess on-the-go.

The easiest, classiest way to look good at the pool | The perfect coverup

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

My go-to pool cover is affordable and always makes me feel pulled together and good whether I am at the beach, at the pool, or out on the lake. I wear a pair of shorts and a long button-down top. My button-down is years old at this point from Walmart. It’s perfect. It’s sheer, it’s long, and it gives me coverage. I also have an old one from H&M. Today I want to share a few options I have found that are similar.

My Favorite Perfume [under $30!]

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I have a signature scent but in 2022 I tried the Ariana Grande Cloud Body Spray which I talked about in this post. I have been wearing it almost every evening and I love that Ariana Grande Cloud is a dupe for Baccarat Rouge 540.

I bought our daughter Ariana Grande Sweet Like Candy a sweet perfume that is perfect for a tween or someone young at heart, for Christmas and also got myself a bottle of the perfume version of Cloud because I have enjoyed the body spray so much.

Fawn Beauty | Recovery & Glow Lip Oil Review

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I’ve wanted to try a lip oil for a while, but I didn’t want to spend $40 and the more affordable options didn’t have the best reviews. Then I remembered that I follow Fawn Beauty, owned by YouTuber Katie Fawn who has some gorgeous makeup tutorials and has all the deets on the best fragrances.

Recovery & Glow Lip Oil in “That’s Amazing”

Described as “a lip mask meets a lip oil” the recovery & glow lip oil from Fawn Beauty is vegan and features ingredients including camilla seed oil, kojoba oil, vitamin E, and coconut oil. I love that I can wear this alone or over the top of a lip color. The scent isn’t overpowering, and the lip oils do not feel sticky or greasy. The packaging is beautiful, I love how big the applicator is, and the way it wears is beautiful. I know it’s late for holiday shopping, but this is also a unique and special gift or add-on gift. I definitely want to get more colors now!

L’Oreal Bambi Eye Mascara Waterproof Mascara

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I LOVE L’Oreal mascara. I’ve been using the L’Oreal Voluminous Mascara for years. I was excited to try Bambi Eye Mascara by L’Oreal and today I want to share my thoughts with you.

Bambi Eye Mascara Waterproof by L’Oreal

I like mascara that is wet that doesn’t flake or clump, and I prefer waterproof mascara because I don’t like to worry about it smudging or if my eyes water. I like a brush that coats and volumizes, and length is good but I do not like a spidery or clumpy look. The Bambi Eye mascara delivers on all of those things. It retails for $8-12 and I will be buying this again.

What is your FAVORITE mascara? Do you wear drugstore mascara or high-end mascara?

The NEW French Manicure is the Same but Different | 2022 French Manicure

& 1 Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

In high school, at an inexpensive mall nail salon, I got my first manicure. It was 2002, so what do you think I got? A french manicure with airbrushed tips, of course. And now, in 2022, the french manicure is back and it’s the same but different.

The NEW French Manicure is the Same but Different | 2022 French Manicure

So, what’s the new style? It’s almost anything you want that is a bit different than the old classic. Colored tips, reverse french, embellished tips, or what I did which is the white french bordering the entire nail edge as opposed to only the tip.

My nails were done at a salon. My nails are a gel full set. I do still use my gel manicure kit for doing my own pedicures.

Have you tried this style? What do you think?

Nadine West Outfit Subscription Box

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday! I hope you are enjoying a day off today in the U.S for Labor Day (or, at least, holiday $!)

Have you ever wondered how a clothing subscription box works? Nadine West offers an affordable-style subscription service.

I have shared my outfits from Nadine West for three years now on my blog (read the posts here). Nadine West sent me this box for my consideration for review but I was not paid to write this post and as always all opinions are my own.

Nadine West Unboxing

What is Nadine West?

NadineWest.com is a company that sends you an outfit to try on and you keep only what you love. The outfit is a surprise, but you take a style quiz and the stylists get to know your style more each month. The outfits are affordable with pieces costing about $10-$30 each, which is very affordable compared to other similar services.

How Does Nadine West Work? 

On the Nadine West website, you take the style quiz so that the stylist can get to know what you are looking for in an outfit. You will receive a pink package in the mail with your personalized outfit. Try on the outfit and keep what you love and send back what you don’t.

My Thoughts On Nadine West 

The style quiz was super easy to do, which was great because I wanted something that didn’t take too much time but I was still able to make notes to make sure the stylist knew my preferences. I really loved the surprise aspect of this, and it was like opening up a girly gift from a really stylish friend. I cannot stand having to return things, it is such a bummer, but I LOVE the way this company does it because your outfit comes with return shipping.

Nadine West Coupon Code 

Use the referral code “Nadine” on NadineWest.com (not an affiliate code for me, just sharing the one they currently have on their website) to waive your shipping fee which means you’ll get your outfit in the mail without paying anything!

Nadine West Unboxing

This wasn’t a great month for me. I do love the front of this tank, but I am not a fan of most lace like this. It feels cheap to me, and while it looks pretty I just can’t get past it. The necklace I am wearing is a beautiful Nadine West piece I wear often.

Nadine West Final Thoughts

Have you tried any fashion boxes like this? Have you tried Nadine West? I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments!

Have a wonderful rest of your week! Thank you for reading! xx
