Abercrombie Denim Sale | My Favorite Abercrombie Jeans

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

The Abercrombie Denim sale is coming 8/11-8/14 and this is the time to grab your favorite jeans or to try out a new Abercrombie TikTok Jean. Today I want to share my favorite Abercrombie and Fitch jeans.

Curve Love Mid Rise Baggie Jean

If you haven’t heard, lower rises are back. Thankfully, the low rise doesn’t mean what it did circa 2003 (I am not ready to go back to the Christina Dirrty era, as iconic as it was) and I am a big fan of the mid-rise option.I have these jeans in cream and they’re so comfortable and go with everything dressed up or down. I size down in this style.

High Rise Loose Jeans

These are on my wishlist, and look so flattering on so many body types. They’re not *too* baggy.

Ultra High Rise 90s Straight Jean

My favorite jeans!

DRMTLGY Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF 46 Medical Grade Skincare

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

It has been HOT and humid this summer and I’ve been wearing five makeup products each day with the favorite being the DRMTLGY Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF 46 because it is a super light coverage but enough to blur my imperfections and gives me SPF on my face.

DRMTLGY Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF 46

I apply this with one of my favorite Real Techniques beauty sponges. I apply a layer all over my face and build it up a tiny bit on any imperfections. The DRMTLGY Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF 46 is a best seller on Amazon for a reason!

What is your favorite tinted SPF?

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.

Have you tried a shower wipe or a similar product?

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.

The Best White Sneaker | Elevated White Sneaker

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I kept running into situations where I needed an elevated white sneakers. I recently purchased the Frye Low-Lace White Leather Sneaker as my Mother’ Day Gift and I have reached for them so many times already.

Frye Low-Lace Leather Sneaker

Pictures do not do these shoes justice. The leather is pebbled, gorgeous, and incredibly soft. The inside of the shoe is nicely cushioned and I love that it’s a brown color so that it doesn’t get dirty from bare feet or sunless tanner. I have tied the laces and tucked them under the insert so that I can easily slip them on and off. These look great with shorts or a dress, and I love that they’re not clunky and are a bit more elevated.

My No Buy/Low Buy Update

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

We are halfway through 2023 already, and it’s time for me to update on my no buy/low buy for 2023.

I have so far followed all of my rules, but I have definitely pushed it a little bit. For example, I asked my mom for clothing and shoes for my birthday, and I had a few gift cards, and when I used those I would pay the difference and allow that. For example, I had a $50 gift card but spent $70. I also bought myself a Mother’s Day Gift that I picked which is what I told my husband I wanted.

Shopping Triggers

Shopping definitely gives a little happy boost, and fashion is my weakness. I notice that I want to shop when I’m really stressed, or sad, and sometimes just when I see a great piece that I think will be impactful in my closest.

What I’ve Learned

While I haven’t been perfect, the no buy / low buy has stopped me from buying things right away and made me pause. And a lot of times the “must have it” feeling will fade. Having to be creative with gifts and gift cards has also ensured I really research what I want. It helps me to save a web browser and I can always go back to the item later. It also helps me to organize what I do have, for example organizing my shorts or all of my hats. I also like putting together outfits from my closet instead of seeing a new item and putting an outfit together in my head with the new item.

Full Brows |The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Serum for Hair Density

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I have decent eyebrows, they’re fairly full and I thankfully missed the overpluck of the ’90s, but I decided to try a hair growth serum to try to fill in the more sparse areas and get a little bit more fluffy brow hairs. The brow serums tend to be expensive, so I wondered if the well-reviewed hair growth serum from The Ordinary, a company I love, and I have loved the results. I love The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Serum for Hair Density.

Denim On Denim 2023 | In Style 2023 Trend

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I am a big fan of denim on denim, and it wasn’t gone that long but now it’s back in a big way for 2023. I love any monochrome, tone-on-tone, dressing, and denim on denim is a fun look. Some people are worried that they’ll look like they’re rocking a “Canadian tuxedo” or be imitating Brit and Justin circa 2001 (IYKYK), but if you give it a chance it can be an easy, pulled-together look.

Denim On Denim 2023

I styled my Abercrombie 80’s Mom Jeans with an old denim (chambray) shirt worn open (similar one linked here) and wore a green-gray neutral tank (similar).

What do you think of this trend? Are you into all this denim? Let me know in a comment below! You can view my outfit daily on my Instagram.

CeraVe Skin Renewing Nightly Exfoliating Treatment Glycolic Acid Face Serum

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I started using the CeraVe Skin Renewing Nightly Exfoliating Treatment Glycolic Acid Face Serum recently after I decided to switch to a drugstore glycolic acid face serum to replace a more expensive serum I was purchasing from Sephora. Today I want to share my thoughts with you.

CeraVe Skin Renewing Nightly Exfoliating Treatment Glycolic Acid Face Serum

Why Ues Glycolic Acid?

Glycolic acid works to exfoliate the skin, speed up cell turnover, and boost the production of collagen. It also helps clear pores, smooth fine lines, fade sun spots, and hydrate your skin. Glycolic Acid is a powerhouse!

Product Highlights:

  • Gently exfoliates to help improve signs of aging, skin tone, texture, and hydration
  • Leave-on face serum helps visibly brighten and even skin tone with 8 weeks of use
  • Reveals a healthy-looking, radiant complexion
  • The creamy, hydrating formula is potent, yet gentle and lightweight
  • Lactic and Glycolic Acids help minimize the appearance of fine lines, dark spots and pores
  • Licorice Root Extract helps visibly brighten skin
  • Hyaluronic Acid helps retain the skin’s natural moisture
  • Noncomedogenic, paraben-free, and fragrance-free

Description

CeraVe Skin Renewing Nightly Exfoliating Treatment features a 5% AHA blend of glycolic acid and lactic acid for gentle exfoliation to help smooth fine lines, accelerate skin’s surface cell renewal, and clarify dead skin cells, without causing flaking or redness. With continued use, skin looks healthier with an improved radiance as signs of aging are visibly reduced, including the appearance of wrinkles, dullness, dark spots, and enlarged pores. Potent, yet gentle and lightweight, this multi-tasking, leave-on face serum is formulated with 3 essential ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and licorice root extract, and helps maintain the protective skin barrier and immediately boost skin hydration. Serum for the face also helps visibly brighten and even skin tone with 8 weeks of use. The creamy, hydrating formula is non-comedogenic, fragrance-free, and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

Key Ingredients:

Glycolic Acid – Lactic Acid Blend: 5% AHA blend gently exfoliates and increases surface cellular turnover for visibly smoother, radiant skin
Three essential ceramides (1, 3, 6 II) help restore the skin’s natural barrier
Licorice Root Extract helps visibly brighten skin
Hyaluronic Acid helps retain skin’s natural moisture
MVE Technology provides a steady release of all-day hydration

My Thoughts

I use this after cleansing and toning my face and after I apply this I apply either my moisturizer or my vitamin C, depending on the day (I alternate certain skincare items). I love this product and my skin looks just as good as when I was using a more expensive version. I will continue to use this product.
