AFFORDABLE EYE CREAM THAT WORKS | FEATURING RoC

May 31, 2017 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Wednesday!

I hope that you’re as excited as I am to be halfway through the week already!

I have been getting more into skincare lately, and truly believe that it is never too early to start a good skincare routine. If you’re like me and you love makeup, you may find it easy to spend $50+ at Ulta on eye shadow, but harder to spend on skincare because it isn’t as “fun” but I have now started really investing in quality skincare. Think of your skin as your canvas for makeup, makeup which will look a lot better if you have nice skin. This process of renewal is exfoliation or skin shedding of the epidermis. But the deeper layers of skin, called the dermis, do NOT go through this cellular turnover and so do not replace themselves…so treat your skin well because you’re going to have it, or parts of it, forever ; )

Skincare can be pricy, and I have fallen in love with some higher-end skincare that is now part of my regular routine, but I found that my favorite eye cream is effective and very affordable, so I want to share that with you today.

RoC Retinol Correxion Eye Cream

Claims

ROC RETINOL CORREXION Eye Cream helps moisturize the delicate eye area and helps reduce the appearance of crow’s feet, dark circles, and even puffiness. This eye cream contains pure RoC RETINOL and a mineral blend to visibly reduce the signs of aging around the eyes. This eye cream is shown to even out the appearance of dark circles and reduce puffiness in four weeks. Additionally, this eye cream is shown to help visibly reduce wrinkles around the eyes and crow’s feet in 12 weeks. The cream is noncomedogenic and hypoallergenic.

My Skin

I have combo/oily skin that still battles oil and the occasional breakout, but also the beginning signs of aging such as fine lines.

My Thoughts

I suffer from dark circles (hellooo motherhood!) and use Benefit It’s Potent Eye Cream in the morning to combat my dark circles, but love that this adds even more dark circle diminishing to my routine. I love retinol for anti-aging, and don’t find this to be drying or irritating to my eye area. I am starting to get some fine lines, and think that this is a great way to help combat them. I love that this comes in a squeeze tube, because I only use a small amount and can every last bit out of the tube, but it does sometimes nearly crack on the edges so do be careful that it doesn’t puncture which would cause you to waste product. I will continue to use this eye cream as part of my skincare routine.

Meet My Newest Obsession: Preppy Pink Shop and See My Christmas Eve Outfit!

December 3, 2014 & 2 Comments

Hi there! Happy Wednesday!!

Last Christmas I wore a skirt from Preppy Pink Shop and I loved it so much that I knew I wanted to wear another one this year. I had a whole year to swoon over the skirts on the Preppy Pink Shop Instagram and resisted ordering skirts all summer long since I was pregnant. As most of you know, I’m still pregnant, and now I’m VERY pregnant, but I decided to email Justice, the owner of Preppy Pink Shop, and ask about a custom maternity skirt for Christmas. Justice responded quickly, was super friendly and wonderful to work with! Her custom service was fab and I will be ordering from her often in the future! I am obsessed!

ABOUT PREPPY PINK SHOP:

Justice makes beautiful handmade skirts, but also has headbands, bows, scarves, keyfobs, belts, clutches, and jewelry. Everything on the website is ADORABLE, and I think the price range is awesome because it’s all reasonable and there are budget-friendly options. You can order both on the Preppy Pink Shop Etsy Store or off the Preppy Pink Shop site. And if you aren’t following her Instagram, do so immediately! You can also follow her on Twitter and Facebook...seriously, who wants to limit themselves when it comes to this eye candy?!

THE SKIRT:

A gold brocade with a removable red bow custom made fully lined skirt to fit over the basketball I’m smuggling!

DIY CHRISTMAS GIFTS!!!

December 1, 2014 & 2 Comments

Hi there! Happy Monday!!

I hope that all of my American subscribers had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your friends and families! Can you believe it is DECEMBER?! I am having an especially hard time letting that sink in since it means my baby turns 2 this month, we have Christmas of course, and our newest addition is due in early January.

Because we have so much going on this month, I have been trying to get as much Christmas shopping and crafting done early as possible, and today I want to share two simple but adorable Christmas gift DIY projects.

 

Christmas Sock Coffee Cozy

I love this and am planning to keep one for myself! Too fun : )

What You’ll Need:

christmas-coffee-cozy-DIY-leahtackles.jpeg

A Pair of Christmas Socks

A Travel Coffee Mug (*Tip: Starbucks has the *cutest* holiday mugs this year!)

A glue gun or other strong glue of your choice

Optional: Chocolate to fill the cup with or a giftcard to hide inside : )

Step 1:

Cut the sock so it will be long enough to wrap around the mug (make sure to not use the heel part of the sock).

Step 2:

Glue the two ends of the piece of sock together so that you form a coffee cozy.

Step 3:

Put the cozy on the mug and fill the mug with chocolates, a giftcard, or whatever else you’d like!

What You’ll Need:

DIY-Christmas-Nail-Polish-Gift-Bags-Leahtackles.jpeg

A Small Cellophane Bag

A Stapler

A Piece of Plain Paper or Christmas Scrapbook Paper

A Red Pen

Crinkle Paper or Confetti

Chocolate or Christmas Candy of Your Choice

Nail Polish

Step 1:

Fill the cellophane bag with the crinkle paper or confetti and then add in your chocolates and nail polish.

Step 2:

Measure the paper so it is the length of the top of the bag and fold it in half lengthwise so it will fit over the top of the bag, and then cut your paper. Write a note or greeting on the paper and then staple it to the top of the bag.

Step 3:

Pass out your cute little bags! These also make great stocking stuffers, and you can put other items like giftcards or lip gloss.
