A Few of My Favorite Things: August 2020

Although Fall is undoubtedly my favorite season- it’s a little crazy to me that the Summer is nearly over already (although I really shouldn’t be surprised by anything happening in 2020- including time seemingly slowing down/speeding up at random.)

My Summer Skincare/Hair Care Routine!

As I embark on these final weeks of Summer, I wanted to take some time to showcase my current skincare and hair care regimen- which is usually my favorite set of products to transition into every year because of how weightless they are on my skin (which is an absolute necessity in hot, humid and […]
