I am currently heading off to New York Fashion Week. And to help me gear up for a busy week ahead, I'm packing 10 of my go-to products to help me look alert, awake and glowing. These trusted products are the ones that make me look like I've had 8 hours of sleep (even when I haven't), give me radiant skin and help my makeup stay put all day. Sounds too good to be true? Well, the proof is in the pudding. ...
It's no secret that I'm a beauty junkie at heart. After launching my Beauty Talk series nearly three years ago, I have loved sharing reviews, products and tutorials with you! Since I was in high school, I've enjoyed researching and testing out new beauty products. One of my goals with The Teacher Diva is to always share honest reviews and introduce you to new products that I genuinely enjoy. Today, I wanted to highlight the Beauty Exclusives from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. With so many to choose from, I am sharing my tried and true favorites. ...
Happy Friday! I am so excited to share with you all my Nordstrom Beauty Haul and a recap from the Nordstrom Beauty Trend Event on May 6th. The event was so much fun! I also loved getting to sit front row with the 10 winners from my Instagram contest. I always love meeting readers, and these girls were super fun! Not only was this a great event, but it was also a great learning experience. I had the opportunity to interview a few stylists and makeup artists from different brands and hear all about the new trends in beauty and skin care. ...
Let's face it, we all have our routines and habits. And while it can be hard to break a habit, it is a good idea to change up your beauty routine with the start of a new season. Whether that's wearing a brighter lip or changing up your moisturizer for warmer weather, it's a good idea to pay close attention to you skin needs. And just like we "spring clean" around the house, we can't forget to take a look in our beauty bag.
With the changing seasons, we are always updating our wardrobe. Why not freshen up your beauty routine? ...
When it comes to beauty and skincare, I love researching and trying new products. Though I have my year-round staples, I like to rotate a few pieces in my beauty bag with the start of a new season. I recently ventured over to the makeup counter at Nordstrom and picked up a few new things for spring (it's hard for me to pass up a good Gift With Purchase). Whether it's adding a pink lip or reintroducing your favorite bronzer to your routine, I've got you covered. ...
Calling all makeup lovers and beauty queens alike, this gift guide is for you! As a self-proclaimed product junkie, I always look forward to this gift guide. It's honestly the hardest for me to create because I love so many products. It's tough to narrow it down to just a few! ...
UPDATE: The 2016 sale has ended but be sure to checkout the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2017 guide.
Each year during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, I always look forward to the Beauty Exclusives. I don't know what it is about buying makeup and skincare, but I always get so excited to try and review the products.
This year, I limited myself to only a few beauty purchases. It's easy for me to get carried away, so I tried to stick with the products I either have tried and loved, or ones that I wanted to add to my beauty bag.
Here are a few of my favorites! ...
Now that Summer is officially here, it's time to make some changes in our beauty routine. This time each year, I always find myself going a shade darker in my foundation, loading on the SPF and testing out my new favorite self tanners. I've rounded up a few of my favorite makeup & haircare products that seem to get the job done during these Summer months. Most of these are on sale too! Here's a few worth mentioning: ...
When it comes to skin care, I love to stay on top of the trends. After spending several Summer's working at our local beauty salon & spa, I attended many workshops and classes over product awareness, ingredients and skincare trends. Though I am no longer working at the salon, I still enjoy educating myself on the latest in beauty and thoroughly enjoy researching products. Does this make me a beauty junkie? ...
As promised here is a peek into my travel beauty bag. I shared a few snapchats (username: theteacherdiva) of my products during our recent trip to Europe (travel details coming soon!), but wanted to include a full post going into detail on each product. A few of you were curious about my skin care routine and miscellaneous beauty items so I was sure to go into detail on each of those. ...
