I know there is a lot of product sharing out there in the influencer world, myself included. We're always sharing what we love or what works for us, but something I don't share too often is when a product doesn't work for me. I usually only focus on the stuff that I love but I thought it might be helpful, especially for those of y'all who know you have similar skin to me or whatever, to start sharing the items that didn't work out for me. This isn't to bash the brand or ANYTHING like that, and instead, I'm just trying to share the good and the bad (for me). ...
If You Color Your Hair, You’re Going To Want to Read This.
I have been coloring my hair for many many years and it's always been important for me to use products that preserve my color. As much as I love my hairdresser, I like to keep my salon visits at a minimum. Since I've colored for so long, I have to use certain products to keep it healthy and reduce breakage. ...
I Put Austin on a Skincare Routine. Here’s What Happened.
When I met Austin 10 years ago, I was in college and working part-time at a beauty salon. I worked there off and on while I was in school and then summers when I was teaching. It was a dream job for someone who loved learning about products and getting to help clients with beauty and haircare. ...
How to Adjust Your Skincare Routine for Fall and Winter
One of my most-asked beauty questions around this time of year is always if it really is necessary to change your skincare routine when transitioning from summer to fall/winter temperatures. At face value, I can see how it might seem unnecessary, but as someone with sensitive and acne-prone skin, I absolutely do. ...
My Dermatologist Recommend this At-Home Facial for Healthy Skin (and it works)
When my dermatologist recommended this at-home facial, I knew it was going to be good. I love all things skin and beauty related, which probably explains why I'm always asking a ton of questions when I talk to her (yes, I'm that annoying client). I also follow several dermatologists and estheticians on Instagram — I love accounts that teach me how to care for my skin. ...
What I Do When I Want the “No Makeup” Makeup Look
Since my skin has recently cleared up, I've been taking advantage of the "no makeup" makeup look. Which is honestly a misleading term, because you definitely wear makeup, just not a full face. These products will get the job done if you want a little bit of color, SPF, bold brows and plump lips. ...

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is now officially open to Influencer Nordy Club cardholders and today I'm sharing my top Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 beauty exclusives.

My Most-Worn Lipstick Shades for Everyday
I often get asked about my most-worn lipsticks (and some are still on sale right now with code SPRINGSAVE) and wanted to make an easy spot for you to reference. From matte to gloss, these are my favorite shades for my lips. ...
How I Organized My Makeup and Skincare Drawer
Spring is in the air and I've been trying to get a jump start on getting things organized around here. Starting with my bathroom makeup drawers -- they are always the first to get messy.
Being a self-proclaimed beauty junky for the past 10 or so years comes with its perks, but organizing hasn't always been my strong suit (if you saw my IG story of my beauty closet you know what I'm talking about). I've been determined to declutter and organize my bathroom drawers and I finally came up with a system to keep my makeup and skincare products organized. I hope you can find it helpful, too! ...
Is a Billie Razor Subscription Actually Worth It?
If you scroll through your social media feed, it wouldn’t surprise me if you saw some of your favorite influencers and bloggers using the Billie Razor. Honestly, I was #influenced myself and ended up buying the $9 razor. After spending more on premium razors, I was ready to try something new. Here are my thoughts: ...
