Having combination skin means my makeup routine is basically a negotiation. 😂 My T-zone wants to produce enough oil to fry chicken, while the rest of my face is perfectly content minding its business. So I’ve learned that I cannot prime my entire face the same way. ✨ Too Faced Born This Way This

Okay, this layering combo has had me in a chokehold lately: Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Iris Absolue + Vince Camuto Woman LVEB Iris Absolue still has that recognizable La Vie Est Belle DNA, but this flanker lets the iris shine so much more. It’s creamy, powdery without being dusty, and still has tha

I wore the MIXSOON PDRN Collagen Tinted Moisturizer in shade 40 for six hours, and it honestly felt more like skincare than makeup. It’s lightweight, moisturizing, not clingy, and gives light coverage with a natural radiant finish that still looks like real skin. I only used One/Size primer on my

A household of 12 will teach you real fast that snacks and drinks can disappear like a magic trick 😅 So no, I’m not buying everybody’s snack habit. We make a lot at home, the kids help create their own snacks, and when pure cane sugar drink mixes go on sale? I stock up like I know something.

#emergingcreator The little things really do help me feel grounded before a big day. Before orientation, I made sure to lay out my outfit, do a quick soft glam, pack my paperwork, grab water and a snack, and leave early so I wasn’t rushing. As a mama in nursing school, I’m learning that prepa

#emergingcreator I wore this bronzy, glasses-friendly makeup for my student nurse requirements orientation — comfortable, pretty, and still professional. Busy mama, full-time ECE teacher, and student nurse in progress… still showing up. Follow along for affordable beauty, student nurse life,

For the souls who love like thunder and remember like ghosts. This is for the ones who don’t crave soft love… they crave the kind that ruins silence, survives distance, and lingers long after the door closes. 🕯️ Save this if you love dark romance, gothic longing, and messy literary love that refu
