Want to know the skincare strategy that completely changed the game for me? Go ahead and steal it—I don’t mind, promise! 😉
When I first started getting serious about skincare, I wasted SO much time (and money) trying to figure everything out on my own. I was layering products wrong, over-exfoliating, and honestly? My skin was NOT happy.
Then I discovered the power of a simple, consistent routine—and it made ALL the difference.
Here’s how it works:
✨ Focus on the basics first – Cleanser, moisturizer, and SPF. Master these before adding in extras.
✨ Introduce one new product at a time – So you know exactly what’s working (and what’s not).
✨ Be consistent – Skincare isn’t about perfection; it’s about showing up for your skin daily.
It’s simple, but it WORKS—and I want you to have it, too.

Ever feel like the timeline for your dreams is slipping away? Let me tell you something important…
Dreams don’t come with an expiration date—they’ll wait for you. But sometimes, the path you’re on isn’t the one that will get you there, and that’s okay.
When I hit a major setback in life, I thought about giving up. Everything felt harder than it should’ve been, and honestly? I wondered if maybe it just wasn’t meant for me. But instead of walking away, I paused, reassessed, and created a new plan.
💡 Here’s what I learned:
1️⃣ It’s okay to pivot — Your path doesn’t have to be linear to lead to success.
2️⃣ A delay isn’t denial — Sometimes things take longer because you’re being prepared for something better.
3️⃣ Adjusting your approach doesn’t mean giving up — It means you’re learning, growing, and evolving.
If you feel stuck, don’t abandon the dream—just rewrite the map. Your dreams are still waiting for you. 💖
💬 What’s one dream you’ve been holding onto that deserves a fresh plan? I’d love to hear about it and cheer you on! 👇

Just shared a blog post of some of my favorite deals from the Amazon Spring Sale!

Starting over doesn’t mean failure—it means wisdom. Here’s what I’d do differently with my skin…
When I think back to my early days of skincare (or lack of it 😬), I made SO many mistakes. I used to bake in the sun with no sunscreen, sleep in my makeup, and rely on harsh scrubs thinking they were “exfoliating” my skin. And honestly? I didn’t give it a second thought—until I was diagnosed with malignant melanoma in my mid-30s.
If I could hit reset, here’s what I’d focus on right away:
1️⃣ Wear sunscreen every single day – Rain or shine, SPF is non-negotiable. Protecting your skin early is the best anti-aging hack there is.
2️⃣ Start using retinol sooner – It’s the gold standard for fine lines, texture, and overall skin health. I wish I had started this in my 20s!
3️⃣ Focus on hydration over harsh treatments – Stripping your skin with intense products isn’t the answer. A well-moisturized face = youthful, glowing skin.
These simple shifts would’ve saved me so much damage and stress—and probably kept my skin looking fresher and more youthful for longer.
🎯 If you’re in your 20s or 30s, let this be your shortcut guide to healthy, glowing skin—start now and your future self will thank you!
💬 What’s one skincare habit you wish you had started earlier? Drop it below—I’d love to hear! 👇

I thought I had to master complicated makeup techniques to look put-together.
And honestly? It felt impossible. Every tutorial I watched made it look so easy—but my makeup never came out the same way.
But then I switched to cream makeup—and everything changed.
Here’s what happened:
✨ My makeup routine went from 30 minutes to 10 minutes.
✨ My foundation finally looked like skin—not cakey or dry.
✨ I started feeling more confident because my makeup actually stayed in place all day.
Sometimes, the solution isn’t what you think it is—it’s simpler, smarter, and already within reach.
💡 If you’ve been struggling to create a quick, easy makeup routine, trust me—there’s an easier way.

🚨 Warning: This post may cause extreme 90’s nostalgia! 🚨
If you know, you KNOW. 🥹 Oregon Trail, Lisa Frank, butterfly clips, and AOL Instant Messenger… Honestly, nothing hits harder than those 90’s vibes.
✨ Oregon Trail – The whole reason I can type so fast today is because I had to hurry through my keyboarding lessons just to have time to play—and let’s be real, I STILL died of dysentery every time. 😆
✨ Lisa Frank – Stickers, lunch boxes, backpacks, trapper keepers… If it had rainbows and unicorns, I HAD to have it. 🦄🌈
✨ Butterfly Clips – I mean, were you even ready for the day if you didn’t have at least five butterfly clips in your hair?! 🦋
✨ Platform Sneakers – Why wear heels when you could have the perfect mix of comfort and chic with some platform sneakers? Thank you, Spice Girls. 👟
✨ Bonne Bell Lip Shades – Let’s be real, it was Bonne Bell everything—but those flip-top lip shades made you feel like you were that girl. 💄
✨ Delia*s Catalog – Flipping through it, circling ALL the things I wanted, knowing full well I wouldn’t actually get them. 😂
✨ AOL Instant Messenger – Crafting the perfect away message with emo song lyrics, logging in just to see if your crush was online 👀, and then setting a dramatic away message when they didn’t message you. 😎
Let’s face it—90’s life was unmatched. No smartphones, no social media pressure, just your Tamagotchi, some Lisa Frank stickers, and your best friend’s house phone number memorized. 🙌
💬 Alright, get me even more in my feels—what do YOU miss from the 90’s? Drop it in the comments—GIFs welcome! 👇👇

For the longest time, I was terrified of switching to cream makeup.
I stuck to my old powder products for YEARS—even though they made my skin look dry and my fine lines more noticeable—because I was scared to try something new. What if it didn’t blend well? What if it made me look greasy? What if I just wasted my money?
But here’s what I’ve learned: Fear is often a sign you’re about to grow. It’s scary because it matters.
For me, pushing past that fear meant:
🌟 Finally finding a foundation that looks like skin (but better!)
🌟 Getting a natural, glowy finish that lasts all day
🌟 Cutting my makeup time in HALF with fewer products that do more
So now I want to ask YOU:
What’s the one makeup change you’ve been too scared to try—whether it’s switching to cream products, trying a bold lip, or experimenting with contouring? Drop it in the comments—I’d love to cheer you on! 👇
👉 And if you’re ready to take the leap, my advice? Start with a cream foundation and blush combo—it’s easy to apply, blends like a dream, and gives you that fresh, youthful look. Need help figuring out the right shade? Comment "Match Me" and I’ll help you out!

I never thought spending more on skincare would actually save me money—but here’s how it happened…
When I finally invested in high-quality skincare instead of grabbing random drugstore products, I wasn’t sure if I was making the smartest move—or the biggest mistake. What happened next blew me away.
That extra investment turned into:
✅ Clearer, more hydrated skin (goodbye, dullness and dry patches)
✅ Using fewer products (because the right ones actually work)
✅ Saving money long-term (no more wasting cash on products that don’t deliver)
Sometimes, the boldest moves bring the biggest rewards. If you’ve been debating investing in better skincare, trust me—your future self (and your skin) will thank you.

Let’s be honest—there is no miracle skincare. ✨ No single product will erase fine lines overnight, and no expensive serum will instantly transform your skin. Great skin isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about patience, consistency, and building habits that actually work.
But here’s the thing: skincare isn’t just about looking good. It’s about self-care. It’s about doing something for YOU. 💖 Because if you grew up collecting Lisa Frank folders, playing Oregon Trail, and thinking Lip Smackers were peak beauty, then guess what? It’s officially time to level up your skincare routine!
Gone are the days of skipping SPF (we’ve learned our lesson 😅) or using whatever random cleanser was on sale. Now, we know taking care of our skin is an investment in our future selves—and it doesn’t have to be complicated. With the right routine, you can achieve glowing, youthful skin that makes you feel as confident as your 90s self rocking butterfly clips and platform sandals.
