It has been a little over a month since I started using NeuLash. In case you missed my first post, NeuLash is an eye lash serum that helps strengthen and grow your lashes. I was so excited to try this product because I have heard so many amazing things!
While it’s still only been a month & I plan on continuing till I use the bottle up, I have yet to notice a difference yet. As you can see in the picture above, taken with iPhone 6, they look similar (maybe a little fuller in the bottom picture). When I wear mascara and curl them, I still haven’t really noticed much of a difference. If I got nervous that I didn’t apply enough the night before, I would apply a little in the morning.
I will continue to use and see if there are any new results… I will keep you all posted! I have been told it can take up to 6 weeks to start to see results so STAY TUNED ?
In the end, I know it will be worth the wait.

Since I was 23 years old, I haven’t sat in the sun for more than an hour at a time. While we all love that sun kissed look. I’d much rather preserve what I have, for as long as I can.
I will never claim to be a beauty expert, but I do know what has worked for me in the past and continues to work for me now. I have highlighted some of my favorite skin care products below. Along with drinking lots of H20 and getting a facial every 4-6 weeks, these Crave favorites keep me feeling and looking young!
Sunday Riley Flora Hydroactive Cellular Face Oil
Sunday Riley… I had heard rave reviews so I purchased this around Christmas. I use a face mask every other night. So my off nights, I apply Sunday Riley. The concentrated formula of Russian, Bulgarian & Turkish Roses along with a TON of antioxidants it nourishes fatigued skin & smooth fine line & wrinkles. I had to get over the smell at first but now it just feels like I’m rubbing a garden all over my face! I LOVE IT & the bottle will last at least a year! A little goes a long way.
Treat Beauty Confetti Cake Jumbo Organic Lip Balm
A good lip balm is KEY & when it is $5 & Organic EVEN BETTER. My lips tend to get dry depending on the seasons so staying hydrated is always key. I slather it on before bedtime. It’s triple the size of a normal lip balm, so I never lose it. The ingredients are what sold me. Coconut Oil, Beeswax, Shea Butter & Vitamin E. I’ve been using it for over a year and I will NEVER use anything else.
I have jumped on the Korean beauty band wagon & I’m loving every minute of it. Like I mentioned above, I have gotten into the routine of applying a face mask every other night. I use a sheet mask about once a week. Tony Moly makes some of the best I’ve used. My skin is left refreshed and glowing. At only $4 a mask. It’s an inexpensive treat for your face.
Fresh Limited Edition Rose Face Mask
I have used this mask for over two years. This mask is a gel formula. It is infused with real rose petals & pure rosewater that tones and hydrates your complexion. I have noticed my pores shrink the more I apply it. It is a smaller jar, but a little goes a long way. I have had my jar for about 6 months and I just ordered a new one. Pictured above is the Limited Edition jar.
I have been using this for 3 months and it is AMAZING. It is a washcloth that with a little water removes all your makeup! YES, all of it. Even waterproof mascara. After purchasing, wash in the washing machine. Air dry or use the dryer. When your ready to remove the days makeup. Add a little water and gently run the washcloth over your face, lightly wiping off mascara. Amazing! It all comes off with no soap or cleanser. After cleansing, I take a another wash cloth with warm water just to make sure I got everything. This product is truly remarkable and for $20 its a steal!
What are your favorite skin care products? I would love to hear!

As much as I have tried to paint my own nails, it’s disastrous! A weekly manicure is a MUST!
I recently got my first French manicure since senior prom. I loved it. That doesn’t mean I won’t go for that hot pink polish next week! I’ve listed my favorite colors from the perfect nude to a shocking pink:
From left to right
Essie “Marshmallow”: I love this over a French manicure!
Essie “Ballet Slippers”: My all time favorite. The perfect classic pale pink with a sheer finish.
Zoya “Farrah“: When I’m wearing bright clothes, I grab my favorite nude polish!
Essie “Lounge Lover“: A classic flamingo pink, pretty peachy pink!
I love neon polish and when I wear it, I always get compliments! All that Razz & Jackie OH : Bright & Gorgeous Shades of Neon Pink!
7. Burberry “Military Red”: A classic red!
Essie “Bobbing for Baubles”: Obviously, I love the name. This is such a beautiful deep sapphire! A winter fav of mine!

There is no better feeling than finding a new favorite beauty product. On a recent trip to Atlanta. I stopped into this adorable shop. Ona Boutique of Atlanta, they carry some of my favorite products. Nest Candles, Stephanie Johnson Makeup Bags & my new favorite Supracor Spacells. The helpful sales associate gave me the lowdown on it: a facial sponge that not only cleans and removes make-up, but exfoliates and massages your skin, stimulating blood and lymph flow to decrease puffiness, eliminate toxins and promote cellular regeneration. The unique honeycomb design is gentle & non abrasive.
As soon as I got back to my hotel I tried them both!
Bath Mitt: I used it with my favorite body wash and gently massaged in circular motions for 5 minutes. I then shaved my legs and I instantly noticed a difference in the smoothness of my shave. My skin just felt healthier.
Facial Mitt: I used my facial cleanser and gently used small circular motions around my face. Wiped off with a wash cloth and continued my regular nightly regimen.
Ps. The sales associate informed me that the pink and black mitts are a firmer texture. Where as the other colors are a bit softer.
After use, I just washed them out with water, squeezed the excess water out and let them air dry. That’s apparently all you have to do. The design naturally resists mildew. I’ve been using it for a week now and I have noticed a big difference. My sunless tan ☀️ looks even and vibrant.
The price makes it even better: Face Mitt $14 & Body Mitt $34.00 GREAT DEAL for something that will last a a year or two! I would think that the facial mitt will need to be replaced sooner than the body mitt. Will keep you all posted.
Would love to hear what you think?!
Have a healthy & happy day?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I am no beauty expert but I am product obsessed. Whether it’s a face mask or bronzer! I’ve listed my favorite products over the last 17 years! ?
Origins Charcoal Mask – this mask makes my skin feel so good after! It cleans all my pores and I feel refreshed!
La Mer Moisturizer – hands down the best moisturizer on the planet! I’ve tried them all. It’s the only one that moisturizers my skin and I literally don’t have to wear any face makeup when I do! Pricy but so worth…
Hoola Bronzer – My favorite bronzer doesn’t look orange at all and leaves a nice healthy glow!
Nars Radiant Creamy Moisturizer Concealer– every beauty expert I know recommends this concealer it covers without caking and always makes those pesky dark circles disappear!
All R & Co products – Thank you to the Hair Gods! These products are amazing. I almost compare them to a new(er) Bumble & Bumble (same price point)! Try their Blow Dry Balm and Thickening Spray! Love it!
Mac Lip glass – I’ve been wearing this since high school.. My favorites are Oyster Girl (light pearlescent sheen) and Nymphette (sunny golden pink)!
Shi Uemura Eyelash Curler – a MUST! Makes me look awake when I’m up all night stringing beads!
Better than Sex Mascara – the new favorite! Used with the Eyelash Curler and BAM!
Thierry Mugler Angel – I’ve been wearing this since I was 17. Always get compliments and still haven’t found another perfume that compares!
What are your favorites? I would love to hear! Comment below 🙂
P.S. Happy Girls Are Always The Prettiest Girls!
