It’s been WAY too long since I’ve written a real blog post. I’ve been trying to keep up with Instagram, the best that I can, but feel like I’ve been failing miserably. I haven’t been writing, I haven’t been sharing, and I haven’t been able to enjoy this. If you know me, you know that …
Happy New Year! 2018. Wow. That sounds so strange, since, in my mind at least, 2001 was just a few years ago. 2018 is a new year, full of possibilities and promise. As most of us do, I am shedding off the past year, and trying to set new goals for this one. This year …

It’s probably not what you’d think… Nothing in the world makes me feel healthier, thinner, or more attractive than a spray tan! I could forego all other beauty services and only get a spray tan and still feel pretty amazing. We all know that tanning beds are a big NO NO! Safe Sun is where …
I have always been really interested in skin care. Even in high school, I scoured the aisles at the drug store to find things to treat my teenage, acne-prone skin. I loved my Noxzema cold cream and 10-0-6 toner! I even started wearing sunscreen on my face as a teenager. In my 20’s, when …
I consider myself to be well versed on beauty products, of all kinds. But, I have a beauty blind spot… drug store beauty. I have a couple of things that I get from CVS, Ulta, or Target, but I never really looked any further than that. I always equated drug store beauty to being …
