LITTLE LUXURIES.
Favorite Skincare Products Under $25.00
For this post I wanted to share with you a
couple of my favorite skincare products under $25. If you have any $$$
left over from your Christmas gift cards I’d recommend you use them
wisely on these products!
Sephora Sleeping Face Masks
Yes, yes and YES! I cannot even begin to tell you how amazing these are!
While, I have tried all of them my favorite is the pearl mask. I wasn’t
expecting much out of it for $4, but I was literally shocked with how
great my skin looked the next morning I woke up. I get about four uses
out of each mask, as it seems to set in better if you apply less. For
about $1 a use, you seriously can’t go wrong!
Origins Charcoal Mask
If your skin is going through a rough
time, use this mask! I apply a thin layer and let it sit for about 20
minutes and then rinse it off. It helps clear up any acne or redness I
am having trouble with. I had this product last me for about 5 months,
using it quite frequently.
Lush Mask of Magnaminty
This mask is perfect to apply quickly in
the morning while you are getting ready and then rinse off during your
shower. It helps your skin look refreshed and awake! It also comes off
the skin a lot easier than other masks, so it’s great to do if you are
in a crunch!
Lush Toner Tabs
Can you go to the spa and get an amazing facial treatment? The answer is NO. Well, maybe some really sketchy spa…My point is that these toner tabs literally leave your skin feeling like you just received a $100 facial. I won’t go into detail of how to use these products(the Lush site has great instructions!) These tabs are fun and rejuvenating to your skin. Plus for $2.95, why not!

BROWN AND BLUE
It's honestly a bit sad how many times I have worn this dress recently! When I find a piece of clothing I love I'll wear it day after day after day(of course washing it in-between!) I've been on the hunt for some cute summer dresses lately but have not had a lot of luck in stores. I recently ordered several dresses from Nordstrom and I cannot wait for those to arrive! I went to Marshalls a week or so ago and I picked up this little dress. I love the navy and white print because is so different from any patterns that are currently in my closet. And the best part of it is that I only paid $16 for it, what a steal! I actually bought a dress almost identical to this pattern and style at Nordstrom Rack for $65 before purchasing this one and ended up returning it after buying this one.
The shoes I am wearing in the post are also a style steal themselves. I purchased them at Target for only $27 dollars(they were on sale!) I've been looking for a pair of heels this style but I tend to wear mostly flats on a daily basis so I can't spend $250 on heels(like the more expensive ones I was drooling over) because I know I won't wear them enough to make it worth it. When I've worn these shoes out I've received sooo many compliments on them and when I tell people they are from Target the look on their face says it all!

APRIL FAVORITES
I've never had problems with my skin in the morning until recently. I'm blaming it on the stress of school stealing away my precious hours of sleep! So I've definitely been needing an extra "boost" in the morning to make my skin look like it received it's needed 8 hours of sleep. This cleanser does everything I've ever wanted a morning facial wash to do. It claims to be exfoliating but in my opinion it's not. The cleanser has soft cleansing beads in it that help your skin feel refreshed but I wouldn't call it a scrub. After I use this is the morning my skin has a nice glow to it. On a good skin day after using this cleanser I could get away with just some bronzer and mascara because of how healthy and even this cleanser makes my face look. I just love it.
MAKE-UP | ANATASIA DIPBROW POMADE | 18
Let me start by saying eyebrows are not my friend. I used to have "werewolf" eyebrows when I was younger and now mine are far from being "on fleek" or whatever they say. Part of the struggle is my eyebrow hair isn't very full and my eyebrows are light. I've tried eyebrow pencils before and I didn't really care for them. I forgot that a long time ago I purchased this brow pomade from Anatasia. About two weeks ago I was going through my make-up and I found this. I've been using it every day now and I love how easy it is to apply, how little product you use and how it doesn't smudge. I felt like I went through so many of their eyebrow brow wiz pencils before and I love how much product you get with the dip brow, I can tell it's going to last me a long time. I'm in the shade soft brown.

HAIR| WIGO COLOR TEASING BRUSH| 3.5
If you struggle with dull flat hair, this little brush is going to be your new best friend. I was at Ulta a couple of weeks ago and the lady working there had amazing hair. So naturally I asked her to tell me what her trick was. She said dry shampoo and before curling teasing with this brush. So I decided it was worth trying for under $5. Before I curl my hair I tease it(just a little) at the roots and it gives my hair so much volume without using a lot of product, plus the pick on the end is great for styling.
STYLE | NIKE KAISHI SHOES | 70
isn't very full and my eyebrows are light. I've tried eyebrow pencils before and I didn't really care for them. I forgot that a long time ago I purchased this brow pomade from Anatasia. About two weeks ago I was going through my make-up and I found this. I've been using it every day no-- The last two months or so I've been really dedicated to working out every day. I purchased these Nike shoes along with the Nike tech hoodie(I'm going to do a post on this look soon) and I love them both. By no means are these the best workout or running shoes I've ever owned. But they are perfect for going to the gym and doing some elliptical or stair master in style and then running errands after. They are extremely comfortable and look great with leggings and t-shirt for a casual look.
HOME | SUGAR BLOSSOM SOY-BLEND LARGE JAR CANDLE | 10
Candles are not usually my thing, so it's rare I find one that I like. I don't like walking into a home and all I can smell is fragrance. These candles from Target are an absolute dream. The scent is light and they last a very long time. *Plus, they go on sale frequently! My favorite scent from this brand is 'sugar blossom.'
THANK YOU FOR READING, HAVE A BEAUTIFUL APRIL!

BLUE & BROWN
Just when I thought the cold days were behind me I woke up to check the temperature outside and the temperature was not what I wanted to see. But instead of staying inside and avoiding the cold all together I decided to go to the park with a friend and "enjoy" what should be the last cold day I experience for awhile! I put on this coat that I purchased a couple of months ago. I love the gold accents on this coat paired with the blue. I'm really hoping this is one of the last of the chilly days and I can start wearing all of my spring/summer clothes I prematurely took out of storage!
