My Name is Melody, and I’m a Fauxtrovert

My Name is Melody, and I’m a Fauxtrovert

I’m sharing how I use #Listerine in my life as a part of a LISTERINE® sponsored series for Socialstars™. All my closets friends will you tell you that I’m a fauxtrovert. Fauxtrovert (adj): the act of being a fake extrovert. (n): someone who is outgoing only when they have to be. I can’t help it. I’m a introvert trapped in the life of an extrovert, and while everyone is making plans to go out and have fun after work all I’m thinking of is how awesome my couch is going to feel while I read or catch up on missed TV…

Origins Maskimizer Skin Optimizing Mask Primer

My Spring Capsule Wardrobe is Complete!

Spring is here, even though it doesn’t feel like it outside yet. I’m super excited about my Spring Capsule Wardrobe. This whole thing is a learning experience.
