Unwrap the Gift of Lush Cosmetics This Holiday Season

Unwrap the Gift of Lush Cosmetics This Holiday Season

I am a super huge fan of Lush Cosmetics. Whenever I go to the store I usually stock up on items that will last me a good while. Every year around Christmas time I go into the store and pick out items for friends and family who aren’t fortunate enough to have a Lush store near them. My gifts are always a favorite to open, and they always smell sooo good.  If you haven’t gifted a friend with something from Lush Cosmetics then there is a problem that needs fixing. Today I’m excited to share with you some great items…

HomeGoods vs Kate Spade in The Look for Less!

I believe that I am a lucky girl. It’s not because I’ve married the best man a girl could find, but it’s because every time I walk up in Homegoods I find pieces to match these beautiful plates that I found just last year. I’m talking this gold polka dot plates that look very similar to the Kate Spade Larabee Plates that I got for only $4.99 a piece!

Deep down inside I was hoping he would say “Baby, I got a huge bonus at work, and I want to treat you to these shoes you’ve been wanting.” As you probably assume from…

All Tea and no Shade with DavidsTea.

All Tea and no Shade with DavidsTea.

I’ve never been a huge tea drinker, unless you consider the countless sweet teas I’ve had from Chick-Fil-A in the past year, but other that I’ve never been one to get down with tea. Usually in the mall I always huff it past Teavana because while it smells great the thought of me steeping tea is seriously intimidating. It’s like I worry if someone catches me pouring tea from delicate pot into a tea cup I may lose whatever street cred I have left, and let me tell ya it isn’t much since I’ve started this whole PhD thing. Unbeknownst…

Dermalogica PowerBright TRX Creates Even Skin Tone In Three Easy Steps.

Dermalogica PowerBright TRX Creates Even Skin Tone In Three Easy Steps.

Like most people, it takes me a bit to adjust to the clock rolling back. I get all depressed and feel sluggish. I also see a change in my skin as it becomes dryer and seems very dull. This year instead of just dealing  I decided to try out a skin care system from Dermalogica called PowerBright TRX. The PowerBright TRX line is made specifically for people who are looking to brighten their skin. Let me just clarify when I say brighten I do not by any means mean to lighten one skin. These products will not change the color…
