I’ve been talking a lot about skincare lately and so today I wanted to focus on a skincare product that’s not getting as much love as it used to now that Sheet Mask have hit the scene. Don’t get me wrong I love how easy it is to just pop open a sheet mask and put it on your face, I also love how portable they are which equals no fuss and no mess, but for me, there is something about a good traditional face mask that will always have my heart.  [ad name=”In Content Responsive Ad”] Depending on your…

Shea Moisture African Water Mint & Ginger Hair & Scalp Collection

My Thoughts on the Shea Moisture Peace Rose Oil Complex

[ad name=”In Content Responsive Ad”] If you were to look in my bathroom closet, you’d find an array of Shea Moisture Products for hair and body.
