Asian Gals and Pastels
Asian girls represent a population of women who have been known to showcase beautiful, healthy dark hair and small, delicate, doll-like facial features that are highlighted with hashtags of ‘cute’ and ‘kawaii,’ ever decadent in big, bright eyes and milk chocolate irises. When they smile, they share a curiosity that animates the mind in multiple dimensions from rainbows and frolicking unicorns and pandas, to the polar representation of broken innocence and destruction of a purity that can only be a describing element in Asian women.

Best of Beauty 2017!
1. Fresh Seaberry Oil Cleanser I can honestly and wholeheartedly say I have NO idea what I was doing with my life before I found this cleanser. The thing I love about this cleanser is one; that it’s an oil and feels luxurious on your face when you stumble on home less sober than you'd care to admit at 2 AM, not wanting to make an attempt at taking your smokey eye off. Two; it literally MELTS away all eye makeup, including waterproof mascara (and I LAYYYERR that stuff up), and thirdly; it is not in the slightest harsh to the touch. From someone that has sensitive skin—bold-faced flare ups and all—I can truthfully say that this gives me life. I have tried amazing cleansers such as Lancome’s Radiance cleanser, Purity by Philosophy, Clean and Clear over the years and the list goes on…and noneee of these compare to this oil. I will say, however, I would not recommend for acne prone skin because I do not have acne prone skin and it gave ME tiny under-the-surface zits. My main concern is keeping my skin hydrated and healthy though, and because it has Seaberry in it, its main focus is to moisturize whilst cleansing. If you are looking for something that will brighten the skin and fight breakouts, look no further than the Radiance Cleanser by Lancome.

Eyelash Extensions
If you’re anything like me, you are NOT a morning person and don’t want to put in the effort to get all dolled up every day. So, what is the secret to a hassle-free morning routine? Eyelash extensions! These miracle workers are individual eyelashes, made from silk, mink, or synthetic material. Extensions are attached to your natural lashes with semi-permanent adhesive.

My Struggles with Thick Hair
For many people that I know, they were lucky to be born with the greatness of thin hair. Thin hair is way more common compared to thick hair, although many of my friends have wanted to create volume due to thin hair being boring and flat at times.

My Nighttime Skincare Routine
As I binge watch YouTube videos of successful women who have flawless skin and impeccable morning routines all I can do is sit in envy. While I might not be a morning person (queue the two cups of coffee) I do try to stick to a nighttime skincare routine. Kudos to you out there who can wake early and get yoga, emails and skincare accomplished before your morning cup of Joe. For those of you out there who flop out of bed like a zombie, I got you covered!

My First Brazilian Wax
So several years ago I had finally gotten the nerve up to try and get a Brazilian wax. I had been hearing about getting waxed for a while now from several girlfriends of mine. So after some research and saved a little money off to the side, I was ready. I asked for the name and phone number of the place that one of my girlfriends went. I thought that since she went all the time, and was dating one of my roommates, that she would be a good person to ask. She gave me the phone number and I called to set my appointment.

Nature's Healthiest Hair Remedies. Top Story - January 2018.
For the majority of women, we've all known, at one time or another, what it feels like to have dry, brittle, lifeless hair with split ends. Whether it's from bad weather, inadequate products, a bad diet, or heating accessories that damage the hair, we've all been there, trying to bring out the best in our 'do—trying to test and find the perfect hair product to bring our hair back to life and heal our split ends. Our hair can get unhealthy, from the sulfates in our shampoos to the 345 degree heat frying our hair coming from our straightener, and the point is that it sucks. Not only do the majority of average quality shampoos have sulfates in them, which dries out our hair, but let's admit it, not every hair product that's advertised works as good as it would all natural. The more natural the product and remedy, the better it will heal the structure of your hair. Feeding our hair naturally is as essential as feeding our body naturally.
