Gel Polish You Can Do Yourself... Yes, You!
I love nail polish. I love the bright colours, the jewels, the nail art. I used to spend hundreds, maybe even close to a thousand dollars a year going to the salon every two weeks to get an acrylic fill and polish. That all stopped when, at my last appointment while removing my polish, you could clear as day see green under my acrylic nail. I was mortified! I asked what was going on and was promptly told, "Oh it's okay, just a small fungus. It will go away." WHAT?!?!?! JUST a small FUNGUS?!?! Nope! I promptly had my acrylic nails removed and that was that.

10 Science-Backed Ways Natural Oil Reduces The Appearance Of Scars. Top Story - June 2018.
There are a million ways to make having scars sound like it’s great. We can say that they tell stories. We can say that they “add character,” or that they “help show who we really are.” At the end of the day, though, it’s not fun. Scars, in some cases, they can make someone feel incredibly self-conscious about their skin.

9 Ways the Simplehuman Sensor Pro Smart Mirror Can Instantly Improve Your Makeup Routine
Saying "makeup is an art" is far from a hot take. Some of us can spend hours to get that perfect look, and in the end, we're really proud of it! That is until you step out of your bathroom into the natural light or the cooler lighting in your office and suddenly, everything is off. Your blush no longer blends perfectly, you've got this weird splotch on your chin, and all that time you spent on your face now seems to be for naught.

Skincare Made Simple for the Twenty-Something
I got an early birthday present in January, a few months before I started my twentieth trip around the sun that, honestly, I could've dealt without. See, I was fortunate to have minor (if any) skin issues in my teens. The occasional small, hormone-related pimple on my chin or nose—nothing that wouldn't go away on its own in a few days. But the start of the new year brought me breakouts like I'd never before encountered. I've been battling stubborn cluster breakouts that are so long-lasting that I can no longer blame them on my cycle, and I have gotten used to the appearance of acne scars on my cheeks. 'Acne face mapping' told me it has to do with respiratory issues (fairly positive I'm fine in that area of health); countless articles have told me to change my pillowcases often and clean my phone screen (but, like, when do I ever hold my phone up to my face anymore? Do people still make phone calls?); and I'm sure there are many other reasons for cheek breakouts that the internet has come up with - none of which really seem to click with me or my lifestyle.

LipSense Review
I’m not really a lipstick girl. I love the look of lipstick, but in reality I rub my lips together a lot, drink liquids often, and have very dry lips prone to cracking, which a lot of lipstick formulas aggravate. Yet, when a mom acquaintance touted the long lasting wear of LipSense by SeneGence that she’d started to sell, my interest piqued. I wanted to be supportive, keep my wineglasses and coffee cups pristine, and possibly become one of those females who always looked fresh.
