My Lineup Of Leave-Ins

So I mentioned in another recent post that I use a ridiculous amount of leave-in products in my hair. It took some serious trial and error because my hair is straight, fine and easily weighed down. It's also prone to being oily and so finding products that make my hair magically soft without the extra weight or oil was awesome! So here they are, my (all drugstore!) hair care stars!

I Spray Painted Bottles and Jars Because Pinterest- And It Worked

As I have mentioned before, I'm getting married next May and am definitely interested in DIY-ing as many aspects as possible, particularly the centerpieces. I have been asking friends and family to start saving glass bottles and jars so that I can experiment and try spray-painting them like the Pinterest picture below... But I wanted to throw all my wedding colors in the mix, not just one color.

The Drugstore Hair Product That Became My Favorite Find In Months

I love using leave-in conditioners in my hair. I use them every single time I wash my hair and I think some people find that surprising given I have very fine and very straight hair. Most girls I think are scared of looking greasy but this is completely avoidable if you find the right products and also use the conditioners at the right time.


The Eyeliner That Makes Me Work Too Hard

I love the drugstore and I get the majority of my makeup there. I think especially you can find some really amazing mascaras and foundations! The Tarte foundation that I posted about a few days ago is my first higher-end one. Every time I go into Sephora the sales ladies always ask what mascara I'm wearing. It's always drugstore and they always act so shocked (which somewhat surprises me). Anyways, I heard about a drugstore eyeliner in a blog that I follow and decided to pick it up.... In case the title wasn't give away enough, I really dislike it. (Please keep in mind this is just my humble opinion, if you love this, more power to you!)

How I Conceal My Undereyes

It's not exactly a secret that us nursing students are sleep deprived but entering a patients room with blue bags under your eyes doesn't exactly inspire confidence, so here's how I pretend to be bright-eyed and bushy tailed every single day of my life!
