I love getting all dolled up, but I’d be lying if I said I was a beauty guru. I most certainly am not! But I do enjoy sharing helpful tips and tricks when it comes to hair, makeup, and skincare that work for me. And I love sharing new products I’ve fallen in love with as well. Find those here!
I’m no skin expert (definitely not a beauty blogger over here!) but I will say that by working with brands and experimenting more lately, I have gotten more knowledgeable about skincare. I used to know literally NOTHING and now I’m at least interested in ingredients, a routine, and switching up my beauty products season by season – which is what I wanted to talk about with y’all today! The weather…

As part of my goal to get better at skincare, I want to learn about more than just what products to use. Y’all know I love testing things out and giving recommendations when I find something I love (like Tula products or what the heck to do for hormonal acne – more on this later), and then I also like to get to the WHY behind certain issues. What I’ve…
If y’all have seen my IG stories over the last week or so, you know I’m doing a MAJOR bathroom cleanout. I was actually kind of embarrassed to put it out for the world because I know it’s out of control and excessive, but y’all have to remember that a lot of it is for work. I’m constantly being sent or buying new products to try them out, and then…
Y’all know that I’ve been trying to get better at skincare and slowly but surely I think I’m getting there! Some days I forget to do anything but throw on moisturizer or whatever, but some days, man some days I’m on it! The thing about skincare is that it’s kind of like working out. You really do see positive changes the more effort or time you put into the routine…
Are y’all sick of me talking about Tula yet?! HA! I feel like between the posts and Stories, I’m always mentioning it, but I just love it so much. It’s the one brand that’s stuck around throughout the years and I feel like I must share the info! Plus, it’s something I always end up gifting a lot of Tula this time of year – my friends, sisters and mama…
Everyone has that gal in their life that is beauty OBSESSED and basically lives in the cosmetics store…yeah? Well if that is you, your mom, your sister or your BFF this gift guide is the perfect place to find all their holiday gifts this season! Lancome Mascara – I am sharing two mascaras because these are very different formulas. This one has a dry formula that is volumizing/thickening as well…
The annual Sephora sale is here and honestly my favorites are still the same with a few additions. Why change up your routine if it’s working, ya know what I mean? These items are my tried and true picks though and I do use them every time I get ready so I can vouch for them 100%. Starting today ’til the 12th, take 20% if you’re a VIB member with…
With the holidays just around the corner and all the shopping that goes with it, I thought it would be a great time to weigh in on my experience with the Dyson hair dryer. Around this time last year, I was talking about how much I loved my Drybar blowdryer. And so since I’ve gotten a new one and expanded my horizons, I felt like I needed to let y’all…
OK y’all, you know I like to share the goods with you when I stumble across something good, and today that involves mascara primer. It’s not something I’ve used until the last few months, and now I’m straight HOOKED. I’ve known about face primer for years and love it, but honestly, it’s nothing in comparison to mascara primer. Let me break down how it changed my lash game for ya.…
If you could only see my bathroom, then you’d quickly realize that I am quite the hair product junkie. Some girls love makeup and lipstick colors and nail polish, well I love hair products! And I love trying new ones too! But even still, I have a few holy grail products that I keep come backing to. One of my go-to hair products for when I want lots of height…
I’m pretty sure one of the best inventions of this decade has been balayage hair. Am I wrong?! I not only love how it looks, but it’s low maintenance, natural, and the best part – you only need to go in for it a couple times a year. I never need it more than 2x a year and I think it’s because of a few things. One, my hairdresser does…
I’ve shared that I use Tula on Insta Stories before, but it wasn’t until recently that I realized I hadn’t dedicated a blog post to it. Which is kinda funny because I’ve been literally using it for years and it’s one of my favorite skincare lines. I’ve been using them in some way or another since all the way back when they were first getting started – maybe back in…
Ever since I cut my hair, I haven’t really experimented with it much. I usually just round brush it dry, maybe do a little velcro-roller action, and then I’m done. But when I was at the beach last month with my friend Liz, she told me she is obsessed with her Beachwaver and inspired me to try mine. I’ve actually had this bad boy in my bathroom for almost 2…
Y’all, I have to apologize. I’ve been promising more hair content for months, and it’s taken me SO long! Sometimes I struggle with posting beauty content until I feel like I’m a pro with the style or topic – because I actually want to share quality content instead of me figuring something out, ya know? Also, I’m just a perfectionist like that. I’ve been sharing quick tips on Instagram (like…
I’ll be honest that I’ve been blessed with pretty regular skin. I don’t get a ton of breakouts and it honestly doesn’t give me TOO much of an issue, but y’all know I’ve been trying to take better care of it. Honestly, it not being too much of a problem area has made me lazy with it over the years – and I thought it was time to change that.…
Even though we talk a lot about beauty on BTD and I’m a Southern girl who loves to get all dolled up on occasion, honestly, I’m pretty low maintenance with my routine. Rarely am I into something that takes more than 20 minutes or makes me look unnatural. I’m much more into easy, effortless beauty routines or products. Because as you probably know, I’m constantly running 20 minutes behind, ha!
Like most women reading this post, I haven’t always been comfortable (slash GOOD) at taking a compliment. I don’t know if it’s part of being female, or if it’s a personality thing, but I suck at accepting nice words face-to-face. Just the other day when leaving an industry event, the sweetest woman came up to me to shed some compliments. She was a reader of BTD (which BTW, is always…
