10 Minute Summer Skincare Makeup Routine Products
Naked Poppy
Naked Poppy is an online clean beauty boutique where you take a 3-minute skin quiz that helps recommend the best shades and beauty products for you! And it’s insanely accurate – the Vapour Nectar lipstick was the same exact shade as a lip liner I love. And the Ere Perez carrot color pot shade the quiz selected looks amazing on my skin tone. Plus everything is clean on their website! Highly recommend checking them out, it will make your Summer skincare and beauty routine so easy!
Hack for Curled Lashes
Start by curing your lashes close to your eye. Move to the center of the lash curl again, and then one more time at the end. This will keep your lashes curled all day long.
Coravin Pivot for Keeping Wine Fresh After Opening
Sometimes on a really nice Tuesday night, I want to have a glass of wine. I love the Coravin Pivot because it keeps the entire bottle fresh for a month after your first glass!
Where to Find the Most Reasonably Priced Plants
Pro-tip, Home Depot has the best deals on large plants! I got two large (five feet tall) palm leaf plants for $50 each. While this may sound like a lot, anyone who’s shopped at their local nursery will know the plant prices can be crazy.
If you’re looking for something large for outside this Summer I highly recommend popping by your local Home Depot! But don’t just grab anything, make sure your plant looks healthy too!
