Beauty Trends: Makeup Swap Spring 2018

Hey Butterflies. I recently participated in a blogger beauty swap, hosted by beauty blogger Mary Yowell of PrettyOnADime.com. I received a package from Missouri beauty & lifestyle blogger Amber (@xoxoammarie) of xoxoAm.com

Amber sent me products from two of my favorite beauty brands; e.l.f. and NYX. I love both of these brands because they make quality beauty products for reasonable prices. I received an e.l.f. brand lip exfoliator, a metallic NYX prismatic eyeshadow in Punk Heart, a black liner from the NYX Epic Ink Collection and a lip dye in Victorian which is also from the NYX Epic Ink Collection.

Beauty Trends: Jhené Aiko Shares Her Skincare Routine

Hey Beautiful Butterflies and fellow Soulmates. A few days ago alternative r&b/neo-soul singer Jhené Aiko shared a photo of herself on Instagram and a fan commented on the photo asking her about her enchantedly beautiful glowing skin and in response, because she’s such a kind soul Jhené shared her skincare routine with the world. In a reply back to the commenter Jhené explained that she gets Fraxel twice a year, then keeps up the results with a list of other products. Fraxel is a non-surgical laser treatment used for facial rejuvenation. Fraxel treatment improves tone, texture, and radiance for aging, sun damaged, or scarred skin.
