And luckily for me, rose-infused and scented skincare products are trending so I have a lot of products to choose from! Not only do these products smell great, but they have amazing benefits for your skin!… View Post
I’ve said this before, but I’m not a huge fan of Valentine’s Day. It’s not that I’m jaded or bitter or anything, haha, it’s just that I think it’s a really commercialized and silly holiday. Plus, all the red and pink starts to get to me after awhile! BUT that doesn’t mean that I don’t like to get some… View Post
