Go Back-to-School in Style: Sally Hansen Crayola Insta-Dry Collection

Color Yourself Happy!
I am so excited to share about this super fun crayon-inspired nail polish collection from Sally Hansen and Crayola! This is the meeting of two of my favorite brands from two different worlds: the world of beauty and the world of school supplies. Nothing beats the pigment and quality that you get with Crayola crayons. I am completely brand-loyal to Crayola in the crayon and marker category. They simply color the best and are so vivid! The same goes with Sally Hansen products at the drugstore: awesome quality, great wear, and fantastic color selection. Well, these two color experts have teamed up to create a color-wheel crayon-inspired collection of Inta-Dry polishes! 

Sharpen those pencils, pack that apple, and add the final touch to your back-to-school look in an instant! The new Sally Hansen + Crayola Insta-Dri Collection transports you back to that care-free time of coloring with crayons, sketching out vibrant creations, and jumping back into the September back to school season. Color authorities Crayola and Sally Hansen joined forces to offer a bright, bold, and fun suite of hues that dry in just 60 seconds — so no time is wasted for the woman on the go. With a 60 second dry time, Sally Hansen Insta-Dri®Nail Color’s 3-in-1 formula features a built-in base and top coat to provide shiny, extended wear in a single step in just one stroke. These color specialists did their homework: From a saturated red to a marvelously mod white, here are the 12 new, specially designed shades inspired directly by the Crayola crayon colors we all know and love.


Wild Strawberry
Ripe and ravishing, this primary red crème shade is a classic.

Sunset Orange
As bold as it is beautiful, this hue conjures memories of blissful beachy evenings.

Carnation Pink
Everything’s coming up carnations in this vivid, pretty pink.

Dandelion
Picked right from a sprawling field, this sunny saturated yellow is a force of nature.

Granny Smith Apple
Take it to the tart side in this vivaciously verdant polish.

Cerulean
Rock this hue, it’s a go-to blue for back to school. 

Vivid Violet
Cultivate the feeling of floral fancy in this purple shade that elevates any first-day-of-school outfit.

White
No better way to kick off the year than with a blank slate. Be crisper than a white board with this pristine white.

Razzmatazz
It’s your time to shine bright and be a dazzling star with this raspberry hue.

Scarlet
Show off your summer tan with this red hot mani.

Denim
Casually cool, this jean-ius indigo hue goes with everything.

Purple Heart
Be the Queen Bee in this courageously colorful purple.


Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri® is #1 in the quick-dry segment. The Sally Hansen X Crayola Insta-Dri Back To School Collection will be available July 2017. Crayola is the worldwide leader in children’s creative expression products. The Crayola brand is known for its iconic Crayola crayons, and portfolio of colorful and innovative art tools, crafting activities and creative toys.

Be sure to scoop up this adorable Sally Hansen Crayola InstaDri collection while it is available. I just love it!!! 

As always, thanks for reading! Happy Back-to-School! :)

When it comes to luxury spa-like bath products, nothing beats the enticing scents of the products from Rituals. I am super excited about their recent re-launch of the Ritual of Hamman Collection. I was able to try out a few items from the line and I am totally obcessed with this spa scent. 

Transform your bathroom into a luxurious spa with the NEW Ritual of Hammam:

Close your eyes and experience the heat of your own wellness ceremony. Inspired by one of the oldest cleansing traditions in the world, The Ritual of Hammam has been carefully designed to meet the needs of modern times. Enjoy the range of luxury body products that relax our body and purify the mind with the revitalizing fragrance of refreshing eucalyptus.

For the re-launch, Rituals introduced new luxury packaging design that makes the updated and sophisticated Hammam fragrance even more appealing. Create your own luxury home spa with their renewed Hammam collection and discover a purifying ceremony that promotes well-being for body and soul.

YOUR HAMMAM RITUAL IN 5 STEPS:
Here are some tips from Rituals for getting the most out of your Ritual of Hamman Experience:

2. Follow with the Hot Scrub ($29), which contains purifying sea salt, warming ginger and refreshing eucalyptus, immediately reducing fatigue and boosting your mood. Apply on top of the Black Soap for an even smoother result.

3. Continue with the Body Mud ($17) with mineral-rich rhassoul clay, a mud that intensively purifies and polishes the skin by helping to remove dead skin cells.

4. Use the Foaming Shower Gel ($15), containing a purifying, refreshing fragrance that pleasantly and softly cleanses the skin. The gel also soothes and helps the skin to repair itself.

5. After you shower, apply the soothing NEW Body Cream ($33) to the body for a nourished and toned skin.

Summer Beauty Hacks with L’Oréal Paris Celebrity Makeup Artist, Sir John

Summer Beauty Hacks
with L’Oréal Paris Celebrity Makeup Artist, Sir John

Nothing beats the Summer heat for fun times in the sun. However, Summer fun can sure wreak havoc on your makeup and skin! From melting makeup, to sunburns, to trying to find a glow...what is a girl to do? 

Luckily, L’Oréal Paris Celebrity Makeup Artist, Sir John has some fantastic tips for Summer beauty and L’Oréal Paris has some great products to help you out along the way. I was able to try out these products and road-test these tips and I can tell ya'll. They do work!  




SUMMER BEAUTY HACK #1: COVERING A SUNBURN
SIR JOHN TIP: While everyone tries to avoid getting a sunburn, unfortunately sometimes it still happens. Luckily, there are some easy ways to cover it up. Sir John recommends using the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Total Cover Foundation ($12.99) along with a green color corrector as found in the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Total Cover Color Correcting Kit. The green will neutralize the redness on skin. Using a makeup sponge like the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Blend Artist Concealer Blender ($7.99), dab it into places that are burned the most - areas like your nose and cheekbone.

No, I didn't actually end up with a sunburn on my face this summer (I am very diligent with SPF...especially on my face). However, sometimes I do still get too much sun on my nose and I don't want my nose to look darker than the rest of my face. So, I used these tips to neutralize the color on my nose and even out my skintone. 

SUMMER BEAUTY HACK #2: HOW TO USE MELT-PROOF MAKEUP
SIR JOHN TIP: Melting makeup doesn’t have to be synonymous with heat and humidity. Sir John has a trick to tame eyebrows and keep them in place to weather the elements  – spraying hairspray on a thin toothbrush and then gently rubbing it on the brows (in more extreme cases like when on tour with clients, he has used a glue stick in place of hairspray). He then suggests penciling them in with an eye brow pencil like the L’Oréal Paris Brow Stylist Definer ($8.99). He also suggests using a waterproof mascara like the L'Oreal Paris Lash Paradise Waterproof Mascara ($9.99).

Melting makeup is no joke in the super hot, sunny, and humid Georgia climate that I live in. Sometimes it feels like an impossible feat to just get your makeup to stay on in the Summer. Plus, my brows are super unruly. So, I always appreciate tips about how to keep them tamed. The L’Oréal Paris Brow Stylist Definer and the L'Oreal Paris Lash Paradise Waterproof Mascara are now new favorites of mine!



SUMMER BEAUTY HACK #3: HOW TO FAUX THE JLO SUMMER GLOW
SIR JOHN TIP: To get the perfect faux glow, Sir John recommends exfoliating with a product like the L’Oréal Pure-Clay Exfoliate and Refine Cleanser ($6.99) the night before you want to tan to prep skin. Then use a self-tanner and apply all over face and body for an even and natural-looking glow. Sir John loves the L'Oreal Paris Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Serum ($10.99) as it’s easy to apply and lasts up to two weeks.


I am all about drugstore skincare and self tanners! I absolutely love the glow that I get from the L'Oreal Paris Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Serum. It is so natural-looking and as a super fair skinned girl, it is my best way to get "tan". Plus, the L’Oréal Pure-Clay line of cleansers are fantastic. There are three different ones and I just love the cleanse that I get from these. 



If you already have a gorgeous glow but want to add some highlight to your face, mix a liquid highlighter like the L’Oréal Paris True Match Lumi Liquid Glow Illuminator ($12.99) with a hydrating facial moisturizer from the L’Oréal Paris Hydra Genius ($17.99) line and apply it on your desired areas.

No Summer glow is complete without a touch of highlighter and some dewy moisturized skin! I am obcessed with the L’Oréal Paris True Match Lumi Liquid Glow Illuminator! Just a touch of this highlighter to key areas of my face (top of cheekbows, brow, center of nose, and chin) gives gorgeous dimension! Plus, I love the texture of the L’Oréal Paris Hydra Genius moisturizer. It plumps up the skin nicely and leaves me so hydrated. 

I hope these tips are helpful to you! I sure found them to be great ways to beat the heat this Summer with my beauty products from L'Oreal Paris!

As always, thanks so much for reading!
XOXO!!!

Oka-B Shoes: Eco-Friendly and So Cute: Review and Discount Code!

 Affiliate Link Press Sample


Oka-B Shoes: Eco-Friendly and Cute!
Nothing makes a girl feel cute quite like a pair of cute shoes. Oka-B shoes are not only cute, but they are super comfortable and earth-friendly, too! 

I can confidently say that Oka-B shoes are my most-worn shoe brand in the Spring and Summer as I have quite a collection. There are so many colors and styles. They are super cute! So, that of course excites me...but really, it is the comfort factor that won me over. They are just so comfortable to wear while not looking at all like "comfort shoes". I have had various foot problems over the past few years. Luckily, treatment from a podiatrist has my feet feeling much better. However, I have to be very selective with my foot wear. If I am in uncomfortable shoes, they can trigger foot pain that can leave my feet achy for days. I am so happy that my Oka-B shoes leave my feet feeling good and happy! Oka-B shoes were actually designed for comfort. The massaging footbed is based on the principals of reflexology. It is contoured to the foot perfectly with little nubby parts that hit in just the right spots. 


A Little Bit of Background Info on Oka-B:
Oka-B shoes are made of 20% recycled materials. Do you know what else? They are recyclable! Really!!! Just send your old ones in to the company and they can grind them up to make new shoes! The shoes are made of a microplast material that resists bacteria and are very easy to clean: actually, they are dishwasher safe! It actually amazes me how these Oka-B shoes hold up and stay new-looking for the longest time. I swear, they never wear out! These shoes are extremely durable and shoe mininal, if any, wear...even after years of wear! The shoes are very resistant to dirt...so, go ahead and go for those white flip-flops...they really will stay white: pretty impressive! Interesting side note: the shoes smell like vanilla...seriously! It is some sort of natural by-product of their production. Even after washing and wearing, they are still vanilla scented! LOVE IT!
