Go to my mark store for more skin care! There is so much more.




I have focused a lot on makeup, but to change things up let's go to skin care! Here are 9 tips to beautiful skin {as seen on yahoo!} that I think is very helpful. Also skin care products from Mark {that I use of course}.

tip #1 - your routine should be cleanse, tone, moisturize. feel free to skip the tone-sometimes.

tip #2- cleansing twice a day is not a must. Its ok to just rinse with water in the AM.

tip #3-  don't over exfoliate. it can lead to extra oily skin.

tip #4- moisturizer and lotions will help make wrinkles look better. Not that I have them yet.

tip #5- for puffy eyes choose a gel based with caffine rather a heavy cream that can boost swelling.

tip #6- wearing masks overnight can cause irritation and breakouts - so skip that.

tip #7- wear spf 30 under your spf makeup. the spf in your makeup is not enough to protect you- unless you pile it on. which I advise you not to.

tip #8- antiaging retinols should be worn at night because the sun breaks it down and can cause irritation, redness, peeling, and inflammation.

tip #9- get rid of blackheads using retinols and gentle acid peels-enough to unclog pores.

I'm so very excited to announce my first winner to my first giveaway! So excited- that I will do this again. Thanks to everyone for participating and reading my blog. You all are amazing. Every day I check my stats and I'm surprised by how many hits there are. I have so much gratitude for all of you. I will def. do another giveaway and hopefully you will win the next one.

outfit of the day: casual denim shorts and sperry's

what i wore: cynthia rowley tee, american eagle shorts, thrifted belt, juicy couture bracelet, belk's charm bracelet, old navy aviator shades, sperry's top-sider boat shoes. I wore this out for a few errands with the fiance. My car battery needed replacing, I have worn that thing out. Ex. leaving it on while taking naps during lunch. Don't do this ladies. Ha! This look is so comfy and definitely a repeat when I'm running around town.

haylee marie at eight months

Did you see her newest accessory? Her new earrings are too cute and super stylish!!! Our baby girl is 8 months old! We didn't visit our doctor this month but she unofficially weighs 16 lbs. She is a healthy baby girl! She still has two teeth. She loves and is learning new things: check back other posts for other loves and dislikes from past months. She loves: feed herself follow our voices stand with the assistances playing peekaboo Peaches Baked ziti Chicken Alfredo Apples Broccoli Carrots Avocados Yogurt Mac & Cheese Playing the piano the swing at the park playing with chip bags & baby wipe packages board books/library She is learning : pull up to standing position from sitting painting playing outdoors feeling & picking up objects/toys walk holding on to furniture  She hates: naps her multi-vitamin car seat  getting dressed up  getting pictures taken being by her...

outfit of the day: bold blues

  what i wore: express (gift) blouse, thrifted skirt, payless heels, belk's pearl necklace and earrings   This look makes me feel lady like and business savy. I wore this look to the office. Who says your work wardrobe has to be dull? This outfit is office appropriate, but fun with the bold blue skirt. Get away from those gray and black colors. At the corporate office there are rules to your attire: the length of your skirt needs to be at your knee, no sandals, no tank tops or strapless, no leggings, no jeans/jeggings, no house shoes/tennis shoes/stilettos. With many more to list, I won't take up your day. You have got the idea i'm sure. =)   I just wanted to share this with any ladies who adore Lilly Pulitzer, they are having a sale and most items are 80% off! Great deal! www.lillypulitzer.com
