mondays with mark:9 tips for skin care + giveaway WINNER!


Ok so after I wash my face- I don't smile at myself- well...ha! JK. I really don't, but I was amused with this shot of myself. And my skin is purrttyyy! Thanks to Mark skincare products!

mark Help Wanted Anti-Acne Exfoliating Cleanser

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: outdoor fall look

    what i wore: gap long sleeve top, target jeggings and boots, belk's bag   I wore this to my cousin's birthday party. It was a lovely fall day, sunny and perfect cool weather for a game of corn hole. We also had lunch and drinks out on their patio. This outfit was great for the outdoor activities and a birthday gathering.     Thank you for reading. Have a lovely rest of the week! 

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.

outfit of the day: classic vest

  what i wore: express button up, old navy vest, f21 jeans, gift boots.   Classic pieces stay for a lifetime. I have had this vest for a long time. Traditional yet in style. Not popular, but likable. A little bit of old fashion and tradition may not be popular, may go back "50 years" but this vest seems to never fade out of style for me.
