The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Access has already started and the Public Sale opens up July 21 and lasts until August 6! Shopping the sale during early access is exclusive to Nordstrom cardholders, but the sale opens up to everyone during the public sale. Although I don’t personally have a Nordstrom card, I still perused the sale catalog and the beauty exclusives and thought I’d post my personal picks here! *Note: I’m most likely NOT buying most of these things, but I’ve picked out what I like!Read More »

Puerto Rico Highlights | Travel Diary
Back in December/January, I took a week long trip to Puerto Rico with Jake, his brother, and his sister-in-law. We divided our time to stay a portion of the trip on the east side of the island, the west side, and in the city of San Juan. For the first third, we rented a car and stayed in Luquillo on the east side in an AirBnB.

Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Herb and Rosewater ($7)
To be honest, I mainly like this because spraying my face with it is fun and feels good and smells nice. The spray is multipurpose. I use it pretty much at any step of my face routine.. before/after moisturizing, before/after makeup application, etc. It’s hydrating, refreshing, and soothing. Rosewater also has a number of benefits because it has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-aging properties. I don’t think I can speak to those benefits but it’s nice to know that spraying this stuff on my face may go beyond being fun and feeling good.Read More »
