Best eye make up remover!!
Did you know you can also use vitamin E oil as eye makeup remover?! I use Burts Bees mama Bee oil. I've been finding make up removing cloths aren't that great for getting all my mascara off. Put a few drops of Burts Bees Mama Bee oil on a cotton round and it breaks down the toughest mascara! Get it anywhere Burts Bees products are sold :)

My at home spa FAVORITES
If you love baths as much as I do then this post is for you! I have a few products that I have to have on hand and I hope you try them and love them as much as I do!!
Dr. Teals Epsom salt and bubble bath soap
Dr. Teals is essential in my at home spa session routine. They have different types like lavender for relaxation or a detox/ energizing one and I love them all. Epsom salt has many amazing benefits from not only helping relax muscles but also can help calm your nervous system, balance calcium levels, help with joint pain, and help you reach that beloved deep sleep. go pick up some dr. teals at Target, Walmart, CVS, pretty much anywhere!
Bath Bombs
Here in Richmond we have a store called Lush. Lush makes the most amazing bath bombs you will ever see!! They even have glitter bath bombs which are really fun! I dont recommend using bubble bath with them because then you can't see them "explode" and trust me, you'll want to see it.
Body Scrubs

A friend of mine got me this body scrub called Ocean Rain from a store in downtown Fredericksburg called Ladyburg. I've fallen in love with everything about it. My favorite thing is it doesn't just rub my skin raw like most body scrubs I've tried. When I rinse it off my skin feels exfoliated AND moisturized. If you're ever in downtown Fredericksburg i highly recommend picking up some!!
Oils
My favorite oil to add to my baths is a vitamin E oil from Trader Joes. I also add a few drops of this to my moisturizer at night! Vitamin E is great for anti aging. Its never too early to do a little anti aging every once in a while!
Life is too short so just take a deep breath and let your body and mind relax into a nice warm bubble bath with your favorite candles. You deserve it!!

Recently.
My life recently has become busy. Not in the "working all the time" kind of way... but in the Im getting married to my best friend in less than 2 months!! Ive also come out with a cover video of James Bays 'Let It Go'. Between seating charts, bridal showers, memorizing lyrics, vocally recording, music video recording, writing for future projects, and working I'm the busiest I've ever been! Im keeping on my Skin Care routine and trying to drink more water instead of caffeine which is really difficult. Why am I telling you al about my life right now?! Well if you haven't noticed I haven't posted as much lately because of this! Tackling everything at once is impossible. Im taking on what I can so I don't lost my sanity!! Regardless, I'm Still always your Esthetician so please come to me with any questions you have about your skin or a product!!
Review post 4.11.16
Hey beauties!!! So I've been trying a few products I'm in love with. This post will be a little different because I'm including 2 make up products I've recently tried from Tarte that are not only a good price, but have also been AMAZING on my skin!!
Tarte has recently come out with a skincare line and I could not be more excited!!! So far I have only tried the Deep Dive Cleansing Gel and I think I've found my summer cleanser. This cleanser makes me feel refreshed and hydrated without feeling dried out since its a gel cleanser. AND can I just say this entire bottle was only 25.00?!! For this quality skin care product I was falling in love so hard with Tarte. Remember, gel cleansers are best for oily to normal skin types! So if you have dry skin this is not the product for you. I am DYING to try their Rainforest of the Sea Moisturizer and their Rainforest of the Sea Boosting Mist! When I do I'll let you know!
The next product from Tarte I want to give some love is their Rainforest of the sea Water based foundation. Now, when I first heard water based i immediately thought it was going to be an extremely watered down foundation. I even asked one of the Sephora girls if the taste foundation would be better over Urban Decays Naked foundation. Im not a make up person, I'm just a healthy skin person so I honestly had NO idea! She informed me the taste foundations are more natural and much better for your skin! At only 25.00, I was completely sold.
The final product from Tarte I want to completely brag about is their Tartelette 2 Eyeshadow palette!! I NEVER post about make up. Im not a make up artist in any way. I know how to do the basics and thats it. Ive tried many pallets before but this one took me by surprise. All these colors go together so its very hard for me to mess up which I haven't by the way ;) They have such good pigment and go on so smooth...not to mention these products are also non harming to your skin!
I know how this looks...all Tarte products she must have gotten paid to post this from tarte themselves. Not true at ALL!! All my posts are from my own personal experience without any sway from the companies. everything I review, I try. Make good choices my skin-a-holics!!
