If there’s one thing my dry skin and hair loves, it’s Virgin Coconut Oil. My kitchen is never without a jar, which is why when Yes to Carrots announced the launch of their Yes to Coconut line I was all about dropping everything to try it.
Get Lash-Tastic with Eylure (Katy Perry is!)
You’re dying over my lashes right? I am! When it comes to wearing fake lashes, I have a policy: Go big or go home. (Or rather, go big or just don’t bother). Then again, I have naturally pretty decent ones so the last thing I want to do is glue something to my eye-lid that’s the same size. For drama queens like me and everything in between, Eylure has it all and at affordable prices – Just ask Katy Perry!
I was first turned onto to Eylure through their collaboration with Katy Perry of which she was very involved in and designed the collection to her specifications. However, after attending a recent press event the brand, I have learned so much about fake lashes that I’m so excited to share with you! (Especially for my fellow readers that are terrible at applying them on themselves.)

NYC is the 2nd Most Wrinkle-Prone Region in the US! Guess why.
Living in the city that never sleeps is a unique experience filled with many perks ranging from the best shopping, 24 hour delivery services, and cultural experiences at every turn. All of these obvious “pluses” happen to also come with a big “minus”. According to a new study by Sperling’s BestPlaces and RoC Skincare, the Big Apple is the second most wrinkle-prone region in the U.S.!!! This study assesses lifestyle, occupational and environmental factors that can add wear and tear to the skin (of which NYC scored higher then average in all categories). Some leading factors include climate conditions, stress levels and not enough sleep!!
