John Frieda Rethinks At Home Hair Color

John-Frieda-new-launches

As a beauty blogger, hair color is that one category of hair that still baffles me. Especially since I’m neither a brunette or blonde (or red head for that matter) but with black hair I don’t have as many options but I still find it fascinating the lengths and hours spent by people have to maintain their hair color. And if there’s one major hair trend we’re seeing right now is taking salon services at home. Or at least trying to cut down the visits in between those salon visits. John Frieda has always been an innovator in the category and are pushing the boundaries even further with their “Rethink Everything Rethink Color” campaign.

Get Swim Season Ready with Target


Thank you, Target, for sponsoring this post!

This has been a really exciting year for me (and it just started!). My New Years resolution was to be healthier and I gave up alcohol for all of January and started cycling regularly. I was able to score some Coachella tickets for April so I’ve been focused on getting back into a bikini and taking better care of myself after a decadent (aka dessert and champagne galore) holiday season. The first major milestone was making it through the first month without cheating (one step at a time) and it’s so motivating to see a difference already.

DIY Gifting Done Right

When it comes to holiday gifting, I love adding a personal touch to everything I give. As can be expected, everyone gets beauty gifts galore from me. To make every gift a bit more special and personalized, I love to break apart my gift sets, add in some stocking stuffers, and customize each gift in some fun wrappings. Holiday sets are a great way to get an awesome value on products, so it’s a great time to stock up. I partnered with Target to raid their beauty aisle and pick my favorite gift sets and packaging to create four awesome gifts for my friends.

Classic and Modern Holiday Makeup Inspiration


Thank you to Target for sponsoring this post!

target-#3

Nothing excites me like the holidays; it’s the best time of the year to indulge in some serious shimmer and break out the festive reds! To celebrate the season, I’m partnering with Target to create a modern and classic beauty look that’s easy to recreate.

There isn’t anything more classic then a red lip for the holidays. Add in some beach waves for that perfect tousled hair and a winged black liner, and you have a timeless look.

To recreate the look, I started by applying e.l.f. Hydrating Face Primer, followed by Covergirl Outlast Stay Luminous natural glow foundation to even out my skin tone. From there, I used the bronzers from the Pixi Contour Kit (bottom row; I mixed the two shades, but you can use one or the other depending on your skin tone) on my cheekbones, followed by the W3LL People Bio Brightener Stick for an added glow above the contour. I then applied the brightening powder from the Pixi Contour Kit (top row) to set the brightener and blend it with the bronzer. For a more intense highlight, stop after the Bio Brightener.

Color Wheel-Inspired Looks for Holiday


Thank you Target for promoting this post!

green-eyeshadow-look

The holidays are all about experimenting with makeup and Target gave me the fun challenge of creating two beauty looks based on the color wheel. The first look is using analogous colors (colors next to each other on the color wheel), while the second is all about complementary colors (colors that sit across from each other).

For these looks, I was inspired by the e.l.f. endless eyes 100 colors palette. What can’t you do with 100 eye shadow colors and for $15? It’s a steal! Like most of us, I gravitate to the eye palettes that have shades in my comfort zone. But since the start of my blog I’ve always recommended everyone get a blockbuster large palette to experiment with. e.l.f also has amazing makeup brushes at a fraction of what other brands sell them for. For the looks below, I used the e.l.f. brushes already in my makeup bag but, for anyone in need of a set, the e.l.f Essential Brushes and Cleaner Set has 5 makeup brushes and brush cleaner for only $10! It includes every type of brush you need to complete the looks below.
