With Valentine’s Day just around the corner it’s time to stock up on the best lippies so you can ‘smooch‘ all night long! From a chic lipstick to a glossy gloss (hehe like what I did there :p), I am rounding up the best lip products for you to get your smooch on! My personal favorite? This Charlotte Tilbury lipstick (I am obsessed with the gold packaging)!

Got the winter skin blues? Yea, I feel ya…with the harsh winter months my skin has been in desperate need of a little refresh + I found the perfect product to do just that, Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Original Solid Jar.
Whether your skin is feeling dull + dry or you have some scarring or stretch marks you want to clear up before the warmer weather hits, I have found that Palmer’s Cocoa Butter has been the cure to all of my problems (at least for skincare that is hehe :p). The best part? You can pick up Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Original Solid Jar for $1 off – click HERE for details.
What I love about the Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Original Solid Jar are all of the amazing benefits it has for your skin. While using it consistently is key if you ask me, you can see results in just one use overnight.
Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Original Solid provides deep hydration all over. This unique formula melts into the skin, creating a protective moisture barrier that locks in moisture – this is ESSENTIAL for cold weather months!
From normal to dry to eczema prone skin, the Palmer’s Cocoa Butter rich solid formula effectively heals and softens, leaving your skin smooth, supple and beautiful. Ideal for deep moisturization, including overnight treatments – that means if you need to get glowing and moisturized legs + heels before a big event or date night, this product will be key for your wintertime skincare routine.
A little fun fact, developed in 1973, Palmer’s was the first cocoa butter product launched for the mass market! Can you believe that? Pretty awesome if you ask me. I have been using Palmer’s products for years. From lip treatments to body treatments + more, Palmer’s has become my go-to whenever my skin needs a refresher + that extra added moisture. Why does Palmer’s work? Because Cocoa Butter is a rich, natural moisturizer that hydrates and softens even the driest skin!
Get your hydration on this winter with Palmer’s Cocoa Butter…you will be happy you did!
I hope you all had a happy Monday, mine was not so great…other than a crazy workload I am dealing with a ton of website BS that is driving me crazy + making me not the most pleasant to be around (thank god for my boyfriend who is trying to keep me calm as I call person after person to get my site running how it should). Technology is such a blessing + a curse to be honest. Yes, technology allows me to connect with you all + share my favorite products, trends etc, BUT it is also causing my site to have so many issues which is driving me bananas. Anyways…one thing that puts me in a good mood is a beautiful scent…you know like a great smelling perfume!
If you haven’t already guessed it, today’s post is all about one of my favorite subscription services, Scentbird. While I am usually not one for signing up for monthly subscriptions, this one is totally worth the $14.95 a month (or use code MISSY30 for a 30% off discount at checkout). I tried Scentbird a few years ago actually + am still hooked. I love testing different fragrances + Scentbird gives you the ability to do that without buying full size bottles that cost a pretty penny at your local department store.
Scentbird allows you to pick a new designer scent each month that comes in a great travel size container as you can see here, making it perfect to bring with you on the go!
Because you get to try a new designer fragrance every month, it helps you find your perfect new scent. Maybe you like one scent for fall + another for spring, you can mix it up to help you find your new go-to.
There are over 450+ fragrances to choose from + you can reuse your same container on a monthly basis!
While I love it for all of the great designer perfumes, my boyfriend is getting into it for the designer colognes. He likes how it can fit in his pocket or in his car so he can make sure he smells good throughout the day…first impressions (and first scents) are so important!
Scentbird also makes for a great gift. For the upcoming holiday season, you can give the gift of smelling fresh by gifting a subscription to your friend, family member or loved one.
Also, if you are a commitment phobe, you can cancel your subscription at any time.
I hope ya’ll are having a great 3 day weekend! I have been relaxing, BBQing + today I am prepping for my Access Hollywood appearance tomorrow – so nerve-wracking yet exciting haha :p I will fill ya’ll in with details of when it will air as soon as I have ’em! The most nerve-wracking part? I have to show up with my hair + makeup READY…like what?! I am going to be on national television and I have to make sure I look flawless…luckily I have a secret weapon that gives me the hair of my dreams…HAIRDREAMS!
If you haven’t heard about Hairdreams, here is a little info. They are an industry leader when it comes to semi permanent hair extensions. They specialize in hair systems to help everyone achieve the long, thick hair they dream of…hence Hairdreams!
I got my Hairdreams extensions installed because I have to admit I am a hair extensions ADDICT hehe :p I have tried all different brands + types. From clip ins to tape ins to keratin bonded tip + more…by far my best results + most amazing experience has been with Hairdreams!
Here’s Why:
Hairdreams hair quality is unlike anything else I have experienced. The hair really blends well with your hair (because it is 100% human hair), feels natural and looks flawless. The application process was easy + quick. Why? Because they developed their own Laserbeamer Nano technology so you can apply multiple extension strands at a time cutting down the time you sit in the chair + making the placement more even to give a fuller look!
My hair is naturally thin + fine, luckily Hairdreams helped me achieve the thick locks I was dreaming of. What I also love is that with the Nano technology, the extensions blend so well into my hair, I can put my hair up in a pony tail or bun without anyone seeing the extensions! Plus when I wear my hair down…well you can see from the photos, my hair is simply dreamy hehe :p Like what I did there?
What I also love about Hairdreams hair is that if you take care of it properly, it can last 6 months plus by using the special haircare products they developed specifically to maintain their extensions. I have been using their shampoo, conditioner + other treatments and they have left my hair shiny, smooth + strong!
They also provide you a special brush to keep your mane looking flawless!
As I mentioned, I have tried countless brands + types of extensions but what I love about Hairdreams Laserbeamer Nano extensions is that they aren’t like clip ins where you need to constantly place them + remove them daily or like tape ins where you have to get them moved up every few weeks etc. Hairdreams lasts, is low maintenance + you wake up every morning with gorgeous hair, no application necessary! Just head to the salon once every 4-6 months + get new ones installed and you are good to go!

If there is one thing I learned over the years it is that your skincare is key! Ever since I was in middle school, I have been battling acne. When I was in middle school + high school it was acne on my face…primarily on my cheeks + forehead. Fast forward to now, my acne has spread from my chin + jaw line all the way to my chest, back + arms…UGH! Nothing is more frustrating than trying product after product with no visible results. What is a girl to do? Try one more line of products…and bam I found a winner!
La Roche Posay!
Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting the team behind my favorite skincare brand, La Roche Posay in person at a #DermClass they hosted with Dermstore. The event was beyond fun because it included an educational panel specifically talking about acne lead by Dermatologist Annie Chiu. Dr Chiu answered questions from attendees along with questions some of you shared with me on social!
I learned from her chat with us a few things and I am sharing them below!
1.Acne can affect people of all ages
2.While most people experience acne as teens, in adulthood it can continue but while as a teen acne is primarily found in your T-Zone area, as an adult it can spread to your chin, jawline + even your body all thanks to hormones
3.Acne scars should be combatted right away to prevent further deeper scars. Dr. Chiu’s suggestion was to see a dermatologist to go on either medication or try laser treatments. The longer it goes untreated, the worse it can be
4.While diet isn’t specifically tied to acne, if you live a healthy lifestyle it definitely helps when avoided acne
5.La Roche Posay products help combat acne without ever drying your skin (P.S. La Roche Posay was started in a hospital…who would have thought!
