We are now under the 3 month mark for our wedding and I am decidedly beginning to panic..but within reason. As with many other aspects of the wedding, I had no idea what I wanted when it came to my wedding shoes. Heels or flats? Solid or a print? Sparkly or…just kidding, they were always going to be sparkly. I thought that maybe I wanted to have two pairs of shoes – one heels, and one flats, so I could wear the heels to the ceremony and the flats for the rest of the night. But wedding shoes can be…

How to Clean Fake Lashes
If you’ve been reading my blog for a while (or honestly not that long at all) you may remember my semi-recent posts about how I clean my beauty blenders and makeup brushes. Well, after a visit to a certain not-so-scary Halloween party, I discovered another beauty item that may need cleaning: false lashes! I don’t wear lashes all that often, mostly for special days or just when I feel like it. You obviously don’t have to clean your lashes if you plan on tossing them after one use, but I like to get multiple wears out of each pair of…

Teddy’s Birthday + How to Make Pupcakes
Thursday was a very special day for us – it was Teddy’s birthday! Teddy turned 5 on September 21. Obviously since he is a rescue we have no way of knowing if this is his actual birthday, but it’s the day the humane society said was his birthday so it’s what we go with 🙂 For Teddy’s birthday we had a little celebration complete with presents and special treats! For Teddy’s birthday we basically used it as an excuse to get some new puppy things we had been looking at for a while, haha. The first thing we got him…

How I Clean My Makeup Brushes
A few months ago I had a post about how to deep clean your beauty blenders, and I got a lot of nice feedback and messages saying it was really helpful! I decided to do a follow up post about how I wash my actual makeup brushes. After all, they need cleaning too! Washing makeup brushes is honestly a bit of a chore, but it is an absolutely necessary one. I used to wash them less frequently than I do now (we’re talking YEARS ago when I first got into makeup) but I noticed that I got more breakouts on…

How to Deep Clean a Beauty Blender
Like any makeup addict, I swear by and adore my Beauty Blender. Also like any makeup addict, I HATE cleaning my makeup brushes and the same goes for my makeup sponges. It’s especially important to wash out sponges regularly because they can grow bacteria so easily, but sometimes it seems like nothing can get them truly clean again. Today I have a super easy and relatively quick method to get your beauty blenders sparkling clean again!! I was taught this method by my friend Ana, who also turned me into a beauty blender fan to begin with, so she’s something of…

How to Visit All 4 WDW Parks in 1 Day
Conquering all four Walt Disney World parks in the same day seems to be a pretty popular goal for people who visit. Having lived here for a few years now, I’ve accomplished it a few times and it is NOT as hard as one may think!! Doing all 4 parks in one day is practically old hat for us now, but there is definitely a right way and a wrong way to do it, imo…and I’m about to tell you the RIGHT way!! 🙂 The most recent time I did all 4 parks in 1 day was when our friend Brandon came…
