#WinterSkinProblems and 4 Tips for Solving Them

#WinterSkinProblems and 4 Tips for Solving Them
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Olay. The opinions and text are all mine. As far as skin goes, I’ve always been pretty lucky. I get hormonal breakouts on my chin, and I have some gnarly dark circles that have existed since I was born (thanks, genetics), but my real skin woes come in the form of dry skin. It could be 80 degrees and humid, and I’ll still probably have chapped lips and dry under eyes if I’m not keeping on top of my skincare, but in the winter, the problem is elevated. Fun… View Post

How I Give Myself a DIY Blowout at Home ft. Pantene
Hair has always been a “the grass is always greener” type thing for me. I was born with fine, stick straight hair that doesn’t hold any style for more than a few hours. My best friend on the other hand, has wild, curly hair that’s full of volume but won’t ever lay the way she wants it to. And we always wanted to trade. Fortunately, in lieu of swapping ‘dos, we both learned how to best manage the hair we had. Me? I figured out that my hair was only ever going to cooperate if I had the right tools… View Post
