    You GLOW gurl



    Summer is almost over, but your glow doesn't have to ever end. Highlighting is huge right now (as it should be), but I find the problem to be that so many of us think that a glow starts and ends with it. When you take you make your skincare routine a priority, a lit from within look will come effortlessly. Moisturizing is key, and serums should be your best friend. Below are my favorite products that achieve that 'yes, I slept for a full 12 hours, didn't skip yoga and drank a fat green juice this morning' look.


    Glossier Super Glow - This is a serum I use religiously. It honestly feels like a splash of water but after you pat it into your skin you feel the moisture immediately absorb. It's packed with Vitamin C and Magnesium which plumps and brightens skin. I always use this in the morning and at night before I moisturize.

    MasqueBar Foaming O2 Bubble Cleanser - Whenever I use this I see an immediate difference in my skin. This cleanser brightens and exfoliates. It goes onto your skin as a serum and within 30 seconds oxygenates, which makes it a genuinely fun product to use. It has Lemon + Orange Extracts which are natural brighteners!

    Wander Beauty On-The-Glow Bronzer - This puppy is another staple I can't live without. It's a dual ended bronzer and illuminator which is perfect for contouring for a night out or highlighting for a day friendly look. The illuminator side is great for cheek bones, cupid bow and brow bone. Tip: Use a clear balm and pat the illuminator on top for a completely non-sticky glossy look.

    Charlotte Tilbury Healthy Glow: Tinted Moisturizer - No foundation necessary! Just blend this glow lotion into your face and you're ready to go.

    Glossier Birthday Balm Dot Com - This has the most subtle hint of shimmer and the yummiest scent - birthday cake! I pat this into my pout but also use it on my eye lids or cheekbones. My favorite part about Balm Dot Com that a lot of people forget is that it's a skin salve not just a lip balm, making it designed for use all over!

    Avatara Light Up Sheet Mask - I try to do this one at least once a week. It brightens and evens skin tone and will leave your skin feeling oh so full.

    Cover FX Enhancer Drops - If you're looking for that intense glisten, this one is for you. This is a highlight I would mix into my foundation to give an even glow but you can definitely spot use it.

    Lastly, water water WATERRRR

    VERB Hair Product Review

    I can try 50 hair products and still be interested in the sea salt spray I see while out looking for a new top. It's kind of ridiculous but keeps me constantly finding new brands to obsess over.

    My latest experimentation has been with Verb Products. My favorites have hands down been the Ghost Oil  which is an integrated moringa oil blend that leaves my heat treated hair feeling healthy and moisturized. When I look for a shampoo, the main thing I look for is the scent and the consistency. I like for the product to feel nourishing as well as leave my hair smelling like it just came out of the salon. Verb's Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner did exactly that! The last thing I tried was the Ghost Dry Oil which I use everyday and it works to extend a blowout or just add a little shine to waves.

    Verb is also available here at Urban Outfitters!



    Style Inspo: Russell Westbrook

    Russell Westbrook was named the NBA MVP recently after setting a record with 42 triple-doubles last season, and it's no surprise that basketball isn't the only thing he comes out on top of. Always adding #FashionKing to his outfit posts, this man is a walking runway, and he knows it. From overalls to white jumpsuits to red plastic glasses and a Prada comic shirt- he's a man that knows what works and effortlessly quirks up an outfit. I'm actually obsessed.
