Summer Skin Routine

-
Hey gems!
So the summer has had a lot of ups and downs and the pandemic is still affecting a lot of us. That being said I am spending so much time outside in the sun this year that I noticed my skin reacting and needed to change up my skin care routine!

1. Hydrating
My skin has never been oily or dry it's always just in the middle depending on the day. What I found is that it was so dry, flaking off and no matter how much I moisturized it didn't improve. I started drinking tones more water and noticed almost immediately that my skin was much more hydrated too and not at all flaking. I now try to drink 4-8 water bottles everyday and my skin is thriving!! Not to mention all the other benefits that come along with this!

2. Low/No makeup
Because of the gloriousness that is WFH, my skin has gotten a great break from makeup, my pores have a new life and I am way more confident being without makeup for every Zoom call. Don't get me wrong I love getting dressed up once a week to go into the office but every other day I stick to makeup free and not only has it helped my skin heal and be healthier, but my confidence has also grown so much in terms of not wearing makeup. 

3. Moisturizing
I am someone who always moisturized my skin at the end of the day, but I now really take the intiative to moisturize both in the morning and before bed. This way I feel like I can protect my skin and coat prior to sunscreen, as well as moisturize after a long day in the sun!

Yay for healthy skin, happy smiles and some good sleep!

Talk soon gems!

New Year Update!

-
 Hi Gems,  Wow it has been a while. The last time I wrote and published on here was in October which honestly feels like a lifetime. As the holidays came and went, we rang in the new year and I find myself thinking a lot about not only lessons learned this year but the direction I want to aim for when going into 2024.  As you may know if you follow my other platforms, I am getting married this year which feels surreal! It's been so far away for so long and here we are counting down less then a year! I also am so proud of Tia things on Instagram , TikTok and Youtube because I really have pushed myself to create more all while having fun! With all of this in mind, here are some of my goals going into 2024: 1. Have a life outside of wedding planning  Wedding planning has genuinely been so fun and even in the stress-inducing times, I would not change anything for the world. I am so proud of how much we have done, saved, planned, etc. as we put together our perfect day....

Furniture shopping

 Hey gems,  I hope you are all enjoying the sunshine as summer is approaching! We have been busy trying to pick out all the furniture for the new place. It has been quite a wild journey to get here so I thought I would take some time to review everything that has been going on! Firstly, my favourite store by far is Structube , it is my favourite place and has such a great variety of items but way less overwhelming then a big store like Ikea.  The first thing we picked is our dining table and chairs. The chairs are warm brown leather and the table has a fake live edge that I LOVE! This was the easiest item to choose by far! This is all in a warm theme and tones that will go well with the dark floors and cabinets. We also have been very budget conscious in the whole process and the table was a great price for a larger size so this was a no-brainer.  The next main items I picked out are decor because I had some very specific ideas like a gallery wall and big mirrors! We...

She's a wife!

Hi gems, after soooo much time away from the blog I am back with a life update! I have now been married for a month and had the most incredible honeymoon! We are just getting back home and resetting into a routine. The switch back to reality isn't an easy one but we are still on cloud nine from the events of the summer so that certainly helps! So with that said I think we are well overdo on a life update! Your girl is welcoming fall after a month in Europe and an incredible summer! Not only did my bestfriends get married in the most magical day, but we got to have a summer filled with so many celebrations. Summer 2024 will go down in the history books for sure as a summer of love. I also had another major life change earlier in the summer, I changed job! After five years at an agency, with the people I loved and who taught me so much. I got an opportunity at a company that is HUGE and rated a top company to work for. The job itself and benefits made it a deal I could not turn down....
