Things I Wish I Had When My Luggage Was Missing

Image
I recently had a trip to Chicago cancelled due to the weather. The weirdest thing is somehow my luggage made it there, even though I didn’t. I was pretty easy going about the whole situation. However, when it came to my skincare… girl, I was stressed!! Anyone who knows me knows I take my skincare very seriously. So, imagine going 3, yes 3 days, without the items that you feel makes you your best self. I probably could live without some of the items in my luggage. But the following items are ones I needed and missed the most.  The first thing I missed in my skincare routine were my Olay Daily Facial Wipes. If you want to know how I really feel about these wipes, check out one of my previous blog here .

The glow my skin had the following day had my melanin poppin’!!! The major claim of Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay is that it’s a deep pore cleaning mask. This is done because it’s made with 100% natural calcium bentonite clay. You mix the clay with apple cider vinegar. And Voila! You’re on the road to having magnifi...

The Must Have Product That Changed My Skincare

Like all of you, I love makeup and skincare. I'd like to think I've tried almost every "it" product that comes out. I've used cult favorites like the Neutrogena makeup wipes to micellar water. Those products are are fine and dandy. However, there's one that I've been using since the beginning of the year that I am completely and utterly obsessed with. Now if I tell you what it is, you have to promise not to purchase all of them at your local Walmart. Just save a pack for me! The must have product in my skincare routine that has upped my game is... The Olay Daily Facial Wipes. They are initially dry to the touch, you run them under water, and Abracadabra! You have all you need to clean your face. You're probably asking yourself, "J, how did a dry cloth change your skincare?" Well, my friend. Let's start with what this product claims to do. According to Olay, this cloth has a 5-in-1 cleansing power of a makeup remover, scrub, toner,...
