Mid Century Modern Bedroom Details with AllModern

Happy Wednesday friends! I have a fun bedroom décor post for y’all today. sponsored by AllModern. We are almost finished getting our new apartment together and putting the finishing touches on our place. That being said we grabbed some mid century modern décor pieces from AllModern to put the finishing touches on our bedroom. We went with the Huron 26” Table Lamp to put on our nightstands and they are the perfect height especially if you have a taller headboard like we do, they really fill in all that space on either side of the bed. We got them in the brushed nickel and they really compliment the gray and white tones in our bedroom. We also added the Amarion Cotton Geometric Throw Pillow to our bed for a little color and subtle pattern and we love how those touches brought the whole room together! If you are looking to change up your space whether it be with furniture or art and décor AllModern is a great place to grab some pieces. They offer tons of styles and options at great price points! Make sure to check out this post to see more of my inspiration for how these bedroom details came together.

Dining Room Details with AllModern

Happy Monday Friends!

I have a fun dining room reveal to share with you today, sponsored by AllModern.

We recently moved into a new apartment that offered us space for a small dining room area and found the perfect set from AllModern. AllModern offers tons of options for any space you have, whether a small apartment or a large home they have great options for you! With the holidays among us we were in need of a cute and functional dining set that was also affordable. This set was at a great price point and came with the table and chairs which are so comfortable and easily go with any space!

You can find the set HERE the chairs come in tons of different colors and it’s currently on sale! It’s a great deal and also super easy to put together yourself! Again this is great for an apartment or would be perfect in a breakfast nook or small eating space in a home. This set seats four people comfortably as well as make the space feel larger since the table top is glass. I love the gold elements of the table and chair legs that they go with everything and act as a neutral in the apartment. I can’t say enough good things about AllModern and everything they offer. Make sure to check them out!

Glo Skin Beauty: Retinol + C Smoothing Peel Review

Hi friends! Happy Wednesday!

Today I wanted to share a review with you of the new Glo Skin Beauty Services in a Box Collection that just recently launched! First off plain and simple these services are amazing! If there is one thing you need to know that is it! They are amazing, include everything you could need, and worth the money for the box!

Let me give you a little background on the Services in a Box Collection.  Glo Skin Beauty saw a need for this service in our current situation with quarantine and staying home, which is why they brought the treatment room to our homes. “By reinterpreting, reinventing and reimagining the professional skincare ritual for today’s “socially distant” society,  they have created something entirely new and exceptionally beautiful. Introducing Glo Treatments-in-a-Box, designed exclusively for at-home use. These elevated essentials are sure to bring you renewed radiance and a beautifully restored glow. Glo Skin Beauty products are found everywhere professional skincare is performed. And thanks to this new, highly innovative, multi-step collection, your bathroom is no exception.”

Glo Skin Beauty first launched boxes back in May after realizing the need for at home professional grade skin care services due to COVID shutting down spas. The boxes actually sold out in less than a week and were even featured in Vogue! As a result, they decided to relaunch the Retinol + C Smoothing box and create two new treatments, GlyPro AHA Resurfacing Peel and Bio-Renew EGF Cell Repairing Facial.

I had the honor of chatting with Esthetician and Glo Skin Beauty Global Education Ambassador and Aesthetics lead, Stephanie Scalet as she personally walked me through the steps for the peel so I knew what to expect when doing it myself. Not only was she super sweet she was thorough with the instructions as well as let me know what to expect when going through the peel process. Super helpful and informative!

Now let’s talk about the actual peel itself. I received the Retinol + C Smoothing Peel which is meant to help restore your skin’s radiance with this professional-level, ultra smoothing retinol + vitamin C treatment. The kit includes all products and accessories to perform a complete at-home peel: bringing the treatment room to your bathroom! No appointment necessary. How awesome is that?! The box had absolutely everything I could possibly have needed for my at home peel, they thought of every detail down to the tissue to blot excess product, something I so appreciate!

For those of you that love to know the steps and detailed instructions this part is for your! The box comes with clear and concise instructions for the peel, there are no guessing games here! Below you will find the exact instructions from the box:

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Cleanse face with Glycolic Resurfacing Cleanser, avoiding the eye area.

2. Saturate one 2x2 gauze pad with Hydra-Bright Pro 5 Liquid Exfoliant (use about half of the bottle). Swipe evenly all over the face, then discard the gauze pad. Allow to dry for about 30 seconds, then saturate the second 2x2 gauze pad with remaining Hydra-Bright Pro 5 Liquid Exfoliant and repeat application. Discard gauze pad and allow the face to dry. 

3. Apply Renew Serum evenly to the face (use a pea size amount) and allow to dry for about 30- 60 seconds.

4. Protect sensitive areas of the face with Barrier Balm. Use cotton swabs to apply fully around each eye (encircle the entire orbital area), nostrils, lips and earlobes. Apply to any additional sensitive areas as needed. 

5. Pour contents of Retinol + C Peel Boost in Mask Cup. Open by pushing up on the white top until it snaps off. Take the silver ring and pull down to break the seal, then remove entire outer silver covering. Remove the rubber stopper. Use the Mask Brush to carefully apply a thin, even layer to the face, décolleté and back of hands. It is not recommended to apply to the neck area if you have sensitive skin. Leave on skin for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, use tissue to thoroughly blot off excess product by pressing into skin (do not rub or wipe product off completely). Note: a subtle yellow cast is normal to see after blotting product. Do not apply other products to face until the next morning.

6. Cleanse face the next morning with Gentle Cream Cleanser. To enhance your peel results, apply Renew Serum 3-5 nights per week.

POST PEEL CARE TIPS • Do not vigorously rub the skin, use mechanical scrubs or pick at the skin. • Do not exercise for 24-48 hours post peel. Avoid heat, steam and humidity (especially directly to face). Do not wax or use depilatories for 7 days post peel. • Apply sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher for a minimum of 14 days post peel.

Again I can’t recommend the Glo Skin Beauty Treatments-in-a-Box enough! I was able to take some me time and enjoy a spa service while still being in the comfort and safety of my own home! I’ve also shared a day 1 and day 5 photo below of my results, which only continue to get better! I’ve noticed a huge change in my skin, it looks brighter as well as  improved mask acne I’ve been getting from wearing a mask.  I’m so amazed at the level of quality and detail that is in this product! Definitely a 10 out of 10 for me!

The cut again with the faux wrap and gathers gives that ideal illusion of a smaller waist that we all want! This look is one of my favorites, super glam and just such a great festive party look! I made this my own black and white look with the white heels and the sparkly bag and earrings it just screams holiday to me! Cheers!

What would the holidays be without a red dress?! I feel like a red dress is a classic staple to have in your closet and the Andre in Merlot is perfection! Again a great cut for any figure with the detail at the waist! This is glittery deep red and perfect for holiday season! I love the length of all the dresses how they are great whether short or tall, curvy or slender, the cuts and style seem to really work for everyone! I also love the sleeves on this dress, I’m a sucker for a dress with sleeves! The red also is a great shade and tone for any occasion!

Saved my favorite for last! The Jinaan in Navy is my ideal dress! The fit and flare cut and the 3/4 sleeves with the detail and the neckline is something I would wear everyday! I absolutely love the fabric and how it’s easy to style with a fun bag or accessory it’s easy to make your own! Y’all know I love blue too so I naturally love this dress! I definitely channeled my inner Blair Waldorf for this look with the pearl and velvet head band and the bold silver heel and silver bag, again a look great for holiday and year round whether going to the office or out to dinner this dress is a MUST HAVE!!!!

Fall Season with London Times

I’ve teamed up with London Times to share a few pieces from their October collection and let me just tell you I’m obsessed! First off is a jumpsuit and y’all know I LOVE a good jumpsuit! You’ve been seeing quite a few of them here on the blog recently and they are here to stay! Just like a dress I love that a jumpsuit is a complete outfit, one piece and done! The Lu Jumpsuit in Navy is the most perfect outfit for fall and even going into the holidays! It’s super well made, double lined and has this beautiful metallic threading throughout to give it a little shine. Seriously so beautiful, I especially love the cut and style with pockets, belted waist, and perfect neckline! This is a timeless piece that you will wear over and over again! I paired it will a cranberry velvet bag and a light gold kitten heel as this is definitely something I could wear from office out to happy hour or shopping! A must have, check it out below!

Second look I want to share with y’all is the Anika Dress in Eggplant. This dress is perfect for all year long, the color is one of my favorites and one I especially love for Fall and Winter Season. I love the details on the cuffs of the sleeves as well as the different sheer fabric used for the sleeves along with the gathering to define a shape! I think the cut is so flattering for any body type as it is fitted and then floats away from the body helping emphasis an hourglass figure, what woman doesn’t love that! I dressed up this look with a metallic clutch and white heels with silver accents to go with the silver embellishment on the sleeves! Such a great dress, again another timeless piece that you will wear over and over again! Check it out!

Make sure to check out these pieces along with the other fabulous pieces from the London Times October Collection over on the London Times site HERE these are timeless pieces that are worth the investment! Let me know what your favorite look is below!

LC Lauren Conrad Sleepwear & Me Time

Can we all agree there is nothing better than coming home after a long day at work and slipping on your pj’s and curling up on the couch with a great Netflix show? I don’t know about you but I spend an insane amount of time in my pajamas, not sorry! I’m currently obsessed with the new LC Lauren Conrad Sleepwear line that just came out a few weeks ago! The fabrics are so buttery and soft and the styles are just perfect, my ideal sleepwear! Just so comfortable, practical and of course super cute!

The bobble pocket tank and bottoms are so adorable and perfect for lounging around the house. I’m obsessed with the details on the pocket and love that the pants are drawstring and have pockets!

I’m also living for the blue ruffle chemise that is just so chic but again that same super soft and buttery feel just so comfortable and love the timeless print on this one! These would also be super cute for bridesmaids or a girls trip the colors are stunning!

I’m loving these pieces so much! One of the things are working on right now is me time and learning when to pause from the busyness of life! It’s difficult but I will say one of the things I enjoy most is having the house to myself, hanging out in my pj’s watching my trashy reality tv shows or cleaning our place! It’s become so necessary because with so much going on I’ve struggled with not feeling overwhelmed. How do you make time for yourself and what do you like to do?

Review: Valentia Night Revive Retinol Serum

I have an awesome new product to tell you all about! I have been testing out the Night Revive Retinol Serum from Valentia. I must admit I have very sensitive skin so I am always skeptical to try new things on my face, however this product did not let me down. Everything is attests that is will do it does. This serum is to help diminish wrinkles, stimulate collagen, improve skin tone, manage breakouts, and condition skin. I'm in my early 20's and these things are important to me, I want to age gracefully and great skin care is one of the best ways to do that! Growing up I dealt with a lot of skin issues. I of course had blemishes and also fought with my skin as it was prone to severe breakouts and sensitivity as well as having combination skin so the struggle is real! This product from Valentia is great and I recommend it to anyone struggling with any of the issues above, you won't regret taking a chance and trying out this product no matter what skin type you have!

Check out Valentia!
