Hey everyone! Today's Mani Monday is a lovely, minty green polish from the Deborah Lippmann Spring Reveries collection called Flowers In Her Hair. Can we just take a minute to appreciate the name of this polish? It just puts me in a nostalgic mood, just like seeing the baby green hue in this shade.

Happy Monday Today I wanted to share a pastel yellow polish from Deborah Lippmann's Spring Reveries collection which is this buttery shade called Build Me Up Buttercup. With the ever-warming weather, this color reminds me of laying out on a sunny beach while sipping a lemonade.

Hey guys! I wanted to share with you this month's round of favorite beauty products. I'm actually really pleased to say that this month I found a few new favorites that are seriously treading on holy grail material. Hello, can we say new favorite tinted moisturizer/foundation/bb cream/perfect-skin-maker? Oh yeah, I'm excited about this one. ;)

Check out the video plus a few extra goodies that I've been using non-stop below!

Hello everyone! Today's Manicure Monday is in the same vein of neon pastels that I mentioned in my Spring Trends post that I've been loving. Deborah Lippmann's Tiptoe Through The Tulips is a soft orange creamsicle shade that I knew I would love right away. Doesn't it remind you of those push-up pops some of us had as a kid? The sherbet pastel will be so perfect for the upcoming summer!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!! Today I have a lovely spring green shade to share with you which is absolutely perfect for today's greeny festivities. I have literally been loving wearing Spring Buds from Deborah Lippmann's Spring Reveries collection this past week and have gotten endless compliments on the color as well. It's such a unique, lively, and flattering pastel that is a perfect addition to my polish collection so I can't wait to share with you the whole review.

Hey everyone! Today's Manicure Monday is another color from the Deborah Lippmann Spring 2014 collection of lovely pastels. I'm sure I've mentioned this several times before, but I adore pastel nail polish. It's such an easy way to wear "crazy" colors while still looking feminine and chic and today's manicure is a perfect example of that. Blue Orchid is the perfect cornflower blue the welcome the fresh spring days to come.

Happy Monday! Today's manicure comes from Deborah Lippmann's 2014 Spring Collection which is chock full of the type of pretty pastels that make me absolutely giddy. I can be such a girly girl sometimes but I've always been a huge fan of minty green, lavender, periwinkle, and of course ballet pink. La Vie En Rose is an absolutely lovely semi-sheer baby pink and with Valentine's Day just around the corner I thought it would be perfect to share.

Happy New Year everyone!

Facing the fresh start of 2014, I am feeling immensely blessed at the amazing things that have happened this year. 2013 wasn't so much about the tangible things that I had, but more so reminders of not taking for granted the things that I've always had: my family. From my sister battling and overcoming cancer to welcoming our puppy Oreo (his instagram) into our lives, I feel like I can't reflect on the past year without a great depth of appreciation for the love around me, especially when it was least expected.

I wanted to write this first before getting into my favorites because I know it seems like each month a lot of the talk goes into consumable products and tips for surface-level beauty but ultimately this blog, my videos, and everything else I talk about means so much more to me than just things. You guys give me passion. It's about how we touch each others' lives and bring each other confidence, hope, and positivity in a world where there is far too little of it and far too much judgement and cruelty.

For this next year, it's my resolution to (of course) continue bringing you my thoughts on my favorite products, but more than that, to bring you the ability to be more yourself by loving yourself at every stage of your face and body. Hopefully recommending a few good things will give you more time to spend doing you. Let's all be more comfortable in our own skin in 2014!

With that, lets get on with this month's favs!

Hey everyone! This week's Manicure Monday came about because I wanted to have something that would be suitable for New Year's Eve festivities. There's just something about a classic black and silver combo that reminds me of the glittering lights that always come about during New Years celebrations. Suiting its name perfectly, I brought out Deborah Lippmann's I Love The Nightlife to match a paramount evening.

Hey guys! Today I wanted to do another holiday-themed Manicure Monday and what better excuse to wear a bunch of gold glitter than this? We are just a few short days away from Christmas so I had to represent such a glitzy, iconic nail color. Here I used a combo of China Glaze Passion and Deborah Lippmann Boom Boom Pow to give it that extra sparkle.

Now that we are full swing into the holiday season, I've been fully consumed with surrounding myself with Christmas songs and festive decorations. Since I carry my nails around with me at all times (who doesn't?) it only seemed appropriate to deck them out in the holiday spirit as well, and Deborah Lippmann Shake Your Money Maker was just the color to do it! Holographic tinsel and evergreen that literally leaps off your hands in the prettiest way! Ugh, I can't even take how pretty it is.

Let's check it out below.

Hey guys! This month has been pretty intense (as Halloween season always is for me) so a lot of my favorites this month have been products that have been my go-to's when I don't have time to think about what to apply for makeup. That's not to say that the new items aren't spectacular! On the contrary, included are a few products which may be my future holy grail, omg-can't-live-without-it products. Check out my loves below.

Today's Mani Monday is another Deborah Lippmann glitter polish from my recent Gilt haul I mentioned in my Ruby Red Slippers post. This offering is the mesmerizing Across The Universe which is described as "blazing blue and metallic green glam in sheerest navy". Wow. What an absolute stunner.
