Tips and Tricks: The Ultimate Gift Guide

Black Friday and Christmas is coming around the corner real quick. Here are my recommendations for gift giving this holiday season! Getting gifts for your friends, your family, and maybe even yourself can be stressful. So I felt that I should make it easier by recommending some great gift/gift sets for the most loved people in your life. Obviously gifts don't make the holiday special (it's the people that do) but it doesn't hurt to show them your appreciation. So let's get into it!

My Absence

I'll be talking about my whereabouts, what's new, new products I've acquired, and what's coming soon to the blog! Starting senior year has been chaotic . From applying to colleges, to applying for FAFSA and scholarships, to trying to go to as many high school football games as I possibly can, I've been a busy woman. Sadly, my blog hasn't been as highly prioritized but I want to change that. I've just been really wanting to focus on my grades, learn some German, and simply enjoy myself, which I've had the opportunity to do.  Thanksgiving is coming soon and I'll be traveling to Arizona to see my family, which means I have a lot of time to come up with blog ideas and blog again. I recently purchased the Huda Beauty Desert Dusk Eyeshadow Palette during the Sephora VIB sale, sadly, it didn't ship out in time to get before going on vacation. However, expect a My Thoughts on the palette soon! I will also be in the works of posting a Holida...
