Fix a Self Tanning Mistake!

So you decided to try Self-Tanning for the first time, or maybe you are an old pro! You apply/spray it on, wait for the color to develop, take a look in the mirror and discover.... Oooooh no! You are covered in orange streaks!

Well don't worry about it :) I have a little DIY Self Tanning Mistake Fixer that will fade it away and leave you feeling refreshed!

Ingredients:

1 lemon

¼ cup sugar

¼ cup sea salt

¼ cup baking soda

Instructions:

1.) Mix sugar, sea salt, and baking soda in a small bowl

2.) Cut the lemon in half

3.) Dip the exposed side of the lemon into the mixture

Now, gently rub the lemon slice along any streaky and blotchy areas of your body. Another method is to squeeze the lemon juice directly into the mixture and apply the paste to streaky areas with your hands, a loofah, or a washcloth.The lemon is going to lighten your self-tanner streaks and the sugar, sea salt, and baking soda will exfoliate.

Try to do this as soon as possible after the mistake, because the sooner you realize it, the sooner you can fix it!

Graze: Saptember

I started a new subscription box! You may remember me reviewing this box once before, early last year, and I liked it then but wasn't willing to pay that much for it. I recently found a $20 voucher on Groupon for a four month subscription with 8 snacks each. I did the math, and I thought it was a pretty good deal, so why not give it another shot! This is technically the September box, so I'm a bit behind, but I felt it was worth sharing anyway! This Peachy Orchard is full of dried fruit like rhubarb and pear, with "peach drops." It seems like an interesting combination! These Sesame Garlic Crunch crackers were pretty good! I liked the crunch, and they were a kind of spicy/salty I think this concept of sending cookies and tea together is so cool! This was Lemon Almond cookies and Black Tea. This Salted Fudge and Peanut cookie snack was just ok. I liked the fudge, cookies, and salted peanuts, but the redskin ...

Girls Night In!

Time to unwind with a girls night! If you are like me and my adorable roomie, you just completed a week of mind numbing midterms and you need to unwind. Priority number one is getting into the comfiest possible clothes that you own, bonus points if you have super cute matching pjs unlike me... My top pick is my boyfriends flannel (which is huge on me! <3) and leggings with fuzzy socks. If you want to go the comfy but cute route, Adore Me has sleepwear ranging from sexy slips and camis if you are having a night in with your significant other, cute sweats for a girls night like we are having, and robes if you just need something to cuddle up in and be extra cozy! I highl y reccomend them! And, just like with their bra and panty sets, your first set is only $25! Step two is to slap on a face mask! In the picture above I am wearing the Glam Glow SuperMud, which is not pictured because I only have a small Sephora sample, but it work...

Homemade Beauty: Ice Facial

It may not sound very pleasant, but running an ice cube over your face has a ton of benefits for your skin! They will help to smooth your complexion by combating fat cells, easing wrinkles, fighting acne, and promoting blood circulation that will help heal past blemishes! Be sure to wrap the cubes in a paper towel, or a baggie because applying them directly to your skin can cause delicate blood vessels to break For an added benefits to this treatment, try freezing your cubes with watermelon, lemon, or rose!
