Homemade Beauty... Shaving Cream

How about a quick tip for today?

Use baby oil, conditioner, or coconut oil instead of shaving cream.

Basically, all that shaving cream is is foaming soap... It doesn't really have that many benefits for your skin and is just another thing that we have to buy. The whole point of shaving cream is to slick up your skin so you don't get cut by your razor. The three things above do the same thing, but they also moisturize your skin at the same time! I use Baby Oil when we travel because, lets face it, even the travel size shaving creams are huge! And a travel size baby oil is actually pretty small, and you don't need much when you use it. Win Win :)

My Petal Club

A new box! And a PERIOD subscription box at that! I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable! This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50! And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras. This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need. Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did. It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice! So I suggest going straight through their website....

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...

Let's Talk...

I feel so bad, I have been such a flake with posting recently and the past month is when I should have been really focused on getting out content, because.... My summer classes started this week. And they are intense. Like, more so than I expected and I'm only a week in. Also, I just got my Summer schedule for the daycare I work at, and instead of my normal 9:30-5:30, I was switched to 6:00-12:30 ... That is a huge difference, I've never gotten up that early in my life! It is a lot better in some ways because I now have my full days free, but it's a difficult sleep schedule to get used to. As a result, I've been spending my mornings at work, and my evenings doing homework, or attempting to have a social life... This is my last Summer before college after all, so I want to have fun! But it just makes things more difficult when I need to be in bed early for work, balance homework, and then there is this blog. I love having this...
