My Winter Skincare Must-Haves

Over the past couple of years, skincare has become one of my top priorities and something I truly enjoy learning more about. After much trial and error, I’ve truly found a skincare routine that works best for me and my skin. I shared my summer skincare routine back in early August and now that the winter months are in full effect, I’ve changed things up a little and added in some products to help keep my skin as clear and hydrated as possible. Since being in Denver, these small changes have done wonders with keeping my skin super hydrated with the dry mountain air.

My Weekly Summer Skincare Routine

Skincare has become such an important factor of my daily life that I look back to even just a few years ago and don’t know how I went without washing my face or caring what products I was putting on it [GASP!]. I’ve done lots of research and tested different brands and products to really, truly find what works best for me and my skin. Our skin is all so unique so finding what works for YOU is key.

Sephora's Beauty Insider Spring Bonus Event

Never did I think I would enjoy and be so passionate about skincare and beauty as I am now. Just a few years ago my skincare regimen - or lack there of - consisted of “washing” my face in the shower. Fast-forward to today where I have a morning and night routine, wear sunscreen daily and am a big believer in clean products. So yes, I fully understand that skincare and beauty products can be a bit pricey but that’s why this time of year is like Christmas…it’s the Sephora Spring Beauty Insider Sale!

My Go-To Products from Sephora

I’m a Sephora girl through and through and have always loved all things beauty. I grew up in the competitive dance world so makeup was normal to me from a very young age…although performance makeup is much different than everyday looks! I don’t look at makeup as a means to cover things up, I look at it as tools to enhance and bring added life. I’ve also become a big proponent of clean beauty products over the past couple of years and love all of the options Sephora has.

5 Ways to Beat Winter Dryness

If you’re like me, winter weather means dry air and dry skin - two things I’m not a fan of. I already have pretty dry skin so the winter air just amplifies it making my skin crack and flake [eww, gross]. Thankfully I’ve found ways to combat that and keep my skin looking soft and silky smooth even in the depths of winter.
