Get Ready With Me: Casual Summer Afternoon | Collab with Mika Chan Sailor

It's been a while since my last Get Ready With Me video but they're back! This video is in collaboration with my very creative friend across the Atlantic, Mika Chan Sailor. She is an incredible DIY enthusiast, fellow Lord of the Rings fan, and one of my best YouTube friends. I'm always blown away by her creativity, so when she asked me if I wanted to collaborate I said YES! In this video you'll get to see how I did my makeup, hair, nails, and I'll also show you my very casual outfit. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did putting it together.

10 Ways to Use Argan Oil

I feel like I need to start this post by saying: I LOVE argan oil! I legit feel like Goldmember whenever I see or use argan oil, my obsession is that bad. Argan oil is produced from the kernels of the argan tree in Morocco. In Morocco the oil is mainly used to drizzle on couscous or as a dip, but here in the United States it is predominantly seen in skincare. If you enjoy pure vitamin E oil, then you're going to fall in love with argan oil. Argan oil is often referred as "liquid gold" (hence why I feel like Goldmember) because it's rich in vitamin E, fatty acids, and proteins. Apart from having amazing components and skin benefits, this oil is incredibly multipurpose. In this video I'm going to share 10 ways I use argan oil and I'm going to be using my favorite argan oils from ACURE Organics.

Gift from Ulta

A few months ago I was fortunate enough to work with Ulta on two makeup tutorials. I drove to one of the newest stores in San Diego, met with a manager, and then got my makeup done. The whole experience was a gift in itself and then I got a little box from Ulta in the mail.  If you've seen my unboxing videos, then you know very well how excited I get over new makeup. All but one product was brand new to me, and many of the things I had actually never heard about. You've seen a few of these products pop here and there on Instagram, but here's an overview about what I got and whether I like them or not so much.

Generation Beauty Haul + Review

On Saturday I was able to attend Ipsy's Generation Beauty event thanks to Pacifica. I got asked if I wanted to attend and of course I said YES! I was so excited to drive up to Los Angeles and see what the event was all about. There were so many brand booths and products to check out, it was like a makeup lover's paradise. In this video I will be sharing a mini vlog about the event, so you can see what it was like. I will also show you all the products that I bought and received at the event, trust me there was a bunch of makeup being handed out. And finally I will also share my opinion about the event, just in case any of you are interested in attending next year's event. Warning: This is a long video so grab yourself a drink and snack!

Review + Giveaway | Pacifica Alight Multi-Mineral BB Cream and Purify Coconut Cleansing Wipes

If you watched my May favorites, then you know how I've been adding a lot more natural and cruelty-free products into my makeup and skin routine. A brand that makes shopping for natural products incredibly easy and affordable is my beloved Pacifica. I was first introduced to Pacifica in my very first Ipsy bag that I received around 7 months ago and I've been hooked to the brand ever since. I've tried everything from body washes, nail polishes, concealers, and even fragrances. Fast forward to May of 2015 and Pacifica was the one who invited me to attend Ipsy's Generation Beauty event, it's funny how things work out sometimes. In this blog post I'm going to share my thoughts on two very summer-friendly products by Pacifica and one of you will get the opportunity to win them both!
