JANUARY!! This is actually my least favorite month of the year, but we’re making it work by staying comfy and reading lots of books. Here is my monthly update on things I’m loving/wanting (if you’re wondering why you haven’t seen one before it’s because this is the first post in it’s series!) ALSO the New Year!! I promise one of my resolutions is to post more regularly & to post more lifestyle stuff as well.

The True Moisturizing Bomb from belief – I was nervous to try this heavier cream moisturized because I typically use a gel with my sensitive skin, but this moisturizer makes my skin SO SOFT. Like baby butt soft. I cannot get enough of it and it didn’t make me break out.

Nike Jogger Pants – I’m a sucker for a good pair of joggers. And this color.

St. Tropez Self Tan Express Advanced Bronzing Mousse – I’ve posted about the Classic Bronzing Mousse, but I finally tried the express and I’ve been missing out for sure. This tan lasted over a week for me (gradually fading during that time) and for me to have only applied it once to get those results is amazing. Please learn from my mistake and DO NOT sleep in it. Let it process for the recommended time.

lululemon Define Jacket – My mom bought me this jacket for Christmas and it’s a struggle not to wear it everyday.

I can’t stop checking these Kancan overalls. But I hate overalls so I’m very skeptical about how they’re going to look on me.

It’s a 10 Miracle Leave-in Product – One of the things I pride myself in is having super soft hair, but my hair gets dry and looks really frizzy during the winter. This is one of the products I’ve been using to help tame and keep my sleek looking hair. It’s a leave in product I spray after the shower to help detangle, control frizz, and keep it looking silky and smooth.

WM Nutrition Pre Workout – This Pre Workout comes in little packets and YOU DON’T NEED WATER! They’re just like Pixy Sticks, but the flavors are even yummier! I got the variety pack and love all 3 flavors that come inside. I don’t get jittery AT ALL and have tons of energy.

Workout Tank I just got this tank and it actually makes me want to go to the gym. It’s fitted so perfectly. Truly I think it makes me look 10x better than I actually look and I have no clue how.

Been wearing the same black booties for 3 months straight. Here are very similar ones!

S’well Water Bottle to keep up with my resolution to stay hydrated.

Cutest wire basket to organize blankets.

I have wanted these shoes since the day they released them, adidas NMD R1 Primeknit.

Summer is fast approaching and if you haven’t had time to get out in the sun before that first pool party you may be thinking about a sunless tanner. Look no further I’ve found the best of the best. St. Tropez’s Self Tanning Mousse is a guaranteed MUAH. It has helped me in my times of need on more than one occasion. The coloring is perfect and doesn’t make you look orange at all. It’s such a natural looking tan nobody will even be able to tell it’s fake. I purchased the application mitt and it gives me a flawless finish every time. They even make a face mitt (and no this will not make you breakout, I tested it!) There’s no streaking or splotches and best of all no orange hands! I start out by exfoliating and making sure my skin is nice and moisturized. Once you’re completely dried off pump your Tanning Mousse which is really more of a foam onto your mitt and start with a bigger area (not your hands or feet!) and work your way out to your hands and feet. If you start with them they always end up looking to dark for me. Be sure to rub it in circles to prevent any streaks. After applying one coat I dry it with a blow dryer and then apply another layer and repeat. I usually wait a bit before getting dressed because my skin feels tacky almost. This tanner can transfer onto your clothes so be sure to wear darker clothing. It does wash out if you get it on something, but I like to be extra careful. All that’s left is to wait for your color to develop! Don’t worry if you feel like you’re too dark, after rinsing it will lighten up! This self tanner does have a smell, but it isn’t the typical self tanner smell that I hate! I try to apply it 2 times before my event to get a good coloring! If you’re nervous about the price try it out in this beginners kit or get the best bang for your buck with this spring kit that comes with 2 bottles of tanner ($32 a piece) and 2 application mitts ($10 a piece) all for only $40!
