As I was scrolling on TikTok I came across this video here where I learned a new overnight heatless curl hack so I, of course, had to try it and share if it works or not!
So I followed the tutorial to the best of my ability, although I have to say that (for me) it wasn't as easy as it looked in the video. Haha! It definitely took me a few tries to get them as tight as possible but even then it wasn't tight enough to last throughout the night (you'll see what I'm talking about if you watch my TikTok below).
I shared the results in my TikTok video below so hit the play button to see the end results of this hair hack!

As you saw, my first time trying the hack I had some trouble and didn't wrap my hair very well so it loosened up a lot while I slept and as a result, my bangs didn't turn out as curled as I'd like. However, I gave it a second shot the following night and did a better job at wrapping my hair in the socks, in doing so my hair actually stayed in place throughout the night, which then lead to fantastic results the following morning!
Overall, I do think this hack works, however, it does take a bit of a learning curve. But once you get it down, it's easy and effective. I definitely recommend giving this hair hack a try!

Am I the only one who thinks that decorating a space is a never-ending process?
In my case, I feel as though no matter how 'done' I think I am when decorating a room in my home, I somehow tend to find things that catch my attention every now and again when I'm out shopping in-store or browsing online.
Well, this happened earlier this month when shopping in-store at my local TJ Maxx I found a lovely plant pot with a stand. The pot pant is a beautiful pale pink color and the wooden stand is a nice mahogany tone. The minute I saw it I knew the perfect spot for it!

I've struggled with acne for nearly a decade and can understand firsthand how frustrating it can be to cover it up, not to mention the insecurity there can be around it. And something that has always helped me feel better about my acne and acne scars has been makeup!
Over the years I've tried several techniques and have finally found a base routine that works, covers, and wears all day long. So in this blog post, I'm sharing my personal base makeup routine to cover acne and hyperpigmentation, and I've included a video tutorial, step-by-step instructions, and the makeup products I used.

SHOP PRODUCTS
PRODUCTS USED
1. Apply a peachy-toned color corrector over any acne/hyperpigmentation to cancel discoloration and blend using tapping motions.
2. Stipple your foundation of choice onto the skin with a dense brush, like this elf Buffing Foundation Brush, over areas where the color corrector was applied to keep the color of the corrector and coverage in place. Once the foundation has been applied all over, take a damp beauty sponge and gently bounce it on the skin to help blend away any brush strokes the brush might have left behind and to pick up any excess foundation.
3. When applying cream/liquid concealer, bronzer, blush, or highlight, use the same stippling technique then follow with a damp sponge to further blend.
4. Once all liquid/cream products have been applied to the skin take a setting spray and set the face. My favorite is the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray because it's been proven to work in my 12HR wear test.
5. After the setting spray has fully dried, set the skin once more with a translucent setting powder. Lightly press the setting powder into the skin using a dry sponge. This will further lock in the makeup and mattify the skin a bit as well.
6. When applying powder bronzer and blush use stippling motions for maximum coverage or use sweeping motions with very light pressure.
7. Set powder products in place once more with a setting spray. This step will help with any powderiness from using powder products and will leave the skin with a natural finish.
8. This step is optional because I know not everyone likes to apply a highlighter because it can emphasize texture. But if you choose to apply your choice of highlight onto the skin. My recommendation for application is to gently pat the product onto the skin using your finger if using a cream/liquid formula. And if using a powder formula sweep the product into place with a brush making sure to use light pressure.
I hope this helps!
