How Moving To A New City Can Affect Your Skin
Are you moving to a new city or country? While you may want to obsess about paint colors and unpacking, you might not even notice that the move may be affecting your skin. In fact, after you move, you might see rashes, dryness, abnormal sensitivity and increased breakouts or oil.

Gosh… I wish I would have known this could happen when I first moved to LA. I had lived in Nevada my whole life, and always suffered with acne. But when I moved to Los Angeles, my skin reacted the worst I had ever seen it! I got cystic acne all over my cheeks and before I even had time to realize what was happening…the damage was done and now I’m left with terrible acne scars on my face. :-/

I spent the summer trying out every mascara in the drugstore to help find the perfect one for you.

It’s interesting because it’s a guy writing this article on what he finds to be the best mascaras. Good to read tho if you want to know the best drugstore mascaras!! 

I got kind of bored with it halfway down…so I scrolled to the bottom to read the best. I’m definitely going to stick with my ALL TIME FAV ONLY MASCARA I USE L’Oreal Voluminious Original but now after reading this I’m definitely going to give the Volum Express Falsies from Maybelline a try and also the Maybelline Mega Plush 

Surprised by the BEST OVERALL: L’Oréal Shocking Extensions Telescopic because I’ve bought and used that one before and wasnt too impressed.

The first parody of Dove Real Beauty Sketches is here. And what can I say, it’s pretty spot on. We know women give themselves less credit, but what do men do?

Watch.

As I said in a previous post, girls can be much harder on themselves than necessary and many of our biggest insecurities are ones that no one even notices.
I know when I look at people I focus more on what makes them beautiful and I envy that about them…I don’t focus on their flaws.

Dove did this really great commercial that shows a perfect example of women being too hard on themselves and seeing only the bad and never the good. It was really touching to see the difference between how they described themselves and how a stranger did. 
No one is perfect and everyone is beautiful in their own way whether they believe it or not.

How would you describe yourself to someone drawing you?

Speaking of beauty products, I also started using Clinique’s 3-Step Skincare System tonight. It’s only day one so I’ll have to update you with how it goes. But so far my face already feels SUPER soft. I just might end up obsessed…

The first step is the face wash, the second step is the clarifying lotion and the 3rd step is moisturizing gel. Pretty simple. You can read the deets on it here.
I’ll keep you posted!

I started using a new foundation a few weeks ago. It’s Dior – Skin Nude Foundation. It was just a random choice when I found myself in Nordstroms needing foundation and they didn’t carry my usual brand: Make-Up Forever. So I got talked into trying out Dior.

So far I like it a lot. Foundation is my number one priority when it comes to beauty products because of my stupid skin.  It’s a full coverage foundation and I feel it covers up the way I want it to without causing breakouts or fading away fast. I read reviews that the foundation gets clogged and you can’t get it out of the bottle, but so far I have not had this problem. *knock on wood*
Will I buy it again when it runs out? Probably not..I just love my HD Make-Up Forever too much, but this is definitely a good second choice.
