Recent Beauty Faves: Micellar Water & Frownies

One of my greatest interests outside of the fashion world is beauty and skincare.  Every month, you can usually find my nose buried in the latest issue of Allure magazine.  I love scouring the pages for the latest and greatest products and dermatological advances. So when Bioderma, a French pharmaceutical company, which specializes in the treatment of sensitive skin and other dermatological conditions, reached out to me about their micellar water, I was so excited.  I’ve heard the recent buzz about the unique benefits of makeup removal from this formula, which actually dates back to 1913.  The formula is comprised…

Aveeno Healthy Beauty Bazaar

Last week, I had the pleasure to attend the AVEENO Healthy Beauty Bazaar event in New York City.  As an AVEENO Ambassador, I was excited to attend my first event with AVEENO.  The event was held at the Lowline Lab, the site of the world’s first future underground park.  This re-purposed venue was transformed from an abandoned 1948 New York City trolley terminal into a vibrant community green space using solar technology.  It was truly magical to see all of the exotic floras and lush greenery — there’s over 3,000!  The Lowline Lab is open free to the public on…

Current Coveting: Beauty Finds

With spring currently in full swing, I figured it was the perfect time to share some of my favorite beauty must haves.  These are products I can’t seem to live without lately.  With a Vegas trip on my agenda, this fedora in cream/black will keep my face protected from the strong UV rays.  I love the internal elasticized band, because it keeps the hat firmly on my head in strong winds.  These sunglasses make any outfit instantly chic.  I’ve been using this eyebrow gel for years, and it’s the cheapest and best solution around.  It keeps my brows perfectly in…

AVEENO Blogger Ambassador 2016

I’m so excited to announce that I was selected to be a 2016 AVEENO Blogger Ambassador!  AVEENO is a brand that I’ve trusted for years.  One of my favorite products is the Eczema Therapy Moisturizing Cream, which has tremendously alleviated the dry patches on my elbows.  It has always been a problem area for me, and this cream is rich in ceramides — natural lipids found in the skin — which lock in moisturize and help prevent the re-occurrence of extra dry skin. As a nurse practitioner, one of my great interests is dermatology.  I am fascinated by skincare.  Taking…

#TryDry with Dove Dry Spray (& A Holiday Giveaway!)

Recently, the Dove team reached out to me to try their new #TryDry antiperspirant line, and I couldn’t have been happier to test out their new products.  I’m a long time Dove fan — I’ve used their solid antiperspirant stick and body washes for years.  It’s a brand I trust for their quality and reputation. I’ve been using the Dove Dry Spray Antiperspirant for a couple weeks now with great results.  It’s packaged in a sleek can. You just unlock, shake well, and spray.  I’m really impressed with how quickly it dries.  I’ve used other spray antiperspirants in the past,…
