home spa tips

A well deserved and relaxed time doesn’t always have to be in the four corners of an actual Spa. You can create a luxurious Spa moment for yourself in your home. All you need is the right tool and a nook to create that self-care experience at home.

How To Style Muted Outfits.

how to style muted outfits

When you consider neutral colors, muted shades are part of it. Most people who are into neutrals ie whites, tans and black, don’t think that colorful muted shades are neutrals. They lean more to the whites than they would to pastels.

Muted colors are the opposite of bright and vivid colors. They are made of subtle shades like soft lilacs, butter yellow, powder/pale blue. In case you are wondering, any color can be muted by being dulled or greyed. No matter how bright a color is, once you mix it with grey, they become muted.

Generally, streetwear isn’t my style but I can pull looks together that can fit into what I would call a “streetwear” outfit. If you wear lots of jeans, then you can create or build a look around it to pass for streetwear.

A style may not be your type, but you can always work around it to make it yours. You can do this by tweaking your looks, adding what suits your personal style, make some modifications, accessorize to your liking until you create that balance.

I want to look good but not totally at the expense of my pocket and drugstore makeup brands know how to do just that. However, this doesn’t mean I don’t or won’t own luxury makeup, as I currently own a couple sitting on my beauty counter.

Patterned outfits may seem all over the place and slightly confusing to accessorize but the easiest and safest way to go about it, is by adding a pop of color to your look.

A Vitamin C Skincare Routine.

Avon Vitamin C Bundle

We if not all, know that Vitamin C is an essential ingredient for the body, whether you ingest or use it topically, it is a great source for brighter, glowy and healthy skin. However, I will be sharing the benefits of using Vitamin C topically as a skincare routine.

We all thrive to have a smooth, radiant and blemish-free skin. This can be achieved by adding to your already existing skincare routine, a Vitamin C inclusive product, which will help create an even skin tone, prevent sun damage and free radicals that harm your skin daily. Vitamin C is known to be an antioxidant that helps prevent skin/cell damage and when used, adds an extra layer of protection between your bare skin and the environmental elements/pollutants.

The Best Face and Body Highlighter.

Warmer weather calls for more glitter and glow. Whether it’s a body or face highlighter, we need to give our skin that extra glow for the season.

This Blog Post is in Collaboration with Becca Cosmetics and I will be sharing more on their Face and Body Liquified Highlighter I was gifted.

USE CODE: BECCAXOCTOLY25 for a discount

I didn’t get into or use any specific body highlighter until I had my pregnancy shoot back in 2019, where I felt that instant need to use one because I wore an off-shoulder dress for the shoot. I wanted something that would highlight my clavicle, and make the areas where my body was exposed glow. It is a good way of highlighting your body structure while adding that extra glow fit for Spring Summer.

I got the Liquid Face and Body Highlighter in the shade “Strength” which is a radiant bronze pearl that reflects rose gold. This is a perfect shade for you if you like their Shimmering Skin Perfector in “Topaz”, which is an excellent shade for medium to dark skin. I still use the Skin Perfector to date and it’s one of the best or next to best highlighter I have used. Pairing both products together, will definitely give you a magical glow for Spring Summer.

I must state that anything “Rose gold” looks phenomenal on medium to dark Skin. From eyeshadows to highlighters and blush, Rose Gold is a great on that skin tone.

Use Code: BECCAXOCTOLY25 for a discount.

It is weightless, transfer and water resistant (definitely a great pick for beach or pool days if you are needing to maintain a glow while deeping and diving. Nicely fragranced and infused with a blend of Pineapple, fresh coconut and orange flower notes with a moisturizing formula that leaves you with uplifting scent. VIA BECCA COSMETICS.

It is highly pigmented and a little goes a long way. My first swatch, made me gasped!! The texture and consistency areincredible. It is smooth, intense and beautiful. You only need a little because it lasts a long time on.

I applied it to my chest area, shoulders and my cheeks, areas where I know the light will hit regularly, in other to give me the overall glow I intend to have. Great for day/night and definitely a product I highly recommend having and using this Body Highlighter Summer.
