Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall ♡

Happy October! 👻🎃🍁🍂🍃☕ I can’t believe I’m already saying that! It seems like we were just celebrating Independence Day. It’s like we blink and the year is almost over! I really love summer time, but Fall just has this cozy feel to it that makes me love it so much. Although we don’t get a Fall in Florida, we can still enjoy many aspects of the season! IMG_20151001_101027One of my absolute favorite things about Fall is pumpkin flavored everything. The coffee, the muffins, pie… i just love it all! A lot of people hate it (they don’t know what they’re missing). The fact that you can have the taste of pumpkin pie in your coffee is uhhmazingggg! I love to bake, especially during Fall and the holidays. I see a batch of pumpkin chocolate chip cookies in my  near future!

I am obsessed with Fall scented candles! There are so many yummy flavors and we always have at least 2 different scents burning!

We may not have the opportunity to enjoy the boots, scarves, and hoodies until about December, but I love pumpkin carving with family and Halloween! After carving, we always bake a huge batch of the seeds with salt! Mmm mmm! Snuggling up and watching Halloween movies is an absolute must!  And for all you football fans, football season!

2015-10-01 11.07.52Aside from all of the Fall-ish type events, October is also Breast Cancer Awareness month! Encourage your loved ones to get checked! Most people dont show signs or symptoms and often don’t have any family history of it.

My littlest sister will be turning 17 in 20 days!! I can’t even comprehend how that is happening already! And on the 23rd, Mike and I will be engaged for 1 year! I know, I can’t believe it either. ♡ Speaking of being engaged, I found my dream ring that we were searching for before we settled on diamond rings. So yes, I have a new ring, but I will blog all about that in another post! ♡

October is an eventful, exciting month! Are you all excited for Fall?! 🍁🍂🍃

Macadamia Oil Deep Repair Masque | Review

Glamfitfoodie.com

If you’re anything like me, your hair is probably damaged from hair dye or maybe you use a lot of heat on your hair. I love trying out new products to see how well they work. I always see this Macadamia Oil at Target and online  and have always been interested in it so I decided to give it a try.The product itself is supposed to help provide deep nourishment and rebuild stressed, damaged hair while leaving your hair silky.

Heres what i thought of the Macadamia Oil Deep Repair Masque:

The packaging is beautiful and definitely drew my attention! Does anyone else else ever want a product because the packaging is just so darn cute?! The consistency is thick, but it is recommended to apply it to damp hair which sort of helps it melt into your hair. The smell is nice, but I found it to be a strong scent. My hair is pretty thick, but a little more than a dime size amount was enough.

After I left it on for 10 minutes and rinsed it out, my comb went through my hair like butter! It also says you can leave on overnight. I did and the results are even better! After styling my hair, it was so shiny and soft! I actually got a lot of compliments on my hair the day after!

If you havent tried this product yet, you need to! This is now my holy grail hair masque and I will definitely be repurchasing more! 😊

Do any of you have a hair masque that you recommend?! Leave comments below and I’ll try them!

Summer Glow Series | Moisturize & Protect Your Skin

IMG_20150707_104228

Hello Beauties!

I’m back with another tip in my summer glow series! During the hot summer months, the sun is especially strong and you need to protect your skin. Sometimes it may be hard to remember to apply SPF and moisture to your skin, but if you make it part of your every day routine you’ll do it out of habit. I promise! Starting these habits in your 20’s is beneficial, but it is never too late to start. Keeping your skin protected from the sun and moisturized will definitely give you a healthy glow, now and in the future.

Sunscreen SPF 30 or higher

Beach days are among us and we all want that summer tan. You can still get a golden glow while using SPF 30. Your skin will have a protective barrier from the harsh rays of the sun while getting your bronze on. I used to be an avid tanner when I was younger; tanning beds and all. It isn’t healthy for your skin or you. Even when you think the sun isn’t that strong, it is! Use sunscreen and protect your skin.

Coconut Oil

Let me just start by saying coconut oil is Ahhhmazzinggg! It has so many beauty benefits. It is perfect for moisturizing your skin, especially your face before bed. If you happen to get burned in the sun, this can be used to alleviate the pain. Earlier in the glow series, I told you all how to use coconut oil to make the perfect Lip Scrub. Make some now and save it for later!

This has nothing to do with skin, but I love putting coconut oil in my hair and wrapping it up in a bun with a bandana and sleeping with it in over night. I highly recommend adding coconut oil to your beauty cabinet!

Lotion-ize

After a nice hot shower, your pores are open. It is the perfect time to apply your lotion or moisturizer. Our skin can get ashy and dry if moisture is not applied to them. Lotion keeps your skin young and firm!

H2O

Drinking plenty of water is very beneficial not only to your skin, but your overall health. I am always drinking tons of water throughout the day. It is good to stay hydrated. If you don’t think you can drink plain water throughout the day, try adding fruit. Some of the fruit infused waters I love to make can be found here.

Protecting your skin can be easily achieved. Protect and moisturize every day! Your future self will thank you! 🙂
