Jean shorts, button down, running shoes

A desert outfit that you can wear everywhere 🌞🌵

#LTKbeauty #LTKshoecrush

Basics, black corset, Miramar jeans, white buttondown,

Closet staples on repeat through the summer…it’s a relaxed but polished look. Love a good corset top, these Miramar jeans get a ton of use (wearing a medium) and I linked to the latest version of these sandals 🌞

#LTKbeauty #LTKunder100 #LTKshoecrush

Monochromatic dressing, black joggers, on clouds, black crop, neutral makeup

When in doubt, keep it monochromatic. Pants are a medium (I’ve had mine for 2+ years…you’ll wonder what you did without them) and top is a small (linked a bunch of v. similar options) and my shoes are the most comfortable and run TTS. ⚡️

Skincare routine, minimalist skincare, face serum, lip balm, toner, body cream

Tonight’s pared down skincare routine…
I toned with this SK-II classic, the followed with a few drops of this serum (on my 4th bottle!), which offers potent anti-aging benefits and always leaves my skin with a glow. For lips, this squalene-rich balm is a hydrating dream and my body loves this lotion. It’s lush and fragrance-free and moisturizes while absorbing instantly, which is a rare treat in the world of body lotion…just ordered two more (it’s only $15!) because my husband and daughter love it just as much ⚡️

#LTKbeauty #LTKunder100 #LTKunder50

Gucci makeup, Gucci lipstick, nude lipstick

Forgot how much I love this shade…it’s a universally flattering nude rosewood shade called Blaze of Noon 👄💄🌞

Lip: Blaze of Noon

#LTKbeauty #LTKunder100 #LTKunder50

#LTKunder100 #LTKsalealert #LTKbeauty

Jeans shorts, running shoes, cropped tank

Pre-summer staples you’ll wear all the time. Top (M) is ribbed and thick enough to skip underpinnings, shorts (size 27) are high waisted and have a great a-line shape and shoes (run TTS) are truly like walking on clouds. 🌞

#LTKshoecrush #LTKunder100 #LTKbeauty

Pink lip color, neutral pink, universally flattering lipstick

A perfect (sheer buildable from sheer, all the way to full) neutral rosy pink that’s universally flattering on all complexions. 💓👄
Shade: millennial

Hair serum, hair growth, detangling, hair treatment

Here’s how I like to use Agent Nateur Holi Locks on wash day…I put it in and let it marinate for as long as possible to reap all the detangling, softening, hair strengthening and growth benefits. Typically I style in a sleek ponytail and I’m good to go for the day…off to wash it now 😂🤍

A silky green corset is a super simple way to elevate an outfit. This particular one (worn in a medium) comes in an array of colors, has a shelf bra (skip a traditional bra!) and has adjustable straps for a perfect fit. I paired it with a loose pair of rousers (worn in a 2) and some dad sandals 🌴

#LTKshoecrush #LTKunder50 #LTKunder100

I have been a SK-II fan since the early days BP nearly a decade ago…every time I use this Pitera-rich routine, my skin feels revitalized and appears brighter and clearer. Here is a look at the SK-II First Experience Kit ($99) which, in addition to the “miracle water” otherwise known as the Pitera Essence, also includes the Facial Treatment Clear Lotion and a Facial Treatment Mask for free. Hope you enjoy the #realskin #nofilter process and let me know what questions you have.👓💋
