My June Beauty Discovery

I don't do many beauty posts, but when I come across a product that I quickly fall in love with, it's hard to keep it to myself. Today I want to tell you guys about this amazing new product that Garnier just came out with and it's their new Skin Renew BB Cream. I've never tried a BB cream before, because I never really understood what it was. I wasn't going to spend big bucks to get one of the high end brand's BB cream, so when I saw this in Walmart for around $11, I grabbed it. 


I was super excited to try it out and let me tell you, I love it. It doubles as a moisturizer and a light weight foundation which I absolutely love for the summertime. Personally, I hate the feeling of foundation on my face during the hot summer days. The light weight foundation in this cream doesn't at all make me feel like I have a layer of gunk on my face. Add a little concealer on top of my break outs and I'm good to go for the day. 


My favorite part about this BB cream is the 15 spf protection. I've become a sunscreen junkie this summer, it's something I have to put on every day with my morning routine. So instead of skipping the sunscreen on your face because you know it will clog your pores, this BB cream has it built right in! 


If any of you are like me and have always wanted to try a BB cream instead of a foundation and don't want to spend the big bucks on a high end brand, check this out. I think I'll definitely be adding this to my permanent summer face routine.  

Have a fabulous Monday!

Friday's Letters

"Mom, I wanna be in your  blog!"

Dear all of you, thank you so much to everyone who wished me a happy birthday. I'm finally in my twenties and I gotta say, I feel quite older. No more "teen" tacked onto my age. So thank you to you guys, you were all super sweet! Dear weather man, get your shit straight and let me know what the weather is actually going  to be like. Saying it's going to be 90 then having rain and wind instead just isn't cutting it for me. Dear new popcorn popper, you do wonders. Nuff' said. Dear body, why do you continue to kill me in my back area. I'm twenty, not 100. I understand I have horrible posture and I'm a little busty, but that's not my fault. Well the posture is, but still. Dear the next two weeks, you may fly by as fast as you like because I cannot wait to go camping. Campfires, s'mores, and beaches, the three best things anybody could have. 

Happy Friday everyone, 

have a wonderful weekend! 

Recipe // 4th of July S'mores

Ingredients Needed:

Marshmallows
Chocolate

To make the crackers:
2-2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
2 sticks butter, softened
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 Tbl honey

1. In a bowl, combine flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon, set aside. In another bowl, beat together butter, brown sugar, and honey. Add the flour mix and combine until smooth.

2. Cover a clean surface in flour an roll out your dough. Make it about 1/8-inch thick. Helpful hint: roll it onto a cookie sheet instead of eyeballing it. Throw in the fridge for about 10 minutes or until firm. Take the time to preheat you oven to 350 degrees. Take out the dough and cut into however big squares you like. Use a small star cookie cutter on half the squares to cut out the star for the middle. Use your scrapes to reroll and make more.

3. Place the squares on your cookie sheet and refrigerate another 15 minutes. When ready toss them in the oven for about 15 minutes or dark brown, flip halfway through. Let cool.

4. Get them ready for your 4th of July festivities and chow down on some fabulous s'mores!
