Get the legs you've always wanted, we'll tell you how!

You know it when you see them- those celebs with AMAZING legs that seem impossible for anyone else to even come close to having. Like how Carrie Underwood can flaunt them on stage during summer concerts or Beyonce who had everyone in awe of at this year's Superbowl. 

So what's the secret? Besides their advantages of having fabulous personal trainers and time devoted to awesome workouts, there is a way you, too can make your legs look amazing with just one simple product,  Shea Body Butter. 

This intense hydration will leave every inch of your skin silky and smooth. Not only does this lotion moisturize and nourish, but also naturally protects the skin with its vitamins and antioxidants. Apply  directly after getting out of the shower, and while your legs may not have that instant muscular tone like Carrie or Beyonce, your legs will look radiant and feel celebrity-smooth. 

So, you're stranded on a deserted island... (this is totally plausible, people!)

Have you looked outside lately? With snow melting and the rain that won't stop falling, I get the idea that being stranded, surrounded by water might not be completely unrealistic!

Okay, so maybe I'm being a little dramatic, but stick with me here. So, you're stranded on a deserted island, what is the ONE thing your skin (or lips) could not live without? Can you guess mine?!

Don't Believe in Multi-tasking Products? Think Again.

It's that time of year, when my skin just cracks. Whether it's my elbows, my hands, or my legs, no amount of lotion can keep up with how dry my skin is right now. In my desperation, I tried Enza's NutriGel. After getting out of the shower, I put it on the driest parts of my body- my hands and elbows and it has truly worked wonders!


My skin feels much more refreshed and much less irritated. And get this, the Nutri-Gel is packed with aloe vera. So about that sunburn prone skin (it's the Irish in me, ugh)... Sunburn and sun damage won't stand a chance come summertime!

Sounds like my skin's new best friend.

This New Look will do Wonders for Your Skin

Not to be cliche, but I can't help it with this one-- when it comes to Christina Aguilera's new look, less is so much more. With minimal makeup (left), she shows off her more refined and natural side of her. I don't know about you, but I think she looks fabulous!

And lets not forget, her skin must be letting out one big sigh of relief-- literally! Excess makeup often ends up suffocating the skin over time, which can lead to major breakouts, unwanted blemishes and early signs of aging. But luckily for Christina, her skin still looks as stunning and flawless as ever. What do you all think? How well does Christina pull off her new look?

Throwing out Winter's Leftovers

I know I can't be the only one who is tired of waiting for the snow to stop falling, the temperatures to raise and for my skin finally cheer up! It's March already! I've had just about enough of the freezing weather, the snow and the cold winds that make me and my skin quite irritated.

With Spring on its way (at least we hope so!) it's getting to be that time. Time to slough off the winter damage, time to start my spring skincare routine, and time to put an end to irritating, dry skin that not even my moisturizer can handle much more of. This  can only mean one thing--it's time for a Microdermabrasion! The flaky skin I see after I get out of the shower is all the evidence I need to be sure. It is time I do my part in getting rid of the leftovers winter has left with me and prepare myself (and my skin) for springtime!

A Post All About Shoes?

Did someone say shoes? I will admit, I am 100%, totally, completely, without a doubt obsessed with shoes! After doing a bit of shopping, I think I've narrowed down to just a few of my obsessions for this spring. 

But here's the deal--I have my cousin's wedding coming up this Spring and need a cute, unique, and neutral shoe to go with my black dress.  Which one do I choose? Help!

Destination: ???

Now that we're in the heart of March (crazy, isn't it?) all I ever hear about is where everyone is going for their Spring Break trips-Orlando, California, Cayman Islands, Hawaii - well, you get the idea. Of course, I never have much to say on these topics. Instead of laying on the beaches, I'll be laying on my couch at home. Or instead of soaking up the sun, my feet will be soaking from the 14 inches of melting snow everywhere. Needless to say, my Spring break is hardly as exciting as those traveling. But with break on the way there's plenty to be excited for, even if your stuck at home (re-runs, anyone?). What are your Spring Break plans?

It's about that Time

You wouldn't wear the same huge puffy jacket that you wear in the winter during the spring, would you? So, why would you wear the same moisturizer? OR skincare products? As the seasons change, so must your skincare-- and the clothes in your closet. So even though this winter, I talked about how I fell in love with the Sustaining Glow Creme, I just might need to switch as we move into spring. 

My new personal favorite moisturizer for this "in between" time is the Vitamin C Serum! I don't quite need the full force of the Sustaining Glow Creme twice a day, so in the morning, I use the Vitamin C Serum and at night, the Glow Creme. Be sure to assess your Spring skin and you might realize that it's about time to get some new products!

And Now You Can

Anyone up for a shopping date? I am SO excited to finally see these cute spring styles on the street instead of them hiding behind parkas and jackets. Now after seeing them I want them- all of them! I am absolutely obsessed with these. My favorite is the rose colored skinnys with the black striped top. What about you out there, which style do you love?

Say HELLO!

Finally! Spring is in sight! As much as I cannot believe it's actually March already, I can't say I'm complaining. I know my car and I aren't the only ones who think the whole snow and cold part of winter is getting pretty old. Although for those of us lucky enough to be living in the Midwest may not be done with the annoyances of winter quite yet, here is why March is still my favorite month:

• I can start to see spring fashions on sale at the mall- I love going shopping and thinking "that would be perfect for a beach day!"
• I can walk  to class without 5 layers on all parts of my body
• It's my birthday month-So maybe I'm a little biased
• My lotion/ moisturizer budget goes down
• St. Patrick's day- For all you Irish out there!
• Daylight savings- SO much easier to get out of bed when the sun's up with me!

Don't deny it, you're pretty excited about March too! Share with us, what you are excited about this month!
