How You Can Achieve My Favorite Hairstyles

“Invest in your hair. It is the crown you never take off.”

Does anyone else feel better when they are having a good hair day? I always love the way I feel when I come out of the hair salon with a fresh haircut or color. When my hair’s on point for the day, I feel better about myself. I also love how a small change in your hairstyle or color can change your entire attitude or look. It’s an easy thing to do and can make you feel refreshed and confident.

Peace, Love and Organizing in the New Year

I can’t believe the new year is already upon us! Like most others, I try to come up with a few resolutions that I like to focus on throughout the year. This year I made myself write my resolutions and goals down in a journal and rate them by importance. One goal I really want to follow through on is to be more organized around the house. There is one specific area in my home that I always seem to need to declutter and organize- my bathroom and vanity! Being a girl who is always on the hunt to try the latest and greatest in the makeup and hair world is a lot of fun. But, it also seems like I am always adding so many products to an already overstocked space! I have been searching for some new ways to keep my glam area clean, easily accessible and organized. I have listed some of my favorite new finds below and included some things I have used in the past and have loved. I’ve also found some awesome ideas on Pinterest on how to organize makeup products and styling tools. Between Pinterest and Amazon, I am optimistic this goal will be easy to reach!

 

 

DreamGenius Makeup Organizer

This makeup organizer is a new release on Amazon and I am already crushing on it! It can hold up to 12 lipsticks and has 9 different sized drawers. You can also purchase other drawers that are stackable and interlocking, and the clear color is sure to match any bathroom. This is a very reasonable price for all the storage you are getting, and it comes with free shipping!

Sodynee Cosmetic Storage Organizer

If you don’t have enough counter space for something as large as the DreamGenius makeup organizer, here is another similar product that is smaller and gets amazing reviews. This organizer also has removable black mesh padding that can be perfect for storing jewelry as well.

Makeup Brush Holder

I’m in love with this makeup brush holder. Not only is it super pretty and girly looking, but it’s very functional as well. It lets you separate your brushes into 3 sections and has a lid to keep them clean and dust free! The beads and pearls are a bonus that give it an added feminine touch.

Hair Styling Storage Unit

This hair styling storage unit is great for keeping all your hair tools organized. It has oversized openings that will fit almost all products, and a heat resistant base that lets your hair tools cool down quickly and safely. It can also be used on the counter, under the cabinet or hung from a towel bar.

3 Piece Canister

If you have extra space on your bathroom counter or makeup vanity, I love using canisters. Not only do I think they look pretty, but they are also functional. I use my canisters for qtips and cotton balls. I love how these are also shown being used for lipstick and chapstick! This set comes with three different sizes and includes lids to keep everything clean. All three canisters are under $13 with free shipping!

Bathroom Drawer Organizer

If you have limited space on your counter tops for organizing, try finding a bathroom drawer organizer instead. They make it easier to find your products quickly. If you have deep drawers, you can usually stack the organizers on top of one another to gain more space. Plus, most of them are easy to wipe out and keep clean.

The Best Stocking Stuffers On Amazon

Christmas is officially less than a month away! Who else can’t believe it? I have been trying to buy toys and presents for my family as I see things when we are out, especially if they are on a good sale. I feel like my children are usually easy to buy for- they basically want every toy that they see on tv! However, sometimes I struggle on getting creative with the rest of my family, especially with stocking stuffers! I promised myself I wouldn’t procrastinate this year on trying to find some cool and unique gifts for their stockings. Anyone who has been following me knows my love for Amazon. So, of course I have resorted to them to help me find the best and most affordable gifts this year. Check out some of my favorite things that I have gotten so far for the adult guys, gals and tweens in my life. I’d recommend ordering sooner than later so you will have plenty of time to have everything shipped to you. Amazon makes my life so much easier this way- no lines or traffic to deal with! Happy shopping!

 

For the Tweens:

Nail Polish Set of 12

My nieces are starting to get into all the girly goodies, so they love to do their nails. I love all the bright and fun colors this kit has to offer. You can’t beat the price either for 12 different nail polishes!

Sneaker Ball Deodorizers

I know a lot of kids are into so many different activities and have their own sports bags to keep all their gear in. I also know those bags can get smelly after lots of use. I love throwing in one of these cute deodorizer balls to help with that sweaty smell!

Colorful and Fun Socks

Who doesn’t love fun and colorful socks? These are so vibrant and fun for any age and the price is amazing! They also get awesome reviews.

Skeleton Gloves

These skeleton gloves are awesome for the young men in your life. They are fun, casual and will help keep them warm during those cold winter months.

 

For the Gals:

Fashion Reading Glasses

My mom and mother in law are always looking around the house for their readers. I got them each a pack of these last year and they absolutely love them. They can leave a pair on each floor of their house, in their car and in their purse. Plus, they are adorable, a great price and get amazing reviews!

Wallet Purse For Your Phone

I love these small cell phone wallets. You can carry them as a clutch, wallet or crossbody. Plus, they come in a ton of different colors and have slots for your license and credit cards. This is perfect when you want to run a few errands without being weighed down by a big handbag.

Chapstick Holder

These Chapstick key chain holders are so adorable. I am constantly digging for my Chapstick in my purse, but these make it so quick and easy to find. They come as a pair, so you can share one with a friend or give as two separate gifts!

Bath Bombs

I am obsessed with bath bombs. You can get them for any lady or girl who likes to take relaxing bubble baths. These are a best seller on amazon. The price is great, and the packaging is so pretty and feminine.

 

For the Guys:

Leather Wallet

My husband always likes to have a fresh-looking wallet. It can get overwhelming trying to find the perfect one because there are so many to choose from. I found this one last year and he loved it! There are several different colors to choose from and it gets amazing reviews!

Cigar Cutter

If you have a guy in your life who likes to enjoy an occasional cigar, this is a great cigar cutter. It’s stainless steel, has amazing reviews and is under $10 with free shipping!

Tabasco Sauce Keychain

Do you know a guy who likes everything they eat to be hot and spicy? This tabasco sauce comes in a small bottle on a keychain! It’s prefect for your man to always have access to making his food delicious!

Heat Resistant Gloves

These gloves can come in handy for so many things. They are heat and fire resistant so are perfect for grilling, bonfires and fire building. They are under $17 and have free shipping!
