Powder Brows
In the past, my brows had no shape and I consistently struggled properly shading and shaping my brows. About 3 months ago, I went to see Emily at Inked Beauty Bar for Powder Brows. What are Powder Brows? Powder Brows, also known as Ombre Brows, is a semi-permanent eyebrow styling technique that creates a soft, shaded look while adding natural looking definition and depth to the eyebrows. It is essentially an eyebrow “tattoo”, and I was pleasantly surprised by how easy and painless of a process it was for myself! The Process Consult & Mapping: Emily immediately made me feel comfortable and patiently worked with me to determine what my…
IPL Photofacial
A couple weeks ago, I visited Emily at Nayak Plastic Surgery for an IPL Photofacial treatment. I have had freckles and sun damage covering my face for several years now that I typically cover with high coverage makeup. IPL has become something that has peaked my interest in recent years, and I was interested to see if IPL could help reverse some of the many years worth of sun damage and help me to obtain even skin tone and healthier, glowing skin. Benefits of IPL: tightens pores, reduces the severity of acne, reduce the appearance of or eliminate sun spots/freckles, lessen hyperpigmentation, treat skin flushing and redness, reduce the appearance…
Dreaming of a Gold Christmas
Tree – I have always wanted a flocked tree and this one was a relatively affordable option, only took a couple days to arrive, and I was able to put it together myself in about 15 minutes tops! It is pre- lit which has been so convenient, and there are a few options for height. I went with the 7.5 height for our 9 foot ceilings. I plan on getting THIS tree topper. Tree skirt was from Home Goods but this ONE is similar. Gold and Red Ribbon – I have reused this ribbon for a few years now and can attest to it’s quality and that it lasts! I…

Lip Blushing
In the past, I have consistently worn lipstick of all colors! From bold to natural and everything in between. I have known plenty of close friends and family to get permanent eyeliner and eyebrows, but have never taken the dive into permanent makeup myself. I have never even had a tattoo. Until now. The more I looked into it, the more I realized that it was actually right up my alley! I visited Krista (@theglamskinrn) for the first time in September, and she immediately made me feel so welcome and comfortable. She is incredibly kind and knowledgeable. Lip blushing was fairly new to me and she was sure to fully…

Travel Kali (@kalialexandria) and I flew out of St Louis at 5:30am with a layover in Denver- to Calgary. We met Vy (@pixelated_me), Abigail (@lifeinfocusblog), and Amber (@ambermiller9) at the airport in Calgary. From there we rented a car to drive the hour to Basecamp Resorts in Canmore! I would recommend renting a care when visiting as many of the places you will want to visit are about an hour apart. The drives are beyond scenic, and we loved having the ability to drive through the mountains and explore as needed. Having our own car also came in handy as we took full advantage of the gift shops and were…
