I remember six years ago today not even knowing Nick. I went to my parents house to spend the evening after my classes, because I didn’t want the awkward pressure of not having “plans” on Valentine’s Day. I was nervous about finding the right person for me, and when, and even if it would happen. But I knew I wanted love, and a sweet, good, pure kind of love. Then a few months later Nick came into my life and changed everything. It’s funny how life can change so much, so fast.

Now here we are six years later. I feel like Walt Whitman sums up my feelings best when he said, “we were together, I forget the rest.”

Whether your single, dating, married, I hope you enjoy your day. And that you know how loved and special you are. Happy Valentine’s Day.

A couple of months ago, I was talking to a friend of a family member, who’s a Master Esthetician. I’m always so curious about skincare and peoples routines, and tips, so I asked her what the most important thing is to be doing for our skin. She told me these two things:

1. SPF 50 everyday-I’ve started apply this sunscreen on my face after moisturizer and right before foundation (if I’m using foundation that day). Its very affordable (which I love), and light so I don’t feel like it affects the way my makeup looks.
2. Using a Clarisonic brush to cleanse the face-As of the last month or so I’ve been using it a couple times a week and have loved it. I always feel extra cleansed and fresh after. *If a Clarisonic brush isn’t an option right now, I think even cleansing your face morning and night with a facial cleanser would be a huge step towards better skin. The Clarisonic just allows for a little bit more of a deep clean.*

I’ve started incorporating both of these into my skincare routine (if you can even call it that? haha. I just started washing my face every night a couple of months ago, so I’m definitely no expert). But already, I’ve noticed awesome awesome results.

Do you have any skincare secrets? What are they?
