My Favorite Summer Products

Hello Beauties!

I wanted to get on here and share the products that I have been constantly reaching for this summer. Living in Houston with 90+ degree heat along with the insane humidity does not make it easy to keep your makeup from literally sliding off of your face BUT I have found a solution!

I start by washing and moisturizing my face, I have extremely dry skin. Then I use the IT Cosmetics CC cream 50 spf, not only does it help my skin but it also protects it from the sun which is always a plus. Then I add Tarte shapetape concealer and set my ENTIRE face with the Huda Beauty setting powder in the shade "banana bread". Once that has set I wipe off the excess add some bronzer, blush, highlight and spray with the Morphe setting mist. I bought the spray while I was in Vegas because I needed something in addition to the setting powder and it has been working like a dream!

Finish by adding some mascara or lashes if thats your jam, pop on some chapstick or your favorite gloss and you have an easy summer look. I know for some of you it may sound like a lot but I literally put my face together in less than 10 minutes. Let me know below if you would like a video!

Hello Everyone!

Hi Ladies! I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and tell you a little bit about my vision for this blog and our journey together. About two years ago I started my YouTube channel doing makeup tutorials because buying makeup and playing with it makes my heart happy. In between working full-time and going to school full-time/part-time in addition to being a wife and mother, all those duties seemed to take up most of my time so I let it go for a while but hope to be adding content soon there as well. While I wasn't filming and editing videos or actually teaching myself to edit videos I found myself on a self-development journey as well which isn't something I had thought about or considered before but as soon as I started I knew it was everything I never knew I needed. I don't know about you but I learn by reading or watching then doing so I came across a video by Rachel Hollis talking about mommy guilt. Surely if you're a mom you know exactly what I...

Motivation: Financial Series

Recently I have become more and more motivated about becoming financially free. It literally gives me the same excitement buying a new makeup palette used to give me. I would plan all of the looks I could create and what color combinations would be my new go-to, the options were endless. Now, I dream of the things I can completely pay off and what I can do with those freed up funds that used to go to that monthly bill.  With this newfound motivation came a lot of research and advice that I sought out. One of the tools that kept popping up was the cash envelope system so I got on Amazon and searched for weeks adding and removing different options as I considered how they would benefit my family and I. After all of my research I kept coming back to the cleaver fox envelops pictured below and found that what I really wanted was not only to be more mindful about my spending but more than that I wanted to be able to track patterns. Being able to see what I am budgeting vs...

Run Girl Run

Hi Friends! I've been working harder to incorporate running into my weekly fitness routine. What I have found is that the right shoe is KEY! Currently, I am running in Brooks I will link the ones I have below. Before now I've tried Nike, Adidas, Asics, Mizuno you name it I feel like I've tried it. On Running has recently been coming up on my searches but I don't know much about them. Have you tried them? Do you love them? Tell me everything! My current running schedule is 1-2 Peloton digital runs of about 20 minutes on a regular treadmill (I'm dying to purchase a Peloton Tread) and one run outdoors. I would love to run outside more but honestly running alone creeps me out and my husband can only come with me on the weekends. I would love to hear from you if you have a shoe recommendation or even advice on how to transition from a beginner to intermediate. Love ya, Sammi <3 Current shoe: https://www.academy.com/shop/pdp/brooks-womens-ricochet-le-...
