    I get questions about toners all the time. Thank y I get questions about toners all the time. Thank you @thayersnatural for sponsoring this post! The truth is that toners were originally created years ago when we used to use actual lye soap to wash our faces and needed a second product to bring the pH up from the basic pH of the soap. Now both cleansers and toners have come a long way. Toners are still used today as a way to absorb excess oil, hydrate and impart specific ingredients onto the cleansed face. There are so many out there… here is what to look for and how to use one! What to look for in a toner (and why I love the Thayers Facial Toner): ✅Alcohol-free ✅pH balanced ✅ Hydrating properties ✅ Soothing ingredients How to use: Apply Thayers Facial Toner to a cotton round and then to the skin after cleansing and before serums or moisturizers. If it’s daytime, follow with SPF! #Thayerspartner #Thayers

In fact, she says my hair color is one of the most requested photos she gets which is oddly flattering considering I actually have nothing to do with how it turns out 😂 For my locals: I see @lily_tookey_hair at @igksalons … I’ve been seeing Lily for a couple of years now and tell everyone I can about her 😂 . . . . . . #brunette #brunettebalayage #igkmiami #igksalon #brunettehair #brunettesofinstagram #beautybloggers #balayage #balayagehighlights #miamiblogger #miamibloggers #miamibeautyblogger #miamibeauty
    When it comes to caring for our skin, I am often a When it comes to caring for our skin, I am often asked for “systems” that can be used when we don’t have the knowledge or time to build a regimen from scratch. Skin care is not a one size fits all and in these cases it’s important to choose a system that will be gentle enough for even sensitive skin but will still offer protective and corrective benefits. One of my go to systems for just that is the @eltamdskincare Skin Recovery System. Find out more about why I love this system for myself, my husband and especially the skin care novice over on the blog! #sensitiveskin #sensitiveskincare #skintips101 #eltamdskincare #skinstore @skinstore

    I fully planned to get a proper bump pick yesterda I fully planned to get a proper bump pick yesterday… our last Holiday season just the 2 of us. Feels bittersweet (mostly very sweet). What a crazy journey to embark on. By this time next year between a few close girlfriends and close family that are also expecting we will have 5 (and the number is growing everyday) new souls to meet. I still feel like just a kid myself figuring out the ways of the world, but I’m excited to figure it out together 💕 Also I totally underestimated how great it is to let your post-thanksgiving feast belly just hang on out. 😂

    #paidpartner The answer to this question may surpr #paidpartner The answer to this question may surprise you! Patients ask me, “What is the right age to receive @BotoxCosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA)?” Dun, dun, dun... and the answer simply is, as long as you are 18+, there isn’t a specific age after that! In fact, it’s probably a different answer for everyone as genetics, expressions, and daily habits can all be contributing factors to the appearance of your moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines. If you’re wondering about this treatment, take advantage of National #BotoxCosmetic Day and make an appointment with a provider to discuss if this treatment is right for you. As a general rule of thumb, I recommend treatment when patients start to see more severe/deeper lines. If we’re being honest, I use BOTOX® Cosmetic myself and I still look like me, just temporarily with fewer lines! Learn more about BOTOX® Cosmetic Day at botoxcosmeticday.com. For full Product Information for BOTOX® Cosmetic including Boxed Warning and Medication Guide, see @BotoxCosmeticPI --- BOTOX® Cosmetic is FDA approved to temporarily make moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines look better in adults. Actual Patient results may vary. --- Talk to your doctor about BOTOX® Cosmetic and whether it’s right for you. There are risks with this product - The effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic may spread hours to weeks after injection causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems or muscle weakness can be a sign of a life-threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at the highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection-site pain, fatigue and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness. Don’t receive BOTOX® Cosmetic if there’s a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions (including ALS/Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis, or Lambert-Eaton syndrome), and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. BOTOX® Cosmetic is available by prescription only.
