🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 for Elsie Silver’s Flawless. If you told me a month ago when I bought this book that I’d fall in love with a cowboy, I’d laugh in your face. So, imagine my surprise (but not really) when I fell head over heels with another fictional character—Rhett Eaton. 😍 Then, there’s my sweet little Summer. Wise beyond her years, kind, and caring. Flawless was flawless to me. I enjoyed reading it so much.

🌟🌟🌟🌟 for #icebreaker by @hannahgraceauthor. I liked this book — it was cute, quick, and incredibly spicy. 🥵 I was ready to rate it three stars because of some things I didn’t like, but I really enjoyed the ending, and that’s what bumped the rating for me. I’m looking forward to reading Wildfire in the future. 🙃

I hated this book. The story was okay, but Evangeline’s naïveté was so annoying. Like, get it together, sis. I wanted to stop reading, but I couldn’t because I needed to know who did it. Which brings me to my hate of whodunits. It’s not for me. I don’t like it in movies, and I definitely don’t like it in books now. I didn’t like how the story was written like a fairy tale, although I get why it was. It read a little too poetic with the whodunit aspect, which confused me sometimes.

I did like Jacks, though, and I wish more were revealed about him in this book. I guess I’ll need to read the second and third books and the Caraval series to learn more. Ugh, I really don’t want to, but that ending is going to leave me reeling if I don’t satisfy it.

🌟🌟🌟🌟 for Lauren Asher’s The Fine Print (book 1 in the Dreamland Billionaires series). I finished reading this book late last night, and I enjoyed it a lot. The two-person POV, the humanness of the characters, and the quick chapters made it feel like I flew through reading the book. I’m looking forward to reading the next two books soon!

Beauty empties: I also just finished a can of my favorite dry shampoo, Batiste Bare Dry Shampoo. If you’re looking for something that’s comparable to Amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo, this. is. it.

#LTKbeauty

Beauty empties: I just finished another tube of my favorite sunscreen, Live Tinted Hueguard. This 3-in-1 sunscreen moisturizes, primes, and protects your skin. It has a peachy-orange tint that doesn’t leave a white cast.

#LTKbeauty

Morning skincare routine 🌅 Everything, except Live Tinted, can be found at the upcoming Sephora Sale! 🛍️✨💸

Good for people in their late 20s–30s.

Kate Somerville’s ExfoliKate cleanser and Belif’s Aqua Bomb moisturizer target oily skin and large pores.

Fenty Beauty’s Fat Water toner preps skin for your skincare routine, targets acne/acne scarring, and brightens dull/tired skin alongside Sephora Collection’s Vitamin C + E serum.

InnBeauty’s Bright & Tight eye cream brightens mild under-eye circles. I don’t have under-eye bags, so I can’t speak to the “tight” properties.

Live Tinted Hueguard protects the skin from UVA/UVB rays. It also moisturizes and primes the skin for makeup. ALWAYS USE SUNSCREEN WITH 30 SPF+.

Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask and FutureWise Slug Balm are helping me replenish and maintain the moisture in my — normally oily — skin, which has been dry and crusty our entire California trip. I use Jet Lag mask as a moisturizer day and night, and at night, I layer Slug Balm over my moisturizer for extra moisture. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I miss my oily skin so much, and I cant wait to return home to Hawaiʻi so my skin can feel good again.

Soft-matte makeup look. 😮‍💨 The MAC Cosmetics Hyper Real Serumizer is the real deal when trying to achieve this trending makeup look. It prepped and smoothed my skin even though I have lots of texture due to adult acne and acne scarring right now. 🤌🏽 I linked all the makeup products I used below. Check my previous post for the skincare I used.

#LTKfindsunder50 #LTKfindsunder100 #LTKbeauty

I just applied this MAC Hyper Real Serumizer to my skin before makeup, and my skin looks and feels so smooth even though I have texture from acne scarring right now. Like, what is this sorcery? I love it!

I bought the new Summer Fridays Rich Cushion Cream, and — I can’t believe I’m saying this — it is a great cream for oily skin. I try to stay away from thicker creams with my oily skin, but this one is fluffy, like merengue, and it doesn’t clog my pores.

I only use it at night for extra hydration, especially since I sleep with the air conditioner on, but I can see myself using it during the day when it gets cooler. It’s also a great moisturizer to use on top of my gentle retinol.

Great for all skin types, fine lines and wrinkles, dryness, and loss of firmness and elasticity.

I bought this short sleeve shirt dress from Old Navy last week, and I love it a lot. It’s true to size and super roomy. And it has pockets. Perfect for hot summer days like today! I know you can’t see it, but the length comes below my knees (I’m 5’2”). I’m also wearing my white Vans Old Skool platforms with it. SUPER CUTE! There’s a 40% online sale at Old Navy (50% for cardholders, ends 8/21).

I treated myself to some new workout shoes! 🧡 These are the Nike Women’s In-Season TR 13 PRM in size 8. This versatile shoe is perfect for strength training, HIIT, and cardio. It comes in eight different color ways; mine is white / guava ice / ember glow. It has watercolor-like floral print and subtle reds and yellows make this color way perfect for fall. I can’t wait to wear them!

SELF-TANNING FAVES! +Lux Unfiltered is my go-to for self-tanning. I linked a handful of my fave products I use to get that bronzed summer skin.

Featured products:
+Lux Unfiltered No. 32
+ Lux Unfiltered No. 36

#LTKbeauty #LTKFind

I just received my +Lux Unfiltered order in the mail! I restocked the No 24 Reviving Hand Cream (way better than Aesop) and the No 32 Hydrating Self-Tanning Cream. New products I bought are the No 12 Bronzing Face Drops and the No 35 Supernatural Tanning Mousse.

WHAT I BOUGHT AT THE SEPHORA SALE 🛍️ The next thing I bought is the Merit Flush Balm Cream Blush in the colors Persimmon and Beverly Hills. It’s my first time trying these blushes from Merit. I haven’t tried them on with makeup yet, but I love the colors I bought. They look better in person than they do online.

WHAT I BOUGHT AT THE SEPHORA SALE 🛍️ I finally bought the Merit Instant Glow Serum! It’s been sold out at my local Sephora since I learned about it a month ago.

This oil-based serum is supposed to give you an “instant” glow (and it does!). I used this serum overnight and this morning and everyone at work was complimenting my skin because it looked glowy. ✨

Mai poina (“don’t forget” in Hawaiian), Sephora Collection is 30% throughout the sale, which ends on April 28, 2023.

WHAT I BOUGHT AT THE SEPHORA SALE 🛍️ The next thing I restocked is the Lawless Forget the Filler Lip Plumping Overnight Lip Mask in Cherry Vanilla. 🍒 I looove this lip mask because it plumps your lips without over plumping. I use this lip mask every night and it makes my lips look and feel juicy, moisturized, and smooth.

WHAT I BOUGHT AT THE SEPHORA SALE 🛍️ The first thing I restocked are these Sephora Collection cucumber eye masks. They are my fave to prep my skin for photos or videos, and I also like to pack them in my travel bag to keep the thin skin under my eyes hydrated and refreshed.

The Fenty Skin butta drop whipped oil body cream is my fave body cream for hydrated skin. 💦 Their formula is made with the most hydrating oils but it doesn’t leave you feeling oily. Instead, your skin feels baby soft and hydrated. Their limited edition Christmas and Valentine’s Day body creams smell amazing and have body shinmer in it to give you that healthy glow. ✨ A must-have in my skincare routine!

I bought an ergonomic mouse because of some pain I have in my thumb, elbow, and shoulder from multiple things, like being on the computer and my phone to crocheting and gaming for long periods. I decided to try the Logitech Lift, a vertical ergonomic mouse for small/medium-sized hands. I just got it today, so I’ll let you know how I like it in a couple of weeks.

I’m doing an on-camera video shoot for work today, so I’m using these under-eye masks to help hydrate and prep my skin to look less like I slept on my face all night. 🧟‍♀️ 🧖🏽‍♀️ ✨

Today, I’m using the Sephora Collection Cucumber Eye Masks, but my other favorite is Wonder Beauty Baggage Claim Eye Masks (linked below too).

PRO TIP: The SC eye masks are super affordable ($3.50), and they come in different scents and strengths. I like to buy them in bulk, so I always have one in stock when I need it.

NEW YEAR’S EVE OUTFIT IDEA 💃🏽🪩🎆 I wore this chic black, white, and silver outfit to Christmas mass, and I think it would make a cute New Year’s Eve outfit too!

I don’t wear black to ring in the New Year because an old Filipino superstition I grew up with said it’s bad luck. But if you don’t believe in silly things like superstitions, this outfit would be so cute! You could even pair it with a long coat if you live in a colder area. 🧥

OUTFIT DETAILS
Top: Old Navy
Pants: Target
Shoes: Target

black long sleeve ribbed turtleneck, cream high-rose faux leather tapered ankle pants, basil rhinestone heels, a new day
