Motivational Monday! (x2) ~ 7/28/14

Hey guys!

I completely flaked on Motivational Monday last week due to just getting back from vacationing in Newport, RI with my love to celebrate our 4th anniversary together. But as always, here's a double dose to make up for it!

Enjoy!!

I saw this and LOVED it. It's so true!

Loved this one too! Couldn't be more true.

Remember to have a positive day! :)

Product Review: Nourish Organic Face Lotion

Hey guys!

Today I'm going to be reviewing the Nourish Organic Lightweight Moisturizing Face Lotion. I received a 0.5oz sample in my January 2014 Ipsy Glam Bag. This product retails for $21.99 for a 1.7oz bottle, which can be found on their website HERE.

I was excited to try this moisturizer since I was running low on my favorite moisturizer by Skintelligence and wasn't re-ordering it until the end of the month. However, my excitement quickly started to end upon the first use.

Not only is it a greasy feeling, extremely light moisturizer, it smells horrible (like a really weird carrot/orange scent) and the smell lingers after application. The name holds true to it being a lightweight moisturizer, I'll give it that. But it has a greasy texture to it, which leaves the skin looking and feeling shiny and slippery. But honestly, even if it didn't perform that way, the smell is still enough for me not to want to use it.

I also disliked that the moisturizer made my breakout after just a couple days of using it. I continued to try using it to see if my skin would get used to it and it didn't. The breakouts kept coming, even with using my acne lotion, which to me means that this moisturizer is just not right for me.

In the end, I gave it a go with high hopes and it just didn't work out for me. Results obviously will vary from person to person, but I personally can't wait to get my favorite moisturizer refilled in a couple weeks. It's also just about the same price as the one I already love, so why switch?

Good luck if you're going to try it and thanks so much for reading this review! xoxo

Motivational Monday (x2!) ~ 7/14/14

Hey guys!

Last week was literally the most stressful and non-stop week I've had in a LONG time. My apologies for not posting Motivational Monday last week. But you know what that means - you get TWO awesome quotes today! Enjoy!!

Very true!!

A good thing to remember...if your first plan ends up not working out, you still have 25 tries!

Remember to have a positive day! :)
