Turn Your Pantry Into A Sephora
"With her flawless skin and shiny hair, S.W. Basics Founder Adina Grigore looks a lot like one of those women who was born without a skin worry in the world. (Some people just don't get the breakout gene). Not so. In fact, growing up and well into her 20s, Grigore was plagued by constant breakouts, itchy, dry skin, and mysterious rashes. She was using a profusion of products (including a ton of medicated lotions and creams from her dermatologist), but things were mostly getting worse. With a background in holistic nutrition, she decided to put what she knew about food to the test on her skin. She threw out every single product she owned and started fresh, with only the ingredients in her kitchen. Olive oil became moisturizer, coconut oil turned into shaving cream, and apple cider vinegar doubled up as a toner and scalp rinse. It took less than 24 hours for her to notice a difference."

How to Style a Lob or a Bob
"There’s no way I could go one more day without posting this tutorial! I’ve had requests on here, on the gram, on pinterest, on my cell phone and in person for this tutorial and TODAY is the the day, y’all! Many have mentioned that they’ve been very inspired by all the bobs and lobs out there– so much that you went in for the chop. Problem is, looks great leaving the salon but you can’t mimic it at home, right? Let’s fix that! This is one of my favorite ways to style a lob or bob (I typically do it the same way for both) and I fully believe that you can do this! Don’t psych yourself out, just act cool. We’ve enlisted the help of one of the most beautiful beings we know, ALLIE MARIE EVANS. She’s hilarious and gorgeous and very smart so we thought we’d beg her to take a break from herYouTube channel to come help us out with this look. Here we guh!"

Brushes That Took My Makeup Application from ‘Urgh’ to ‘Ahhh’
"Without sounding too dramatic (though hear me out because this is going to sound a little ‘Drama Queen‘) the day I purchased my first MAC brush and graduated from the world of sponge applicators and scratchy mini brushes that come nestled inside a palette next to eyeshadow or blush, was the day that my makeup application changed. I can’t help but cringe when I see pictures of an evening where I attempted my first ever smokey eye with just a sponge tipped piece of plastic to guide me. I’ll spare you the photos. Now there are many brushes that I love, but there are seven in particular that when I invested in things changed. Let me give you the guided tour…"

The Affordable Skincare Routine
"I’m clearing out my beauty room before house renovations begin (don’t even ask why I’m going ahead with building work when I’m having a baby in four-months-and-one-week’s time!) and I keep discovering very interesting little boxes filled with skincare for various budgets. The one that most grabbed my attention was the “affordable skin care” box; bits and pieces that I’ve been putting aside over the last four or five years that have really impressed me despite the prices being extremely reasonable."

100 Beauty Blogging Prompts
"Beauty blogging can be an expensive business - well if you let it be. It can also be difficult to come up with new ideas for blog posts several times a week, or daily for that matter.

The Essential Makeup Brushes
By Lily Pebbles
"I confess, I am a brushaholic. Flawless makeup can definitely be achieved with just your fingers but there’s no denying the satisfaction that comes with blending out your makeup using a fresh, soft brush. So if I had to only pick a handful to recommend, my top picks let’s say, this is what I’d choose…"
